Cackles Academy for Witches (Shadow and Natalie)

"Spare me the lecture." Meran said, rolling his eyes.

"At least I have a hint of control over my tongue and actions..." said Natalie quietly, voice dripping with hate.

"And so do I." Meran replied.

Natalie looked at him, eyes full of hatred.

Meran looked completely at ease under Natalie's glare.

Natalie stood her ground, but turned her back briefly to Meran.
She handed Tomorrow to Shadow.
"If he kills me...she's yours..." said Natalie.
She turned back to Meran.

Shadow held the child close, looking afraid. She feared for her friend. Meran looked at Tomorrow.

Natalie looked out her wand and held it tight.
"DO NOT DARE LOOK NEAR MY CHILD!" Natalie yelled, "I WILL KILL YOU!"

"Hm..." Meran said, ignoring Natalie's threat. "What an interesting group. The baby and the princess. With that pairing, my plans would be able to come to completion."

"IF YOU DARE TOUCH MY CHILD, OR SHADOW, I WILL KILL YOU SO COMPLETELY THAT YOU WILL NEVER COME BACK EVER AGAIN!" screamed Natalie.

"Have you not realised, that everytime some one says that, it never actually happens?" Meran pointed out, circling Shadow.

Natalie looked at him with a scowl.
"I pity your mother..." said Natalie quietly.

Shadow stared straight ahead of her, her face set in a grim expression as Meran continued his observations of her and Tomorrow, ignoring Natalie.

Natalie took her child off Shadow again.
"Look at me! Not her!" yelled NAtalie.

"But you are of little use to me." Meran said airily.

"What use is the child?!" Natalie asked.

"You are of no use because youwere raised in the 'righteous' way. I could raise this child in a better way." Meran said.

"I'm a mudblood..." said Natalie helplessly.

"That has no mention in my world." Meran said.

Natalie still thought.
"I am...a vampire...who is a dangerous creature under law no. 13345 of the restriction of semi-evil creatures..." she said.

Meran ignored Natalie, observing the child.

Natalie kicked Meran in the shins.
"NO!" she yelled again.

Meran flinched slightly and backed away towards Shadow.

Natalie screamed.
"FIGHT ME YOU COWARD!" she yelled, whipping out her wand.

"I think not my dear." Meran said silkily.
