"Broomsticks splints and cauldron cracks" Bren said loudly as he cursed his terrible sense of directions. He was so annoyed that he allowed himself to get turned around in the schools dungeons, that he could nearly scream. He was shouting, which was just a few clicks below incoherent screaming. Running a hand through his platinum locks, he spun around in circles as he attempted to find the proper way out of his current predicament.Bren had a some free time before classes started up officially to explore and get to know the school and grounds better. It seemed that Hogwarts gave the students a few days to adjust to the new environment before the school year officially kicked off as students had to map out their routes to each of their classes unless they wanted to be held up on those accursed moving staircases and the doors that were not doors at all. No matter how much his family tried to tell him about the school before he arrived, there were bound to be a few details that they glossed over in hindsight. Though how anyone forgot about the ever changing landscape of the castle's interior was beyond him at this point as it was the giant dragon in the room in his humble opinion. He would have to write his uncle a long note listing of his failures at preparing his nephew for school. That was if he did not starve to death first trying to find his way out of the schools dank basements.
When he heard dungeons, his eleven-year-old mind started to go haywire. In every fantasy book, he had read there was always talks of dungeons and the mysterious they held such as treasures or DRAGONS. Though a Ravenclaw girl had sarcastically informed that there were no dragons in the schools dungeons and that he was a little child to believe such hearsay. He nearly hexed her but then he remembered he did not know any hexes yet, much to his annoyance as she sauntered off feeling rather pleased with herself. He should have expected as much from a Ravenclaw as his mother was rather factual and logical in her analysis of things. She wasted no time calling him out on his misinformation and was all too prepared to offer him proven facts as to why he was wrong. If he did not know any better, he would swear that he was adopted or something as he found her sternness to be a bit grating at times. He loved her deeply, but she could be a real joy kill. Like the year, she sat him down and told him that Santa did not exist. His uncle was quite a bit furious about that one, so they both agreed, Bren and his mother that was, not to tell him that Bren had also ben informed that the Easter bunny and tooth fairy were not real either. He would have had a heart attack if he knew as he still to this day tried to sneak a basket of goodies into Bren's room on Easter morning with a note, in his handwriting, addressed by the Easter bunny. He was a strange one, but Bren deeply loved his uncle in all his weird glory.
Having no clue where to go, Bren did the most logical thing he could think of at the time. He sat down in the middle of the corridor, Indian style with his arms crisscrossed over his chest. If he could not find his way out, then he would wait for someone to come by and ask directions then. No need wasting his energy walking around in circles. It was survival skills at its finest. Though given his weak internal compass, this choice was questionable at best. He had a box fo chocolate frogs in his pocket so if worse case he could ration that off that for a few hours if he had to. He once read that the muggle spiritual leader, Gandhi survived twenty-one days without eating, so he knew that it was possible to survive. Though he also knew that he would not survive more than a few days without water. He could drink his urine, but that hardly sounded appealing so he hoped that he would not be stuck down in the dungeons forever. After several hours, More like minutes, he heard footsteps approach from the rear, Jumping to his feet he waited for the person to round the corner before he bombarded them with his demands and his shouting. His voice seemed to carry so maybe that had heard him shouting and came to save him from his own overconfidence in skills.
