People were ushered to a bigger hall for the ceremony. The professor who was the special guest, walked over to the podium to say a few words and then the pastor pulled the red cloth.

She snarled with anger, quickly turned around and charged once again.She stopped in her tracks for a while as thoughts began to flow from the older werepanther once again. Her wanted to assure her he meant no harm. She noted his body language and was able to understand that he was just here to convey a message. Nevertheless, she prepared for an attack and in the process managed to further outrage the older werepanther.

“Do you see the connection?” Skin asked as soon as they stepped away from Professor Peterson.“Sure do,” Olivia replied quietly.“Don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure out something so simple,” Roxy said with a mild hint of sarcasm.“Please!!!” Olivia warned in an annoyed tone. “And Roxy, can you please try to act a bit natural when in public?”“This is natural!” Roxy stared at Olivia, her eyes wide open. “Well… unless you want me not to act natural.”“Coming back to the point, I think you should talk to Captain Moss right now,” Skin suggested.“It can wait. You can see we have an urgent job on hand,” Olivia said thoughtfully.“Captain Moss needs to hear about this because…” Kai began to say.“Later! For now, we have to make sure that the chalice stays safe. Remember, Captain Moss said we must not take any action until we find a way to undo the spell.

Allan was running late as usual and William wished that this time it would be because he had a lead on the case. However, as soon as Allan entered the café, looking somewhat dishevelled and walking with a slight limp, William lost all his hope. Allan walked over to him and took a seat opposite to him.“You look like you have been outsmarted once again,” William said with disappointment.“I could use some food, I am starving,” Allan grunted easing himself in the chair.After a short while, a waitress approached and the two men ordered some food.“So?” William asked.“Well, they left no clue.
