I had been walking around in the Hogwarts grounds for what had seemed like hours. My legs were aching, but at least my body had somehow blocked out the cool night air from entering my body anymore than it had earlier. My head was bent and my eyes were on the ground. I had let my feet take me where they wanted, the only thing my mind had to concentrate on was lifting my feet left, right, left, right and they were not heading toward the forest, although i had not yet realised where i was as i entered the edge of the forest. I was too wrapped up in my own thoughts and feelings to be aware of what was going on around me.
After a while my mind snapped back to reality and i looked around me, it was dark, but not dark enough to blind me from my surroundings. I could just about see the outlines of trees and bushes, i suddenly felt the cold night air around me and brought my cloak tighter around my shivering frame. The forest seemed strangely quiet, i suddenly felt scared, i was out in the forbidden forest alone, cold and partially blind with only my wand to protect me. I heard a twig snap behind me and spun around me, only to see the outlines of the tall trees that surrounded me. I felt my heartbeat quicken, I hoped that whatever was there in front of me was friendly, or at least human.

I squinted in the darkness. "Is that you Wes?" I ask then see him come closer. "Jeez you almost gave me a heart attack." I say sighing with relief and clutching my chest trying to get my heartbeat down to it's normal pace. "How come you're out here so late?" I ask.

"It's alright." I reply. "It's just a little scary in here." I say shivering at my surroudings.

"Homey?! When i realised where i was, i was getting myself ready to be killed." I laugh, but quickly stop as the sound bounces off the trees and echos in the darkness.

"I think it was the echo of my laugh." I say trying to hold in another laugh. "Are you scared Wes?" I tease.

"I'm sure." I say sarcastically. I heard a twig snap in the distance and grabbed hold of Wes' arm. "What was that." I say in a very small quiet scared voice.

"I hope so, but lets just get out of here before we're eaten alive or something." I say and laugh nervously.

I look at her wide eyed, "You mean to say that something out here could actually eat us?!"

"Yes! That is why the forest is forbidden, oh no Wes we're going to die aren't we?" I say starting to panic.

"Calm down," I tell her, "We're not gunna die."

I gulped. "At least I hope not."

I shut my eyes hoping that it would suddenly bring me back to the castle and clutched tighter to Wes' arm. I reopened them "Wes, which way do we go to get out." I whimper and look around wildly seeing nothing but the dark outlines of the tall trees.

"Yes but you were the last one in." I say waving my arms in the air in distress. I try to calm myself down, when i was scared i got hysterical "Lets go this way." I say uncertainly pointing in between two trees.

"Oh well if i die at least i won't be in the stupid situation i've got myself into." I mutter to myself as we make our way through the forest in the dark.

"No no, nothing that matters anyway." I say quickly. I scan my surroundings, it seemed to be getting lighter. Hopefully that was a good sign.

I let out a sigh of relief and carry on walking quickly towards the light. "Thank goodness, i'm too young to die." I laugh.
