Dungeon Corridor
 

Down the staircase to the left of the main staircase in the Entrance Hall lie the dungeons of Hogwarts. In order to reach the various classrooms, dungeons, and the Slytherin Common Room you have to make your way through the creepy, dark, corridors...

Anyone? :)
 

Iris left the common room with an advanced Transfiguration book in her hands. She was on her way to the library, to see if she could find anything else to help her out a little.

She'd been rather bummed since realising that the new Transfiguration teacher was in fact one of Borr's minions. Ministry Aprroved teacher. Whatever the man's proper title was. It meant there'd be NO chance of Iris getting any help from the man.

Oh, why had she left actually ACTING on this want until so late?

Sighing as she walked, Iris knew she'd have to leave any possible learning-to-become an Animagus until she'd graduated. Which, she supposed could be a good thing. That lack of distraction meant she'd have more time to be a brilliant head girl, and an even better girlfriend.

"I wonder where this leads..." Tayla wondered, trying to peer through the dark corridor. She was exploring the Hogwarts castle. Being a Gryffindor, she stayed in the higher floors more often and so decided to check the lowest place she could find. Tayla felt a cold, creepy feeling run through her skin. Remembering a spell from reading one of her textbooks, she took out her wand and muttered, "Lumos!". Tayla smiled. She just did her first little bit of magic. Smiling to herself, she took another step and looked around. "This probably leads to the dungeons," she thought. "Looks like the perfect place for it." Although curious, she stepped back and decided to get back to the entrance hall. Now was not the time to go exploring dark places. "Nox," she said, making the light from her wand disappear. Tayla grinned widely again, pleased with herself, and walked back up the staircase.

Sierra didn't say a word as she stalked away from Professor Lafay's door and headed into the dungeon corridors. "Hufflepuffs," she spat, half to herself and half to Evelyn and Bissy, "Salazar should have just told Helga to shut her trap when she decided to take the lot of them." She didn't stop walking and mumbling in annoyance until she was at least a few feet away from that blasted corridor she'd met up with Michael in. She hated him--absolutely hated him, and now he'd killed what little hope of a friendship they might have had.

No, never a friendship. She took that thought back. It would have been more like--a mutual understanding to be decent toward one another. With a huff, she turned around to see if Evelyn and Bissy had followed her. After all, at one point and time, all three had been on their way to the common room.

Making note of who the Hufflepuff kid was, Evelyn crossed her arms in a rather bored manner as she followed after Sierra, raising a brow when she suddenly started to grumble about stuff after a little moment of silence. The younger Slytherin really didn't like Hufflepuffs did she? Somehow, those canary yellow folk found it their calling to fly on over to the girl as if she were a magnet. Hmmm, yes, Evelyn remembered the muggle studies lesson in which a sea of yellow surrounded Sierra. Eesh.

However, what did surprise her was Bissy. Glancing at the girl out of the corner of her light hazel eye, Evelyn quickly turned back to looking at the ground as she continued down the corridor. While she couldn't exactly agree that boasting about curses outside your Head of Houses' office was a particularly smart move, Bissy had pretty much been on Sierra's side, and that...was conflicting. She didn't want to like Bissy. Darnit!

Best just...nod at what Sierra said. And not walk into walls. Right.

That boy was a total and absolute idiot. "Those types shouldn’t be allowed in Hogwarts" she thought knitting her brows. The boy’s words went through in her mind; he called her a coward. Nope, not at all; she wasn’t. That’s because Bissy didn’t want her house to lose points even before the term started. Ooh, idiotic Hufflepuffs… She had heard how imbecile they were from her parents but she couldn’t imagine that much. Then she caught Sierra’s muttering and laughed at her remarks; she was reading Bissy’s mind. The blonde girl followed Sierra with Evelyn down the dungeon corridor.

Evelyn didn’t speak a word after they started to walk towards the common room. Bissy wondered why and looked at Evelyn; her eyes were fixed on the ground. She kept looking at her for a few seconds but the dark-haired girl seemed highly interested in the floor. Well, if she didn’t want to look at her… Meh!

