Extended Studies

[Lucy Madden]

Lucy appareted in the safest street in London City, unseen so that no muggel could see that she had use magic to get here. It was an autumn bright day, the sun was set a little high in the skies and it look as if it wasn't going anywhere till a few hours later would passed. For this she wore shaded black glasses and a hat to protect her sensitive eyes. She dress a sweater over a tank top and comfortable pants accompanying by small flats. A regular wardrobe for such a casual day. Lucy adventure out into the common areas of London and right by this familiar coffee shop she waited for Miss Brookes to arrive. Her blonde hair moved when she moved, she had to admit her hair duo was a little off but it matched very well with the rest of her outfit. Lucy loved to be comfortably seen. Since it was another lesson, she fussed not getting well put together, she was satisfied how she look and careless of the public opinion on her on that fine Autumn day.

Her warm blue eyes gaze about the crowd walking passed her, some gave up a friendly smile, others didn't bother to look her way. Lucy smiled back, she really needed to make an effort in making friends. Or else she'd be known as the workaholic in the family. Lucy looked over the time, any minute now she counted Miss Brookes to arrive soon.

Out of Character:

Okay when we start this, I want you to be struggling and I mean struggle like hell. We can't be perfect and get this right on the first time. Otherwise it will be boring and no point in doing this if it's not fun. Plus it's unnatural to be perfect, and rather annoying

 

[Mizelea Brooks]

There were no exact place but there was London, the place she knew where Lucy Madden was going to meet her. At first she was confused but managed to arrive just int time, thanks to Beauxbatons she had a lot of free time. Even for a Prefect, Mizzy loved to break some rules from to time. So as she arrived, Mizeleawandered her eyes and started to see someone familiar. It was Lucy, she looked lovely as ever. She began to approach her and beamed a smile, "Good Day Miss Lucy, I'm ready." she said to her quite excited. It was their second time for her training to be acquire Legilimency, which was amazing really. She wasn't sure just yet if they would go to another coffee shop or out somewhere the filed, as long they were going to train.

Some part of her was really nervous about the whole training, she didn't knew how Lucy anger was. Still she tried her best to disciple herself that very day, looking at her shoes. She picked out a sundress and some heels, not the best choice but for her it was. Mizelea was small and needed some elevation, other than that she was comfortable with her heels and almost every shoes. She stood there waiting for some instructions as she slowly looked at the other muggles passing by.

Lucy looked over, Mizzy had arrived on time or a little over five minutes later. It didn't matter to Lucy, she greeted the girl a simple smile gracing her face. "Mizzy, it's nice to see you again, you're looking quite wonderful" Lucy gather to her feet and grab her bag. There was time enough for both of them to spare, however Lucy was eager to get started. "Tell me how's life been treating you? And that school you attend, how's it going?" Lucy tilted the sunglasses away from azures hues, they would be blinded by the light if it weren't for the hat she was wearing she'd kept them on. Lucy slip them off and pocket them inside her large handle bag. She let the street civilian walk by them, there was nothing interesting about them that would call attention to muggels. Except for the men, they had nothing to worry their little heads about. Lucy directed Mizzy towards the sidewalk, a bit of walking around some would be healthy for them both. She encourage Mizzy to follow, "Come on it will be great for the both of us if we walk and talk" comfortable and no one else would mind them at all.

 

[Mizelea Brooks]

"Thank You, you too." Mizelea replied as she smiled at her mentor. It was always nice to see old faces, and new too. "Life been treating well, almost got hit by a car though. Then again life is still amazing." she said as images began to enter her mind, remembering the time where Devlin pulled him when she almost got hit by a car. It was unlikely of her to be unaware of her surrounding, still she was klutz after all. Mizelea glance away fro a while, looking at the muggles that were having a coffee or some sort of their work. Still she continued to smiled and face Lucy, "How about you? How's life?" the girl asked wanting to make a nice start for their conversation, as they walked she would glance back and forth at the different teenagers passing by.

Mizelea liked how things turned out for her, including being a witch and now training for Legilimency.
The two continued to walk on the sidewalk, she wasn't sure where they will be heading but that didn't matter right now. She knew Lucy would have something in mind for them today, as she followed her. It must have been a long walk since they she looked at her watch and saw a couple of minutes has passed by. The sixth year really didn't mind at all, though Mizelea kept her mouth shut to keep her from saying anything stupid or anything.

Lucy paid half a mind of where they were going and what she was saying to Mizzy. Lucy listen, she frown hearing about the almost car accident. Lucy though Mizzy was always careful, she didn't picture Mizzy to be clumsy. "That's not much of a great thing, glad your still living" Lucy said in a seriouse, tone she would ask more about it but was there to know? Mizzy was here and that's all that mattered. She warn the girl to be careful next time, muggels contraction can really hurt anyone if you weren't careful. It's unfortunate underage witches didn't have the authority to use magic when it was necessary. Lucy slowed down in her steps and walked down a path, she took Mizzy to the other side of London, the magic side. They were going to do magic outside so how was they going to do with muggel folks around? Lucy briefly explained she was doing well and that wall she was willing to share. It's likely Mizzy would care really, as they were still complete strangers.

