They were moving on and AJ was on the same page as the rest of the class. That sure was a good feeling. She listened closely to the next batch of instructions because one little mishap and your potion would be vanished. That had not happened to her, and she wasn't planning on that happening to her now. Nope.

Fluxweed leaves were up. AJ cut them into three pieces and added them into her cauldron. The lion picked up her wooden stick and cleaned it with a quick "Scourgify." Man, that spell came in handy. Checking the board a few times to make sure she would be stirring in the correct direction, she dipped her spoon into the mix.

Clockwise, then counter clockwise. It was hard to get her arm to keep up with that motion because her brain was working against her. Apparently it wanted to go the easy route, but that was wrong, brain! Once she got to fourteen stirs she stopped and eyed her potion. It definitely looked muddy. Please don't smell. Please don't smell. A quick whiff eased her mind. No smelly potion here.

Boomslang skin was added into her potion, and the next thing she had to do was the waiting game. This time she had to wait five whole minutes. Ugh. Patience was not her thing. Five seconds was okay, but five minutes. AJ checked the time and tapped her foot while her hand held up her head. When the minutes FINALLY passed by she added the larvae.

Just like magic her muddy potion was clean and clear. Wicked. If one didn't know anybody it could pass as water. It never ceased to amaze her how cool potions could be.