Several seconds passed before it occurred to Sierra that neither of them had actually said much upon entering the dungeon corridors. Sierra thought it best to give herself a few more seconds to settle down before attempting conversation again. She was seething in anger over that Michael White idiot and his equally idiotic comments.

When she finally managed to calm herself down enough to carry on conversation, she first turned toward Evelyn. She gave her friend a look, a look that she wished could say something about how Bissy had unexpectedly taken up for her. Sierra had, up until this point, decided to completely side with Evelyn and quite possibly give Bissy the most unwelcome of welcomes to Hogwarts. She wasn't sure what to do now...

"How did you get lost from the others anyway?" she asked Bissy, not really sure what else to say.

Having been staring at the ground, she didn't really see the look Sierra had given her. She heard Bissy's laugh however, yet that didn't help her decisions. Well, no, it actually did. It was annoying and helped her thoughts move into the more 'someway to keep her silent' direction than becoming her friend direction.

Yet the young Slytherin's question to Bissy had her looking up, her gaze first settling on Sierra before it turned to her should be enemy. Hmm, had she said something about that before? Evelyn couldn't remember actually. Her thoughts probably clouded her memory. Yet, she still kept silent for the most part.

...Or maybe not. "Do you need a map?" she said quietly towards Bissy. Hmm, she may get lost to the classes. Not that that would be a bad thing, hehe.

Bouncy!Pirate!Lili!Nommy!Lion
 

Anakin had no idea how he landed himself in the DUNGEONS of all places. He didn't like dark places, they messed with his sight. Which he relied HEAVILY on. Super super heavily actually, t'was all he had. Anakin snuggled into his robes, yawning a little bit before continuing down the corridor.

He really had no clue where he was going. But he was going. He was down here already, so might as well go ahead and glance around to see what he could see yeah? If he could see anything.

OOMPH.

Anakin found himself pressed against a wall, and nearly fell at the sudden impact. Merlin. It wasn't THAT dark, yet he was having issues seeing. Where ALL his senses impaired?

<______<

Jory :glomp:
 

Ariadne walked down all the way to the dungeons, which, truth be told, where a rather gloomy and creepy place. But the girl wasn't scared, of course not! Gryffindors should be brave, right? So she marched ahead, only slightly disturbed by the lack of light.

Ari had only been in the dungeons for her Potions class, but now she was there for a whole different reason. She wanted to explore the castle, bottom to top, with her Hufflepuff friend, Jory. The firstie looked behind, to see if he was following.

'I'm sure there must be something interesting down here.' she told the boy. 'It's a very mysterious place.' the firstie added. 'We must be close to the Slytherin Common Room, right?'

Oooh! That silence. She was feeling like a third wheel flocking after Sierra and Eve. She was aware of the fact that the younger snake was like a cat on hot bricks. Only a person as daft as a brush would like to mess with her at that moment. She looked at Evelyn out of the corner of her eyes. Josh was right to fall in love with Eve. She was a very beautiful girl and nice towards Josh. The blonde girl was peeved at herself. Shame on her for thinking such good things about Eve!

She startled with the sudden words coming from Sierra. She looked at her big, round eyes and said:"I had to go to the loo and when I got back, I couldn't see anybody to follow so I made my way towards the dungeons and found myself in Professor Lafay's corridor."

She was walking between them, then. She heard Eve's question - almost just a whisper and why did she have to speak quietly? Huh! - and she saw red. Did she think asking such a question would be funny or trying to humiliate her before the younger she-snake was fun? She didn't know maybe it was just an innocent question. Meh! That wouldn't matter. She turned her head flipping her hair towards Eve and glared into her eyes and said: "Oh, I don't think I need one. Thanks for your thoughtfulness, Eve. I can find my way to classes I think. Or you; as my classmate, housemate and roommate, can gently escort me to classes, can't you? But I don't think I'll have to bother you with that so don't worry." *snort*

Jory followed his Gryffindor friend down to the Dungeons. He hated dark and gloomy places, but didn't fear it. Here, at Hogwarts, he had gotten used to dark and gloomy because of Potions classes.

He was still excited at the thought of discovering the old castle's secrets.
Jory saw Ari look back to see if he was still following.

