The stone gargoyle moved aside and Kazimeriz's voice boomed and echoed in the corridor. "Enter."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Plymouth was seeing light at the end of the tunnel for his quest to "Save Cela". Finally - he'd made it back to Krazi's office with everything, including Cela, in tow. Needless to say, he was exhausted. Less sweaty since the staircases had all been down this time, but he was still tired.
"You hang on to the bag, CellBell, and Plymmy will get you all better. Just a second." With his arms full of Cela, Plymouth was left to KICKING at the Gargoyle. "HELLO. OPEN UP." |

UGH loud yelling and kicking.

The gargoyle grunted and reluctantly moved. "There is no need to raise a fuss, Mr. Morgan. Enter." Kazimeriz's voice rang out.

Hogwarts RPG Name: TBD Gryffindor Hogwarts RPG Name: Zara H. Bunbury-Foster Slytherin Fifth Year | Professor Pink | Mrs. Bruce Wayne | I'm on a Goat | Glitterpuff | Dumbledore's Defense Squad | BHB With the giant Gucci sunglasses still covering half her face, her hair hidden under a pretty pink scarf, and a random assortment of watery shoes levitating behind her, Anastasia Bunbury arrived at the stone gargoyle outside Bontecou's office.
She hesitated at the statue, having no clue about how the thing worked. Was there a button to press? Was she supposed to whisper something or tickle the statue's chin? Oh wait, there was a password....right? Probably something to do with being lost or...having glasses....or....that weird nickname Pepe.
Perhaps Bunbury did not know her own boss very well.
Alas, the redhead decided to go with the time-honored tradition of knocking. She grabbed one of the shoes still levitating with her and promptly used the heel to tap on the gargoyle's head three times. There. Now she would just....wait.

Water began seeping through the floor and starting to flood the entrance with the gargoyle and as the water rose, it knocked the statue off its feet, disabling the password.

A pack of grindylows made their way to where the gargoyle statue lay on the ground. A few tried to attach it and nom at it's limbs... but they hurt their lil mouths! NO FAIR! They wanted to get to the fleshy ones!!! So they began pulling at the door and trying to nom at the handle.

Jule reached the gargoyle entrance when her eyes widen even more.
MORE GRINDYLOWS. "okay...slowly back away." she said and carefully tried making her way away from these creatures. She had enough of these things and didn't want anything to do with them.

Coming to the aid of their pretty pretty pets, the Merwomen swam up to the gargoyle and shrieked again but this time with frustration -
A few made a valiant effort to pry open the entrance with their tridents but were only rewarded with failure.
This did NOT make them any more approachable.

Jule screamed as the merpeople swam passed her. For some reason they were trying to get into the headmaster's office. But why? Was he even up there? She just stood still trying not to catch attention to herself and get attacked by them again.

Paris heard the shrieking noise again and raced to see what was going on. The sight that met her made her stop in her tracks. She quickly ducked into an alcove to avoid detection.
The merpeople were trying to break into the headmaster's office. This was very bad. What should she do?

"Whatdowedoooooo?" he whispered, hardly daring to move his lips. All he could focus on right now where their tridents--they looked SHARP.

Reese stopped running when the Gargoyles came into view. She started slowly walking towards the Gargoyles and when she saw the merpeople, her eyes widened in fear. She stopped walking once she came up to Jack and Paris. She sat her bag down on the ground, even though the ground was flooded. She did really care that her stuff was going to get wet. All she cared about right now was not getting hurt.
"What are....they doing?" She asked as she looked at the merpeople. They were trying to get into the Headmaster Office, weren't they? That just cannot be any good! She gripped her wand, but didn't point it at the creatures. She looked behind her to see if Torin caught up with her, but she didn't see him. Oh. She sure hoped the Grindylows didn't get him. Turning back towards the merpeople, she inched closer to Jack. He would protect her if they tried to attack, right?

