It had taken William some time to find Jon, but since he'd said not to send an owl, William figured meeting him outside would be best. The students would be starting classes tomorrow, so it seemed imperative that the issues of textbooks and classrooms be sorted out now rather than later. The recently discovered storage closet containing the animated skeleton had been securely locked and quarantined; it could wait.
He wasn't entirely comfortable out here, and not only because his arms were full of books. The hair kept prickling on the back of his neck, and every time he turned around he expected to see someone - or something - watching him, but nothing was ever there, only empty field. It was a relief to finally locate Jon, although he looked uncharacteristically bleak.
"The headmaster sent me," William reported, glancing over Jon's expression and the way his shoulders were hunched over as he walked over. "And I have your books. Is everything all right?"
