Alex jumped when he thought he heard something. He ran back through the opposite entrence from when he'd come in and ran round the back of the castle to the small area behind it. He sat by the edge of the pond and placed the book onto the surface of the pond. It floated. He pressed it down but it felt like pressing on a hard surface. He pulled it off the surface and it was dry. He laughed, a bit gob-smacked. He had to hide the book before his mother came back.
