A passage that couldn't be seen before the flood is now perfectly visible to all. The headmaster has repaired it so that it no longer goes very far. Don't get caught smooching down here (I hear the Slytherin prefects are rather strict ).
Nate finds a secret passage. He decides to head down it. He remembers the spell his mom taught him if he ever needed a source of light. He pulls out his wand and says "Lumos." His wand lights up with a ball of light. He starts to move down the hallway and the further it seemed to go the thinner the walls got. He saw there was markings on the wall. They looked like from a knife. He still kept on going. Every now and then he would see a ghost go through the walls. He wasn't scared even at the most terrifying ghosts. Some just stopped and said "Hello." Nate was starting to get freaked out about all these ghosts. But he wouldn't stop, he wanted to find were this leads and how far back it goes. He could show this to some of his friends. Nate started to see an end, but it was about 500 feet away from him. He whispered to himself just keep walking. Nate finally got to the end. It felt like an eternity since he made it back there. Now he knows were this passage leads to.
Welcome Witch | Blue Galactic Hand Slytherin Graduate
The common room was way too busy, and someone locked the door to the girls dorm, the next quietest place would be the secret passage. Nobody else had a pygme puff that Olivia could race Flippert with, so she'd just half to race him herself. She'd see how fast Flippert could run down to the end of the secret passage and back.
It was wicked dark, down the tunnel. "Lumos", she lit her wand and walked down to the end. It felt like half a mile long, Flippert would be running a marathon!
Once at the end, she lit her wand to create an even stronger light. "Lumos Maxima"she said, and set her wand on the ground. She had to squint because it was so bright. Leaving the wand there, she ran back to the mouth of the passage and set Flippert on the ground. "Ready, go, Run to the light!" she told Flippert, "Run, run, run, go Flippert go".Olivia could see him run down the passage. She counted how long it took for Flippert to run to the end and back. He ran really fast! It took 1 minute and 28 seconds! She recorded that her journal.
Damon walked in, always his cool collective self, looking around, he found a dank place to sit to write some more, it was his thing, other than messing with people, he did enjoy doing that at times as well.

Taylor came walking down the pathway and turned into a little nook so that she could sit in peace and quietness and no one could bother her. There was only one problem..... she accidently picked one thatwas occupied. Tay was glad at least that she didn't step on the guy. "Oh.... I.... Sorry i didn't know that someone was sitting here." She took a few steps back.

Damon looked up at the girl than rolled his eyes a little annoyed, And now a dingy blonde too? Am I ever going to get a break? He smiled though, once again, those vampire-like teeth showing, his voice came out smoothly as always, calm, cool, collective... a little coniving tone. "Oh, I have some of the fault," He said pushing himself up, "I mean, I am dressed in pure black. It can be hard to spot me at times." He nodded, covering his Hufflepuff emblem, he didn't want people to know he was in that joke of a house.
He bowed slightly, took the girls hand and placed a light kiss, as a sign of friendliness, "Damon, Damon Ashllyn-Darkmyr Mercada..." He paused to see the girl's reaction to his fairly long name, "Yes, a mouthful, I'm sure for someone like..." He looked her a once over. "You... So to save you the trouble," He let go of her hand, "You can call me Damon or Ash... Whichever is easiest for that blonde brain of yours to remember," He had a kind smirk on his face, so she would think he was joking, "May I ask for your name Ms?"

Taylor smiled at the kiss on the hand. Her eyes narrowed and she pressed her lips together. "I am not a stupid blonde if that is what you are hinting at. If i were one i wouldnt be in Ravenclaw now would i, Damon Ashllyn- Darkmyr Morcada?" She only said his full name so that she could prove that it wasnt hard to say. "I don't believe i will give you my name." Tay flipped her hand and turned. She started to walk away. If he wanted her name then he would have to be nicer.

Damon looked her over again, A blonde in Ravenclaw? Huh, I've heard of her, she has a twim which means she's... Damon shrugged and sat back down, "I'm guessing your Taylor McIntyre." He smirked, "I've heard about you and you're family." He paused slightly able to understand, knowing the girls father had died, "If it's any consolation, I know how you feel, I lost my Mum not to far back now. I'd say, it's only been two or three weeks."

Taylor turned on her heel and stared at the guy. She drew her wand and re-entered the dark spot, "Who the heck are you and how do you know my family and me?" Tay pointed her wand at him, "How do you know about my father's death?" Her eyes were narrowed at him again. She didnt soften when he said his mother died about two or three weeks. Her wand was steady and she wasnt afarid to use it, despite the threat of detention or expellation.

Damon rolled his eyes, and didn't even bother to draw his wand, "You see, news normally gets around when you're father's the king of a country... And it's easy to know their kids as well." He said giving her a cocky stare, "And I guess this means I'm right?" He said sarcastically, "You're Taylor, not Trinity... Huh guess I have a knack for telling who people are." He smirked again, "Now then," He said jesturing to the wand, "Care to put that away? Or is that not a good enough excuse for knowing who you are?"

