Art grinned to herself as she leaned forward over the bank to poke at the little swimmers in the reeds. The Lake was the closest she could get to wildlife these days (with the exception of Care of Magical Creatures), as her adventures into the forest had been cut short. Artemis was forbidden to go to the Forbidden Forest. Of course that was a given for any student, but she felt especially barred by her punishment for that escape attempt not two weeks ago. No ifs, ands or buts.
She was reminded of Sam when she gazed out over the crystalline waters. It was ripe news through the first, second and third years. One boy had fallen dreadfully ill and was taken to the Hospital Wing over night. She was stricken by the news as she recognised poor Sam as the victim. Of all people, why him?
Art turned her attention back to the little rocky pool that she was hovering over and grinned as a teeny tiny squid raced past her fingers. Had a bit of fun, had you? she thought at the giant squid, somewhere out there in the murky depths. But as her concentration was lost, so too was her balance. With a squeak, Artemis tumbled into the water with a mighty splash for someone so small. Half a minute later she surfaced, spluttering.
Oh, bugger it! cried Art, with her little green dress fanning out all around her.
