 All of you ^^ urine trouble | Pat's Strong Confident Other Half | Pees Like a Champion Unicorn Racehorse
No one near the scene of the crime and not a chance that anyone in the West Tower could've done something like this. It wasn't as though he suspected anyone in Ravenclaw Tower but it did make the situation slightly more serious and less likely to be a prank. Pranks could be dealt with pretty easily - depending on the severity of the prank and who was involved - but something worse was...... well.
And then Kitty mentioned the portal incident, making Hirsch frown as he strode quickly alongside her. "I.... don't know. The portal was meant to have sealed off when the two poltergeists went through it so unless another one has opened up somewhere else, I don't think it's the monster." Unless it has found another way to enter the castle. "Let's see the damage first and then we can decide where to go from there."
Under any other circumstance, he would've felt quite proud that the Head Girl had answered the riddle so confidently but seeing as this wasn't the time, no mentions were made. Instead, he scrambled through the hole and made his way towards the staircase that led to the Girls' Dorms. His wand, which had been out during their entire journey here, was now being pointed in the direction of the staircase itself. Anyone near him might have heard a small whisper of incantations as he lifted the spell that stopped him from entering the dorms.
Up and up they went, the Defence Professor following Kitty's lead up the spiral staircase, past Sam and Miss Primeaux, until......
..............
Er.
This didn't look good. Not at all.
Something else it didn't look like? A prank. A thought that made a heavy feeling settle in the pits of his stomach. Someone, for some bizarre reason, might possibly want to search the girls' things, but to tear down the room entirely? The frown deepened and, wand still held aloft, Hirsch stepped carefully into the room. For a long time, he didn't say anything but simply looked at everything that was strewn about the room. Everything was taken note of: the clothes, the bed sheets, the miscellaneous items that had been in the drawers, not to mention the contents of pillows and the holes in the bedding themselves. Every once in a while, he bent down to examine the contents on the floor even more or to see if there was any kind of trail or obvious signs but.....
.... sigh.
"Someone has gone to great lengths to demolish this room," he finally muttered, standing up from near a window and turning towards Sam and Juni, "Has anyone else come in here while Kitty was gone? Or even walked past?" Possibly looking fishy but that wasn't always the case. "Because, unless they have a grudge against the girls in this tower, it looks as though they were after something." You wouldn't ransack a room for no reason....
