Chapter Four:
"Jenna has LOST It"
Septimus and Jenna finally made it in the castle. After being greeted by six other ghosts in the castle.
"Do NOT ENTER!" A light ghost said. It was hard to make out what the ghost looked like but it had a ponytail and was wearing torn up clothes. His eyes were just pale white and he was wearing a frown.
"We are going to have to!" Jenna said. "Septimus has to see what that dreadful noise is."
"You SILLY GIRL. No ONE GOES past THAT DOOR. Or FACE YOUR doom!" the ghost said.
Septimus didn't want to but he decided to Pass Through the ghost to get to the other side.
"Sorry." He said and walked, with Jenna behind. A door was floating right in front of them.
"What's wrong with this picture?" Jenna asked.
There is no picture to be wronged with, Princess Jenna. The door spoke.
Septimus looked behind the door and nothing was there just another look-alike side from the front side.
"Should we open it?" Jenna asked looking at the doors features. The door looked like solid gold with a dash of silver and a diamond on the knob.
Open should you? Go ahead… the door spoke.
"I don't think we should, Jenna." Septimus said backing away from the hypnotizing door.
"But,…it's so beautiful. Jenna lightly touched the door. She was so amazed with it.
The only beautiful thing I see present is you, Princess Jenna.
"Jenna. Let's go." Septimus said grabbing Jenna's hand but she didn't budge. She was still feeling the diamond and gold features of the brilliant door.
"No. Can't we stay Septimus! Don't you like how it comments me?" Jenna said still looking at the door.
Was there something Magykal about this door?
"Jenna. Don't make me-"
"Septimus?" Silas walked in. "What are you doing here?"
"I-" Septimus looked at Jenna.
Silas looked at Jenna who was still stroking the door. Silas's eyes widend and he walked over to Jenna. "Jenna?"
"Isn't it lovely?" Jenna said.
The only lovely thing is you, Princess Jenna.
"My word, a Magykal Door. Haven't seen these since I was young." Silas said.
You still look quiet young, Silas.
"Oh, why thank you." Silas smiled, but frowned instantly as Jenna reached for the knob. Silas thought quick and picked up the enchanted princess.
Don't go my sweet sweet Jenna.
"Let me down!" Jenna screamed.
"I don't think so." Silas said.

Bretta and Merrin made there way to a shop that said, "BUY ME, SELL ME"
"What an interesting store name!" Bretta said as they both entered the shop. The shop reaked off the smell garlic.
"Welcome to Buy me, sell me. What do you want?" the owner mumbled.
"How rude! Do you know-" Bretta has been stopped by Merrin.
"We need a house." Merrin said.
"Aren't yer two a little young?" someone in the back of the shop walked up. "Ernie at your service and we a don't sell to wittle babies. Out with you!" Ernie spat.
"How dare you! For your information, Mr. Pirate PETE! I'm sixteen years old!" Bretta snapped.
"Ohs reallys?" Ernie asked. "Where ya come from girl?"
"From the…GoodLands of Mosteus Pye!" Bretta spat back. "AND, my name is Bretta! Not, GIRL!"
"You've got some anger issues, love." Ernie said.
"Oh, go sweep the floors or something you piece of garbage!" Bretta snarled. She turned around to see the store clerk still waiting for a answer. "Oh. As my fiancé said, a house for the both of us."
"Fiancé!" Merrin looked shocked.
"Did I say fiance? I meant, we're just a couple…" Bretta smiled.
"Okay. There is one available in the Ramblings." the store clerk said gloomily.
"The Ramblings? Are you serious? I want one like the palace but smaller! Enough for FOUR people." Bretta complained.
"Well there is a house that is big enough…it's next to the palace…sord of."
"Oh really? Sounds nice. We'll take it. Right, Eric?" Bretta said.
"Yeah, whatever." Merrin said.
"Also before I leave, do you know where I can get some books about Magyk?"
"I have a ton in the back."
"I'll take five of the best that you have!" Bretta smiled.
"Oh god!" Merrin rolled his eyes.

"What do you think is wrong with her?" Septimus asked.
"I WANT to see the door again!" Jenna wailed.
"I don't know." Silas said. "I can't put my finger on it…but doors like that bring back memories.
"I'll go get Marcia." Septimus was off before he could say "Marcia" correctly.
"Great…" Silas sneered.
"Father, please! Just one more minute. I swear.
I swear my daughter is mad. Silas thought. What will we do with her?
Not "we" Silas. "I".
