Post 5 (Total time: 100 minutes/ 1 hour, 40 minutes) ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
And so the waiting commenced.
Adi stared at the plant blankly for about five minutes before getting bored. For another five minutes, he looked around the classroom watching his classmates work. But then he got bored of that too because like him, most of them were also waiting.
The Hufflepuff took one more look at his plant and his watch. Only ten minutes had passed and the plant showed no signs of improvement. Hmph. His will and intent had been present when he poured that purple potion and chanted so hopefully it wouldn't take long to heal.
He flicked through his Runes text book to pass the time. It was like that saying "killing two birds with one stone". While he waited, he could improve his Ancient Runes knowledge a bit.
.................
An hour later found Adi resting his head on the desk, almost fully dozed off. Already he was having a dream about flying on a Hippogriff but something had gone wrong and he was off of the Griff's back, falling...
falling...
falling...
Adi sat up suddenly, blinking rapidly as he looked around. Oh! He hadn't actually been tumbling through the air. He was in the Runes classroom. Everything came rushing back to him as he eyed his plant.
Hey! Spots were vanishing! There were certainly less than what the plant had started out with. Woot! So far seventy minutes had elapsed. The boy focused totally on the plant. Slowly but surely it was being healed.
.................
Half an hour later, ALLLLLL the spots were gone. Awesomeeee! It only took a hundred minutes. Not bad at all.
