OK I have the next chapterrrrrr............

Chapter Twenty-Six

Three hours after Salazar had stormed off, Helga had finally recovered. And she was mad. She kept it from the others, but it was there, bubbling inside of her. She decided that when Salazar came back, he was going to get shouted at like never before!

Rowena gazed out the window at the rain. She was uncharacteristically quiet. She was beginning to feel anxious. It had been three hours and he still wasn't back. She knew that he was probably all right, but what if they couldn't make ends meet? The school would be open soon and they could hardly run it with one of the heads in a hissy fit.

Godric looked away from the two girls sitting quietly on opposite ends of the room. Instead, he read the letter he had recieved from someone anonymous that morning. He couldn't make heads nor tails of it. It was only one sentence.

The night is darkest just before the dawn.

He didn't think it was simply someone advising him of the patterns of night and day. There must be more to it than that. So he puzzled.

Salazar glared at the frog. The frog glared back. He folded his arms. The frog gave an obstinate croak. It was sitting right in front of the doorway. So he couldn't get out. Every time he tried to step over it, it would jump up and hit him in a very uncomfortable area. So he couldn't do that either. Angrily, he aimed a kick at it. It jumped out of the way with a reproachful squelch. Salazar seized his chance and rushed through the door.

The shadowy figure squinted through the rain at the castle. This was his destination. He glanced up at the full moon and his upper lip curled with contempt. He waved his wand, muttering something unintelligible, and the moon was all of a sudden extinguished, leaving the night blacker than ink. "The night is darkest just before the dawn," he muttered to himself.

Godric looked up as all the light went out. even the moon and the stars. "The night is darkest just before the dawn!" he said aloud. It all made sense now.

The door knocker sounded, three loud booms.

BOOM. BOOM. BOOM.


So what do you think?
