BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!... BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!... BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!... BEEP! BEEP! BEE-"

"PROFESSOR! ANSWER THE DAMN CALL!" roared Helen's voice from over the intercom.

Justin, who was sat alone in his cold office, spun around on his grand wooden chair and stared at the abraca-doodler on the far wall. It shone brightly, reflecting various colours around the dimly lit office. Justin concentrated as he read the writing on the wide screen.

'Chancellor Rootie Tootietootie calling…'

"Great," sighed Justin as he waved his wand around to answer the call. In a quick flash, Rootie Tootie appeared on the screen wearing his aging blue tattered velvet cloak. He sat in his plain beige office while staring at Justin intently. Justin cleared his throat to fill the awkward silence and smiled, hoping to get some response but instead he was met with more silence. "Umm hi Chancellor Rootie Tootietootie. How are you?"

"How am I?" he exclaimed dramatically, "how do you think?"

"I don't know, that's why I asked," chuckled Justin to himself.

"I take it you haven't been told then?" Tootietootie slowly shook his head with disappointment, filling Justin with panic.

"Told what?" Justin asked hesitantly.

"We received another threat but this time it warned that whoever is doing this is planning on taking direct action by either seriously hurting or even killing residents of the wizard world. So, seems you have been useless in this situation so far, I decided to get our investigators to do some work. Anyway, they've discovered where the threats are coming from. The threats are from the angels of darkness. Apparently, they have a new leader, Gorog's sister Mara. Who also happens to be the mother of our old friend Dominic."

"Why didn't you tell me all of this sooner?"

"Well," Tootietootie began, "according to the others you've been bragging about being so busy and having a lot on lately I didn't think you'd have time to deal with it. Or the patience to listen to me or pretend to even care."

"Of course, I care!" Yelled Justin, "and I have not been bragging about having a lot on! Yes, I have been busy lately and had stuff to deal with but I would always put my school first!"

"I think it's obvious that isn't true professor."

Justin paused. He looked down at his desk as he could feel Tootietootie's eyes watching upon him, burning his skin as he felt himself become flushed with nerves. After a moment a loud buzz came from Justin's intercom, Justin looked up only to see Tootietootie still looking at him disapprovingly.

"I have to go," Justin told him, "I'll call you later and we'll discuss this more then. Hopefully after that we can arrange a meeting to settle this before anyone is hurt."

Tootietootie nodded in silence before clicking his fingers and disappearing, leaving the screen on the abraca-doodler blank.

Justin turned to the intercom and sighed, "Yes Helen?"

"Juliet and her daughter are here to see you," she told him happily.

"Send them in," he ordered her, pressing the button on the intercom to hang up on the call.

Slowly the door opened and in walked Juliet, closely followed by Ana who stood awkwardly at the door.

Juliet looked as if she was beaming with happiness. Her face glowed with joy as her ruby cheeks illuminated on her pale face. Straight away she engulfed Justin in a tight hug, which he reluctantly returned.

"Listen, I'm sorry," said Juliet pulling out of the hug. "I should have talked to you about it all, and I will. Its just-"

"Hey," Justin interrupted, "it's okay, we'll talk later." He then gestured to Ana who was stood in the corner admiring the piles of books stacked on the shelves that lay against the wall.

Juliet nodded, "So we were thinking, if you'd like to come for dinner with us?"

Justin looked at her in surprise, "Me?" He asked.

"Well who else do you think?" scoffed Ana as she flicked through the pages of an old book.

"I just thought it would be nice if you two got to know each other properly," Juliet suggested.

Justin looked at the clock nervously, "umm, yeah." He nodded, "I umm, just need to finish some work first."

"Okay," Juliet smiled at him comforting, "we'll just go outsi-"

"NO!" yelled Justin, throwing himself in front of Juliet, "you can both wait in here!"

"Okay?" laughed Juliet, "if we really need to."

"Yeah," he sighed looking back up at the clock, "you really do."


"Alex you're going the wrong way!" shouted Mason as he followed Alex up the school hallway.

Alex rapidly pushed her way past the small group of Wiztech students that were stood in her way and quickly ran further down the hall. "I know where I'm going!" She insisted.

"Alex love, I seen a sign saying the library was in the other direction," Mason told her as he approached his girlfriend, pointing to the large sign behind them.

"Mason, I know were we're going. This is a short cut." She smiled at him, hoping her was persuaded by the lie he had just been told.

Mason nodded slowly, "okay, I'll trust you know where you're going. But can I ask, why do you want to do research on hybrid children now? Neave's only six weeks old, we've got plenty of time before we have to start worrying about her powers."

"Well," Alex hesitated thinking of an excuse, "you can't be too prepared. Now come on!" she ordered as she dragged him down the hall.

"I'm surprised you even went to the library when you were a pupil here," Joked Mason as he laughed at Alex, who was focusing on dragging Mason along with her as she walked quickly.

