She walked into the room where tea cups were flying past her and she quickly had to duck before getting hit in the head by one of them. She took out her wand and did her best at saying, "Aresto Momentum!" Before it could come back and it her in the head. The tea cup slowed down and she was thankful for that. What was next? Oh right, turn it back into a bird. The Homorphus Charm would clear that bit up. Briony pointed her wand back at the slowing tea cup and thought as hard as she could of changing the cup back into a bird. It suddenly transformed into a canary right before her eyes. Satisfied with herself, she walked forward to the table where the potion was.
The potion was an orange and she thought about how to fix this. This was probably a shrinking solution. Looks like someone added one to many rat spleens. She decided that it was going to need 3 more sliced caterpillars and a handful of daisy roots. She went to work, slicing the caterpillars and added them to the potion. Then she went to chopping the daisy roots very carefully. She added the ingredients and it went from it's orange to an acid green. Yes! It had worked. Time for it's final test.
On the table she saw a stack of quills. Briony found a vial and put some of the Shrinking Solution into it, making sure not to spill it, or else the whole table may shrink. Once the potion went into the vial, she took a quill and stuck it in, watching the big quill shrink down to a very tiny quill. She smiled and set it down on the table.
Task two was complete. Oh dear. Maybe the light was shining on the potion in a weird way...she seemed to think it was orange instead of yellow! "Uh oh...that's not the correct way to fix the potion. Try again?" he said with a smile, waving his wand and watching as the potion was cleared out and replaced by a yellow liquid once more.

Lifting her wand she said, "Finite"
Throwing a half glance at the man, hoping this time she had got the spell right.
The canary DID transform to its normal shape once more, but a few seconds later, a pop was heard and it was a teacup once more.
"Maybe another spell? That one doesn't seem strong enough..." he muttered.

"Oh, that makes more sense," she said more to herself than to Wes as she grabbed a vial of leech juice from the table and set to work fixing the potion. She splashed a small amount of the leech juice into the cauldron and stirred clockwise for two minutes, let the concoction sit for two minutes, and stirred counterclockwise for one minute. Then, she dashed some more leech juice onto the mixture and repeated the process.
After the third application of leech juice, the potion finally turned an acidic green color. She removed the stirring rod again before setting aside one of the quills and dropping two drops of the new potion onto it with a small dropper. After a moment, the quill began to slowly shrink.
She was almost there except...she wasn't waiting long enough in between the adding of the leech juice. The potion was green for a few moments before turning yellow once more. "I think you may need to review the instructions just one more time," he said with an encouraging smile.

The little bird sat on his finger, trilling and warbling with happiness. Malachi stroked the little bird's chest with his finger gently. "That's better, isn't it?" The bird took flight, apparently enjoying the chance to fly properly.
Malachi put his wand away carefully made his way around the various obstacles towards the cauldron. Looking into it he saw the potion was yellow. After taking a tentative sniff he was convinced that it was shrinking solution. He began to look for the leech juice. Finding it, he uncorked the bottle and added one drop to the potion. It turned a pale green. He waited five minutes and added another drop. The potion turned a brighter green, but it still wasn't the acid green that it needed to be. After another five minutes, he added one more drop of leech juice to the potion and it turn acid green.
Using his wand, Malachi conjured a pipette and drew a sample of the Shrinking solution into it. He pulled one of the feathers towards him and dropped a little of the solution onto it. The feather began to shrink. Malachi smiled a little with satisfaction.
"Oooooh, your potion looks nice," Wes said, admiring his work from across the room. He looked up at the canary however and frowned. "But that little guy is still flying around just a BIT too fast..." he said. The poor little bird looked like it had just had five giant cups of espresso.

Rolling her her sleeves, Jade reached for her wand and cast Finite. Nothing appeared to happen, but it was worth a try she reasoned to herself as she set her sights on the canaries above. It would be a task to get to them with the puff toys in her way. Think girl, think. Looking to some of toys in her way, she pointed her wand and cast Diminuendo. Quickly, the toys returned to their original size. Stepping around over them, she made her way across the room and looked above her. Aiming her wand upward, she cast Aresto Momentum and watched as the canaries above her slowed down. That wasn't all that difficult she thought as she cast Homorphus Charm. That charm had always given her trouble in her young but luck for her, she was able to get her non-verbal charms perfected in the last few years.
Smiling to herself, she made her way to the end of the room as a canary landed on her shoulder. Giving the bird a smile and light pet, she read the notecard and then looked to the cauldron. Potions was once her favourite subject and she felt she would be able to achieve the needed result. Noticing the yellow color of the potion, she thought back to all she remembered and smiled. Yes, she would need leech juice. Finding the bottle of leech juice, she slowly added a dash and turned her attention to the carnary on her shoulder. "You do look rather happy to not have teacups for wings, don't you?" she laughed as she waited. She couldn't add more juice for five minutes and she knew that just that dash was not going to fix it. After the initial five minutes, she glanced back to the potion. Still a yellow colour, just as she thought. Uncorking the bottle again, she added another dash and waited another five minutes.
After repeating the steps another three or four times, she noticed the potion was now a green colour. But the real question now, was if it would work? Picking up a quill, she carefully dipped the quill into the potion and pulled it back out. Raising the quill up to her eye level, she watched the tip start to shrink down slowly. Question answered.
Another employee who wanted to fix all of his objects for him. Hehe. Wes grinned at the girl. "Well done! You may proceed," he said, pointing her in the direction of the door.

She saw one that might work.....it was non-verbal. Oh boy, Alyssa wasn't good with those, spells out loud worked so much better than the ones in her head...okay here she goes she prayed it worked. Homorphus Alyssa whispered in her head and then opened her eyes and saw that the canary was indeed turned backed into a tea cup with a flower print. "I'm done now!" Alyssa told to head.
"There you go!" Wes said with a broad smile. "You can go on now."

He listened to the speech and was actually rather interested because this was in the field that he liked. He liked charms and fixing objects that were not working right. It was rather cool.
He looked around the room and saw that there were canaries turned into teacups, giant pygmy puff toys, and a cauldron of potion that hadn't been brewed properly.
Right, he was going to deal with a canary teacup.
He took out his wand and thought of what he would use to deal with it. He had an idea because he had dealt with things like this before.
"Aresto Momentum," he said as he pointed the wand at one of the birds. It slowed down, which would make it easier to deal with the thing. Then he used the trusted Homorphus Charm to turn the thing back to its usual form. And that was that.
Now he stepped over to the cauldron and looked at the yellow potion. Before he could fix anything, he would have to identify the thing. And it was good that he was a Division Head, because it meant that he would be able to do it.
It was a Shrinking Solution.
He knew this because that potion turned a yellow if the daisy roots weren't chopped correctly.
So he had to fix that now.
He grabbed the leech juice, and looking at the clock added a dash. Then he waited 5 minutes before adding another one. He kept doing that until the potion was green like it was supposed to be.
Now he was almost done.
He picked up a quill and placed it in the solution carefully, making sure not to get it on himself. When he pulled the quill back out, it had shrunk.
He was done now, and he just needed to wait to be passed on to the next Challenge.
Wes' mouth dropped open in surprise. Daniel McDean, doing WORK? And...OUTSTANDING work at that? Oh Merlin. Pigs must have learned to fly!
"WOW. Nice work Dan!" Wes exclaimed with a grin. He knew he had hired that guy for a reason! "You can go on."
