Prompt 26 - Getting lost at a new school
Word count: 245
Really? Really? Just great, just what he needed. As if he wasn't enough of an outsider, he just had to get lost. All he had wanted to do was go to the library and see if it had any good books that he would be interested in. Instead, he was in a corridor with no defining features and nothing to suggest a way that he would be interested in taking. They should really put signposts on each corridor at this school, then he wouldn't be in this mess!
Remus Lupin sighed as he looked around for anything that might help him. He had been so excited when he had been accepted into Hogwarts—a werewolf attending school! Now he was slightly regretting it. He was an outsider here and far too frightened of anyone finding out his secret to try and make friends. The castle was a maze and he had managed to get thoroughly lost on the second day!
It was hopeless; he didn't know any spells that could help him, he hadn't even started learning magic yet! He shivered as the cold seeped into him, he had somehow managed to find his way into what must be one of the coldest areas in Hogwarts. Just great. Sighing once more, Remus pushed off the wall he had been leaning on and started walking again. Perhaps if he kept moving, he'd find something that looked familiar and find his way back to the Gryffindor tower.
