The door swings open to reveal a dank and dusty room which has clearly been vacant for years. White sheets cover the furniture, cobwebs fill every nook, cranny, corner, and everything in between. A layer of dust permeates every aspect of the room. For some reason, all you can do is stand and stare inside.

Though the door swung open easily, a strange barrier prohibits the living from entering this room. The barrier was put in place by Marcella Riddle the term after her unfortunate demise and protected the peace and quiet of the ghosts still residing at Hogwarts. The room has laid quietly in the years since the young Hogwarts ghosts reattained their bodies.

For more details on the former residents of this room, please read Hogwarts, A History, chapters term 5 to term 7).

Kylie had been spending some time exploring the castle when she stumbled across this room.
Whoa. she thought to herself. It was.. creepy..
She only wished she knew a way to get past this barrier.. get a closer look..

Star-Lord · 10-27-2009, 02:54 AM

In all her time here, almost two years, Jule had never come across this room. Everything was dusty, covered with white cloths, and just plain CREEPY. But it didn't seem to bother Jule. It was already a strange year, and it was only January. By this time last year, two floors were flooded. It was then she remembered when the Grindylow bit her on the leg. Shivers went up her spine, as she walked around, exploring the room some more.

seusslover14 · 10-27-2009, 10:44 PM

Kylie saw another girl in the room whom she didn't she knew.. it startled her at first, seeing her.. "Excuse me.. I don't believe we've met. Kylie." She said, shooting her hand towards the other girl.

Star-Lord · 10-27-2009, 10:51 PM

"Hmm?" Jule turned around to see someone, she didn't see before when she first walked in here. "Oh. Ello, I'm Jule," she shook Kylie's hand. "So how did you find this room?" she asked her. Telling from her height and slight shyness, Jule could tell Kylie was a first year. She's only met a few of them, since they were mostly in classes or doing homework.

seusslover14 · 10-31-2009, 03:03 PM

Kylie shrugged. "I have a taste for adventure." She said, wittily. "I was bored.. so I decided I'd explore the castle a bit." Looking around the room once more, she became curious of how the other girl found this place. "What about you?"

Destiny · 11-04-2009, 10:35 PM

Destiny stopped in front of the door. This seemed like the right place. She was breathing heavy from practically running up all them steps. 'I think this is the place.' It didn't really seem like a place to hold ghosts. Who would make this room anyway. Getting a burst of bravery, which seemed to happening a lot tonight, she opened the door. Mouth hanging open, Destiny stepped closer but couldn't get any nearer. She turned to look at Evelyn and shrugged. 'I can't get in!'

So turning to face the opened door Destiny yelled, 'Myrtle!! Are you in here??'

"What do you mean you can't get in?" Evelyn frowned, taking a little step closer. Putting her hand out, she found that she couldn't get any closer. Like an invisible wall was placed there. "Guess the 'spirits' or whatever really want their privacy."

Moving a little back, she suddenly had a sense that she didn't want to be here, or shouldn't be here. Taking a few more steps back, Evelyn leaned a little sideways so she could look into the room, noticing all the white sheet covered furniture, and dust, and spider...webs...*shiver* Yup, that was definitely the reason. "Myrtle?" she called quietly, shrinking back a little. It didn't seem like a place the ghost would be, but you never know..."You there?"

Destiny watched as Evelyn tried to enter the room. Standing on her tip toes to try to see over Evelyn and into the room. She figured the room would look much different but what could she expect from a bunch of spirits?
It didn't seem like any spirit or ghost was in the room. Destiny was now getting frustrated with this ghost hunt. 'MYRTLE WHERE ARE YOU?'

'Do you have any other ideas?' Destiny asked turning her back to the door.

'Do you have any other ideas?' Destiny asked turning her back to the door.

With a frustrated sigh, Evelyn leaned against the wall, pounding her fists onto it while closing her eyes, trying to think of what to do. "If I were a ghost...namely a really weird one with glasses that's probably obsessed with Jake...where would I be?" Taking a few deep breathes and thinking of anything that might help them, her eyes suddenly opened in realization. "I ...would be stalking Jake. But we don't know where he ran off to!"

Still leaning on the wall, Evelyn turned to Destiny, crossing her arms and legs and let her head fall to the side on her shoulder. "We need to find these two quicker than our pace at the moment. Who knows how many people are looking already. So forget the ghost for a moment. If you were LouAnn, where would you run off to..." Trailing off, she suddenly rolled her eyes. "I didn't even think about checking the Gryffindor common room. But she was probably running after Jake. Then where would Jake go? If he went to his common room than surely she wouldn't be able to go as well. But then where would she go? She seemed upset...maybe to talk to someone? Or back to her own common room..."

Rambling to herself, Evelyn started to walk back and forth, wall to wall, staring down at the ground. "Maybe Jake went to go talk to somebody? But who...and would LouAnn still follow him? And where would this ghost be after she disappeared. Not in the bathroom or Spirit room...Merlin we need those house points!" Too much work and too big of a castle to find two people...umm...one person and a ghost!

Destiny stared at Evelyn as she talked, and talked and talked, nodding every once in a while to let her know she followed what she was saying, or tried to follow. 'Well I was wondering why Jake's name wasn't on that parchment from Kazi? Maybe he already has him?' So if Myrtle and LouAnn were actually following Jake, Kazi would already have them, so there would be no need for the wanted piece of parchment. 'I don't think they would go after Jake. A group is easier to catch than a single person. They would've split up.' Or at least that's what Destiny would've done.
But where would she go to be alone? Not the common room, too many people there. Maybe outside somewhere, but it was awfully cold to be hiding out there. The library? It was a 'quiet' place and not to many people would be there since they were all at that Death Day party. 'If I wanted to hide, on the day of a party, I'd go to the library.'

