Weird Happenings in the Room of Requirement
Finding Hermione
Luna was skipping down the third floor corridor at an obscenely late hour, humming softly when she bumped into Neville. Luna looked up quizzically at him. All of the color seemed drained from his face and he was sweating profusely.
"Hello Neville, is something wrong? You seem a little bit. . . odd today." Luna said in a singsong voice, thinking fondly of getting back to her room. I should start on that charms homework, thank goodness it's not due until next week but --
"Oh Luna! I'm so glad I ran into you! I've been trying to find anyone who can help out, it seems that everyone else is asleep, you've got to come with me."
Luna was highly taken aback, thinking why would you want me to help Neville? You haven't even spoken to me since that trip into the Ministry of Magic.
Neville gave a more pleading look to Luna, "Luna, this really can't wait!" With that, he simply grabbed her arm and rushed her up the stairs.
After running up several flights of stairs, and going through what appeared to be a painting, showing a secret passageway, Luna had become utterly bewildered. "Um, Neville? Where exactly are we headed, and what happens to be so awful that you need my help?" Luna pleaded, trying to catch a glimpse from Neville to give her any indication of what was going on.
Neville was panting slightly, as the two of them continued to run up the stairs. "It's Hermione! She's somehow been trapped in the Room of Requirement. I wish I could explain more but it's all a little confusing."
Luna looked slightly crestfallen, letting out a quiet sigh of despair. Of course it would be something about Hermione. He's always had a little crush on her. I'm sure the two of them were off studying something for their NEWT exams. Why would I even think he'd be whisking me outside the castle to the lake to confess his undying love for me? Come on Luna, that's a fantasy of your own that you'll never share with Neville.
Through Luna's thoughts, the two had finally reached the right corridor. Luna stopped in her tracks, a puzzled look on her face. Instead of a blank canvas of wall where the Room of Requirement was usually hidden, the large door was in plain view. Something's not right here, she thought. Why has the door already appeared? You normally have to walk by it thinking what you want it to turn into.
Before Luna could begin to state her confusion Neville pulled open the door and rushed her in. Something was definitely wrong. She looked into the room with a complete look of horror on her face. What has happened!?
