More emptyness. Hugo looked on his watch. It was 5 in the morning. That would explain some. He looked around. He knew there was a passageway behind the mirror, but couldn't ever get in because it was a couple of mean Slytherin guys' hangout place. But, now, he could explore. Alone. That way if he would horribly die, noone would have a trauma from seeing him die. That was the way Hugo's thoughts went. The mirror peeped as he opened the passage way.

"Accio."

A beam of light errupted from his wand. He was rather good at spells, he already could perform at a 4th year level. Now, off on an adventure. Hugo felt the walls of the passage. It was a bit small, but he hoped this would take him somewhere outside. He wanted to go outside in the morning to meditate as the sun rised, but teachers wouldn't let him. As he got more excited, he bumped against something. Merlin's beard, a dead end. Just Hugo's luck. How would he ever get out and fight crime and stuff?

Arabella-Marie wandered up to the mirror and stood a bit away from it, she already knew that most of the passages in the school were blocked and stuff but she had read all about the famous harry potter's experiences when he was at Hogwarts and thought it would have been fun to do if the passages were still open

Tennessee have reached the mirror. Well, it's nice to be in new places sometimes - or often. She haven't been here before and she saw someone had been there first before her. it might be nice to befriend her since it's only the start of term. She coughed, "Uhhum." then she bounced near the girl. "Hello," she said as her gaze fell at the mirror which seemed to be hiding something.

Simon was walking anywhere, he hadn't really decided where he was going and he had no idea where he was heading, he was thinking about things when suddenly he bumped into something or was it someone, he looked and realised that it was someone who looked just a bit younger than himself. "I am really sorry." He said, he didn't want to get into an argument, though it was clearly this girls fault that he bumped into her, she should be taller then he would have seen her.

Arabella-Marie looked at the boy and said "It's okay i shouldn't have been standing in your way if you were heading away somewhere important" Arabella-Marie hated being small even with big heels on she was not much over 5ft even with heels on

Simon smiled. "I'm Simon Leonarder De Simpson, but my friends call me Simon." Simon wondered where he was. "Okay this might seem a daft question, but where am I?" Simon looked around he hadn't been here before, well not what he could remember anyway.

Arabella-Marie smiled at Simon and said "Pleasure to meet you Simon, I am Arabella-Marie Kingston more commonly called Arabella by friends and you are at the mirror on the fourth floor it used to have a secret passage before when Harry Potter was at school here"

Was she a phantom or something? She mused over as someone had bumped unto the girl she had been saying hello with. Hmmm. But nonetheless, it was fun to watch them both. She walked a little closer at the mirror and studied it. There used to be a passage here somewhere, right? and it's no longer available if her forgetful mind would serve her well. She brushed her brunette hair and sighed. A little adventure would be fun, she thought. She then remembered something. She hurriedly left..

Simon looked at Arabella. "It's a pleasure to meet you too Arabella." Simon smiled before looking concerned. "How did I get so far away from where I wanted to be, I left the common room with the plan of going to the lake but I end up on the four floor." Simon smiled. "Well it doesn't matter, I'm glad I meet you Arabelle." Simon wondered what to say next.

Arabella-Marie laughed and said "Yeah it can happen to us all Simon, i mean i was heading back up to my common room from the lake and i must have taken a detour and ended up here, i am always getting lost"

Simon smiled. "I think I should see if anyone has a map of Hogwarts." Simon laughed. "It would be cool if I had that map that Fred and George give to Harry, I think it would be very useful." Simon said truthfully.

Arabella-Marie's eyes lit up and said "That would be so cool Simon but we have no idea what happened to that map after Harry had it" Arabella-Marie thought that it probably had been lost sometime after Harry had it during the dark times

"That's true." Simon sighed. "Though if someone can make one how hard can it be." Simon smirk. "Though I doubt I'd be able to make one, I wish I knew someone who could but unfortunatly I don't."

Arabella-Marie sighed and said "Well i did have a map made for me by my older sister Poppy but i lost it last year and i still wish i had it but it would be cool if we made our own map Simon and then that way we will never get lost anymore"

Simon looked at Arabella. "Maybe we can go ask a Professor for some help." Simon wondered which Professor he would ask for help, he would never go to Professor Lafey's Office after what she did to him and JD last term, he couldn't believe what she did and someday he would get her back for the detention. "Which Professor would we ask though?"

Arabella-Marie thought and said "Really that i have no clue about Simon but i would be avoiding asking Professor Lafay cause i don't like her much"

"We could try Mr Gevrik, he did say in the start of term feast that he was worried about our safety and surely getting lost comes under that, so surely he would be happy to help." Simon wasn't scared of Mr Gevrik and was sure that he would help them, if they told him why they wanted one.

Arabella-Marie nodded and said "Yeah i suppose your right Simon i think we should go and see him pretty soon"

Simon looked at Arabella. "Just one thing." Simon suddenly realised something. "Does anyone know where his office is?" Simon didn't want to be walking around for ages.

Arabella-Marie shrugged and said "Don't know but i guess that is something we can work on together finding out where his office is"

Simon smiled, he was glad that he had accidently ended up here because he had made a new friend. "Okay then, I think we should try and find his office, at least we won't get lost." Simon then realised something. "Saying that if anyone says are you lost to me I'm going to say I never get lost, I always know where I am I just don't know where anything or anyone else is." Simon laughed.

Arabella-Marie nodded and said "Yeah let's try and i am hopeless for getting lost i have a poor sense of direction so i always end up in places i dont mean to go but hey it is a good way of making new friends"

Simon decided that he would try on the first floor first. "Why don't we see if his office is on the First floor, or we could try near the headmasters office, it could be around there." Simon was trying to think this through.

Arabella-Marie nodded and said "Yeah i think we should try near the headmasters office first and then the first floor" Arabella-Marie liked Simon already and was glad that getting lost on the way back up to the common room was worth the effort
