A. N. I told you I would try to do the next chapter sometime today.
Okay, I think the first chapter wasn't that good. I'm very sorry about
that. Hopefully this channel will be a bit better.
Chapter Two
Since September 1st had landed on a Friday that year there weren't any classes until Monday. Having gotten bored of the common room by Saturday afternoon, the Terrific Trio decided to go exploring. There had been a rumor, started by the Weasley twins, prankster kings (as they has started calling themselves) that the new teacher had moved into a tower and didn't live near where most of the teachers lived. They had even speculated where. So Harry and the gang decided to look around.
Hermione and Ron were bickering like usual when Harry shushed them. Just then McGonagall's voice was heard in the next corridor over. "So Clyna, you moved to the east tower?"
"That's right. Near the statue of Merlin on the third floor. Come by anytime. Just touch the staff."
"I'll remember that. Good luck, these students will run you ragged."
"I'm a healer; I can at least keep them from killing each other."
The two teachers laughed and moved on. The three smiled to each other. Not even Fred and George knew how to get into a teacher's quarters. Their smiles soon disappeared.
"So, Perfect Potter going to try to get into a Teacher's quarters?"
"Hello, Malfoy." Harry said dryly. "It's really none of your business."
"Bet you're scared."
"You're off your rocker! Harry isn't scared of her!" Ron cut in.
"I've heard rumors she's a wraith!"
"A what?" Harry asked.
"A wraith. You don't want to mess with them. They can drain you of all your energy. So is Perfect Potter scared of a widdle wraith?"
"No I'm not scared!"
"Prove it!"
"I don't have to prove anything to you! Now go away."
"You're just a chicken!"
"I don't see you doing anything."
"I dare you to go into her quarters. Leave a prank or something."
"Why should I?"
"I knew it. He's chicken. Come on. Let's leave the scardy-cat alone."
"Fine I'll do it." Harry knew this wasn't the wisest thing in the world but something about Malfoy pushed all his buttons. If going into a teachers room was going to get Malfoy off his back, then he would do it. He started to reconsider when he saw the smirk on Malfoy's face but decided to ignore it. Hermione obviously thought this was a bad idea, but she wasn't going to say anything in front of Malfoy. And Ron couldn't keep his temper around him any better than Harry.
They reached the statue in a surprisingly short time. Harry took a deep breath and touched the end of the staff. The statue moved to one side and stairs appeared. Taking another deep breath he started to climb them. He nearly had a heart attack when the statue closed behind him. 'Just breathe. You can figure it out when you come down. He finally made it up to the tower.
He blinked several times once he got up there. It was very different then he expected it to be. First of all it was warm and cozy. From what he had seen before of the east tower, He expected it to be cold and drafty. There was even a smokeless fire place. In front of the fireplace was a comfortable looking armchair, with a cat asleep on it. Next to that was a book on a small table. There were two bookshelves that were still empty, and various objects likely used as a teacher or healer. There was a magic clock; it looked like a grandfather clock. There was a magic hovering globe. There were also a lot of knick-knacks. Harry looked them all over. Okay she liked dragons and tigers. Was this a warning sign? He smiled at that thought. She obviously hadn't finished unpacking yet, there was still a multi-locked trunk and a small suitcase. He was about to look inside the suitcase when he heard a voice. "Hello, Harry."
