Dungeon Corridor level 1

With a thousand lies

 

Tell me all your plans and I'll laugh back in your face

And a good disguise

   

Preach me your religion if you're dumb enough to pray

Hit ‘em right between the eyes

   

Look what I became, honey

Michelle wandered the dark dungeon corridor silently. It was the weekend, and she had nothing better to do than explore the dungeons. She had no idea where Ada had gotten off to, but she was content with walking by herself and thinking about everything that had happened recently. Vincent was still incessantly sending her letters even though he now knew she was alive and well. Michelle had replied to OIyvia's letter but had made the younger girl promise to keep their correspondence a secret from Vincent. She was still angry at the man and she had no wish to speak with him at all. She sighed quietly, although in the silent dungeon, the soft noise echoed loudly.

OOC:...

When you walk away

 

What is it I'm after

Nothing more to say

 

Searching for disaster

See the lightning in your eyes

 

Watching my whole life flash in front of my eyes

See ‘em running for their lives

 

Dressed up as a life

❧❧❧❧❧❧Michelle had meandered towards the Slytherin common room, taking her sweet time. She hadn't been to worried about not knowing the password into the common room. It wouldn't be that much trouble to figure out and if she couldn't guess it she could always just wander the dungeons through the night until someone opened the door. Of course she had gotten there just in time to hear someone say the password and had wandered off by herself again. She now knew how to get into the common room and had no intentions of taking an "early" night. With a small yawn she stopped her movement and leaned against the cold stone wall. She had foregone her shoes awhile ago and was now wandering the cold dungeons bare foot.


❧❧❧❧❧❧Michelle wasn't particularly sure why she didn't just go to bed. It wasn't like there was anything interesting happening. It was the first night back at school. Not much could happen on such a dull night. Sure a few first years would be grumpy about their sorting. Some of them might trip up at the feast, and there was of course the curiosity of Gracie breaking school rules just to sit with Dominic at the Slytherin Table this night... but none of it was interesting now that it was all said and done. Although Michelle had to wonder if Dominic knew the whole truth.... and more importantly how much harder his parents would try to ruin his life if they knew.... The high and mighty Dominic Montague was not only dating a halfblood but a vampire too? It was the best joke she had heard all summer. Verily had written her with the new turn of events the moment Gracie had spilled the beans. Michelle always knew what was going on though anyways. It was a perk of being in the habit of watching everyone and remembering everything important.

Adalaide had seen Michelle leave the Great Hall not long after the prefects had started corralling the first years, and had been up and following after the pale Slytherin almost immediately (she'd had half a piece of Pumpkin Pie to finish, the girl couldn't just let that go to waste!). Unfortunately, she'd taken a bit too long and lost her, which lead the the Hufflepuff wandering the Dungeons a bit before finally finding her best friend. She ran up to Michelle, nervous. The Slytherin could usually be counted on for being up for trouble, of course, but she was also a bit protective. Would she be okay with helping Adalaide to keep from getting sent back to the castle, or would Ada have to ask Chris to just meet her on the grounds? She didn't even know if that was a feasible alternative; he might have only been passing through on the night he'd met with Gracie. Which was another thing; she needed to uncover how they knew one another. It still didn't quite make sense. And the whole... being a wizard but not a wizard... that was pretty confusing, too. She sighed and called for her friend as she closed in on the girl. "Chelle! Hey, I, erm... I sort of might need your help with something." Her hand went to her pocket and she ran her fingers over the letter a second before snagging it and handing it to Michelle, figuring that was the best way to get her up to speed. After the Slytherin had read it, and once her skin was the appropriate shade of red for anything relating to Chris (Ada was starting to wonder if he'd ever see her real skin tone!), she bit her lip, and then explained. "He wants to meet up, and I'm guessing he meant on one of the Hogsmeade weekends, well I mean the first probably but I don't know for sure because he wasn't very detailed, but I think that might be because he didn't want to plan it all out and have me say no, but the thing is I don't want to say no but I don't want to be there all day alone because I'll be bored, and I'll probably need some help keeping out of sight so I don't get sent back to the castle before he can meet me, so do you think we could spend the day together and you could hang out with me and help me lay low until he's off work or whatever and then once he shows up maybe you could... um... leave?" The last bit felt awkward, because she sort of felt like she was using the Slytherin for entertainment and convenience until Chris was able to meet up with her. But she didn't know who else to turn to; Gracie was never around, at least not during the day (and how weird was that?), and as helpful as Nell was being letting her borrow Soot and as much as her friend was obviously enjoying this whole thing, she was a prefect, and Ada didn't want to get her in trouble. The same went for Marina and Damien. Besides, Michelle was her best friend, and the one who would probably be best at the whole sneaking around bit. The girl was practically silent most of the time. Ada was, too, being fairly graceful and tiny, but she wasn't very sneaky per say. She'd need help on that front, and Michelle was definitely the one to ask. She bit her lip, waiting.

