"To find her, we have to think like her. What would a perfect world by Bianca be like..." he paused for a moment before snapping his fingers. "Jane. When we were younger, she and I would hang out on the Quidditch pitch for hours. She'd always talk about how she wanted to be closer with Jane."

Vincent nodded slowly. "That sounds very possible. I don't know their relationship very well, but it certainly seems like that would be the case with Bianca." He let out a long breath, closing his eyes for a moment. "Alright. Let's go."

"I think it's because they were always so different," Ricardo explained quietly. "Not to mention sorted into different houses. And she's always talk about how, being twins... In a way they were always pitted against each other. Jane excelled in the academic area, Bianca was better in..." He paused, unsure of how to word his response. "Other areas."

The Gryffindor nodded. "I guess it must be hard for the both of them. I can imagine Jane would want to be closer to Bianca too, but..." Vincent fell silent for a moment before shrugging. "Anyway, let's focus on getting to the quidditch pitch."

He nodded. "Just... Be careful. Especially when we find her. There's a reason Bianca's a Slytherin. And we can't let Jane make the whole... Monster transformation too soon, either."

"It'll be hard fighting the both of them if things go wrong," Vincent sighed. "But... We have to have hope. We have to find a way out of here."

"Mostly we just have to time things right." Ricardo looked around as people began to appear. Just normal students, going about a normal day. But something cold settled in the pit of his stomach when he got a good look at one.
They had no face.

"What are they doing here?" Vincent whispered, watching the students warily. "I thought this place was supposed to be empty besides us and our friends. Unless we've crossed over into somewhere different..."

"I dunno, I guess Bianca just likes having lots of people around. She doesn't seem the type to want to be in a huge castle with only a handful of people."

Vincent only nodded, weaving through the crowd. He could just see the large doors that led out to the grounds, but the density of faceless students was increasing and he found it harder and harder to make his way against the current of bodies.

Ricardo noticed a familiar figure walking among the crowd. Heart pounding in his chest, he yanked Vincent over to hide in a hallway as Bianca's versions of Ricardo and Xander walked past.

Vincent let himself be dragged to the sode of the hallway, watching Bianca's Ricardo and Xander suspiciously.

The two were hand in hand, talking as they walked th trough the large crowds. Every time they brushed past another student, for that moment, they had a face.

"Hmm..." Vincent watched them until they'd passed and were a safe distance away. He glanced at Bianca's Xander once more before taking Ricardo's hand in his own and leading him along the wall, where it was easier to move past the people.

Ricardo sighed as they walked. "Of course. In Bianca's ideal world, all of her ships would be canon."

"Yeah, well, not in mine," Vincent muttered. They were almost at the doors. He would be glad to get outside. It was starting to get pretty claustrophobic in this hallway.

After down more struggling, they made it out. The sunlight was bright and honey-gold, tinting the grounds. Humidity was strong in the air as well; it made Ricardo's hair slightly more frizzy than it normally would have been. "It's just like Italy," he breathed. "Exactly like Italian weather. It's amazing how these worlds get every detail of a person's wants."

"Yeah," Vincent agreed, looking around with interest, even though it was a view he saw nearly every day. "Well, let's see what we can find down at the quidditch pitch."

Ricardo nodded, starting down the fields. He reached out his hand to grab Vincent's, but after a moment's hesitation, he withdrew it. "How can we get her away from fake Jane without making either of them suspicious?"

"Maybe we can tell her something's wrong with her pet cat," he suggested, knowing it was probably a bad one. "Or that we need to talk to Bianca about something."
