Aurora had done a lot research on boggarts at her last school, and they used a slightly different spell but maybe her information would be useful. She pulled out her old purple and gold notebook and looked it up, then raised her hand and spoke.
"Professor, A boggart is a shape-shifter that takes on the form of whatever a person fears the most. It generally likes to hide in dark, enclosed places, such as in cupboards, under beds, or in hollow trees. Due to its tendency to hide in relatively small spaces, it is likely that a boggart's natural form is fairly small, about the size of a feret. However, no concrete reference has yet been made regarding its true appearance or size. Furthermore, to overcome a Boggart it's always best to have company when you're dealing with a boggart. With two or more people areound, he becomes confused.
But the thing that really finishes a boggart is laughter. By casting the charm (preposterous- from her old school)Riddikulus, the boggart will be repelled or destroyed. The charm is simple, yet it requires force of mind. You need to force it to assume a shape that you find amusing. The charm forces the Boggart to assume the shape of what you are imagining; if you have the force of mind to keep the ridiculous image in your mind in the face of what you most fear, the Boggart will become laughable, and laughing at it will destroy it.

Aurora was hoping that she wouldnt pull a boggart out today. She didnt want the whole class seeing her biggest fear........nope dont even think about it, Aurora she thought to herself.
