Chapter 1
Underwater Castle
Persephone sighed as she looked out to sea. They were riding on a ship out to the middle of nowhere, or as so she thought.
The waves looked soft and calm. The sun beamed down overhead and made her feel tired. She didn't see the point of them riding a boat out to the middle of nowhere. Just while she was thinking this, Timothy came over to her. His arms were folded and he looked furious. Cassidy was chasing after him and Melissa tagged along, shaking her head sadly.
"I know why we are out in the middle of nowhere," said Timothy. "That's because our school is underwater!"
"That is ridiculous how on earth can a castle be underwater!" Cassidy snapped.
"You haven't read Saberhagen! A History, yet have you?" Timothy asked. Cassidy sighed.
"Well maybe if you had you'd know Saberhagen was underwater!!! Persephone, please tell her it's underwater, you know almost everything about Saberhagen!" Timothy said.
"Sorry to burst your bubble Cassie, but Saberhagen is underwater. It's in a dome that is bewitched from the inside to look like the sky on land."
"Attention all students, please return to your cabins under the hull of the ship and prepare for dunking," said a voice. Cassidy's stomach lurched.
"Dunking?" she said loudly. Persephone grabbed her arm as the four of them ran over to a trap door and lifted it. Down inside the door was a staircase leading to the cabins.
When everyone was beneath the hull of the ship, they heard a dull clunking noise as titanium plates came out from everywhere and started covering every inch of the ship, even the portholes.
"Three, two, one!" said the voice and they were dunked. The titanium covering the portholes moved so you could see outside them. There were fish everywhere.
"I don't see anything," Cassidy said. Timothy sighed.
"The castle dome is 3 kilometres below sea level, and it is going to be awhile before we get there," said Timothy. "It's not going to pop up out of nowhere."
"Did I ask you for that little comment Inoue?" Cassidy snapped. Timothy swelled like a balloon.
"Well stop being such a stupid prat!" Timothy shouted. "You are the one asking dumb questions!!"
"Cool it you guys, someone's coming," said Persephone. Timothy sat down in one of the chairs. Melissa was still peeping out the porthole. A shark swam by them. Melissa gulped.
"I hope that shark isn't hungry," Melissa muttered.
"Yeah and if it is I hope it eats you," said a voice. The four looked up.
In the doorway stood Tiffany Macnair and her cronies, Sydney and Ashley. They were looking at Melissa with great dislike.
"Wait till your father finds out what kind of riffraff you hang around, Malfoy," Tiffany said, sneering.
"Wait till your father sees what I've done with your face," Melissa snapped. She stood up. Cassidy and Persephone grabbed hold of her robes.
"You don't need to get expelled on the first day Melissa!" Persephone said. "Tiffany's just jealous of you."
"Jealous of her? You have got to be joking. I am better than she is anyway. She'll never get married, the ugly girl."
"UGLY!" Melissa shouted. She broke free from her friends' grip and stormed towards Tiffany.
"I don't know what you are on about Macnair but you are not better than I am, at least I don't flirt with boys and wear short skirts and lip-gloss," Melissa said, her voice cold. "You are a pathetic excuse of an eleven year old girl and I bet by the time you have graduated you will have slept with every single boy in your house."
"Come on," said Tiffany to her cronies. "Lets get out of here before she loses it," Tiffany snapped at Sydney and Ashley.
"That little--Melissa called Tiffany something she would never say in front of her parents--I want her to start some crap with me this year and I'll make sure she dies a horrible death!" Melissa said coldly. Persephone sighed.
"Well I do hope something happens to---" Timothy was cut off in the middle of his sentence. The ship had slowed to a stop. Melissa gulped.
"We are going to be shark bait!" Melissa cried. "I hate sharks!! They'll eat us
whole!" And she ran behind one of the chairs, shaking.
"Calm down Melissa, Timothy has gone to see what's the matter," said Cassidy.
"We are there!!" Timothy said. "They are gathering up the first years so we can ride boats down to the dome where the castle is! Come on guys!"
"IF I get eaten by a shark my father will have a fit," said Melissa as they went to get in line. There was a long line of first years waiting to board the boats. The other students were waiting for them to get off because they rode the ship the rest of the way to the castle.
Timothy, Cassidy, Persephone and Melissa climbed into the nearest boat. All the first years were on them, ready and waiting.
