Cri woke the next morning early. It was Saturday and, like usual, Meri and
Cri were going for a walk. She slipped the satin collar her mother gave
her, onto Gemini and brought her to breakfast.
When she got there, she found Meri eating bit of toast.
"Morning Meri." Cri said.
"Ready for our walk?" Meri asked handing Cri a small stack of toast.
They headed for the courtyard and then to the lake. As they walked, she
told Meri all about the notebook.
"It might be dangerous Cri. Lets take it to Professor Kolfero." Meri
told her. She agreed and they went back to get it. She got the notebook and
they headed for Kolfero's office.
"Good Morning Professor. I have a question." Cri told Kolfero all
about the notebook and he smiled.
"Ah. Good." He said with a smile. He took the notebook and pen and
scribbled the word "Kolfero" on the tab. Nothing happened. Not only that,
the ink was not deep purple any more but a dark blue.
"It doesn't seem to like me. Please show me Cri." He said handing the
pen and notebook to her.
She wrote the word "Kolfero" on the tab and waited. The ink was deep purple again. The ink soaked in again and crimson ink rose.
"Good Morning Cristantinan. Kolfero is the teacher who sits right in front of you at this very moment. He tried to write on me."
Cri laughed. "See professor. I wasn't lying. She won't tell me what she is." Cri told him. "It seems to be a journal that will only respond to you. She may hold the key to life itself. You just need to figure out who she is and what her secret is." Kolfero said with a sigh. They left his office and went to the Common Room.
"Meriximus" Cri wrote.
"He's a really good friend of yours." It wrote back.
"Artemis" Cri wrote.
"Oh. Beware." It responded.
"What do you mean beware?" Cri asked.
"Ask Dumbledoor. Or make Meri read the book he got for Christmas." It wrote.
"How do you know these things?" Cri asked.
'I'm very bored you know." It said, adding a smiley face at the end of its writing.
"Oh and Snape will give you a pop quiz on Wednesday, just to give you heads up." It wrote. Cri shut the notebook and sat back in her chair. "What was this thing?" She thought.