"I didn't," Alex admitted, "I'm just good at finding shortcuts."

"Alex, slow down!" Said Mason dragging his heels.

"No! We need to go its important!"

Mason stopped in his tracks and stared angrily at Alex, "right, somethings going on here."

"What? No!" insisted Alex.

"Alex, I know you too well." He yelled, "tell me what you're up to!"

Alex froze as she heard the loud clunk of heels making their way up the corridor. She turned and spotted Helen approaching, carrying a large pile of paper work. Alex panicked at the thought of getting caught and her plan being ruined. So, when she looked around and spotted a janitor's closet right behind were Mason was stood, she did the first thing that came in to her head.

Quickly, she pushed herself up against Mason, slamming him to the wall and aggressively started kissing his lips.

Mason fought desperately to get Alex off of him, "what are you doing?" he asked once he had freed himself from Alex's grip.

Alex slowly brushed herself past Mason and opened the closet door, "I thought we could make a detour."

Mason smirked at Alex as he walked in to the closet, pulling her in with him before kissing her passionately on the lips and slamming the door behind him.


"Justin, how long do we have too wait?" asked Juliet as she paced around Justin's office. "you're not even doing any work."

Justin sat at his large desk and suddenly began to shuffle some of the piles of paper work that lay around him. He smiled widely at Juliet who watched him suspiciously.

"We have been in here for over an hour," Ana pointed out as she watched the hands on the large clock continuously move around the clock face.

"We can go soon," Justin told them, emerging from his office chair. "We just need to wait a little longer."

"Well, sorry," said Ana heading towards the door, "I need to go and use the loo. I'll be back in a minute."

"No Ana wait!" called Justin after her.


Mason began to fix himself up as he walked out of the janitor's closet, pulling his shirt down and running his fingers through his hair. Alex soon followed after him, "wait Mason!" She called after him, quickly tying her hair up in a pony tail as she ran. She soon stopped in front of him and ran her hands seductively across his chest.

"Why don't we head back to that closet, mister?"

Mason shook his head, "Alex love, we've been in there for over an hour. What if one of the pupils walk in? If you want to do that type of stuff we might as well go home."

"What no! You can't leave yet!"

"Well, let's go the library then. Did you say it was up here? So, I'll have to go past Justin's office?"

"Justin's office?" Alex's eyes widened in shock as her jaw hit the floor. "What no, Mason you can't go up there yet?"

But it was too late, Mason was already making his way up to the office. Alex froze in shock as she couldn't think of an excuse to keep him away until she heard an announcement over the speaker, which would be Justin's signal to her that something had gone wrong with their plan. "The Griffin has escaped the jar, I repeat, the Griffin has escaped the jar!"

Alex immediately raced after Mason, running faster than she probably ever had in her life. However, she came to a complete stop when he saw the door on Justin's office open and a young girl step out.

"Oh no," sighed Alex as she accepted defeat.

The young girl looked like she was in her teens. She had beautiful flowing thick brown hair and crystal white skin. Her pink plump lips immediately stood out next to her ruby coloured cheeks. She wore a pink short length skater dress and carried a matching pink purse. Alex's heart dropped when she heard Justin call.

"Anastasia, wait a second!"

That was when Mason saw her. In that second his world came to a complete stop. Everything around him went numb, he could feel nothing except the rapid heart beats coming within his chest, deafening his ears with each fast pump it gave. He looked at her in awe, unable to accept what as happening. And that was when Ana saw him. She stopped and stared at the man as he watched her with interest.

It was not until Juliet came in to the hall and called out, "Mason! Why are you here?" That Ana knew who he was.

Her head began to swirl as the butterflies in her stomach fluttered around uncontrollably. She tried to swallow, but her mouth had gone so dry she wasn't even able to speak. Mason also stood in silence, not knowing what to say or do next. Alex, Justin and Juliet all watched in worry. Justin shook his head at Alex while guilt filled him, he couldn't help but think that this was a bad idea. Even Alex had to admit this may have not been the best plan she had come up with.

But then suddenly, after long moments of complete silence Mason and Anastasia ran in to each other and engulfed themselves within each other's arms. Immediately, they both began sobbing in to each other's shoulder as they continued to hug tightly. Mason softly caressed Ana's soft smooth hair as he planted kisses on top of her head.

"I'm so sorry," he whispered to her, "I'm so, so sorry. I promise I've never stopped loving you."

"I love you too," Ana cried as she continued to hug her dad.

The others stood and watched them as smiles began to appear on their faces. Tears began to fill Alex's eyes as she was filled with joy. She couldn't be happier for Mason, but she also couldn't help but notice the scowl that took over Juliet's face.

"Well," Justin began, causing Mason and Ana to break up their hug, "I think maybe it's time you too got to know each other."


Hello! Sorry usually I like to leave an authors note at the end of my stories, but I need your help...
