Name: Riley Sparkles House and Year: Gryffindor Fifth Year Lesson Missed: One, Two, Three Your Professor: Professor Harry Thornton Lesson One Riley quickly ran to her CoMC class. It was her first lesson back and she was already running late. She cursed herself, because she knew she was supposed to be doing well this year, her OWLS were coming up, and she needed to get Outstandings in order to be an Auror. She skidded to a halt by her class mates, smiling an apologetic smile to her Professor, hoping she wasn't too late. She listened to what he said, greeting him cheerfully when he called her name from the roll. Riley's eyes lit up when she heard what they would be doing for that lesson. She quickly pulled out her quill and parchment and wrote down a few notes as Professor Thornton spoke. Once he finished talking, Riley quickly moved to her side, eager to get a look at the unicorns. She inwardly squee-ed when she saw the unicorns, falling in love with them immediately. Riley thoroughly enjoyed stroking the unicorn, and feeding it the carrot. She sighed when she heard the lesson was up and that she had to write an essay.
Lesson Two Riley strolled into her CoMC classroom, finally early for once. She knew she had to start getting her A into Gear because it was her OWL year. No more sleeping in class, no more late assignments; this was going to be a tough year for Riley. But it was definitely worth it - being an Auror would be her dream. Riley sat in the front of the class, which would force her to focus. She quickly took out her quill and parchment, and waited for the class to start. She wasn't too stoked to be in a classroom again, but Riley supposed every class had to have their theories. Riley began to take notes as Professor Thornton explained the different types of creatures that existed.
Riley grinned when the Professor gave them permission to pet the animals. The first one she went to was the Snidget, as she found it the cutest. After looking at it after awhile, she moved onto the Knarl, which was definitely cute as well. Riley laughed at it's suspicious looks to everyone, finding it even cuter. Turning to the Demiguise, Riley slowly walked towards it. It wasn't something that she would generally find cute, but as she watched it, Riley grew to like it. After hanging with the creatures for a while, Riley wrote a few extra notes down, then smiled at the Professor as she left. O=11 & O=11 |

Name: Rakas Varius House and Year: Gryffindor Fifth Year Lesson Missed: 3 Your Professor: Professor Harry Thornton [justify]Rakas Varius was excited for his next lesson in Care of Magical Creatures class. He had always enjoyed having this class because it was one of his favorites but not his favorite completely. He loved Potions more, but it was a close tie for his favorite. He rushed out to the grounds to attend the class because he needed to have a good grade for it anyway. He stood around with the other fifth years in the class that needed to have this class for their future. They were greeted as per usual, and Rakas smiled even more. Today the professor wanted to make everything else spooky and wondered if they were going to be meeting some scary creatures or something. Professor Thornton started saying some riddles, and the last one Rakas knew what the creature was, and it was a thestral. A student in the class answered it right which was correct. They were going to be studying those creatures today which was exciting for the young Gryffindor. Not everyone would see them, and that included the young Gryffindor. He had never seen death before, which was why he would never be able to see a thestral. They made their way into the forest, and they did not go in too far which was saddening to Rakas because he liked the thought going in deep into the forest was like a whole other adventure. Rakas watched as Professor Thornton patted the air but then he realized that the man might be able to see these creatures. He threw a piece of meat and then something made it hover in the air. His emerald green eyes widened a little bit because he knew that piece of meat was going to be devoured by the thestrals. He could picture them in his eyes, and thought and wished that he could see it. The next creature that they were going over was something that really made Rakas want to ride. It was a Griffin. Those creatures might be dangerous, but it seemed to like Professor Thornton. But what he enjoyed the most was that they were going to ride the Thestrals. Thankfully, Professor Thornton helped him out with riding the thestral, but then they were soon dismissed without homework. Rakas left the forest happy that he had a great day.[/justify] O=10 |

