Upon careful consideration Tobias decided that everyone was gone, and he’d be free to move about the castle and secondly the chances of him running into whatever caused such a panic was zero. Not to mention he was hungry. Chest puffed out he casually strolled down the hall and down the stairs that to lead to the Hufflepuff Common Room. As he made his way he wasn’t exactly quiet, he was humming some tune very extreme vigor.
As he stepped off the last step a frigid breeze came across him, an overwhelming feeling of death filled the corridor. Tobias stopped in his tracks, and swung his head left and right in quick succession. The young boy took a step backward up on to the last step and then placed his back to the cold stone wall. Where in Merlin’s pants could a cold breeze come from? He saw nothing, heard nothing, and smelt nothing but…. Fooooood! The kitchens were near! The death smell was gone, and so was the cold wind.
Tobias was a slave to food; he literally cared about nothing else. Deciding that it was all some weird old castle oddity he continued his journey down the hall toward the ticklish pear. Suddenly something grabbed him; the hand was cold as ice. He struggled to get loose but it was no use. As he tried to see who or what had him the lights went out. Pitch black. With his free arm he pulled his wand out, ”l-l-lu-lum-lumoS!” The tip of his wand glowed and he tried with all his might to reveal the ‘grabber’.
With very move the cold handed being darted the light, ”What?! Who are you?” All he could tell for sure was the thing grabbing definitely had a human hand – albeit wrinkly and old. As he struggled he realized whoever it was dragging him toward Hufflepuff’s Common Room. ”NO! Let me go!” As if obey him the hand did let him go, but then shoved him hard into the stone wall. A gruff female voice spoke, ”Why are you not in your common room!?” The voice was deep, breathy and sounded so familiar. Tobias’ heart was racing; it felt as if it would beat right out of his chest, he knew that voice. ”You could have been killed!” Tobias didn’t scare easy, but a small amount of fear was starting to take hold of him. ”What are you talking about?” The woman’s hand shoved him once more against the wall, ”Why are you not in your Common Room Mr. Welch!?” Tobias’ mouth dropped as he brought his wand to her face, ”Professor Mackaroy!?” Her ice cold hand swiftly found it’s way over his mouth, ”HUSH CHILD!”
As she finished speaking a moan came from where Tobias believed the kitchens to be, ”OH no!” The Professor muttered something about a sausage, the portrait swung open and she heaved him into the large warm room. Dozens of bewildered faces were now staring at him. Tobias looked to where he just came through, it was closed the Professor gone.
Marcus Gillroy, prefect of Hufflepuff house, immediately charged toward Tobias. ”How did you get in here?!” By this time Tobias’ robes were in Marcus’ fist and Tobias was an inch off the ground. ”I..I.. I was heading toward the kitchens.” He squirmed to get a breath, ”And it went cold and dark and Professor Mackaroy saw me and threw me in here.” The boy dropped Tobias to the ground, Why were you not in your common room? Do inferi not scare you first year!?” CHOOSE NOW!
1. Tobias immediately turns and scampers out back into the corridor.
2. Tobias is forced to stay, and allowed to sleep on the couch. After everyone has finally gone to bed hours later he sneaks out in to the hall. |
