SPOILER!!: Cris

Okay, so she wasn't a total failure after all. Well, that was good. Norah nodded and gave Cris a thumbs up before turning to face her cloud. Clear her mind? After trying the spell soooo many times clearing her mind didn't really seem as easy as it should've been, but it was worth a shot. Taking a deep and calming breath, she attempted to rid herself of the frustration clouding her mind. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out. She wasn't sure if she was clearing her mind or just getting dizzy, so Norah opened her eyes and figured it was about time to try the spell before she fainted or something.

Staring hard at the little white cloud, she imagined it growing and darkening, releasing a flurry of snow she could dance and play in. C'mon cloud, let it snow! With another deep breath Norah said "Stiricidium Nubila!" and gave her wand a good counter-clockwise swirl. Snow! Cold! Sledding! C'mon cloud! And it began to expand until the cloud was at least three times the size of her head, darkening to a steely grey. A single snowflake fell, followed by another, and then entire flurries of snow began to fall thickly from her newly transfigured cloud. AHA! SHE DID IT! She stepped underneath the cloud and let the snowflakes brush her face, grinning widely. The cold never bothered her, anyway.

The snow stopped before she instructed it to, but at least it had snowed so she figured that was a good accomplishment either way. Brushing snowflakes from her curls Norah walked back to where Cris was standing and gave him a tight hug around the middle. She stepped back quickly, though, because EW COOTIES. But he had helped her ~~finally~~ accomplish the spell, so she beamed at him and said "Thanks so much!" YAWN. Was spell casting always this tiring?

He remained silent at Norah ended the spell and then he smiled at her. "Sometimes, some spells are harder to cast than others. Remember Professor Bellaire did say this one would be hard to cast. You did really good," Cris smiled encouragingly down at her. "I did notice from your facial expression that you were either feeling frustrated or angry when you cast that spell. That may have affected your concentration. When you cast a spell, you need to clear your mind of emotions and thought, and just focus on the spell you are about to cast," Cris explained to Norah, how he was taught to cast spells. "Close your eyes and try to empty your mind. Then picture a storm cloud producing snow. Keep focusing on that image as you try casting the spell again," Cris suggested to his young friend. "Go ahead, try casting the spell again," he coaxed her. Okay, so she wasn't a total failure after all. Well, that was good. Norah nodded and gave Cris a thumbs up before turning to face her cloud.
