Dark Quiet Places

[Hippie<333]

Kylie curiously made her way through the dark, dank underground tunnel of Hogwarts. She had long before surpassed the depth of the dungeons, and it seemed hours ago since she had entered the hidden passageway. She had come across this place by accident whilst brooding about some bratty Gryffindor in the year ahead of her , named Rebecca, or whatever her name was. But she didn't care.

She was too busy thinking, and trying to find her way out of this place for she had never been there before. Nor had she ever known of it's presence in the gigantic castle. But now she did and the only thing that mattered was getting out...and soon as well for she had been waiting for that day to end so she could return to the Slytherin common room and see her Slyth friends....and hopefully Gabriel.

The dark cold tunnel was strung with cobwebs. It was dirty, dust-filled, and musty. Somewhere in the distance she could hear water dripping. There was also a chill about the place and Kylie didn't like it. Though she would not be overruled by it, she had yet to be scared or frightened and she was not going to let that time be now.

She withdrew her wand from her jeans pocket and illuminated it with a swish and a flicker. She continued her journey through but, she lost her balance. She felt someone grab her from behind and screamed loud, her voice echoing loudly......

Melissa started laughing; it had been her that had grabbed Kylie from behind.

When she had finally caught her breath she was able to say, "What are you doing?"

Kylie's breathing slowed down a little bit as her heart rate returned to normal, and she stopped screaming recognizing her friend Melissa's laugh. She took a few minutes to catch her breath before replying to Melissa's question, "I dunno, I was just wandering around, thinking and I suddenly realized that I ended up here." she observed the damp, dark, dank tunnel with a look of disgust, not wanting to imagine all the disgusting creatures that must live there.

"The common room is this way." Melissa said, pointing towards an even darker and gloomier passage way.

[Hippie<333]

"I don't know," Kylie said unsurely, glancing down the gloomy dark tunnel, "are you sure?"

[morellomel]

"Um, yeah." Melissa said with a smile on her face.

"There's nothing down here." she told Kylie reassuringly.

[Hippie<333]

"Okay, " Kylie said, still uncertain but following Melissa anyways, her wand aloft and alight, "if your sure."

Melissa walked on down the dark and damp passage way. Their footsteps echoed off the stone walls, and there was the sound of a gentle dripping of water. Melissa took out her own wand and lit it. The light blinded her eyes for a moment....

"I always take this way to get to the common room." Melissa told her. "There usually isn't anyone down here; actually now i think about it, you're the first one that i've met."
