The panel slides back and you enter a room which main feature is a huge mirror, or perhaps it is a window. In any case, it is easy to see that someone is trapped behind that window. You can't quite make out who the person is at first, but as you get closer you realize that the person in danger appears to be your Head of House, Professor Shackleton. This is not good!
You will notice that there are two doors here, one of which will return you to the school. This is the door on the left. But if you choose the other door, the one on the right, you can choose to stay and help your professor. | |

Dominic blinked as one moment his hand was on black and gold colorings, but the next it was hovering in midair as the panel slid back to reveal a room with a mirror. Or a window. Nonetheless, the fourth year dropped his hand to his side as he entered the shallow room, hardly noticing if anyone was with him or not. That was when he saw the figure: Professor Shackleton, the strange Arithmancy professor who always seemed to be eating, was trapped.
Opening his mouth in shock, the fourth year looked back to see the panel close behind him and reveal a door. One door back to the school or to safety. The other on the right would lead him to help Shackleton. Now was his moment to act selflessly; to follow his personal month number and do something for others. And thus, Dominic's decision was made for him. Taking a few slow steps, he placed his hand on the right door handle and opened it...

Aly stepped into the room, curious about what's in it. She glanced around the room and saw a mirror and two doors. She took a closer look at the mirror and was shocked to see that Professor Shackleton was behind the mirror.
She heard another door open and looked over her shoulder, seeing another Hufflepuff in the room. She was curious as to where that door led. She followed the other Hufflepuff through, her curiosity getting the better of her.

Just as Dominic was about to press down on the door handle, Dominic heard someone shout. Narrowing his eyes, he turned around halfway in time to see a younger Hufflepuff whom he had seen once or twice in the corridor, as he shuddered slightly at the last encounter with her.
"Ssh. Would you keep it down?" he whispered hurriedly, turning his focus back to the door. Honestly, shouting for her would not help anything ... though wait, was this a trap?!
The room was dusty, as though it had not been used for thousands of years, yet here was Shackleton behind the mirror or window. Seemingly out of place, considering how young she was. Gulping nervously, he released the handle, staring at the door for a few moments as though it might attack him.

Kayla had decided to follow her fellow Hufflepuffs to see what was going on and she found herself in a room. "Denton, what's going..."Kayla looked at the window and she stopped short..."is that Professor Shakleton?"
She looked around the room and noticed another couple of doors. "Do we have to go through there to save the Professor?" Oooh this was exciting, they could be heroes.

"What do you think is going on?" She asked, staring at his hand on the door handle. She wrinkled her nose at all of the dust in the room. Hopefully, she wouldn't sneeze and ruin the silence.

Turning around again at the sound of his name, Dominic sighed when it was none other than the blond girl from the courtyards. "Winters. I can see you have eyes, as yes it does appear to be Professor Shackleton," Dominic started, turning back to study the mirror and door.
Hearing her comment on saving Shackleton, and then the younger girl about what was going on, Dominic just shook his head. "I don't know. That's what I thought initially, but it wouldn't make sense. Professor Shackleton is barely pushing forty years old, where everything up to this point has hinted at thousands of years old."

Kayla rolled her eyes at Dominic. "Don't need to get all snippy about it Denton, I was just making an observation" she retorted. Honestly that boy drove her nuts, she had a good mind to...nope better not!
"This is true" Kayla commented although she really had no idea what Denton was talking about. She was here because it looked like a bit of fun. "Maybe it's just a trick to see if we're stupid enough to go in there after her...hmm might be an illusion and if we go in there, then perhaps we'll get stuck" she shrugged it wa just a thought.

"Oh come on, guys. How about instead of fighting, we figure out what to do?" She asked, taking a couple of steps towards the mirror. "I dunno whether or not it's safe to touch it.." She reached out, but kept her fingers a few inches from the mirror. She sighed and dropped her hand, looking up into the 'face' of her head of house. "Does anyone remember the clues?"

