Alyssa watched as Professor Lafay suddenly made certain ingredients appear on their work tables. She listened as the Professor identified each ingredient individually before demonstrating what she wanted them to do next in their potions portion of the class. Alyssa then picked up her quilll, and quickly noted the ingredients and the next steps on how to make the potion into her journal.





Alyssa took out her mortar, pestle and measuring cup and placed them on the worktable in front of her. She then took out her wand and cleaned them using the "Scourgify" spell. Inspecting them to make sure that they were thoroughly cleaned, Alyssa then picked up the jar containing one pint of the Horklump juice, measured out half a pint of it in her measuring cup before pouring the juice into the mortar. Then she picked up the dropper containing the Flobberworm mucus and dripped its contents into the mortar adding it to the juice. She then delicately picked up the chizpurfle fangs and added them into the mortar. "One, two, three, four, five, six and seven,"she counted them out as she dropped them in. Then she picked up the bottle of billwig sting slime and poured its contents into the mortar.

Picking up her pestle, she crushed the Chizpurfle fangs pressing down on each one of them, making sure that they were mixed in well with the other liquids in the mortar. Alyssa continued to crush them until mixture in the mortar started changing color. Once it changed to a bright purplish hue, she stopped crushing and put away her pestle. Alyssa then picked up the mortar and poured the mixture into her cauldron of boiling water. She then picked up the jar of Horklump juice and poured the remaining half pint into her cauldron, adding it to the mixture.



Picking up her quill, she then scratched out the steps in her potions journal before sitting back and paying attention to what both Professors were telling them and the answers the other students were providing.
