Jessica walked inside aand occupied a seat. She was less nervous than she had been for the Arithmancy Final. She eyed the containers with interest. What could they be there for?

After hearing the Professor, she set to work, slightly nervous - Who wouldn't be if they told you something could be fatal if it went wrong? Lighting a cosy little fire underneath her cauldron, she poured in a handsome quantity of water and, for a second, watched it bubbling and frothing. Then she turned to her assortment of ingredients and with the help of a sharp knife, cut all of them into fine lines. She was a little sweaty by the end she wa finished with this, but after wiping her hands on her sleeves, she turned to the water again. It was now boiling and she carefully added the earth-based ingredient threads to it. She swirled it to the left for precisely 2 minutes and then let it sit for 40 seconds. After that, she added the water-element and the air-element while steadily swirling the water to the left till it turned a not exactly nice nice shade of green.

She then tthe fire-based element and added it, thankful that it was the last ingredient. She le tthe water sit again until the green started to turn blueish and had a transparency tint to it. She was sure everything was going fine till now and wa glad of it. Herbology wasn't exactly her best subject.

Finally, sweating and even a bit tired, she poured some of the liquid into a tube and labelled it carefully. She jotted down her name on the label in red and placed it aside, hoping it had all gone perfectly. From what she knew, it had gone alright, but she wasn't sure. She sincerely hoped it was not fatal.
