She walked back to the front of the class and turned to look at them. "Today we will be banishing balls to baskets. I'll like you all to once again step out of your desks and come to the front."

She gave them time to do so and once they did she banished the desk and chairs to the back of the class. Demonstration number one. Now there was a large enough space in the class for everyone to be able to practice the charm.

"The wand motion is very simple. All you need to do is point your wand at the object you are banishing...like I just did with the desks and chairs."

With another flick of her wand the container of brightly coloured balls appeared at the front of the class and so did many different baskets. The Charms professor got to work lining the wall with the basket and placing the ball container a few feet away from. "The aim is to banish the ball into a basket...like so."

She demonstrated causing a purple ball to fly into a basket.

"If you are clear on the instructions you may begin. If not feel free to ask questions."

Lex felt her cheeks going warmer. "Uhh..sorry Professor, it won't happen again for sure." Since when was it a rule to raise your hand? Merlin, you'd swear these Professors thought this stuff up on the spot or something!

She sat eagerly bouncing in her seat; not in the least bit dejected by the Professor's reprimand. This was charms which meant she would be learning spells which meant she would be happy. Not even a strict Professor could bring her mood down! Lex listened attentively to the activity they would be doing. In her head she could already see herself pulling it off without a problem...so nice when a girl could lie to herself to make herself feel better.

When Alexa was given the go ahead she hopped up from her seat and made her way to the front with everyone else. She gasped in awe when all the chairs and desks moved to the back. That. Was. Awesome. She wanted to learn that but at the moment they were learning something else. Lex practically bounced through the whole demonstration, itching for it to be her turn and once the Professor said it was okay she scanned the room for the perfect ball.

Ooo...a blue one.

Lex aimed her wand at it but before casting, reminded herself that she would need the right amount of intent to get it to work. She wasn't in the mood for her spell casting to prove defective. Right... "Depulso." Nothing. Hmmm. She tried concentrating a bit harder. "Depulso!"

Her eyes widen and she took a step back when she saw the ball shoot up and land in a basket.

Whoa...wasn't that like her first try though? Her spells NEVER worked on the first try. That was like some unspoken wand rule that her wand seemed to follow quite religiously.

Could she try again?
