“What do
you mean by structural alterations?” Ms Firnley asks. “You'll
have to speak to the board of governors before you can alter the
building.”
Beech
surveys the room full of children and sighs. “It may be extreme”
he replies to Fox, “But I don't think there is another option.”
Ms Firnley
grabs a text book and slams it on the desk in front of her. “I
know you people have a job to do,” she declares boldly, “but I
will not be ignored in my own classroom. Now what on earth is going
on with the children and how are you going to get them back?”
Beech turns
towards her. From the look on his face, Ms Firnley is sure that he
has just noticed her for the first time. “Madam, there are dark
forces at work here,” he tells her. “Saving the children may not
be an option.”
