She continued making her rounds until she received questions from two of her older students.

"The spell can be performed on your body but I would prefer if you didn't try it..well at least not today.." in her class. "As for how long the charm lasts well... That usually depends on the person casting the charm. Skill levels matter so you'll find that a more powerful wizard's charm could last almost a whole day while more inexperienced ones will get a few hours tops."

Thing were going very well so Professor Bellaire figured she could make things a bit more challenging for those who had gotten the charm down.

"For those of you having trouble with getting the charm just right please go under the thatched hut. I'll be with you shortly to see what problems you are having." She pointed in the general direction of the hut she was talking. She suppose having a smaller group would give her time to one on one, especially since she needed everyone to get this charm.

"Older students and those of you who think you have master the storm stay here." She banished the raining clouds away and grinned. There was a mischievous gleam in her eyes..just like the evening she had locked Medea in the room.

"I'm not sure how many of you have every been exposed to a hurricane or a tropical storm..." Probably not many. "Today you will all be. As a girl growing up on the island almost every summer we'd face a hurricane or some sort of tropical depression. MY parents would protect the house using this very charm and it saved us from having to rebuild or do repairs after every storm. But before my siblings and I learnt the charm we'd get caught out on the beach sometimes when playing after the eye of the hurricane had passed and all sorts of things would fly at us because of the heavy winds....coconuts became missiles
, parts of muggle houses, tree branches you name it..but those we could dodge..the sand grains were murder. Nothing hurts more to me than getting slapped with sand over and over..it's like being stung by a thousand bees." She grinned...good times...gooood times. "Anyways..you'll all be exposed to hurricane conditions in a little while. You'll need a strong charm so don't put yourself through this if you know you might not be able to produce one. I'll give you a little time to dry off and prepare yourselves." She waited for reactions.

"Now i'll have something special for the witch or wizard who manages to come out of this hurricane the driest and with little or no signs of being stung by sand."


Sierra could do nothing but just...blink.

She'd never experienced a hurricane, but...coconut missles? Muggles houses that attack you? Wild tree branches on a roll? Okay, this just didn't sound like anything nice. She was no wimp, but she honestly hoped she never--...

WHAT?!

This was what they were going through in no time at all?! O_O!!!

At least there was a little something extra for the witch or wizard who managed to luck out and get the best of fate's throws by the time the storm ended. Sierra was just hoping to get out alive, though.

Right. Hurricanes + Sierra =

She addressed those outside of the protective shield from where she was standing.

"If I were you I'd grab hold of a tree!" She warned. Giving them a fe seconds to scramble about Sophia unleashed the hurricane on them.

First there was a gentle enough breeze then it started getting stronger tree leaves start dancing in the wind and then the rain. The beautiful blue of the charmed sky is now dark grey almost black and the rain drops are now no longer drops but feel like bucket loads of water being poured down..[thats if you can feel it that is]. After a little while the once dancing trees will bow so low their leaves should be able to hit you or touch the ground, please be mindful of the flying coconuts and hut debris..dodge them if you can.

"Older students please ensure that the younger ones survive my class thank you."

As for Sir Nick, he could talk to her under the hut mhm.

She turned to the ones that were gathered under the hut. "Okay so one at a time, who's still having problems with casting this charm?"


Truth be told, Sierra was a little tempted to run under the hut with the little ones. She even had one foot headed in that direction when she noticed that Vivi and Kurumi had stayed out. Right. No way would Sierra chicken out now. Somehow, she didn't think she'd ever heard the end of it if so. From Vivi, at least.

Tree. Tree. She needed to grab a hold of a TREE.

Suddenly, she was flailing about trying to get to the nearest tree. Her eyes grew as big as quaffles as she stumbled around in search of a tree. Could she handle this?! Was she prepared?! Oh, dear Merlin, why didn't she get under the hut?!

Help me, Kurumi Hollingberry!!!

When the gentle breeze began, Sierra knew not to be fooled. She immediately whipped out her wand and twisted and turned it in the direction they'd been taught. "Protego Caelum!" she said, but she couldn't be sure if it's worked just yet.

Where was the nearest tree?!

The wind whipped hard just then, and Sierra's feet nearly came out from underneath her. Just at that time, she saw Vivi toss a rope back, and Sierra just knew it was attached to that tree Vivi was latched to.

She grabbed a hold of it, relief washing through her. She braced herself, waiting for the wind to go by while she was safely latched to the tree. THEN... Oh, my MERRRRRRLIN, the rope wasn't attached to anything? Her feet went out from underneath her, and she landed hard on her bottom. The wind skipped her across the ground until...

SMACK!

Sierra face-planted into Vivi Branxton's legs.

Perfect. Just perfect.
