DOL 12

As Sam uttered this last statement, Dean Dread suddenly appeared and loomed menacingly over the two boys.

“Loquacious ones, eh? You two, come here,”  the dean ordered. His voice took the flatness of a cockroach crunching under a shoe.  

DOL 13

Dean Dread put one huge, ham-sized hand on the back of each boy and ushered them to the front of the “cafetorium.”  All the other new sixth-graders, of course, tittered at the sight of William and Sam being caught talking.
