Cackles Academy for Witches (Shadow and Natalie)

"On no...it wasn't another person's life I tried to take...for you see...it was my own...but you knew that...right?" said Natalie quickly.

Shadow sighed.
"I knew."

"Yes...I forgot you're the one that took me away from the horrid forest..." said Natalie, "for that I shall be forever greatful."

"You can thank Merlas for getting herself into a mess." Shadow said with a smile.

"And she can thank us both for getting her out of it...but pegusis hardly ever talk..." grinned Natalie.

"She occasioally talks to me." Shadow said thoughtfully, "but yes, they hardly talk."

"Beautifl creatures though..." Natalie smiled.

"Hmm." Shadow said, thinking.

Natalie sat, lost in thought also.

Shadow stood up and started to look through her potions stock absentmindedly.

Natalie looked at the book shelf.

"Nice medical library..." she grinned.

Natalie grinned slightly.

Shadow looked at the pair.

"Archangel fell off her broom." Onyx said, gesturing to the very dazed looking Archangel.

"Yes...and I can see Hardbrooms face at that..." Natalie said, wincing slightly.

Shadow took one look at Archangel.
"Go back to the lesson On, she's going to be here for a while..."

Natalie smiled.
"Shall I take her back?" she asked.

"Ok, I'll try to get Archangel walking in a straight line again." Shadow said.

Natalie smiled, and walked through the dome, waiting for Onyx to follow.

Onyx took a last worried look at her sister before hurrying after Natalie.

"She'll be fine...what happened to her...I'm guessing she didn't just fall..." said Natalie, "was the Hallow girl by any chance envolved?...you know...Ethal..."

Onyx nodded quietly.
"She knocked Arc off her broom..."

"Thought so..." she said, eyes growing black for about a second, "that girl...is going down..."
