"Midnight you can't help him now. This is no time for heroics, we can't afford to losse you as well."
"Besides if Zeytan is still alive his best chance for survival is for us to leave him, That thigs after you me and Corlius not him. It will ignore him and come strait after us."
*Pulls Midnight towards The forn door with The Assasin in hot pursuit.*

*Midnight follows Tom with Coriolis and Zeph just ahead of them. They hear another thud as the Assasin hits the door. They continue running for several minutes. With the sound of the Assasin not fading into the distance.*

*Tom looks back and see's The Assasin Break down the front Door. As they near the cross roads he has an idea.* "STOP Everyone into the bushes, get down & stay down till I say so." *The group takes toms advise and dives into the bushes. Tom casts a spell and hides as well. Soon enough the Assasin comes in to view it stops at the cross roads. It appers to be looking at something on the grouns then it takes off down the right hand path leading it well away from The Group.* *After about 5 mins the group reamreg.* "Thats put him on the wrong path. Least from the moment." [ModNote: The Assassin is next seen here.]

*Midnight slowly gets up. As do the others and they gather quietly in the middle of the cross roads.*
Well I don't want to stop here. Let's keep moving and quickly.
*Midnight heads in the opposite direction followed by the others walking at a fast pace.*
*After about 15minutes a vision comes to Midnight a flash back. She's looking at the book she was reading in the spirit-walk. She reads a couple of lines and then the image begins to fade as something begins to move around in her bag. Taking the bag off her shoulder she looks into it......*

*Midnight puts her uninjured hand in and then the other and getly takes him out.*
What are you doing in there?!?!?!
*Malark blows a couple more white bubbles at her.*
Sorry Malark I don't know what your bubble colours mean. Not all of them anyway.
*To Tom and Zeph.*
Do either of you two now what he's saying.*
I'm taking a guess at I'm scared but may be wrong.
*Midnight carries on walking begins to stroke Marlark gently while thinking about the flashback and awaits a reply from either of the mages.*

. A Yo -Yo
. A Bag Of Jelly Babies
. A Box Of Fireworks
. A Bottle of some unknow liqued
. A Bar Of Gold
. A ? Mark shaped Pendant
. A Scroll that reads Dr. William .H. Oval
"Ahhhh ha here it is"
*Tom pulls out a small phrase book entitled "Understanding Mire- Creature for beginers." He stuffs the other bric a brac back in his pockest and flicks threw a few pages till he finds the section on Mire-Crabs.*
"He is saying. "I'm lost & Scared."

*Coriolis looks at the mire crab. The thing was slow and daft. He didn't see it causing anything but trouble but with Zeytan no longer around he knew they had no choice. Rhiannon would make his life a misery if he said no.*
Yes he can come. Just make sure he doesn't get into any trouble. If he does your the one to get him out of it.
*Coriolis felt somewhat better now that they were out of the school. He began to walk slightly ahead of the others. Putting as much distance between him and the Alzan creature and the Assasin as he could.*

Oh dear, oh dear....
*Zeph quietly worries about Zeytan, but there is little he can do*
I hope he took one of those musical notes... if he's alive... he can call for help...
*Diana flies down to Malark and tries to comfort him. There seems to be some similarity between the shimmering interplay of colour on her wings and Malark's bubbles. Hopefully it will soothe the troubled Mire-crab*
*Zeph brightens*
I'm sure Zeytan is just spiffin! Anyway, good escape there wot! Question is... where shall we head now?
The Chaos Magic suite is on the far edge of the school, we should be safe behind the shieldin' and it wasn't attacked by the Assasin.... I could even help Midnight with her problem...
Or we could follow it... but I think we should come up with a plan...
O'course, we could just go into town too....

*Midnight stops abruptly.*
Tom will you take hold of Malark and Diana please.?
*Tom nods and holds out his hands and Midnight passes them over gently.*
Coriolis will you come here a minute I want to show you something.
*Coriolis slowly turns round and saunters back to the group.*
Before we make any plans do you reconise these lines at all??
*Midnight begins to draw in the dirt two sentances in old Watcher's Lore.*
There from a book I was reading on the night of the Hunt vote. I just don't know what it says. I wasn't supposed to be reading the book as it was only meant to be shown to those who passed the Hunt and went on to be Watchers in the official name.

*With Malark and Diana now in his hands he turns to Zeph.* "My dear Chap. The school is the last place we want to go. Once that abomination realises its following a flase trail it will double back and head back there if we go back we'll be caught again." "Nor do we want to follow it. We need to confrount that thing on our own terms when the time is right . Plus for the moment we are safe. It will inevitably track us down again but for now we can recopuerate." *Quiater so Malark dosne't hear.* "Don't supose you have heard out from Zeytan by way of those Magic notes? " "I hope he's alright. I meen if he didn't get into that room in time........................" "He put himself at risk to save us you know. He went back to close that door to delay The Assasin. and it may have cost him his life." "He was a philosipher and teacher not a warrior. Well I setal his acount with That Abomination that i pledge."

*With a smile Coriolis bends down and takes a closer look at the writing then frowns. He could make out letters but that was it.*
Sorry Rhiannon but I don't. I didn't get taught that due to what happened.
*Standing back up and looking to Zeph.*
For once I agree with him. It's far to risky for anything other than going onto some where else.

Fair enough, understood....
Um... does this mean that we're going into town?
*Zeph looks rather uncomfortable.*
It's just... I think Eddie... sorry Sir Edmund... might be there, and I really don't want a family reunion...
