"Agreed," she said without hesitation. Who knows what the owner of that cry would do? She didn't want to know at all. "Let's do that tree?" Like, that medium-sized one really far from this which they had started on. The effort was wasted, but she wasn't going to keep cutting down a crying tree. "C'mon, Apollo," the Slytherin called out for her winged horse, and softly chanted the Ehwaz galdr again for more energy.
A bowtruckle? Ah, they'd learned about that tiny creature before. "That's probably why I can't see it." It was tiny and camouflaged well with the tree bark. Had they kept on cutting down the creature's tree, Vivian could imagine being attacked by a pair of walking twigs... and even that seemed a little funny. "We meant no harm, Mr. Bowtruckle! We're very sorry." They'd just go find another tree to cut down, which didn't seem so pleasant for a tree dweller to hear. LOL.
"I'll start with this one," the blonde said once they had moved as far away as possible from the bowtruckle abode. Taking her wand out this time, Vivian sent Severing Charms at the base of the tree. "Diffindo... Diffindo... Diffindo...." She kept going on until about half of it was cut. The Slytherin smiled at her progress. "I did half... You should finish it up." Vivian gave an encouraging smile and nod towards to Gryffindor. And here's to hoping there weren't any more bowtruckle armies to stop them.
After the run in with the bowtruckle, the two had found another tree that was hopefully free of any magical creatures. Olivia kept on dying the tree that Vivian was cutting just in case there was something else there. It didn't seem like it. She watched Vivian cut the tree to almost halfway there. When her partner took a step back, Olivia nodded and stepped forward, readying her wand. "
Diffindo," she said paired with the wand movement and repeated it over and over and over again until the tree was ready to go. And then the tree fell! Yes! They had done the first part. Now they had to transport the tree back to the barn.
"
Now what's the best way to transport this tree back? We could attach it to the horses and have them fly it back or maybe we could shrink it and then bring it back to its full size or something else.... what do you think?" asked Olivia as she glanced at Vivian.
