Leaving the Gryffindor common room, Iblis walked down the castle corridor that led to the hospital wing. Imagining Madam Pomfrey's furious expression, she couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat from her brow. "She shouldn't figure out that I snuck out through the window... I just hope she's still asleep."
Meanwhile, a pair of vigilant dark eyes watched her from afar. Snape stood in the shadows, his expression unreadable. Having noticed earlier that Iblis was missing from the hospital wing, he had a hunch that she must have sneaked out to pull something.
"Good evening, Miss Grimm," Snape said, his voice deep and forceful, carrying an unquestionable authority. He slowly stepped out from the shadows, his sharp gaze sweeping over the bandages wrapped around Iblis. "It seems nothing can ever stop you from stumbling into trouble. First, swimming in the Black Lake on a winter night, and now sneaking out of the hospital wing to wander about."
