For the first time in a few days, the weather was decent outside. It seemed like it had been raining and bitterly cold for days. So, even though it was muddy outside, she had woken up to go on a dawn run with Edmund. Apparently, though, Ed's dawn was earlier than Sutton's because he hadn't been in the common room. Since she was already up, she set out on her own.

Nearing the Whomping Willow, she smiled slightly. It seemed someone had been taunting the tree in the rain because it was as though the tree was going out of a giant muddy puddle in the middle of the grounds. Changing her path slightly, she ran a little closer to the tree, and she spotted Edmund. A mischievous smile appeared on her face, and she sped up to catch up to him from behind. As soon as she was close enough, she grabbed him and attempted to throw him into the giant mud puddle.
