She'd just have to read about it again tonight. The next part of the activity seemed strange, but at least there wouldn't be any real bubaks involved. And thanks to the absence of magic, she wouldn't have to attempt to produce a patronus charm. Avalon wouldn't even know where to begin if she had to do that.
Glancing, down at her flashlight, she saw the number 9. So she'd be a wanderer. Avalon held the flashlight in hand, flicking it off for now, as she made her way into the fake corn.

Pretty soon, she saw a wanderer coming along. Isla squinted her eyes in the darkness of the room, but she still couldn't make out who the wanderer was. Well, she saw the girl's face, but she couldn't quite put a name with a face for some reason. Must be a new kid or something.
Regardless, she was a bubak, and the new kid was a wanderer, and that meant Isla needed to attack her. When she came closer, Isla jumped out of her hiding place. She pretended to attack like a real bubak would, but what she was actually doing was showing all her teeth and making an attempt to tap Avalon on the back. She didn't know what else to do to make herself seem like a real bubak, but there was growling and teeth-showing and the whole nine yards.
TAKE THAT, WANDERER!
Aboli though bubaks sounded cool. Both the SOUND of the name and the way they were. Cool cool cool.
"Maybe in my next life I can be a bubak and eat people's souls." She muttered under her breath, flickering her flashlight on and off below her chin. She chilled THAT out, though, because it might burn out her flashlight, and she didn't need Headmaster Trent to get mad at her for something so silly. Her flashlight had a neat ole' 25 on it, and so she was a wanderer. She began creeping around, flashes of light here and there penetrating through the darkness as her classmates attempted to combat the bubaks!
THIS WAS FUN.
Aboli crept along, hearing motions nearby...when...she...TOUCHED something with her foot, squeaked, and heard Isla's roar - only instead of flashing the flashlight in
ISLA'S FACE - she accidentally expecto-patronum'd a beam of light into
AVALON'S FACE.
Did this mean they were both dead? Soulless? WHAT?
