It was only 4pm, yet Delia had sent everyone to bed, without supper,
because one girl had performed the decensum. If a 14 year old can do it, what else can she do.. hmm. Delia thought hard about the situation, she was getting warm in the bed, so she took the covers off. Marked on the bed were the words
HELP ME, I AM IN HELL!
Delia almost screamed, but once she had blinked there was nothing there.. it was her Imagination. Her crazy imagination, she rolled over and after much struggle fell asleep.
Misty Day, being dragged violently through the mud and the dirt, her beautiful Stevie Nicks-esque dress ruined. Ruthlessly beaten, the petrol made her face shine, the tear marks shone through the dirt in her face. Tied to a pole. The fire started to singe the dress, and the screaming started ..the screaming.
Stopped.. Misty looked straight at Delia and her eyes went black.. she was burning.. "Delia.. help me.." she sobbed "I am in hell.." ..
"Misty?" Delia woke.. flinging the quilt off the bed.
The cold hit her instantly, she shivered. It was 7am and she had to teach botanics is what.. 3 hours. Breakfast was at 8, better annouce it.
"Ladies, rise and shine, there is breakfast at 8, and I'm sure you're all hungry"
Knock! Knock! Zoe came in
"Miss Cordelia, I was wondering. If you can go to your own personal hell, are you able to go to someone else's personal hell?" she suggested.
This was actually a rather fair point and Delia actually contemplated it for a second.
"I'm not entirely sure, I have a free lesson at 10am, I'll have a look in the library to see if such a spell exists"
"Oh and Miss Codelia, breakfast is ready." said Zoe on her way out.
Without hesitation, almost childishly Delia shoved Zoe, looking back to flash a smile, Zoe smiled back and chased her to the breakfast table.. past Queenie
"Watch it bitc-Oh.. Muss Cordelia" Queenie shouted after them..
"Ugh, I don't run" sighed Queenie to herself.
The breakfast was delicious, there were bacon, eggs, french toast!
It was great, though Zoe ate cereal, how plain.
The girls once again poured in, Delia was sat on the biggest chair with one table and two chairs at each side, she understood why the girl had mentioned yeterday that this resembled Hogwarts. Yet, she wasn't an old man with a long beard and a funny hat, as far as she knew anyway.
rather concerned Delia turned to Zoe
"I don't look like Dumbledore, do I?"
Zoe almost spat her drink out, she laughed so hard at Delia's seriousness.
"No, of course not" Zoe laughed.
Good, Delia smiled and stroked an imaginary beard and received a few odd looks from around the room. A bell rang ,which signaled that breakfast was over and it was time for the first lesson. Delia taught botanics, she quite enjoyed it.
She finished tidying slightly before allowing the girls inside. They all stood in awe watching the various potions brew, a huge range of colours. Psychedelic pink, now that was a horrible colour it was the colour of the love potion, of course she never needed it.. she had Misty..
"Mrs Foxx?" said one of the girls
"Yes?"
"Do you mind if I stay back after lesson, I have voodoo with Miss Queenie, I'm sure she won't mind"
"No, she won't"
So after the lesson finished, and all the girls had left, this one girl stayed back.
"What's your name?"
"Erm.. I'm Petra"
"That's a unusal name, I like it."
Petra smiled awkwardly, she wanted to know about the strange flower that grew back once you cut it.
"I know exactly what you mean"
Petra looked surprised, of course Delia was The Supreme reading a mind was also easy, she went to a shelf and picked out the flower the girl was interested in. She put it down on the table, and the girl admired it. The flower as a pinkish colour, looked like a rose bud, except it was so much more.
Delia got some mini pliers, and she handed then to Petra, who looked slightly nervous.
Misty cut the plant, and guilt spead across her face. Though when a new baby bud grew, almost instantly a smile beamed, a smile that was beautiful.. a smile that could stop time. "Did I do it right?".."Mrs Foxx, did I do it right?"
"Mrs Foxx??" Petra was tapping Delia on her shoulder, they were close together, too close.
Close like Misty
"Misty..."
"What? Mrs Foxx, did I do it right?"
"Erm, yes, yes you did, well done! You better get to your next lesson"
Petra hurried off, her hair whisping in the wind.
Delia thought about what Zoe had mentioned earlier and her promise to look into it, so she headed off to the library. Book after book, nothing.
She decided to use the beads in order to find a book on decensum
Wow, it worked. She could picture the book clearly, in section B, it had fallen down behind the shelf. Using the magical power of telekinesis, ( fancy, right?)
Delia moved the shelf easily. The book was there staring right at her.
Visiting the Etiam infernum of another in order to either return them to rebus viventibus is not an easy task and is only to be performed by Summum herself, any other Sagae, because they are sure to perish.
the spell in order to make the transition to hell is ;-
Offendit te transferre nihil invenies quod iustum est, et non pertinet ad hoc quod in effectu intuebantur t animus stoey.
Does this mean she can get Misty out of there?