"Preparing for launch," said a voice as the boats containing the first years began to seal themselves. Titanium plating came up all around them, sending them into total darkness. Then lanterns turned on and there was a window in front of them so they could see out. There were the other boats in front of them, and they noticed a chain of titanium to the other boats connected them.
"Three, two, one!" said the voice and the hatch opened. The little boats had been released. They were approaching the dome.
At the gateway where they entered, there were two huge mermaid statues holding hands to make an arch over the gate. They went straight through the dome. The titanium plating around them opened up and they looked up for the first time at their new school.
Saberhagen Castle looked pretty in the starlight that the sky dome was giving off. There were lights in the windows, and the main door was open. Seas of students headed up the vast lawns to the castle. Melissa shivered.
"I hope it's warmer inside," she said grimly.
"Saberhagen was founded in 32 B.C by three Atlantians. Shawn Sharktooth, Aurora Lightfoot and Thomas Lionfish."
"Shut up Inoue and stop being a know it all," snapped Cassidy. Melissa sighed.
The group followed the woman that was leading them to the castle. They walked in through the huge oak doors. There were paintings on the walls of people dressed in very weird futuristic clothing. But the paintings actually dated back to the B.C period.
Saberhagen Academy of Advanced Magic had been founded by three people from Atlantis, a country for wizard folk from all over. Back in the days when the Atlantis Empire fell, the country sank, but the school, which had been built under water in the North Sea, was not hurt. A few of the Atlantians survived the tragedy and they decided to run the school. Saberhagen had been in existence way before Hogwarts was even thought of. The Hogwarts founders themselves attended school there.
"Welcome to Saberhagen, the oldest school of magic on earth!" said a woman's voice. The first years turned.
"I am Majel Ravenclaw, Saberhagen Headmistress. The school has currently been in control of the Ravenclaw family for the past 500 years. I am so happy to see all of you here! You will be proud to be a part of the oldest school of magic in the history of the world!" Professor Ravenclaw smiled.
"Now through those doors--she pointed at two huge oak doors--you will join your class mates and be sorted. Follow me."
The nervous first years followed Professor Ravenclaw through the door and looked around. Timothy was randomly quoting Saberhagen! A History, and getting on Cassidy's nerves.
"Did you know that the dome outside acts like a real sky? It rains, has snowstorms and even clear days, all depending on what the weather is like on land. I read about the dome in Saberhagen! A History."
"If I hear another thing about that book I swear I will pound you into a pile of bloody pulp, Inoue," Cassidy hissed as they walked up to the front of the Hall quickly.
A man brought out a box covered in red velvet. He sat it on a table and opened it carefully. In the inside of this box, there were three wands.
"Now before we do anything, let me introduce myself. I am Professor Thomas Bolar, head of Sharktooth House and Transfiguration expert. Do not cross me or else. Now, in order to be sorted, you will pick up one of the founders' wands and wave it. If nothing happens, go to the next one. The founder's wand that reacts to you, you belong in their house. This is random, so be prepared."
Professor Bolar took a scroll out of his pocket and began reading names off randomly.
"Persephone Ravenclaw."
Persephone looked shocked. Her heart slammed against her ribcage as she weakly stepped forward. She picked up the first wand and waved it. Nothing. She picked up the second wand. Nothing. She picked up the third wand and....
Gold and Silver sparks shot out the end of the wand and formed themselves into the word 'Lightfoot'. Persephone put the wand down carefully in the box and ran to join the students at the Lightfoot table.
"Tiffany Macnair," said Professor Bolar.
Tiffany swaggered over and picked up the first wand. Navy and Silver sparks shot out the first wand she touched and formed themselves into the word 'Sharktooth'.
Melissa scowled. Tiffany just got sorted into the house that was the equivalent of Slytherin at her brother's school Hogwarts.
"Timothy Inoue," said Professor Bolar.
Timothy picked up the third wand and waved it. A burst of Gold and Silver poured down over him. He was a Lightfoot. The Lightfoots cheered.
Lightfoot House was the equivalent of Gryffindor at Hogwarts. Melissa knew that. She was sure the wands would proclaim her a Sharktooth. But she was wrong.
"Melissa Malfoy," Professor Bolar said.
Melissa closed her eyes, not wanting to look. She laid her hand on one of the wands and waved it. She heard Timothy shout: "You're a Lightfoot Melissa!!!"
Melissa put the wand back down inside its box and ran to join her friends. Cassidy groaned when the wands declared her a Lightfoot. She huffed over and threw herself into the chair next to Timothy, scowling.
