Morgan looked down the hall, and crept up against the wall, the beconed Sonia to follow her. once they both had their backs against the wall, Morgan turned down to look in the opposite direction where foot steps were echoing. Quite suddenly, Courtney edged around the corner, trying to be quiet. a sheef of parchment stuck oddly out of her pocket, and she looked as if she were hidding from someone. "Courtney!" whispered Morgan, to get her attention.
Morgan nodded, then tapped the chain with her wand. The golden chain streached like a rubber band, and Morgan snapped it around Sonia's neck, then turned to Courtney, offering the chain. Suddenly, A girl came marching up behind the girls, looking angry. "Who are u?" screamed the girl, looking furiously at Courtney. It was Courtney's Older self. The one who had spotted Morgan the first time Morgan and Courtney had come back to the past. Then Courtney turned on Morgan. "U again! What do u want?" "Nothing!" answered Morgan holding up her hands. She had handed Sonia the time turner.
Morgan nodded snydly, and Sonia flashed the small hour glass around the appropreate times, in reverse. The world speedid around at supper speed, but going forward instead. In a blaze of light, all three girls staggered around Courtney's living room. Morgan looked around at her new friends. "Well, find the people u want to say good-bye to, because we have five minutes, before the Time Corrector sinks in." she announced grimly, then gave both Courtney and Sonia a hug.
Morgan smiled sadly, but jumped when a voice came from the corner. "Morg, what about us?" It was Hermione, sitting with Harryand Ron, who were keeping Athorin tied in a chair. Morgan gave all three a hug as well, and said, "Well, u might not remember this, but we'll still b friends. Look on the bright side, u'll all still owe me 1." Ron snorted, but when Athorin laughed, Ron kicked him in the shins.
There was a flash of white light, all sound was ringing in everyone's ears. nothing seemed real, or fake. Suddenly, everyone was back, in a large hall, with banners swaying from a high ceiling that looked as if it opened up to the sky above. Morgan brushed dust off her indigo dress robes, and looked around the room, then waved at Harry, Hermione, and Ron, who came rushing towards her from the corner they had been standing in. Athorin was still tied to a chair, wondering why the hec he was here, anyway. Courtney was over by the refreshments stand, looking over at Sonia, who was twirling a string of her hair lazily, looking over at a boy named Elrohir, who was talking to his sister, Maik, while another boy, Descartes, looked closely at Maik with intrest. Everyone was back 2 the scene of the crime, The Yule Ball. (lol! I made a funny!)
Maik turned to go, followed closely by Elrohir. She hadn't mentioned where Caldwell was, but he had the distinct feeling she knew. "Maik, you aren't going to do anything drastic, are you?"
Maik didn't answer, which was just as good as a conformation. They walked past a boy and a girl, trying not to draw attention to themselves in the process. For a moment, Elrohir thought he recognized them, but he dismissed it.
