Default Out on the grounds (Charms 2 & Transfiguration 2)

_________________________________

After you have left the classroom, you are led to a wide open area on the school grounds. This is where the second portion of the joint lesson will be taking place so don't dilly dally in getting here.

In the sky, there are tiny hoops floating at even distances but those are none of your concern for the time being.

Gather around for the instructions to be handed out once the last of the stragglers have arrived. No worries about the crisp winter morning air as charms have been placed around the area to keep the temperature comfortable. Thoughtful; yes, we know.

Okay, Margo was getting pretty darn good at this! And she was loving it! So smiling and flying toward another group of hoops. Margo must have taken a different route than every one else, maybe she did it backwards because there never seem to be any other students at hers, which was a good thing, seeing as then she never had to wait or worry about crashing into someone. Margo wasn't so sure she had complete control over Hugo as it was.

So, coming up on the next set, Margo brought her wand up to the ready and smiled. "Engorgio" Margo said not bothering to slow her dragon down any, seeing as she was getting so good at this but...unfortunately it was a no good this time and before Margo even had time to counter react to the situation Huge flew right into the way too small hoop.

BANG CRUNCH

And both Margo and Hugo collided with the hoop making way too much noise and most likely drawing attention to herself. Slightly dazed Margo looked at Hugo...okay he was still airborne that was a good sign, but his left wing did look a little crumpled. "You okay big guy?" Margo asked patting him on the neck again, "We can stop if you want." She told Hugo...looking around to see if anyone noticed their mistake....or rather her mistake.

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

Toothless was soaring. Its rider didn't mind that one bit for he was really enjoying the breeze in his face and through his hair. He would really have to take to fixing his hair when he dismounted from the dragon. That would be noooo problem... but would his specs pose a problem? O__O The thing wouldn't blow off, would it? Heh.

Adi pushed the specs up the bridge of his nose as they approached another hoop. "Engorgio!'' An incomplete circular movement in a clockwise direction sent the hoop off in getting bigger annnnnd they were through!

Two hoops later, the dragon and boy were still soaring. Adi could see that they had almost completed a lap through the hoops. Awesomeee! But for the most part, he was wishing this activity did not have to come to an end. Couldn't they do this FOREVER, please?

Default Final activity post 4 - Finishing up

Austin's head whipped around as a loud bang occurred. A set of hoops over, a girl and her dragon had collided with a hoop. He wanted to go over to make sure she was okay, but the professor told them to stay on course, so he didn't bother. They were still airborne, and neither of them seemed to be injured. If there was a problem, she would tell the professor.

Turning back towards his own hoops, he decided it was time to try again. "Alright buddy," he called down to his dragon. "Let's try this again." The dragon looked back at him in disbelief. "Don't worry, I got it this time." If the dragon were a person, it definitely would have rolled its eyes. But it was fine. Austin knew what he was doing. His mother always told him to learn from his mistakes, and that was what he was going to do.

"ENGORGIO!" Austin leaned forward on his dragon as the hoop enlarged to the correct size. Once they made it through, Austin leaned towards the left to align with the second hoop "ENGORGIO!" This time the hoop grew to the correct size, an the two easily flew through it. Austin and his buddy, Thrasher, continued in this stride until they had finished with the set of hoops. "YES!" Austin threw his hands up in the air in celebration. He had not only mastered a transfiguration, he had mastered a new charm. Unfortunately, Thrasher knew they were finished, and had started landing while the blue eyed boy's arms were raised. Sadly he had lost his balance, and fallen of his dragon.

THUD

Thankfully they were close enough to the ground that Austin wasn't hurt. But the wind did get knocked out of him. His dragon landed next to him in concern. The Ravenclaw just gave a thumbs up with an outstretched arm. "I'm alright."

Soooo this was definitely not the start that she wanted to have for this obstacle course. If only the hoops were ALREADY big, then she would have smoked every last one of them. The whole having to use your wand thing was throwing her off. Magic was hard! She was not going to give up. Even if she was the last one flying around in the sky, she wouldn't quit. Merlin, that better not be the case.

"We got this," she said to her dragon. AJ lined Zelda up so that they were flying towards the first hoop again. She was ready. All she saw in her mind was a huge hoop. "ENGORGIO!" A circle was made with her wand, annnnnd the hoop was big. YES! She and Zelda flew easily through the hoop.

