Leela sat shivering in a cold room, barely lit. Her eyes were wide open, trying to get a glimpse of where she was. The last thing she remembered was the sight of blue brunerras.
Leela tried standing up but got yanked back by chains. She felt her wrists and felt the cold metal around them. She shivered again, but in fear.
Leela had been kidnapped.
Ignasia paced around her room. The school had decided that they would stay for a little while longer, which would give the, time to find Leela. Ignasia started pacing faster, her mind racing, when she heard a knock on the door.
Ignasia wiped her eyes. She didn't want anyone to realize she was terrified for her friend, especially if it was her house members. Ignasia didn't want them to see her fearful, she wanted them to see her as a figure they could trust aand rely on.
When she opened her bedroom door, she saw a Gregory Violet staring at her.
"Gregory . . ." Ignasia trailed off and moved aside, closer to the door, to give room for Gregory to enter. He remained in the same spot.
"I only needed to give you this letter. It just arrived," he said. He handed Ignasia an envelope. She took it and stared at it, suddenly having a bad feeling. She didn't know what it was, but she just didn't want to open that envelope.
Suddenly, she felt a pair of arms around her. Ignasia looked up and saw Gregory holding her close. "We'll find her," he said softly. "Don't worry."
Ignasia knew Gregory was trying to be reassuring, but she couldn't let herself believe things were okay.
When Gregory left, Ignasia sat down on the edge of her bed. She stared at the envelope in her shaking hands. She had a feeling the letter was the bearer of bad news.
Ignasia opened the envelope and saw two words that made the paper fall from her hands . . .