Evelyn thought over what Destiny had said. It was true, they would have split up to make it much harder to find them, but what she said about the library was what caught her attention. The library? Really? Well, that's where Evelyn would go too. She loved to read and she always hid in their family library at home when upset or angry. "The library?" she repeated, weighing the option.

The library was the opposite way of the Gryffindor common room though. If they were wrong, then they would have to run ALL the way back up to here...Sighing, Evelyn stopped pacing and looked at her friend. The library did seem like a good choice to hide..."Alright. C'mon! Someone might already be there if LouAnn is there!" Grabbing Destiny's hand, Evelyn started to sprint off towards the library, hoping that it was the right place and hopefully they got their first.

Shana lead the way to the spirit room. "And here we are." Woah. She sounded like some person giving a tour, which she was in a way but she was no tour lady nuh-huh no way. She shrugged and began to walk around the room. "There didn't seem like there were many ghosts in here.

Evelyn stood just outside the door, reluctant to go any further. Yup, it was the ghost room. The room with all the spider webs and spiders. Evelyn could probably take on any other creature in the whole world...except spiders. Eight legs and the bazillion eyes were just not natural! And the way they walk...and eat...and the webs...

"Great. Cool." she spoke with false happiness. "Know any other places than this one?" 'Anywhere else!' she pleaded in her mind. Her voice was a little higher than normal, and she stood quite still, just in case a spider saw her move and decided to attack or something. "Or we can just go...and walk...somewhere else."

Shana turned around at the sound of footsteps and saw Evelyn standing by the door. Yeah, so she was expecting it to be Evelyn but she had to check she looked at her strangly before gesturing her to come in. She looked around the room once more and shook her head, where were all the ghosts ? Probably off somewhere flying around the castle seen as there were no people around. No people expect for them.

"Why you scared ?" She joked, not acctually aware Evelyn was scared. "OkayOkay uhhh how abotu the forbidden forest ?" She smirked remembering the other day when she pretended to be a ghost and scared Evil-Little-Evan Loving-Lyra witless.

The Forbidden Forest? Now there was a place Evelyn could handle, and it already brought a few pranks in mind, but they were mostly for Shana anyway. "Yea, that sounds great. Though it is night time. You sure you're not going to be scared?" she laughed, smirking evilly, inching away until you could only see half of her face.

"And I'm not scared." Evelyn spoke defensively, crossing her arms and coming into full view again. Technically the forest would have spiders in it too, but they weren't noticeable like the ones in the spirit room. "Do I look scared?" She raised an eyebrow.

ChloeeCloverr · 11-25-2009, 08:02 PM

Shana headed towards the door and smirked. "Scared me ? Pfft. I almost made a second year cry in their the other day, I preended to be a ghost and she got well scared and then I dunno if sheever got out presume she did." She shrugged and walked out the door.

"Uhh not at the moment but you did before."

"Uhh not at the moment but you did before."

"Maybe your eyes are just playing tricks on you." Evelyn waved her hand, shrugging both comments off. "Ghosts are stupid. Except the Bloody Baron...he actually creeps me out." Nodding her head and staring off into space, she remembered their encounter in the common room and at the Death Day party. Not the best memories.

Shaking out of her thoughts, Evelyn turned back to Shana and smirked. "So we going? Have to make it out of the castle without getting caught though. Should be easy enough." Yup, definitely easy enough.

ChloeeCloverr · 11-25-2009, 08:23 PM

"Getting caught wouldn't be so bad you just run and then act like the professor must've saw something. Now c'mon lets go". she smiled heading out the door.

"So true. 'Tis why I said it was easy enough." Evelyn laughed slightly, not even sounding like a laugh really. Just a small forced chuckle. Watching Shana head towards the door, she gestured next to herself and down the hallway. "Lead the way." she kindly spoke, letting Shana walk in front of her before she herself followed, staring right at the back of Shana's head. The Forbidden Forest was definitely going to be a treat.

Jule smirked. Adventurous,ehh? "You're not alone there. I happen to be the same way when I'm not crammed in work," she said. "Me? I just found this room by accident. I hadn't really explored much of the castle since I first got here last year," Jule explained, putting her left hand behind her head. Lousy how the now thirteen-year-old didn't know every inch of the castle yet. Then again, who did?

Kylie smiled. "Well, even through extreme exploration, I doubt anyone could really know this castle." She took an anxious step, meeting new people was always a bit nerve wracking for her. "..well, except maybe the ghosts. They've probably got the place wired." She added a bit of humor in to lighten an already casual situation.

Star-Lord · 11-28-2009, 06:22 AM

"True," she smiled. But Jule took notice at Kylie stepping back. "Uneasy meeting new people?" she asked. "Once you meet more and more people, I think you'll be more open and relaxed," she assured her. Jule started thinking back at the days when she was a firstie.

Kylie smiled, nearly laughing. "I know, it's just that I have a habit of making bad first impressions. I've been starting to get over it. It's not new or anything, it's always been like this. I seem to be messing up less though." She pointed out. She looked at the wall opposite her, "It's been a year to remember, eh?" She asked casually once more. She couldn't believe her first year at Hogwarts was already coming to a close, the whole thing had passed by so quickly--it truly was unbelievable.

Star-Lord · 12-05-2009, 06:02 AM

"Maybe you're nervous about being in a new school and seeing LOTS of new people," Jule said to her. Jule remembered her first day at Hogwarts. It was awkward, since she really didn't know much people at the time. "Yes, it has and a strange one to add to that," she said.