"I'm sure there is too, and I can't wait to know what it is," he replied. "Yes, I think we are. I heard some first year Slytherins talking about it being under the lake."

for Deniz ~ sorry it's sooooo lame
 

Ok. So he did agree to go to the nurses office if Evan would teach him magic. BUT that didn't mean he wanted to be CARRIED towards it!

"Y-ya! put me down , i've got legs you know!" Daichi said, cheeks blushing as he punched the Prefect on his shoulders. Not liking it one bit to be carried out like this. Back at the dormitory, he had thought they would WALK but when Evan decided to carry him he felt... how did he feel? embarrassed? yes that's the word.

Pfft. Evan was well aware he got legs--legs that he used to mess with the beds--but he couldn't let him walk now. What if he had a serious injury of his brain? No, there was no way Evan was risking this kid, he didn't need a dead body at the very first night. And never mind he couldn't see the damage might worsen with this slight upside-down position he was holding him.

"You might have a concussion!" he said, climbing the stairs up. "You cannot walk like that! Don't worry, I won't hit you anywhere... you'll feel like you're flying on the clouds." Hehehe.

You all pretty she-snakes! ;) :D
 

So there was a secret place, a corridor, here in the dungeons. The Snake's Territory. Well, since he was not scared of even an army of snakes, it was no problem for Josh to be the young male lion walking alone in the dark and cold snake territory. Heh. That was right. So, he was up to finding that secret corridor and of course kicking any Slytherin out his way was something he was quite capable of. Yet the lion boy doubted that was going to be necessary for Slytherins were not idiots. Well...at least a majority of them were not idiots. They were not Ravenclaw birdies who, unfortunately, he had to face everyday on the seventh floor.

On the other hand, he had to deliver this message he had to Lafay. Yep, he was quite determined to do that. Glancing down at the parchment in his hands, he put it back into his pocket right after a slight grin just before turning a corner....

...only to find himself almost face to face with...THREE she-snakes! Evelyn, Bissy and Sierra. They made it too many cunning she-snakes to handle at once and no wonder they were worse than that army of snakes he had thought of previously. They were like an army each plus they had that dangerous girl's mind which could never be predicted.

So, giving the girls a playful half smile, the Gryffindor quickly took his wand out its holster and pointed it at the girls defensively. ''Just let me free. I am too young for this!''

Eh, Evelyn still didn't think that excuse was good enough. She could've gone to the loo after knowing where the common room was. It would've been the smarter move to do of course. While resisting the urge to roll her eyes, the hazel eyed she-snake glanced over at Bissy as she named off everything they were already. Classmates? Housemates? Roommates? Good Merlin, there was no way she could find any room to add 'Friend' in there too. Obviously, it just wasn't meant to be.

That solved that little inner conflict she was having for a minute. Thank goodness.

"Well, just make sure you know where your classrooms...and bed...are before you use the loo again." Smiling sweetly, she held in a chuckle as she looked back forward, feeling a bit better now. It was like a weight was lifted off her shoulders...and heart. Trying to be kind to Bissy for almost a day was killing her. And everything was changing for the better now! Before, there was this dark and slightly gross looking corridor she had to stare at, but now, now it was her handsome and oh so amazing boyfriend in her line of view.

Wait, wasn't he JUST with Lafay...? Aw who cares. "Oh Josh." she giggled, moving forward and plucking his wand from his hand. "Don't you know it's better to cast the spell than to stall with words?" Hmm, now he was wandless against two talented Slytherins. She didn't know if what Bissy said she could do was actually true as of yet sooo...just two Slytherins.

With a small smile on her face, her eyebrows may have knitted together in confusion as she looked down at the hazel wood wand. That didn't feel right. What...was that?

Oh, yeah! So that little charming she-snake was showing her sharp pointed fangs to Bissy now. The reason was crystal clear: There was no Josh to be seemed lovely and cute. How hypocrite she was- and a true Slytherin. "Excuse me but how dare you tell me what to do, Flores? I recommend you not to waste your sweet smiles now. You'll need them when Josh's around, won't you?" Well, if the dark-haired girl wasn't eager to show a bit courtesy, Bissy wouldn't contradict. She could be as nasty as her. Meh!

