As much as Erin did not like pygmy puffs, they weren't rodents. They didn't have sharp teeth. Though, she would admit, when stuck into a tough situation on what to choose between rodents and pygmy puffs, she would gladly choose the former. They were adorable, don't they?

And for a wrong try, those pygmy puffs would lose their hair. Least, Erin wouldn't be using herself for that rainbow stuffs. Erin looked at the students who'd brought their pygmy puffs with them. Most unfortunate people. She wouldn't risk Posy - the cat - to suffer from hair loss even if that's just temporary. She was just too adorable to be bald. With that, Erin walked towards the box and get herself one, anything would do. They'd still be losing their hair anyway.

See her after class?

Theodore was not sure whether to be excited or terrified. He just blinked at her.

When she said 'rodents', did she mean the pygmy puffs? Theodore didn't know but he didn't have one anyway. Like HIM of all people would own a furry, girly, creepy little thing like a pygmy puff. No.

He very warily moved from his stance and picked up a puff from the box. HAIR LOSS?

"The pygmy puffs get hair loss? Or WE do?"

Cos he cared nothing for the 'rodents'. But Theo's luscious locks were precious.

Evil Vampire professorrrrr
 

lsdkgfdfjgf!

There was a shriek..a horrible shriek as Medea held up the Pygmy puff towards Sophia. The woman backed all the way up to the trunk and plastered herself against it to keep as far away from the creature as possible.

The look of horror and disgust was unmistakable. "Merlin's Beard Medea!" She put her hand where her heart was dramatically. "The reason you are here is so I don't have to touch those rats." She was so flustered, but she managed to compose herself in order to answer Theo.

"The rodents, not you..carry on."

Right, she brushed back her hair a bit and straightened her robe and continued waiting for the rest of the class to prepare for the rest of the lesson.

Hmmm a rainbow professor. It looked pretty cool...too bad it was on the evil professor and that made Hannah not really like it. Yes she was still stuck on the first lesson and the experience she had. Oh well. She would have to get over it.

Hannah was momentarily appalled by the fact that the professor said that would be getting a rodent. Hannah was not pleased with working with a rodent. She was thinking about being defiant when she realized that the "rodent" was just a pygmy puff. Really? She had to fight the urge to not roll her eyes. She didn't of course...she knew this professor would blow her gasket.

She went to the box and picked out a puff. She turned to go back to her spot that she was STANDING at...not sitting. Ugh...some people had no home training. All of a sudden Hannah jumped because she heard this god awful scream and was sure they were under attack. She turned in the direction of the scream and had to hide her face. She was trying hard not to laugh at the professors response to the fluffy creature. Merlin's beard...the were the forrest. They were already on high alert. The last thing they needed was a screaming professor.

Ooooooh! How lovely! Ella watched with a smile as Professor Bellaire shined with all the different colors of the rainbow. It was quite a pretty sight, especially in such a dark and dreary place. It also did a lot to help Professor Bellaire seem a little less scary. She should really wear rainbow colors more often, it suited her.

Wait...they were going to be testing this charm on their pygmy puffs?! Ella looked down at her pocket and hesitantly pulled Barnabus out. Possible hair loss? The second year studied Barny carefully, trying to imagine what he'd look like bald. YIKES. Bald WOULD NOT be a good look on him. She held him up in the palm of her hand and brought him close so she could whisper to him. "No worries, little guy. I'm not going to make you bald or anything...hopefully."

O_____O

Ella jumped up, shoving Barnabus back into her pocket when she heard the awful loud shriek. Merlin's Beard! Were they being attacked?! She looked around her with wide eyes, utterly confused as there didn't appear to be any dark creatures approaching them. Scratching her head, she searched the crowd looking for the awful shrieker...O___o Professor Bellaire? The second year was surprised that it was in fact their instructor who had yelped like that. And about a little pygmy puff. That was just plain silly. With a shrug she removed Barny again and waited for the next set of instructions.

*gigglesnort" rodents XD
 

Whoah.... talk about Technicolor Robes.

Vickers looked on, eying the Professor and what happened to her robes when she neared the tree. Pretty soon he figured it wasnt the tree itself but the moonlight upon it that brought the robes to do what it just did. Plus the spell of course, the one they were just talking about earlier. Amusing he must say, just wondering what the practical uses of it because he's an objectives kinda guy.

A brow went up when the Professor started talking about rodents. What rodents? Has she been filching borrowing Roro's treats? Just then Romanos came into view and tried to hand Bellaire what looks to him was a pygmy puff. And the Charms Maven shrieked that almighty shriek....

*blink*

Well suffice it to say nobody should be gifting her a Pygmy Puff anytime soon....

