Quazi nodded as she checked that all hands and legs were securely inside cart. All looked secured as the cart started to move slowly into the darkness. Slowly the cart started to descend down an incline and into the dimly lit tunnel. Quickly, the cart picked up it speed and soon arrived reached the first level of vaults.

They reached the bottom of the corridor after a good hard and long walk and Sturnik turned around and looked up at the woman.

"Show me your key."

Hunter yanked the small, iron key from an inner pocket and presented it to the goblin. Wooo. That was quite a hike, and Hunter was suddenly wishing she'd worn more sensible shoes.

"Thank you." Polite goblin here.

He got in the cart and waited rather impatiently for the woman to join him.

Eep! Silently, Hunter hopped into the cart with the goblin and seated herself. Okay. Here we go, yes?

Preston followed Quazi as she lead him into the dark corridor. He suppressed a shudder. The carts and dips and speed were so terribly unpleasant.

He supposed he could make small talk, but then again, she was a goblin and that just wouldn't do.

And so, instead, he quietly followed behind.

Maggie took her wand back with a smile and placed in the familiar and well-used pocket of her long grey robes. Yes of course, she said, a slight bit apprehensive as she followed the goblin. It wasn't that she was frightened of it or where she was going, but she had never been within the depths of Gringotts and the stories made it quite intimidating!

Alice had simply nodded as Quazi agreed with her observation about preferring things that weren't difficult. She'd been too distracted by the goblins running around, not to mention the other witches and wizards in the hall. Wondering if they were others who worked in Diagon Alley, or simply others in the Wizarding World. But the comment the little goblin had made did make sense. Sometimes people just had to deal with difficulty. She certainly had, even just dealing with difficult people. Photographers and such, although she had a feeling there could very easily be difficult people while running the shop as well.

She tried to pay attention, though, while Quazi had her wand. It didn't seem like it was in any danger, but not having it close to her sort of felt like a little piece of her was missing, so she found herself keeping a close eye on it as Quazi tested it. A smile crept onto her face again, though, at the compliment. "I'm sure the creator would appreciate that compliment," she said, before nodding as the goblin had noticed the appearance of a key and continued speaking. "Certainly. I'll keep both in a secure location, and since I always have my wand with me, that shouldn't be a problem," she replied, taking the parchment and slipping it into her purse for now, along with her wand. And checking to make sure the bag containing that which she was planning on depositing was still there. She hadn't thought there were any pickpockets around, but it paid to be safe. As Quazi slid from her stool to stand in front of her, she ruffled her hair again before glancing in the direction indicated. "Of course," she said. Dark corridors were intriguing, even though she imagined this one was simply leading down to the vaults. Or to however they would be transported to the vaults. It was still intriguing, and she followed Quazi inside.

Okay. She understood, things can go slightly messy at work sometimes. Sienna knew that, perhaps. Except Ian was the one focusing on the many issues they had.

Sienna nodded. Vault 695. Bring wand and key whenever one is coming back. Okay. Sounds good. Ooooooh, here comes the key. And here comes the corridor.

"Okay, sounds perfect" she said, as she followed the goblin through the corridor. Eek, this part she didn't like, whatever the luxury must have been in the Great Hall, it all vanished here. Perhaps because it wasn't necessary? Yeah, right. But, she followed.

After quietly making the nearly ten minute trip down the corridor, Quazi stopped just before the cart and extended her hand. "Please show me your wand," she requested.

Quazi slowly lead the way down the corridor. The torches ahead of them dimly lighting their way. It was a fairly quick journey compared to the journey they would soon be on to the vaults themselves.

Stopping at the bottom after their ten minute walk, Quazi motioned to the cart. "Do keep your hands and legs in the cart at all time," she announced as she allowed Miss Littelton to enter the cart, before entering herself.

"On last thing, if they are any forms of food on you, I'd advise you dispose of them now. Bunny has been known to smell food and we wouldn't want Bunny to come looking for the source of the smell," Quazi voiced before the cart began to move slowly down the track into darkness and the first level of vaults.