Dominic sighed as Kayla starting whining about something or other. Rolling his eyes, he had no patience for her remarks right now so he just chose to ignore that comment.
Fighting the urge to retort back as to why Kayla wasn't there going after her yet, Dominic bit his tongue. Best not to say that at all... "So if going through this door is out of the question, then doesn't that leave us with the only other option of the other door back to the main part of the school? And I don't know about you, but I didn't come back here just to return to reality so soon." Besides, if they did get stuck then at least he wouldn't have classes anymore ... or... OH NOES! He'd be stuck forever with two females! YIPES!
Dominic turned instead towards the other girl. "Fighting? Who's fighting?" he asked, shaking his head as the girl was about to touch the mirror. "I don't think it'll bite you or anything. I mean I touched the door handle..." he shrugged, although could careless if it did bite her fingers off. "The last clue? It was just a piece of a map that joined with the other houses, forming a topographical view of the Great Hall. Leading us back here... But after the crest, the clue is useless."

Kayla let out an exasperated noise in the back of her throat. "Well neither did I" she said as she marched up to the window or mirror or whatever it was. "No point in standing around and talking about it, I say we do something...now" she reached out with her hand hesitantly at first and then decided what's the worst that can happen and threw caution to the wind as she always did. One moment her hand was touching nothing but air and then it came into contact with the glass.
She looked back at the other two. "See nothing to it."

Ross followed the rest of the hufflepuffs into the room "So what is it we are going to do" he half whispered to the rest of the people that were there.

Which door have you chosen? Have you chosen the easy way out of this place, or have you decided to take a stand and try to save your Head of Household? Whichever choice you take is bound to have lasting consequences, so choose wisely!

Elan followed the gaggle of huffies to the panel and his jaw dropped. He tapped the closest one? "Are we going to stand here, or do something?"

Jess also followed the fellow Huffies and was shocked to realise that their Head of House was trapped. And then there was a decision to make: go on or return.
"We didn't come this far to just give up, right? We have to stay and try to save Professor Shackleton! We can't return now..." the girl said, looking at Dominic, because he was the most familiar to her of all the other housemates standing there.

Ross decided to take charge and walked straight up to the door that professor shakleton was behind, Shaking the door to try and open it he remembered a spell he had read out of a book so taking his wand out of his pocket he pointed it at the lock and said "Alohamora!"

Slowly, the door on the right side begins to open, as if of its own accord. It is totally impossible to see what is on the other side of the door, it appears to be very dark inside there. If you wish to set your Head of House free, you must pass through this door. Now is the time to make your decision!

"We obviously have to go through that door if we want to save Professor Shackleton.." Aly said, turning to look at the door. Her eyes widened as the door slowly started to open on it's own. "We need to go through it.."
Aly stepped closer to the open door and squinted into the darkness to try and see what was in the next room. It didn't help. She pushed the door open all the way and pulled out her wand. "Am I going by myself, or is someone going to come with me?"

Elan looked around and most of the people appeared motionless except for Aly. He followed behind her. "I'll go with you." he told her, pulling out his own wand, though he wasn't sure how much good it would do as he was a first year and not sure how much he would remember.

She looked over at Elan and grinned. "Anyone else?" She asked, twirling her wand in her hand. She was anxious to get started. "Who ever wants to follow us can." She turned towards the door and walked through it. She pointed her wand out in front of her and cast the 'Lumos' spell.
Even with the extra light from her wand, she couldn't see much. She walked forwards again, her other hand out in front of her to make sure she didn't run into a wall.

Elan followed the green glow of Aly's wand as he placed a hand on her back so they didn't get separated.

Ross wanted to quickly get the professor so lighting his wand up with the lumos spell that he had learned in first hear he walked past the other two people hoping that he would get there quickly and get out of the dark and spooky place.

Elan hit the wall as someone bristled past them. "Hey buddy. Wanna show a little consideration?"

Aly reached back to grab Elan's hand, trying to assure him that everything was okay without saying anything. "You might want to stay with us. You might get lost and not know how to get back." She told the other boy. "I don't feel like going to find someone who gets lost. Either you stay with us, or you have a bigger chance of getting lost. Which one is it?"

Kayla looked at the others and then peered through the door. "Lumos" she muttered and her wand lit up. Seeing that she and Denton were the eldest ones here, she gave a little sigh. "Would you like me to go first?"
