The mirror had come off the wall and Noelle put it down on the ground. It was kinda heavy for a mirror, but then again, not all of Noelle's strength had come back and she still wasn't up to eating a whole lot. That was probably the case.

Noelle barely registered what the others were saying as she glimpsed into the dark space. Her breath caught in her throat and it felt like time stood still for a moment. She wasn't at Hogwarts anymore. She was stuck in the dark clammy dungeon again.

It took a hand on her shoulder to bring her back to reality. Noelle jumped until she realized it was only Sabbie and he was looking at her like he could already read her mind. Noelle looked past him to the two girls. One her cousin, who she knew would follow her into anything. And the other, seeming to be a very inquisitive girl. She didn't want to let them down.

Noelle had never missed out on an adventure. Ever. Clenching her jaw, she forced her a smile and lit her wand. "Ill go first." She stated in what she hoped was a brave voice. She turned back to the hole and hoisted herself up into it, her wand leading the way.