❧❧❧❧❧❧Michelle was lounging against the wall, staring off into space. Her mind was wrapped around the events of the summer, trying to comprehend all that had happened. The circus events were whatever to her. More death, more blood, more chaos. It was exactly where she felt most comfortable, but what happened after the circus is what had her mind reeling. She wanted to know more about this Phinelia, and she wanted to know.... she didn't even know what she wanted to know anymore. What in the world had half of what Phi said meant? What was Phi to Tay and more importantly what was she to Tay? Michelle lifted pale fingers to rub at her eyes in annoyance. To much to think about with very little answers. It hurt her head.


❧❧❧❧❧❧Michelle vaugely heard someone coming, and had her wand at the ready to knock out whoever it was just in case, but around the corner came none other than Adalaide Blythe and Michelle just gave her best friend a simple smile. Need her help with something? Michelle quirked her eyebrow. What in the world could she need her help with. Honestly Ada knew best of all that Michelle was only really helpful in dangerous situations or sneaky situations, and the Slytherin didn't particularly want her best friend in either of those choices. She took the letter handed to her without a word and scanned the scrawled message. Silver eyes flickered up to her best friend's face as she finished reading. The girl had gone beat red again and Michelle just barely contained an eye roll. She couldn't honestly say no to Ada's request. She had trusted Ada's life in the hands of this Chris guy at the circus, so not helping now would be a bit hypocritical and she would never be a hypocrite.


❧❧❧❧❧❧"So you want me to help you sneak around Hogsmeade.... to meet up with a boy I don't even really know.... and then leave you... .with said boy... who could possibly kill you?" She quirked her eyebrow at Ada but sighed. "I'll help..... but I wanna know who he was here meeting when you met up with him. Find that out for me." Michelle knew her best friend, and she had a feeling Ada already knew who Chris was meeting and just hadn't said. Michelle had no real reason of wanting to know except, that knowing who he was meeting would give her some sort of insight into what kind of guy he was. She wouldn't let just anyone date her best friend. No way in hell.

Adalaide wanted to do a little dance when Michelle agreed, but was miffed at her saying that Chris could kill her. Honestly, they were on that again? She rolled her eyes. "As if, Michelle. You threw me at him at the Ball. Then, you totally ditched me with him to go with Tay, in the middle of an all-out battle to the death with a bunch of masked nutcases. You can't honestly be worried he'll kill me after leaving me alone with him in the middle of that. Seems to me that if he was gonna kill me, he would have done it there, so my body could be left behind with all the other ones. Logically, I mean. He'd never get caught." Unless he'd been with the masked people, but of course he wasn't. Otherwise, he'd have been in the middle of the carnage with her, would have killed her then, donned his mask and joined in on the chaos.

When Michelle asked about who Chris had been meeting with, she bit her lip. She'd forgotten that she hadn't told Michelle it'd been Gracie. Of course, at the time, she hadn't been expecting to hear from the guy ever again, and didn't want Michelle sticking her nose in it. If he knew Gracie, he might know Michelle, so it stood to reason that she'd have something to say about it. But, seeing as she was seeing him again, and she needed Michelle's help... "Erm... well, I sort of... know... he, uh... he was meeting Gracie... they, um, they're friends..." How they were friends, how they knew each other, Ada had no clue, of course. But Gracie was a good person, and even if she and Michelle weren't friends or whatever, it wasn't like they hated each other or thought each other was the devil incarnate. So knowing Chris and Gracie knew each other would probably make Michelle a little less overprotective, right?

