Amanda was bored out of her mind. She wondered what interesting things were going to happen. She thought she heard a noise by the forest and she thought she was going crazy so she paid no attention. She continued being bored until she heard the noise again. "This is going to be one interesting night," she said to herself. She walked towards the noise coming from inside the forbidden forest. She walked for a long time in the forest until the noise just stopped right then and there. "Oh it will come back and I then can get out of here," she said softly to herself. She stayed in that spot for a while but she didn't hear the noise again. "Oh man I think I'm lost" she said to herself.
James made his way across the grounds and into the forbidden forest. He gazed around his surrounding and made his way to a clearing. Sitting down in the middle, he set his wand beside him and stared upward. His head was hurting and he wasn't sure what he had done earlier. He heard footsteps near by but didn't bother to get up.
All of a sudden Tigress ran into the forest, excited for some reason that she couldn't quite figure out. Stopping abruptly, She crouched down, her breathing short and excited. She took a deep breath and quieted it for a moment, looking around happily. "Well," She mumbled quietly to herself, here we go." She jumped up, catching a tree limb and swung up.
Then Amanda walked around a little trying to see if she recognized anything around her in which she didn't. She heard something around her but it wasn't the noise from before. It sounded like footsteps. It was about a couple feet away. She followed the footsteps and guess who she found? James Potter, the least person she wanted to find her. She said "So James. What are you doing out here?" she asked smoothly. He didn't answer.
Next, Tigress tilted her head slightly. "Hmm, voices, well I'd better go further away then," She said quietly, and then she looked down at her school robes and wrinkled her nose. "But never in these." She tapped her robes lightly with her wand, changing them into blue jeans and a tight emerald green t-shirt. "That's better." She said to herself, hopping down from the tree. She stepped lightly onto a clear patch on the floor, then gathered herself and ran soundlessly in the direction opposite the voices.
Amanda lay down because James left when she turned around and she didn't bother following him. She looked up at the sky, which was a little too sunny and bright. She wondered when she was getting home when she heard the noise again. "What whose there?" she said and shot straight up when she heard it. She got up and started walking towards the sound and got herself even more lost. She felt something squishy at the bottom of her shoe and looked down at the mud she stepped in. She looked farther up and saw something that spelled terror. Someone drew the dark mark in the mud with possibly a stick or something. She gaped at it for a long time. She started shaking her head, "No this can't be," she said. She walked backwards and bumped in to something. She didn't want to turn around because she knew it wasn't a tree.
The new girl Leigh walked slowly into the forest humming. She didn't care if anyone could hear her. She had been here many times before and knew most of the creatures including some you would prefer not to befriend, she smiled and made sure her owls were still there and kept walking when she found an old friend of hers, "Good morning Leigh!" shouted the little goblin as it hugged her leg. "Nice to see you too again Jease. Would you accompany me through the forest for a walk?" she asked crouching down to his height. "Sure!" it happily said and they continued to walk.
Back in the other part of the forest, Tigress slid to a stop and whipped around. "Is that Amanda?" she asked quietly. "She sounds scared..." She shook her head and jumped into a tree again. "I'll wait for a little while" She said quietly and settled into the tree the wait.
Amanda stood frozen for a very long time hoping it would just walk away, which it didn't. "Who... who are you? What do you want?" she asked very, very scared. The thing didn't say anything and no sound came from it. "I said who are you?" she asked a little more bravely. Still nothing.
Tigress frowned as she heard Amanda's voice again, slipping off of the tree; she began slinking towards the sound of her terrified voice. She was soon close enough so that she could make out words, but couldn't yet see her.
Amanda thought that since it didn't make sound that it wasn't who she thought it was. So she walked a little forward and turned around to see who it was. This was the most gruesome thing she has ever seen. She screamed and fainted right then and there.
