(Y/n)'s P.O.V

Feeling a bit tired than usual I headed to the Gryffindor table to ask how everyone was before going to my own house for breakfast. As I walked nearer I could hear Hermione muttering about something.

"We were on the third floor. Didn't you see the door on the left hand side?" Ron butted in and shoved Harry playfully. "We should check what's up the tonight."

"What you on about?" I questioned before sitting down next to Hermione. "We're gonna see what's on the third floor tonight." Harry told me.

"No you aren't!" Hermione stated. Harry and Ron just ignored her and shrugged before the food appeared in front of us. I took that as my queue to leave and started piling my plate up with the usual at the Slytherin table. I could see Malfoy a bit further up from me with his head between his hands. I could also see a dark bruise that had formed under his eye. Wonder how that happened...

"How did it happen Dracey?" I heard Pansy asking in a voice that would be used for talking to a child. "I told you. I wasn't looking where I was going and walked into something" Draco said as he shoved her off.

I finished my breakfast and headed to Transfiguration. In my first couple classes, I couldn't really figure out how to transform the rat into a cup but I was getting to the stage where it still had fur.

(Lovely time skip to later on)

It was half 11 when I got to the Fat Lady's portrait and only a couple seconds later, Harry and Ron climbed through with a protesting Hermione behind them. "You shouldn't be doing this. It could be dangerous."

"Oh be quiet before you get us caught." Ron snapped as we headed up to the third floor.

We found the door in short time and Harry tried pulling the lock open but it wouldn't budge. "Oh move over." Hermione muttered before pulling out her wand. "Alohamora!" She casted and the lock snapped up. We all quickly ran inside. The room was too dark to see anything but a massive silhouette. As our eyes adjusted to the darkness, the silhouette turned out to be a three headed dog. Everything went quiet as we took a sharp intake breath. The dog looked up to see us standing there and started to growl. I fumbled with the door handle as I was the closest and managed to fling it open just as the door lunged and started barking. We all made it out and Hermione locked it again as we ran down the corridor.

"Why is there a three headed dog in there?" I panted as we caught our breath on a corner. Hermione had just about recovered from the short burst of running as she spoke up. "Do you lot not use your eyes? It was standing on a trap door." Ron scoffed before turning around to face here.

"Oh sorry I was trying to figure out which head to look at so I could keep mine!" I laughed nervously at the moment that had just past. We could've died if I hadn't been fast enough to open that door. We started walking back to our common rooms while discussing what was beneath it.

"It's either really valuable or really dangerous." Ron pointed out. I scoffed. "Or both." We walked quietly from that moment on until I said goodbye to the other three.

I walked through the open wall and was about to head down to my room before I heard a snarky voice call out to me. "Back so late Potter?" I rounded and headed towards the sofa opposite the one he was sat on. "Why do you need to know? Malfoy." I spat his name like he usually did with mind. To my surprise he rolled his eyes. "Just wondering." He muttered before turning his head towards the fire.

"It's getting late." He finally spoke up after a couple minutes of silence. I stood up and brushed off my trousers. "Yeah it is. Well, um, night then?" I turned and walked down to my room as Draco called after me. "Night      (Y/n)." I paused for a second thinking I'd heard wrong before shaking my head with a small smile on my face.

I got into bed and went straight to sleep. Only dreaming of three headed dogs and a bright green light.