"Alright, Zelda. Wing bump!" Obviously AJ didn't have a wing, but Zelda did, and she was willing to compromise. What a nice little Gryffindor she was. Just as her dragons' wing was coming up AJ lowered her elbow and made contact with her dragon. She had totally just made up dragon fist bumping. How cool was she?

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

So far so good!

The pair had not missed a single hoop although they almost had due to Adi's carelessness. "We make a great team, don't we, buddy?" he shouted so Toothless could hear over the rush of the win and the flap of wings. Toothless gave one of his rumbles and Adi grinned.

"Alrightey! I see we've got about three hoops left. Let's do this!''
His dragon seemed to be on the same page because he suddenly sped up a bit O__O

"We're not in any hurry!''
the surprised Hufflepuff called to his flying buddy. Was the dragon tired of the activity or something? No time to worry about that, however. "Engorgio!'' Toothless went sailing through that one.

One down, two to go! "Engorgio!'' This hoop too, was big enough for Toothless to pass through without a problem. "One more, bud!'' Closer... closer... closer... "Engorgio!'' Adi did the incomplete clockwise circle movement for one last time and... WOAH! O__O That hoop was extra big! Perfect for a great finale to the circle of hoops. Hehe.

After the dragon had smoothly and extra easily soared through that one, Adi called out, ''Let's head to the ground now!'' Toothless did just that, taking his time to descend on the almost deserted ground since practically everyone was airborne.

Adi patted the dragon's head. "You were AWESOME, Toothless. Thanks for being the perfect flying buddy and not going all berserk on me at any point.'' That was no surprise though. Adi was good with creatures. So, he should get off of Toothless now? Naaah. He'd just sit here for a while longer.

Right then.

"As chivalrous as the thought is, Mister Lecium, I'm not sure and I'm not sure I want you to find out." Noooo, that was a prime example of negligence and Maddox was more subtle than that. "These are not as strong as real dragons and I, personally, don't know their limitations."

Quite plainly, he wasn't sure it was safe and wouldn't be allowing it for that reason.

Naturally to fly through them you'll have to make them bigger first so, no, your dragon cannot do the mini course without you." In case there had been others outside of Miss Carrington that had been wondering.

"You don't have to participate, but if you don't you're likely to sit here on the ground with me and watch the others getting a better handle on the spell." Not an ultimatum, simply a fact considering he didn't have an alternate plan.

"Before you take off, let me make this clear, you are to fly your dragons through the hoops and NOT off on your own path. I don't want to see any dragon fights either. No funny business. These dragons are under your command as is the nature of the spell so you will be held accountable for your dragon's actions and I won't hesitate to turn your dragon back to stone and levicorpus you back to the ground." Were they clear on that? He could repeat for those who were too awe struck by the dragons to pay much attention.

"The course has a few hoops at each location so I don't expect to see a bunch of students rushing the same hoop when there are two or three others floating next to it. Also," for the lazier bunch among them, "the hoops are charmed to shrink after someone has flown through so everyone will have to make their own way." Fun, yes? "So if there are no more questions, have at it." He would be staying RIGHT HERE on solid ground thank you very much.


Final activity! Thanks for sticking around guys <3 So like Maddox said, the students will have to use the spell to make the hoops big enough for them to fly through them in order to make a lap. Remember that the spell puts the dragons under the characters control so there shouldn't be anything out of control unless the charries orchestrated that themselves. You'll need 4-5 posts and have until Friday at maybe 7 pm GMT -5 to get this done. I do take catch ups so if you haven't made your dragon bigger yet and would like to, go right ahead but label appropriately so I can tell the difference.


As Kace asked his question, he heard Quigly and nodded. He probably didn't want to put himself and his new dragon in great danger. He grinned sheepishly at Lux and at least he tried. There wasn't even alternatives for this assignment. Ah well better luck next time Lux. He went over to Jeffrey and was prepared to ride. It seemed Jeffery was antsy to do this too. Kace petted him and he heard Quigly's directions. He nodded and understood. The hoops would shrink once someone flew threw them. He needed to use the Engorgio charm more often than he thought.

Right then time to mount his creature. He faced him and asked, "Okay Jeffrey I am gonna go on your back okay?" he said and patted his back. Jeffrey understood and lowered his back and Kace walked around and mounted him like he did with his horses back on the farm. Now THIS was a new experience. His heart was racing and he was quite nervous. He gulped and now it was time to fly.

