open Xerxes walked up the hill and crested the top before the Shrieking Shack came into full view. "Wow" he said out loud, although to himself.
The view of the old abandoned shack was breathtaking. It was a bit creepy, but in a tragically beautiful sort of way. The periwinkle blue sky in the backdrop was a perfect juxtaposition to the eerie house in its run-down state.
Xerxes walked right up to the wooden waist-high fence and looked out at the landscape. He kicked the dirt absentmindedly and tapped the top of the fence with his finger. He was really enjoying his first visit to Hogsmede so far. He didn't have much time until he would have to start making his way back to school, but he did still want to make the most of every second until that time.
