Saorise suddenly changed the tone of her voice, soudning slightly more girlish as she made her way past stall after stall. "You know... I heard those Black sisters talking about Myrtle the other day, they said such terrible remarks about her. All the Slytherin to be honest... something should be done to stop it... it just isn't fair. Pity really, Myrtle is such a beautiful ghost, the finest opaque apparation to ever grace these stalls. I just love her hair, very au naturale.."spoke Saorise knowing it made no sense at all, but it sounded complimetary.. hopefully it would have the affect she was hoping for. "I would just love to know how she keeps it in such fine condition. I hear it makes the Grey Maid go nearly pink with envy.. to think a ghost going pink!" finsihed Saorise as she heard a small giggle from a stall.
"It's nothing really...." spoke the a grey girl floating out from the last stall. "I hardly have to do anything to it.. it comes naturally like this.." spoke the Ghost beaming with pride.
"Really! Oh I would die for your hair...er....no pun inteneded.." spoke Saorise with large eyes knowing she just totally said the wrong thing.
"Oh.. so you mean my hair only looks good when I am dead! What a nice compliment.. only when it is transparent and hardly visable!" screamed the ghost as her eyes watered.
"Er no.. I've never seen you alive.. couldn't really do a comparsion.. you probaly look equally lovely as both..." Saorise looked nervously over towards Serena for help.

Serena then said, "Hello Myrtle. You look lovely today. What she said was a figure of speech. She means she do any thing to have hair like yours she loves it so much. As do I. I also love the pig tails. I can never manage it with my hair." She smiled at the ghost.

Saorise nodded her head vigorously at every word Serena spoke.
Myrtle finsihed crying with a loud hiccup. "Most people think pigtails or babyish, but I always knew I looked good with them."Myrtle smiled as she floated closer to the two. What did you say about the Black sisters?" asked Myrtle her cheeks turning a deep shade of grey.
Saorise grinned at Serena and gaver her the hugest look of gratitude.
"Er... they were saying the most horrible things about you... the most horrible and untrue things. They're jsut jealous, but something must be done, they can't get away with such rudness! If only we had a way to get into the Common Room ... a way to hear their password as they spoke it... but how could we get down there... we can't go through walls... without raising suspicion.."Spoke Saorise very sadly... and hopelessly as she cast over a look towards Serena wanting her to contribute as well.

Serena nodded and said, "Yes. I had such a grand plan to get back at them. I defend everyone who needs defending from insults to fighting except those rude Black Sisters. Could you maybe help us out?"

Myrtle floated silently as if thinking about it. She glanced around the room... her gaze falling upon her reflection in the mirror. "Well... I suppose....espcially if they are saying mean things about me... I bet I can get Peeves to help as well! Well make them pay!" yelled Myrtle as her face turned a deep shade of grey, blshing with anger possibly.
"Alright..." said Saorise in a whisper.. we must be quick.. stay undetected and most importantly avoid Peeves.. he won't help.. he'll rat on us. The lights are going to be out in a few minutes and we'll have to hurry to the dungeons in the dark.. lumos would attract a teacher.. or Peeves.. So Myrtle are you ready-"
But before Saorise could finish her sentence Myrtle went flying off towards the dungeons with all determination.
"Lets just hope she doesn't blow it...", muttered Saorise.. with a look back at Serena.

Serena nodded and said, "Come on." She then began rushing to the dungeons.

