Andrew was very excited for this day.It had almost been a month before he had started his journey for brewing his own aging potion and now the day had finally come.He was very positive for the potion's effects and wanted to try them to see if it really worked, how he'd look when he was a bit more matured and also to checkout know that if someone could become more knowlagable (as they would be older) by simply drinking the potion.

He took all the ingrdients required for the potion from the bottom of his trunk where he had kept them safely after sneaking some from Professor Keller's cupboard with help of Kirsty.That reminded him that he had not informed Kirsty that they would be brewing the potion today.He quickly scribbled down two lines in a parchment and sent it with his owl, Abe.It would reach her just in a couple of seconds and than they could go and find an empty classroom somewhere in the dungeons.

He climbed down the staircase from the boys dormitory and entred the common room.A few familiar faces turned in his direction and he smiled at them, not wanting to get in a conversation with anyone at the moment.
 
Kirsty had received an owl from Andrew when she was at the lake about the brewing potion. She ran down to see where Andrew was and said." Hi." when she found him. " Where do you want to brew the potion?" She asked kindly.
 
Andrew noticed Kirsty enter the common room and walked to her."Hi.I think an empty classroom in the dungeons would be appropriate.Do you have any other suggestions?After all you are my patner"he said with a grin.
 
" Yeah the dungeons would be good. 'Coz then the Professor's wont find out." Kirsty said grinning. Imagine if the Professor did find out. She thought to herself'
 
"Well I cant guarantee you that we wont be caught.Its involves risk but also excitment, you have to chose your path ahead. Will you still be my patner, you know we can end up in detention if we are caught?"he asked Kirsty with a smile on his face because he already knew what she'd answer.Some slytherin first years were staring at them wondering why they were carrying a cauldron on a Sunday.
 
"Course i will, if we are caught its not the end of the world, only a detention."Kirsty said grinning.
 
"Of course it isnt."he agreed returning th egrin."So shall we go?"he asked leading the way out of the common room.He entered the dungeons passage and started walking on the opposite side of the dungeons which he had never wondered where it had led.It was dark so he said "lumos" withdrawing his wand."I think the more father in the dungeon the more better"he said still walking in search of the empty classroom.
 
" Yeah." Kirsty said then walked out of the common room beside Andrew. She walked into the dungeons passage and looked for empty an empty classroom. " Ok."She said.
 
He noticed a classroom that looked like it wasnt being used because its door was rusted and covered with spider webs.He pushed the door and it opened witha creak.There were no desks in the classroom except for the teacher's table.He lit the lamps with his wand and cleaned some of the dirt using the cleaning charm he had learnt from his text book."Looks a bit friendly now, dosent it?"he asked Kirsty with a smile.
 
Kirsty heard a creak and turned round to see what the noise was, she noticed Andrew had found a classroom so walked into it." Yeah." she said smiling. Kirsty looked round the classroom and went over to see the teachers desk.
 
"So um..shall we begin?"he asked her as he sat on the teacher's bench like an Indian in front of the cauldroun.He took out a jar that carried blue flames/fire that he had made after learning it from a book in the library.And its speciality was he could carry it around in jars.He put it on his right together with the wormwood, moonstone powder, armadillo bile and hellebore flower.He had got his ginger from the kitchens, those house elfs were always ready to serve the students.

He also took out a paper bag in which he had filled the food that he had sneaked from the kitchens.It included cookies, pastries, cauldroun cakes and peanut butter sandwiches."I sneaked all these from the kitchen when I had gone to take ginger."he explained Kirsty offering her all the yummies."I sugest you read this once so that you know exactly what to do.Meanwhile I will start to grind the moonstone into powder.I borrowed this mortar and pestel from Kasey saying that I needed it for inventing my own potion."he informed Kirsty giving her the paper which held the procedure for preparing the aging potion.
Aging Potion

-3 Cups Water
-2 Ginger roots, cut into tiny pieces
-3 Hellebore petals, sliced evenly
-The bark of 4 wormwood branches, crushed
-3 drops Armadillo Bile
-1 Moonstone, powdered (crushed)

Instructions:

This potion has a lot of preparation needed, so you should do this before starting your water.

Prepare all ingredients, making sure to apply plenty of pressure when grinding moonstone into powder. Once all ingredients are prepared, start water on high heat. Wait unti water begins to steam, then add moonstone, armadillo bile, and the Hellebore. Stir for three minutes continually. Lower heat to medium, then add the rest of the ingredients. Stir often, heating for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove from heat, and allow to cool without moving cauldron for 3 minutes. It's very important that you not tip the cauldron at any time.

Effects: Although it is not permanent, the aging solution will make a person appear older for a certain amount of time

"Yeah, great." Kirsty said. " Terrible, you shouldnt be taking stuff from the kitchens." She said jokingly then took a peanut butter sandwich and started to eat it. Kirsty took the paper and started to read it, looking at all the ingredients and the instructions." I think I will start to cut the ginger roots into tiny pieces." She said. Kirsty then looked in the teachers desk for a knife and found one at the back, she then turned to Andrew. " Why do you think this teacher had a knife in their desk?" She asked. She then started to cut the first ginger root into tiny pieces.
 
