With only one item left to find, Sierra moved to her third and final bucket--hopefully, it was the one that contained her egg. If not, that meant she had to go back to the other two she'd already dug in and dig some more. Ewww. Hopefully she'd find her egg soon, and her poo-digging days would be behind her for good.

...exactly why had the professor chosen poo for them to dig through? Was it really necessarily, or could they have used pudding on all three? Three buckets of pudding would have been really nice--loads better than buckets of poo.

Sierra submerged her hand into the bucket and felt around for a bit. She needed to be careful, she remembered, to not break her egg. If she got this far in the assignment and ended up cracking her egg, she would not be a very happy camper. If she found another tooth, too, she wouldn't very happy then either. Animals could be disgusting sometimes. Did one of them lose a tooth and then try and eat it, or something?!

...ew.

Sierra's face lit up when she thought her hand grazed across a small, oval-sized object. She closed her hand around the object, got a good hold on it, and and then withdrew her hand.

...only to come out with nothing at all. Whaa?! Had that been her egg?! Slippery little sucker!!!

Savannah threw away the thing aside and started ramaging through the goat poop again. Bezoar...Bezoar...is a stone found inside a goat. Savannah knows what a stone feels like, but the problem is...the goat poop feels like the same.

Ewww...ewww...ewww...ewww...

Suddently, the chocolate pudding doesn't seem so delicious after all.

Come on...come on...

Savannah was trying to find something that feels stone-ish. Not poop-ish...but stone-ish. Everytime Savannah felt something that she thought was the bezoar, she would squeeze it really hard. So far, all of them she tried were goat poop...for sure, so she set them on the other side. This made it just a tiny bit easier to decide. But that doesn't help the smell.

The feeling of earning house points for Slytherin..the glory feeling was doing flip flops in her stomach. Come on!

Hey! This one didn't smash...this one is pure hard! The bezoar!

She pulled her hands out...

Oh...yes! It's the bezoar!!

"I FOUND THE BEZOAR!" Savannah cried with happiness. YESSSSS! Five points for Slytherin!

Sierra had been digging in poo for far longer than she ever wanted to do in one lifetime. She wasn't sure how much time had passed since they'd started the activity, but just one second was long enough for Sierra. She'd tried not to not think too hard about the fact that the buckets were filled with poo, but each time she looked down into the buckets and saw the disgusting mixture of brown nastiness, her stomach just turned that much more.

The sooner she found her egg, though, the sooner this would all be over! With that thought in mind, Sierra plunged her hand back into the bucket. She just wanted to find that small, oval-shaped object again. She was sure it had been her egg, only both her gloves and the egg had been too slippery. A few seconds later, her hands grazed across the oval-shaped object once again, an she made a grab for it. This time, she had a good hold of it!

She withdrew her hand and waited as the poo (or pudding) dripped off the object. It was--her egg, yes! She started to smile, but then stopped as the egg started slipping from her grasp. Her eyes grew wide as she watched the egg bounce around in her hands. "Get still, you idiot egg!" she silently fussed. Almost as if the egg itself could hear her thoughts, it grew still in her hands. Yes, she'd done it! She'd found both her items.

What now? Chocolate pudding? Yes...

Savannah stared sadly at the pudding. She just got her hands in the goat dropping, and now sticking them into the delicious chocolate pudding??? What a waste!

What is the meaning of this class anyways? What are you learning? Not to stick your hands into animal droppings? Or do stick your hands into animal droppings?

Savannah put her hands once again into one of the bucket, hoping that's it's the one with the chocolate puddings inside. 'Cause the smell have ruined the only chance of telling each ones apart since they look so alike.

She closed her eyes and held her head high. Poor chocolate pudding...now it's mixed with goat manure. There's nothing in here! Just some smushy chocolate! Savannah stared sadly upon the chocolate pudding. What a waste. She pulled her hands out once again and sighed. She had earn five points for her house. And that's not bad. If she find the egg then that will be ten! Savannah smirked at the idea.

Savannah wiped her hands on her towel and planned to rest for a few minutes while she watched the other students working hard with their buckets.

