Getting Lost For The Fun Of It

[Rainne Fall]

Rainne walked to the end of a corridor that continued to her left and to her right. She turned right and found that it continued by torchlight. Her pale face lit up with a grin, red eyes twinkling, as she tossed her books in a corner. She pulled her robes over her head, revealing a white blouse and black and green plaid skirt, black socks and shoes. Said shoes she kicked off and knocked over to her things in the corner. Quickly, she magicked her white hair back in a simple plait and took a deep breath. She hadn't had a good run in a while, and she couldn't be outside too often, due to her fragile skin. Rai broke into a run, going as fast as she could, socked feet pounding on the stone floor. She wouldn't stop, not when it felt this good.

After about two minutes of running, the long dark corridor ended and turned to the left. Thinking the corridor must somehow wind around the whole school, she set off again, breath still miraculously even. She kept her wand tucked safely in her beltloop. As Rai pushed foreward, she reWizarded doing something similar to this when she was eight. Only then, Larad, the family's albino hawk, was flying beside her. In a way, she could feel him gliding there, going faster and never stopping. So she went faster, and claimed never to stop.

Ten minutes later, Rainne found herself panting. She stopped abruptly, nearly making herself fall foreward, and stumbled to the cool stone wall. Her hair was sticking to her neck, and her feet were sore from repetatively hitting the hard floors. She sank slowly to the floor, legs folded beside her, and felt endorphins racing to calm her.
