Xana hurried into the student gardens and saw Diabolica, Apedemak and Prefect Trelawney standing together. She was late and hoped Apedemak wouldn't be too upset about that... and as she approached them she wondered what this was all about, anyway.

She braced herself as she approached; she hadn't spoken to Prefect Trelawney since their altercation and she knew the girl was unlikely to be pleasant to her. Not that that was anything new.

"Hello... I'm sorry I'm late; Apedemak, you wished to see me?" Xana said, smiling gently and nodding in greeting at the group.
