Ron and (y/n) led the way to the Myrtles bathroom as Harry followed behind Lockhart, his wand digging into his back. Myrtle was sitting on the windowsilll when they walked in. She smiled upon seeing Harry, giving him a flirty wave.
"Hello Harry. What are you doing here?" she asked.
"To ask how you died." Harry replied.
"Oh, it was dreadful. It happened right here," she said flying down to hover over one of the stalls. "In this very cubicle. I'd hidden because Olive Hornby was teasing me about my glasses. I was crying, and then I heard somebody come in."
"Who was it?" Harry asked.
"I don't know! I was distraught! But they said something funny. A kind of made-up language. And I realized it was a boy speaking. So I unlocked the door, to tell him to go away, and then...I died." Myrtle explained.
"Just like that? How?" Ron asked.
"No idea. I just remember seeing a pair of great big yellow eyes. Over there." Myrtle said, pointing to the sinks.
They all ran over to the sinks to examine them for any kind of clues. (y/n) stared at the sink in front of her. She wouldn't have noticed it if she was just walking by but it had a snake on it.
"Hey, I think I found something." she said. Ron and Harry quickly walked over to examine.
"This is it. This is the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets." Harry declared.
"Say something then...in Parseltongue that is." Ron instructed.
Harry stared at the sink and began to speak. The snake began to move slightly before opening up to reveal a large pipe that led straight down.
"Excellent, Harry. Good work. I'll just be going then since there's no need for me." Lockhart remarked as he turned to leave.
"You first." Harry instructed, pointing his wand at the Professor.
Lockhart looked at Harry nervously before slowly walking over to the opening and peering down into it. He turned back around quickly.
"Now what good will that do?" he asked.
"A bloody lot of good if it's a two hundred foot drop onto jagged rocks." Ron answered, now pulling out his wand.
(y/n) joined and pointed her wand at him as well. Lockhart slowly backed up with his hands raised. He misstepped and fell into the opening, screaming on his way down. The three waited silently until he hit the ground.
"It's really quite filthy down here." Lockhart mentioned.
"Let's go." Harry instructed the two.
"Oh, Harry! If you die down there, you're welcome to share my toilet." Myrtle offered.
(y/n) looked at Harry and raised her eyebrows up and down. Harry looked at her with his lips tightly shut together then back at Myrtle.
"Thanks Myrtle." he said.
He turned around and jumped down the opening without second thought. (y/n) followed right after and Ron after her. She saw all of the different pipelines on her way down, wondering where those went to. When she reached the bottom, she landed on the hard stone. Standing up, she looked around and saw they were in some sort of tunnel. Harry already had his wand drawn.
"Lumos!"
The tunnel instantly brightened as they carefully looked around.
"Remember. Any sign of movement close your eyes straight away." Harry warned, looking directly at (y/n). "Got it?"