❧❧❧❧❧❧Michelle rolled her eyes at Ada's totally logical reasoning as to why she wasn't allowed to be worried for her safety. "Shut it. He could still be a secret serial killer that is just biding his time for the perfect moment." She grumbled, but she knew Ada was right. She had left the Hufflepuff in the care of the boy she didn't at all just to traipse off with Tay again. To be fair though.... she hadn't meant to leave without giving Ada warning. Tay had kind of just decided that on his own. "I was going to tell you I was leaving with Tay! Or take you with us! I swear! But then that girl showed up and he kind of just dragged me off with him suddenly." Michelle made a face at the memory of the girl with firey hair. Michelle was not pleased with the pure existence of this girl.


❧❧❧❧❧❧Moving on from the unwanted subject within her thoughts, and shoving the girl deep down into the recesses of her mind for later pondering, Michelle raised an eyebrow as Ada answered her questioned. She had known her best friend already knew! But.... Gracie? That could only mean one thing. And it honestly made sense. Ada had met the boy at night, seen him again at the ball which was at night, and now he wanted to meet at night? This Chris boy was one of Gracie's new friends. "No." She said automatically. She narrowed her eyes at her best friend. There was no way in hell, Michelle was letting the girl traipse around with a vampire....alone! "No. No way. No way in hell! You are not going to wander around Hogsmeade, by yourself, at night, with a v-" She quickly cut herself off and blinked silver eyes fiercly. She couldn't say that.... but she had no other reason to disapprove. Damn it!

Adalaide’s eyes narrowed as Michelle argued over whether or not Chris was or was not going to kill her, knowing that Michelle was totally, fully aware of how many holes there were in her theory. When she brought up Tay taking off with her, Ada rolled her eyes. For once, Tay was not even remotely the issue. She also ignored the acid in her best friend’s tone when referring to the redhead who Tay had taken with them, figuring that was a conversation for later. She wanted to stay at least a little on topic right now. “I don’t care that you up and vanished with him. I mean, I do, but I know he just took off with you. The point is, you were more than happy to shove me at Chris before everything started, and then after it did, you didn’t come looking for me. Why is that, Michelle? Huh? Could it be because maybe, just maybe, you admitted to yourself that I was safe, either because of him or because, yes, actually, I can take care of myself? Even for a second? I mean, I’m sure you were planning on finding your way to me, but you didn’t seem to be trying overly hard. And I know you. If you thought I was in danger, you’d have been fighting tooth and nail to get to me. Which means that you must have thought I was safe.” There. Sound argument. No way Michelle could argue with that. She would, of course. She was Michelle, after all. But nothing she said would really hold any water. Which meant that Ada would win the argument. For once. Michelle would never admit it, but she’d give in.

Or, she thought she would, until Michelle suddenly freaked out over Ada saying that he’d been meeting with Gracie. Ada’s expression became confused; what was the big deal? She wanted to interrupt Michelle, to interject, but before she could, the blonde cut herself off. A second too late, though. The most important bit of her response had already been uttered. Ada’s brow crinkled. By herself with a… what? Something that started with a V… suddenly, it all clicked into place. Gracie had been skipping all her lessons… except the ones they had at night. When Ada had told Chris to tell Gracie to start coming to class, he’d chuckled, and looked like there was some inside joke she wasn’t getting. Every time she’d seen him, it’d been at night… She gasped. “Oh, my gosh! She’s… and he’s… Oh, my gosh!” Then, her eyes flashed angrily. “Seriously? You’re getting all uppity because he’s a vampire? What, there’s something wrong with being a vampire? Your cousin is apparently one; do you not want me alone with her, either?” She crossed her arms, tapping her toe on the stone floor, the sound echoing. “You know, Gracie would go with me. I’d have to wait until dark, of course. But when she found out that I… that I liked him, she got all… excited. I’m pretty sure that the reason he’s contacted me at all was because she convinced him to. If you’re so concerned… I’ll just ask her.” Honestly, Ada would much rather spend the day at Hogsmeade with Michelle, but if her friend was going to freak out… he’d been a vampire the whole time she’d known him, it wasn’t like suddenly he was more dangerous because she knew it. Of course, that was logic talking, and Michelle didn’t tend to listen to logic when it came to her ridiculous overprotective streak. She stared the Slytherin down, for once not willing to let the girl beat her down into submission. She had no idea why this was so important to her, but it was. She supposed she might have been a bit overprotective herself, though, with the whole Tay thing. She sighed, rolling her eyes. “Michelle, if you let this go, if you do this for me… I will never lecture you about Tay again. If you’re allowed to hang out with a dangerous guy, so am I. I know you don’t really think of it, but I can take care of myself, too. I can. I’m not some delicate little flower you need to keep inside to protect from the storm. I can handle myself, I can protect myself. And anyway… I don’t know if you noticed, but blood was sort of… everywhere, at the Circus. He kept his composure so well, I didn’t even notice anything odd about him. I’m pretty sure he’s got a handle on it. And that he won’t hurt me. So… can you please just support me with this?” She paused, blushing. “It probably won’t work out, anyway. I’m sure I’ll chase him off somehow. Or put him to sleep talking about plants.” She chuckled a bit, holding out a hand to the Slytherin, her eyes hopeful, questioning.

