Xara took us over to a dark alley where we apperated into large, grassy field, with a beautiful green, grassy hill that held a beautiful two-story house. The house looked far too small to be able to be the boarding house that we were going to stay at. Yet, Xara started walking that way right as we landed and Aunt Rose and I had to run to catch up.

"Darling, wouldn't I know if this was or wasn't my own house?" She asked in response, and I nodded, slightly afraid.
When we got inside, there are told us where to put our stuff and asked us to sit on the couch. She said she was going to go get some snacks for us from the kitchen, so we sat down and waited for her to bring the snacks.
Suddenly, there was a loud, ear piercing scream from the floor above us.
