Chapter Twelve- The Dark Room
Eliza slowly pushed the door open, revealing a dark room, covered with dust and cobwebs.
"Hey Harry, on second thought, maybe we should just turn ba-"
"WHOA, Look at that awesome statue!" interrupted Harry giddily.
Eliza smiled and rolled her eyes as she began wandering around the large room.
All of a sudden, one of the candles flickered out, and Eliza looked around in a panic. Her scar began to burn with pain, and she collapsed onto the floor, grasping her ankle.
"Eliza! Are you okay!" cried Harry, rushing forward, but as soon as he reached her, he too collapsed.
"Bloody Hell!" screamed Eliza in agony, and Harry chuckled.
"That's exactly what your brother would say."
"Well, we are twins..." shrieked Eliza.
A few moments later, the pain passed and Eliza and Harry tried to regain their balance.
"What was that all about?" Harry said, worriedly.
Eliza grimaced and stated, "I'm not sure, but I really hope it never happens again."
Harry nodded, and then touched his scar.
Eliza didn't seem to notice and kept looking around the room.
"Hey, Harry," she called out "Was this the door we came in through?"
Harry shrugged. "I think so?"
Eliza began to push the door open as Harry ran over to her.
The door swung open with a bang and Harry and Eliza were immediately frozen with terror.
A humongous dog sat in front of them. Three heads, and three times the teeth.
"AAAHH-" they both began to scream, but they clamped the hands of each other over their mouths so that they wouldn't awaken the beast, for it was napping.
Its mouthes were caked in drool, and one of the three was snoring quite loudly.
Harry and Eliza stood in terror as the beast slowly began to yawn and open its eyes.
"Open the door!" Eliza whisper-yelled to Harry.
"I'm trying! It's locked!" Harry said, beginning to shake from the nervousness.
Eliza rolled her eyes and turned to face the door.
"Alohamora!" she cried just as the dogs awakened.
The dogs began barking ferociously and moving towards them.
The door swung open and Eliza and Harry ran through it as fast as they possibly could.
They grabbed the door handle and shut it as fast as they could, with a loud 'Clang'
"How the hell did you know how to open that door?" Said Harry breathlessly, and in awe.
"It wouldn't kill you to pay attention in Charms every once and a while." Said Eliza grinning.
Harry shrugged and smiled. They walked out of the room together, blushing.
A/N: Whoops, it's kind of been a while...
