Cambrie squeaked softly, nearly tripping over her feet in her haste. She wasn't running away from something, she was just 'walking fast' and hoping not to be seen. She was really supposed to be in bed at this hour, but like usual, insomnia had decided to make it another sleepless night. So instead of just laying in bed, bored to tears, she was taking a walk. Yet she was lost. And she could've sworn that she had just seen a prefect before she had rushed away, a prefect who would surely yell at her for being out and about at this hour.
Hearing the patter of footsteps behind her, Cambrie froze. She glanced around the corridor, and spotted a narrow door to the right of her. Scrambling to the door, she opened it swiftly, and slipped inside, closing it softly behind her. Yet this door didn't lead into a room, she soon found out. It led to a staircase. A staircase which Cambrie backed onto in the darkness, and was soon sent tumbling down backwards. She finally hit the bottom, and lay for a minute on the cold stone floor, panting. She sat up gingerly, nervous that she had broken something. Yet to her great relief, she hadn't.
Now, to do something about the darkness. Fumbling in the pockets of her dinosaur print black pajama bottoms, she finally pulled out her wand, which she had been smart enough to bring with her. Noww.. what was that spell.. Cambrie fiddled with the wand for a moment, then sighed. She didn't know the light spell. This is what she got for falling asleep in Charms. She 'hmphed' softly, and tucked her knees to her chest, wrapping her arms around them, and wondered when it would be safe to leave. That is, if she could ever find the door in all the darkness.. ><;
