| ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ Claimed by Bits ❤️ ~ Queen of Typos ❄ Magical Mosh Pit ❄ Still standing beside Hady while keeping a sharp eye out for any signs out trouble, Dhruv said to their colleague, “Off to a good start so far.” They fell into silence for a moment as the observation continued. “A few of them are thinking out of the box,’’ the DADA professor noted, strong approval in his voice. This was what it was all about: to prepare the students to use their initiative with the information taught to them for real life situations. SPOILER!!: Hope! Quote:

Hope did not have to wait long. A second after she waded into the pond, the Japanese water demon sprang from the waters. It stood there, seemingly leering at Hope. It was calculating the best time to spring at her. Surely her blood was as tasty as other humans?
How will hope defeat the kappa? Whatever the plan, she needed to move quickly! This beast would not take long to spring into action! SPOILER!!: Brandon! Quote:

Brandon shifted from foot to foot and listened to the instructions, feeling cheerful but a little uneasy at the same time. His favorite creatures were thestrals... abraxans... kneazles... nothing dangerous, like acromantulas or kappas or dark creatures or venomous snakes. But Professor Khanna said it was a small obstacle course, and also that he could do it, and he trusted them. So... he waited patiently for his turn.
When it was time, Brandon approached the murky water carefully, drawing his wand and picking up a small rock. He tossed the rock into the water to see what creatures may be in store. Did he have to walk THROUGH the water? Perhaps he could distract whatever was in the pool so he could run through really quickly. That... or deal with the challenge head-on (he preferred the first idea, honestly).
That was a smart move.
The kappa slowly emerged from the water. Its head bobbed above it though the rest of its body remained hidden. But the demon wasted no time, it began gliding towards Brandon, its body still hidden. At this rate, it didn’t matter if Brandon waded through the water or not; the kappa would catch a hold of him quite easily. SPOILER!!: Maria! Quote:

What else is there that likes dark and confined places?" Maria took Professor Khanna's word of advice to heart. She would need to have her head on straight if she wanted to pass all the obstacles in the mini course. She did though think that balance and speed could be important factors too. When it was time line up after the intro she took her place in the line after Kion. She gave her boyfriend the 5 minute head start, and then she was off on the signal from Professor Khanna. As she approached the murky pond Maria took out her wand from it's holster, and waited for the eerily still water to come to life. They weren't supposed to walk out into the water to get to the next obstacle right?
Excellent question!
It didn’t matter whether you ventured into the pool or not. Either action will result in the kappa making an appearance, which it did as it had sensed human presence lurking closer. Beady eyes stared eerily at Maria and in the blink of an eye, it began heading for the Hufflepuff at rapid speed. |
