Chapter 9

Eliza scurried down the corridors, walking quietly past the moonlit windows towards her destination.

Well, if you could call it a destination. She really had no idea where she was going. A few nights before, when she and her friends had been planning their little nighttime fun, they ran out of ideas on who to prank next. But since they all wanted a shot at this, they drew sticks. And of course it just so happened that she drew the shortest one, making it so she was the one who had to find a completely random person in the castle to prank. Just. Her. Luck.

Though in a way, Eliza thought, it would be more challenging; possibly having to improvise and change her original plans around, which could make it more fun. She let out a chuckle. Either way, whoever was her victim would be in for a nasty surprise come morning.

She was passing a small corridor when she saw movement out of the corner of her eye. Thinking it was a guard, or someone else less than pleasant to meet at this time of night, she quickly hid behind a large suit of armor that stood at the corner of the main hall and the side passageway; being as careful as possible to not knock it over.

Curious as to who was out this late at night besides herself she peered around the bend. To her astonishment she saw not a bulky nightwatchman, but a slim figure standing in front of a doorway. Squinting her eyes in the darkness Eliza saw that the figure was, in fact, a young woman in a dark nightgown, knocking softly on the door in front of her.

The prankster recognized the girl as a young noblewoman from somewhere up north. What was the fiefs name? Rockyroad? No that was not it. Crème Brulee? No not that. Glastonberry! Yes that is it! Glastonberry.

Her thoughts were interrupted (why is it that thoughts are always interrupted she wondered) when the door to the room was opened by a young man with pale blond hair that was so white it could be easily seen even in the dark corridor.

Eliza could barely contain a giggle as the boy wrapped his arm seductively around the girl's waste and led her inside his room. The door was hastily pulled shut soon after and Eliza decided she should move on.

She made a mental note to tell her friends of what she just saw and subtly suggest spreading rumors of the Glastonberry girl later.

Noting that the halls were, once again, abandoned she got out from behind the old suit of armor and began searching the halls for where her victim (who she still didn't know who it would be) was sleeping restfully.