❧❧❧❧❧❧The Slytherin rolled her eyes at Ada threw logic at her. She knew the girl was right. Of course she was right. There was no way in hell Michelle would have left Ada in the care of the boy if she didn't think he would keep her safe. That of course was before she found out just who.... or what... he was. She would not let Ada go traipsing around in the dark with a vampire! There was not a snowball's chance in hell! She ground her teeth together in annoyance, waiting for Ada to slow down so Michelle could make her demand, but of course Ada had caught right on to her slip up with words.


❧❧❧❧❧❧Groaning internally, the Slytherin tried to find a way to back herself out of this situation, but instead she found herself cornered. Her back pressed (metaphorically and physically) against a cold stone wall. Michelle wanted to smack herself in the face. "My cousin is incapable of hurting anyone on this planet even those she hates most. Chris on the other hand could be capable of anything and everything." She paused, toying with a strand of white hair. "I can't let your wander around with him. You could get hurt or die or.... be changed!" Michelle had heard all the gory details from Gracie before. She didn't wish that upon her best friend and she would never let Ada come anywhere close to being changed, being killed! It was her bloody job to protect the small Hufflepuff!


❧❧❧❧❧❧"Don't you dare go to Gracie! She'll let you traipse all over the world with him like it's perfectly fine! She doesn-" Michelle cut herself off, realizing her next sentence would have sounded ridiculous. Gracie doesn't understand.... but of course the Ravenclaw understands. She's a bloody vampire too. Gracie trusted Chris... but Gracie was in no danger of being killed by her own clan mate. As she internally debated about the whole thing with herself, she could feel penetrating brown eyes on her. Finally she flicked silver eyes over her best friend as the tiny girl began to speak again. "I don't honestly care if you lecture me about Tay Ada. I know you do it only because you care.... I just.... I don't want to see you get hurt.... or worse." Michelle looked at her friend's hand and gave a loud sigh before pushing off from the wall and taking the Hufflepuff's fingers in her own. It was the best answer Ada was going to get. It wasn't a full on yes I approve but she wasn't going to stop the girl either. Ada was 15 and could take care of herself. Maybe not as well as Michelle could, but Michelle had grown up hard, Ada hadn't. The Hufflepuff would be okay. And if she wasn't, there would be hell to pay, and Michelle would be sure to get that payment.

Adalaide watched the Slytherin's expression's closely, carefully. She waited for yelling, for arguing. And she got it, but even she could tell that there was nothing behind it. Michelle was faltering; she didn't have any fire to fight with. But then, of course she didn't. She'd never use her fire to burn her best friend. Ada smiled lightly at Michelle's last words, knowing she cared. Knowing that she worried. She let the Slytherin take her hand and smiled. "You can always spy on us with your wand pointed at him. Just promise you won't hex him for like, taking my hand or something... I mean, I was sort of freaked out after the Circus, and he was the one there, so it's not like..." It's not like what? Like they wouldn't hold hands? Touch? ... She'd turned crimson when she'd received his letter tonight. But... maybe after she'd gotten over the awkwardness... it would be like... like it should have been when they'd danced. If they'd gotten to. She was still bitter that they hadn't. It'd been so perfect... She blinked a moment, realizing she'd been going off on some weird thought train that she did not need to be on right now. "It's not like we don't already know each other, I mean. He... he was really great that night. The best substitute for you I could have asked for." Maybe that would smooth a few of the ruffled feathers? Or... scales? She bit her lip. "You are coming, right? I know you don't... I know you're worried, but you'll still come?" Michelle's grudging acquiescence made the Hufflepuff smile, flouncing off to the Owlery, calling thank you over her shoulder. She needed to borrow Nell's owl and send a reply!
