Into the Rabbit Hole
Chapter One
As I drum my fingernails on the desk I stare into the void of a daydream where the solitude of my social life and the feelings of apprehension disappear. With each collision of nail to desk, I slowly fall into my own sub consciousness. I fall into the rabbit hole.
Faster and faster I fall, passing images of home, flying, muggles and students. The images begin to blur together as I pick up speed, I'm falling deeper and deeper. Feelings begin to push through my mental barrier, I feel happiness, sadness, anger, alone. I try to fight back against the feelings but the harder I fought the angrier and more powerful the feelings became.
I hit rock bottom. The chamber I'm in is tiny and the walls are covered in tiny holes. My heart starts to compress, I can't breath, I race to one of the walls and pound my fist against it yelling and screaming. The wall in reply begins to leak through the holes, I attempt to cover them but the water won't stop. In a snap second the chamber is full with water but the room is too small to hold it all.
The room bursts.
"Ingrid".
The walls of my daydream crash down as I am shoved back into the painful world of reality. My eyes are stinging and my face is wet. I have been crying. I look up to find the entire class looking back at me, all but one, Malfoy. They were all staring with dumbstruck looks on their faces, their mouths wide open and their eyes flickered between boredom and curiosity.
"Ingrid, I will not tolerate any of this foolishness in my class" opined Snape as he stared blankly at me.
I began to furiously mop the tears from my face to stop myself from becoming more ridiculed then I already am, as he continued.
"Now, with that juvenile display out of the way, why don't you answer my question?" insisted Snape,"what is the name of a creature that is reanimated by a Dark Wizard to do his or her bidding?"
"An Inferious?" I questioned longing in my head that I was right.
"Indeed it is" replied Snape gloomily. With that he turned around, promptly asserted "Class is finished" and stormed out of the classroom.
