Lilith, a usually bright and cheery rainbow, felt more like a dark, droopy raincloud. Her grand Hogwarts adventure had become survival of the fittest. She was fit--physically, but mentally...she hasn’t ever been challenged in this manner before. It felt like she had to do whatever it took to protect her family more than herself. Maybe it was paranoia, but she didn’t doubt it. What if Rosier sent dark wizards to her home? No. She had to do whatever it takes to keep her family safe.

It was EXHAUSTING.

Especially during this time of the month. Lilith was sad and irritable and just wanted hugs. She didn’t have anyone here for hugs, though. So she kept herself distracted by aimlessly walking around, and this is how she landed by the gates.

Wouldn’t it be great if she could just open the gates and leave?

Taking her wand out, Lilith used the levitation charm and picked up a great, big brown leaf up from the path, and slowly maneuvered it to the gates.

ZAP!
