  *Flashback to their childhood *

  "Come on! It's only 8pm. Why can't you stay longer? We were just getting started." Salazar argued while following Godric in the broom station.

"I just can't. I have things that i need to get done. Okay?" Godric answered with his hands in his pocket. 

"What things?" Salazar asked, looking at his friend.

"Just... Homework." Godric said, keeping his eyes on the road. "Oh a broom. WAIT!" Godric shouted and ran towards the broom that had just stopped.

"See you later. Our duel was fun." Godric said to Salazar after getting on the broom and leaving.

Salazar frowened and his eyes narrowed. "I need to know what's so important that he leaves our fun for it." Salazar thought to himself and hopped on the first broom that stopped.

A few minutes later, he got to Godric's house.

Godric wasn't living in the best district of the town. Lots and lots of wizards and witches dueled everyday, killing one another and Salazar wasn't allowed to go there without his dad but he did anyway.

It was pretty late now and with each minute that passed, Salazar regretted being there more and more.

He ran from one point to the other, hiding behind the piles of garbage. He finally got to Godric's house in one piece. He sneaked in through the kitchen window.

  The dining room was visible from the kitchen. He could see Godric sitting infront of his dad on the dining table.

"Answer me. Why have you got a 60 on your History of dar arts class, son?" Orlando asked Godric.

Godric looked down and said "But... Um... The rest of my grades are all higher than 60 dad." His voice was barely higher than a whisper.

"Huh. Sure. They are all higher than 60. Great. At least you're not that dumb." Orlando said, slowly getting off his seat.

"Do you know what Salazar's report card said, son?" the fat man asked, getting closer and closer to Godric. Godric moved back in his seat.

"Uh... Umm... I... Id... I don't know dad." Godric said. At this point, he was shaking like a leaf.

"Hmmm... You don't know. You. Don't. Know. YOU DON'T KNOW." Orlando yelled, throwing the glass on the table at Godric's face.

The glass shattered.

Godric fell off the chair and tried shielding his face with his arm which saved his face but injured his arm heavily.

"Dad. I'm sorry." Godric said trying to avoid eye contact with his father.

Orlando took out his wand and aimed it at Gordric.

-STUPIFY
Salazar shouted and froze the fat man in his place.

He ran towards his friend who was shocked and grabbed his wrist forcefully. "Come on! Let's get out." He said.

They got out of the house as soon as possible and ran towards the closest broom station.

                  *Back to present*

  "Oh Merlin! Why did we let him take Godric today?! We need to go get him back one way or another." Rowena said.

"Besides, we can inform Headmaster Cadarota and tell him about Orlando." Helga suggested.

"I'm not really worried about Godric's father. He can protect himself against a fat creep. The reason I'm worried is Fion. What if he catches Godric off guard and atta-" Salazar was cought off by a knock on the door.

The looked at each other and then at the clock. It was quiet late. Who was it?

Rowena got up and opened the door. It wad Proffesor Caron. "Proffesor?" Rowena asked. Caron walked in with his cane.

"Get up. Godric's in trouble." he told his students.

"What?" Salazar raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Floc was telling us how his lamp showed two unbelievably strong negative energies in a place called 'Magus' and how strange it was." Caron explained.

"Magus is close to where Godric lives." Salazar said.

"Exactly. No one's energy is that strong. I think it's the wizards and their plan is killing Godric and calling it revenge. They're obviously angry. After all, they're losing the fight." Caron continued.

"If they play it dirty, then we need to act up." Rowena said.

"Yes. But we will need a plan. Here is what i think we should do." Caron said.

"How about you three take Salazar's Invisibility cloak and sneak in the hou-" Caron was stopped by Salazar.

"MY CLOAK? You have it?" he asked with excitment.

"Yes. May i keep going?" Caron said seriously. Salazar nodded and Caron explained his plan.

"We will strike in an hour. Make sure you all get checked by the nurse before leaving. Best of luck." Proffesor said, leaving the room.

  "What if they get him before us? What if he is already in trouble?" Helga asked Salazar.

"Hold on." Salazar said, rubbing his chin. "Explomo Godric." he chanted a few times.

After seeing the hole appear, Salazar called Godric's name. "Godric?"

"Salazar? Is that you? You're putting our spell into good use aren't you?" Godric joked.

"Are you okay?" Rowena asked.
"I'm okay. Why?" Godric said.

"We have a plan to get you out of there. Prepare yourself for some trouble buddy. The wizard and the witch are coming for you." Salazar replied.

"How do you know that?" Godric asked. "No time to explain. Just be prepared. We'll be on our way in a few minutes." Salazar answered.

    -Thank you guys so much for reading this chapter. This was a sad chapter to be honest. We hope you liked it. If you did, please let us know.

  This one was a bit shorter but that's only because all the fun stuff will happen on the next part-
