𝐃𝐔𝐌𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓 all of the Gryffindor's to the Great Hall where they were later joined by Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin's who looked reasonably confused.
"Oh, come off it," Alena complained to the passerby's. "What's life without a little risk? Besides, you don't even know if it was me, so knowing how gorgeous I am, do take your eyes off me!" A random Slytherin muttered as she walked pass. "Of course, now it's all about Alena Black this year..." Abruptly, the Black spun on her heels facing the Slytherin, her body filled with adrenaline. "Well, of course, why wouldn't it be? I'm gorgeous, smart, powerful, and you're... not." As she got ready to walk back towards Harry, Ron and Hermione, she doubled-back. "I would get moving, if you don't want to be dessert." Not literally, of course.
Undeterred by the altercation, Professor Dumbledore settled on addressing the circumstance beforehand. Clearing his throat, as Professors McGonagall and Flitwick closed all the doors to the hall.

"Everyone into their sleeping bags," Percy shouted. "C'mon, now, no more talking! Lights out in ten minutes!" The veela rolled her amber eyes. "Come on, let's go before Percy gets a power trip." The Quartet grabbed their sleeping bags and dragged them into a corner.
"Do you think Black's still in the castle?" Hermione asked anxiously.
"Dumbledore obviously thinks he might be," Ron stated the obvious.
