Loud, blaring music can be heard coming from the open Transfiguration classroom. It's beckoning you to enter....?
Shaw, dressed in a long alligator skin cloak, has seated himself in a desk at the back of the room. The desk is turned so that he can see everyone that enters and no one will ever be at his back. He's removed his hat and his head shines a little from the incoming sunlight. The rest of the room is typical: desks in rows, chalkboard, books, dust.
No directions are given, no friendly smiles. Enter if you're up for learning a little something something from Shaw. But I wouldn't interrupt until the song was over if I were you...
Did you just lose something? The GAME? Sorry... 'Justin Bieber, he is the man!' U mad, Felton!?
'Right so we need a spell for a helmet... Do you think 'Galea' will work?' Rose asked Rosemary. She saw a group of Gryffindors at the other end of the classroom and thought 'Wait, do all Gryffindors work together here?'

Rosemary gently grasped Rose's hand and gave a reassuring squeeze, "He can't be that mad otherwise he'd be in St Mungo's!" She reassured as she slowly cast her spell which she hoped would work, "Protegamur Verto!"
She didn't have a clue if it was right so hoped and prayed as she cast it onto one of her pencils.

'Right, I guess so.....' Rose still felt uneasy though. 'Woah! It worked! Hey, lets see what this does! Galea!' Rose did a weird hand movement and hoped for the best!

Rosemary smiled happily, "Wow!" She then looked at Rose, "You've only said Helmet there... Add Verto at the end so that I works."
'OK!' Rose said happily 'Galea Verto!' Rose said and hoped for the best. 'Hey, it worked!' Rose grinned 'Would you like to join us Ember?'
Ember stood next to rose and tapped her on the shoulder. "Transfiguration is the bomb, potions, not soooo. that is one nasty nasty teacher." Ember grinned and sat on the edge of the desk. "sooooo hows my twin this fine lesson."

Errrrrrrmmmmm....
Jamie checked the blackboard quickly to see what else was written next to the green team's side. "We need a first aid kit." That was indeed a random one, but useful, he imagined. And the more times he looked over at that chainsaw, the better a first aid kit sounded right now. The third year flicked through his textbook but only found the first of three words...
"Primus... is first." Maybe if they just made it up.. Primus aidus kitus?? With a bit of wand movement, that would work a treat, riiiiight? Jamie looked to the girl to see if she had anything to add. Possibly the next two words.

'What you call fine I call terrifying!' Rose said 'Did you see that chainsaw! He was like 'Mrrrmrrmrrmrrmmrrrrr' and I'm like 'Oh, no!' but apart from that I'm finally starting to get it!' Rose smiled 'I don't get potions either, but Matilda is brilliant at it! Anyway we're trying to find spells to turn these things into other things!'

Rosemary nodded, "Now we only have armour in our colour though I still don't fully get why he's used colours and not our House names, They're not hard to forget?!"

'What do you mean?' Rose probably didn't catch all of the sentence and sometimes was just bad at putting the words together!

Rosmeary smiled, her Scottish Accent had came out so it was probably hard to make out, "Sorry... Now we only have to transfigure something into armour...."

'Oh, OK! How about' Rose racked her brain 'Arma Verto?'

'As a Slytherin girl told me horribly, you can't turn things into food, sorry.' Rose said 'Although once I got over the initial shock of the chainsaw even I have to admit it was quite awesome! But I think this is one dude that we shouldn't mess with!'

Rose suddenly felt more like a Gryffindor with Ember around 'Hey, Yeah, can I borrow it too!?' Rose paused 'Wait, what are we gonna do with it?' Rose didn't care as long as it was AWESOME!

Ember laughed. She was strangley hyper. " i wonder why did the sorting hat sort me in ravenclaw there is not a brain in my head, ooooh more reason for the chainsaw."

"I know right, it just makes me jump for joy, hey i jsut realised something. shhhhawww. shain sawwww. shaww, sawwww ahhahahahhaha." Ember was loving this class, best so far.

