“The monk must tell us what to do with it,” suggested Rob.

“He will appear in time I’m sure,” agreed Rebecca, “Do you think we’ll see George… I mean Granddad again,” she added wistfully.

“I’m not sure… he said he would see us again but…” Nate’s words hung in the air.

“We have to find a place to hide the chalice first. Any ideas?” said Rob.

“We could put it where I hid the skull I suppose…” replied Nate.

Rebecca wrinkled her nose at the memory of it.

“Well I can’t think of anywhere better. Unless we hide it in the house somewhere?” said Rob.

“Oh yeah, great idea genius! Of course, mum won’t find it when she cleans up, will she?”

“Well, if you two boys cleaned your rooms she wouldn’t have to,” interjected Rebecca.

“Listen who’s talking! You’re not much tidier than us… she’d never find it in your room, it looks like a jumble sale,” retorted Nate.

They fell to bickering and naturally attracted the attention of their mother who was working in the kitchen.

“Will you lot pack it in? For goodness sake, you’re like toddlers!” she yelled.

They immediately ceased the hostilities and returned to their discussion.

“So… we hide it in the garden then?” pressed Nate.

“Suppose so… should be safe! We’ll have to do it when nobody’s around though. At least Silas is out of the picture,” said Rob.

“Yes… and Mr Steele has vanished too. So who exactly are we hiding it from then?” asked Rebecca.

The two boys looked at her closely. What she said was true… but somehow they didn’t feel completely at ease. Rob had a squirming sensation in his stomach, as if he was worried about something but didn’t know what.

“Well, we don’t want to take it for granted. I think we still have to be careful. You know… just in case.”
