»——————————— ⚝———————————« I Followed Irene, Siara And Alora To Our First History Class With Madame Lovelace. We Sat In The Back Row, Passing Notes. They Were All About The Sudden Changes At Rookwood. "Do You Hear Snoring?" I Asked, Looking Around And Trying But Failing Not To Laugh. "It's Madame Lovelace," Irene Said Without Much Energy. I've Noticed Lately That The Rookwood Spirit Had Disappeared Even From The Teachers. Everyone Seemed So Upset, Trudging Slowly Through The Empty Corridors And Always Yawning In Class. The Door Banged Open. Siara Gasped. It Was Mrs Knight With A Stern, Almost Angry Gaze. She Slammed Her Fist Against Madame Lovelace's Desk. She Woke Up With A Start And Faltered When She Saw The Headmistress. I Held My Breath. "Sleeping While Teaching?" Mrs Knight Shouted Through Gritted Teeth. "That's Unacceptable," She Finished, Pounding Her Fist Against A Stack Of Books. Madame Lovelace (She Was Ancient So I Honestly Don't Blame Her For Dozing Off. It Just Gives Us More Freedom), Spluttered, "But ... But ... I've Always Done This. This Isn't The First Time. From Way Back." Mrs Knight Smiled Cruelly Before Declaring Something So Terrible That I Have Trouble Repeating It. "You're Fired, Now Get Out. History Lessons Will Be Paused Until I Find A Better Replacement," She Glared. Siara, Irene, Alora And I Gaped At Her Before Turning To Face Each Other With Determination. I Made Eye Contact With Liv, Ellie, Luna And Morrisa Who Nodded Once In Confusion As If Waking From A Dream To A Nightmare. »——————————— ⚝———————————«