Quazi quietly lead the way down the corridor deeper and deeper belong the bank. The journey was only but some ten minutes but with the dimness of the path and the confided area, it could possible feel like it was a lot longer. Yes, the spacing and lighting of the place didn't bother her, but again she was rather accustom to it and she was a smaller creature.

Turning to check back on Miss Ravenwood, Quazi nodded. "We are not to far from the bottom," she voiced as she continued on downward.

Stopping at the bottom, she reached for a lamp and motioned to the cart. "Please enter the cart and remain seated at all time. Hands and legs in the cart at all time," Quazi said as she stood aside. It was the normal spiel and all, but she needed to repeat it to each and ever being that entered. Protocol and all.

Waiting for Miss Ravenwood to securely and safely enter the cart, Quazi followed suit and entered the cart herself. Giving a final check to ensure that they both were securely in, Quazi nodded and sat back.

Within second the cart began its journey as it slowly moved down the track. Quickly it began to pick up some speed and soon was zooming down the dimly lit track toward the first level of vaults.

OCC: please post in the given thread.

Quazi quietly hummed to herself as she lead the way down the dark the corridor. In the distance, the sound of water was heard and a roar of sorts. Yes, Bunny must be awake. Perhaps they would see the dragon today.

Continuing on, Quazi stopped at the end of the corridor after ten minutes. Turning to Miss Knoll, Quazi smiled and motioned to the cart. "This way toward your vault, miss." she said as she reached for a lamp and held it near the cart. "All legs and arms should be kept in the cart at all time and do remain seated as well." It was a messy situation if those rules weren't followed.

Bouncing on her heels sightly, Quazi entered the cart after Miss Knoll and settled in after ensuring they were both securely in. Accidents would not happen on her watch. Looking before them, the cart started to move slowly down the track. Entering a small incline, the cart then began to pick up speed as they continued to move down to the first level of vaults.

Preston blinked and stopped short as the goblin in front of him came to a halt and spoke to him.

Ten minutes in near silence, simply walking, and he'd taken to thinking of other things.

"My wand? Yes, of course." Preston smiled tightly, extracting the sturdy beech wand and placing it in her hand.

Daphne Jones followed Quazi towards the poorly lit corridor. She tapped her fingers against her side; she was excited and nervous. The trip down to the vaults, as she recalled from childhood, was a tad terrifying.

She instinctively checked her pockets for a key, but realized she'd yet to receive one. "Excuse me, Quazi. I haven't gotten the key to my vault," she said quietly to the goblin. In addition to being poorly lit, the corridor was eerily quiet, though she heard dripping water echo down the hall.

Quazi gave the professor a nod as she took the wand. Pulling it into the light and her line of sight, she examined it closely. "Beech....." she mused as she rolled it in her palm. "Interesting, heartstring of dragon." It was a nice piece of work, she thought at she handed it back. "Yes, now we may proceed. Do keep your hands and legs in the cart at all time and please refrain from getting up whilst the cart is in motions." Yes, it was rather messy when they stood up whilst the cart was in motion.

Allowing the professor to enter the cart first, Quazi took her seat after and settled in. Just after making a final check to see that all limbs were in fact in the cart, the cart began to move slowly down the track into the darkness that would lead them to first level of vaults.

Quazi glanced back and nodded. "I have the key, miss." she replied as they continued on toward the bottom. "My associate left it for us. No need to worry." she added as they reached the bottom of the corridor. It was only but a ten minute walk, but rather tiresome at times.

Picking up a lamp, Quazi motioned toward the cart. "This way Miss Jones," Quazi said as she stood just beside the cart. "We are almost there. Do please keep your hands and legs in the cart at all times." Yes, lost limbs were not good at all. The clean up involved was not pleasant at all.

Doing a final check on limbs, Quazi settled in and the cart was soon on its way through the dark tunnels that would lead them to the first level of vaults.

