But then... what if it was something experimental? He was going to be stronger and stuff, but in the end it would kill him early? She'd heard of that stuff for other things, but never for something like this. "And why wouldn't he tell me about this? I mean, his own sister!" Not that they looked anything alike... or were even related... but he was like a brother to her! And he knew it! Didn't he?

She frowned. If it was true, why wouldn't he tell her? "I should talk to him... Find out what's going on. I don't think he's going to drop dead at any minute... I mean, there would be some sign, wouldn't there? Like getting weak or something?" Then, determined, she turned toward Raiden. "I'm going to talk to him."
Eli grabbed her arm. "No! You can't do!" he spoke in an urgent whisper. "You swore you wouldn't say anything to [/i]anyone[/i]. You promised. Nobody is supposed to know about this, and if you talk to him about it, he might get so upset he dies on the spot! We can't let that-- look, let's just-- We need to talk to Professor Vindictus about it. " he said firmly. "He'll know how to sort it. Besides, you promised, and a promise is like a muggle-style Unbreakable Vow. You can't tell anybody because you gave me your word. You and Ari, you have to keep the secret. You're my secret-keepers now."

Of course, that didn't mean Eli didn't feel free to blab to Ellie and --well, the whole school -- about the Poor Doomed Prefect. What a wonderful tragedy in their midst!
