Behind the mirror is a secret passageway. Unfortunately it doesn't lead anywhere because of a cave in.

Mina huffed as she walked by the mirror, only to turn back and look at herself in it. She was really started to run out of places to possible hide and it seemed that the library would have to do for now. Taking a moment to correct herself, she shook her head at her own reflection and took a breath. Being angry wasn't doing anything for her appearance, but her emotions were taking a toll on her and it was as if it was going completely unnoticed by her best friends. Some best friends they turned out to be. She should have knew it wouldn't end well.

Perhaps your family was right about them?

The voices were starting to make valid points again and she did hate when that happened. She would seriously need to head down to the kitchen soon and silence them with cupcakes and brownies. She knew there might have been some true in what her family had said, but she wanted, no she needed to give her friends the benefit of the doubt. She had spent so much time defending them to her family, but where had that gotten her so far? She was hiding more and more and hadn't even spoken a word to any of them. She was talking to her new friends more than the friends she made whilst a firstie.

Selena walked to the fourth floor and saw the mirror. She walked pass it before looking at herself in it. She really did look different from few years back. Her hair used to be a lighter color. Her eyes had turned from dark blue to purple. Selena had changed a lot. Selena sighed and placed her hand on the mirror. How could someone... change so much? She noticed that it wobbled. She moved it aside and saw a small cave. It was blocked on the other end. But there was enough room for several people. Maybe three or four with room to still move around. She went inside.

Selena pulled out her wand. "Lumos," Selena said softly and the tip of her wand lit up. Selena sat down on the side, leaning against the wall. Selena sighed and pulled out her notebook. There was finally a place to write quietly. And by the looks of it, not much people came here. Selena gave a small smile and pulled out a quill. She let her hand dance across the page, allowing the wand to cast shadows on the walls.

This was where it had all happened...just around the corner of where she was standing right now was thee corridor. The Fourth Floor Corridor. And even though, Nancy KNEW that that hadn't been herself last term it still unsettled her enormously, causing a small shiver to run down her spine. Roxxy...her wrestling match with Brody...Torin...Oliver...Miranda. Meh.

Shifting her weight from one foot to the other Nancy jumped as she noticed a sudden movement out of the corner of her eyes. And another one. What was that?! The Prefect whirled around on her heels, ready to draw her wand should there be the need to, only to find herself staring at...her own reflection. Meh! Since when had she become so jumpy? It was only a mirror after all.

Trixie was looking for someone who she could share her cupcake with and when she turned the corner, there was the perfect Victim *ahem* tester. "Nancy!" she called and grinned as she ran over to the Slytherin prefect. "Hey. I hope you like cake because I have one for you right here" she smiled and produced the cake from behind her back where she had been hiding it. She handed it over to the Prefect hoping she would accept.

It was as she had been staring at her own reflection in the mirror - totally lost in thought about last term - that another quick movement caught her attention. A movement behind her. A movement followed by a greeting. It was Trixie. "Heya." Nancy greeted her fellow Slytherin, trying to force a small smile onto her lips without much success.

ZOMG! Caaaake! At Trixie's sudden revelation of a delicious-looking cake a genuine grin flashed across her face. "A cake? For me? But why?" Had Trixie just randomly decided to make cake and give her one? Huh? Trying to not make too many grabby-hands movements Nancy carefully took the cake from her and beamed down at it. Cake!

Trixie let out a huge grin, it looked more sly then anything but she was sure that the cake wouldn't taste too bad. She often cooked at home with her mother. "Well aren't you going to eat it?" she asked sweetly giving the cake looks. "I haven't poisoned it or anything." It practically screamed Eat Me but Trixie was vegan, she wouldn't touch it. "I made it in Charms silly and well we were supposed to give it to someone and I thought who better then my good friend the Slytherin prefect Nancy" she said truthfully. She did actually want to give it to Nancy because the girl was so friendly to her earlier. Basically she was a very good prefect and didn't take house points from her because of her old Beauxbatons shoes.

Cramming all unsettling thoughts about the Fourth Floor Corridor incidents into the back of her head, Nancy now focused fully on the cake in her hands. It looked so...Squee! "Of course. Thank yoou!" If she had been one for hugs then NOW would have been the perfect time to give out one. Because now was cake-time!!!1!!!one!!

And with yet another beam at Trixie she took a bite of the cake. "Mmmh. It's good." Well, not as good as Maple Fudge...or Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream of course but you know, still good. And the latter reminded her of something, or someone actually. "You should give one to Aiden." Nancy gave the other girl a genuine smile with a small - rather well-hidden - hint of curiosity. Hehe...

