Default HoM: Lesson One

Another day, another History of Magic lesson. Stepping into the classroom not much has changed since the previous lessons. The open windows have allowed for some leaves to fly into various places in the classroom, not that Scabior would care enough to pick them up. That was a house elf’s job, or more specifically the nutjob caretaker’s.

The desks are arranged so that only two people are capable of sitting next to each other. A toy train placed on a circular track, strangely similar to another famous train sits between each pair of desks.

Up at the front of the classroom, Scabior is seated behind his desk instead of his usual stance of leaning against it. This is most likely because, placed smack in the middle of his desk is also a train on a track similar to the ones on each pair of desks. This train however is different from the others despite looking exactly the same. While the others all sit motionless on their tracks, the train on Scabior’s desk happens to be moving in a continuous motion around the track with a stream of gray smoke trailing behind as it.

“Hurry in, come on. Take your seats.” He would advise that they sit next to someone they would want to work with, but it was too much work.



Class Progression:
Question One: The Hogwarts Express
Question Two
Question Three
Question Four
Activity



OOC: Class will officially begin in, 81/2 hours. Please familiarize yourself with the updated classroom rules. Your characters can chat, dance, try to set the room on fire. Just remember Scabior is there, and SS and RPG rules apply. Class has officially started (i'll edit in whoever i've missed in this post)! Please no posts announcing late arrivals, as that will result in lost of points. If you want to join in, I encourage you to! Just act as though your character was there all along.

Alyssa paused to think trying to match the dates the train crashed with what happened that year. 2048. What happened in 2048? For the first time ever, Alyssa was stumped. She hadn't even born yet.

But then she remembered something Sierra had said about the snow storm which the Professor had corrected her. Something had happened to force it off the tracks. Alyssa decided to hazard a guess and so raised her hand.

"Professor could it be that the tracks had gotten icy because of the cold weather and when the train rounded the corner, it couldn't slow down fast enough and it ended up skipping the tracks and getting derailed?"

Alyssa shrugged. Well at least she tried even if her answer was most likely wrong.

Sophie smirked. Yeees, she smiiirked when Elliot was called up to the front of the classroom. Bwahahaha! The badger didn't even care if evil Elliot saw her smirking. Suppressing a chuckle, Sophie started copying down the list from the board.

She couldn't help but giggle when she noticed Theodore's answer was also there on the list. Professor Scabior did have sense of humor! That was cool! Sophie smiled and listened to him speaking and asking another question.

Hm... they mentioned a snow bank when the train stopped the second time? She raised her hand. "It was snowing in September?" That wasn't very... normal, was it? "Maybe it had something to do with the strange weather?" Why would it be snowing right after summer break? Weeeird...

The second time the train stopped, it actually crashed? Whoa. Penelope was glad that hadn't happened this time. Even if the sudden stop had technically made everyone inside it to crash into things. But what could have made it crash? Hmm... After a few moments of thought, her hand went into the air. "Did someone make it crash?" she asked/answered. That seemed possible. Why would a train just crash randomly?

As he scribbled down the list on the board he noticed the dates... doing a few number crunching on his parchment he realized it was exactly 30 years prior when the train malfunctioned the 2nd time, and 55 years from the first time. The first malfunction was well documented of course, the second one he didnt really know about. For all his family's connection to the railway system he wasnt want to peruse the archives for accidents.

Anotehr thing he scribbled down was the weather-- winter mustve come strong and early for snow to accumulate enough to cushion a derailed train. He heard Alyssa mention the icy tracks, which makes a whole lot of sense. Up goes the hand "Professor, was there any magical or mechanical trouble? Brakes failed or something?" He knew well enough that certain Muggle made machines-- even those retrofitted magically-- would start showing flaws during inclement weather.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Jory thought it was weird to have anything to do with the weather causing the train to crash so he took another path.

"Professor, could it have been a problem with the tracks? Perhaps somewhere along it was loose,''
he said, his hand in the air.

Hmmm....Cassia looked at what was written on the board and read the first couple of lines then got bored. Because you know HISTORY!

Then Professor Scabior's question and other students' answers. You know Cassia didn't know much about history actually her knowledge was poor in this department. Except for what her father tells her which by the way she always assumed were stories then they turned out to be true events. Nice of her father to trick her into listening to them.

