I set my alarm for 8:30 the next morning and groaned when it went off. I was already accustomed to the schedule here at the academy. The late nights and late mornings were actually really a good schedule for teens, I had decided. Getting up this early was a pain.

After a shower, I blowdried my hair to make sure I didn’t freeze outside. Then I dressed warmly and at 9 am on the dot, I headed for the door.

Karen was coming out of her room and grinned at me. “Okay, let’s go! I already cleared it with the headmaster.”

“You have to get permission to leave?”

“Yeah, something about school liability or something. They always say yes, but you have to know where you’re going.”

We stopped by the dining hall to have some oatmeal and coffee before heading out the back door of the castle.

Outside, the air was cutting, even with the sun up. I looked up at the clear blue sky and realized that I hadn’t seen the sky since the day I’d walked into the academy.

“Isn’t it weird there’s no windows in the castle?” I looked back at the towering stone walls. “I kinda miss the sun.”

“You get used to it. Besides, you can always go into the courtyard during breaks.”

“What courtyard?”

“Oh, did I forget to show you? There’s a courtyard .” She grinned at me and started walking down a narrow trail that led through the forest.

“How far is this cave?” I asked. I wasn’t fond of hiking on the best of days and today was cold. There was a smattering of snow, but the ground crunched under my feet.

“Maybe half an hour walking,” she said, dancing ahead.

It was more like 45 minutes, though Karen insisted that was because I was a slowpoke. When we finally saw the crack in the base of what looked like a huge mountain, I was actually pretty warm from the walking.

“That’s the cave? It looks like a slit in the rock.”

“Wait until you get inside.” She pulled a couple flashlights out of her coat pockets and handed me one. “It’s so cool.”

I was doubtful about the cave being as amazing as she said, especially judging from the outside, but it had to be better than standing out in the chilly wind that was already sucking the heat out of me.

“Come on!” her voice echoed from the other side of the crack and I turned sideways and squeezed in after her.

At first glance, it seemed that we were just in a really weird tunnel. The rock was shattered, so it formed broken walls and a jagged roof. Daylight from the entrance fell on the sandy floor, but that dropped off quickly as we moved deeper into the cave.

“Are you sure this is safe?” I was getting nervous.

“I’ve been here lots,” Karen assured me. “Just hang on.”

The air suddenly shifted and the coldness became a damp chill. I realized we’d emerged into a larger space and shone my light around.

The cave was roughly the size of the dining hall and had a high roof, several feet above our heads.
