Apparition 2

Irene stood in her Ministry robes looking as poised as ever as she awaited the sixth years' arrival. Today, they'd finally get some practice in. She knew that some students had experience with side-along apparition, but doing it alone was a very different experience. They'd soon find that out for themselves. It was one thing to go along for the ride, and quite another thing to be the person who had to remember the 3 Ds and execute them perfectly.

"Let's go. You don't have all day and neither do I." Irene Finch urged the students forward impatiently as the first student walked tentatively through the open Great Hall doors. She took roll as they entered, shutting the doors from the distraction of younger students who wanted to see what was happening. "You don't need to be on top of each other. Space yourselves out!" she stated, exasperation in her tone. Irene gave her wand a small flourish and a large wooden hoop appeared in front of each student, falling into place before them.

Looking around at their faces, Irene stared at each student for the briefest of moments, making judgments about their ability to succeed at the task before them. She had been doing this long enough that she was rarely wrong. "Alright, let us begin. Today, you will make your first attempts at apparating" she declared, her hands on her hips as she walked around. "Before we begin, however, can someone remind us of the three Ds?" she pointed to a student and nodded her head as they responded.

"Excellent" she stated. "Now that you've all been reminded of the three Ds, it is time to put them into practice. For your safety, one of your school nurses is here" she nodded towards the corner where the nurse was stationed. "If you splinch yourself, please remain in your spot and the nurse or I will come to you. No sense bleeding all over the place" she stated with a small shake of her head, not even thinking about how startling that sentence might seem to a muggleborn. She didn't explain splinching either. Sooner rather than later, she was sure they'd learn if they didn't already know. "Begin. I will be walking around."

[Apolline Fontaine]

Apolline walked to the great hall and stood amongst the others in the class. Her gaze moved to the teach as they were guided in and Apolline found herself a spot apart from the rest where she had space. A wooden hoop appeared in front of her and she nodded lightly before listening along to the professor. She just needed to focus. The professor then let them try, have a go at it. She focused, remembering the three D's and let her mind stay on that. She felt like she stood there for most of the time, that nothing was happening and having to claw herself back from panic. Eventuall though she felt something and in leaning in, was transported across the room to be within the hoop. She hadn't splinched herself or anything. With that Apolline was feeling pretty good and now that she'd done it, it would get easier, with that she was able to leave the hall.

 

[Morrie Ayre]

Morrie was literally only here for the license, she huffed when she was hurried along and took a disliking to the ministry woman. She tried not to think too much about it as she focused on the Dull 3 D's and how lame that sounded as a way to remember three words beginning with D. She waited for her turn but when she tried, she focused and focused but did not manage to apparate. That annoyed her, especially when people like Apolline were managing it. Spiraling to too angry to focus, Morrie stormed out of the hall without another word.

 

[Violet Owens-Rosemary]

Violet made her way to her Apparition lesson and gathered around as the ministry lady spoke. They were actually going to try apparating this time and Violet was happy for this. The lady reminded them of the three D’s before allowing them to begin. She lined up with her peers and watched as others tried it first. They seemed to be doing it easily and Violet was confident that she also could. When it was her turn, she took a deep breath and tried to clear her mind, focusing on the three D’s. It took a couple of tries, but eventually she was able to do it and she beamed at her success before leaving the great hall.
