| | |  Lesson Two: Packing Charm
Despite the upheaval due to the precipitous arrival of the Ministry Official, Professor Branxton was his usual uptight and perfectly proper self. Nothing less than the kidnapping of his children seemed to phase him. He opened the door to his classroom and walked toward the chalkboard.
He waved his wand to charm a grid onto the backboard, then began to write in his perfect hand:

Excelsior knew the other students had no idea what Monica had suffered, and he was going to make sure that they never found out. |

Clifford, who had been practicing the packing charm to no great success under the table finally peeked his head out. It seemed there were no immediate signs of more Earthcakes for the moment so he decided it safe to come out from his hiding place. Not only was it horribly uncomfortable sitting on the floor, but he had a feeling the spiders down there didn’t like the intrusion. They kept glaring at him with eight evil little eyes.
Gathering up his books he sat back on his stool, his hair full of cobwebs and dust. He grinned over at Excelsior and his sister. “I don’t think the spiders took too kindly to me disrupting them.” He explained. “Hopefully there’s no more Earthcakes.” And with that he turned back to the books in front of him, ready for a fresh attempt.

"That was pretty scary, Clifford!", Excelsior agreed. "I'm glad to see you're okay, too. Wow, this class has been really crazy today!"
Excelsior continued practicing the pack charm, concentrating mostly on the charm with the twist in the beginning. That seemed to be the neatest and most efficient charm. | |

Monica smiled at the other young Slytherin that had joined them. "She continued practicing her packing charm, frankly her puse had never been so organized.

Gwen glared at the bloody book that wouldn't pack to save her life. She was usually really good at Charms to but today was not the case. Glancing down at her notes, she tired to see if she had done something wrong. She wasn't sure how much more she could take from a spell the refused to work.
'I'll give it one more shot' she thought to herself as she stared at the evil book once again. "Pack." she demanded formily with the proper wand movemoments. Gwen was rather surpized when it actually worked for once.

Alycya was enjoying watching her books and robe fly into her bag, her robe folded, and her books in size and colour order. She heard an older student ask about combining this spell with others. That's a good idea she thought to herself, and she waited for Professor Braxton's answer.

Eva was enjoying the class but she had done everything mecanicly during the class... Just like if I was a robot.. but I am not.
She gave a step foward and once one more time:
"Pack".
Her books flew in to her bag. | |

She grinned as she noticed he was having a bit of trouble and nodded towards the mess around him. "You need some help there?" She asked. Tag rolled his eyes. "Some of these first years don't know what they're getting themselves into," he said. "You would think after blowing themselves up or shattering a glass pane window, they'd mellow out a little. Maybe the elves should cut back on serving treacle tarts at lunch."
He scratched his head and shrugged embarrassedly at the quills all over the desk and floor. "You have headaches, I prefer manual packing. . . we all have our weaknesses." Tag flicked his wand. A brown quill flew like a dart into the book by his bag, making a twanggg. "Hey. . . if you're sick, you should go lay down. I can't believe you even came back to class."

Celestina arranged all her school bag contents on her desk. Three books, massive amounts of crumpled parchment, very few notes, bits of broken quills, a working self-inking quill, a regular quill, two bottles of ink, a wad of rubber bands (who knew why) a shiny metal ball that jingled when shook and Stacy the pygmy puff.
Stacy hummed unhappily on the desk. If he had visible eyes, he'd be fixing them on Celestina right now with the most impetuous look he could muster.
"Relax, Stacy! It's going to work out fine. The spell is simple enough and if anything were to happen to you Beast Boy here will fix you right up," she spoke to the pink hair ball, jabbing a thumb at Tag's direction.
Picking up her wand she swung her arm (too hard and too quickly) in a sweeping motion while muttering the incantation. Her wand flew out of her hand and towards the direction of some unfortunate Slytherins. Her wand landed on the nearest desk with a clank and soon her items followed. The red-headed Gryffindor let out a yelp and lunged herself atop Stacy, keeping him safe. Her school supplies, however---continued to soar.

Ari chuckled, then stopped when the pounding became a bit too much. "That's why I don't eat treacle tart, I'll stick with normal foods thanks." She replied shaking her head slightly. "I was never like that during my first year; I was too busy making friends and studying." She added grinning.
She watched as he flicked his wand, and watched as his quill flew into his bag . "Well, that's one way of doing it." She said, "And these aren't normal headaches, I get them when something like that..." she nodded towards the repaired windows, "happens. I hate being an empath sometimes." she muttered sighing as she swept her wand across her desk, giving it a flick at the end. Her parchment rolled itself halfway before shoving itself nito her bag. "I'm fine though really. I'll lie down once class is over." she said, smiling at ihs concern.

Tag ducked as a bottle of ink, a silver ball, and a textbook flew by his head, then continued nonplussed, as if he were quite accustomed to doing so.
"I think I was too terrified to do anything my first year," he replied. "I was too busy trying my hardest not to be noticed. My sisters told me all about wedgies." He had managed to make it through the year with only one swirly. After that, he'd been quite determined to be able to run faster than any of the Slytherin sixth-years. Ticking them off by mouthing off or blowing up their windows had never been on his list.
Tag bent down and picked up one of Bucky's quills, which was now dented on the tip. He twirled it around expertly in his fingers. "What's an empath?," he queried. "Do they have a pill for that?"

Once the students seem to get the hang of the charm, Professor Branxton dismissed the class. No homework this week.
