DADA Lesson 3
 

Upon entering the classroom you will find that all the desks and chairs have been vanished from the room leaving a very large open space. Marcus, is purchased on the only desk in the room his legs swinging back and forth.

"Welcome your third DADA lesson, please come in and put your bags against the wall and take your place in the centre of the room. For the moment leave your wands in their holsters."

Oooooh DADA. Cam didn't know when he'd actually need it but eh, he knew it'd prove useful one day. Besides, learning hexes were... dangerous--but the gooooood kind of dangerous (to him). He walked into the classroom. Eh? No desks? Where would they sit?! He couldn't stand aaaalll day, ya know. "Haayy professah," he waved and walked to the center of the chairless classroom. He checked if his wand was in its holster. Yeeeerrrp.

Which classroom this had been originally (that is to say, just a few months ago), Kiri couldn't even remember - in the course of this term's flooding, the classrooms and offices had been moved around as if the whole castle was being shaken by some sort of mad titan - but it was empty except for one table at the opposite end. Professor Lawson was sitting on it with an air of quiet contentment about him.

"Hello, Professor," said Kiri, and she walked off to one side to deposit her bag on the ground as instructed. Having done so, she wandered back into the middle of the room, wondering what to do with herself until the lesson started.

Varius entered the DADA classroom where things went from magical to completely insane. This was the class that he attempted to explain to some poor Slytherin that grindylows were french and where he tied the knot with a certain Mr Morgan.

Well! There would be no marriages today! That was for sure.

He placed his bag against the wall as instructed and made his way to the center of the room. "Hello Professsorrrr," he said airily as if he had been induced with high amounts of morphine -- which he hadn't, but who could really tell?

Chris Potter walked into the DADA classroom that was empty of all desks but the Professor's smiled. 'This must mean a practical lesson.' the prefect thought happily.

He left his bag against the wall with the door and walked forward to the center of the room joining his classmates in greating the teacher. "Good day Professor Lawson, Im ready for a lesson." he grinned.

She hadn't been going to DADA like she should have been but it had been hard to fit it into everything else she wanted to get done, so she was surprised that she could make this one.

She walked into the classroom and her eyes were drawn to Chris' she smiled and dropped her bag on the floor, leaning it against the wall with her foot. She practically skipped over to his side. She waved at him and then waved at William.

"Heya Cam. How ya doin?" Marcus replied with a cheery wave.

"Good day Kiri. Nice to see you outside of the water" he chuckled as she walked passed.

Marcus chuckled as Varius walked into the room. He remembered the last lesson where the kid pretended he was a french Grindylow. "Hello Varius."

"Good day to you Jack."

"Well you better be ready Chris. It's going to be action packed."

"I am doing well thank you Abby. How's yourself?"

Herminny entered the DADA classroom for her third class and her mouth dropped, there were no desks except the one in the middle the professor was sitting at. She heard the instruction to put her bag by the wall and did so and then said, "Hey professor Lawson, whats up with the practically empty classroom".

Em entered the classroom, "Good day, Professor" He greeted with a smile, instantly followed the instructions, put his bag to the side and walked towards the center of the room.

His wand hoster was a bit itchy, yet he knew it was needed at all times. Wonder what they might do that day...hmm.

"I am good thank you William. How are you today?"

Marcus raised his eyebrows at the Slytherin but said nothing.

"Hello Herminny. You will find out soon enough" he said with a grin. "Okay I'll give it another few minutes before we start."

"Good day Emiliano."

CHris smiled brightly and said "Can't wait, sir." he then winked as Paris joined by his side.

Victoria walked into her favourite lesson, "Hey Professor Lawson!" she smiled at him as she put her bag against the wall and waited with the others.

Demetria walked into a very open classroom. "Hello, professor. How are you?" she asked putting her bags on the other side of the room.

Ehem...today Emiliano was curious, eager to know what they were doing. "Any hints on what we are doing today, Professor Lawson?" He asked him, grin spread through his face. Obvious sign of the inquistive feeling he was suddenly going into.

Walking into DADA, Jule waved at her professor.

"Hello Professor." she said as she set her bag down and leaned against the wall.

"I am well Sir, thank you for asking." He replied before waving back at Paris and grinning. He didn't even bother asking what the lesson was about, he knew it'd be awesome either way.

"Good day Vicotria, Demetria and Jule." Marcus clapped his hands together and jumped off the desk. "Right as you may have guessed with the lack of furniture in the room, we are going to be practicing some dueling today. Now before you all draw your wands and start hexing the daylights out of each other there are a few things we need to go over first."

He moved forward a few steps and stood in front of the students. "So who here can tell me when entering into a formal duel what is the first thing we do?"

"Don't we bow to our opponents?" Jule said, not too sure of herself.

Kiri raised her hand. "I think that, in a formal duel, the opponents bow to each other. To show their respect."

She smiled at William.

Paris raised her hand. "You draw your wand and bow to each other," she said.

Formal Duel. Wonder...wonder and answer! He raised his hand first, then spoke: "Well, if the person accepts the challenge of a duel, there must be set place for the event, during which the first thing to do is to bow to one another before starting any fight..." He answered.
