So after focusing on breathing for a couple of minutes. Cassia regained her sense and got rid of the weird feeling that was caused by smelling the awful Reem's blood. Mental note; never smell Reem's blood.


The first year approached her cauldron again and peered at it. Was it brewed correctly until now? She wondered. Glancing at Professor Lafay, was the woman watching their progress? Probably yes for the potion master wouldn't want anyone to get themselves injuried…..maybe not because of this but she probably didn't want mess to be caused. The Slythrin shrugged and reached for her parchment.

Again covering it with her hand she only revealed what to add next. "Five table spoonful of chopped fwooper voice box,," She winced at the thought of it. Let's just add it and think much..she thought. She stared at the ingredients positioned next to her cauldron, "Mmmm…here it is, "She said stretching her arm to get it. As she added the five spoonful. She looked at the substance on her pot, she couldn't remember was its color changing or it was like that from the beginning. She shrugged, most potions and maybe all of them involved the change of color.
Checking the list again, "Now the flowers," She was so eager to smell those, considering they were flowers! They ought to have good smell. But she thought better of it and reached for them without getting them close to her nose, "Three..Four.." she counted adding them as she noticed the change of color a biiit.

Cassia glanced around her checking how her classmates are doing. All was busy with brewing the potion. Well, there was nothing else to do ,was there? She turned back on her cauldron. Well, it hasn’t let out any funny smell ,fume or fireworks! So that means she was doing well.

She slid her finger down showing the next ingredient, "Snake fangs.." she smiled at the mention of Snake. Somehow at the mention of serpents she always smiles..as an act of proud of her house….It made perfect sense to her. She added the fangs one by one keeping her face away from the surface of cauldron making sure if anything occurred her face was safe. Fortunately nothing happened.

Not much left she thought as she glanced at the parchment. Oz of worm wood! Weird..she thought. How the most bizarre things she encounters in this lesson. Moving on..she measured five oz and added them carefully to the cauldron. Cassia wiped her forehead as a layer of sweat formed. Probably because of the heat.

And the last thing to be added is "Five sneezworts petals..Eh" she wrinkled her nose ,"Now that is the weirdest.."She giggled. She reached for the last and added it slowly, she didn't want to mess up after finally finishing. She looked at the parchment and made sure she hadn’t forgot any of the ingredients. Nodding at herself, she glanced at the cauldron. What now, does something have to happen ? Sparks maybe..she giggled silently. Professor Lafay would've never chosen this potion had it contained sparks and childish stuff.

Cassia stepped away from the cauldron and crossed her arms over her chest. Now she shall wait until the master of potions gives the word.
