"Oh that is definitely not nice at all. I've been called a slimeball once too." Mmhmm, and look where that got that Gryffindork dog. Pffft. "Well, it's a pleasure to meet you...Kappa." That made nooo indication if it was a girl or boy. Aaand, she was done 'trying'. The sharp teeth, and the hair, and the general way she was feeling a bit creeped out by it was enough for her.

*queue the drop of the cucumber* Might as well leave it there. She sure wasn't going to use it for anything. Unless it was to mess with Destiny.

Smiling at the Kappa, Evelyn slowly moved away before going back to her desk. Others could distract it.



Hearing the next question however, Evelyn couldn't help but think it was almost like deja vu. Didn't he ask that before? In a different lesson? Or was that someone else that asked that....

"A dark creature is something that harms something or someone for no particular reason. Just because it can I suppose." she said after raising her hand. "I think that most all dark creatures are magical in one way or another too. They are just....evil." Evil things. Sometimes cute and awesome, but still evil.

She nodded."The would also have to be very intellegent which would go along with the muggle saying 'don't judge a book by its cover'. In this case it would be 'don't judge the creature by it's actions' and the Kappas are really dark then this Kappa is a very cunning and intelligent creature indeed."

"Well more than two cucumbers would fill this one up," Patroclus replied, finiding himself to be speaking in the way of the Kappa, "and I am glad you liked my Cucumber, would you care for another?!"

Patroclus traced in the air the enlongated oval, and with clear diction spoke the incantation, "Curcubita Intaglio" and a perfect 'Patroclus' cucumber appeared!

"Sir, if there was a horde of Kappa coming at you, could you use Engorgio on your cucumber so to feed all the Kappa's or would they like one each?"

The boy listened to the Professor's new question and tack an answer onto the end of his question, "Sir a Dark Creature, is one that finds pleasure in the harming of others, their actions all stem from an evil undercurrent, rather that a need for food or survival."

"The most conspicuous point is that they aim to maim or hurt. It isn't a way to get food or sustain themselves. They actively seek to harm and cause damage to people and things, without a cause. "

Alex hesistantly stated suddering slightly, she was not getting close to the Kappa, "However Dark Creatures doesn't always mean evil." Alex added glancing at Evelyn for that, were Werewolves evil?.. well some yes but not all!

"Dark creatures are those who are dangerous and those who may harm and hurt us. They can be described as evil. Although it depends on how you react to them I mean just like the kappa, if you're polite it won't really harm you.." she said as she lowered her hand.

"Because. They. Eat. People. Dark creatures eat people. They're mean. They're bullies." Ellie answered.

Aaannndd she kept GLARING at the Kappa. No, he was NEVER going to be out of her sight. Not until he was back in Japan...


"Right. Most of you understand that dark creatures are dangerous. As the textbook definition says: They are magical in nature, they often do not have a complete life cycle the way a typical animal would but exist simply as a physical extension of an evil intention and they seek actively to harm, often for no other reason than that's what they do."

Truebridge watched the Kappa for a moment.

"However, in some cases, particularly in the case of the Kappa, there are some benefits to keeping one around. What can a Kappa do for you?"
