"Oh great. It's raining..." Mumbled a very tired Sky. She stood on the front steps of the castle, one rather large book held snuggly to her right side while her wand was in her left hand and her messenger bag hanging over her shoulder. She certainly wasn't dressed for this sort of weather, wearing a simple black tank top and red shorts that said Gryffindor on the leg with a pair of black converse. She yawned. She had been awake most of the night studying for her different classes. And thats what she had come outside for. She looked up at the sky, then shrugged. So what if she got wet?
Sky slowly stepped off of the steps and looked for a tree around the grounds that she could sit in. Within minutes, she came across a beautiful oak tree, perfect for her to sit in. She climbed up several feet and laid back against the trunk, hanging her bag on a branch near her head and her wand in one of its pockets. She opened the book to the first page. History of Magic: A Journey To The Past. said the title. "Ugh..." Sky moaned. She hated this subject with a fiery passion. Was The Great Goblin Invasion really that important? She rubber her eyes and yawned before turning the page. Sky began to read but found the subject rather dull.
Amontiago DeMenaco, a wizard born in a small home in Italy was a great part of The Great Goblin Invasion of seven-hundred-and-two. He was known as a traitor to the Goblins, having given them his word to be a spy, when instead he was a spy for the Ministry of Magic in Italy. He was brutally murdered by a Goblin Leader whose name had not yet been specified.
Sky sighed. So..boring.... She thought as She yawned. I can't sleep now. Not with so many tests' coming up.
((Can you say...Unusually long post for Sky? :3))
Leah was jogging in her normal work out clothes. Red shorts that said Gryffindor in gold on the butt and a black t-shirt with her quidditch number on the back. Her shorts were rolled a few times and her hair was in a high ponytail. She was soaked through, but loved it. She was jogging through the forest when she noticed Sky. Leah sped up and launched herself into the tree.
*Hey Sky!* Leah said as she settled in next to Sky. *What are you working on?*
Sky nearly jumped, being startled by Leah. She looked at her. "Oh just studying for some tests then onto some intense stuff." She said, closing the book.
*Well won't your books get wet?* Leah asked, moving her dripping hair so as to not get Sky wet. She read the cover of the book and said, *Wow that is intense.*
Sky shrugged. "If they get wet, they'll dry." She looked at her book. "Oh..this isn't the intense stuff." She pulled a book out of her bag, just enough to show the cover. "I'm going to start training to be an animagus."
*Fun... I didn't know you could train to be one... that's cool.* Leah said. *I can help you practice if you'd like.*
"There is a way, but it takes years. So I have to start somewhere." Sky said and smiled. "I appreciate the offer, but I don't even know where to begin. I suppose I have to read this book before anything."
*OK, well if you need anything, you know where to find me!* Leah said.
"Thanks!" Sky said to her. She took out a piece of parchment and a quill and scribbled something on it before rolling it up. "Can you give this to Jessie?" She asked, handing it to her. It didn't say much. It was just asking if Jessie wanted to hang out sometime.
*Sure no problem!* Leah said as she hoped out of the tree. She stretched really quick before continuing her run.