Hmmm, tricky. "Try Medicina Primum Auxilium Verto. A bit wordy but it sounds like it could work. Do you have anything I can try it on?" Admittedly the actual transfiguration would be difficult but she could always give it a shot.

Woooah, words. Erm, something to try it on. Jamie patted his pockets, then reached for his bag. After pushing his hand away from layers of food and food wrappings, he brought out a small plate.
0_0 What was a plate doing in his bag?
Whatever. "Will this be all right?" The third year put it on the table and slid it closer to the girl. Now he would sit and gaze as she attempted the spell. Of course she would do it first. Jamie was too afraid to, but he wouldn't admit that, obviously. Whilst he was just sitting there, he added the long spell to his notes, too.

Seeing Kurumi work on the spell, she thought of one, "would swishing and flicking the wand work as a wand movement?" oh sure, maybe.
"I think we could use that," Kurumi nodded jotting it down. Matching that with one of the spells on her parchment was an entirely different matter however.

He pulled up a seat rightto Patroclus side and looked over his shoulder to what Kurumi was writing.
He didn't know a thing about latin - other than that it was really old and according to his muggle English teacher was supposed to be a dead language.
Which meant he had no desire to learn it.
"How about we try something ending in -ifors?" he suggested. They already knew spells that ended that way... so that meant it had a higher probability of working... right?
He snatched the younger student's dictionary out of Patroclus's hand.
"So.. like contegifors for a shield..." he said. He then tossed the dictionary back on the table for someone else to use. He'd contributed. And that was enough latin for him for one day.
"I'll add those to our Latin word bank," Kurumi said acknowledging his contribution to the discussion. Looking up at the older Gryffindor, Kurumi's cheeks flushed. "Don't suppose you know what that suffix stands for, do you?"
SPOILER!!: Big Brother Lion Patroclus <3

"Everyone has great ideas so far," he smiled nodded at all those who had offered up a suggestion, such as Kurumi, Selina, Zara Nika, and Tayla, but he also smiled at the girls that hadn't suggested something.
"Kurumi seeing as though you have an awesome list of notes already do you want to have the task of Lion Scribe?" he asked on his precious little Lion Cub, he knew he could trust her.
"Zara, for the time being I think we might save the practice run until we have something that couldn't get hurt to try our spells on!" he smiled in reaction to the girls offer to be the test-dumbie, he didn't want to vanish anyones clothes, not in a room full of students!
"Shaw!" he called to the Man of the Hour, "Could we perhaps have a dumbie in Gryffindor Robes to try out our spells on!?" You never know something may work!
"So," he turned his attention back to the group, "We need wand movements, Rosemary, Christina, Heather and Janet, do you have any ideas of a good wand movement?" he asked of the few girls who seemed a little lost.
Then turning to Kurumi he sumarised some of the spells they had already suggested, "So we have had; 'Verto Galea', 'Verto Pilleus', 'Verto Parma', 'Verto Armatus', 'Gignatis Ferrum', 'Corpus Armatura', 'Corpus Armatura Cassida', 'Cambrair Scutum' and 'Contego' but we need more!"
More they needed, MORE!
Blushing a bit, Kurumi gave Patroclus a quick salute before returning to her parchment to write down the spells that the prefect had just mentioned. The Lion Scribe...hm...that DID have a rather nice ring to it.
"What do the spells you just mentioned do?" Kurumi said scratching her head with the tip of her quill. If she was going to be the Scribe, she needed to be as thorough as possible. Checking her Latin notes at the top of her parchment, Kurumi tried her best guess as everything, but quickly gave up knowing that she had a Latin expert in Selina sitting right next to her, and raised her eyebrow at being on Team Shaw.
The man frightened her...chainsaw and all...
After having completed her notes up to that point, she passed them to Patroclus. "Does that look about right?" she asked looking up at him for confirmation as well as to her right at Selina.