Trixie literally grinned as Nancy took a bite out of her cake and actually liked it! Wow! That was a relief. Not that Trixie was surprised as she had all those cooking lessons at home, well when the House Elf wasn't busy she did. Otherwise the elf would be doing it for her. "Yay!! Thank you!" she grinned even harder and actually hugged the prefect. Well hey.. She was a loving person okay?

Her smile turned into a little bit of a frown as she mentioned Aiden. Obviously she hadn't heard yet. She sighed a little. "I don't really think he'd appreciate it" she replied sadly. Ergh stupid boys!! "He'd prefer one from Ella" she sighed miserably.

He was bored, and when he grew bored he tended to wander around aimlessly.This time was no different. With half a sugar quill in his mouth, moving back and forth William tip toed down the corridor, his eyes twitching ever so often. He knew he was about to become hyper, he could feel the ten chocolate frogs and five cup cakes he had eaten beforehand running through his veins, coursing through his brain and into his spirit and wondered what this one would be like. The last time he had ended up skipping around in a circle in the common room for an hour, but this time felt different.

He began walking a little faster now, his face turning left and right before he stopped at a weird looking mirror. Hmm when had that been there he wondered, amazed he hadn't found it earlier in his stay at Hogwarts. Stopping he looked curiously at it, seeing his reflection staring back at him.

Legend was absolutely BORED. There was nothing to do. Hopping down the stairs two at a time the fourth year began to adjust his uncomfortable uniform. Pulling the knot lose on the tie he breathed out. That felt SO much better. Stopping for a moment he glanced around and noticed....William? "Hey Free Willy." Legend called loudly as he began to walk over. WAIT....Katie wasn't here right? Good.

Teegan, with arms full with a large leather bound book and her large teal covered notebook, was fairly sure she was lost...well, positive she was lost. She stopped in the middle of the hallway, about to retrace her route to where she had been previously and start all over again. She was pretty sure that this was not the direction of the library. She gave a sigh and wiped her blonde bangs out of her face as she continued on the path she was already walking, realizing that sooner or later she would end up in the library or Hufflepuff common room.

Staring into the mirror he blinked as something shifted past him and he whirled around seeing... nothing. Nothing but the other wall and a portrait. Getting paranoid man he thought before he felt it; that little tingle which meant he was hyper. Grinning like a fool he posed in front of the mirror taking out his sunglasses. Tilting his head downwards he said, "William Cullack..." pause, put on sunglasses "Boy wonder." pose. It was then he heard his name being called, that nickname he knew all too well. Turning in the direction he had heard the voice from he smirked, "Big L, how's it going?" he asked blue eyes hidden behind his Horatio Cane sunglasses.

He was standing there sillohetted by the mirror when he saw a girl walking with a huge leather bound book. "Wow, how can you lift that thing?" he exclaimed loudly, his voice echoing off the walls as he blinked in shock.

Teegan stopped and pivoted around on her foot to look at the boy. "Easy." She smirked. "It's called a charm." She told him raising her eyebrows, giving him a duh-look like he should've known that....well, he looked about fourteen or fifteen, he SHOULD know that....or maybe they taught things differently here. She looked at both boys and turned to leave wondering if she should send Warren after the two...

Legend cringed slightly as her heard Williams nickname for him. That was.....quite...okay it sucked. "Please-" Legend started as he held up his hands as a sign of surrender. "Please don't ever call me that again. That name...is too bad for words." People could not nickname him! Pssh no way he was the PRINCE. Legend took a slight notice that his voice oddly seemed...stronger? "Hey..." Walking over closer to Willy he noticed something. "Are you like...checking yourself out in a mirror? Like a girl? Or.....Miguel." Yeah, his step brother did have an obsession of looking at himself in the mirror.



The fourth year turned a bit his green eyes focused in on some Hufflepuff girl. Rolling his eyes he leaned agaisnt the wall. This girl sounded like she thought she was OH so smart. It was obvious because of her smirk and her rude reply. He would tech her. "Really? Who knew that Hufflepuffs knew anything about Charms."

It was starting to get a little chilly out on the ground so Rhea made her way inside the castle. She thought of going to her common room but then the stairs changed and here she was on the fourth floor. Just her luck. She sighed and continued walking down the corridor until she saw a mirror. Funny, she had never noticed it before. She let her book bag drop by her side and looked up and down the corridor to make sure that no one was looking then she began making faces.

