~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. Kazmi’s words echoed in his mind and now that the opportunity for the great, big reveal to be done earlier had presented itself, Jude was starting to feel more relaxed about possibly exploring the area. Relaxed but not completely lax about being vigilant. He took steps forward, still very much carrying a strong grip on his wand, until he was standing in the heat. GOSH! It felt as though his skin was baking already! Were those beads of sweat already popping up on his forehead? Yes, they were.
Jude looked out in the distance, squinting as he did so. So far, everything was quiet and he took this as a good sign. Now he was going to see if he was indeed correct in surmising that this weird place was situated within the School and didn’t lead anywhere else.
But maybe he wouldn’t explore for a lengthy period of time? He didn’t exactly want to be cooked out here. Jude looked over his shoulder to see if anyone else had followed before he headed off. |
