Herimone's Diary
September 5
The Great Hall
I can't believe what happened. Seriously. I can't believe it. There's an intruder in the school and the school is on a complete lock down. Here I am in the great hall, along with all the other students, even though it is the Great Hall it's a tight fit. Snape is ordering people around, much good that is doing. Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall look really worried and keep whispering about something. Anytime anyone tries to sneak a listen, they move or change the subject apparently. Everyone's on their last nerve and completely nervous. I'm surprised a fight hasn't broken out with all the tension, you could cut it with a knife. I can hear the wails and crying of girls... Some people aren't taking it well. Not that I blame them, I mean I'm not sure what is taking over the castle. It happened so fast...
The day had started out bright, cheery, I thought that maybe Harry, Ron, and I could have a picnic outdoors. We had gone to dreadful double Potions but halfway through the lesson, some kind of siren sounded. Snape suddenly got pale which is actually quite interesting considering how pale he already is. I could literally see the difference. When he ordered us to follow him, none was us objected. He opened a passage I had never seen before, probably for emergencies, and we all followed through. It was quite cramped and it was pitch black from the moment we stepped in. I had to have Harry and Ron pick me up so many times because I kept tripping. We eventually ended up in the Gryffindor common room and we had to pack, Snape said. Everyone was flying around, clothes, pillows, and make up all thrown around. I packed as much as I could. And next thing I know, we were in the Great Hall.
The professors are trying to be brave. They have to be. They say it's probably nothing and in a few days the ministry will have it all figured out. Please. Fudge hates Harry. He'll delay it as much as he can, but since there's more than just Harry, it might come faster hopefully. I think we'll have to figure out on our own. No matter how many questions I ask, they won't answer them straight forward. It's so frustrating. I suppose they think someone will go out and try to fight this thing. Maybe that's why they're not answering questions. Maybe I can ask Dumbledore...
It's interesting all of us here. Of course the tables are gone, and it's almost covered completely with sleeping bags. The professors keep looking at the doors every two seconds. They've done all the locking charms they can, but that'll only hold for so long...
But basically we're prisoners. We're trapped inside Hogwarts and there's nothing we can do about it.