"I am going to be stuck in the same house with him for SEVEN years!!" Cassidy cried. "That's going to be hell and I know it!!"
"Oh shut up," snapped Timothy. "You need someone like me so you can learn, because I bet you wouldn't pay attention if they paid you."
"Oh really," said Cassidy turning towards Timothy, "You think you are better than me because you are a know it all?" Cassidy asked.
"I talked to your sisters Misty and Marissa and they told me they would have shut you in a closet if your mother didn't see them because you are so annoying." Then he turned to Persephone and said, "Can I switch seats with you? I don't want to sit next to her," said Timothy.
***
The Saberhagen students chattered merrily until it was time for bed. They were all fed and watered so they headed to bed. Amber the Prefect was showing the first years to the Dormitory. She was a very nice Prefect. Amber didn't get on your case if you broke a rule, she'd just tell you not to do it again. She also loved to paint and draw, and she also happened to be Cassidy's older sister.
"Hello firsties," said Amber. "I'm Amber McManus, a Lightfoot Prefect. Follow me this way please," she said.
The students climbed a series of steps until they arrived at a painting of a very pretty lady dressed in gold. She had blue eyes and blond hair. It was Aurora Lightfoot.
"Password?" Aurora asked.
"Sakrit Lodna," replied Amber.
Aurora swung on her hinges and there was a door behind her. Amber pushed it open and the first years followed.
"Welcome to the Lightfoot Common Room," said Amber as they stepped in. "Girls dorms are up the stairs to the right and boys on the left. All your stuff has already been brought up."
***
Melissa was still awake while everyone else was asleep. She was writing a note to her parents.
The mail system worked different at Saberhagen, as it was underwater. You had to send your mail with your wand to the place you wanted it to go. Melissa finished her letter and reread it.
Dear Mum and Dad,
Saberhagen is great! It's so cool; you guys have to come to the Open House!! Write Draco for me father and tell him I said his school mortally sucks! I miss the both of you already. Hope you are okay.
I'll write again soon..
Melissa
P.S. To send letters to me you have to use your wand. You wave the wand over the letter or what ever it is you are sending and you say the name of the place. You know where I am, so...
Melissa sealed her note and took her wand from under her pillow. She waved it over the letter and pointed it at the seal and said in a crisp voice: "Malfoy Manor!" The letter vanished instantly.
And then she stuck her wand back under her pillow and fell asleep.
***
"I can't believe the sun is shining!" Cassidy said loudly, waking Melissa, Persephone, Tian-lei and Jade up.
"Duh, what is it supposed to do?" said Tian-lei.
"We are 3 kilometres below sea level!! The sun can't reach this far!!"
"For god's sake Cassidy," said a voice. The girls turned.
"How many times do I have to tell you? The dome is bewitched to look like the sky on land!!" Timothy snapped, pushing his glasses back up on his nose. "And by the way ladies, you can't go to class in your pyjamas."
The girls looked at him closely. He was already dressed. Timothy pushed his horn-rimmed glasses up on his nose once again. He was smirking.
"What's the smirk for?" snapped Cassidy.
"This," said Timothy. He reached inside his pocket and pulled out a small golden key. "This key is the key to Naomi Baker's Confiscated and Highly Dangerous cabinet in Professor Ravenclaw's office. There's a book in there they didn't want us to read.."
"I know you didn't," said Persephone, apparently shocked. Tian-lei and Jade had left the room, so they didn't hear any of this.
"I did," said Timothy. "We can go to your Gran's office and steal the book tonight!"
"Oh boy.." said Melissa. She turned to Cassidy. "Seems like under all that know-it-all-ness Timothy is truly a bad bad boy."
Cassidy wasn't listening. Her mind was stuck on that smirk that had spread its way over Timothy's lips.
'Maybe he's not so bad,' Cassidy thought.
***
"I can't believe you Timothy," said Melissa as they headed down to breakfast. "Did you stay awake planning this last night?" she asked.
"Yes I did stay awake, thinking of a good way to stir up some trouble around here. At my old school in Japan, I was known as the Prankster Prince!" Timothy smirked again. Melissa sighed.
"So you are going to become known as that?" Melissa asked.
"And I'm going to drag the three of you with me," said Timothy.
Chapter 2
Got In Trouble...
The four stalked into the Transfiguration classroom, feeling very bored. Timothy took a seat in the front row. Melissa, Cassidy and Persephone sat next to him.
