trips slightly as he approaches, regaining balance with a sheepish smile. "Er, h-hi there! You come here often?"
I went into the black lake, after a few minutes. My eyes slowly opened. And I found myself in the chamber of secrets. i was wearing my pajamas now they were torn and I looked around
eyes widen in surprise The Chamber of Secrets?! But, but how did you get there? Are you...are you the one who's been leaving these mysterious notes all over the castle?
leans in closer, voice low and filled with intrigue Well, then what happened to you? How did you end up in that secret chamber?
leans back, hands on his hips Well, we can't just sit here and do nothing! We gotta find out what happened to you, and maybe even figure out how to get back there.
hey, it’s probably a dream. He said I’m not real. Maybe I am not real?
grabs Hazel's shoulders gently, looking them straight in the eye No, Hazel, you're real. I know you're real.
he said someone put me in a basin of water and pulled me out. Then I found myself in the chamber
pauses for a moment, deep in thought A basin of water, huh? That does sound pretty strange. But if you were really pulled out of it...
maybe I won’t go back in the water basin because of the snake
quickly grabs a wand from his pocket Here, let me try something. points the wand at the ground "Wingardium Leviosa!" the floor starts to levitate, and Harry guides it to form a solid barrier around them
wait, are we going to look for that basin?
nods, determined Yeah, we have to find that basin and see if there's any evidence of your being pulled out of it. We'll search every corner of this place if we have to!
but why would someone want to put me in the basin of water? They didn’t want to kill me right away
runs a hand through his hair, thinking You know, Hazel, this whole situation is starting to sound like some kind of twisted mystery.
I mean, there's obviously a reason why they dumped you into that chamber, but it's not to kill you. That's what makes this so weird. They must have wanted you alive for some reason.
paces back and forth, deep in thought Okay, let's think about this.
what if they wanted to study me or something? Like I’m some sort of magical creature?
As Harry and Hazel continue their investigation, they uncover a dark secret about the Chamber of Secrets and the mysterious group known as the Order of the Phoenix.
I wonder if my parents are ok
stops pacing, quickly turns to face Hazel Your parents? Don't worry, Hazel. We'll find them.
smiles reassuringly No need to thank me, Hazel. We're friends now, right? We'll stick together and get through this together.
laughs nervously Oh, right! Sorry, Hazel. I keep forgetting that. It's just...
