The next day Hermione, Ron and I are walking through the corridors when we see Harry.

He seemed to be listening to something.

"Harry..." Hermione said.

"Did you hear it?" he asked.

"Hear what?" Ron asked.

"That voice." Harry answers.

"What voice?" Hermione asked, concerned.

"I heard it first in Lockhart's office, and then, again, just-" Harry says.

He seemed to hear it again.

"It's moving, I think it's going to kill," Harry said.

Harry runs past us. 

"Kill?" Ron asked. 

We run after him. 

"Harry wait! Not so fast!" Hermione calls to him.

"Harry, hold on!" I call.

He suddenly stopped and we saw many spiders running away through a cracked window.

"I don't like spiders," Ron stated. "What's that,"

We all look at what he's talking about, and see a puddle on the floor. In the reflection there is red writing on the wall. I look up and see words that appear to be written in blood.

"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened. Enemies of the heir, beware," Hermione reads. "It's written in blood,"

"Oh no," Harry says looking to his left. I look to see what he's looking at. I then see a torch, tied to the torch is a striped cat with red eyes, it's frozen, looking terrified. "It's Filch's cat. Mrs. Norris."

"Poor thing, I wonder what happened to her." I say.

Then a group of kids filled the corridor, seeming to spot the message.

"Enemies of the heir, beware," I hear Draco say, reading the writing. "You'll be next, Mudbloods," He sneers.

I glare a hole through him. His expression seems to soften a bit when he looks at me.

"What's going on here?" I hear Filch say. "Go on, make way, make way."

He sees Harry, "Potter... What are you.." He looks at Mrs. Norris, and looks horrified.

Oh no. This totally looks like WE did this to Mrs. Norris.

"Mrs. Norris?" He glares back at Harry, "You murdered my cat,"

"No. No" Harry tried to object.

"I'll kill you." Filch says, grabbing Harry by the shirt, "I'll kill you!"

"Argus?" I hear Dumbledore ask.

Filch lets go of Harry, as he comes back to us I hold on to him. Snape, McGonagall and Lockhart arrive also.

"Argus I.." Dumbledore says. He then looks at the writing on the wall. "Everyone will proceed to their dormitories immediately."

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I all go to follow the crowd.

"Everyone except," Dumbldore says, causing all of us to stop. "You four."

We turn around, I hoped that he was talking about another group of four, but it was very clear he was talking about us.

"She's not dead Argus. She has been petrified," Dumbledore confirms.

Filch seems to be trembling, but I'm sure he was relieved. Even though he wasn't the nicest, I couldn't help but feel bad for him.
