She tried to make herself a bit smaller as the adorable old man went on to announce what she said to the class, looking down at her desk to avoid eye contact. MEEP. BUT...She'd been correct! BEAM! How cool was that? Really cool, that's how.

Ohhhh! So the Jar didn't just age people but made them go through the entire life cycle? WOW. How cool was that? The third year tried not to giggle when Mr. Clark called himself wrinkly, though she wholeheartedly agreed. Homeboy was like the wrinkle king or something! Yeah! The Wrinkle King of Cute! BEAM. She scribbled down some notes, writing all of the new information down because it was quite fascinated.

O___O

Put her head in the jar? Ummm. NO thanks! Of course she'd never do that. Seemed like a horrible idea! Almost as bad as the Theodore nose hair whipping incident of last term. Meep!

Oh...a question! How was the Bell Jar related to what had happened in '96? Hmmm. "Mr. Clark? I think during battle one of the death eater's heads ended up inside the jar! And I'm guessing it did some damage." Heh. That's what he got though, for being a big evil meanie!

And yeah... he is soooo going to ask his Uncle about this jar and all those time related devices he suspects his Uncle uses. Gifts no longer manufactured anywhere... photographs of notable historical people with his Uncle he says were look-alikes? Pffff yeah right.

Now back to the bell jar. Vickers furrowed his brows as Clark continued to explain what it can do. Yes it was an amazing piece of equipment but it was also a cleverly hidden weapon. What if it was stuck on someone then pulled away at the moment that person reached the end of his/ her life cycle? Dying of old age will never be looked upon the same way again.

At the question he raised his hand he says "Its like how you explained it Mr Clark-- someone-- this Death Eater that Hermione Granger was trying to fight off-- actually got his head stuck in the jar, and he started to age rapidly then loop back into babyhood. Suffice it to say that jar is far more effective as a weapon even if that is not its primary purpose."

And if you could, would they just keep you going until you died and then returned to the 'real time' age that you were? Would they use that to help find cures before it was too late? She thought about this more. But if you could stand inside, wouldn't everyone just live their lives and then come in when they felt too old and fast forward until they became the age they wanted to be again? This idea was incredibly fascinating. What type of a world that would be... you'd never know how old anyone really was. She brought herself back to the facts of the seminar. This jar, was small. Maybe there was no way to make bigger ones. Were they created in the first place? With spells and enchantments? Or is it some kind of energy that already existed somehow and some clever person put it in a jar? Now the young Ravenclaw just had more questions than answered. She wanted to ask all of these things, but she thought everyone might think she was crazy.

She knew though if she didn't ask, she really would go crazy. She raised her hand and asked, "Sir, I have a lot of questions about this. And I don't mean to skip ahead, but - do bell jars come in bigger sizes? Could a person put their whole body in one? And how are they made? How-" She stopped herself. Maybe she'd best be quiet and ask the rest after the seminar.

Nigel sure did not want that to happen to him. It sounded horrible.

Always getting out of doing ACTUAL work she was. ariana looked at the glass ball thing the man had.. it sure did look weirrrdd. ariana didnt care though and she surely wasnt sticking ANY part of her body in that thing.. wait did mr. sherman put his head in their!? maybe he did!? did this aging process go along quickly? maybe he'd die in class!

deciding not to ask that she just sat around and listen to everyone else.. .. Ohhh so that's how it was used in the war.. hehe stupid deatheater.


Sherman beamed at all of the students, most of which knew exactly what had happened in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. They were too smart for him. He wondered if any of his questions would ever stump them. "Brilliant, children! You are all correct! An unnamed death eater accidentally stuck his head in the jar while pursuing Harry Potter and his friends in the Ministry." These students really knew their history inside and out, didn't they? "His head transformed into that of an infant's. It soon returned to it's previous proportions, but then began to repeat the time cycle again. Isn't it wonderful?" Grin.

What a mad fool they must have thought him, taking pleasure at this nonsense.

And here was a student who had an answer to his second question. What role did the jar play in the Battle? "A weapon? That's a very interesting thought, Miss Branxton," he complimented, sneaking a glance at her nametag. "Yes, when the Death Eater was incapacitated by the jar, it did serve as weapon. Well done!" He smiled at the young girl once more and proceeded to the next student.

"I suppose you could say that the jar's role in the battle was that it served as a distraction. Something that weakened the Deatheater by returning him to his youth." Since, you know, the man had asked what role the jar had played and not just what had happened and all.
"A distraction?" And here was the Prefect, the one with the shiny badge, who had awkward friends like his dear granddaughter. This girl was an insightful one. "Yes, perfect, Miss Hollingberry!" She received a beam just as the other girl.. what was her name, Branxton?.. had. "Everyone, did you all catch an earful of Prefect Hollingberry's answer? A distraction! The jar played the role of a distraction because it changed the purpose of the Death Eater, from pursuing Potter to attempting to pull away from the jar. Brilliant, young lady, brilliant!" Beam. Beam. Beam.

And now who was approaching him? Was this a youngin with a question? Wonderful. Sherman smiled broadly at the young girl. "Young lady, those are such thoughtful questions! Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to them." His beam turned into a frown rather quickly. "You see, after the other significant events that took place that night, no one bothered to tell about the poor Death Eater and his head. His tale has been left untold." He stared at the child, deep in thought. "I'm afraid I don't have the answers for you, dear."

-------------------------------------

With that being the last comment, Sherman began to teach again. "Alright. So, I'm assuming that you all are curious and, like good insightful children, you want an example of how my.. I mean, our, precious jar makes its magic!" He beamed affectionately at the crystal jar, his eyes filled with a great appreciation. "I have brought along a chicken egg to demonstrate the Bell jar's power over the time cycle. Shall we begin?" He bounced excitedly in his wheelchair, ready for the fun part of being a professor for a day.

As carefully as he could, he pulled the pearly white chicken egg out of his bag and lowered it into the jar. The old man pulled his hand out quickly, before it's effects turned on him. Sherman's eyes intently watched the egg as it began to transform.

After a second or two, the egg began to rise in the jar. His eyes followed the object upwards and closely observed the cracks appearing in the shell. swoon, the shell broke apart into multiple pieces and floated to the bottom of the jar as a baby chick appeared. The little thing began to chirp as it magnified in size. Soon, it had groen into a full sized hen. Sherman immediately shoved his hands into the jar, disrupting the process and pulling the hen out out of her captivity. "Observe the hen, children. See how it has gone from an unhatched egg to a full-sized chicken in a matter of minutes, or possibly seconds?" He beamed at all of them and held the chicken at arms length for them to see.