The Sharktooths entered the classroom. Tiffany approached them and Cassidy and Persephone were holding on to Melissa, who had gone very pink with fury.
"Well well well, if it isn't the Quartet with their albino friend," said Tiffany. Melissa was muttering under her breath. Tiffany stared at her.
"What did Melissa ever do to you?" Persephone asked.
"She's preventing me from getting what I want and I want her brother," said Tiffany. "He's mine I tell you, mine!" she said furiously. "I won't allow common trash to marry him.."
"My brother HATES you," Melissa snapped suddenly. Persephone and Cassidy let go of her. "He told me he'd laugh if you got killed, that's how annoying and stupid you are. I'd really laugh if you got raped, the clothes you wear."
"I'm going to get Draco to fall in love with me whether you like it or not," said Tiffany.
"Don't say I didn't warn you," Melissa said coldly.
Just then, Tiffany hurried over to her seat. It was apparent why she had hurried to her seat.
A man strolled in, dressed in black and navy. His hair reached to his shoulders and his eyes were a frozen blue. He looked around the classroom. The students fell silent as he spoke.
"This class is not for foolishness. You will work. No one comes here to be lazy." He paused, because Tiffany was smacking on a piece of gum and he looked at her. She looked down into her lap.
"Spit that gum out or else," he snapped. Tiffany rose from her seat quickly and spit the gum out. She then refused to look up from her lap.
Professor Bolar folded his arms and spoke.
"You will learn many things here, like how to transform into the animal of your choice, molecular transfusion and many other things. But you must put your all into your work or you'll have to deal with me."
The students were copying the assignment off the board as he spoke. Then he walked over to the chalkboard and picked up his pointer.
"Today we discuss Animagi. Does anyone know they are?" he asked.
Timothy's hand shot into the air, nearly missing Cassidy's ear.
"Animagi are wizards who can change into any animal at will," said Timothy.
"You spoke out of turn Mr. Inoue. 5 points from Lightfoot," said Professor Bolar. Cassidy was scowling.
"You need to stop being a smart ass!" she hissed in his ear. "Now you are losing points for our house, you idiot!"
"It's not my fault, I was anxious to answer him!" said Timothy.
Professor Bolar called on Tiffany. She repeated Timothy's answer and smiled.
"5 points to Sharktooth," he said nicely. The Sharktooths cheered. Melissa went pale.
"That's not fair," Melissa said. "We should have gotten those points, you cheating bully!" she said furiously. Professor Bolar looked at her.
"How dare you talk to me like that! 10 points from Lightfoot!" he said.
"I am telling Professor Spencer how you are treating us!" Melissa snapped.
"And what is she going to do? Detention young lady!" he told her. Melissa stood up.
"I let my father and brother yell at me, because they are my family. My father said I don't have to be nice to people who aren't nice to me. I'm out of here!" and with that, Melissa gathered her things and stormed out of the door. The Lightfoots stared.
"Oh well. And WHAT are you staring at?" he snapped at the other students. They got back to work.
***
Melissa walked down the corridor until she reached the stairs leading to the East Tower, where the Potions classroom was. She peeped in. Professor Spencer was at the front of the room stirring something in a huge cauldron.
Professor Spencer looked up.
"One moment class," she said to the students.
She came out into the hall, wiping her hands on her apron, which was stained with stains from different potions. All the students had them. Around her neck hung goggles to protect her eyes from flying ingredients.
"What's wrong Melissa?" she asked.
"I hate Professor Bolar," Melissa said.
"I hate him too. Everybody does, except for the students in his house," she said. "What has he done to you?"
Melissa told her what happened.
"Taking points just because Timothy talked out of turn? That's no reason to take points from a student! That stupid idiot.."
"And I said it wasn't fair," Melissa continued, "So he took points from me. Then he said I have detention."
"You don't have to go to his little detention. I'm going to talk to Professor Ravenclaw about him. Now you can come and sit in here with me, they'll be here soon for Potions."
***
After Potions, Charms, and History of Magic, the four headed to the library where they found Tian-lei and Jade studying for a quiz in Charms. They sat at a table across from theirs and Timothy was looking around for a copy of Saberhagen! A History, to make a reference for History of Magic Class. They also saw something sticking out of his notebook.
"What's that," Cassidy asked.
"A little something I've been working on, it's the plans on how we are going to sneak out of the Dorm and steal that book," said Timothy.
"I'd never think you'd be up for planning devious things Timothy," said Cassidy. Melissa came back to the table with another book.
