No! No! No!

Mia wanted to practice the other way. The one that didn't require her to use any magic especially with all this wood around. Did the Professor not know how fast wood could burn when set on fire?

Heaving a deep sigh, she stood up on shaky legs and headed up the front and picked out some goggles and gloves before returning to her table and sighing again. And what was even worse was that Finn, Sal, Marie and the little first year was all sitting with her so she was going to look like an absolute moron if this went wrong.

She put the gloves on her hands and the goggles over her eyes and then picked up her wand. "Be good to me." She murmured quietly giving her wand a little shake and then turning back to the piece of wood.

Sweeping her wand over the wood, Mia said the incantation. "Intaglio...Thurisaz...Thurisa...Thuris...Thuri... Thur...Thu...Th..." Yes it hadn't taken long and her mind had began to wander off and she was losing her focus. Ironic that she was trying carve a rune that is supposed to help with concentration and she was losing hers very quickly.

With a frustrated little grunt, Mia stabbed her wand at the piece of wood and sparks flew out of the end of it.

Ooops.
