Whats This Place Like?

[Grace Brown]

Grace had been sitting in the Gryffindor common room trying to think of a reason for not doing homework when she realized she had never explored the dungeons. It was a perfectly good excuse to not be doing homework in her eyes. Grace quickly packed up her school supplies and began the long walk to the dungeons. Grace ran down the long stair case from the entrance hall into the basements of Hogwarts excitedly. It flames from the torches that lined the walls cast just enough light so she could see people coming and get out of their way. She really didn't want to run into an older Slytherin student. As Grace passed the potions class room she noticed that there were fewer and fewer lights in the hallways. oooo creepy! she thought not really meaning it at all. Grace adored creepy things.

Grace finally had to bring out her wand when the torches were far behind her. "Lumos" she cast. At once the tip of her wand lit up and she could see again. "This place looks so cool!" she exclaimed looking all around her. The bricks down here looked much older then the ones on the upper levels on the castle. It looks like something out of a horror movie!. Grace continued to walk down the hallway taking everything in. She stopped every once and a while to check out some of the doors. She could never get any open. "I wonder if anyone was ever tortured down here" she thought out loud knocking on one of the more menacing looking doors.

 

[Isabella Romanes]

Something wanted to bring Isabella out of the dorms and out of studying. Wearing a casual and comfortable outfit, Isabella chose to not tell the other Slytherins where she was leaving off to. She ventured from the Slytherin house, without her hair tied up which most people in the school were accustomed to seeing on her. She just wanted to take a walk around the dungeons. Isabella made her way through the dungeons, her wand at her side as she walked deeper and deeper into the parts were it was hard to see. She allowed her eyes to adjust to the darkness. Isabella only knew of three prefects that were in Slytherin, but she did not know if this was allowed in the school. Isabella heard something, something like knocking on wood down through the dungeons. Isabella chose to not ignore it at all, and this time, she chose to investigate. It could be someone that did not belong down here to begin with.

Isabella perked her ears up when she was closing in on the nose maker. Isabella flourished her wand and she casted Lumos verbally, and a bright light flowed around her and lit up the dark dungeons to see a girl that was in her year, and not in Slytherin. Isabella spoke up in a soft accent, "What are you doing down here?" Her tone was not mean in any way, but it was more or less just curious. She held her wand down a bit as she did not want to blind the girl either. Her Italian accent was still loud in her words, and her English was not so good either. Isabella was just curious, but then her eyes wondered, She had never ventured down this far before, not down this area of the dungeons.