Unless she had a really REALLY brilliant idea, he was staying right here, behind his silver friend.
He frowned and gazed, wide eyed and terrified, at the merpeople once more before making another high pitched squeaking noise and shaking his head. Quote:

They were NOT going to poke Reese with their tridents. If they were going to, he'd...he'd...do SOMETHING to stop it!

And really confused. then he remembered. "Reese, they want to see the Headmaster... That was one of the messages that the brat interpreted." He was speaking in a whisper so that only she would hear. |

Daniel saw that the merpeople where screeching those nasty voices again. He then looked at Paris and Jack with the face saying what shall we do? He was wondering, should we kill them or just shoot them away. "What do we need to do? Do we need to hurt them?" he asked.

| ★ wannabe historian ★ Baekry These merpeople and their family problems. Jule thought as she back away from them. Their tridents look sharp and it seemed that with one poke, it could pierce her skin in no time. Sadly, she was the one who was closer to them than everyone else behind her.
Lovely. Leave it to a first year to find trouble without looking for it.

"Would it be possible for you to grow a backbone sometime this year," she hissed at him. Honestly he was a boy he was supposed to charge into the fray without a care in the world. Jack seemed on the cusp of fainting.
She looked at all the other students gather. "Does everyone have their wands?" she asked them all.
She looked up as some of the merpeople poked it trident at the other Slytheirn girl. Pairs drew her wand just to be ready.

She saw Cy just up ahead. Reese and Torin were nearby, too. At least everyone seemed to be headed in the direction Professor Lawson had sent them in.
"Draw your wand, Clifford! If a merperson or grindylow attacks, you'll have to defend us! I'm a bit...tied up at the moment," she said, wincing again at how hard it was for her to drag him throughout the water while attempting to stay away from tridents and spears and grindylows, oh my! He was trying to kick and paddle, really he was.. trouble was, he just didn't know HOW. His kicking and paddling looked and felt more like pathetic flailing. Still, at least he wasn't drowning.. he felt a little safer up here on Anna's back. "Wand at the ready!" The seventh year nodded, accidentally jabbing Anna in the neck with it as he drew it again. "Oops, sorry.." He hoped it wouldn't make her let him gooo. Then he'd drown. And if he drowned he'd DIE. And then he'd be merpeople food. EEEEEK!!
Why were they FOLLOWING the merpeeps again!?
Everyone seemed to of beaten them to the gargoyle entrance.. probably because they didn't have a Clifford on their back.. he wasn't about to let go anytime soon though. Nope, because he saw a - "Ohmygosh.. they're trying to get into the headmaster's office," Clifford breathed horrified in Anna's ear, watching as one of the dudes waved his sword thing at Reese. They should've gone the OTHER way! Why had Lawson sent them HERE!?

Now would be a greatttt time to grow that backbone.
Without really thinking, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind him, so now HE was the one facing the trident. Gulp. It looked REALLY sharp! To add to this horrible situation, Jack had just jumped in front of Reese to face a merman who was speaking Mermish, and since that was not one of the languages the fifth year was fluent in, he had NO idea what he was saying.
"Don't use your wands! Magical creatures don't really like that, remember?" he asked. He was certain that THEY wouldn't like it, and he was not being turned into a giant marshmallow on the edge of the Merman's spear because someone started blasting them.
"I--I think they want to see the Headmaster," he muttered. "Bontecou?" he asked the Merpeople, hoping they might understand what they name meant.
And if someone happened to come along who spoke Mermish as well that would be GREAT.

Thomas entered the room and for the first time in his life he saw a merperson. It was kind of uglier then he imagined. The Ravenclaw took out his wand and made sure that nothing will touch him. He touched his scratch on the neck and when his fingers touched his neck he felt that there was a lot of blood.

She recognized the girl from around school. Being herself, she threw herself at the merman from the side in an attempt to tackle him, dropping her wand in the process. It was the only thing she could think to do. "Stay away from her!" She yelled as she clung to the merman.
