It was already past midnight when the doors to the kitchens opened and a small, white puff of hair became visible. It lingered there for a moment before pushing the door more open and small Persephone Star became completely visible in the dim candlelight.
She was hungry to put it in a more polite way, and she had heard that they had magnificent kitchens! As she was a muggleborn, she had never heard anything about the houseelves, so she thought that she'd make herself a sandwich before going back to the Hufflepuff common room.
But her surprise was big when she saw tiny creatures, even smaller than her, walking around, minding their own business. They had large eyes, ears and their skin-tone varied from gray to something she preferred to call dirty pink. Wide eyed, she closed the door after her and stepped further into the kitchens, surprised that nobody paid attention to the intruder or her overall. They were so busy in cooking for the next morning they barely noticed anything besides their job. She had a lot to learn from them, Perie thought, as she sat on small chair and looked around. Hunger was long gone by now, the only thing remained there was curiosity.
