Life Continues at Hogwarts

Catching Up

 

Since Joss's death no one had seen much of Egreen or Achel.

Both had taken the events quite badly, but they seemed to be getting on spending most of the day together in the library with their large tomes.

Those who had seen them said the seemed to be taking notes, and comparing the volumes. Whispered conversations were overheard, with strange words, although "embracing" seemed to be the most common one.

Achel was also spotted coming out of Greenhouse number 6 once, and Egreen coming out of Dumbledore's office. The two had even been seen talking to Marvo.

It didn't seem anybody had seen much of anyone during that time. Life at school went on of course and people did talk to one another but there was more of an air of 'getting on with things' than the intensity of the Hogsmeade weekend.

Nimue had had no contact with Achel, which had somewhat disappointed her. She has seen him at some distance in the library but whatever he and his cousin were up to they were keeping it very much to themselves.

Kat had been shocked to see Joss the first night after her death, but had not told anyone about it. She didn't know if the others knew or not. She didn't want to talk about it. She and Joss had been soo close, and she still felt like she knew part of Joss very well, but seeing her as a ghost was scary. She just wanted the old Joss back. But she hadn't seen Joss at all for a while.

She had been seen mostly in the library with her nose in some book or another. She had occasionally seen Egreen and Achel in there too, but had assumed that they were doing the same as her. Researching. Although, no one knew what she had been looking for.

She had been pre-occupied in lessons too, and had been caught several times drawing on her notebooks. Some of the drawings had been pretty good too. One was a wonderful likeness of Joss. But when questioned by the teacher who had caught her she just replied, "That can't have been me drawing, I can't draw." That was true, she normally had no artistic talent at all.

One day while she was in the library she must have found something she had been looking for, because she frantically scribbled some notes, snapped the book shut and returned it to the shelf. She hurriedly gathered up her things and rushed out. She ran to the hall that the 3rd years had been using as a communal common room, hoping to find someone there she could talk to. Madison, maybe, Or Nimue or Marvo, or even Morticia, someone who might know a bit about what she had found.

She'd have been better going and talking to Joss, but Joss had kept to herself and Kat didn't think she would have been able to find her. Kat opened the door and rushed in....
