She hopped in the cart and tucked her limbs inside. The cart was much smaller than she remembered, but that made the journey more exciting. She gripped a handle inside the cart as the vehicle started zooming down to the vaults.

Quazi sat back rather comfortably and enjoyed the ride. Miss Jones' vault wasn't all that far into the vault, but it was nice to just sit for a bit. The ten minute walk had tired her a bit.

The cart coasted its way through the darkness and finally came to a stop after some thirty minutes. There weren't many drops or turns, so it was a pretty calm ride compared to others.

As the cart rolled to a stop, Quazi jumped out and grabbed the lamp. Making her way over to the vault, she removed the key and proceeded to unlock the door.

Standing back as the vault open, Quazi nodded. "Vault Number 283."

So she couldn't see how tall people managed to get wherever they were going without feeling really cramped. She was starting to see why Gringotts was staffed by goblins, though. Smaller was better, and she was just thankful she wasn't claustrophobic. Maybe it was the dim lighting.

She nodded as Quazi turned to her, announcing they were almost to their destination. Perhaps things got wider when they got there. Or taller, at least. Taking a breath as they came to a stop, she ignored the slightly musty, cave smell as her blue eyes went to the goblin again. "Thank you," she said with a smile as she listened to the rules. Hands and feet inside the cart at all times. It was like a Muggle roller coaster, and she hadn't been on one of those in a while. Probably more recently than some who came here, but to her it had been a while. Stepping carefully into the cart, she took a seat and made sure she had a good grasp of her purse before watching as Quazi joined her. "Is it very long of a ride?," she asked conversationally, before laughing a little as the cart started moving. Speeding up. It was exactly like a roller coaster. "Apparently not," she said, answering her own question. And then she squinted as she tried to watch the walls zooming past, trying to see if they were just cave walls or if they were going past vaults yet. Now she just had to wait until they got to her new vault.

Sliding low in the cart, Quazi whistled to herself. "The ride is....well, you will see." she replied. Okay, two hours was not short but sometimes time did have a tendency to fly and all.

Whistling again, Quazi stared forward as her eyes began to adjust to the darkness. The cart was rapidly moving down the track and soon entered a series of narrow corridors. The air was a bit musty and that was sign that they were moving a bit deeper into the vaults. It wouldn't be all that long before they would reach their destination.

100's

200's

300's

400's

Darkness.....and then the cart dropped slightly and a faint rawr was heard in the distance. Bunny was on the move again it seemed, which meant they did need to hurry it up a bit. A hungry dragon was not something that Quazi wanted to encounter today. Willing the cart to move a bit faster, the cart soon crested a hill and dived down toward the next level of vaults.

Now. Vault 695. Here we come.

Quazi glanced back at the witch behind her and nodded. The cart quickly passed through several corridors as it made its way pass the 100's and then the 200's. The faint sound of water echoed against the walls as they rapidly approached the 300's and then the 400's.

Yes, it wouldn't be long before they would pass the 500's and then enter the next level of vaults.

Easing himself into the cart, he took a steadying breath. The ride was atrocious, but he supposed necessary. All in the name of security...

Though, he secretly thought the goblins enjoyed the queasy wizards.

Quazi hid her amusement as she settled into the cart and looked forward. For some reason this wizard amused her so.

Silently, Quazi sat as the cart continued on its way. Passing the 100's and then the 200's.

Picking up speed, the 300's and then the 400's zoomed by as the cart dropped and proceeded toward the 500's.