Wait...Lazybones? Okay, not a cute name really, but she could sympathize. Although, those words...

"I never said anything about failing. Who said anything about failing?" And failing was a Gryffindor thing? That didn't sound good. Amur pulled back a little, trying to process the older girl's words. "I do care about how I get somewhere....but I also cared about not blowing up my dragon." Wasn't that part of the process? And her dragon wasn't exploded, see? So far no failure.

"But I suppose you're right. I don't care about looking stupid. I find it's a waste of time and energy to care about something so subjective and biased." After all, one person's stupid was another person's genius. "If you worry about looking stupid all the time, how are you supposed to actually enjoy what you are doing? How are you supposed to have fun?" Like flying dragons. Common, didn't this girl want to fly?

Maybe her social circle had high expectations of her, so she had to care about how she looked when she did things? That was possible. Amur decided she shouldn't judge. After all, the girl was partially right. They were in different houses. They thought differently. Still....she needed to relax a little. Let loose. Drive a convertible or fly a dragon.

But alas, no partner flying. She shrugged. The Professors rules were the Professors rules. But, not enough fibre? Amur snorted a little at that, covering her mouth with one hand. Alright, so the girl wasn't a complete stickler.

She watched as she set to the task of enlarging her dragon. Really, she wasn't sure what the Slytherin had been so worried about. Her dragon enlarged rather seamlessly. For that, she got a round of applause from Amur. See? Process.
"If you try something without knowing the outcome, then you might fail. I'm just saying you're willing to fail, and I... don't like to." Not suggesting the girl would fail, just that she didn't care so much whether she did or not. And Dot cared a LOT. "Have fun your way, and I'll have fun my way."

And that left them on good terms, because Dot had made her dragon larger without blowing it up and the girl... Amur, was it? The girl hadn't made fun of her for it and had applaued when she got her spell right.

Speaking of spells gone right, Dot needed to get a move on before the professor lack-of-fibered in her direction again. She put a hand on the neck of her dragon to let him know she was there, and then she scrambled ungraciously onto his back. All elbows and flashes of knee socks. "Good boy, Lazybones. We're going for a little flight, and you need to not drop me off to my death. Please."

She pointed her wand to the sky. "Okay FLY." Nothing. Sigh. Lazy dragon. "Please fly." Dot kicked her heels gamely against the dragon's sides and tried some serious intention. The dragon was supposed to do what she said, right? "Fly fly fly." She kicked again, and Lazybones stirred and extended his wings. GOOD START.

Time to get Jeffrey flying. He was already on top of his back and was trying to calm down. I mean it is not everyday Kace flew a dragon. It took a bit getting used to. He calmed himself down. He took deep breaths in and out of his nose. He asked Jeffrey, "You ready boy?" and he felt his tail wag and he was prepared. Alright time to go up in the air. "Jeffrey up!" he called. The dragon didn't obey. Hmm....okaayy....time for a different tactic. Let's try the technique he did with horses. He patted his heels against the side of his dragon and he immediately responded and flew up in the air.

WOOOOOOAAAHHHHHH

Now THAT was a bit too fast there Jeffrey. I guess he was a bit too anxious to spread his wings. "Okkkaayyyy Jeffrey..." he croaked. He was up a little too high and he was kind of scared he would admit it but he could do this. This experience was once in a lifetime. He felt Jeffrey fly towards the hoops and he held his wand out. Let's show these hoops who's boss. He saw other students flying and it didn't seem as bad as he thought. It seemed fun and plus him and Jeffrey had a good relationship so far. He didn't throw him off. Good sign right there.

Engorgio. Engorgio. Engorgio.

Grayson chanted the incantation over and over again while his dragon looked at him in mild confusion. It was a simple enough spell but this was kinda important and all. He didn't want to get it wrong. No way! There was too much at stake here. If he was dealing with something else, he probably wouldn't have cared so much but this was different. Miles different.

"Engorgio!" he cried, moving his wand around in an incomplete circular motion in the clockwise direction.

And......... SMIRK.

Look at the dragon! It was getting MUCH bigger now, which Grayson approved of, obviously. Couldn't ride around on a tiny dragon, he might just end up squashing it! And he was kinda antsy to join in on the actual activity that the others were participating in because boy, did that look like it was a lot of fun!

And......... STOP. At nine feet long. Brilliant!

"Ok, let's be nice and slow about th--"

WHOOSH!

