Cackles Academy for Witches (Shadow and Natalie)

Shadow smiled slightly.
"Thanks Nat. And you should have told me about it!" She said.

"I know...and I see that now...but to be fair...you are the first person I have told any of this to...well...the healers know I was pregnant like...but they never knew by what means..." said Natalie. She bit her lip, "that's why I have been gone for a long time you see."

Shadow shrugged.
"I could have helped with the delivery." She said, "but never mind. She's a cute baby though. Much cuter than my two were."

"Delivery wasn't the hardest part...it was the looks I got...and thank you...I think she is too...but not cuter than yours...they are demons...but I love them." said Natalie, smiling slightly.

"No, they're just mental." Shadow said with a smile. "And yeah, being a young mother can't be very easy."

"Not really...twenty six...not young really...not overly...well...it's worth it..." said Natalie, cuddling tomorrow close.

"Yes, just wait until she gets smart mouthed. That's when they stop being cute." Knowledge said as she walked back to them, carrying a huge, leather bound book.

"Yes...I can imagine...I had a sister like that..." said Natalie, sighing, "she'll never know her grandparents...of her aunt...but she will know her name sakes..."

Shadow smiled slightly.
"Just be glad you have her. Don't let her have to fend for herself."

"Never..." said Natalie, "I can already tell she's a witch...there are signs...though she is two months old...the signs are there..."

Shadow smiled.
"Then don't let her near your wand. Knowing you, she's probably going to be just as intelligent."

((Tell the others I'm going off to bed will you?))

Natalie beamed.

((I did indeed do that))

Shadow smiled again before looking at Knowledge pouring over a book.

Natalie watched with interest.

"Oh no. Knowledge, you know what happened the last time we did that." Shadow warned.
"Shadow, if we calculated it to presicion..."
"NO."

Natalie stayed silent, looking from one to the other.

"No, no, no, and NO!" Shadow steamed as she paced around the library. "We nearly killed Raven last time, we nearly killed ourselves!"
"I made a calculation error!"

Natalie stood up.
"What?" she asked.

"Knowledge wants to try a method we used before, but," Shadow grimaced at this point, "it cause a major magical overload for me. I nearly killed Raven."

"Then...don't invite Raven along...invite me...I cannot die...I can get a nanny or something for the child..." said Natalie, frowning slightly.

"No, seriously, I REFUSE to do that again." Shadow said, and her tone meant it. Knowledge sighed.
"We have another way, but I'd rather not go through with this."

"What is it?" Natalie asked.

Shadow looked over the book again.
"You would have to go for the complicated option..."
"We remove the offending presence in her mind with the use of several spells and potions." Knowledge explained.

"That sounds ok...lets do that!" said Natalie, looking around her as though looking for problems with the plan.

The two nodded silently, and Shadow teleported herself and Natalie with Tomorrow out of her mind.
