Since the first day of school, She had always wanted to go inside the Whomping Willow. She didn't know why,but she just felt that she had to go in there. Unfortunately,she never got the opportunity to. Swamp with homework,attempting not to get lost,hanging out with friends,working as a reporter for the daily prophet,spending time with her Wolfsbane...she never had time.
But she finally did on the last day of school before summer started. She was just walking aimlessly around the school,letting her feet carry her around, when she suddenly found herself outside,facing the direction of the Whomping Willow.
She looked back at the castle, as if she felt someone staring at her. You're crazy! No one is watching you.,She thought to herself, Come on,go. No one will notice and it's just for a few minutes. With that in mind,she trudge her way towards the place that had been occupying her mind for the better part of the school year.

Circe stood in the shadows watching Artemis. Sure this might look like she was stalking her but Circe wasn't. She had just been walking around the grounds when she noticed Artemis walking in the direction of the womping willow. Circe knew that it was a dangerous place to go. You know with all the smashing of things an what not. So she followed her to make sure she was okay.
Finally when they reached the tree Calipto came out of the shadows. "Artemis what are you doing here?" She asked like she hand just bumped into her.

Artemis jumped and looked towards Circe.
"Oh! It's you, you scared me." She said,placing a hand over her racing heart.
"um..I going into the Whomping Willow." She admitted looking at the tree in wonder.

"Sorry I didn't mean to scare you." Circe said.
Circe knew a few things about the Whomping Willow. She noticed there was a small opening by the trunk but never dared to go near it. The last thing she wanted was to get Whomped to death by that Willow tree. "Can I come with you? I've always wanted to know what was in there." Circe asked.

Circe gulped as the made their way to the deadly tree. Clearly she must be crazy today. After all she had just asked to join Artemis into the Whomping Willow, which would probably kill them before they could enter. "Um do you even have any plan to get past the whomping Willow, without getting whomped?" Circe asked.

Artemis looked at Circe.
"Nope!" She said cheerily, walking a little bit closer. The Tree stirred,but stayed still. She turned to look at Circe and grinned.
"Do you?"

Circe tried to think of something. The first thing that came to her mind was stop drop and roll. She really doubted that would work. "Um how about jump dodge and dive?" She asked as they got closer.

Artemis looked up at the tree thoughtfully.
"Or..We could do this. Wingardium Leviosa." She said,pointing her wand at a twig. The twig levitate from the ground, and with a flick of Artemis's wand, the twig hit a hole in the trunk. The tree seem to freeze.
Artemis smiled at turned to Circe. "How's that?"

Artemis shrugged.
"I don't know. I heard the tree was build for Remus Lupin when he was in the school. Apparently,he was a werewolf." She said,before crawling inside the hole.

"Oh,Lighten up Circe. This tree was build for Mr.Lupin, Who else will out Headmistress give this place to? You have nothing to wor-Whoa!" Artemis said as she caught sight of what the Whomping Willow was hiding. The walls were peeling and old chairs and couches laid scattered across the living room..well what was left of it.
"It's the Shrieking Shack!" Artemis gasped, looking around the room in awe.

Circe looked around in aww. It didn't look like this place was used in a 100 or maybe even 200 years! She had never been in here before. She was to afraid to go up in this house before.
"Um why don't we uh head back." Circe said.

Artemis without glancing at Circe,tugged on her arm and kept walking.
"Come one Circe,Live a little. How many chances do we get to be inside the WHOMPING WILLOW?" She asked once she was standing right in front of the stairs. She turned to look at brunette friend expectantly.