He stood and neared the Romanos, giving her a polite smile before peering into the box, and randomly plucked one out for himself. In the dim light of the forest the pygmy puff looked like a dull blue, but as he tried angling it around in his hand he could tell it was of a brighter color. Despite his challenges with Hendrix from their COMC class last term he kinda felt bad about using the pygmy puffs as the apparent lab rats in this lesson. He'd better make sure he doesnt mess up too bad tonight.

Alyssa held on to Nerfball tightly. They were going to use their pets. She blinked a couple of times before slowly pulling Nerfball out of her jacket.

"Don't worry Nerfball, Professor Romanos will protect you."Alyssa reassured her shivering Pygmy Puff. "And she will replace whatever Professor Bellaire removes." Alyssa looked at Professor Romanos

Laura stared back at the Professor for a couple of minutes but in the end she decided to get back at her another way taking out her Pygmy Puff no way was she doing the spell if it could lose all it's hair she decided that she was going to race it against Nigel and Isaac, she nudged them both and whispered to them. "Mine is faster than yours." and with that she sat on the floor and held the Pygmy Puff in her arms waiting to see if they would take the challange.

Nigel knew right away where Laura was going with this. But he also knew that his rat/puff was the fastest here. So he whispered back "Oh yeah, well mine is faster than both of yours together."

Nigel knew his rat/puff would totally beat Lauras and Issacs by a mile.

Did she just say hers was faster then his? Now, wait he never...looking up at the professor, he shook his head "I don' think so, no way." he replied back quietly, remaining where he was holding his pygmy puff. His eyes were still on the professor who didn't look too happy at the moment. "Mine's totally faster." he whispered under his breath.

Hey he could act like he was paying attention but...perhaps race his as well...right?

Laura looked at them both and rolled her eyes. "Mine is total the fasted ever." Laura giggled seriously they had no chance against hers. "Nigel come and sit down here and then Isaac come and sit at the other side and then we can watch mine beat both yours by a mile." Laura couldn't wait to see hers win. "Or Isaac do you know yours is the slowest and that's why you want to stand up?"

Justin just snickered to himself... The bloody professor was scared of Pygmy Puffs... Merlin's beard. This lesson just kept getting funnier by the moment.... " It's just a little puff, Professor... Nothing to get all out of sorts about.... " he managed through his chuckle.

Laura was dreaming when she think hers is the fastest. Nigel already knew his was by far. It would be a complete shock if Issac won. But please as if that would ever happen. But now they had to prove who's was fastest.

So Nigel walked with his rat/puff over to where Laura wanted him to sit and sat down with his puff/rat ready to race. He then whispered "Are you guys ready?"

Meh, if he sat down to race his pygmy puff he'd be caught for sure! His eyes were still following the professor "Don' need te sit te beat yers." he said quietly, moving as if he was just sort of wandering waiting for the professors instructions. He was now on the other side of Laura, but remained standing where he was at.

"I'm ready." he whispered to the both of them.

Laura looked at Isaac, the idiot was going to stand up, he was such a scary-cat, well Laura knew it was so he could get away quickly if the Professor came and well Laura wasn't scared of this Professor one bit and then another Hufflepuff spoke and Laura had to hide her giggled.

Well anyway back to the important thing, Laura sorted out her skirt and then put the pygmy puff down are you guys ready?" Laura asked them, she was certain hers would beat theirs hands down she had no idea why Nigel thought his was the best.

Nigel was ready as he would ever be. Even if he did get detention for this. It would be worth it. So he put is rat/puff down next to Laura's and whispered to her and Issac "Lets do this on the count of three, ok"

He was supposed to be the smart, bright, older one. Why in merlin's name was he considering this? Squatting down beside Laura, he put his pygmy puff on the ground next to the other two, holding her in place. "Yep, 1..." Ok, he was going into this and had a bad feeling about possible consequences. Hey, he had to have some fun away from the schoolwork.

Right?

Laura looked at the other two and smiled. "Two." Laura was getting excited. "Three." And with that she let her pygmy puff this was going to be awesome and then she put a fake voice on. "And There off, lets see how they do they are racing to the trees and back again." Laura couldn't help but giggled at what she was saying. "How's it looking at your end Nigel?" Okay so Nigel was sat next to her but she didn't care.

Nigel was ready and when Laura said three. He let his puff go as fast as he could. "OK sounds good, to the trees and back". His puff was going alright it was just trailing Lauras by a couple inches. But Laura was still in first and Nigel did not care where Isaac's was.

When Laura asked where his puff was he said "It's just behind yours and ready to take the lead when yours slows down."

This race was getting intense!

Letting go of his when Laura said three he just stared at the pygmy puff. It just sat there! He'd got a broken one, had to have! "How are ye getting them te go???" he whispered to the other two. Watching as his curled up in a ball, he shook his head "She won' move!" Looking up as the other two were almost to the tree, "Ye tricked me." Yep they had to have, his pygmy puff wouldn't do it on purpose would it?
