I and Hermione walked to the bathroom and we each got into a stall. We shut the door and I just sat down while listening to the quiet sobs of Hermione.

I will not cry. I will not cry. I will not cry.

I didn't want to cry. I wanted to scream. I wanted to yell. But I felt like that I should reassure Hermione.

"Mione?" I asked.

"Y-yes?" She croaked.

"They're lying. You're my best friend." I said smiling.

I got out of the stall.

"Come on, Mione. Let's go to the Halloween feast and eat all the delicious candy! And show them that we have friends!" I said.

She opened the stall door and I saw that she wasn't crying anymore.

"Yeah, let's go!" Said Hermione.

We started to walk out when all of a sudden the ground shook. And we heard grunts.

"Uh, what's happening??" I asked.

"Where's Hermione and Hannela?" I asked.

"Parvati Patil said that they wouldn't come out of the girl's bathroom. She said that they been in there all afternoon...crying." Replied Neville.

"Um, Ron? Maybe we should go apologize," I turned to Ron who was just stuffing his face.

He shrugged and continued eating.

Professor Quirrell burst through the doors. "TROLL! IN THE DUNGEON! T-TROOLLL IN THE DUNGEON!!"

Dumbledore rose from his seat in concern. Everyone looks at Quirrell. "Thought you ought to know." He said while fainting.

There was complete silence then screams. Everyone started screaming and running.

"SILLLLLEEENNNNCEEEEE!" Yelled Dumbledore.

"Everyone will please, not panic. Now, Prefects will lead their houses back to the dormitories. Teachers will follow me to the dungeons." Instructed Dumbledore.

We all got up and started following Percy.

"Gryffindors, keep up, please. And stay alert!" Shouted Percy.

"How could a troll get in?" I asked.

"Not by itself. Trolls are really stupid. Probably people playing jokes." Replied Ron.

I stopped and then I remembered. Hermione and Hannela! They don't know! What of the troll gets them!

"Ron!" I whispered shouted.

"What?" He asked.

"Hermione! Hannela! They don't know! I told him.

We ran through the corridors and then we stopped. We heard a grunt and loud footsteps. I saw a shadow of a large creature. The troll.. it was going to the bathroom!
