Except she definitely wasn’t following school rules today because she had misplaced her tie. Again, NOT HER FAULT. It just HAPPENED to her. Angel. See?

And she would’ve been fine too because today she didn’t have DADA or Divinations, so she just had to slide by the rest of her Professors and everything would be fine and no one would be the wiser. Perfect plan.

Only, as she began making her way down the corridor, she saw him. Another one of the Headmaster’s minions. First of all, what a knucklehead. Second of all, SHOOT. So Zoryn did the only thing she could think and bolted inside the Room of Runes when he was facing the other way. A) The only reason why she would ever be caught dead in this place. And B) The only reason why she’d willingly lock herself in a room with Sylvie Norcotte.

Did I say lock? Oh yes, that’s because she locked the door behind her, “Colloportus!”

Turning around so that her back was facing the door, she took one look at who her company was and almost wished she’d gotten stuck with Rafferty instead. GREAT. How wonderful was her luck today!!! THE BEST. HA. Still, she wore a smile (despite it being an irritated one). “Don't look now. But Ainsworth is outside.”

Did she see the issue? Good.
Did Rafferty become aware of the rushing figure that pass him? Yes. Was Rafferty able to prevent the door from locking? No. What he did succeed in doing was banging his nose against it. There was a loud grunt of pain and his nose was automatically clutched. An examination of his hand proved that there was no blood which meant that it was not broken. Still Rafferty was angry. How was it that Hogwartians always managed to get on his VERY.LAST.NERVE? A turn of the knob revealed that the door was locked.

“Alohomora.’’ The door sprang open. “That's Professor Ainsworth. I suggest that both of you address me using my designation. You.’’ One medium sized finger pointed to the Gryffindor that had rushed passed him. “Detention for not showing the proper respect. Stewart’s Entertainment Room tomorrow evening at seven. Be late and I will extend your detention.’
