Harper felt stupid.

Sure, she'd technically done her fair share of dumb things in the past. Most notably, she'd once tried to backflip off a set of swings and ended up breaking her arm. However those daredevil stunts hadn't seemed like bad ideas in the moment. But this? This felt ridiculous, and it wasn't even remotely dangerous.

Harper continued to levitate her quill, wiggling it back and forth in front of the statue's nose as she kept an eye out for any passersby. She'd heard a rumor that the creepy statue on the sixth floor concealed a secret passageway, and the only way to get to it was to make the statue sneeze. Naturally she had to investigate. She'd already explored much of the grounds surrounding the castle, but for the most part, the castle itself remained a mystery.

But she'd been at this for a couple of minutes, and the statue hadn't so much as flinched. Harper was starting to wonder whether the rumor was actually a prank, an attempt to see which of the younger students were gullible enough to fall for it. Thankfully so far she'd managed to stop her antics as soon as someone else appeared in the corridor. Yet she knew that if this statue didn't move soon, it would only be a matter of time before someone saw her.
