"ACK!" the man couldn't help but cry out in shock at the sensation of tiny, piercing little fangs digging into his hand. His eyes doubled in size at the sight of the bowtruckle in his hand, and he let go of it immediately, hoping the thing would drop off if he weren't holding on to it.
Unfortunately, it seemed that the bowtruckle was the one holding on to him. "Holy Mother of Merlin....." Willy swore, along with a few other choice phrases under his breath. He started shaking his left hand rapidly, then, hoping that he could free his hand of the creature by flinging it off.

Really though, it had been her first interaction with a dangerous creature outside of a class setting, acting perfectly would have been astonishing. Live and learn, right?
Were they supposed to copy his movements? Kurumi didn't actually stand up, but instead remained crossed legged on her bench with her wand out and her upper body in a defensive position like he was demonstrating.
Oh, wait, they were supposed to stand up. hehe. Kurumi Jumped to her feet and re-positioned herself and was about to answer with her thoughts when...
o________________O
HIS WAND CAME TO LIFE?! Well, it wasn't actually his wand but a stick that he had picked up off the ground, only it wasn't a stick at all and Kurumi immediately recognized it as a bowtruckle. But...why was it munching on Professor Williamson?!
Her eyes darted around the area, looking for something in particular, when she noticed a small tree not too far from where she was standing. Leaning over, Kurumi checked its branches and leaves, hoping that the tiny insects were present. Come on...come on...AHA!
Kurumi waved her wand over the insects (wood lice) and levitated a few into the air, guiding them towards Professor Williamson and the obviously hungry bowtruckle.
However, it seemed that Willy wasn't going to be able to just shake off the bowtruckle. The thing's fangs were deep into his hand and he was really starting to feel a tingling sensation all throughout his arm.
Fortunately for him, though, one of the Prefects kept a calm, level head and used her knowledge of bowtruckles to come to his rescue. William breathed a sigh of relief as a few of the woodlice came floating their way, and he flapped his wrist one last time to shake the bowtruckle in their direction.
It seemed that the creature took the bait, luckily, and willingly let go of his hand at last. THANK MERLIN! William shot a grateful grin over at Kurumi and quickly wrapped his bleeding hand up in the bottom of his shirt, just now realizing that his class had erupted into nothing short of pure pandemonium.

It raised its pinchers in the air and shot a huge flame up in the air... Wonderful. Bowtruckles, blast-ended skrewts, and who knew what was next... oh my!
"ALL RIGHT, everyone, you all need to just CALM DOWN," the professor shouted loudly, noting who was panicking, who was hiding (Daichi???) and who was trying to lead the others into a more tranquil state.
"It's just a blast-ended skrewt. They aren't THAT horrible, although any spell you throw at them will bounce off its thick, armor-like shell." He took a breath and gestured for the class to get behind him. "So what we have to do is figure out a way to either lure it away from class," by finding something it would want to eat, "or else stun it by getting to its underbelly."
Right. Think time. "Get behind me, guys," Williamson remembered to add, again motioning the class toward him with his wrapped-up hand. "Prefects to the front. If anybody has candy on them, toss it away toward the forest to distract the skrewt. Do NOT make any sudden movements or cast any spells."