Arriving Diagon Alley, Lucy turn to Mizzy. "Were going to practice outside, and this time I'm not going to let it be easy for you to read my mind or any of that matter. I will try to block you away, sort of, but at the same time it will depend on your strength at how good you've gotten. When we've arrived at a park, take on your wand and cast the spell. I will be able to know since you will be looking at me the whole time" they enter the park soon enough, Lucy turn around to face Mizzy, no one was around which was a good thing. Teaching a minor Legilimency always had it's bad reputation especially amongst older wizards, Lucy step into Mizzy view and waited to see that she was properly ready.

Merlin knew it wasn't her time to die just yet, after all she was too young to do so. She knew that Lucy didn't need to know that but the girl thought it would surprise her a bit, also from the sound of it she wanted to get straight to business. Mizelea continued to follow her not sure where the two of them would train, until she noticed that they were already in Diagon Alley. It was such a familiar place for her, since she got rubbed or something there during her first years. The witch changed a lot, knowing how to protect herself and not depending on someone else. It was also refreshing to see people other than her schoolmates and some muggles once in a while. Soon enough the two entered a park, she wasn't sure what park it was and she didn't cared at all.

Nodding at Lucy's words she took a deep breath and brought her wand out, there weren't any wizard or witches around the park. Which was good indeed, with a straight face she positioned her hand as she held her wand. Adjusting her pose to feel comfortable casting the spell, pointing her wand at Lucy. The sixth year tried to begin her training, "Legilimens." said Mizelea, loud and clear. As she flicked her wand towards Lucy, for her first try it was horrible. It didn't went as she expected to happen, there was nothing she could see as if her effort was worthless. Mizzy could feel her whole body heat up as she was worried to fail her training, again she tried to do the spell. Shaking her shoulders a little to lessen her tense, "Legilimens." this time with a bit of fierceness into her voice.

Just like before, nothing happened as if there was a wall blocking her out. It was really disappointing as if she wanted to scream instead she screamed inside her head, "Again." said the witch with assertiveness in her voice. Her face painted with worry yet she was very determined, Legilimens." Mizelea repeated as her she flicked her wand, somehow she saw a couple of images but only for a few seconds as it immediately disappeared. She clasped her hands together, angry of what was happening, "Ugh!" she hissed, mad at herself at the moment. "Give me couple of tries, I know I can do it." stated Mizelea as she looked at Lucy a bit worried.

 

[Lucy Madden]

Lucy stood meters away from Mizzy, she didn't need her wand for she was skilled enough to do many spells wandless. However the spell she used today were the basics of 'protego' and a few whom were intense to shield away any attacks heading in Lucy's direction. She could feel Mizzy penetrate the walls around her, Lucy ease up just a teensy bit. "I'm not going to let you in that easy Mizzy, you're going to have to try harder then that" she used the art of taunting, that should boost up the girl's abilities a bit. There was no way Lucy would let someone at her age level get by, so she had to end the spell and let her try at least to burst through her mind field. It was the only way it will work. One day she will be able to do much more then lurking through layers of her mind, possibly. That would mean she was an expert, Lucy yet to reached those high goals so imagine how long it will take Mizzy.

"Concentrate a little harder and stop getting mad when you're making a mistake. If you make a mistake, try harder, getting mad would only delay you from doing something you want to accomplish here" Lucy said loud only for Mizzy's ear to hear. She smile, encouraging hopefully would do something here. She blocked her again and again, using different forms of 'Protego", basics spells, but Lucy wasn't always to quick. That's what she needed to do here, slip before Lucy said then she would find her way inside Lucy's mind.

 

[Mizelea Brooks]

It wasn't easy this time around, as Mizzy tried to enter Lucy's mind. She knew she was creating a barrier, still she wanted to try and try. After all she was still young and on the other hand Lucy was trained for this, it would probably take a long time to do so but the girl is determined. All she can to was nod her as she repeatedly say the Legilimens, over and over to somehow get a glimpse of her mind. Just as she expected, Mizelea saw nothing as if a canvas was covering her. The brunette bit her lower lip and again pointed her wand at Lucy, followed by the word Legilimens. It took her several minutes to bring her down but after thirty seconds her spirit was lifted again. She listened to Lucy's words and nodded once more, "I will." she assured her.

Mizelea took a deep breath and tried to focus really focus, "Legilimens." said Mizzy and pointed her wand once more.After that she somehow got into her mind but it was only a glimpse, a few images flashed but not enough to actually see them. While doing that Mizzy had her eyes closed and as the images disappeared her eyes began to open. It was bizarre and yet disappointing, she really wanted to see more. "I saw a couple of images...but then it instantly disappeared." she shared to Lucy. Some part of her felt so contented, at least she saw something rather than nothing.