However, she didn't have any idea about what caused the second break down so she tried to guess, "Um...probably the train just got used to breaking down." The second-year shrugged. Or you know it was a much more complicated reason.

West put his hand up. "It was Voldemortist. You know, Professor Lainey's boyfriend." Well. Something like that anyway.

Maybe Surya has to speak out his feelings now. It is of no use to sit in a classroom without joining in the discussion. He put up his hand, stood, cleared his voice and began, "Professor, I have read it somewhere that the train crash in the above mentioned year was not a naturally occurred incident but a planned one. Students had to walk from there all over to school by following the train tracks. They say that a "DARK MARK" was actually conjured and students were struck with fear on what was about to happen. I have even read that a professor named, Golden Luigi on that day has died who was with the students at that time. I strongly believe that Voldemortist was behind it."

HA. Two points! Blue gave a BEAM and a silent squeal. Because her answer that she thought was lame was right! Anyway...

Um um um. But she wasn't even ALIVE the two times it had crashed. How was she supposed to know? But the Slytherin prefect had mentioned a snow bank or something, so, Blue raised her hand. "Maybe the train got too cold to keep running and the engine froze?" They should've given it hot chocolate to warm it up.

Man.

She would LOVE a hot chocolate right now.

Eliza hadn’t realized the train had stopped several times during transit. It made her a little less comfortable when thinking about going home for the summer. “Maybe I should have my parents pick me up in Hogsmeade…” she pondered.

She wasn’t really sure what could’ve caused the second crash, as she didn’t really know the details surrounding it. She gave it a shot anyway though, “Maybe the train crashed the second time because someone cursed it so it would come off the tracks?” A guess was better than no effort at all, she decided.

Not really. Though, thanks for pointing out they needed some form of babysitting. The way he said it was almost funny...if he hadn't continued and mention her attitude. She didn't have an attitude, you know? The smallest of smiles was growing on her face.

And Lottie was thinking on her reply to that when he LOUDLY to her announced which House she was in. Wrinkling-nose. No fair. Not the points, she could care less about those, how many points you earned and lost was never an indication of what a great wizard or witch one was...but...UGH. Being referred to as a Hufflepuff, she mentally shook her head.

Miss Morganzo?

Elliot?

That sparked her interest at the moment. Her eyes did follow the board. "It was exactly 30 years ago...," she almost whispered, but then raised her hand, points and the Hufflepuff bit forgotten for now, "Dark forces, perhaps?" because the Headmistress did seem to be in a hurry to get them off the train into Hogsmeade, so maybe she'd heard the story of what happened 30 years ago? "It seems it's the one time it did crash, compared to the other two. Something else might've been in the tracks." Or maybe someone was inside and dark wizards wanted to get rid of said person or something.

Now she wanted to ask...something that was probably off-topic...and she didn't want to be called 'Hufflepuff' again, so she'd better not ask anything and LIMIT herself--no, she wasn't limiting herself. Hand raised. "Where there any casualties back then?" did anyone die? If so, then...how was that relevant, exactly?

Wondering why the persons who mentioned color in relation to the Hogwarts Express' history were asked to join the Professor in front, Beezus brought her elbows on the desk, intertwined her fingers and rested her chin on it. Was Professor Scabior having the two of them on a debate or something like that?

But that had to wait for the man was now on the list of what was supposed to be the historical background of the magical train. Beezus nodded. Muggles, yes, it was constructed by those non-magic folk. And yes, it had broken down at least three times. Dementors on the first time with Dementors feeling a bit too friendly and decided to visit the students before they arrive at school. But really, Beatrice knew the Azkaban guards were looking for Sirius Black that time.

When Scabior asked for guesses on the second time the train broke, the Ravenclaw couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. The answer to that one was mentioned by one of their peers already. Quickly, she put her hand up.

"Professor, I believe Sierra Greigoth had already given a starting answer to that. As she said, during the journey to the school, it suddenly started snowing. It wasn't a usual occurrence because it was September," Snow in September? Yeah, that was just weird. "The train then ran into a snow bank, and got stuck and the students were forced to continue their way to Hogwarts on foot." Right Sierra? "..And in connection to what West Odessa said Professor, it was indeed assumed, uhh..well, actually it was proven thereafter that the wreckage had something to do with Lord Voldemortist killing a Professor and," *Head-shaking* "...a powerful book? I can't really remember. It was also reported that a dementor also made an appearance during that time."

