So he wanted them to just clear their potions away? Just like that? Kate looked down at her work from earlier, thinking about how she had probably one minute tops to get it all packed up and put away. Kate got everything put away in its rightful place before turning her attention back to the lesson and moving to stand behind her desk.

It was a good thing she got up when she did, too, because the next thing she knew, her desk was a wooden dummy. She looked at it just bobbing there, like a limp baby doll or something. Now she had to cast on it, but first, she wanted to do a bit of practicing. "Manus Invisibilis," she said, saying the incantation. "Manus Invisibilis." The wand movement didn't seem so easy, though. Kate twisted to the right and thrusted forward. It turned out to be a lot easier than she thought, so with another look at the dummy, she decided to get started.
