"Well back again for another year, eh Remus?" said the tall young man to the large German shepherd on the other end of the leash he was holding. Walking through the building that had performed as his school for the last five years once again filled Justin Judge with a feeling of nostalgia. It was like he was remembering the sights, but the smell of the stone hallways, the hard floor beneath his boots, and the light glow he sensed from the walls were all too familiar to him.
A sudden jerk from the leash attached to his left hand brought Justin back into the present. "Are we already there?" he asked his canine friend. A single, cheerful bark from his side told him all he needed to know. He inched the white cane in his right hand forward until it struck solid wood. Judging the distance from past experience, only a moment of searching was needed to locate and turn the door's knob.
And so Justin entered his old, familiar dorm room, leaving the door wide open to the connecting hallway. The room was such smaller than most around the school, but Justin was the only claimed child of Themis so he wasn't forced to share with anyone. As he located his old bed, Justin sensed the familiar tan glow that he knew to be his dog rushing around the room, mostly likely sniffing the place over to find even the smallest change in scent from last year. Remus might be an enchanted dog with near-human intelligence, but he was still a dog with dog instincts. Finding his bed within the room, Justin placed his backpack upon the clean sheets and began to pack all of his belongings back in their places his old room.