Okay. Samira had found her egg. Woop-did-i-doo. But that wasn't enough. She needed to find that boazar! Five points for Slytherin!

The most logical place to find a boazar would be the the goat droppings, since it is found in the stomach of a goat.

She walked over to the droppings and plunged her hand in, not even caring about being grossed out anymore. She wanted to get this over with.

Feeling around-this is so gross-she felt something hard and stone-like. Could it be-?
Could she dare hope-?

"Yes!" she squealed. "Professor! Professor i found the boazar!"

Ohhhh Yeah! Five points for Slytherin! Oh, five points for Slytherin! What now Lions and Birds and Puffers?!

Erm. Ermm...

What?

After having placed the egg at the bottom of one of her green buckets, the girl frowned after watching them start to move around and...omg, what was filling up in it!? That didn't look sanitary. At all. Evelyn didn't mind a little dirt every now and then but this was a million times worse then dir-

...

Of course. Of COURSE the professor would want them to stick their hands in it. What was she trying to do? Make them gag? She...she was working on that slightly. Even if the stuff didn't smell or anything (or she was just too in shock that half her senses weren't working), it was extremely gross to look at. And to think, they had to touch that. Well NO! She wasn't going to touch ANY of it!

Though she wanted her egg back. So...she got some plastic gloves anyway. PFFFT.

Nika took her hand out of the poo bucket. So much for finding the egg. Nika was disgusted by the poo that was now dripping off her. She looked over at the next to buckets with a little gleam in her eye. She weighed the two remaining options "Goat poo or pudding, poo or pudding? Pudding of course!" Nika rubbed the remaining poo on the grass. Now to dig in the pudding.

Seeing that the outher were starting to finish up.Mikey moves to his last bucket ,placing the bucket of quivering brown mass in front of him he starts to scoop it out and let it sift through his fingers in to the outher 2 buckets until it was only 1/2 full ,pulling his wand out he places the tip milimeters from the surface of brown mass "Reducio"watching the mass shrink untill there is only a hand full left he reaches in and plucks the Bezoar out and set it aside with the his egg and the button

Alright. Which...which container had the egg in it? Ugh, why couldn't she have chosen three DIFFERENT color buckets instead of them being all green?

Coming back with the plastic glove things, which she found to be rather USELESS, the Slytherin stared at the three buckets in disgust, debating what to do. What was in that one container anyways? It didn't look like...droppings. Unless it was from some creature she didn't know about.

Okaaay. Erm...the weird bucket it was then. Don't worry little Rose Egg! You shall be saved! Just...just had to....

Ew. Ewww ew ew ew ewwwwwwwww.

Looking as if she was going to CRY, Evelyn turned her head away as she stuck her glove covered hand in the pudding bucket. Of course, she didn't KNOW it was pudding since she didn't eat the stuff in the first place, (and she would've freaked out if she knew there was chocolate in the room), but still, this was highly gross. Egg! Where are yooouuuu? Meeeehhh-

o_O

What...was that? WHAT WAS IT!? Grimacing, she pulled out her hand and took a peak at what she had grabbed. Well, it was hard to tell since it was covered in pudding, but with a few wipes with her other glove, she noticed it was her Rose Egg. OMG. There you are! Safe and sound now!

Nika looked down at the pudding filled bucket. It looked could've looked half appetizing if Nika hadn't just stuck her hand poo. Nika eyed the pudding but held her temptations. The pudding was callin her name,but it did look rather disgusting next to the poo. Nima reached into the warm pudding and felt her way around. Sadly all she found was a pebble. Nika was confused. Maybe she didn't looking into the poo carefully enough?

Luin looked down at her buckets and wrinkled her nose. Great. They get to go through poo now?? She glanced around at the other students, already digging through. She grimaced, well at least it's the last class of the term right now. She prepared herself mentally, closing her eyes for a moment and then started in on the goat droppings, seeing as they were a bit smaller than the other droppings, and she would probably end with the pudding.

...THIS was what they needed the egg and the buckets for?! Really?!

Merlin's beard.

