Chapter Two: To Which the Rooms are Assigned
They pulled up to a huge mansion. It was old, and vines crept up the walls. The doors were aligned with black steel. They got out of the car and walked up to the doors. Silhouette opened them and they stepped inside. It was more clean on the inside then it was on the outside. They were in a main room.
"To your left is the living quarters, to your right, the dining room. There's a door that leads to the kitchen from the dining room. You will have people feed you and clean up after you. House elves. Upstairs are your bedrooms. Then there is a library, a game room, and an attic above all that." he said. Hermione scoffed at the words 'House elves.' Harry and Ron snickered. "Your bedrooms will have signs on the doors, telling which is which and who sleeps where. Your wands have already been taken from you. We're a sneaky bunch at the D. O. M. Good day and good luck." He left and locked the door behind him. Draco groaned.
"My wand is gone? This is trickery." he said.
"Let's just go see who sleeps where." Remus offered, and he led the way up the large staircase. Stairs creaked under each of their feet. The house was certainly old, but it kept up well. They came to a hallway, doors lining down the wall. Each one with a sign on it.
"Door number one.." Neville said, when they reached the first door. The sign read, "Lupin; Evans" Remus smiled optimistically at Camellia. She smiled back and shrugged, they went into the room.
It was beautiful, really. It had a large bed in the middle with maroon sheets. There was a large dresser with a vanity mirror on the right wall. In front of the bed was a desk, with a quill and some ink and blank parchment. There was also a door on the left wall.
"What's in here?" Remus walked to the door and Camellia sat on the bed. He opened the door and inside was a large bathroom. It had a shower and a huge bathtub, swimming pool size like that of the one in the Prefect's bathroom at Hogwarts. It had five sinks, with sterling silver faucets. There was soap and shampoo galore. The mirror behind the sinks was also huge. The floor was marble, along with about everything else in the bathroom. Remus smiled. It was a nice room.
"Door number two." Hermione said, when they got to the second door. "Malfoy; Granger" Draco's face was a funny site. His expression was that of confusion, anger, and disbelief all in one. Hermione just moaned.
"What a day, what a day." she said, entering the room. Draco followed, knowing he had no other choice. This room was also very big. The floor was red carpet and there was a fireplace on the left wall. Near the fireplace was a large bookshelf, full of old dusty books. On the opposite side of the fireplace there was a desk, with quill, parchment, and ink. A bed was on the right wall, beside a window. Draco stared at the bed.
"Isn't.." he started, and thought better of it so he just kept quiet. The bed had green covers and a silver snake was on it. Draco grinned.
"Slytherin wins again." he said to himself. Hermione over heard him from her place at the doors that were on the far side of the room.
"Not quite." she said, looking into the bathroom. The towels were red and gold with lions on them and a big "G". The foam and shampoos and soaps were all red or yellow in color. Draco shook his head.
"Stupid Mudblood." he said.
"What was that?" Hermione asked.
"Nothing.." Draco muttered, walking over to the dresser beside the bed.
"Number three!" Luna said, grinning. "C. Weasley; Longbottom" Charlie gave a glance to Neville, knowing his partner wasn't too bright. (I'm going to lose..) He opened up the door. This room was small, and old. It had one window on the wall in front of the door. It had a bed on the left wall and a dresser and desk on the left. The desk came complete with quill, parchment, and ink like the others. There was a door leading to a small bathroom. It had a dinky sink and all the bathroom necessities.
"Oh for Merlin's sake.." Charlie whispered.
"It's kinda nice.." Neville tried to lighten up the mood.
"Numéro Quatre." Ron said.
"What the hell does that mean?" Harry asked.
"Number Four.. In French." he shrugged, "Bill taught me." Harry nodded. The sign on the door was "R. Weasley; Trelawny." (Why me..) Sybil opened the door and they found a room that oddly looked exactly like her classroom. Except there was a bed, dresser, desk, and another door. Other than that, it was exactly the same. Fireplace, kettles, teacups, large poufs. Ron stared at the one bed as Trelawny opened up the door to find the bathroom.
"It'll do." she said. The bathroom wasn't as big as Remus's, but wasn't as small as Charlie's. It had a fairly large bathtub, and two sinks with a mirror behind them. It was okay. (I'm going to die before this game is over..)
"And the last one." Harry said, not even bothering to read the sign. It obviously said "Potter; Lovegood." He opened the door and looked at the room. It was just like a normal room. The carpet was purple. (Eww..) (Aw, how pretty!). The bed was green, purple, and blue with a bunch of pillows on it. There was a small book shelf, only about shoulder height to Harry with a couple books in it. There was a desk with parchment and quills and ink. There was also a dresser with a mirror behind it, and a night stand next to the bed. A door led into the bathroom, which was also purple and green. (Purple and green.. Purple and green.. What is this? Barney?)
So the rooms were explored and things were organized. Angers were flared and then they were subtle. They all found a note on their dressers. "The game starts tomorrow. Enjoy yourselves today. And remember! Stick by your partner, or else they won't stick by you."
