Potions Class |
You enter a dark damp room located in the north tower of the kingdom. Suddenly you hear a deep voice say: "Sit down class." You sit down with your best friend at a table for two. Your pants start to get wet, since the stool is also wet. All of a sudden a figure all dressed in black appears. Some spring girls scream, some summer boys laughed, some fall boys got up with their wands in their hands, but the winter people remain quiet. They knew who that figure was. (If you belong to Winter and do not know go to your common room) He was Vernon Swrilcund, the most evil person in Kingdom Of Magic. He had once tried to kill Wendy Winter, the founder of Winter House. All the students on Winter House knew this, since it was in their history section in their common room. The 3 other founders wanted to banish him, but in his contract it said that he had to be at least 200 years teaching. He had drunk the potion of immortality, created by him, that made him Immortal. Although the Winter bunch was quiet, there spines shivered. Swrilcund, or Cunning Swirl, as the winter bunch had nicknamed him, looked around at his class, smiled a nasty smile. The whole class except the winter bunch was talking, playing, throwing paper planes, doing duels, and messing up with the potions, and more naughty stuff. Then he shouted: "QUIET!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYONE TO THERE PLACES NOW!!!!!" Everybody ran as fast to they could to their places and looked with scared faces at the teacher. "Good. Now that everybody is in their places, I want to award 10 points to Winter for being so calm while the other houses were doing other stuff." Everyone was surprised. Then he added: "Let's get on with the class." Everyone just nodded. "Now, today class, we will be learning a to do a potion called dreaming potion." He looked around to see if everyone was following. "There are 2 types of dreaming potions. Can someone guess what they are?" A Summer girl lifts up her hand. "You" Cunning Swirl says to the girl. "One for having nightmares and the other for having good dreams?" said the girl in a doubtful voice. "Yes, that is correct, 5 points for summer." The girl smiled slightly. "So, Today class, we will do both." He paused for a moment. "Is everyone OK with that?" Everyone nodded. So, please take your book "Learn to mix and ingredients of potions" and turn to page 354. So everyone turned to that page. Now, here, it says to do the nightmare one, so we will first do this one. Let's see who gets it right first. Now to work! You stare for a few seconds at Professor Swrilcund, and then look at your book. It says : Nightmare Potion - 2 bat ears - 5 frog eyes - a captured high pitched scream of a witch in midnight - 3 spoons of vampire blood - 12 tarantula legs - a bottle of captured night cloud First throw inthe 2 bat ears, and stir for 2 minutes. Then, grate the frog eyes and put them in, while stirring. Cut each leg of tarantula in 3 equal parts, and put in. Each time you put in nine, add a spoon of vampire blood. Last, put in the scream, and cover it with the night cloud, as you chant : Oh, may this potion make you die of fright, in a spine chilling nightmare you will have tonight! A scream of a witch will make you shiver, and a 12 legged tarantula will make your whole body quiver! You will tell your most intimate secret to the world, as it will be heard by bats ears, They is more to come, scary things, and all your fears! Your most private or secret thing shall be seen by frog's eyes, Oh don't you wish now you can rise! At last at midnight you nightmare will be covered by a cloud that is black and deep, Oh, aren't you glad, that you were just asleep! Then, a black smoke will come out of the potion, and then die down, if it is well done. ------------------- o -------------------- After you do the following , nothing happens, but all of a sudden you hear a sort of an explosion, and then it cools off. "Very good!" you hear the teahcer say, so you smile and expect him to reward you, but then you realise that he was saying that to some short chesnu-headed twins from fall. "5 points for Fall!" You growl. Professor Swrilcund says "Are you a dog?" with the most upleasant tone and walks away. "So, now class, we are going to learn the good dreams page. Turn to page 355, the next page. So, let's see who solves it in 3 minutes. Ready? Go!" So you hurry up and read the ingredients : Good Dreams Potion - 4 bands of the rainbow - 6 unicorn hairs - 3 rays of sun - an enchanted smiley - a bottle of hapiness of 5 people - a star pillow - 1 moonbeam First, put the bottle of hapiness in and stir for 5 seconds. Throw in the rainbow bands. Then, put 1 ray of sun, 2 unicorn hairs, stir. Repeat 2 times. Squish up the pillow over the cauldron, it should explode. (If it does not, just use the explosiatre spell) Put the moonbeam in. It should sizzle. Then, finally, slowly, so the spell has effect, put the enchanted smiley in. When it is melted, stir as you sing : Oh, tonight you shall have a lovely dream, with a rainbow that shines, like a moonbeam! A unicorn will run freely in the sun, then you shall ride, and have some fun! Then hapiness in your body will flow, and the stars on your pillow will glow! At last your most dear soul will smile at you, Maybe even your mother, or even your best friend too! Oh, what a nice dream you have had! But now, it's over, isn't that bad! ------------------------- o ---------------------- As soon as you finish reading the poem, the book closes by it's self, and all the leftover ingredients dissapeared. "Time's up class!" Professor Swirlcund shouts. No one had managed to do the poem, you had almost done it, if you had only had 5 seconds more. But suddenly, a rainbow smoke comes out of your cualdron. "Well done!!!" shouts professor Swirlcund. "Too bad time's up." he smiles a nasty smile and walks in front of the class and says : "It's about to ring class, so I'll give you your homework. |
