Ok, I know I've been jumping around so as a heads up, this is back to Paige and Drew in the hall so no one is lost. My chapters have been short but now I should be getting them up quicker for awhile…I hope.


The footsteps were almost upon them, echoing through the halls eerily. Paige had already decided that there were too many to be any of their friends returning with help. She started searching for her wand and was relieved to find she had remembered to but it in her pocket. So there they sat and waited for what seemed like an eternity. They heard no voices, only footsteps and the beating of their hearts which seemed to be in their throats.

Then they came around the same corner they had ran around not long ago with their black, billowing robes, their faces hidden behind masks. Time seemed to be in slow motion. Seeing them, Paige remembered an article she read that morning in the Daily Prophet about Death eaters resurfacing. It was as she was looking at the picture that was with it, but here it was dangerous.

Then they stopped, there were only three of them, and raised their wands. Paige took hers out, although she didn't know any spells, she thought she could at least try. Drew went to grab his wand and realized with horror that it was in his robes on his teacher. Paige saw his head snap to look and McGonagol and then got up and stood in front of Drew as he scrambled to get his wand out.

The Death eaters sent spell at them. There voices were so cold, and inhuman sounding that it sent chills down their spines. One very well aimed spell was headed straight for her chest. She watched it, time still going so slow. She watched it come closer and closer but she couldn't move, she couldn't feel. The spell hit it's mark, time caught up. She hit the floor hard. Drew finally got his wand out as Paige hit the floor. The last thing she saw that night was his face in shock as another spell in brilliant color was heading for him next.


I'm hoping this is a little longer but I don't think it's half bad…and a loverly cliffy too! So we all know I like this chapter, but I want to know what YOU think. Please leave your review at the sound of the beep…..

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
