Okay, this took a lot longer than I had hoped (in all the mid-term-exam stress I nearly missed a dead-line for an assignment… sigh) – sorry about that. Hopefully I’ll get another chapter out next week but it won’t be until after my last exam (on the 27th) that I can pick up the pace again. Look forward to a writing spree then 😛

Without anymore delay – Chapter 7: Rumors and Consequences
