SGE: Hidden Secrets

Fortnight

Two weeks passed since Tedros was sick. Now he recovered and was back to his usual routine. Here in the castle at early morning, leaving at around noon. Neither acknowledged each other when they worked. Agatha had her reasons. She didn't know about Tedros so the two kept quiet. The Nevers had already left. Agatha enjoyed their company. Even though she was quiet most of the time, she enjoyed watching the three witches fight. She appreciated the nods of Hort and the small smiles. She enjoyed seeing her sister again. But now she had to work. She had been staring into space for too long this morning. Tedros was looking at her strangely.

The worst part of Tedros leaving, was that she didn't know where he was going. At noon, she would be doing more work, answering calls, and eating lunch at the same time. She had to clear out her schedule if she wanted to know where he was going. Agatha suddenly felt like the old Agatha, the Agatha who plans and plans to get Sophie to Tedros. Now it's her to Tedros. She thought of pretending to be sick. But why would a sick queen run out at the middle of the afternoon? Then she thought of going to a fake meeting. But her secretary guy knew all her schedules. So she settled with planning to see her sister as the lie.

It was noon and Tedros disappeared once more. Agatha went to her stations (front gate), and said to her supervisors (they follow her mostly everywhere), "I am off to see my sister again. I wish to speak with her." Immediately a carrige being pulled by two white, elegant horses stopped in front of the gate. She smirked and went inside. Waving a hand to say goodbye to her fellow servants, she told the driver where to go.
The carrige she was in was similar to the one she was in when she first arrived here in Camelot. But this one is smaller. She slept the whole way on, feeling exhausted from her work in the morning.

She awoke late at night, when the carrige stopped in front of Evil's Gates. "Just in time." Agatha thought. The driver opened the door for her and offered a hand. She accepted it and walked down. "I will call when I wish to return to Camelot. It won't take long." Agatha declared. She bowed and went straight in the castle. She wondered if anybody was still awake. Her elegant blue dress might give her away. She wanted to surprise her sister, despite the suspicions. She suddenly felt like she was being watched. She turned and saw no one. She looked up at the vents, in neighboring corridors, but no one was in sight. She thought Merlin was following. Or Hort. Or Tedros. She put everything aside and started looking for her sister.

Memories of this place started flowing in. She remembered in First Year she was a crawling cockroach. Second Year, well, nothing really important in her Second Year. But the Third. Wow. Don't get me started. She-

Agatha turned around. The smile on her face disappeared. A hint of golden hair quickly flashed before it dashed down the stairs. Agatha charged after it. She heard doors open behind her. She didn't care. Wether it was Sophie or Tedros, she wanted to find out what they are doing.

She dashed down, seeing no one. Her head turned all directions. She noticed an open door. She went in and she can see darkness. No one was there.Where the hell-

Agatha lay unconscious on the floor. The door was closed. No one knew she was there, despite the professors and students searching for the source of the noise. Sophie was one of them.

Tedros was home early. He was tired when he went in his room. The whole day was full of work. He looked at the bed and saw a lump hidden underneath the blanket. He smiled as he walked at the bed, ready to surprise his queen. He say down, his hand over the blanket, and pulled. A mount of pillows lay under it. Shock and fear spread across his face.
