As the group was heading towards the library basement Rex notice that the lamp is and was beginning to flicker and then he remembered that he had forgotten to actually add oil to it since he was in such haste for the meeting, the flame danced delicately in its glass and metal prison seemingly taking its final steps. The boys sighed heavily. "Miranda it looks like we will have to rely on your own lamp later," he realized that the group had been awfully quiet as they had been working and the moment he spoke his voice broke through the silence and came out a little louder than he expected it's true since that was the first words that were spoken in so long and the reaction to it was not disappointing either Miranda looked as if she was going to jump out of her shoes the moment she heard him speak and he wondered what made her so jittery maybe she didn't just like the darkness. "I'm sorry did I startle you?" He apologized to her and she shook her head silence returned to the group aga

As Rex was listening to the professor he was beginning to sincerely wonder if the wizard council that was actually running the university did not want them to advance to another year well they had no choice but to just deal with it. Finally, when the professor was almost done she said. "... There is something for anyone that feels that this exam is too hard as long as any member from your registered team gets to the target position everyone in the team automatically gets a paper…" Everyone seem to lighten up at that announcement but their relief did not live long at all as soon as she added."... however, the papers are limited so that means that if your entire team is too slow you won't end up with a paper at all… get ready the exam will begin in five minutes as I announce your destination." Lyra felt someone's hand on her shoulder and she turned and saw that it was Rex that was holding her shoulder and he was also wearing the same look of worry on his face as well none of their

That bully Kelvin had gotten some students to trick them, by making each of them believe that everyone else had been captured and they needed to be rescued at the university pool as they were feeling stupid for falling for such a trick. "Well I'm not saying either Miranda or Crystal so maybe they went ahead ..." was not done speaking when the same two people that she had mentioned walked into the pool as well looking at them, and hoping that was in our hearts immediately sunk how could all of them have fallen for the same trick so easily. "Rex you're right we should have just stayed together," Miranda finally admitted was nobody else in the group was brave enough to say, he shook his head brushing his face with his arm as he took a deep breath, there was no point in playing the blame game the bully had been able to one-up them because of that but pointing fingers didn't help the situation. "guys there's no time to waste anyway let's start heading to the whispering tree ..." They a

Lyra was trying to listen in on their conversation as they were speaking but she was not able to do so because it was too far away from her seat and they were standing so close to each other as they were speaking, but then without no, the professor then suddenly said very loudly for him to follow the head wizard. Rex glanced in her direction again then he gave her that look that told her that he had the situation under control but that didn't seem to tell her she scraped her feet against the floor and she gritted her teeth but she did not get up from her seat. She gripped her pen frustrated at her own helplessness in helping her friend how did things come down to this, he followed the head wizard outside of the class and the professor remained in the class to supervise the rest of them that were also still having their exam and what made Lyra more frustrated was the fact that some students were openly cheating but she overlooked it and she could easily recognise that the students we

Rex leaned back in his seat as he looked at the head wizard wondering how I was going to prove he was innocent or not. "Head wizard, are you going to prove that ..." "I'll just have some of the students in your year summoned as witnesses to see if they caught you cheating this way, people that were seated around you of course ..." Rex felt the colour leaving his face immediately after the head wizard said that, his fingers began to tremble on the wooden chair that he was sitting in the students in the same here as him despised him passionately and they will do anything to see him kicked out of this university, but as you look at the fading smile of the head wizard he knows that if he refused to have them as witnesses he would look even more guilty. so he had no other choice he had to agree to the option of witnesses and then the head wizard nodded and sent him a smile across the wide desk after that he called somebody in and told them to someone 3 students from Rex year, he also