Seeing a silhouette before the other she-snakes, she realised who it was- JOSH! Her stomach flipped inside her body, her heart missing a beat. Yeah, there he was. The pretty smile on his face could knock her dead. She returned the smile to him and bowed slowly and said: "Hi, Josh!". Seeing the wand in his hand, she was... Oooh! That girl was not different from the Giant Squid in the Lake. She would bundle him up forever if she had been given the chance. Though she felt a desire to put the stinging charm on Evelyn, she got a grasp on herself. With this urge inside, she took a few steps towards the lovely couple. But hang on! There was a different expression on Evelyn's face. Bissy's gaze moved from the dark haired girl to Josh and then to his wand. What was wrong?

Well...

...this was awkward. Sierra had never felt awkward around Slytherins. She called them her own kind and usually had no problem just being her usual, sarcastic self around them. Right now, walking down the corridor with just Evelyn and Bissy, though, she felt sort of awkward. Maybe it was the fact that Evelyn and Bissy had this weird history that sort of automatically made them frenemies. Or maybe they weren't even frenemies at all. Maybe they were just enemies.

...and in that case, Sierra felt this need to be loyal to Evelyn. Evelyn had been there first. Evelyn was on the Quidditch team with her. Bissy, though. Bissy had taken up for her in that other corridor. She'd even seemed like she might hex Michael White all for Sierra. This was confusing. Confusing indeed.

Lucky for her, she didn't have to feel awkward for too long. Wonder of all wonders, it was Josh Carter who made the whole situation less awkward. She smirked at him and laughed as she stopped in her tracks. Well, she laughed until she heard Bissy snapping at Evelyn. Well, that was one short friendship already down the drain. "Lost, Lion Boy?" she half-joked with him. "If it's your common room you're looking for, the stairs are just behind you." With another smirk, she added, "If it's presents you're delivering, though, Lafay's office is just around the corner."

Ohh, how she loved this banter with Josh. She'd also never forget being witness to Lafay scorching his gifts right in front of Lion Boy's face. Heh.

Nika was on a hunt. A hunt for Slytherins. She needed to win the competition between her friends. She just had too and what better place to do it than snake territory? She walked along the corridor looking for a slytherin to hug. She spotted one right away, but she noticed that it wasn't just any Slytherin it was the girl who was always mean to Kurumi. The same girl who had smirked at Nika when she almost got points taken away from Gryffindor in their first year.

Well Sierra be prepared to be hugged. Nika shrugged of her hesitation as she made her way towards the girl she gave her a quick hug and then backed away. Alright that's six.

ooc. Some friends and I are doing a national hug a slytherin day and it's basically a competition to see who can get the most hugs. So don't be weirded out hehe although your charrie can react however she wants :lol:

Still giving them that half, playful smile Josh kept pointing his wand at the girls and just o add more dramatic effect to it he began to play with it doing quick wrist moves rather coolly as if the wand was a sword. Yet of course, this was until his wand was taken out his grip which made him blink in confusion for a moment. Mmmmm...Ha? What had happened? Oh, Evelyn got his wand. Didn't he know it was better to cast the spell than to stall with words? Good question. The smile had been gone yet now there was a mischievous smirk in its place ''Well...apparently not.'' then he replied giving the she-snake an once over ''But don't YOU know just because you have the wand doesn't mean you have won the fight....yet?'' Yup, Josh was still capable of many things with a wand and he was planning to act and show one of them before....

...Bissy's voice greeted and distracted him. So, the lion boy looked at the blonde Slytherin for a moment or so and blinked...again. ''Ah...Hi, Bissy!'' It was nice to see that she had made friends, wasn't it? Well...of course she would...but the idea of her befriending Evelyn and being around her all the time was something that stressed the boy pretty much so he had not really realised Evelyn had found something odd with his wand. Not to forget that he felt slightly embarrassed for some reason everytime he saw them in a close range to each other. ''I hope you are enjoying...''

