She backed up as fast as she could but not fast enough to avoid one vicious spiky vine that smacked her across the cheek again. This one really stang and when she touched her face with her glove and looked at it, it was stained with her blood.
"Looks like I'm going to need some of the Dittany potion that my grandmother gave me this year" she told her team mates. Reaching into her pocket, she pulled out a vial, looked at the label, before removing it's cap and drinking from it. The healing potion immediately began to take effect and the pain stopped. She hoped that she wouldn't have any permanent scarring.
"Could we take a breather before I grab them again? We may need two of us to hold onto the vines. Ella were you able to grab any pods at all? " Alyssa asked the younger Hufflepuff.

She frowned at Alyssa who was now bleeding. "That doesn't look so good, Alyssa. Does it hurt?" She was relieved to find out Alyssa had something she could take for it.
Had she gotten any pods after all of that? Ella held up the greenish grapefruit shaped thing with a look of disgust. She was surprised to see she too had a little gash along her arm, probably from when she ripped her arm out of the hole. She stood, holding it out for the others to look at. "Did we need to get more than one?" She asked, hoping the answer was no. She was also going to ask about stunning the crazy plant but as they were all a safe distance away now, it didn't seem necessary.
And that was perhaps one of the most lethal and vicious encounter she ever had in her whole life. Alright, she was just bluffing a bit. Not that lethal but dangerous indeed. She kinda stood rooted to the spot as her team mates fought the lashing vines of the Snargaluff. All she could do was help stop some vines so that the two could move out as Ella had grabbed the pod.
A few scratches weren't that avoidable. But that was fine with her, given the circumstances, she was also planning to really go to the Hospital Wing and ask the Healer for some medicine. As the two of them ran to a safe distance, Beezus pointed her wand at the plant just in case it would get violent. But thankfully, it did not. That meant they were safe.
"Guess we didn't need to stun it." She told her group mates.
SPOILER!!: ^__^

Maybe we can get another one or two more. Then we can let the other students take a turn. What do you guys think?" She asked her team mates.

Like freakishly strong and dangerous. Alyssa's cheek and Ella's arm were proof of that. Ella stood up, dusting off her robes. She could not even believe she had just done that, reaching into the hole of a beastly plant that was trying to attack her and her teammates. And to think her mom wouldn't even let her help with the rose bushes because of the thorns! Ella looked back to Alyssa who was still speaking to them. "Yeah, what's one more..." she said with a shrug, looking in Beatrice's direction. "You ready to rumble with this-this thing?" Ella said, glancing back at the plant.
Just then..the two planned on getting another pod. Beezus thought for a while. Professor Bentley told them to only get one right? Before they could get closer to the plant again, she paced ahead of the two. "
Waiiiiiiiiit! Professor Bentley said to only get A pod." she looked at the Professor who was also busy helping their other classmates.
"And that means one. One would be enough for one group I suppose. I mean, there are still many groups around so its fine if we'd only have one." she told them. Granted there were still some groups there who were still waiting in line and didn't have their turn yet.
