As the beast roared moving quickly around the corner into the corridor, the girls hoped Nessa was at the end of the corridor so as not to get run over.
BAM!!
Lessien flew out from behind the curtain to see the creature dazed at the end of the corridor holding his head with his huge clawed hands. "Nessa..." Lessien started to go forward when Telery grabbed her arm.
"She's fine. Let's go do those spells before it decides that it's head is okay after all." Telery started off with Lessien at her heels.
Lessien was worried for her classmate but also knew that if they didn't bind the creature that all their lives would be in more danger than they already were.

If she was not in so much danger she might have found it more enjoyable. It was following her; the nasty smelly thing was following her best it could. But its head injury was making it slower, better for her she decided. And she supposed it didn’t help that every few minutes she would slip in and out of the cloak popping up in different places, then disappearing either farther away or close enough to make it hit itself after she’d already gone. But the end of the hall was getting closer; she only hoped that when she disappeared in one spot at the end and move it would think she was still in that same place.
And she was growing confident in thinking that way for it would smash the place she had been a couple of times. And to urge it to think the same she would appear in the same places once in a while. Better to make it think the way it was than letting it learn… even if that were a very unlikely thing to happen.

Lessien was glad Nessa was okay...at least she appeared to be in the few seconds she could spot here every now and then. However Lessien didn't have time to worry anymore about her friend as spells were flying all about from all the girls' wands.
"Lessien pay attention," Telery shouted and Lessien jumped down out of the way as one clawed hand flew over her head.
"Thanks!" Lessien shouted as she pointed her wand and continued to try all the binding spells she knew. "We don't need any help right?" Suddenly a band of magic flew around the beast and Lessien smiled, "Never mind, we almost got it. I hope."

"Ofcourse we don't!" Telery's binding and stunning spells rushed through the air towards the beast. The spells were definately efffecting the monster, but it's skin was too thick for them to really work seperately.
After each hit it got more and more annoyed and started smashing and stamping around more and more furiously. When one of his enormous, hairy claws barely missed Telery, she ucked away and shouted: "We need to hit it all in the same place, to stun it, and then we can properly bind it! Aim for the head."
Telery quickly moved through the hall avoiding the swerving claws and kept her wand directed at its head. "Stupefy! Stupefy!"

Lessien slammed her head and back into the wall while avoiding the claws once more while doing as Telery suggested. Aiming for the head she shouted spells all the while praying that Telery was right. "Nessa, aim for the head!"

Taking out her wand and poking her arm out of the invisibility cloak Nessa began to shoot spells at the creature's head. Sparks flew and light dances in the dark hall way it was a wonder why no one from out of the hall heard the ruccus and saw the light and didn't come hurrying in. But in all reality they were alone and by combing spells they would have a better chance.
Soon the monster began to sway the dazzling spells becoming to much for his slow brain. And with a thud he nocked against a wall and came tumbling down. Nessa let out a yelp as she was forced down by being crushed by his forearm and struggled frustraited to be in such an uncomfortable position. Not to mention the stench was enough to make her want to gag. She wished she could see if the others were ok, but since her current situation would not allow it she decided to call out.
"Telery? Lessien... are you guys all right?" She asked in short grunts as the dust the creature had kicked up began to settle so the cloud began to dispear.

"Umm, I think so." Lessien said slowly looking sideways towards the direction of Nessa's voice. "This thing is drooling all over me though, and his breath is well, let's just say if I don't pass out from the smell I should be fine. I don’t feel anything broken, but the smell could be overcoming the pain.” She grimaced while trying to smile, “What about Telery?”

Telery ame up fron the dust covered floor with some difficutly and leaned against the wall for support. While one of the beasts forarms covered Nessa, the claw of the other had finally been able to do some damage, her leg was tingling all over and she felt her socks become wet with blood, she bit her lip and covered her leg with her robe again. She walked to where Lessiens voice came from, linping a little and using the wall for support.
"I'm reasonably fine, a scratch on my leg, nothing I think can't be healed in a flash. Butthat's for later, first we have to think about what to do with this fellow. Let's bind him first." She once more took out her want and aimed it a a bare patch of skin in his face: "Petrificus Totalus" The body went all rigid, but the beast remained unconscious. "What now?" She said, resting back against the wall once more, almost forgetting about Nessa, when another grunt came from the other side of the monster.
"Oh gosh, Nessa, do you need some help?" Following Lessien, Telery limped to Nessa and with the two of them they were able to lift the huge smelly arm a little so that Nessa could crawl out from under it. When Nessa was stangin on her feet again they all took a step back, and looked at the enourmous form in front of them.

"Now what do we do?" Lessien looked around, "We seriously need to hide him before someone comes looking around here to find the source of all the racket. Not to mention do some healing spells." She smiled slightly at Telery, "Thanks for the assist by the way. I doubt I could've gotten out of there by myself. Dang things head weighs more than I can bench press."
The girls giggled slightly before becoming silent, wondering what to do with the body.

