This was the scariest corridor Theo had seen in his entire life. And here he was, walking down it all by himself. Even though he was totally used to living in the dungeons and coping with it's dark and gloominess, this was a whole other level of gloom. Particularly because at the end of this corridor, was Professor Lafay.

Theo had ants in his pants because he REALLY needed to pee.

Which totally didn't help matters at all.

He took a deep breath, and knocked on the office door after helping West with the trunks like she had asked him to do. He wasn't sure WHY he was summoned to her office, though? All he did was do his homework.
