"It's too early for a sunday."
Brittany yawned as Hermione stirred in more knotgrass to the polyjuice potion.
"You heard Flitwick, Colin's been petrified. Malfoy's started attacking students."
Hermione said. Brittany shrugged and climbed over the stall door.
"No one's coming. No one ever comes here. Plus, this toilet's green, absolutely disgusting..."
She balanced on the edge of the top.
"It's wobbly as well."
Ron muttered something that made Hermione whisper,
"Ron!"
Brittany put her arms on the barrier and pushed herself up.
"This is quite uncomfortable."
She swung a leg over.
"I hope I don't fall."
Hermione rolled her eyes. Brittany stumbled over and very precariously landed on the top of the toilet.
"Your water proof fire is burning amazingly."
Ron told Hermione. Hermione smiled.
"Thanks."
Brittany heard a noise.
"There's someone coming."
Hermione stopped stirring and Ron stood as still as a statue.
"Guys it's me."
Harry's voice was heard.
"Harry! You almost gave us a heart attack!"
Hermione unlocked the stall.
"Listen, I've got to tell you something, Colin's been-"
Hermione interrupted him.
"Petrified, we know. We heard Professor McGonagall telling Flitwick."
Harry nodded.
"And one more thing. Dobby-"
Brittany interrupted him this time.
"The house elf?"
Harry nodded.
"Said that the Chamber has been opened before.'
Ron looked amazed.
"Malfoy's dad must've opened it while he was at school, and he's taught Draco how to do it!"
Hermione frowned.
"We won't know until the polyjuice is ready. Which will be soon. I just need bicorn horn and boomslang skin."
Harry nodded.
"Snape's office."
