"Ouch!" he exclaimed, pursing his lips and trying to look upwards. Silly creature on his head. Spike was giving him a free lift around the greenhouses, and all the pixie could do was pull on his hair. "Watch it, matey," he told seriously. "I'll swat you if you keep playing at that game." And he meant it. Yes he did.
Now to get his next toadstool cap. He glanced round the room, spying one that was free. There didn't seem to be any 'easy' option. Meh. He did spy Indy and another ickle-un struggling a bit though. He pulled out his wand.
"Immobulus!" he cried. "Immobulus!" Nothing happened. Fine. He change tactic. "Stupefy! Stupefy! Stu-"
Wandwork reeeeally wasn't his thing.
"That's. My. Sister." His eyes narrowed on the pesky pixie. "You don't mess with my sister." And with that, he gave up on the wand, pocketed it, and grabbed the pixie with both hands.
"Heh, you're not so clever now, are you?"
Kourt froze as a boy bounded over and grabbed a pixie with both hands. Whoa. That pixie would regret buzzing around her and Indy. But then again...she had a feeling that Professor Bentley wouldn't like it very much if the boy had strangled the creature.
Tossing a look backwards, she shuffled towards a toadstool with its cap still on. Watching the pixies warily, she reached out and twisted the cap off of the 'stool and whipped around, wand in hand just in case the annoying creatures were nearby. Nope. They seemed to be preoccupied with the other students.
She hurried towards the box where she had deposited her other caps. Now why were there pixies here? Frowning, she raised her wand to stun the creature floating nearby. That was one less to worry about. Kourt dropped her final cap into the box and then turned to face the chaos once more. Now, she could help anyone else who appeared to be in need of assistance. Plus, it would give her more practice.
