Anna stepped outside of the castle. It was about four or five in the morning, just before dawn and she was freezing. She didn't exactly realized how cold it was when she decided to go for a walk this early. All she had on was a pair of jeans, sneakers, and a t-shirt. She shivered as she walked towards the lake.
Once Anna reached the lake, she had goosebumps all over her body and her teeth were chattering, but that didn't stop her from staying outside. Anna sat down on the edge of the lake, but making sure that her feet stayed dry. Why am I out here? she asked herself with a slight smile.
Anna layed back on the hard, frost covered ground. She looked up at the grey sky, and saw the full moon hovering above her head, but millions of miles higher. She could see the childhood, "man in the moon" and smiled once again. The cold had passed over her, and although her lips were almost blue she was numb to the cold.
There was something coming towards her in the sky. Something that looked almost invisible until it got closer. Anna's heart started to beat faster and faster. But as soon as the unidentified creature came close enough, she realized that it was only her owl, Ningo. He had come from the owlery most likely and landed cleanly on her stomach. She stroked him gently, "Hey you. I haven't seen you in a while." she told him and closed her eyes as she continued to stroke him.

"That is the closest color of blue your going to get."Said Sen who had just spotted the girl. "Aren't you cold?"She asked looking at the owl smiling she loved animals. Sen sat down a bit away from the girl and the owl her blue eyes looked over to the other side of the lake her short brown hair blowing in the slight breeze and the jacket her Friend lend her over her cold body.

That is the closest color of blue your going to get. Anna heard a somewhat familiar voice say. Anna looked over to see a girl sitting there that she had seen in the common room a few times. Sen, was her name... for she heard people calling her that. "Oh, hey!" Anna stated.
A question was thrown at her, Aren't you cold? "Oh, well... I was a few minutes ago. But now, I'm just too numb to feel how freezing it actually is," Anna informed her with a smile. "By the way, I'm Anna. Anna Tomlin," she finished. Anna stroked Ningo some more and asked, "Do you want to pet him?" She pulled Ningo onto her arm so he was perched there and she sat up. Anna held her arm out to Sen so she would be able to pet him.
Anna noticed the goosebumps on her arms, but she didn't feel them. Also, a low fog drifted over the lake, and just above the grass, wet from the morning dew, but almost frozen over with frost. She smiled at the sight of the beautiful autumn morning. Anna looked at her bright, square watch, and according to it, the time was 4:21. She whistled lowly for she thought it was later than that when she woke up. Her focus was brought back up to Sen as she smiled and stroked Ningo's warm head. Ningo ruffled his feathers a few times and then allowed the girls to stroke him again.

Anna smiled, "I'm sure your owl is still cute... most are," she told her,, although she was quite sure she already knew that. She looked at her arms as Sen made a comment on the cold. "Yeah.. I don't think it's cold enough to get frost bite, so I'm probably good with just a t-shirt on," she said hopefully and continued to stroke Ningo's fluffy warm feathers.
Anna smiled, "So, you're in Gryffindor... I remember seeing you a few times in the common room," Anna informed her. "I'd say I don't know that many people in Gryffindor, how about you?" she asked curiously.

Anna smiled and thought about her closest friends. Rezna, Tod, Jordan,Larissa... One hufflepuff and two slytherins and one ravenclaw. "Yeah, my closer friends aren't in my houses, but I do know some people in my own house..." Anna replied with a smile, "And know I know you!" she added with her green eyes sparkling in the newly rising sun.
"Oooh! Do you want to go up to the Astronomy Tower and watch the sunrise?" she asked with a hopeful tone in her voice. She never got to see the sun rise for at home she was a very late sleeper. Anna continued to stroke Ningo lightly until he ruffled his feathers roughly and took flight up towards the Owlery.

Sen smiled as the sun could barley be seen but it was starting to get brighter. "Sure!"She had hardly ever been up there but once and she never got to see a sunset or sunrise she was usually out all night and took long naps before she would set out so she could get sleep. "I wonder if we could make it in time though.."She said standing up waiting for Anna so they could go.