At least the professor was nice enough to give them those long plastic gloves to wear. Vashti quickly rolled up the sleeves of her shirt, grabbed a pair of the gloves, and pulled them on. If only there was a big thing of plastic to cover her body too. She would feel pretty okay about all this then. Fortunately, she had also decided to pull her hair back into a ponytail before she'd come to class. Smart move, that. One less thing to worry about getting...messy.

She took a few seconds to stare at each of her three buckets, wondering if she might be able to tell which one had her egg in it just by looking at it. This, of course, was not successful. Sigh. Oh well.

Deciding to start with the bucket that was on her left, she took a deep breath then plunged her hand into the icky, gooey mess.

Luin looked around in the goat droppings for a few minutes, holding her head away as she did so. As she was looking in it, her fingers brushed up against something a little larger and harder. She moved her hand around in the droppings until she was able to get a firm grip on it. She then carefully started to pull her hand out, holding on to the object she had grabbed on to. As her hand was finally out, she looked at what she had. Hmmm...something shriveled, round. Oh! It is a bezoar! Awesome! She wiped off some of the poo and put it to the side, looking down at the other two buckets remaining.

This. Was. So. GROSS.

Vashti couldn't help making probably-weird faces as she felt around in the icky cow poo. Why couldn't they just summoned the egg out with magic or something? It would make so much more sense. Of course, that wouldn't help them learn about creatures, magical or not, but then again, what was she supposed to learn from this? That their poo was gross? She already knew that. Really, she did. Digging around in the poo to find some egg wasn't necessary.

She moved her arm and hand around in the stuff for a couple minutes, searching every inch of the bucket for that blasted egg. Finally, she decided there must not be anything in this one. That had simply been a waste of time. Uggghh.

Nika poached the pebble that she founf on the ground and inched closer to the poo filled bucket. Nika groaned loudly. Isn't putting my hand in here once enough?!? Nika placed her hand into the bucket. She was determined to find the egg in it next time. She felt around in the gooey substanse."Aha! The egg!" she held it over her head proudly. She almost dropped it, but thankfully she was able to save it from falling.

Too many things were happening at once. Not good for Destiny.

First, she turned to Cedric and the boy was smirking at her. It was like everyone knew smirks freaked her out and they kept doing it to her. Well, one day, ONE DAY Mr. Cedric Leone, she will find the thing he hates and do it to him!

Or she will just smash her egg over his head. That would be fun.

But, before she could, Professor Saylen was mentioning something about drinking coffee from a special kind of monkey..whaaaat?

Destiny was disgusted. Utterly (geddit..cows?) disgusted! She didn't bother answering the Professor. Too disgusted to talk! Sticking out her tongue in DISGUST, she placed her egg in one of GREEN buckets and watched in HORROR as..stuff was poured into the and then all moved around. Whaaaat was going on!?

She should really pay more attention.

She knew she was going to need gloves..even though she was SURE that one bucket was full of chocolate. She'd need a spoon for that one.

Luin chose her next bucket. Hm..the middle one, maybe i'll get lucky with this one. She crinkled her nose up again as she started to reach her hand inside the bucket. She made sure to keep her hair out of it and tried to feel her way around the bucket. She closed her eyes and felt something different, at least different than cow patties. She pulled it out aaaaand....it was a rock. Great, nothing special there. She stood back then and wondered if she should continue with that or go on to the last one.

Simon placed the marked egg in one of his buckets as directed and not long after had to watch as all three were filled with unknown brown substances and mixed. He tried his bes to follow the one he knew the egg to be in but it was hard especially since his three choosen buckets looked pretty much the same.

Great just great, he mused to himself as Professor Saylen asked them to try and find the egg now and retrieve whatever was inside the ones he looked in.

He absently sniffed the air to try and figure out what was in each but nothing was there and when he heard the responses from his classmates around him, he knew they werent all pleasant. Well he wasn't a Gryffindor for nothing. Looking over all three in front of him, he finally opted to start in the middle without gloves. The captain figuring it might be harder to feel what he was looking for and slowly started to sink his hand into the bucket's contents.

This next one had better have something in it. Using her currently clean gloved arm, Vashti let out a sigh before plunging her hand into the bucket on her right (filled apparently with goat poo? Ickyyy). She felt around as quickly, but hopefully thoroughly, as possible until...

