[Rosaliz Hernandez G6]

It was pitch black in the bedroom as Rosaliz layed wide-awake. She turned her head and looked out the window not to far from her bed Rosaliz was getting impatient, as the time came around that she should get up. She sat up and shook the sleep from her head, slowly slipping her blanket off her body, putting on her shoes and socks she went to the foot of her bed. Then opening her chest she went to the bottom and found her wand. With a small flick the blankets on her bed rose as they would if someone was sleeping under them. Then kneeling down by the window Rosaliz watched a person outside the window busily walking around. Standing up, Rosaliz turned and looked at the clock on the wall, it was nearly midnight Turning back towards the door, into the common room and then snuck out of the passageway.

Rosaliz’s footsteps echoed on stone as she walked slightly down the abandoned corridor. Or did they? She stopped, and thought she heard footsteps continuing in front of her, for longer than an echo ought to last. She strained her eyes, to what was in front of her, but saw no one in the dim light from her wand. Rosaliz began walking again, and heard the same indistinct sound of footfalls. She had the creepy feeling that she was not listening to an echo. She stopped again and listened. She knew it wasn’t ms. Norris and they weren't Filch's, his footsteps where more like someone dragging their feet. She continued to walk. Not knowing where she was going. She couldn’t blame herself; nobody wouldn’t be able to see in the mask of darkness. She continued to walk until she bumped into something hard. She knew it wasn’t a wall but what was it? Pulling herself up quickly from the ground she took out her wand from her pocket. SHe was always prepared for anything.

Timothy couldn't get to sleep and he didn't know why. He was in bed for a hour but couldn't sleep so he walked down to the common room and sat by the fire trying to get to sleep there but still no luck and the house elves were waiting for him to leave so they could clean with no one seeing them. He could tell they were there because he could hear really tiny footsteps every on and then. Finally he gave up on sleeping and walked back up to his dormitory to get into his trunk. He opened it and pulled out his wand and put it in his pocket then walked out of the common room, waking up the fat lady as he did so. He walked down the stairs and made it to the castle exit.

He must have gotten lucky Mr. Finch hadn't locked the door yet. He slowly pushed the door open trying not to make much noise, after he made it out he slowly closed it behind him. He looked around and the moon was out and it wasn't that cloudy. He walked out to the lake; it was only eleven at night he guess when he reached the lake. When he reached the lake he sat down and watched the moons reflection on the lake. If he had a camera he probably would have taken a picture but he didn’t have one with him. He smiled thinking about how it would make a great post card. He sat lied down on the grass and looked up at the sky looking at all the stars. His eye lids were finally getting heavy till something in the lake made a noise and he woke up.

He got up and started walking quickly back into the castle hoping that Finch didn’t lock the door while it was out he tried to open it slowly and it didn’t open. “O great.” He whispered to himself. Giving the door one last tug it opened, he felt so relieved. He started walking back up to the common room. On his way to the common room it sounded like someone was walking somewhere in the same corridor. The echoes in the footsteps just didn’t seem to match. But he kept walking none the less hoping it was Finch or that darn cat of his. He started to walk a bit faster then the footsteps were closer and when he did he hit something. “O great just what I needed.” He thought to himself. He could already tell it wasn’t finch, he would be yelling by now. “Umm hello there… sorry to run into you who ever you are.” He pulled out his wand. “Lumos.” He said and the corridor lit up and he could see it was only another student. “O I’m so sorry are you ok?” He said holding a hand down to help her up.

( OOC: Sorry if its a little long. ;D )
