Silence in the Halls

Chapter Five~

Brijall walked swiftly to the Hospital Wing, her eyes scanning open classrooms for Melody, her older (and adopted) sister. She found her in McGonagall's class. Brijall stood in the doorway and waited to be noticed by McGonagall.

"Brijall, did you need something?" the Professor asked.

Brijall nodded and wrote in the air with her wand-tip, leaving smokey letters: "Melody, please."

Professor McGonagall nodded and Melody entered the corridor, asking, "What's up, Brij? Mum have the baby?"

Brijall shook her head and wrote in the air again: "There was am accident in Potions. I can't hear or speak a word, Mel."
