Then an idea occurred to her and, as she wondered how easy a Kappa might be to fool, Hope backed up a little and turned away for a few seconds, just long enough to transfigure the sausage into a cucumber. Turning back, she eyed the Kappa (which looked uncomfortably closer) and hastily carved her name on the newly-made vegetable.

"Catch!" she called out, and lobbed the cucumber out into the lake in the kappa's general direction.

The object falling into the pond distracted the Kappa, especially since it smelt so green and earthy. It knew at once what that was. Cucumber! The water demon hastened after its next feast, leaving the path clear for Hope to rush onto the next obstacle.

In the meanwhile, the Kappa would devour the vegetable.

It's onto the next part of the obstacle course for you. Try not to be too surprised as you approach the tunnel and there's nothing at all there blocking your way. Good for you! Luck isn't on your side for too long as only a few feet into the tunnel a silver-green lizard of about four or so inches is scurrying back and forth right in front of you! What type of lizard is this? Why is it here? And just what will you be doing about it?

OOC: You've made it to part two of the course! Have fun xD

First, Brandon reached a hand out to try and tickle or pet the moke. Maybe that would convince it to shrink back down? If that didn't work, he planned to conjure or summon some plants for the moke to eat, and try to get it to move with food like a regular lizard. He hoped his plans would work! To be honest, he'd never seen or interacted with a moke before.

The moke didn't move at all. Not even a fraction of an inch. At least, not until Brandon reached out and touched it. That was when it leaped up into the air straight onto the Hufflepuff's arm and scampered its way onto the boys shoulder! This may not have been the reaction you wanted buuuuuuuut it was out of the way for now. So best hurry on along the rest of this part of the course before it tries to block your path once more!

OOC: Be quick and move on to the third part of the course where Ali will post for you hehe xD
