Viktor was walking slowly down the corridor, minding his own business. He heard whispering, and turned around, expecting to see those gaggles of girls which followed him everywhere.

Nothing.

Shrugging, he continued to walk, forgetting about the whispers, which only got louder as he walked. He turned again,

Nothing.

Getting annoyed now, he stopped and shouted,

"Who's there?"

"Don't shout!"

Viktor spun around, looking for the speaker. He was very annoyed now and began running down the corridor looking around.

"Don't run, you scalley-wag!"

"Watch out!"

Viktor stopped and turned angrily.

There were a dozen portraits all waving at him.