ooc// after writing this it had dawned on my that Dumbledore is a character, and that using him could possibly be godmoding. If there are any problems with this I will change my post.
"Wait!" called Saorise. "It's safer to wait here! They're shutting off the lights now.. checking for stralders! We'll be seen! get back in here!" Saorise felt like a total idiot she hadn't said anything about when they were going... and it could just ruin everything. She chased after Serena, her wand out pointed towards the slights. "Nox! Nox! Nox!" she said in a strained whisper and in the darkness she heard voices.
"Is that so Slughorn... I dearsay, who ever switched the potion labels does in deed have a pecuiliar sense of humor... "
"Peculiar sense of humor... bah! Peculiar liking for detention sounds more like it...I had to send the entire class to the hospital wing.. no serious injuries.. just a total waste of time it all was. An unecessary, unwelcome, unwanted waste of time."
Not being able to help grinning, Saorise snickered slightly, proud of the mayhem she cause. 'Wait detention..", Saorise gulped... so she did switch the labels...whoops. But how did they find out it was her.. she was so careful so-
"Unfortunately Slughorn, our phantom label mixer has left no trace of his or her indenity, so detention is definetly out of the quesiton. However I believe Filch took imeadiately too looking over other filed reports of pranks taking place in the potions class room, and their causers. Perhaps with luck, we'll find a serial potions prankster. But for now Horace, I suggest a good night's sleep is required and perhaps a better eye on your potions cupboard..."
Saorise felt able to breathe atlast, and now diverted her attention to finding Serena.
"Very well.. I won't bother with the arrangments tonight.. Goodnight Albus."
"And good night to you too Horace...hmm it is strangley dark in here... Filch must have put out the lights in here earlier then usual. I'll have to talk about this with him tomarrow..."
Saorise exhaled as she finally heard their retreating footsteps. 'The cupboard is still unprotected...Brilliant!', was all Saorise could think about at the moment. Getting back to business she worked to finding Serena. "Pstt Serena.. Serena.."

Serena then grabbed her and pulled her into an empty dungeon and said, "Be quiet. I was almost caught." She then looked out and beckoned Saorise to fallow her.

Saorise glowered. "No you almost had yourself caught... we had to wait for the lights to be put out first... so we couldn't be seen...wait aren't we getting potions supplies first? Slughorn said his cupboard is unprotected.. we'll have to get what we need from there. So we should take a moment to figure out exaclty what we are looking for before we enter such a danger zone. It's still a bit early.. some students may still be passing by." Whispered Saorise.. "I'll send Myrtle my partrous, so she knows where we are." With a wave of her wand and the uttering of the words, "expecto partronum", a riled up stallion flew from her wand, and raced soundlessy down the hall.
Grinning broadly she then looked over at Serena again... "what are we going to need?"

Serena then said, 'I'll go in and get it you just stand watch. Hide if anyone comes I'll jhear them coming so I'll be able to hide."

Saorise nodded, after all Serena was the potions girl here, she knew what they were going to need, having her go in was the more sensible thing. Taking out her wand Saorise was more then ready to stun anybody who planned to ruin the effots thus far.

Serena snuck in and went into the storecubboard and grabbed 3 bottles that were different colors, 1 white, 1 purple, the other a mud green. She then walked back out and said, "I got it. Let's go."

"We can't leave just yet we don't have the password.."whispered Saorise as she looked around for any signs of Myrtle. And soon enough the transluscent figure of a girl came bobbing their way, looking very pleased with herself.
"Well I've got it. They didn't even realise I was there I was so quiet, and sneaky." Myrtle beamed as she rised higher in the air with excitement. "The password is... Veritaserum..." Myrtle squealed... her voice barely audible though.
"That's brilliant Myrtle... but just one last thing... can you go ahead of us.. and tell us when you see someone coming.. so we don't get caught." asked Saorise... wanting to take every precaution to make this prank a reality.
"Gladly", said the ghost with a smile, obsolutley beside her self with joy, because she was involved with something so daring. And the very fact that they needed her was enough to make her do anything for them at that point. "Well come on you two.. follow me.." whispered the ghost as she lead the way.
And Saorise followed.

Serena followed and said, "Now this potion takes weeks to remove up to 3 so they'll be pretty pissed off."

Saorise laughed silently as they continued their journey down. It was getting cooler, and darker, the only light being from torches on the sides of the walls, giving off a sickly greenish light. Skulls were littered here and there and cobwebs cluttered each corner. "We must be getting closer.."said Saorise as a shiver went down her spine, they must have been under the lake.. it was so cold, so unaturally cold.
Finally their descent led them to a wall.
"I belive it is password time"... spoke the ghost with a smile.
"Hmmm.. a wall... how classy.", said Saorise haf expecting to see a portrait like the outside of the Gryffindor Common Room... but then again since those portraits are so sociable, the person in the painting probably wouldn't stay in their frame for too long, finding the dungeons a very lonley place.
"Okay.. right.. Veritaserum" said Saorise as she watched the wall seperate allowing them to enter holding her breath she took her wand and quickly went over her robes turning them green, and her hair brown after muttering a few incantations. Looking behind at Serena she waited for her to do the same... just in case someone happened to notice them.
