AWESOME!

That was just her first thought and anyhow but then she saw it. And along with it she saw the faces of all her fellow mates. Most looked about ready to turn around and run right back out the door. The sign spoke volumes to Hady after what had happened last term and she was sure this was something to do with it...to teach them all to handle situations on their own.

Taking a deep breath Hady spotted a few friends as she walked further into the room her hand resting on her wand just in case. A few steps more brought her to stand beside Zeke whom she'd always choose to brave any situation with, her arm just barely brushing against his to show him she was there even as she whispered, "What's going on?"

What door? Was there ever a door? Are you really prepared to die?

The rustling thicket should draw your eyes over in time to see a Griffin patronus emerge. The voice of your transfiguration professor greets you in an ominious tone.

"Welcome to another transfiguration class. You don't know where I am but I am here watching you. It is time that I test just how much you have been learning and how much you have been reading." The voice paused and the patronus appeared to look them all over...just like Bellaire would.

Moments later little birds pooped down rolled paper at them with the instruction of what they were to do.

"You can either work on surviving this lesson with a team or you can go solo. The person who survives these course in the 'smartest way' wins. Note that smartest does not mean quickest, though you should bear in mind that this lesson is on survival of the fittest." Fittest minds..fittest bodies.

"I am watching...no cheating and no muggling your way out of this!"

ooc: When your characters are ready to start the actually obsticle course please label your tweet "phase 1..etc" so I may post the challenges and obstacles in response to your posts. Class rules apply for the most part so have fun and don't die! xox

Survival of the Fittest

Team. Definitely team.

If only to figuratively throw them under the bus if need be. So if they were attacked or something. She could get to safety while the others (preferably Zeke because he was the only non-Slytherin) could fight the creature.

Which was why she turned to her fellow third years (Brooklyn, Hady, Zeke), giving Brooklyn a quick glance and the other two a smile. "We should team up. It'll probably be easier that way." And you know, safer. For certain individuals.

So far only Cutty had seemed like he was inclined to enter the jungle, but then, Brooklyn wasn’t too surprised about that. Everyone else had just stayed standing wherever they’d stopped once they’d entered the classroom, and so had she. Not for any reason other than to just decide if it was worth continuing. She hadn’t known if there was going to be a real start to the lesson, or if it was more that they had to actually get TO the lesson. Not knowing was annoying, and so was not seeing any of her known older student associates to group up with in case that would come in useful. Aside from Lux, and Benny, but she still wasn’t entirely sure if they were as trustworthy as Ethan was. He’d help her out, unless he reverted back to how he’d been on the field trip. But then, she hadn’t seen him.

As someone had paused next to her, she’d glanced over in case it had been him, or even Hady, but instead it was Maggie. That was unexpected, but she returned the nod. Maybe they could work together. Slytherin solidarity, if not anything else. She’d still rather have Hady instead, yet she hadn’t seen their fellow dormmate. There was Zeke though, so she figured Hady wouldn’t be far behind. Hopefully. She didn’t want to deal with Maggie undiluted. She’d returned the Lion’s nod, too, only to nearly smile as moments later Hady had appeared beside him. A minute or so before the door had slammed, and she’d turned to glare at it. That was rude. But before she could work up too much disapproval, she heard Professor Bellaire’s voice and turned back to see the Patronus. Is this a theme this term or what?,s he wondered, listening as things were explained. Nope. Definitely working in a group, even if she had to put them in front of her at some point. Un less she got to attack things. That might help work off the frustration at being hot and sticky.

So she’d nodded as Maggie had made her suggestion. Whenever they wanted to go into the jungle…

It was a shame he didn't get far when a PATRONUS emerged, informing them of what was happening. This made more sense. MUCH more sense, and on top of that, he was thankful for the parchment too. FUN!

He was grinning, widely. THIS was going to be great. Awesome, even. Shrugging he nodded, "I'm cool with that, I'll have your backs," because that was the gentlemanly thing to do, right? He was itching to get started, even if he was going to rough it with a group of girls - not that they couldn't handle anything, he was sure they could, though he did sneak a side glance at Maggie. Was she going to be okay with this? Probably not, but he'd let Hady and Brooklyn comfort her when she broke down... she WOULD break down, that was his prediction, she was too girly to not be distressed by all of the dirt and bugs.

"Let's go, wands out," he instructed, taking the lead as he was eager to face these challenges.

He trudged deeper, cracking underfoot mingling with the sound of breathing and NATURE. That's what that sound was right? It had a kind of buzzing to it though... a definite buzzing.
