"WELL they're definitely overcompensating for something." I mutter to Sam as I gaze at the large glittering castle looming in the distance through the gate.
I hear a pointed cough beside me and turn to look at our guide, who looks highly offended...
Whoops?
Sam sighs beside me, "ignore him" he says, "he's the one overcompensating".
"Thanks, Sammy" I huff in response.
We both grab hold of our luggage once again and begin the seemingly never ending walk towards the castle. Once we reach the main entrance, the large looming doors seem to slowly open by themselves. I give Sam a wary look and head on in anyway. Things can't get much worse can they?
I was wrong... Oh so very wrong...but that comes later
Upon entering the castle (who puts a school in a castle anyway?) we immediately release that there is no reception, in fact here is no one at all.
"What, did everyone else go home? All they're missing is the ghosts playing on the looming accordions!"
The voice behind me does not make me scream, if sam tells you otherwise he is lying.
"Ah, the accordion. I remember those days. Alas, my hands just go through it when I last tried to play"
"Jesus Christ!" is all I manage to spit out as the specter comes out of the wall from behind me, Sam's snickering beside me telling me he already knew he was there, the little shit!
"The names Sir Nicholas, welcome to Hogwarts."
I chuckle, "Sir?"
The floating apparition sighs "Yes, well most of the student body tends to call me nearly headless Nick, though I have asks them to cease..."
Sam looks baffled, but I don't think I want to know.
Nonetheless Sam asks anyway " Nearly headless? How can-"
A voice (thankfully) interrupts him,
" I wouldn't ask that if I were you, unless you haven't eaten dinner that is. . ."
I turn sharply to the right to find a bushy haired brunette chick standing with a small smirk
"You people need warning bells on you." I snap.
She glares, and sneers out "My name is Hermione Granger, you two must be the new exchange students from across the pond."
Sam once again sighs, like this is somehow my fault, "I'm Sam Winchester, and the jerk beside me is my older brother Dean"
"Bitch", I snark back. Hermione's eyes further narrow at my comment.
"You wouldn't happen to know how to get to Headmaster Dumbledore's office, would you", Sam asks, ignoring me, "we're rather lost at the moment."
Hermione smiles at him, "ah, yes, quite simple really, just follow the corridor down past the third suit of armour, then take the hall to your left and follow it until you reach the portrait of the dancing maiden in red. From there take the right corridor to the staircases, and then continue up to the seventh floor. From there walk approximately two yards to the left, until you run into a rather boisterous suit of armour, he is going to tell you a joke, laugh, it won't make sense. From him, turn right and continue until you run into a large gargoyle statue on the right side of the hall, tell it the password and then step on the first stair and it will take you right up."
Sam nods along, while I try to figure out how she is managing to say it all in one breath.
"Thanks" Sam says, "What" I say at the same time.
Hermione waves goodnight and takes a staircase to the left, while i turn to Sam and ask "did you get any of that?" he sighs and walks away from me.
Oh, this year is going to be just awesome.