Sturnik grunted as the woman climbed into the cart like it was going to eat her. Wizards, he thought as the cart started to move on the track. It was short trip to her vault. And he was glad for it. Lunch time was coming up.

"Little offends me, so please don't worry. I'm here to help you, so do ask questions if you want." she replied. It was her job after all to assist with anything vault and bank related.

She smiled at the goblin, still far from reassured. She dropped her bag to the bottom of the cart and looked directly at Quazi, stealing herself. "Miss Quazi...I must ask...no offense meant of course...I must ask...why do-that is...in general...through out history...it seems as though goblins want to use wands...I-I was curious...why? You are certainly more powerful than I am." Arjuna eyed the goblin before her, bowing her head slightly to show her humility. She would most likely not enjoy this trip to her new vault.

Hunter seriously considered giving the goblin a SQUEEEEEZING hug once they were back in the light of day. Next time (there will be NO next time)... next time she was bringing a companion to cover her eyes and act as a human seat belt.

"Thank you very much," she gave him a solemn nod and tottered off toward the doors. After that adventure, Hunter deserved ice cream. If only she hadn't just put ALL her money in her vault.

Quazi nodded as she considered the question. That was a question she had never encountered before, but a good one at that. "Personally, I don't want to use a wand," she replied. "I know that some of us want to, but I do believe it's a matter of being denied something completely," she added. "Wands do fascinate me, all the different kinds and all." Yes, she didn't want to yield a wand, she did have magic and it wasn't as the lack of a wand lessened it. "I take no offense at all, Miss Fonseka." she smiled. "It was a good question and I hoped I answered your question."

Quazi liked this witch, she was polite and polite witches made for pleasant trips. Double checking to that both of them were securely in, the cart began to move down its track toward the first level of vaults.

Ian chuckled. For the first time today, he was genuinely amused. Perhaps the trip to the vault wouldn't be so mind numbing. Hoshino followed the Goblin and stopped close to him. Sucking in a breath, Ian made sure to fill his lungs while he still could and wasn't fighting to keep his lunch in his stomach. "Here comes the best part."

He looked back as the wizard laughed. Oh that couldn't be good for business to have laughing wizards all over the place. He shrugged as they descended down into the depths toward the cart. He waited for the wizard to climb in first and Sturnik followed. "Hang on to your lunch," he grinned. The cart started on the four hour journey and Sturnik leaned back and was planning on taking a nap.

Erik moved his arm from around Kenzie's waist and grabbed her hand. "And off we go," he said with a smirk as he followed the goblin. Looking around as he followed the goblin down to a corridor he smirks and lean close to Kenzie's ear and whispered, "Spoooooooooooky." He chuckled and kissed her cheek as he gazed around. It was actually quite interesting but then again he was used to it.

Shivering slightly as she follows the goblin with Erik down a dark corridor. Her hand tightly in his. A shiver goes down her back when his breath tickled her neck while whispering in her ear. Laughing nervously she smiles at him. Feeling the kiss on her cheek she feels a little more reassured.

Sturnik grunted as his knees creaked. He was going too old for all this running up and down to the depths chasing after wizards. But there was no way he was going to let one run amuck alone in his precious bank.

They made it down to the tracks and a cart came whistling over and stopped right in front of them. He motioned for them to board first and then he climbed in. It was a short ride to the witches vault and he was glad for that, but the ride to the wizards vault would take at least 2 hours. "We will go to your vault fist," his long finger pointed at the witch. Her vault was the first one they would come to anyways.

Helena held her key tightly as she followed the little Goblin into the corridors. She could tell just right here that she should have brought a jacket with her. It was probably going to get pretty cold down there.

She walked paitently, down all of the little staircases and corridors; feeling quite glad that she had a strong stomach. Other wise this cart journey would feel like going to Hell and back.

Katie walked into the corridors, it wasn't any different to what she had expected. She stood and waited for that goblin to help her, hopefully it would be the same goblin.

Dianna was silent as she walked all the way here. She was sure not to make any sudden careless movements as she reached her destination. There she stood and waited.
