She looked down at the envelope clutched in her hand, a large E written in very elegant letters. She still hadn't opened the envelope since she left the registration office. It all pretty much seemed like a dream to her. Her mind was weary from days without sleep and what she ached for now was a nice long rest in a warm bed.
With her sharpened claw she scratched open the envelope slowly and looked at the paper inside, scrawled with all her class assignments and instructions for each one. She reached in and plucked out the key, holding it between her fingers, feeling the cold metal against her skin. It made her shiver, or was it just the large corridor she was standing in that was making her cold?
She had taken an exceptionally long time to reach the Women's Dormitory as she had stopped a few times to eye the beautiful tapestries or paintings on walls or feel a soft breeze in the courtyard. She had enjoyed the trip over here, although the campus, or...grounds or whatever you would call this area seemed to be empty and lifeless.
Christine tucked the map of the grounds into her pocket of her jacket as well as the envelope she had just opened and looked down at the handle of the door she was standing in front of, the same elegant "E" inscribed on the door as was on the envelope.
"Here goes nothing. Wish me luck Martha." She silently whispered to herself as she slid the key into the lock on the door, her ears twitching underneath her beanie as the latch inside clicked unlocking the door and opening itself for her. As she stood in the hallway, her back-pack still over her shoulder she eyed her way around the room. Stone floors with a large elegant carpet covering them, the only light came through a large window, framed with satin crimson curtains overlooking the courtyard. It was furnished with a large four post canopy bed with it's own satin crimson sheets and there seemed to be various items around the room used for decoration. Vases', lamps, even a statue or two. A very large mirror overlooked a small dresser and a night-stand stood next to the bed. As Christine's eyes continued to scan the room she noticed a large chandelier hanging from the middle of the room and a light switch right next to the door.
"Whoa."
Her bag slid off her shoulders and with a soft thud hit the floor. She was in awe. She was expecting....well she wasn't sure what she was expecting but this...this left her speechless. She thought it was strange at first that a school would be in a castle or that a school that was in a castle would want HER as a student. Her mind went over these small details over and over and over again on the trip here, but eventually she became to drained to even care. Her questions would still have to wait as she felt her tail start to twitch underneath her baggy sweat pants, aching and dying to relax in the bed.
She looked around the hallway and noticed that the corridor was silent and still. She picked up her bag off of the floor and tossed it just inside the room, shutting and locking the door behind her. As soon as the latch clicked on the door she threw off her beanie and kicked off her sweatpants, letting her ears and tail breathe freely. She stretched and twisted and flexed her muscles, her tail swishing back and forth and her ears twitching excitedly to be out of the confinement of the hat. Christine reached her fingers through her hair, scratching her scalp and fluffing it up a bit, giving herself a bit of a scratch with her claws as she purred, grinning, enjoying the feeling of being alone and free to be herself.
She climbed into the bed, unzipping her jacket and tossed it on the floor but first taking the map and envelope out of the pocket and setting it on the nightstand next to the bed. She would definitely like to find out why she was here...but it would have to wait. Before she knew it, her eyes began to close and her body began to sink into the bed, the satin sheets feeling so good against her skin it made her tingle and purr louder. Her claws softly dug into the sheets, showing her comfort and relaxation as she took a long and very much needed nap.