Spike wanted NOTHING to do with slow, and he took off so fast that Caleb nearly fell off of him. He grabbed onto his hard stone scales and wrapped his arms around his neck simply to stay on. It seemed that Spike was just too excited to get off the ground...after his initial excitement, the stone dragon slowed down to a nice coast.

"THANK YOU," he said with a sigh of relief to the stone dragon. Now to the task at hand...flying through the hoops.

"Alright Spike, head for that one!" he commanded, pointing to a line of hoops to their left. The dragon started to speed up just a bit, so Caleb knew he had understood him, and he took his wand out of his pocket and readied it. When they were about ten feet out, he started to move his wand in the clockwise circle and shouted "Engorgio!"

The circle expanded and expanded...just enough for him to make his way into the hoop. His hair skimmed the top of it as Spike soared through. EEEP! That was close...he had to focus on the next one being BIGGER...

Lazybones studied his wings with interest before finally taking a few loping steps and launching himself into the air. Embarrassing as it was, Dot couldn't help but throw herself forward to cling to the ridges on the dragon's back and scream at the top of her lungs. Nothing to look at here, folks. Just being pathetic.

Once Lazybones got a little height, he leveled out, and Dot was able to stop screaming like a banshee. He breathing was still ragged and her knuckles were white, but at least she wasn't screaming anymore. She kicked one foot against the dragon's side, and he turned toward the hoops.

Hmm... that closest one was fine. They'd just... HOOP TOO SMALL HOOP TOO SMALL! "Engorgio! Engorgio!" The spell was a little frantic, and the hoop quickly ballooned until Lazybones was able to slip through it with no trouble. Maybe even with nearly a metre to spare beyond the tip of each wing. Hehe, oops.

It really was a shame that Quigley had explicitly told them they had to stay on the established flight path of going through the wings, because once again Toby was having fantasies of flying off to freedom. Not that he'd tried it, thinking about it now, because Bellaire was, like... still watching. Tobias was determined not to risk crossing that woman. He could be smart sometimes.

In any case, Toby was on his dragon now (vaguely wondering if he was actually still in bed, dreaming, because... he was sitting astride a DRAGON) and... trying to work out how to make it go. Take off. Fly. Getting on had been easy, easier than his many disastrous attempts at climbing up onto a Hippogriff that one time, but even with the Hippogriff they'd had instructions of how to get moving. Was there some kind of... foot nudge motion...? But no sooner had he thought it than Ella the Dragon suddenly began to move forward, making as though she was about to go off for a run. After a weird little hop-skip-jump (at least that was what it felt like; Toby couldn't actually see the dragon's feet) they were up in the air, soaring right up towards those tiny hoops.

Toby held his wand at the ready, encouraging his dragon quickly towards that first hoop, though not so fast that he wouldn't have time to enlarge it, and got ready to cast the spell.

Norah wiggled excitedly with one hand on King Phillip's back as she listened to Professor Quigley's explanation. This was gonna be COOL. And totally scary and nuts, but COOL. She stuck her wand behind ear right after pointing a finger at it and warning it against any funny business because you could never be too safe, then turned to figure out this whole mounting business. It wasn't going to hurt him or anything, right? Riiiiight? The third year gave him one last pat before placing her purple trainer on the side of his big 'ol body. "Tell me if this hurts, 'kay? Do a screamy thing. Blink a couple times. I dunno." Hurting King Phillip was 1000% NOT allowed, okay. A THOUSAND percent. She pushed and pushed with her skinny noodle arms but didn't get on top of him. Okay. Take two, then. PUSHPUSHPUSH. Norah catapulted herself this time, as well as she could anyway, so she landed on Phillip's back with a barely audible thump. But he didn't do a screamy thing so it was all good, yeah?

The thirteen year old looked down to make sure her sparkly shoelaces were still tied up 'cause getting caught on something would be especially bad from on top of a dragon, even if it'd make for some totally rad stories. With one last adjustment of King Phillip's crown, she looked around at the others to see how they were s'posed to get this thing started. Did she just poke him or what? Okay. Fly, Phillip. Pretty please with dragon food on top? What'd dragons eat, anyways?

