It was just another normal day at the school and though there had been some stranger then normal things going on the blond twins hadn't seen anything yet. They were walking along a corridor on the fifth floor, laughing back and forth at what the other one had to say and their laughter filled the corridor. There wasn't anything interesting going on so they had to find a way to keep themselves entertained. When there were two of you this was often easier and with minds like the twins had it was bound not to be dull for long.
Suddenly their laughter fell away and they started whispering to one another. They hunched over and lent against a wall just behind a large statue of a very ugly witch. They whispered to one another and looked up and down the corridor every so often to make sure no one was coming. Derryl pointed out that everyone was surely in the castle because the black clouds outside the windows were looking very threatening and it being a Thursday no one would be going anywhere outside the school walls.
They were waiting for someone to come along. That was all they needed. Someone - anyone - who would talk past the lovely ugly witch they were hiding behind and their day would pick up ten fold. It certainly helped that the corridor was so quiet, should anyone come along Aidan and Derryl would certainly hear footsteps before they got too close. It was very convenient for them that the castle was so big and drafty and that it did echo so well.
