As soon as Diane's feet met solid ground, she collapsed to the ground on all fours. She'd apparated before, but back then she'd been too anxious and distracted to focus on the nouseating sensation. This time, she felt extremely dizzy. Lysander quickly helped her up.
'You okay?' He asked. 'Yeah.' She responded, the light-headed feeling quickly resided as she looked around. They were at the base of a slight hill, a small-scale castle sat on top. The air was warmer than it'd been back in Scotland, but the winter breeze still made her shiver. Lysander was quick to wrap his own cloak around her small body, ever the gentleman.
They whirled around as they heard a loud splash in the small creek that coursed at the hill's mount. Lloyd cursed loudly as he helped Roxanne on dry land and removed his shoes to wring out his soaked socks. 'Saoirse and Lorcan?' Roxanne asked as she joined Diane and Lysander. They both shook their heads and continued searching the vast expanse of the hillside.
Not much later, the two missing teens crawled out of a large bush. Saoirse had twigs and leaves stuck in her hair but overall they were fine.
'What now?' Lorcan asked. 'We follow the compass, like McGonagall said.' Saoirse instructed, already starting the hike up the hill.
'Hasn't that thing caused us enough misery already?' Lysander questioned. 'Maybe, but you heard what McGonagall said.' Diane said. 'Besides, what other options do we have.'
'How did she even know you had the compass?' Roxanne questioned, uncomfortably trailing Saoirse as her shoes were still wet.
'It's McGonagall, she knows everything.' Saoirse said, eyes trained on the compass. 'Except for Whitelock, I guess.'
'So, our history of magic teacher is a vampire.' Lloyd sighed. 'Nothing can ever be justnormal at Hogwarts, can it.'
The compass led them higher and higher. Soon, the innocent hills turned to actual mountains. None of them were clothed well for the occasion. All Diane was wearing were her pyjamas and two cloaks on top of each other.
Suddenly Saoirse stilled. In front of them stood several light blue carriages hidden underneath a thick copse of trees. attached to them, were white winged horses which were grazing lazily and silently nickering. 'No way.' Lorcan mumbled before carefully approaching the large horses.
'What are you doing?' Diane whispered. She thought the boy must've gone mad. But Lorcan just kept approaching, until he was close enough to reach out and stroke the mane of one of the horses. 'They're friendly.' He smiled.
The others drew closer to the carriage, but steered clear of the huge horses. Roxanne pulled on a handle and the doors of the carriage opened. She stepped inside without a second doubt, and the others followed.
