Sinistra was leaning against the tower wall, standing out on the stone veranda. She stared up into the night sky as continuous shooting stars were reflected in her bright eyes. Classes were over so she could finally have some peace for herself. She puled out her wand and conjured up a chair underneath her. She sat down slowly, the wall was low enough for her to lean her chin on top of it. The wall was a very dangerous hight seeing as she was only a grand measure of 4 '11. Not a very smart construction job obviously.
Her small frame had begun to shiver as she out there, not because of the cold. She was nervous, extremely jumpy. She was warned a few nights earlier about their, well, her arrival. She used the excuse of rules to keep her safe. She realized that morning though that the only rule she followed was her own. So, here she was, all alone out in her tower, unable to fall asleep.
Something was heard behind her and she nearly screamed, but she soon saw that it was only a mouse. They've got me so scared I'm jumping at anything. She's just a child, what can she possibly do to harm me. But even as she tried to calm herself down with these thoughts an owl fluttered passed the window and she let out a small shriek.
She pulled her body together tightly and tilted her head down, breathing deeply. She looked up to the door and watched as the shadow in the door frame moved closer and closer.
"What part of off-limits do you not understand, Miss?"
Remember, no access to the tower after school hours.
