Professor Rae sighed as she opened her classroom once again. She was so distracted, she feared she wouldn't teach much of a class today. Still, she needed to try. She propped open the windows, letting some weak early spring sunlight in, and settled at her desk.

Sebastian sat in his chair. He wasn't going to share with anyone what this was that he was afraid of. He looked towards the door. For the second time, he had a frightened impulse to get up and walk out with a headache.

Tag poked Niky and Tails with his wand. "Let's start with wolves and dragons. Those have a face," he said darkly. He still wasn't sure how to make 'loss' more specific, and he didn't really want to tell them what he was truly scared of.

Tasha waited till she could catch the professor alone, and then approached her shyly. Completely humiliated over her fear. "I...I don't have a physical fear like some," She said as she looked up at the professor with tears in her eyes, "But I can't pinpoint the worst of my fears. I fear not knowing how something is going to end. I fear not being good enough. I fear dissappointing the only person I want to love me for who I am...." Tasha looked down at her feet, "My Mother who doesn't even know me and my dad are wizards, and we've had to hide it like a dirty little secret from her my entire life." She cried out sounding a bit hysterical. "I don't know how she's going to take it when I tell her. Will I ever, for once in my life, be loved by my mother? Thats what I fear!" Now sounding quite angry, Tasha looked up at her professor and said, " Now how are you going help me with that?"

Sana looked around the class silently to pair up with someone. Because her best friends were absent! And also not willing to opened up her fear to somebody! She thinks that fearing of Thunder might be funny to others!

Little Trooper · 10-04-2006, 02:03 PM

Amy just sat their seeing who didn't have a pair hoping she could find a group and join them and not have them think her fears were funny. She sat their looking around for a moment.

beck77 · 10-04-2006, 02:46 PM

beck looked around and noticed that amy was not paired up with anyone. "Would you mind if we worked together?" beck asked shyly

Little Trooper · 10-04-2006, 03:10 PM

"That would be great" Amy replied to beck

Deeps saw one of her friends Sana trying to find a partner and to be a surprise for her,she hissed in her ears"do you mind if we work together?".

beck77 · 10-04-2006, 08:17 PM

Beck took a deep breath, "So Amy do you want to go first, or should I?"

Little Trooper · 10-04-2006, 08:56 PM

Amy replied "I would feel more confortable if you went first. If you don't mind" Amy said she still wasn't comfortable with telling people her fears, and thought if someone else went first it would help her.

Rae put her hand on the girl's shoulder. "I'm sure you're selling yourself and your mother short, and I wish that I could counsel you on this matter. Unfortunately, I don't know the situation well enough to respond. What I do know is that when we get to the heart of the lesson, you don't want to be surprised by your greatest fear. Concentrate as best you can."

She turned to her desk as it shifted slightly beneath her. "Well... I think we're almost ready to move on. My desk is growing impatient with me."

Kay's attention was drawn to Rae's desk. That can't be . . . we already tackled those a few terms ago and she had me freaked out over nothing. She raised an eyebrow and looked at the professor. This class is ridiculous and I have no clue as to why I'm sitting here in the first place. I should pull a Lee and leave this so-called defensive class. But she didn't - Kay remained seated but silent because she knew she needed to regain the trust of those who witnessed her mental meltdown after an extensive studying marathon a few weeks ago.

"Ok, I am really afraid of burning to death. That is number one on my list of things not to do." Beck admitted. "Go ahead Amy, now it's your turn."

Little Trooper · 10-05-2006, 02:35 PM

amy sat their for a minute then replied "I have two things i'm really afraid of and they are needles and fire" amy replied to beck hopeing not to sound like a child on the last one

beck77 · 10-05-2006, 02:42 PM

Beck replied "I totally agree about the fire, except when roasting marshmellows over one to make smores, but I don't get the needles. Oh, you mean like to get a shot, not to sew." slaps self on forehead, "I understand that one to."

"Maybe that's how we can get rid of the fire, by pictureing ourselves roasting marshmellows over one, but that's not really funny so I don't know if it will work."

Little Trooper · 10-05-2006, 02:44 PM

"We could try it. Or we could picture the fire being put out and screaming." Amy suggested."ya its a shot type needle." she added "but lets think for a minute how we both can make fire funny" she said with a

beck77 · 10-05-2006, 02:49 PM

"Maybe like the witch in Wizard of Oz, we could show water being thrown on it and it screaming "i'm melting i'm melting, in a tiny little voice."

Little Trooper · 10-05-2006, 02:51 PM

"that sounds like a great idea. I think that would work"

beck77 · 10-05-2006, 02:58 PM

"Well, that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. So what do we do now?" beck asked amy.

Little Trooper · 10-05-2006, 02:59 PM

"that is a very good question" amy replied "maybe tell the teacher we are done and have figured it out?" amy said with a quetional look on her face.

beck77 · 10-05-2006, 03:04 PM

"Um, ok, but u do it, i'm to big a chicken." she replied.

Little Trooper · 10-05-2006, 03:09 PM

"Okay" amy said

Amy went up to the teacher and said "We have figured out how to defeat are fears. Do we need to write it down for you?" amy asked hoping that asking questions was okay and that she had done the right thing

Sana said no preblem at all and said, " I'm glad I got you as my pair Deeps. You know what's my world's worst fear? It's thunder. Don't think me crazy please. Now you go on with yours."

Cassirin · 10-07-2006, 03:07 AM

Rae smiled. "No, you don't have to write it down. You can return to your seats. You all can," she waited for them to sit before gesturing to the drawer. "I did have a boggart for us to play with, but I think perhaps I should let you go. Can anyone tell me what a boggart is?"