Tay was obviously shocked and snapped, "Not many people know my father was the king.... so no not good enough. Try again, buddy." She still had her wand pointed at him and her eyes narrowed at him. "Oh and yes you do have the right twin. I do appericate someone getting us right for once." Taylor didnt like this guy.
The poem isn't mine, I would give the author credit but his name is unknown :(

Damon just rolled his eyes before passing the girl, he'd just have to go back up to the blasted common room, where there was constant chatter and people complaining for him to turn his music down. Ugh... Hufflepuffs. "Well, unfortunately Ms. McIntyre, I'm not much in the mood for dueling today, so... If you don't mind I'll be on my way. As he started to walk one of his poems slipped from under his arm and landed at the girls feet, No... He sighed. It was one about his mother he had written called 'My Rock'
SPOILER!!: poems
My Rock (My Mom)
Sometimes I catch myself
Thinking, "When I phone,
I can talk of this or that!"
Then remember, I'm alone
She was always there
To answer my calls -
To listen to my "small talk"
Or when I climbed the walls.
At times, I didn't feel like talking
And somehow, she understood -
Didn't say she wished I'd call
Or make me feel like I should.
Now, I wish I would have
More times, to show I cared -
To say, just how important
Were, all those times we shared.
I could have shown my love
So much more than I did -
I never, did it enough
Even when I was a kid.
Now it's too late to do or say
All those things I wish I had -
No way to ease the pain inside
When my heart is sad.
She was my "anchor" to this life -
The "rock", that I clung to -
The place, where I could turn
When, nowhere else would do.
Now, the ravages of time
Have worn my "rock" away -
And all I have to cling to
Are memories of yesterday.

He turned quickly to pick it up.
Before he could pick it up, Tay picked up the piece of paper. She read it and she soften up. Taylor held it out to let him take it, "I'm sorry that I was being rude earlier... it is just i dont like being called a stupid blonde and I was shocked that you knew who i was since i was trying to keep it on the down low. THe poem is really good by the way." Tay gave a half smile, "Can we start over please?"

Damon looked at her, "I'm not a big fan of friends." He ruffled his long hair, "I prefer... solitude." He smirked, "It's been that way for a few years now." He sighed, then put a dark smile on his face, "I'm just the weird emo kid..." He laughed at it, "Most people are such stereo types... I'm goth... There is a difference."
He still fought to cover the Hufflepuff symbol, Why was I put in the perky house?"Oh, look, I'm blubbering about my lifes story again..." He looked at the poem, "You know what... Keep it. Though you lost your dad, it might help with the pain." He smirked again, "There's another reason I don't need it. Goth's are supposed to like pain... Aren't they?" He laughed; He knew darkness and a goth's life weren't something Taylor wouldn't want to talk about.

Taylor shook her head rapidly, "I... I... cant keep it....and i shouldnt of read it without permission." She handed him the poem, looked away and then back at him, "I don't think all goths like pain... but if you like solitude... then i guess... I will leave..." Tay realized that she actually didn't want to leave but she didn't want to impose on him. She started to slowly back away.

Though Damon didn't know why he wanted the girl to say, "You don't have to go." He sighed, "I'd prefer to get to know a little more about your family." He smiled, sincere in what he was saying, "Like, history, I'm kinda a sucker for the kind of stuff." He laughed, "I know, I just got weirder, A goth, who likes history." He looked up at her at her comment, "So, you don't stereotype?" He chuckled, "It's nice to know someone who knows a small bit about people like me."

Tay stopped in her backing up. "Ok i will.... stay?" She wasnt really sure what to do but decided to stay for the moment, "I'm not actually sure about my family history.... never read up on it but i do have a family history book back in my dorm room that you can borrow if you want." Taylor gave a half smile. "To be honest, I am not really a history bluff." She laughed and shook her head, "Yeah I dont stereotype..... well..... i try not to at least..."

"That'd be great." He said looking at her, "Seeing how I'm older I could help, I remember most things from my previous years." He smirked, not abnormal for him, "Well, at least there's one other person here who doesn't."

Tay smiled, "Ok we can meet up somewhere or i can just send it by owl or something." Taylor laughed, "Yeah maybe you could help.... so what house are you in?" She tilted her head and looked at him, smiling.

Damon kept the emblem covered. When she asked he sighed, "Hufflepuff..." He mumbled, barely audiable. He looked down.
"What does it really matter." He said, not wanting an answer, he sighed again and said again, just a tiny bit louder, "Hufflepuff..."
Tay flinched a little. She still didnt hear the house but she rather not ask again, "So you lost your mom a few weeks ago.... is that why you are goth?" Taylor tilted her head and looked at him. She was innocent.

Damon grew stiff. Is this girl serious?! He took a deep breath, tried to keep calm, "I've been the way I am for as long as I can remember... My personality, my music, poems... Everything has been gothic." He looked up, glaring, "My mother had nothing to do with how I am. Let's get that point across now."

Before she even thought of what she was doing, Tay hugged Damon. He seemed grouchy and what better to cheer up a grouchy person then to hug them?