Time to get this show on the road. The puff had his wand at the ready and saw one student go through one of the hoops and saw the hoop getting smaller. This is what Quigly mentioned good thing he had paid attention. He said "ENGORGIO!" and did the wand movement and he saw the hoop get bigger and it was enough room for him and Jeffrey to get through. Alright let's go through this fast! "COME ON JEFFREY!" he called out and patted his heels on the dragon's sides and he felt Jeffrey move and he moved through the hoop!

"BLOODY MERLIN JEFFREY YOU DID IT..." he called out and was impressed with him. He loved his dragon and he seemed to be getting the hang of it. He seemed like a pretty smart dragon. They were both approaching another hoop and Kace had to call out "ENGORGIO!" with a clockwise circle and he saw the hoop widen once more and his dragon flew sideways through the hoop.

Man Jeffrey was athletic just like Kace was. He was loving the competition. They had gone through two hoops only a few more to go. Let's see what the others would bring.

Aiming would be the most difficult thing here, Toby was quickly deducing. He was flying through the air on a creature he had no experience riding before, the hoops were tiny and had a very small surface area to boot. Then the tricky wand movement because trickier because of all these things.

Except, apart from that initial thought, Toby wasn't thinking about any of this. Because Ella was pretty fast and they were nyooming up towards the rings very quickly and there wasn't really much time to think. Even though the spell wasn't exactly one usually found in Toby's arsenal, he found himself casting it automatically as they flew right at a hoop.

"Engorgio." The spell might have worked, had he not messed up the wand movement there, flourishing his wand a little too enthusiastically and nearly letting it fall to the ground. But Toby recovered his grip, kept his cool (alarmingly easy, though... not surprising when he thought about it), and cast again at the rapidly approaching hoop. "Engorgio."

Toby moved his wand clockwise, tracing a circle in the air, breaking it off just short of completion. With only feet to go, the size of the hoop in front of him and Ella swelled rapidly, allowing them the space to shoot through it unscathed. Which they did. As they went for the next tiny hoop, Toby chanced a glance over his shoulder to see that it did, in fact, immediately shrink right back down again.

Okay... one down, however many more to go.

SPOILER!!: Dot :)

And that left them on good terms, because Dot had made her dragon larger without blowing it up and the girl... Amur, was it? The girl hadn't made fun of her for it and had applaued when she got her spell right.

Speaking of spells gone right, Dot needed to get a move on before the professor lack-of-fibered in her direction again. She put a hand on the neck of her dragon to let him know she was there, and then she scrambled ungraciously onto his back. All elbows and flashes of knee socks. "Good boy, Lazybones. We're going for a little flight, and you need to not drop me off to my death. Please."

She pointed her wand to the sky. "Okay FLY." Nothing. Sigh. Lazy dragon. "Please fly." Dot kicked her heels gamely against the dragon's sides and tried some serious intention. The dragon was supposed to do what she said, right? "Fly fly fly." She kicked again, and Lazybones stirred and extended his wings. GOOD START.


OOoohhh. That made much more sense. And it was rather true. Amur nodded. Her bad, the Slytherin's good. While the girl seemed reserved on the extent to which she would allow herself to have fun, she did seem smart. Amur wondered if the latter was perhaps a better quality to have. At the very least, it was safer.

The end agreement sounded good. They would each pursue their own definition of fun. Reasonable and fair.

Turning her own attention back to her dragon, Amur wrapped her hands around one of its spines and leaned down low on its neck, peering up at the hoops. Rocky Felix was still doing his foot-hopping, his whole body swaying from side to side, his wings extending slightly and then curling back up again. His head was low to the ground, slithering back and forth on his long neck as he too looked up at the sky expectantly. Amur took a moment to get used to the feeling of a moving creature under her, to try and work out balance and how not to fall off.

Hold on tight seemed to be the logical conclusion.

Now, what was the word to get the creature into the air? She went through the possible list again. Up? Mush? Skyward? Tally-ho? No. "Yip-yip!"

With a roar of excitment, Rocky Felix lept into the air, his claws scraping at the ground as he pushed off. To her surprise, he didn't open his wings right away, but snapped them close to his body. That seemed completely backwards. Even though they were shooting into the air at an angle thanks to the power of his muscles, Amur knew what would come next. Falling like the rock that he truly was.

"Open your wings, fool dragon. Open open!"

Too late. They were at the pinnacle of their ascent and Amur could feel the inevitable tug of gravity pulling them back down. To her horror, Rocky banked to the side, putting her side parallel to the ground. Amur wanted to cover her eyes and scream, but she couldn't unwrap her fingers from the spine.

