After everyone had had breakfast and... survived it, really, with not too much dirt on them, Botros took off his chef hat and respectfully put it on the breakfast bar as if it was the sorting hat's kin.

"Kids and staff," he called out, clapping his big two hands to gain their attention. "Let's play a game, shall we? We're all fueled now and have some sugar to burn." He beamed and gestured for them to follow him in the direction of the four bushes. "See those four bushes? They're all messy and untamed, our very groundskeeper and Charms professor set them up for you for this game." Botros clapped his hand again.

"Now! We're going to have a competition between all four houses. See that circular field just behind those bushes?" The empty area that had random items thrown on the ground? Yes, that. "We want to see which house has the best teamwork, and which house's mascot is the fastest. Before we do that, each house need to work together to make a topiary of their own house mascot with the help of their Head of House and prefects, of course. Then we'll start the race! Go!" He looked at professor Beatrice to bring him a chair and come sit with him while they watched the kids work on this first task...? Yes? Where was his young friend?
