Time for bed was almost upon them as Opal worked on her studies. She had an essay due the next morning and she was going through what she hoped was her final draft. Always wanting to make sure she didn't miss something. Spelling mistakes alone were embarrassing enough. Suddenly, it felt rather cold. Cold enough for it to be odd this time of year.

Looking up, she watched as the candlelight in the room went out one by one. A puff of her own breath was the last thing she could see clearly before the light was completely gone. Then each Ravenclaw that hadn't already headed off to bed heard the sound. The mischievous laughter of Peeves. Some began to panic. Opal sighed softly at the foolish behavior that the spirit-like being was prone to. "Goodness." She mumbled softly. "It's alright everyone, just another Peeves prank. Let's get some light back into this room." If she could just find her wand.