Just as they started into the descent, the creature finally snapped open his wings, catching an updraft of air that carried them up, up and up. Amur's fear rose from her gut, to her mouth and escaped in a breath of awe. She was flying. She was actually flying!!

For a moment, the hoops were forgotten and she simply enjoyed the lazy glide of the dragon as it banked around the hoop course.

Norah removed her wand from behind her ear and leaned forward on King Phillip's back, throwing her arms around his neck. "Alright, let's go!" Despite what Professor Quigley had said, she was still surprised when he actually listened to her and started to stretch out his wings. WHOA WHOA. She giggled with glee but the sound was lost in the wind rushing past her face as she and Phillip made their way up up up and away. Very away, apparently, because all of a sudden the paper crown she'd made for her dragon was GONE and she was reduced to shrieking, "My crown!" The third year looked down at the ground but turned forward again quickly 'cause whoa. That was hiiiigh up. She could make him a new crown later that'd be sparkly-er and better and it'd be rad. "You can stop going up now, we've got to do the hoop thing." The third year patted her dragon again 'cause good job knowing how to fly 'n all that, before directing him to the lap.

She and King Phillip began soaring in the direction of the first hoop as she adjusted herself on his back so she could point her wand at it while maintaining a firm grip on the dragon with her other hand. They got closer and closer and "Engorgio!" She moved her wand in an incomplete clockwise circle and let out a breath she hadn't realized she had been holding when the hoop really grew to let them through. OOOOH yeah! What what. Norah let out a loud "Whoooop!" which was pulled from her mouth by the cold air that was whipping her hair around all crazy as they flew. Good thing her mum wasn't here, or she'd be chasing her with a hairbrush. She steadied her wand arm as they began to near a second hoop. "Engorgio!" WHOOPS, wrong circle direction. Her voice was more frantic as she tried again less than a meter away from the hoop. "Engorgio!" Pheeew. She rested her cheek on the back of Phillip's now crown-less head for a moment as they continued around the lap. "You're doing AWESOME, Phillip. Awwweeeeesome."

Okay she was going to do this. Puck carefully tried climbing onto Duke’s spiked back. Her hand would probably bleed after this you know with the whole holding onto a horntail’s horned neck to get through the flying bit.

“Up c’mon lets fly Duke,” she told her little musician of a Dragon as she held her wand in one hand. Incomplete semi circle later, “engorgio” she watched as the hoop expanded and Duke lifted into the air with a powerful thrust.

SHE WAS GOING TO IMP-she didn’t thankfully impale herself but she thought she would.

It was getting closer.... closer... closer, closer, CLOSER!

He had to do it now!

"Engorgio!" he cast, his wand tracing an incomplete clockwise circle as they flew. He had been focusing intently, so he knew his targeting wasn't going to be off by any. Rapidly, the hoop swelled in size, growing.... growing... but it stopped, wide enough for them to pass.

Instinctively he ducked his head, flattening himself against his dragon's back, his spare arm securing a hold around the wing!shoulder!big!thing! DRAGON! They were through!

"Good flying buddy," he grinned, leaning back up slightly as they turned toward their next target. "We're almost there." Almost... though a part of him REALLY didn't want to get off his dragon. He wanted to keep flying, and like, NEVER come down. Ever.

Shifting herself to be more comfortable in a spot up higher on Klaus' back she glanced about. Several of her friends were already flying through the hoops on their dragons appearing to be having an awesome time. She was so beyond ready now!

"Let's go Klaus, take to the sky boy!" Hady exclaimed excitedly giving her dragon a light nudge in the sides with the heels of her shoes. The green Welsh dragon needed no further prompting as he stretched out his wings, gave them a few small flaps before taking off with a larger push of his wings.

Hady smirked proudly as they were moved higher into the air the breeze pulling some strands of her hair into her face of they came undone from her ponytail. Pushing her hair from her eyes she gripped her wand tightly in her hand. "That way Klaus, towards the hoops. When we get close enough I'll enlarge each one so we both fit. You just focus on the hoops." She encouraged patting his scales with her free hand.

Here we go! Closer and closer the first hoop came. It was well in her sights and the young girl knew what she had to do. Holding out her wand she made the incomplete clockwise circle pointing at the hoop as she called out, "Engorgio!" just in time too as both the dragon and herself sailed smoothly through. "Nice work buddy, keep going!"

