SEARCHES FOR THE CHAMBER

Morgana glared at the snake that was coiled up in her arms, "Where is it?"

"I'm not telling."

She huffed angrily as she kept walking through the corridors. She had been going at it for years, but never once did the thought of giving up occur to her.

She stopped at one of the bathrooms and opened it, rolling her eyes when it was clear that it wasn't there either.

"You're missing an important detail."

Morgana stopped as she thought over what Thomas had just said..Detail. Detail. Detail..

Her eyes widened as she thought about the ghost living in one of the bathrooms. She rushed through the corridors and stopped at the bathroom and opened the door, "Myrtle?"

"Who calls for me?" Moaning Myrtle questioned and stopped at the sight of the girl, "Are you here to make fun of me?!"

"Yes. Your glasses are far too huge." Morgana said monotonously, wanting the ghost to leave.

Myrtle started sobbing and rushed into a toilet, making Morgana breathe in relief. She walked to the sinks and started inspecting them, while Thomas was almost shaking with anticipation.

She stopped at one of the sinks that showed..snakes? "Open." She hissed, eyes slightly widening when it opened, "Stairs."

Morgana snapped out of her daze when she realized that she hadn't been the one to summon the stairs. She glared at the smirking man infront of her, "Change back, Marvolo. Someone might come."

Tom dismissed her with a wave of his hand and motioned for her to get into the chamber.

Morgana stared at the Salazar Slytherin statue, while Tom rolled his eyes, "Summon it, come on!"

"How the circe can I summon the monster?"

"Say 'Speak to me Slytherin, Greatest of Hogwarts four' in parseltongue while holding out a hand infront of the statue."

Morgana gave him a look, "Egoistical much?"

Tom's lips twitched into an almost-smile, "Go on!"

Morgana rolled her eyes as she backed away from the statue and hold out a hand, "Speak to me Slytherin, Greatest of Hogwarts Four."

A noise of rumbling echoed through the chamber. Morgana stared, awestruck at the sight of a basilisk emerging within the statue, "Who are you? Who summoned me?"

"I'm Morgana Belladona Gaunt.." Morgana replied, snapping out of her shock, "You might know him," she pointed to Tom, who was smirking, "He's Tom." The name sounding unfamiliar on her tongue as she had never called him that.

"Am I finally going to be let out?" The basilisk hissed excitedly.

"Yes. Soon. What's your name?"

"Medusa."

"I like her." Morgana grinned as she started stroking her scales. Tom let himself finally smile as she turned away, "Indeed?"

"Yeah."
