Ami ducked into the room, coarse wooden door slamming shut behind her. As she'd told Alecto, the dog was next, right? The dog always came after the thing in the hallway. Surely she could defeat it the same way. Dodging and ducking around the materials (like vases and old desks, chew toys for the cerberus really) in the room, until she bought enough time to slip right under the trap door. Yes, it was a flawless plan, and it was flawless because she'd done it many times before. She was beginning to realize this wasn't deja vu- she was actually experiencing these things over and over. What exactly were those portals then? Recurring time loops? Insanity? It bothered Ami that she couldn't pick it apart and figure it out, but then, that was life.
Besides, she had larger things to focus on. MUCH larger, actually. Her attentions turned back to the enormous three headed dog, which the orange-headed girl next to her was now trying to talk to. What in the world? First that boy had attempted to reason with it, and now this orange-head was trying to reason with it. What strange things happened at this school of Hogwarts! She never read anything like this in the books.
"Ami," she called out to the girl, who was now attempting to reason with the cerberus. "And I think you should stop before he-"
A snap of jaws.
"Gets angry."

Actually, the orange-head was right. The way forward WAS through that trapdoor there. Ami knew because, as iterated before, she'd been many times. That, and she'd read Harry Potter so many times that she practically had the book memorized. It was her bible, and J.K. Rowling, her god.
She was going to tell her to go for it, but the firecracker ran after without her, leaving Ami in the tracks of dust she kicked up. Had this room been so dirty before? Well it WAS a doghouse. It would have been weird if it was clean. Ami was just thankful they were at least courteous enough to clean up any ... droppings the dog might have left. At least, there were none that she could see.
She put the thought far out of her mind, reaching down to pick up her wand that she'd dropped on the way in. It was useless, of course, she knew that, but something about the stick of wood made her feel comfortable, confident even. Like hey- maybe she really COULD take on the cerberus. She could do it, she could defeat the dark lord.

Of course, then the dog barked a few feet away from her face, and all that confidence was lost. She screamed and threw the wand at the dog's face, which of course did nothing. It was like a tiny flick to the foot of a giant, a needle to a skyscraper. Without its magical properties, the wand would do her absolutely no good against this monster.
So instead she ran, bolting around the room like she was the flash incarnate. Ami would never EVER be a physically adept person- not even with Deus Ex's training regime, but even Ami knew that big dog equaled dinner time, and she was on the menu. She ran as fast as her little legs would take her which, with her stature, wasn't very far at all.
She ran headfirst into the wall, and ended up backed into a corner that had been filled with old books. Funny, at least she was going to die amongst her favorite possessions, buried in the pages of a good book or two. Had the situation been more pleasant, she might have actually WISHED for a burial with books.
Instead she got the snapping of jaws, and she was spat back out of the portal. Whoops.
