Do I even need to comment? Didn't think so, so here's the
story:
Hermione wrapped her arms around herself and turned to the side to look at Ginny who was doing the same thing.
"Tell me again why we're standing outside in the middle of the night freezing when we could be back warm in the castle," Hermione said moving around trying to warm up.
"Cause Ron and Harry said to meet them here," Ginny said looking around.
"Right, good bye." Hermione turned to walk away.
"Hey!" Ginny said grabbing Hermione by the arm and dragging her back. "Where are you going?"
"Inside, I am not going to stand out just because-," a hiss cut Hermione off and she turned around to see Harry and Ron by the castle wall. They ran over.
"Where were you?" hermione said in a loud whisper.
"We found this passage way, we don't know where it leads yet, we wanted to show it to you guys."
"When we get back to the castle remind me to hex you," Hermione hissed shivering.
"Does that mean your not coming?" Ron asked.
"Hermione please come, I want to see but I don't want to go without you."
Hermione groaned. "Yes I'm coming."
"Good," Harry said. Her turned and stared at the stones in the wall for a while then pressed on a spot and suddently the whole wall shifted and dissapeared.
"Whoa," Ginny said staring.
Ron bowed mockingly "Ladies first, unless you would like us to go first."
"Oh, don't make me curse you,'' Hermione said at she entered the tunnel.
"Wait up," Ginny said following Hermione.
"Girls," Ron huffed before entering.
"We heard that," Hermione and Ginny chorused. Harry heard a thump and then Ron shout OW. Her rolled his eyes and followed. The opening closed behind him.
The walked for a while in single file, which was all they could do seeing as the tunnel was so narrow. It was dark but the didn't want to put on a light in case someone was here.
After a while, the passage spread out and they could walk side by side. As the passage spread out, the heard a crunching noise.
"What's that noise, I think we're walking on something," Ginny said.
"I sounds like fortune cookies," Ron said taking a few steps forward then backwards. "Someone put on a light."
They heard Hermione whisper Lumos and the chamber was lit up. They all looked down and Ginny let out a shriek. The floor was covered in different typse pf crawling bugs. A few had crept up their pants leg.
"Those are no cookies," Harry said.
"Not funny!" Hermione yelped desperatly trying to sweep the bugs of her.
Ron was standing ridged. Ginny moved around trying to keep her feet out of the bugs and ass she moved back she felt something going down under her feet.
All of the sudden the roof started to move down on them "Oops,' Ginny said. "Ah….I think I did that."
They looked up at the quickly falling ceiling.
"What are we going to do?" Hermione said looking around quickly.
"Just don't touch any thing," Harry said looking along the walls for a lever to stop the ceiling. "Go stand against the wall."
Ginny backed up and crouched down the laid her back against the wall. Then she felt a small hump in the wall move in and spike potruded from the dropping ceiling. Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked at her.
"Ginny!," Harry shouted at her.
"Not my fault! You said stand against wall, I stood against the wall, you told me to!"
"This is not the time to argue," Hermione snapped. She lloked around and noticed a metal handle gleaming under the bugs near Ginny. "Look, I think theres a trap door there, Ginny pull it up."
"You pull it up!" Ginny shouted indicating the bugs.
Ron groaned and pulled up the handle and a trap door followed reveling a small square passage.
"Hurry up, go," Harry shouted, having to crouch down because of the falling spiked ceiling.
Ron looked around then slid into the passage.
"Ginny go," Hermione hissed. Ginny looked at the passage uncertainly "Ginny go or I'll put a centipeid in your hair."
Ginny slid into the passage and Hermione followed, and last Harry. They all slid down through darkness and landed on something soft and squishy which Ron, Hermione, and Harry got off of quickly remembering the plant on the chamber of secrets.
"It smells," Ron said pinching his nosed shut.
"Yuck," Ginny said looking around. They were in a long hall lit by torches, which glowed with bright blue fire. Hermione shivered.
"Come on," Harry said starting down the passage, Ron behind him. Ginny and Hermione looked at each other then followed.
A deep green slime coated spots on the wall and an orange and brown fungus grew on the walls.
"This is so gross," Hermione said.
Ginny nodded making a discusted face.
"Look at this," Harry called and Ginny and Hermione ran to catch up with him.
Before them stood a large door made of silver. The image of a lovely woman was made out in different gem stones. Her skin was made of bright pearls and she wore a purple dress made of amethests. She had ankle lone hair that was made of topazs. Her lips were plump red rubies and her eyes were 2 sparkiling saphires. Her other features that could not be made of gems like her nose and ears were outlined with smooth marble. A golden handle was on the door.
They stared at it amazed.
"Well, are we going in?" Hermione said. She pulled the handle and slowly the door opened and light poured from inside.
They stepped in. The room was a large circular chamber. But what amazed them was the walls where made of mirror. There was a large golden glob which imited a steady glow of light in the room. Other than the orb the room was bare. They walked around the chamber, their footsteps echoing through the chamber.
"Well this was a bust," Ginny said. "But I do love all the mirror in here," she said twirling around.
Hermione walked around silently. She was about to say something to Ginny when she noticed something bright on the floor near the center of the chamber. A first she thought it was only a piece of broken mirror but as she got closed she saw it wasn't. It was a necklace. It was made of a round amethyst orb the size of a walnut, held by a golden setting. It was on a golden chair which had a tiny amethyst as a clasp to keep it around her neck.
She picked it up and stared at it. The orb sparkled and looked mist for a while. She couldn't tear her eyes from it and a deep adoration of it suddently started to bloom inside of her.
"Hey Herm," Ginny called snapping Hermione back to life. "Did you find somethin."
"No," Hermione said quickly shoving the necklace into her pocket. "Just a broken shard of glass."
"Come on, we're leaving." Hermione turned and followed Ginny, Ron, and Harry out of the chamber, her hand in her pocket absentmidedly stroking the amethyst orb charm lovingly.
Hermione wrapped her arms around herself and turned to the side to look at Ginny who was doing the same thing.
"Tell me again why we're standing outside in the middle of the night freezing when we could be back warm in the castle," Hermione said moving around trying to warm up.
