Takuya leaned against his desk as usual, waiting for his students to arrive. He smirked as they took their seats. He was disappointed that he couldn’t show them the plant they were going to go over today, however, he didn’t want to have to explain why there were dead, strangled teenagers in his classroom. He motioned for the chalkboard to come closer to him and out of the corner. Takuya said in a bright voice, "Greetings. Now today, I won't be able to show you what we will be learning about this week. Not everything is properly prepared. It can cause death, like it did Broderick Bode in St. Mungo's. It can be mistaken easily for a Flitterbloom, what you learned last year. If you don’t know what I am talking about, here is a picture of it." He tapped the chalkboard, and an image of a plant appeared. "Devil’s Snare. It is a dangerous plant indeed. I have connections to receiving it, like most people in my position do. It has the power to constrict or strangle its surrounding environment. That also includes people. If struggling occurs, then it will exert even greater strength, thus, killing faster. In 1998, Pomona Sprout used it against the attacking Death Eaters in the war that occurred." Takuya tapped the picture again, and it vanished. It retreated back into the corner. "The only known defense against it is either sunlight or fire, natural or artificial. In light, the plant doesn't move, and in fire, it recoils. It is sensitive to both of them. And, if you were to get caught up in one, that may be the only method to save your life." Takuya stood up straight and said, "I have nothing more planned. However, write a short essay about what you would do if you were to be taken by the Devil’s Snare. You may leave." Homework: RP the lesson for full credit. The essay is for two extra credit points. |

[justify] Ostensia walked into the Herbology Greenhouse with subtle smile on her face. The thick smell of plants and dirt filled her nostrils as she headed over to her usual seat and sat down. Ostensia set her books to the side and awaited for class to start. She was in a fantastic mood this morning. It was easy to see that she was as well. It was all because of her boyfriend too. The two of them celebrated Valentines day together a couple of days ago. Even though it wasn't exactly what Osa had pictured in her mind due to them not being able to go to Brightstone, Damian still managed to find a way to make it sweet. Ostensia couldn't figure out how she had gotten so lucky to have found him. Surely there were hundreds of other girls that would love to get their hands on someone like Damian. As more students piled into the classroom the young Hufflepuff continued to let her mind wander off. Class still hadn't started yet so she figured she would be okay until it did. Ostensia missed Damian being at Hogwarts. He knew how to always make her happy. He used to even help her with her homework when she needed it. Ostensia almost wished that Damian had failed his last year at Hogwarts so he could stay with her another year. Apparently he wasn't on board with that plan though. Ostensia sighed when she noticed that class had begun. Now she needed to actually pay attention. Oh well, Herbology was normally pretty interesting anyways so it shouldn't be too hard to do. Today they were going to learn about Devil's Snare. That cool little plant that kills people. Ostensia pulled out some parchment and started to scribble down some notes. Like how it killed Broderick Bode in St. Mungo's. That could be on the exam and Osa wanted to be ready for it when it did. Ostensia also copied down that it looked like Flitterbloom. Ostensia figured that was really important in case someone thought that the plant was Flitterbloom and accidentally almost killed themselves because of their stupid mistake. It was kind of scary that it strangled whatever got stuck within it's grasp and the more someone struggled the more forced it used. It was even used it a war. 'This plant is badass.' Ostensia thought with a soft smile. She would never want to deal with this viscous plant. It had a weakness though. Sunlight or fire of any sort. Whether real or artificial. Ostensia wrote this down and underlined it. Hopefully she would never need to use it but it could be handy information to have just in case. It wasn't long before class was ended. When it was Ostensia put away her notes, wrote down the homework, and left the classroom along with everyone else. [/justify] |
