Astra moaned a little bit when she opened her eyes to the darkness. Where am I? She thought to herslef as she reached for her wand. Lumos! She whispered creating a light and started to explore.

Phoenix pressed her ear against the hatch.
"did you hear something?"

(Sure)
"Yeah, someone cast Lumos…" Scipio put his fingers on the rim of the hatch and attempted to pry it open.

Phoenix knew she should call a teacher or someone, but god, did she wanted to do this by herself. well not entirely.

"is it opening?" she tilted her head

"No… step back, I'm not sure how well this will go." Scipio waited until Phoenix had moved back before pulling out his wand. "Bombarda!" The hatch burst open, scattering splintered wood around them.

Soon Astra found a circle of corridors before she heard a bang from her's. "Oh no." Quickly she ran into a random corridor before anyone saw her.

"d-do you see anything?"

She leaned in closer to the hole that was in the floor.

"It's pretty dark, but I think I can get down. Follow if you want and I'll slow your fall so you don't get hurt." Without further ado, Scipio jumped into the hole. "Aresto Momentum!" was heard soon after he did so, and he landed softly on his feet.

"why am i doing this?" She took out her wand and jumped down. Again, Phoenix was used to falling, so it didnt hurt that bad.
I took her a while to adjust to the dark.

"Lumos." Scipio held up his wand as he walked through the darkness, searching for whoever had fallen. He wasn't entirely sure what this place was or how he was supposed to get back up, but that wasn't the problem at hand.

"Lumos.." she whispered, while looking up at the patch of light. She walked around looking for Scipio.
"Where are you?"

The only thing she hears is silence "Hey?"
She rubbed her knees and felt something. She looked up at her hands and saw blood.
"Dang it.."
She wiped the blood of her hands t her robe.

"Over here." Scipio sent a trail of red sparks to Phoenix, leading her to where he was standing.

"thank god…" "um.. weird question, do i have any bl-blood on my face?"
She smiles painfully.

"No." Scipio answered calmly. "Just your hands and knees. Now come on. Homenum Revelio!" He flourished his wand for a moment. "Yes… someone definitely fell down here." He began walking off.

"Yea, because this isn't a creepy place at all…" she mumbles to herself.
She quickly caught up with Scipio.
Her onyx, black eyes shine in the darkness.
"Eeek!" She screams silently.
"Sorry… Just a stupid rat…" She looks at it and gives a death stare.

"Accio Ombra!" Scipio's snake quickly came towards him. "There, she'll take care of it." He hissed something to Ombra in Parseltongue before continuing through the labyrinth.

"Thanks?…" "you can speak Parseltongue?" " stop talking, stop talking now, you'll just make it more awkward"

Scipio nodded. "I don't do it in front of other people very often, since obviously it makes me 'evil' if I can talk to snakes. I figured you didn't really care about the stereotypes."

"Of course i didnt.." "My dad used to speak Parseltongue. Before he went to azkaban… I mean, what? n-no.. ugh…"

So I'm not the only one with a father in Azkaban? Scipio glanced back at Phoenix, but didn't mention it. "I've learned to speak it fluently, so that I can communicate with Ombra."

"i never had any pets… Dad was allergic, and well my mom passed away, so I lived at a friends house… Never a chance. But dont feel weird that im talking about my parents, even if my mom is dead. They werent nice people…" Phoenix sighs and wipes rest of the blood off her hands.

"Where the hell are we?.."

"I have no clue whether my father's alive or not, to be honest… if he is he's gone mad; not that he wasn't already." Scipio looked around the hall. "And I'm not really sure where we are. It appears to be some sort of labyrinth of secret corridors hidden beneath the school."

"Huh… never thought about the fact that my father could be dead. Not that i care…" She looks at the dust flying around the..Hall?

"By the way, sorry about the fact that im talking that much. only happens when im nervous…"
