Louisa's jaw dropped open. THIRTY POINTS? As in… the number thirty? Wow. This teacher was not to be messed with. The girl made a decision to keep her mouth shut and eyes glued to the board during the lesson – she didn't want to lost any points now that she was a fourth year student, that'd be so childish. When the students went on with their names, Louisa waited until it was her turn. "
Hello. I'm Louisa Carter. Fourth year." Did that sound like she was getting into a new school? Meh. Whatever, the professor might as well start the lesson that wasn't going to be an easy one for the Carter girl.
And speaking of Carters, was that Gryffindor the Carter? WHO LOST HIS HOUSE POINTS? That was…pure shame. Louisa glared at the boy for a minute before going back to look at the board. His face was carved into her mind; he was the one to save Adam at the Rubbish Bins, he was the one who shared her last name, and he was the first one to lose points in the first five minutes of a class. Really… he was nothing like her. At all. Interesting.

Raising her hand Louisa spoke, "
I believe dark magic is called on anything that was found or invented to cause harm." She paused for a few seconds realizing the flaw in her answer, and elaborated, "
Regular spells can cause harm but that'd be unintentional. Dark magic is mainly used to harm." Was she repeating herself? Gulp. "
Dark magic, however, doesn't always resemble evil. It can be used for good - like the Reductor spell which could be used for self defense." Was that a good answer? Meh, it was all she got.
