The Entrance Hall

Welcome to Hogwarts! You enter and leave the castle through two great oak front doors to stand in the majestic Entrance Hall. There are numerous doors and staircases leading off from the hall as well as the four house points hourglasses

Having dashed out of the Common Room Allison wanted to do a quick run of the grounds with Arya. She had promised Arya and Anastasia to meet out of the Great Hall after the feast.

Out of breath Allison stood at the castle doors and wheezed. She shouldn't have run that fast, almost tripping when the staircases had changed directions and bumping into a wall on one occasion. Placing her hands on her knees Allison looked around to see if her friends were anywhere in sight.

"Arya!" Relief washed over Allison as she saw her friend approach her. She was already debating whether or not set off to look for her when she finally showed up. Looking behind Arya she still saw no sign of Anastasia. "Did you see Anastasia before you came?"

The starting of Term Feast was over so Lucia and Yew her Phoenix left the great hall to find the Slytherin common room. The headmaster did not say anything about Yew showing up, so she guest that it is alright that Yew is there. Now what to do with Yew. As she thought about this he vanished with a flash and left a feather behind. Lucia squatted down and picked up the feather, then she looked around to see if there is someone to ask where the Slytherin common room was.There was no one.
She untucked her locket and opened it up to ask her aunt Bella where the common room was. After all she did go here and was in Slytherin. After getting directions she head toward the stairs that go to the dungeons.

Taking a deep breath she looked around realizing Anastasia wasn't here."She's not here? No, but I told her to meet us here."

"Ahh..I dunno." Allison caught her breath and looked around. Perhaps Anastasia would catch up to them...and then again, maybe not. "Arya, are you sure she didn't go to sleep?"

She had slithered out of her room herself. Didn't want to wake up the other first year Thane. Plus who knew how it would go with those girls. She didn't know any of them and they were all quite perky.

"I just hope I don't crash into Kellen or Ian. I don't feel like dealing with them," Allison groaned.

"She might have, I lost her halfway through the feast. We could always find her later." Suddenly becoming restless again she smiled at Allison's comment about Kellen an Ian. She wanted to get back to the playground."Were do ya wanna go first, I just came from the playground and it was sooo much fun."

Looking at Arya's enthusiasm about the playground Allison thought it best to just go with the flow. "Anywhere really. I'll follow you!" Twining her arms with Arya she set off to wherever Arya pleased. If the playground was first so be it. Maybe they'd get to walk towards the kitchen grounds and know where she was going to be bugging the house elves. It didn't matter, there was much to cover and the night was early.

meet ya in the playgrounds :)
 

"Then its off to the playground we go! You'll love it!"Keeping her arm intwinded with Allison's they skipped off in the direction of the playuground, most likely geting a little lost along the way seeing as Arya was leading the way.

Evelyn walked out of the Great Hall, alone, but feeling happy. She saw a few students she had recognised from her table heading down a flight of stairs. That must be the way.

Anastasia rushed in, breathless. "Hello guys!" She bent over to catch her breath. "Eluding prefects is hard. So what's going on, yeah?"

Allison looked over and saw Anastasia, relief showing on her face, "Excellent you made it! Hurry now, we are going towards the playground!"

Ty ran down to the entrance hall he planned to go out for a walk just to get some fresh air after class. Ty loved the out door and went out every chance he had.

Without any specific idea, Vida made her way towards the entrance hall. She was not hungry and all. But still she was there. Strange. Her needs sombody to talk with now. She cant be alone, not possible for her nature.

Looking around for a company, Vida's eyes spotted a ravenclaw boy. Oh..cool. "Hello!" she approached him from behind, "Can you help me?" she asked, with her big bold eyes twinkling as usual.

Ty turned around and saw a very pretty girl with big eyes whoaI be glad to if I knew what you need help with. I'm Tyberius Toy by you can call me Ty. What do you need help with?

Aw..the boy was so cute. Like his name. Tyberius Toy.

Ty for short.

Vida tossed her now straightened her naturally wavy hair and smiled. "Hi Ty! Nice to meet you. I like your name, honestly, so short and sweet" she nodded her head, "Umm..Are you going to eat now? B'cuz I just need a company to talk with..I..hate tobe alone," talkative Vida was back, in quick time. Haha..

a no, I was going outside for some air. Who was this pretty girl? Would you like to join me? We could walk around the lake or just sit under a tree. Look the girl in her twinkling eyes they almost seem to hypnotize him. What would you like to talk about? I'm sorry I didn't catch your name.

Goint outside? Wow..better than stuffing food unwillingly.

"Oh..okay. It's a great idea. I'd like to share some fresh air under the tree with you too.." she grinned, trying not to mess up with her hair now, not in front of a boy. No way.

"Aw..I'm sorry. " You're a stupid, Vida. well..only sometimes. Haha. "I'm Vida. Vida Chadway, Fourth year huffie and sooooooooo new to Hogwarts." she introduced herself to him as stretching out her hand to him, hopefully.

Taking the girl's hand he turned to head outside. Shall we go. You're new here, where are you from?

Vida grinned. This's going to be really nice and fun. Her first time visit to Hogwarts ground ever.

"Yeah, we can." She was already excited, no reasons needed to Vida tobe happy and bouncy. She's born tobe happy and rule the place where she is. "Umm..Yes, I'm from France. And what about you?" she asked as walking down outside the entrance hall with him towards the ground.

Cadence allowed herself to be led all the way from the owlery to the entrance hall. Where on earth was he taking her? She noticed him heading for the dear. "Woah! Nate wait! Where are we going? We're not going outside are we? It's pouring down rain! And I've had quite enough of being soaking wet in the past few day!" she said with a laugh, referring to almost drowning in the lake.

Wait for me to post on the grounds somewhere. Not sure where yet.
 

"Just come on, we'll hurry." he said pulling her towards the door.

Cadence followed him toward the door and out into the pouring down rain, a bit reluctantly and at a complete loss for why he was doing this to her.

Wesley was camping out.

Right outside the Staff Room.

It had occurred to the teenager, as she had walked to the Start of Term Feast earlier in the week, there were several places she had never been. And this was one of them.

Fully aware that the Staff Room was off limits to students, Wesley had instead settled on sitting next to the door, waiting for a teacher to walk in so she could catch a glimpse of the mysterious, and no doubt fantastic, world of adults.

There was probably an entire case of butterbeer inside, and a slide leading all the way to Floreans. Next to, of course, the couches that were even comfier than those in the Hufflepuff Common Room and a HUGE magic Foe Glass that showed students instead of bad guys.

Wesley imagined there was also a large collection of butterflies and flowers, seeing as Professor Pilliwickle was a teacher too.