"Hey Timothy, have you read this? It's the 5th edition of An Appraisal of Magical Education in Europe," said Melissa, "and we are listed as one of the best schools in Europe!"
"Wow, we are going to have good marks on the Saberhagen Essay," said Persephone. "Professor Dickens is going to love them!"
"Now back to the plan," said Timothy, whispering. "Do any of you have invisibility cloaks?" Timothy asked.
"I've got four," said Persephone. "They are in my Gran's office though. We have to plan how we are going to get them with out looking suspicious to her. And it won't be easy."
"Leave the devious stuff to me," said Timothy. "I'll get those cloaks with your help of course," said Timothy.
***
The four headed up to Majel's office after they finished their essays. To their dismay, she was inside, reading the Daily Prophet.
"Hello there you all!" she said cheerfully.
"How are we going to do this," Cassidy whispered in Timothy's ear.
"Leave it to me. You guys distract her so she doesn't notice me sneak into the back room. I'll meet you back in the Common Room with the cloaks."
"Okay," said Cassidy.
The girls chatted with Professor Ravenclaw while Timothy sneaked into the back room.
"Well, the three of you better be off. Wait a min, I thought Timothy was with you," said Majel quickly.
"He forgot something in the library and he rushed back to get it. We'll tell him you said hi," said Melissa quickly as they left.
Majel's eyebrow rose. They were up to something and she knew it.
***
"I can't believe you pulled that off!!" Melissa shouted joyfully. Timothy handed a cloak to the each of them. Melissa put hers on and vanished.
"Imagine all the things I can do to terrorize my brother and father at home with this thing!" Melissa exclaimed.
"I can't believe we pulled this off," said Cassidy.
"She knew," said Persephone.
"What do you mean she knew?" asked Timothy.
"She knows it's rare for the four of us to be separate. She knows that if you forgot something we would have went back with you. The three of us are like your shadow," said Persephone. "She was staring past us when we were talking to her. I think she saw you. We are going to be in so much trouble," said Persephone.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it," said Timothy.
***
After dinner when everyone was getting ready to go to bed, the four stayed in the Common Room until there was total quiet in the Dorms. They gathered up their invisibility cloaks and put them on. They snuck out of the Common Room.
Aurora fussed when she was suddenly pushed open, then she muttered something in Atlantian. ("Those children are asking for trouble,")
They walked a little ways until they had reached Majel's office, which was next door to her sleeping chamber. They tried to open the door but it was hopeless.
"I forgot, she uses a password to get in her office, and I know what it is..." whispered Persephone.
"Then say it!" whispered Timothy.
"Intariua," whispered Persephone.
The door opened. They tiptoed inside and hurried to the cabinet behind Majel's desk. Timothy pulled out the key, but then they heard voices.
"Students are out of bed, Professor. I was checking the beds in the Lighfoot Dorms and four students are somewhere around this castle."
It was Naomi Baker, the housekeeper that everybody hated. Timothy's stomach gave a leap.
"If we get caught I am going to kill you Inoue," Cassidy whispered. Timothy opened the lock and pulled open the drawer. He snatched the ancient looking book from its file and shut the drawer quickly. He locked it back and they tiptoed through the back way after shutting the door to the office. But they stopped in their tracks, dropping the book at their feet.
Naomi Baker stood there, her arms folded. Professor Spencer was with her.
"You are in big trouble," she said.
***
"Your students were caught out of bed," said Naomi.
"Never in my life have I seen students to openly break a rule," said Professor Spencer, looking slightly furious.
"50 points from Lightfoot, from each of you."
"FITFTY!" shouted Cassidy. She turned on Timothy. "THANKS A LOT INOUE!" she shouted at him. Timothy stepped back, looking crestfallen. He should have planned this more carefully. He looked at his feet as all three girls glowered furiously at him. The three of them huffed past him and up the stairs to their dorm and he heard a door slam.
"Goodnight," said Professor Spencer, looking slightly sad at the severity of her punishment.
***
Melissa, Cassidy, and Persephone had taken to ignoring Timothy for the rest of that week. He had already gotten them in trouble and he wasn't about to do it again. But all in that one week he had grown a concern for Cassidy. It was inside his heart. It hurt him every time she got up or moved because he was coming her way. How could he convince the girls to be his friends again? Even he couldn't figure that out. But the thing he was worried about was getting Cassidy to forgive him.
