She took another glance at Logan, but he had busied himself with his rocket now. Just breathe. Sutton told herself.
Holding her wand firmly in her hand, she pointed it at her crunched up rocket and quietly said, "Reparo..." The rocket filled out slightly, but it was nowhere near fixed. Sutton thought she might cry, but she figured that the Professor had seen quite enough tears for one class. Biting her lip, she looked around before regaining her determination to fix her rocket. Clearing her throat, she pointed her wand again and said, much more confidently this time, "Reparo!"
Sutton's eyes grew in astonishment as right there in her hand, the damage done to her rocket was reversed as filled back out, the crinkles disappearing, the wings flattening out, and the surface becoming smooth again. "Logan! Logan! I did it!" she said in an excited voice before she ran back to the fountain and filled her rocket about halfway full of water.
Racing back to the launching pad, she put her rocket back on it very gently and then she froze. Well, her rocket was fixed and ready to go again, but she had no idea WHY her bottle had collapsed under the spell. Maybe if she just watched Logan go first, she'd figure it out. Turning to look at him, she smiled and said, "You go ahead... Don't want them to run into each other or something..." Consulting his notes, Logan quickly found the spell that he needed in order to launch his rocket. Closing his eyes, he started saying the spell in his mind: Explaeris... Explaeris... Explaeris... Explaeris...
Over and over again until he felt ready to try speaking it aloud. "Explaeris... Explaeris... Explaerissss." Not too complicated, and neither was the wand movement; so theoretically it would be a piece of cake getting the bottle in the air as long as he wasn't interrupted in his arm flapping.
Pointing his wand towards the bottle, he drew a circle around it while saying "Explaeris." Immediately after, his arms started flapping in the air like mad.
FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP.
Bigger flaps followed that as he really got into the swing of things. FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP
The bottle was swelling with air. He was on a roll and so sure things were going to go smoothly. FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FL---
Out of nowhere he heard his name being called, and his concentration broke. Flapping stopped, the air escaped. "Yeah, that will be totally fine, Sutton. Glad you fixed your rocket." He beamed at her now. |