When the giggling ceased they all looked at it. It was something between a troll and something else now that they had a good look at it. Maybe it was a different breed all together they didn't know. But they knew they had to do something about it.
"Well..." Both girls looked at Nessa hoping she had an idea, and waited for her to continue. "We can either get a teacher- after we have cleaned up and tell em we found it here... or does any one know a spell to make it simply disapear?"
The question was never answered for Filch came huring over in a burst of fury with a few of the profesors close behind. The girls all exchanged glances and knew that if they did not think of something quick they would be in big trouble.
"Professors! Thank heaven your hear!" Nessa shouted. Telery and Lessien looked at her like she was nuts.
"What is the meaning of this?" It was Professor Snape. Nessa made a face of instant dislike but wiped it clean before he saw it.
"We were trying to get out of the dungeons because we heard that there was something down here... And then." She was pretending to be emotional, Telery and Lessien could tell, but the teachers could not seem to tell. "It came after us!" She told them hoping and praying that her lieing skills were as good here as they were at home.

"Not to mention we had to fight pretty hard to get it under control," Lessien muttered. When Snape looked at her she grimaced, "We were barely able to survive it's attack when you showed up!" Letting loose a semi-hysterical laugh she shook her head, "I think I'm in shock, don't mind me." She glanced at the other two and hoped that their story would be convincing enough. Hopefully the girls would act like they were all together because she didn't relish the idea of explaining what she was doing down here by herself.

Telery leaned against the wall, the pain in her leg increasing every second. Lessien and Nessa tried to convince the professors that they were here by accident. Telery pushed her self off and stood up straight, and looking at professor Snape, who though she didn't belong to Slytherin, didn't seem to hate her guts like all the rest of the non-Slytherin students. "Professor, we really couldn't help it. I was one my way to your office, to talk about the Euphoria Potion we had to make last class, because I was doing some research in a few books and I thought I had found a way to counterbalance some of the negative side effects."
As the lie spun out of her mouth, she knew he would believe her, and that if she could only find a way to give Lessien and Nessa a real good alibi they'd be out of the woods. But her head was starting to feel fuzzy, and it became harder to focus. "Nessa helped me out to find the books and the information I needed, you know, she is in the class too, and she was the one I had to test my potion on, and the excessive singing and nose-tweaking was kind of bothering her, so we decided to find something to do about that. We got almost kicked out of the library because of the singing."
Nessa smiled at Snape as nicely as she could. Telery grabbed Lessien's arm, her knees were wobbling. "In the dungeons we ran into Lessien who came back from visiting Draco." This was probably the only true thing in her whole story. "She told us that Draco had told her, that you weren't in your office, so we were going back again, when we heard it and we started to run, not really knowing where we were going. And than we came here and..." Telery swung on her legs and her eyes turned in her head and, before anybody could grab her, she fell to the floor with a bang.

"Merlin!" Lessien gasped as she kneeled down quickly on her rather pained body, "Telery!"
"Miss Thurgood. We do not use that kind of language here at Hogwarts."
Lessien rolled her eyes at Professor McCongagall's statement, "Sorry Professor, but I was just a little concerned for Telery here." Biting her lip at the pain and hoping that no one would notice her sarcasm Lessien proceeded to try to stop the flow of blood from Telery's leg. Taking a deep breathe she glanced at Nessa, "We need to get her to Madame Promfrey as soon as possible." Without looking at anyone else, Lessien motioned Nessa over and the two carefully got Telery into an upright position.
"What are we doing?" Nessa asked before motioning to their wands when Lessien looked at her curiously.
"Geez, why didn't I think of that? I'm a moron." Shaking her head she reached for her wand with one hand while trying to support Telery with the other. "Ack. Accio wand..." Now that she had her wand she glanced at Nessa once more and gave a pained smile noticing she already had hers, "Show off."
Sharing a smile the girls quickly pointed their wands at Telery and, "Wingardium Leviosa," they had her in the air and were about to start moving towards the infirmary when...

OOC: Oh! Oh! I’m in such a weird mood right now!
There was a bang! Louder than anything any of them had ever heard before! The professors put their hands over their ears and Nessa and Lessien did their best not to drop Telery in mid air. The whole place seemed to shake! Then there was screaming and running and they all knew whatever it was was not good and it had chased half the school down into the dungeons!
“What now?!” The two girls shouted together.
“Lessien what are you doing down here?!” It was Draco, his wand was out and a bunch of others were with him. They looked at the bound creature, the professors, Telery floating clumsily now in the air and then Nessa and Lessien trying to grab their bearings.
“Draco- what is going on?!”
OOC: I got really overly excited writing that paragraph… I don’t know why…

Even though the noise was loud enough to wake a sedated bear in hibernation, Telery remained unconscious, blood dripping slowly from her leg onto the floor, leaving a small puddle.
Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape came rushing towards the girls again, but when they saw Draco and his bunch of Slytherins they stopped dead in their tracks. Snake looked at Draco in a suspicious manner, while McGonagall exploded in a tirade of angry words:
"WHAT IS GOING ON TONIGHT!!!! First we hear that there's a monster on the loose and command all students to go the their common rooms as fast as possible! Then their an incredible racket and noise in the dungeons. and when we come down here YOU THREE.." Pointing and the stunned Nessa and Lessien and the unconscious and unaware Telery, "are standing here among the mess of a battle with an unconscious Troll, no, well that doesn't matter, THAT THING lying next to you, before we know we have an unconscious student and now this... Turning furiously to Draco, her eyes wide and livid. Obviously a meltdown Nessa thought, trying not the laugh at the the whole thing. "And now THIS NEW NOISE!" McGonagall continued, and more students out of their common rooms. I want an explanation young man. AND I WANT ONE NOW!"
