Chapter 4: Not Knowing the Password

Dumbledore looks at me and tells me that it is getting late. I thank him for telling me about my father before I get up from the chair. I get up very slowly, yeaning from the chair because I am tired. I open the door of the headmaster's office and then I close it. I head up to the Ravenclaw House tower to my dormitory.

When reach the portait that hid the Ravenclaw House Tower, I didn't know the password. The portait asks me, "Password?" I just lok at the portait with a blank stare. How was I going to enter the Ravenclaw House Tower without the password? I was thinking to myself, "What if I have to stay out here until morning and sleep out in front of the portait?"

The next thing I knew was I heard Peeves making quite a racket and Mr. Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris running towards me. Mr. Filch come out from a tapestry with Mrs. Norris at his heels. Mr. Filch yells, "Peeves, I am going to have you thrown out for this. I am going straight to the Headmaster's office." Mrs. Norris spots me and starts meowing to get Mr. Filch attention. I am like saying to myself, "Oh no! I am going to get caught." I hide behind a suit of armor that Peeves didn't destory yet. I crouch down trying to remain hidden from view.
