Oh? A notice? Noah quickened his pace as he saw the red paper stuck on the door and read the professor's instructions. It did raise questions and perhaps bits of trust issues here and there, but surprisingly, the normalcy (or as normal as it could get because this was Hogwarts) of the school also brought back his confidence. Talk about growing up, finally.
When it was his turn, Noah squared his shoulders and just went for the door. He'd decided not to think about the room devoid of light and just go straight in without thinking of the obstacles. He'd have to just push and shove the things in front of him and be done with it. But, of course, the Professor didn't mean the obstacle to be easy. It was apparent that another student who went in before him had the same idea, because soon enough, a foam wedge landed on his face, hitting his left eye. "Ow!" Noah gasped at the sudden sharp sensation, putting a hand on his now irritated eye and kept his other hand feeling the obstacle.
Disoriented, the Gryffindor kept going forwards, only to realize that he'd gone back to his starting point when he felt the cold knob of the Charms' classroom door. "Oh, come on." he'd turn around again, this time going slowly. But that wasn't much of an improvement as he found himself falling down a small pit, landing on a bunch of square foams.
Well, at least he was somewhere in the middle of his destination, right? Only Merlin knows. Noah kept still as he nursed his eye, only to realize that he also bit his lip when he fell. The sting and taste of blood wasn't new to him. What he didn't like was he was blinder than blind.
Hearing the others making it to the other side, Noah turned on his belly and tuned his ears toward them, and slowly crawled his way over employing his sense of touch this time. Slowly but surely, he made it to the end as he grappled one of the chairs and stayed put to catch his breath and blink away the tears from his irritated eye.
