Time for the next question and this time it was going to be more specified to their actual method of Belomancy. The Professor raised her hand to get their attention once again, since the outside winter wonderland surrounding them tended to distract little ones, and spoke sending her foggy breath out over their heads. "The type of Belomancy we are going to perform today involves actually shooting arrows like Miss Hollingberry mentioned but instead of shooting them to see the distance, we will be shooting at various targets related to our questions." That was the divining part but they would get to that later.
The Divination Professor whispered an incantation under her breath and about thirty bows and the same amount of quivers filled with arrows floated towards them from behing a frozen bush. The objects came to a stop by her feet. "So everyone please come and grab both a bow and a quiver of arrows. I will be showing you all how to properly shoot." Not everyone would know how obviously. She took a step back to allow them to pick up the things. "There are to be NO shots fired until I instruct you to do so, is that clear?" An accidental arrow through somebody wouldn't be the worst thing in the world or terribly hard for the Healer to fixed but that didn't mean it wouldn't be any less traumatic.
"Now when you get your equipment, please space out and be about 4 feet apart from your classmates." She grabbed her stuff while they moved and picked up her bow. "First we need to find the right way to hold the bow. You take the wooden part in one hand, preferably your non-wand hand and take your index and pointer fingers on your other hand to and touch it to your bow string. Stay in this position and I will walk around and correct you as needed."
Kat smirked when Elwood said she got it right. Those that mean more house points? 'Cause if it did, Kat would not hesitate to grab the opportunity. Her house, Slytherin, is in need of those lovely house points and Kat is one of those students who are doing their best in getting those house points. She loves her House that much. Be happy, Snakes.
Archery? Are they learning archery? KATNISS EVERDEEN, THE GIRL ON FIRE!!! Ok, Kat. The blonde went in front to get the bow and arrows and then retreated back to her previous place. Kat then estimated 4 feet away from the other students. There are many other ways to die and getting hit by an arrow isn't so fascinating. Positioning herself with the bow, she took the wooden part of it with her left hand, her
nonwand hand. The other hand's index and pointer fingers touching the string of the bow. Now, that was correct right?