Name: Dannii Merrythought House and Year: Hufflepuff 7th Year Lesson Missed: 2, and 3 Your Professor: Professor Thornton Dannii was extremely grateful that she only had two classes this semester. She already had plenty of homework, but that was pretty much nothing compared to her peers who were taking other classes. So what if there won't be as many career opportunities for me. Theres only one thing I want to do and thats quidditch. It was a beautiful morning and Dannii was taking her sweet time getting to class. She rarely had time to herself anymore so walking to Care of Magical Creatures was always a nice walk when there was good weather. As usual she was the first one to class so she stood around waiting for the rest of the students while Professor Thornton took care of the animals. You know a teaching job might not be so bad if it was this class. Dannii thought. She almost immediately took it back though at the thought of marking homework. Soon enough the rest of the students arrived and Professor Thornton began the lesson by taking attendance. When he told them they were going to be studying dragons today Dannii let out a little gasp of excitement. She had always thought dragons were amazing and beautiful creatures. It completely shocked her that some people wouldn't want to study dragons. The lesson got even better when the Professor announced a field trip. Would they really get to see a live dragon? Although she still wasn't a huge fan of traveling by portkey she was still one of the first to touch a piece of the kettle. Dannii felt a jerking sensation around her middle and almost at once she was landing hard, but on her feet for a change. Dannii turned around trying to look everywhere with an expression of amazement on her face. They were surrounded by dragons. She had to pull herself away from the gigantic beasts to listen to Professor Thornton's lecture. I really should be taking notes right now. This is bound to be on my exam. The Head Girl told herself. But when had she ever taken notes unless necessary? I wonder if you could ride a dragon like a Hippogriff? Dannii wondered. She made a mental note to ask one of the dragon keepers that. Once the students were released Dannii set off on her own to go look at the dragons. Dannii hadn't realized before just how many different kinds of dragons there were. She counted at least 10. The first one Dannii stopped to look at was a giant red and gold dragon. The Chinese Fireball. It had with it the most beautiful clutch of eggs Dannii had ever seen.A bright red with golden specs on it. After a few minutes watching the dragon breath mushroom shaped clouds of fire onto its eggs Dannii continued on. She would ask one of the keepers a few questions ever once and a while but mostly stayed in an amazed silence. The two hours the students had went by far too fast in Dannii's opinion. She could have stayed and studied the dragons all day. She walked back to Professor Thornton without making much of a fuss though and returned back to the school. Professor Thornton announced that there would be no homework, but they were to go over the notes that had taken. Crap. I knew I forgot to do something. Dannii thought looking down at the almost empty notebook in her hands. Oh well. she told herself shrugging it off and going back up to the castle. Dannii yawned and stretched as she made her way down to Care of Magical Creatures. She had been on patrol last night, and hadn't gotten as much sleep as she would have liked. I really hope its another exciting lesson today. she thought trying to keep her eyes open. She knew it wasn't likely though. Since this was their NEWT year there were a lot more theory based lessons then practical lately in all her classes. One could always hope though. It was another beautiful New Zealand day and the warmth of the sun was not helping keep Dannii awake at all. A nap would be wonderful right now. When she reached Professor Thornton she noticed that she was one of the last ones to show up. Almost as soon as she entered the group of students the professor conjured some blankets and pillows and took role call. Dannii was to busy picking out the softest blanket and almost missed Professor Thornton calling her name. Dannii spread out her blanket and pulled some parchment and a quill out of her bag ready to take notes. She had a hard time concentrating on Professor Thornton though. All his words sounded like mumbles and everything was getting blurry. She did perk up a little when he asked a question though. She raised her hand and for some reason was picked even though she only looked about half conscious. "This Lethifold is also known as the living shroud." Dannii mumbled. Amazingly she managed to get it right and have everyone understand her. Maybe I'll just rest my eyes a little. Dannii thought as she rested her head on the ground and closed her eyes. The next thing Dannii knew she was being woken up by a very loud clap. She had slept through almost the whole lesson. Well thats just perfect. Dannii groaned. At least she had her notes on Lethifold's from Defence Against the Dark Arts. And she coulf get the notes about whatever else they had learned about from Rue later tonight. Dannii gave the professor an apologetic look and blushed a little. Good going Dannii. The one teacher you want to impress and you fall asleep in his class. she scolded herself.
