Back at her desk, she points her wand at the locket and says "Arithimos Revelio!" When Gaby comes to, she notices there are no numbers floating in the air. She must have done something wrong. Gaby points her wand at the locket and tries again. There is another period of silence. When Gaby comes to, she sees the numbers 28072569 floating in front of her. Well at least she got number to show up even if they are the wrong ones.

Professor Fox nodded politely to the latecomer. "Ah, Ms. Weasley. You almost have it. I wouldn't worry, a good amount of practice and you'll get better. Just like transfiguration, charms, and defense against the dark arts, arithmancy comes naturally easier to some people. However, hard work always produces a better arithmancer than sheer talent." He said, trying to encourage her. "In fact, I had to work twice as hard at arithmancy than I did at ancient runes. So, keep up the good work. If you have questions, let me know."
