Ellie, the fake, was in need of information fast. She needed books on everything to know about groundskeeping. There was one dilemma: she couldn't have so many people know that she had no experience in maintaining the grounds.
"Just my luck, the day I decide to check out some books on gardens... there seems to be no book on the subject," she groaned. "Dios mios,"
Perhaps she could ask the librarian, or a student. The system here was much different that the one in Illuminatus, and she wasn't sure what to do. Aye, Ellie... tu eres tan estúpida. She closed her eyes and ran her fingers through her messy hair. "Academic awards, and you still can't find a simple book in the library? Eres inútil,"
She went up the front desk and rang on the tiny bell. "Um... excuse me? Er... can you help me find a book on gardens?"

Abigail was sitting at a round six-chaired table near the front desk, and she couldn't help but look up as someone tapped the bell. Ting. Why hadn't she picked a different table? One at the back of the library; that bell was uberly annoying. I'll make that a mental note, she thought to herself as she looked over the person asking for help. Not a student, but a young and beautiful woman. A professor? Not one Abby had.
"Can I help you with anything?" she asked rather softly, as her voice always was, but also because they were in the library after all. She held her brown hair back with her right hand, her elbow propped up on the table and book opened before her. A couple other books were stacked to the Hufflepuff's left; however those remained untouched and unopened.

Ellie's eyes shifted. Could she trust this girl? Yes, I can. She smiled at Abigail and sighed in relief. "Yes, do you know where I can find books on gardening giant pumpkins? I couldn't find any..."
Halloween was coming up, and as the Groundskeeper it was her duty to plant the giant pumpkins for decorative and baking purposes. I'll make sure to give her house points, Ellie thought, making a mental note.
"Er.. I'm the new Astronomy professor," she said, feeling the need to introduce herself. She bowed her head slightly to the girl. "Pleased to meet you, my name is Professor Solis,"
Professor Solis... it sounds very different from what I'm used to.

Abigail, feeling the need to be polite, pushed her chair back and walked over to the new professor. "I'm Abigail Bennett," she introduced herself. "Nice to meet you. I'm not sure about gardening, but there's a whole section devoted to Herbology. You might be able to find something there." The Huffle pointed to a group of shelves on the left side of the library and smiled. She didn't visit that section very often herself, but she had found a few good books there for some essays she had to write.
"I'm sure the librarian could help you: Mr. Hailey. He knows where everything is in here." The problem was, Abby had no idea where he was. She hadn't seen him since she entered the library an hour earlier.

"That's the problem isn't it? The librarian never seems to be here," she said jokingly. She realized that he had good reason too. There were weird girls stalking him and Ellie would have done the same. "10 points to Hufflepuff," Professor Solis beamed. "Mind you, Ravenclaw is quite far ahead, in the points, aren't they?" She looked behind her shoulder in the direction in which Abigail pointed.
There she saw numerous books on Herbology. Well, that is a good place to start... she thought. Ellie nodded again at Abigail and smiled. "Thank you, I hope to see you in my class soon,"
She began to scan through the books and looked for anything to do with gardening or maintaining crops. Rare Plants.... rare plants... don't they have anything on common crops?
