Sophie heard carefully as Professor Lafay spoke and started giving instructions. She wrote everything down as quickly as she could.



Sophie was then about to fill her cauldron with water when she heard other students using some kind of spell to clean it up first. She had never used that spell, but she decided to try it out. Looking inside her cauldron, she pointed her wand at it. "Scourgify!" Sophie frowned as she didn't see any big differences in the cauldron. She wasn't sure if the spell hadn't worked or if her cauldron was already clean enough... or perhaps they weren't supposed to see the difference anyway. Oh well. She was still pointing her wand at her cauldron. "Aguamenti!" This spell she had already used a few times, so she was just fine with it. "Finite." There! She smiled and waited for the next instruction.