Timothy walked over to the table at which the girls sat. They began to gather their things while Melissa said sarcastically: "who is that approaching us? Oh let's go before he gets us in trouble again!"
"Stop!" Timothy said. It was the first word he'd said to them since Tuesday earlier that week. They looked up at him.
"I'm sorry guys, I didn't mean to," Timothy said. A few wet circles appeared on the stone floor below his eyes. He pulled off his glasses with one hand and looked up at them.
"Awww," said Cassidy. She stood up. "Guys, we have been so mean to him. We should say sorry." She came over to him and put her arm around him. "Stop crying for god's sake, you are a boy!"
"I'm just crying because I'm sensitive..." Timothy choked out. "You guys really hurt my feelings.."
"Sorry," said Melissa.
"Sorry Tim," said Persephone.
"Welcome back," said Cassidy.
***
Later that day, Timothy had regained his old swagger. And he was getting on Cassidy's nerves as usual. They were in Charms, which was the last class for Friday. They were practicing the Levitation Charm and Cassidy was getting it all wrong.
"Hold it!!" said Timothy. "You aren't moving your wrist correctly. It's like this, swish and flick!" he said demonstrating. "Wingardium Leviosa!" he said and pointed his wand at the book on his desk. It soared across the room and hit Tiffany dead in the backside. The Lightfoots burst out laughing. Tiffany squealed furiously.
"Mr. Inoue!" snapped Professor Smith, folding her arms. But a smile was forming at the corners of her mouth, and then she too burst out laughing while Tiffany looked furious.
"I'm telling my father!" she hissed.
After Charms, the students headed down to the Great Hall for dinner. Professor Ravenclaw was preparing to make an announcement.
When everyone was seated, she spoke.
"Attention students, the Quidditch Tryouts start next week. All students are eligible for Tryouts. You must have a signed health card from Madam Periwinkle before you can Tryout, and you also need your parents to sign the permission form, which you will find on your beds in the dormitories. That is all."
A babble of talk broke out over the students.
"I'm trying out for Keeper," said Timothy. "And it's a good thing Mum works here, I won't be waiting for my form."
"Oh yeah I forgot that Timothy's Mum teaches Advanced Astronomy to the seventh years.." said Cassidy.
"I'm trying out for Chaser," said Melissa. "I'm good at scoring goals and I played Junior League Quidditch on the Dark Angels team. I was unstoppable!"
"Well, we better get upstairs to the Common Room so we can study," said Timothy, changing the subject. The four of them headed upstairs to their Common Room.
Misty and Marissa, Cassidy's twin sisters were fighting again, Amber was trying to break them up and their friend Natasha was sitting on her butt laughing her pants off.
"Why did you take my essay and copy it!! You are lazy! Do your own homework!!" shouted Misty.
"I didn't copy your stupid essay, you are so stupid that you got a 3 on one of your essays!" shouted Marissa.
"Will you two shut up?" snapped Amber. "Don't make them shut up this is hilarious," said Natasha.
"STOP!!!" screamed Amber. Misty and Marissa froze. Cassidy was laughing as Timothy pulled his books out of his bag.
"You guys are so stupid," said Cassidy. Melissa nodded in agreement. Persephone sighed.
***
Quidditch tryouts weren't for a month, but they were already practicing. Melissa had regular letters of encouragement from her mother and ranting letters from her father saying that girls shouldn't play Quidditch because they could get hurt. Melissa didn't care about his comments.
The four headed down to the Pitch. Since Saberhagen was inside a dome that made it feel as if they were on land, Quidditch was still a normal thing.
Melissa mounted her broom and tried to throw the Quaffle past Timothy. He blocked it successfully. Persephone then caught the Quaffle and she scored when Timothy wasn't looking at her.
"Yay!" sang Cassidy. "You scored! Timmyboy needs to keep his eyes on the Quaffle," said Cassidy.
"Don't call me Timmyboy!" shouted Timothy furiously.
Chapter has Ended!
Author Notes: The Lightfoot password is Atlantian (No not from the movie Atlantis by Disney) I've made up the language. Sakrit Lodna (Sa-kree-ta La-da-na) means Sacred Light (Corresponding with the house founder, Aurora Lightfoot)!
Thanks to EmiV who suggested that Saberhagen should be underwater! I really liked your Idea EmiV! Thanks for your suggestion!
Hope you enjoyed this chapter just as much as I enjoyed writing it!! I hope you liked it so much that you want to review it!!