One down and the rest of the lap to go! She could do this! Klaus could do this!

No wait. They, yes they, could do this!

Cutty was listening. Engorgio was a spell he'd used before and often enough that it didn't feel alien at all. The thing of it was he'd never actually used it on an animate object before and certainly not to gross effect as he never saw the point/had the opportunity. So this whole POPing thing was new to him.

Why hadn't anyone told him about it before?


His own mother, even?


With a short sigh and a raised brow smile, the very look of one about to go forth and not give a damn, Cutty placed the cage of his still tiny dragon on the floor and undid the latch willing the Fireball to come out. Again with it's cascading locomotion, the shining creature spilled out onto the ground and curled, but not coiled smelling the air in it's immediate surroundings.

Cutty kicked the cage aside lightly and clutched his wand, looking down at the creature. "Right, then." He cleared his throat and performed the half circle motion. "Engorgio." And soon it was the size of a small shepherd dog.

The Idea Man Kori-Kins

Angel was totally enjoying herself and she had no idea why she had been afraid. Firestorm seemed to be enjoying the flying as well and she wished that he didn't have to change back to a rock, saying that you could use this spell on the rock more than once right. She wouldn't do it but she wondered if that was why there was so many dragons maybe others have.

Angel looked at the next ring and smiled. "Don't worry Firestorm, I've got this." Angel said as she pointed her wand at the ring. "Engorgio!" Angel did the circular wand movement and smiled as the ring got bigger but as she got there she noticed something else.

"Engorgio!" Angel did the wand movement again as they went through the first hoop, she was totally loving this, they went through the second hoop but Firestorms wing got hit. "I'm sorry, I didn't realise there was two, I'll make sure to keep an eye on things fully from now on."

How awesome was it riding on the back of a dragon? Not just any dragon, 'HER' dragon to be exact! TOTALLY awesome!

With her usual smirk in place Hady guided Klaus with quiet directions, not that he needed it for her dragon was smart. He knew where he was going and he was getting there...FAST!

This meant that the small girl had to pay close attention to her targets (the hoops) and everyone else around them. As they neared the next hoop Hady was ready this time preforming the proper wand movement and charm at the same time. "Engorgio," she cast clearly watching as the hoop grew with perfect timing for them she fly right through. So far so good.

Giving Klaus a small nudge with her right foot to his side while telling him, "this way please" as she leaned slightly to the side was enough for her dragon to know to turn a little for the next hoop.

"Engorgio!" Hady recited once, twice, three more times while waving her wand correctly each time for the next couple of hoops. "Almost there Klaus just two more to go!" She exclaimed happily patting him lightly on his neck earning herself a small huff in reply.

All the breathing in the world would never stop the flipping her stomach was doing. This was ridiculous. Not the activity. The activity was brilliant; flying dragons through hoops. Epic, even. The fact that her body was succumbing to fear and making her feel nauseous. It was strange. Beverly was never one to feel queasy, not even at worst times.

Shaking her head and counting to ten in her head, Beverly inhaled and exhaled. The stretch of her lungs filling with air was nice, she could breath. That was good, at least.

"You better not drop me," she mumbled, climbing atop the dragon. Wrapping her arms around it tight, she gave it a little nudge on the side with her heel. "We're going to fly through several hoops and then get down, it's okay." She told it, but really, the Slytherin was reassuring herself.

The dragon ascended steadily without turbulence, Beverly's arms wrapped tight around its neck.

ALSKDFJLSKJFD!!!!!!!

They were on the home stretch as far as their hoop course was concerned, and even as he watched some of the others fly through the hoop ahead of him, with it shrinking back to size, he couldn't help but feel disappointed, knowing that he'd have to touch back down shortly. Boo.

Snapping out of his pit of despair, Zeke directed his dragon toward the target hoop, his wand had extending to cast the charm quicker than he had the previous times.

Incomplete clockwise circle, along with a clear and strongly intended, "Engorgio," soon followed.

Zeke lowered his body to his dragon again as the hoop ENGORGED itself, swelling to a size great enough to allow him and his dragon free and easy passage.

"Woooooooooo! That's it, good one!" he pat his dragon on the neck before giving it the indication to descend. "Easy does it."

The landing wasn't smooth, but it was comfortable, he was in no hurry to dismount his scaley, leathery steed just yet though. Nope he was going to sit here, watch the others and enjoy his dragon riding moment.
