Zara alternated practicing the correct wand movement and saying the incantation aloud for a few more minutes until her attention was brought back to Professor Myers. Giving him all her attention, she nodded as she listened to all the things. They NEEDED to have their gloves on and she again glanced down at her hands, checking to make absolutely sure they were on securely and were not going anywhere any time soon!

Gloves, Check!

Reaching for her wand, in the corner of her eyesight she noticed Derf and his hug with Thereos. It made her giggle a little. Refocusing on her task, she stood in front of the bucket and pointed at the bucket. First, she quietly recited the incantation to herself as she rotated her wrist. She was a bit nervous about getting it right! Practising it a few more times, she finally felt ready and took a deep breath. Casting with a firm and confident voice, she rotated her wrist at the bucket. "CHAW-DEN-SIS"

Looking at her bucket, she examined it with her eyes for a moment before she took it with her to the cave. The moment she entered the cave, her eyes grew larger. All the bushes were glowing and she stared in awe for a moment before stepping forward toward one. It glowed brightly and she admire it for a bit before reaching forward with her gloved hands. "Hello, Mr or Mrs fire seed bush. I’m Zara and I hope it’s okay if I pluck some of your seeds." she voiced quietly to the bush. She didn’t want to offend the bush and even if the bush didn’t understand her, she felt better asking. With much care, she plucked one seed from the bush and placed the seed in her charmed bucket.

Turning back to the bush, she nodded to it. "I only need two more and that is all. Thank you for allow me to have them," she smiled as she reached for another seed with care. She could feel the warmth through her gloves as she set the second seed in the bucket. Reaching for the last seed, she bowed her head slightly to the bush. "Thank you again for allow me to pluck these seed. It is greatly appreciated." Her parents always taught her to be polite to all things and she felt it was right to gave the bush that respect as well. “You glow so pretty. All of you are pretty,” she added with a small giggle as she stepped away.
