Dominic sighed, "No, the whole building would probably collapse," he stared at the door for another few seconds before stepping across the creaking floorboards to an open doorway. Inside there was a large, four poster bed and a fainting couch. They were covered in dust and had gashes in the cloth, they may have once been a deep red, but had faded so badly you couldn't be sure.

Rhyannon followed and when inside.She looked at a wall very closely."Dominic,"She said still looking."I think something is here."She said and started pushing on the wall,going all along that whole wall.And she found a bookcase and she put her hand on the top and found a knot.
She pushed it and it opened."Dominic,"She called again.Still hoping he was still there."Look a secret passage way."She said

Dominic came over to her, he had been examining the worn etchings on the wood of the bed. "You think?" he asked, it could easily have just been a closet. He shown his wandlight into the space.

Rhyannon nodded and took out her wand."Lumos,"She muttered under her breath.And a light came out of her wand and she followed the hallway."It might lead to that room we couldn't get in."She whispered.

Dominic walked down the hall, "Stay there until I'm sure there's a way out," he said, stepping carefully. He came to the end quickly, there was an obvious outline and he pressed gently, the wall swayed open. "Come on," he called, stepping into the room. It was surprisingly clean and well kept up compared to the rest of the house. It appeared to be a library or a study of sorts.

Rhyannon stopped and waited.Until he called and said it was okay.She went into the room."Why would they have this locked I wonder?"She asked looking around.

Dominic walked up to one of the tall shelves and read one of the titles, his eyes widened and he ran a finger across the spine. "Moste Dangerous Cur- ouch!" he cursed loudly accidentally as an arch of electricity zapped his hand. Automatically putting it to his mouth, he muttered, "Well, that explains it."

Rhyannon was about ready to touch a book when Dominic said."Ouch."She turned and she went over to him."Are you okay?"She asked.

"Yeah," he said, bringing his hand down. "Don't touch the books." It was an obvious statement, but one that needed saying.

"No problem."She said moving away from the books a little.Rhyannon turned her head and then she heard a creak outside the door."Dominic,"She whispered."I don't think we are alone."She said going over to the door and listening.

Dominic's head jerked towards the door, eyes narrowed. He pointed his wand at the door, "Get away from the door, we should go back." He didn't know what was outside the door, but with the books that were in the room, he could about guarantee they weren't friendly.

Rhyannon nodded and she held her wand watching the door closly has she began to leave the room.She went to the other room and found the other person was going the other way back down the stairs.Then he turned and started toward the open door.She went back as quietly as she could and she pulled the bookcase closed.She heard the footsteps come in and she waited for them to recede.She put her hand up to show Dominic don't move.

Dominic kept his wand trained on the locked door, just knowing that someone would burst in at any moment. "Rhy, what's going on?" he whispered, the words barely audible.

Rhyannon turned and looked at Dominic."Someone is in the other room."She whispered as quietly as she could.There was a crack were the bookcase and hole met.She looked out and she saw the person was receding down the stairs.She heard the door slam and then she sat on the floor relived."They are gone."She sighed standing up."I purpose that we go before they come back."She said going back into the room waiting for Dominic.

"Definitely," Dominic said, following her. He glanced back into the room, some of the books were on genealogy, possibly his ancestors. Pulling himself away, he shut the entrances and walked out of the room, "Come on, we don't know how long they'll be."