Eh? What was that?

She touched the object again. Either it was a really solid piece of poo or she'd found something. Hopefully the latter.

Gently wrapping her hand around it, she started to pull it out...

Kurumi continued to dig through her bucket that she concluded to be filled with cow poop.She glaned at her remaining bucket and was glad that she had managed to leave to pudding filled bucket for last. Maybe she could ask Professor Saylen if she could take the bucket back with her to the castle and make some chocolate pudding cookies. She had just come up with the recipe last night and was eager to give it a try.

Kurumi gave herself a mental slap across the face - literally slapping herself would be a very bad idea. Having cow poop on her face did not seem like an appealing idea. Putting all cookie thoughts out of her mind for the time being, Kurumi returned her attention back to the bucket and her hand that was still submerged in poop.

Kurumi felt something round and hard at the bottom of the bucket and her eyes lite up with excitement. Had she found her egg? She sure hoped so so that should call herself done, take her bucket of pudding, and head back to the castle and call it a day.

Whatever is was, it was stuck to the bottom of the bucket. Kurumi tugged on it and felt it move a bit. She pulled on it even harder and felt it finally come lose. Now removing her hand from the bucket and examined her new object. It certainly wasn't an egg..it was far too red for that. Wait...was this a...crab apple?

That was really gross...really really gross...

Once Destiny got her gloves, she made it back to the table and stood in the same spot she was before. Well..she hoped it was the same spot. She didn't want someone to go and cry that she had stolen theirs.

She waited a few moments, making sure no one came over to her and when they didn't, she put the gloves on and pulled the first GREEN bucket she saw closer to herself. That..was not chocolate pudding. Oh no. She knew chocolate pudding and..she wondered if she could get someone the THINK it was.

Hehe.

But, that was an evil thought and pushing it aside for now, Destiny stuck her tongue out in DISGUST again and plopped her hand inside the bucket.

"I did this back at home once." she said to no one in particular. Whoever wanted to listen. "But I wasn't looking for an egg." They probably didn't want to know what she was looking for.

Now..where was her egg at!?

Nika placed the egg and the pebble near her, but enough distance away from her foot to prevent any unwanted accidents. She used the grass to wipe off some more poo from her hands. The grass didn't serve as an ideal towel,but it would have to do. Nika pulled the last bucket near her and took a deep breath before she looked into it. Ew! The smell was foul! She quickly turned away before she would gag. The fristie turned back to the bucket this time with her breath held. She stuck both hands in the goat dropping and searched in it. She felt something weird. She cupped her hand and pulled it out. It's a bezoar? Nika guessed it was a bezoar and put it down. She is done. All her items were found. Phew!

Nika took a few steps forward, but forgot that she had wiped poo on the grass. She stepped on it and down she went. Ew! Nika turned around and saw that it had added stains to her pants. Great, just great.

Not sure what she was supposed to do with the egg... - scrambled eggs poop flavour?... ugh why did she think that?! now she felt even sicker than she already had.

Her stomach churned.... oh no..........
Rushing away from the area, poop covered egg in hand Emily crouched down to the foor, her face in a bush... she didn't want anybody to see her vomiting... it would be gross, and nobody ever looked attractive whilst vomitting.

Urghh... urrrgghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! uuurrrrrggghhhhlll!!!!!..................
watery, fluid like substance came pouring out if her mouth, it tasted of bile.
Oh yes that would be right, she had skipped breakfast......................

After a few moments, she rejoined the group. She had managed to wash off the poop from her egg, so she felt slightly better.
But at the same time she still have one more bucket to check...

Why wouldn't it end!!!

Samira was done with her assignment, thus having nothing to do. She saw her friend Nika and walked over. Nika had poo stains all over her pants. Usually Samira would joke around with Nika, but right now, after digging around in poop, she was really not in the mood to joke.

"Hey Nika," she said sullenly. This class was definitely NOT her favorite...

Luin stood still looked down into the bucket with the cow dung, still deciding if she should try out that bucket again. She shrugged and decided to again, she really didn't do a very thorough job the first time. She then reaches down into the bucket again searching it thoroughly and finding nothing.
