"You ready?" Ursedonah asked Kristie when they met in the common room.

"Yeah, but what are we doing?"

"You'll see," replied Ursedonah with her sneering, mysterious voice.

"At least tell me where the chamber is!" demanded Kristie impatiently.

"All in good time. Follow me."

They headed out of the Slytherin common room and walked quietly towards the bathrooms.

"Here put this on." Ursedonah commanded while handing Kristie a strange silvery robe.

"What is it?" Kristie inquired with a confused look.

"An invisibility cloak" Ursedonah replied in a whisper, "just make sure that it stays over your eyes at all times."

"Whatever," responded Kristie not paying much attention.

"Don't just say whatever. If you don't do it, you may, no, will die."

"You don't have to threaten me! Is this how you treat all of your friends?" Kristie said defensively.

"No. I usually don't tell my friends big secrets like the ones I've told you, nor do I care about most enough to warn them. I'm warning you now. Keep it over your eyes." Ursedonah replied.

"Well maybe I'd rather not have you 'warning' me then.

"You know, I wasn't threatening you. The basilisk would kill you if it looked you in the eye without something covering your eyes. This way you will only be petrified, and I have the antidote."

"Oh…sorry." Kristie said, slightly embarrassed.

They were outside Moaning Mertyle's bathroom.

"Don't tell me I have to wait for you to go to the bathroom! I've already had to wait all day!" Kristie exclaimed with impatient annoyance.

"You don't need to wait much longer, although you should after how you just talked to me, it's in here." They stepped inside. Ursedonah headed to a sink, and seeing the carving of a snake, she whispered, "Hassah!" Suddenly, the sink melted into the ground, revealing a huge hole. "Follow me," said Ursedonah. They slid into the chamber. Inside there were so many statues of snakes that you couldn't look anywhere without seeing one.

Kristie was speachless.

Something stirred in the distance.

"It's awake." Ursedonah announced.