Aiden passed through the corridor, leisurely make his way to no where in particular, until he saw something - or someone - out of the corner of his eye. He stopped and turned to see it was Rhea, making various expressions into the mirror before her. With a quiet chuckle, he walked over to the girl. "Who you posing for?"

Rhea was busy making faces into the mirror and having a grand time at it so much so that she didn't realize that Aiden had walked up until she heard his voice was startled her. She jumped.
"Bloody hell Aiden! You scared the bejeezus out of me!" She covered her heart briefly then felt her ears and cheeks warm.
"Err..how long have you been here?" She eyed him with narrowed eyes. She hoped he hadn't seen her making a fool of herself. Oh well it was Aiden. She smirked.
"Yes I know I have awesome face making skills."

Aiden chuckled. "Long enough." He stepped closer to Rhea so that he could see his own image before him as well. Hmm. His hair was rather disheveled, but that was no surprise there. He ran a hand through it, not that it helped, and looked to the Hufflepuff. "Awesome face-making skills? Hahh. What's this? Training to be a model; is that it?"

Rhea frowned slightly, so he had seen her making a fool of herself. She shook her head. Figures. She looked at his reflection in the mirror as well taking note of his messy brown hair. Did the boy not own a comb?
Rhea laughed and shook her head.
"No, I have more purpose for my life than becoming a model." She scoffed and smirked, then looked at herself in the mirror.
"Though I must say, I'm not looking too bad. What about you and that hair? Someone stole your comb?"

"Oh, I see. Being a model is not good enough for Miss Rhea Bellaire." Aiden smirked a little and then looked back in the mirror again at his hair when she mentioned it. He shrugged. "Eh, I'm just going for the messy look today," he lied, pulling his fingers through it once again.

He scratched the back of his neck and looked to Rhea. "So, what brought you here? Did your ghoulish looks break your own mirror?" Heheh.

Rhea chuckled at his comment. It wasn't that being a model wasn't good enough for her, it's just that she would scarcely make an impact on anyone doing that, except for maybe over excitable guys and she was not looking along that route at all.
"No it's not that, it's just not my thing." She looked at his reflection in the mirror with then ran her fingers through his hair too with little result. He did have nice hair though, pfft not that she would tell him that. They would never live it down.

Rhea laughed at his next comment and shook her head then threw him a very over dramatized hurt look.
"Ouch Casanova, that one hurt." She chuckled and looked at herself. Maybe Art thought she was ghoulish after she outright said she didn't like his snake so he stopped coming around. She pushed the thought away.
"I'm actually here by accident. The staircase had other plans for me it seems." She leaned against the wall next to the mirror turning her attention to him.
"Lurking the castle as usual looking for unsuspecting girls to sweep off their feet?" she asked smirking at him.

Aiden smirked as she ran her fingers through her hair. "I think it's safe to say that it can't be tamed today." Maybe because he showered last night and then slept on it while it was wet? Eh. Who knows.

He gave a short laugh. "The truth hurts." But of course they both knew they were joking, for Rhea was very pretty. So, that's why she was here. The staircases were to blame. Aiden did have to get used to the stairs when he first came to school at Hogwarts, and he wondered if anyone died because they fell of when one was moving. Hmm.

"Oh yes, that's exactly what I do in my spare time. Call me a broom, I'm bound to sweep you off your feet." Hey, that was a good line! Broom.. sweep. Well, Aiden was proud of it. He looked to Rhea. "So, how are you and Art?"

Rhea let out another dramatic sigh.
"That is does, it hurt me right here." She placed her hand over her heart and looked at him all hurt and sad then she giggled. Bleh giggled??? Rhea Bellaire did not giggle. She cleared her throat.

Rhea laughed at his next comment..wow...how corny! She shook her head trying to stop the laughter.
"That one was really really bad Aiden. Super cheesy bad." She smirked at him when she finally manged to stop laughing.His next question wiped the smile off her face momentarily but she quickly replaced it with a more nonchalant look and shrugged.
"We're ok i guess." Was this boy in her head or something hmm.

A grin spread across Aiden's face. "My apologies for cutting you deep, but someone had to let you know the truth." It was always so easy to be around Rhea. Refreshing, too.

What? His line was bad? But he had been so proud of it! "Cheesy?! Whaaaat? That was genius, okay? What about that whole play on words, there, huh?" He folded his arms and gave a mock huff. But, ohh. Judging by her sudden change in countenance, maybe he shouldn't have brought up Art? No.. he wanted to know. The Gryffindor dropped his hands to his sides, now looking genuinely at her. "'Okay'..? What's up?"