Yes? Yes? She DID read Hogwarts, A History, quite a few times actually.

Was it just her or is this class going faster than she thought? Because part of her really thought that since this is History of Magic, there would be you know, a stop in time.... literally. Meh, Guess Professor Scabior proved her wrong with her almost sane theory. Juliet sat there and listened to the professor as he started the lecture. From time to time however, her eyes would still go back to the toy train. Yup, she wanted to play with the train.

As the lesson progressed a bit, they're now discussing on the 3 events in history that the train broke down and/or was stopped. Juliet knew about the 3, read or had possibly heard it from an adult but nothing much in particular. The details is a bit blur to her.

If she had to base her answer with the 1993 reason, which is the dementors stopping the train, then Juliet can come up with a basic answer as well. Her hand rose up "Someone evil or dark stopped the train... again" she said. Maybe not those dementors, maybe just something else. Something powerful and evil and dark and creepy.

Who knows.

West wondered if Lainey would come in and tell them all about Voldemortist. He'd never really had cause to ask her about it, why would he? But they were like, married or something once, right?

Possibly he had just made something up in his head.

And what was with that Beezus girl saying his and Sierra's full names like that? There were no other Wests or Sierras here. Nobody could possibly be confused at their awesomeness. Strange Ravenclaw.

Um...so...snow wasn't the answer for the question? That was really all Kurumi could fathom. Train back in Japan would stop and derail whenever there was a heavy snow storm of visibility was too low, so other than what her classmates had already offered up....the Gryffindor was lost. Which is why she went back to her parchment for the time being and jotted down notes - including the list that Professor Scabior had put on the board.

She did end up raising an eyebrow in Elijah's direction for a moment. Purple? Really? Distracted for a moment from the rest of the discussion, it was actually Beezus who managed to bring the seventh year back in.

Why did the train stop for the second time?

Hmm..

It happened in 2048. He's not born yet. How should he knows? Nevertheless, the third year raised his hand up "Some was throwing a giant snowball at it." Its possible, right? The Slytherin prefect said its snowing during that time and Beezus also mentioned about the snow too in her answer.

Beezus had barely sat back down when Kurumi sent a question towards her direction. Book of Mysteria. Yeah, that was it. The Ravenclaw nodded, "It could be a rather dangerous book if it falls into the wrong hands." For inside were numerous powerful spells and potions. And well, the bearer would most likely transcends others.

"It was said that Lord Voldemortist had an undeniable interest on it." And that it was why he crashed the train in the first place.

"One hundred and sixty seven." Scabior corrected. Specifics weren't needed but that correction was. He probably sounded like a Ravenclaw because of it.



"Good point about the Muggles." And the station, but the Muggles mostly, since no one had noted that. "Two points for you."

Yeah. Scabior was actually giving points.

And no. He hadn't hit his head.




Um. What? "No." Scabior said dryly. "I also stick to babysitting children as you can clearly see. And you know what's also not an excuse? Your attitude." ANYTHING that he said was an excuse. His word was almost law. He said it. They listened, and they wrote it down. That was how things worked. "So five points from Hufflepuff."



Famous butts? "Famous smells as well then due to these famous butts." Hopefully the train got aired out frequently.



Oh. Scabior nodded his head slowly. Good point. "The snow was not what caused the train to stop though, when it did go off track the snow bank actually helped it." She had to make sure she was clear of that.



"Not the Hogwarts express." Probably because it didn't run everyday but still. "And you are right. Something had to have gone wrong with the system."



Irrational? Well, he shrugged. "Remember, the idea came from the Ministry. The Ministry isn't exactly filled with the most rational people out there." Noooot that he was bashing the Ministry.

Much.






Painted purple? And the train was red. Honestly? "Come up here Miss Morganzo, Mister Wilde." Up to the front, beside him.

