Internally, Hyperion wanted to scream. He hated frogs. Really hated frogs. But he was an auror, and he knew that they at least wouldn't hurt him - no matter what his ranidaphobia told him - so he continued up the stairs, very much aware that they weren't being particularly stealthy. He made it up to the platform and sighed with audible relief as the frogs melted away. Quickly, he grabbed the flag and turned to look at the stairs. He froze for a second, staring at the tall sentinel-like guardians that were currently blocking his way. "Fuck me," he groaned.
