Umbridge High School Building, Saturday Evening

[nomutineer.livejournal.com]

There were some clouds hanging around the spires of Umbridge High School, but not enough; there was an overlaying sense that there shouldn't be as much sunlight shining down on it as there was.

It was quiet. Kind of. There was tension in the air, a wound-up strung-up thing that ensnared the school. Somehow it seemed as if even the birds didn't want to touch down on the building itself, and the gates seemed to fold into themselves, even if they weren't quite shut.

And all that on a weekend, too.

It did take a few seconds for Cassie to be able to do spells, so Ender did indeed have time to hit Cassie.

She had a moment to feel shock at the idea of someone getting close to her, and then she crumpled in a heap.

All Ender could think of was that if he let her get up again, she'd probably end him - those blasts had already scorched part of his shirt.

So he brought the wood down a few more times against her head. Had to get her to stay down-- just enough to get her to stay down.

Or maybe not.
