It had been an uneventful day for Chanelle, sitting alone in the Gryffindor Common Room struggling on that Potions essay. She was slowly yet surely catching up with her enormous stack of homework, as the week was slowly drawing to an end. Oh how she longed for the weekend, wasting the day away in Hogsmeade, checking out the latest products at Zonko's Joke Shop or perhaps simply winding down the afternoon with a nice warm butterbeer.
Smiling at the thought, Chanelle wrapped her robes tighter around herself as she set off across the dark and deserted grounds of Hogwarts. It was relatively late... one o'clock in the morning. If she was busted wandering the grounds at this time of the night, she'd be dead for sure... but that wasnt going to happen in a hurry, as long as she paid close attention to her surroundings.
Picking up pace as the Forbidden Forest lay looming ahead, Elle slowly pulled her wand out of her robes, raising it slightly. "Alohamora", she muttered, the light immediately emerging from the tip of her wand, brightening the path ahead of her. It probably wasnt the smartest idea, heading into the forest unaccompanied, so late at night. But Chanelle was up for adventure, an adrenaline rush just waiting to burst out inside of her. Biting her lip gently, she pushed past a mass of branches and walked deeper into the forest in search for excitement.

Anna stood outside in the shadows of the castle. She was waiting for the perfect time to sneka back inside when she happened to see someone come out of the castle. Anna leaned against the castle walls, so the student wouldn't see her.
Anna stayed where she was, watching the girl walk across the grounds. She smiled to herself when she saw her heading for the forest. Anna quitely set off following the girl towards the forest.
Once the girl entered the forest, Anna slowed her pace, looked around to make sure no one was following and then she silently entered the forest. Staying soem distance behind hte girl, Anna saw the light form her wand up ahead of her. Grinning to herself, Anna decided to see if the girl frightened easily. She looks at the ground and sees a bunch of fallen branches from the trees. Anna steps down on them, makign a crunching sound that echoed through the forest.

Stepping deeper into the darkness, Chanelle raised her wand a little higher and peered straight ahead. Even with the rather bright light emerging from the tip of her wand, the image ahead was still that of pure darkness. No, she hadn't picked the best time to come into the forest. Not a single wolf was howling, nor could the unknown beast's footsteps be heard lurking close by. Silence was the most deadliest for some reason, it always promised bad outcomes in the end.
Lowering her wand a little, a small look of disappointment spread across the young Gryffindors face. She wasnt going to stumble across anyone or anything tonight, it seemed as though everyone lay tucked in bed, like any normal person. Perhaps she'd just go back to the castle, get some sleep then enjoy the weekend that was ahead of her. Perhaps Lily would go shopping with her in Hogsmeade.
Nodding her head and smiling slightly to herself, Chanelle was just about ready to walk back to the castle when a loud crunching noise left her frozen to the ground. What was that? There was nobody else in the forest, it seemed, from her wondering around and she was almost definite that nobody had followed her in here. Heart pounding against her chest, Chanelle slowly turned around, raising her wand high above her head again. "Who's there?" she called out, peering into the darkness. "Come out, whoever you are! Dont think you're going to scare me!' she shouted once again, her voice bold and confident.

After Anna snapped the sticks, she stopped and didn't move. She heard the girl's voice and was slightly disappointed there was no fear in it. Maybe the girl was pretending to be brave, it didnt' matter to Anna really. Anna then moved again, snapping more sticks as she moved to cirlce the girl wanting ot come out infront of her.
This time Anna moved quickly, the sound of the snapping sticks echoing as she moved. Anna finally stood infront of hte the girl, still hiding from her view and watched her for a minute. Anna pulls up the hood of her cloak, pulling her wand out and tucking it in her sleeve, Anna stepped out and looked at the girl. "Who are you yelling to?" She asked the girl

Still staring into the darkness, waiting for an answer, any sign of movement or life coming from the forest, Chanelle took a small step closer to the sound of the disruption. She knew it wasnt wise to be shouting out in the middle of a dangerous place such as the Forbidden Forest, no was it any better to go searching for the source of the echoing sound. But she had come out here for an adventure and she was surely going to get one - no matter what.
Biting down on her lip slightly, Chanelle jumped a little as the sound of the snapping twigs began moving, closer and closer to where she was standing. Watching as so suddenly, a girl appeared before her, Chanelle eyed the other party curiously. She had never seen this girl before, but she didnt appear too friendly. "Was it you? That was causing the noise?" she asked, sounding more confident than she felt. She tried to maintain a bold image for herself, though that was shattered at times. "Who are you? What do you want?" she asked, raising the beam of light from her wand into the girls face.

Anna stood there, trying not to laugh as the girl looked at Anna. She gave the girl an innocent look "Now why would I be causing that noise? I was just on my way back to the castle." Anna squinted her eyes a bit when the girl raised her wand so the light was in her face. "Well aren't you the social one." She said with a small laugh "I'm Anna Cross. And who might you be? Besides being the girl that is trying to blind me." She said to her.
Anna then steps to the side so the light form the wand wasn't in her face anymore. She could now see the girl standing there better "Why are you out here wandering the forest?"

((ooc: Anna, <3! Seeing as I'm changing Chanelle to a first year and all, I was hoping to totally restart her. Like, she'll develop somehow into the character she is at the present. So wanna make a new thread together? -smiles sweetly-))
