The students were coming back from Hogsmeade. TJ had brought Harry, a few souvenirs from Hogsmeade it wasn't as special Harry would have liked if he'd been there, but Harry appreciated the gesture. Ron on the other was insensitive to Harry about how much fun they had.

Ron:
Honeyduke's Sweetshop is brilliant, but nothing beats Zonko's Joke Shop. We never got to go to the Shrieking Shack. You heard it's the most-

Harry:
Haunted building in Britain. I heard.

He said a little snippy. They noticed a crowd forming outside the common room.

Harry:
What's going on?

Ron:
Probably Neville forgot the password again.

Izzy:
He's right behind us, you Numpty!

She moved out of the way to show Neville was behind her.

Ron:
Oh.

Suddenly Percy's voice was heard.

Percy:
Let me through, please. Excuse me! I'm Head Boy! Get back, all of you. No one is to enter this dormitory until it's been searched.

Jenny was seen pushing through the crowd towards the five friends.

Jenny:
The Fat Lady! She's gone! Serves her right.

They look to see that the portrait was scratched.

Ron:
She was a terrible singer.

Hermione:
It's not funny, Ron.

All the other portraits were going crazy. TJ was looking around the other Portraits to see if he could find her.

Percy:
Keep calm, everyone. Ravenclaws, back to your common room. - Be quiet. -

Mr. Filch:
Make way.

Percy:
The headmaster's here.

Dumbledore:
Come on, move.

Percy:
You heard. Move!

Dumbledore, and Mr Filch approached the damaged Portrait to see the scratch marks on it. Dumbledore placed his hand on the Portrait like he was trying to fix one of the scratches then he speaks.

Dumbledore:
Mr. Filch? Round up the ghosts. Tell them to search every painting in the castle to find the Fat Lady.

TJ:
Uh... Professor?

Dumbledore, and the students turned to TJ.

Dumbledore:
What is it!?

TJ:
I found her.

The crowd was getting anxious and looked around. Dumbledore approached him, and TJ just pointed in the higher staircase.

TJ:
She's up there.

The crowd then pushed their way through to see her.

Percy:
Mind where you're going! Slow down! You listen! I'm Head Boy! - Come back here!

Dumbledore, TJ, and Mr. Filch made it to the Painting where she was.

Dumbledore:
Dear lady, who did this to you?

The Fat Lady peering from behind one of the animals.

An:(I don't know what they are. They looked like hippos to me, but their snouts are smaller than any hippos I've seen).
