Probably Not That Scary

[Edoardo Caito]

It was about half an hour before curfew, and it was slowly starting to become darker and darker. Edoardo looked up, spotting one or two stars in the sky; but it was still light enough for the forest not to seem too scary. He really didn't feel like getting in trouble today - more liked just a quiet night spent by wandering around the Grounds, not caring about the time and the fact that he was supposed to be inside by then just to distract himself from constantly thinking about his family back in Italy. He figured that going to the forest would help him think of something else for once, as he was feeling more and more homesick everyday. However, it was still before curfew so he had no reason to go inside the castle as of yet. Edoardo looked at it for a moment and then headed on towards the forbidden forest. He passed a few students that were heading back towards the school and few that were just sitting around and watching the sun set. The Hufflepuff tried to keep his thought of entering the forbidden forest to himself as he didn't want to draw attention to himself while he would enter the forest. Edoardo made it to the edge of the forest and stood dead in his tracks for a brief moment, he had just made his first step in when he thought he heard movement from behind him, or in the forest Edoardo couldn't quite tell, so he looked around to see if he could find the sound.

 

[Luciano Lopez-Capello]

Despite being sorted into Ravenclaw -- Luca's intellect probably chose to skip out today -- they weren't the smartest around when it came to instinct. That instinct meaning the born Mexican always tended to go on adventure, explore the things they did not know and especially the outdoors. No need to sit around inside the castle, if it wouldn't be for the food Luca would probably not shop up there at all except for classes they obligated them to follow.

Although the quick sunset quickly turned the normally beautiful Hogwarts Grounds in something much more darker, sinister perhaps even scary. Eyes started to help out less and Luca was pretty sure he wandered the same path a couple of times before he decided to go off road with in mind it could perhaps be a shortcut. Nevertheless, it only resulted in creating even more distance between the castle and the not-so-wise-Ravenclaw. "Why-" Noticing some figure walking towards the edge of the forest, Luca quickly chased and rushed after them. Causing branches to break under the shoes he wore -- Already regretting for not changing into his converse. "H-hey! No need to be scared- Just... Where are you going? Can I come with you? I'm a little lost- Yeah, silly me- It's just so freakish dark."