"Um...I don't know maybe this was the previous potion classroom or maybe some other reason.What do you think, why was it here?"he asked her.Only some of the moonstone was left to be grinded to fine powder."Have you cut vegetables before, if not better not use that thing, you couldn't cut ginger without practice"he informed kirsty.Andrew had done all the kitchen, laundry, gardening work before because they had to do all the chores at the orphanage in turns.

((how am i suppose to know?You brought up the thing :p ))
 
" I don't know either." Kirsty said truthfully. She then continued to cut the ginger roots into tiny pieces, " Yeah, I have done it before when I was helping my dad make something" She answered when Andrew asked if she had ever cut anything before.

[ Don't know, just thought of a way to get a knife. :p ]
 
((Did you recieve some sort of special permission from an admin to make an aging potion, and what exactly is it being made for? First and Second years aren't even able to make the aging potion yet, you need to be in fourth to learn it in class, so I doubt you are allowed to make it in the second year in 'hiding'. I'd also like to note that my character can't even make it yet, since she hasn't taken Potions yet... I'm actually surprised nobody else has said anything about this. =-/ ))
 
"Oh I see.Are you the youngest sibling in your family?"he asked her as he placed the finely powdered moonstone aside.He looked at the list and thought that he could do the wormwood crushing while Kirsty could do the hellebore petal cutting.

((Yes we have officially got permission from Prof Keller.We had RPed in detail to find wormwood and hellebore in the lawn and the forest an dto sneak the moonstone and armadillo bile from the Prof's store which he himself allowed us to do the RP.

This potions is brewed mainly so that andrew and Kirsty could drink it and start liking each other which we didnt think would happen naturally unless maybe they were older because they just took each other as friends.

I think its perfectly fine if we have the permission to make the potion.We can make it as long as we follow the instructions afterall hermione could make the potion that they wouldnt have been taught till the sicth year but i am not saying that we are Hermiones but we are Kirsty and Andrew :D

Yeah one more thing to add.I have thought that we would invite someone to this RP that could see us when he have drunk the potion and maybe complain to a Prof or blackmail us.I havent decided whom it shall be.))
 
" No, i have a little brother who will be coming here in a couple of years." Kirsty said then placed the finely cut ginger roots to the side of the table and asked. " So what one should we do next?"

[ Yeah good idea but who do you think would want to.]
 
"Oh thats nice."he said with a smile."You can cut the hellebore petals while I crush the wormwood than we'll be ready to brew"he informed Kirsty."Whats your brother's name? Do you think he'll be a slytherin too?"he asked her curiously.

"Hey, yeah I totally forgot to ask you this.Will you come with me to my godmother's house during the holidays.It will be very boring for me to be there alone.But if I have some company its a wonderful place to explore.It is a totally wizarding type of manor which has its root in deep magic.And there's a big garden where I can teach you Qudditch and there's also a swimming pool but I'd stay far from there.I dont want to drowm myself again."he said with a grin.He was sure that without Isabella, he wouldnt go swimming again.

((I dont know, you decide.I decide everything so I leave this to you :D ))
 
Kirsty picked up the hellebore petals and started to cut them and then answered Andrews question. " John, Im not sure everyone else in my family has been in Slytherin but he could be in any of the other houses."

" Yeah, but are you sure she wouldnt mind, i mean she hasnt even met me or anything." Kirsty asked. " What about you, have you got any brothers or sisters?" she asked as she continued to cut the petals.

[ Well, i know Kyle Smith is a sort of trouble maker but he is hardly ever on.]
 
"Of course she wouldnt.She herself asked me if I'd like to bring a friend.She hasnt met you but knows very well that you are a friend"he said witha smile.
"No, I don't.I dont know if I have any step brothers or sister.My father was muggle and dumped my mom when he knew that she was a witch"he exaplined Kirsty.

((Well I think you can PM him and if he replies in three days than he can blackmail us for ... I am PMing you and otherwise I can ask Kasey as a 'Prefect' to join us and complain or Aurora to complain.))
 
" Ok then, if your sure she doesnt mind."Kirsty said smiling. When Andrew told her about his parents she said. " Oh, im sorry." Then continued to cut the hellebore petals.

[ Ok good idea, i have pm'd him but if he doesnt reply i will tell you and we can ask one of the others.]
 
"Oh Thats okay.I have been living with that truth since when I was born" he laughed a cold, fake laugh at the stupidness of hir mother and the foolishness of his dad.Did he think that someone wouldnt take revenge from him? Well, if not I'll show him that he had to by taking my revenge.He had completed to crush the wormwood and he placed the finely crushed powdered wormwood in another container."I'm done"he said streching out his arms.
 
[ Hi, Kirsty sent me a message asking if I wanted to come here and threaten to tell the Professors if she doesnt go to the ball thing with me. If this is the topic then I will edit my post.]
 
Kirsty finished cutting the last bits of petal and said. " Same here."
