A/N: This chapter happens the same time as the last chapter.
The girls opened the door and walked into the empty corridor which was lit up by candles on the wall. They put their torches into the bags and walked down the corridor slowly. Hermione opened a door and saw an empty classroom, which had broken desks. She closed the door, looked back, only to see Chloe looking inside the opposite room.
"This one's empty, too." Chloe said, closing the door and walking with Hermione. "So who is this Doctor person?" Chloe asked her.
"He says he's not human and he travels in space and time. Apparently, he's got a time machine." Hermione explained.
"Cool," Chloe said. "Where is it?"
"Somewhere by the lake, I think." Hermione said. "Right, we'll go to the dungeons." They made their way downstairs.
The girls searched almost every room and corridor in the castle and decided to search outside. They went to a portrait which led them outside into the Slytherin Courtyard and they searched all the courtyards.
"Maybe we should go to the Quidditch pitch." Chloe said.
"Good idea." Hermione said, and set off toward the pitch.
When they reached it, they saw nothing. They searched the whole perimeter and still-nothing. They decided to go to the Black Lake and walked slowly and carefully. Hermione checked her watch: 9:08pm. She wondered what the boys were doing at that moment. Then they saw the TARDIS. A blue police box-the bluest blue ever. The girls stared at it.
"That must be the TARDIS." Hermione said, walking towards it. She pulled the handle and was surprised that it wasn't locked. What she saw made her eyes widen and her mouth open in surprise. She saw the TARDIS's interior. The control room was massive, with four staircases leading onto small pathway full of doors. She chuckled and said in amazement, "It's bigger on the inside…" She turned back to Chloe, but Chloe wasn't there. "Chloe?!" she yelled. She went back outside and slammed the TARDIS door shut.
"Hermione…I found something." Chloe's voice came from the Forbidden Forest, which was quite near to the lake. Hermione ran up to her, her torch lighting her way.
"Chloe! Where are you?!" Hermione shouted, running into the Forest and pushing leaves out of her way. She finally saw Chloe staring at something.
"I'm here, Hermione." Chloe said. Something about her voice wasn't right. Hermione saw what she was looking at. It was a hand, made of stone, and it was coming through the bushes. All that could be seen was a wrist and the hand.
"What is that?" Hermione said.
"I don't know, but I don't think it's a gargoyle." Chloe said. "I'm going to move the leaves away so we can see what it is."
"No, Chloe! What if it's a Weeping Angel?" Hermione said, sounding alarmed.
"Well, how else are we going to find out where Neville is?" Chloe said and she started moving the branches and leaves out of the way, cutting them with spells using her wand. Hermione and Chloe stared at it.
It was a statue of a woman, her hands out to grab something and its mouth wide open, showing its teeth. The girls froze on the spot.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!" They screamed.