As students spoke out, Scabior drew his wand and every time a answer was right, it was written on the board. "Most of you seem to be right on track, which is excellent since all of this information is in your textbooks."... There were a few who...were off. But he expected it. Not everyone in the room was a O student. Probably only one actually....or none. Yeah. None. "The express was made by Muggles and they never knew about it and...everything that was basically said." He didn't need to repeat it. Everything was now on the board.


1. Relatively “new” (a hundred + years old)
2. Built by Muggle engineers
3. Pureblood families initially against it
4. Stopped on September first 1993 (because Dementor interference)
5. Ultimately the Ministry’s (Ottaline Gambol) idea
6. Created for a more discrete way of getting in and out of Hogwarts
7. One of the biggest Concealment charms ever was involved in its creation
8. One hundred and sixty seven memory charms used
9. Run by magic
10. Muggles can’t ride
11. Famous butts
12. Stopped/crashed on September first 2048
13. Stopped again on September first 2078

"Anyways, just by looking on the list we can see that the train has stopped three times since it was created." Maybe there was nothing strange at all and it was completely normal. Maybe. "The first time was probably because the invading Dementors cause the conductor to faint." Or something. That didn't matter. "Any guesses toward why the second crash happened?"

OOC:The lesson will continue in approximately 24 hours.

Sarah wrote down her notes, yet at number 11, Sarah did not approve of the language used so she changed it.

12. Stopped/crashed on September first 2048
13. Stopped again on September first 2078

She scanned the list to see how she could answer the question, snowfall and trains, "maybe some Dark Magic..." that was usually the answer when things went wrong in Hogwarts

What did cause the Train to crash? Kat had asked herself that question a long time ago. But.... what, really? Kat pondered for a moment until she remembered a conclusion she remembered.

"It could be a malfunction, Professor," Kat said. "But it may have been other... uhmmm... another Dark attack." Kat bit her lip. Just hopefully, it wasn't THAT.

"It started snowing just out of the blue, right? Someone must've conjured up a snow spell to freeze the train up, or cloud it's field of vision so it couldn't move on. It does seem quite thought out, come to think of it." Based on everyone else's answers, that one was pretty correct. The first one, at least. The second one she kinda guessed on.

Why would someone wanna do that? It sounded kinda stupid. for starters, she disliked snow quite a bit, so she couldn't see why anyone would ever want to make it just, "pop out of the ground"! A little was okay, a lot was NOT. Not in any way, shape, or form. But she couldn't control it, right? Why would anyone want to?

Hannah was totally annoyed that the professor gave points to that one kid about bringing up that it was made by muggles when clearly she said it first. Favortism...that had to be it. Whatever!!! She rolled her eyes at her friend Elliot...Elliot!! Why were they making her stand up? The train was red...maybe the professor didn't care so much when the sarcasm was put back on him! Scabior was definitely making THE list.

Why did the train mess up? How was she supposed to know. "Maybe some kids got together and decided they didn't want to go to school this term...maybe they put some kind of spell on the train." I mean really how did something like that happen? Plus it had to be older kids that knew how to do a spell like that.

Annabelle wondered why the second crash happened. She actually did not know the answer to it. She heard all the other answers her classmates were saying. Some answers she thought was way out there but some sounded logical. She remembered hearing about the first crash from the dementors and that happened when her auntie went to school.

Nigel had no idea why the second crash happened. But he could guess.

"Professor, was it hijacked by students?"

Why not, It could happen. Maybe some student did not want to go back to Hogwarts. Maybe even something weird was happening at Hogwarts that students did not want to be a part of. Nigel did like all the other answers especially the powerful book one.

Ella listened quietly, scribbling down notes as they appeared on the board. She groaned inwardly when some older Hufflepuff with an extremely bad attitude lost more points for Hufflepuff. SERIOUSLYYYY? Homegirl clearly didn't know that the house had a reputation to uphold. Sheesh. Hadley was not going to be pleased about this.

The third year didn't really know what might have stopped and/or crashed the train the second time. She recalled that Sierra mentioned something about it crashing into a snowbank, which was extremely strange given it didn't normally snow in September. Perhaps someone or something didn't want the train to get to Hogwarts and caused a bit of a diversion? Hmm... "Professor, I agree with Cardigan. It seems someone might have created the snow as a means to prevent the train from arriving at Hogwarts, or at least slowing it down a bit." Seemed plausible.