Thank Merlin the Poisonous Princess was there to chase the uneasiness away. Josh probably never thought he would ever be that relieved to hear the younger she-snake's words of deep sarcasm and taunting, now they were relieving. Phew! Therefore as he eyed the girl, the Gryffindor boy smiled some at her ''There's apparently something lost, but that's not me!'' And whaaaa? Pffft. Of course he knew his common room was NOT here. ''Since you seem to know the spot of my common room so well, even better than me, now i have begun to wonder what attracts you so much with my house? Perhaps a certain someone in it?'' Hahahahhaha. Crossing his arms, Josh began to laugh at the idea...until Sierra mentioned Lafay and presents. Hah! Glancing at Evelyn for a moment, he went on ''Unfortunately, i think Professor Lafay will miss the presents from me this term and she...''

That was the second time that something had distracted him so much that he did not complete his sentence but what could he do? This random girl hugging Sierra was so distractive and....funny as well. Very funny indeed.

BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH!

Finlay smiled before he spoke. "I like the truth..." He smiled at her. Maybe he should've complimented her looks too, but he really didn't want her to think that he was just saying it. Because he wasn't at all. Finlay would tell her in his own time, when it was the right time. Which it really wasn't.

"Yeah...don't want her thinking someone's kidnapped you." Finlay grinned, giving her hand a squeeze. It felt nice holding her hand, like he was meant to do it all the time. But really it hadn't taken them that long to get down to the dungeons, and Finlay felt a little sad that they were there now. He lead her along the corridor, stopping a bit before they got to her common room. "Safely down to your common room Ma'am." Finlay nodded with a smile, kind of hoping that she wasn't going to disappear into her commmon room straight away.

Fallon returned Finn's smile and nodded. The truth was always a good thing. Then why don't you just say you like him? She really hated her subconscious right now. It was starting to get on her nerves. Fallon chuckled and shook her head. "That's probably what she IS thinking actually..." Iris would be somewhat worried.

As they walked down to the dungeons, Fallon couldn't help but relish the feel of his hand in hers. It felt so right. They reached the dungeons way too quickly though. She wished they weren't there yet. She giggled and shook her head at his comment. "Why thank you good sir." Eh. She'd play along. She was in no rush to get back inside. Besides, that would mean letting go of his hand...

"Oh?" Finlay laughed a little, as she leant against the dungeon wall. Hopefully Iris wouldn't be too annoyed that he had kidnapped her for the night. "Well you could've had worse kidnappers..." He smirked at her, before laughing again. He had a feeling that Fallon was probably going to talk about all this to Iris, and part of him wanted to know what she was going to say. Mmm. or Maybe not.

Well she wasn't making her wait straight to her common room, which was always a plus. Finlay smmiled at her, glancing down at their hands. Mmm. He really liked holding her hand, it was part of the reason why he didn't want her to go into her common room. "It is always a pleasure to help a find lady like yourself..." He continued to play a long, before laughing again. Yeah. They were totally the lady and lord of the school. Totally.

Fallon nodded. "I'm never late. So this is really weird." Iris would understand when she told her. Hopefully. Fallon grinned. "Yeah, my kidnapper could have been ugly and annoying. I prefer the handsome one." And here she went again with the handsome talk. Oh well. What was said was said and there was nothing she could do about it.

Fallon glanced down at their hands when Finn did. She didn't let go. She wasn't going to let go until she absolutely had to go back to the common room. "Why thank you." She couldn't help but giggle at their foolishness. It was a nice change of pace from the nothing that she had been doing.

"Oh...." Finlay smiled, swinging their hands a little. Sure they probably looked like that were 5 or something, but felt like being in an immature mood. "I'm sure she'll understand, you were just walking around with the handsome headboy." Finlay laughed, grinning at her. "and I'm glad you prefer me as your kidnapper..." He mused with a smile. He was very glad tht she preferred him. It made him happy. He really wanted her to prefer him, partly above everyone. But he wasn't about to tell her that.

Finn didn't miss her glnaincg at their hands, and he looked up to meet her eyes, smiling at her. She must've liked it too. "I'd be happy to do it again...." He nodded with a smile. He'd be very happy to do it every day.
