He looked up at the older student and recognized her from class. She seemed all knowing and smart. Yes. He wanted to run with her definitely. Then she could carry him if his legs gave up on him. Piggy back ride?

"YES!" Carlton exclaimed, resisting the urge to jump on her back. Maybe that was against the rules. And he didn't really know this person. Maybe that was not only against the seminar rules but also social rules. So he stayed put and glanced down at the tunnels. HORRIFYING.

"Okidoks, let's crawl." He got down on his hands and knees and went into the same tunnel as the older Gryffindor girl. So the tunnels weren't very long but it felt like they could stretch out forever so, just in case there was some magic in the air, he grabbed a hold of her foot.

"Don't leave me here in the Yeti-home!" He called to her. "'Cause I got your foot." It is now his. And he proceeded to crawl through the tunnel but NOT loosening his grip on her foot. She was his way to safety, he would not give that up.

You know what was HARDER than climbing up a snow mound? Crawling through snow with a firstie grabbing your foot. Char didn't mind so much though, and had abruptly decided to just go ahead and enjoy the DRAMA of the situation - they were being chased by YETIS after all, even if they were just made of charmed snow!

"I won't leave you!" Charlotte hollered over her shoulder as she shuffle-crawled through the triangular tunnel. "Even if my foot freezes off!"

But for the record she REALLY didn't want to lose a foot if she could help it. She could feel the pull on her foot every time she moved it in that butt-wiggling crawl that really wasn't super comfy on the knees. Even if she was in her winter gear, it sort of seeped through when you were putting weight on the parts that usually you didn't put on the ground.

Not much further to go! Another metre maybe! Not so bad really, she'd sort of expected, at first hearing the obstacles, that it'd be four tunnels to crawl through, not four tunnels next to each other of which you only needed to crawl through one. And there was light at the end of the snow!tunnel! She scooted out of it, her foot apparently attached to a first year, freeing of the tunnel too, and then stood up, grabbing the kid's hand instead. "Come on! Lets get tubes and trees!"

Charlotte pointed at the pile of each and then hurried over there. Soooo they had to drag a tree AND a tube up the next mound?

"Want to share a tube? It will be easier!" For him, not for her, probably. But she didn't mind this either.
