Pixie's eyes fluttered open, the darkness over took her as she layed there. She sat up slowly and pulled back the drapes on her bed, her eyes adjusting to the darkness in the Gryffindor tower. Around her sleeping bodies tossed, snored, and flinched in the darkness, she looked around and sighed. Somehow sleep was something she was lacking and well it wasn't fair, she had spent many nights awake since she arrived at Hogwarts castle. Pixie flung her covers back and grabbed her wand from her bedside table, she just needed some fresh air. She looked around and noticed the dark shadow of her small shoes and tiny jacket, throwing them both on she headed out the door.

Quietly Pixie exited the common room, somehow this seemed foolish. Being that at night people were most likely to get hurt in this castle, Pixie looked around before she ignited her wand tip as the light flooded the area around her she squinted. The light was a bit blinding, but she quickly got adjusted and headed for the North Tower which wasn't far but she still had to be careful.

Pixie walked slowly her head constantly checking the area around her, and watching out for anyone who was out to get her. Ever since Snape had taken over Hogwarts was no longer safe, and Pixie had taken up the habit of walking backwards, sideways, and forward to ensure her safety. Somehow people thought that because she was so small that it would be easy to take her out, they were wrong Pixie was feisty and she would fight till the end. Pixie's small feet carried her quickly as she found the enterance to the North Tower, she slipped inside and looked around.

From what she could see the tower was empty, ensuring she would be safe. It was safer to be out at night sometimes, due to the fact people slept. The most Pixie had to worry about at night was the vampires, but from what she knew they were out in the forest and no where near her. Pixie had remembered Dumbledore saying something way back when about how they had to avoid the forest at night and all that junk, she understood why now. Pixie sat down near the window, it was a clear night every so often a cloud would roll by and she would frown. Her eyes fixed on the sky she took in a deep breath and hoped that things would get better.

Pixie sat there the wind blew in her hair, as she looked at the deserted grounds below. From time to time she could have sworn she saw someone moving in the forest, but she just disreguarded it. Pixie rested her chin on the sil of the window and let the cool air hit her face, she closed her eyes and tried to sleep. Though it was a bad idea to sleep there, she would at least get some rest someone would wake her. With her eyes closed Pixie began to dream, though they were slow and had no signficance they still were welcomed due to the fact she was so tired.

A cool breeze picked up and Pixie opened her eyes, she was awake again and she wasn't too sure how long she had really slept. Pixie sat up slowly and sighed, it was sad she had to sleep on the floor of a tower. For somereason she couldn't sleep in the dorms, but in class and in a tower she could this angered Pixie. Pixie got to her feet and began to walk around, her feet had fallen asleep from sitting on them, she walked slowly and then fast her hands tucked in her pockets. It was kind of cold in the tower, she sighed and then shut the small window which was letting the cold air in.

Pixie sighed and sat down aganist the wall near the door, she wanted to hear anyone walking by so she could have time to hide. Her eyes shut again as she sat there, her mind was at peace till she heard someone walking. Pixie's eyes instantly shot open and she stood up, her wand was now pointed at the door. The original plan of hiding went out the window, she was ready to fight as always, she stood there for a good minute as the footsteps faded. Pixie sat away from the door in a dark part of the tower just in case.

She closed her eyes once again and let herself drift into sleep, she was liking this sleeping in bits. Though like every time she was awoken by something, someone was walking in the corrider outside of the the door. Pixie held her wand to her chest, she wasn't going to go down without a fight. Her breath picked up and she looked around her eyes were wild, since she was well freaked out. Pixie bit the inside of her cheek and waited in silence, someone was about to come in and possibly find her and well she didn't want to get hurt.

Pixie watched the light come in, from what she could see the person wasn't that tall but she still needed to becareful. She shifted and pressed herself to the wall as the light moved above her, Pixie watched the light die out and she held her breath. Pixie knew they hadn't left, but the possibly knew she was here hiding and coming to get her, yes she was parinoid and well it kept her safe. Her eyes watched the dark shadow stumble about and she creeped along the wall, towards the window. So whoever was in here with her was a female from what she could see, and wasn't smart enough to use her wand. She tried not to laugh as the girl stumbled about, it wasn't till she saw her fall and she heard Dammnit that she gripped her wand again.

She hated this, her eyes were already adjusted to the dim light and she kept her eyes fixed on the figure. For all she knew this person could know she's here and toying with her, Pixie watched as they rose to they're feet once more and she saw the face of the girl. Her eyes darted to the floor here she sat bathed in light her wand pressed to her chest, Pixie remembered the girl as Lily. She let out a sigh of relief she was a Ravenclaw and posed no harm, Pixie smiled slightly sitting there in her paranoid terror stricken state.

The silence between them was werid, you could tell that there was some kind of fear between them. Pixie's mouth fell open as Lily screamed, she fell over and covered her eyes with her hood, merlin to hell they were about to be caught and given lashes or worse. She bit her cheek again and the light from Lily's wand died out, darkness took over and silence was met with no footsteps. Pixie could feel her heart aganist her chest, and she was panting as if she ran a marathon. It was that fear of being caught that sent her into this fit, she looked from under her hood no feet were at the door and the hall was still silent. From beneath her hood she watched Lily stand up and brush herself off, Pixie stayed on the floor her tiny frame bundled into a ball.

Pixie was breathing heavily from her place on the floor, her eyes were mad with fear and she just peaked at Lily's feet. She heard her speak and her eyes shot up "It's...Alright" she trembled "You...." Pixie took in a deep breath "Scared me too, I didn't think anyone was up" she replied her eyes were fixed on Lily's face. Pixie was terrified at the moment, and wouldn't move she was glued to the spot, she knew little of the girl.

Pixie took a deep breath and kept her eyes on Lily "Possibly" she replied still refusing to move. Her body shook out of fear, and shit bit her lip again she hated this. Fear was something that gripped her daily now and she couldn't stand it, her eyes quickly darted away from Lily and then back to her face. Pixie blinked as Lily made a comment about the floor, and she sighed as Lily asked what she was doing out at night. "I couldn't sleep, I take it you felt the same way?" she asked sitting up slowly. Pixie was almost afraid to move due to the fact she was afraid of getting caught, she was now sitting with her back to the wall her eyes still held a look of fear to them.

She kept her arms around her tiny body, she didn't understand why fear still consumed her. Possibly because they had not been caught, she had doubts in her mind about the whole thing. Pixie knew that since Dumbledore had died having a sense of security was stupid let alone thinking you could get away with anything, she didn't try anymore she no longer spoke her mind. Pixie kept a low profile when it came to speaking, just not her style of dress and such. She sat there her eyes scanning the room for any sign of someone coming up.
