╔══════════════╗ Lesson Two: Corrumpo Spell ╚══════════════╝
Manually guiding the chalk to his uniquely sprawling script, Angel copied down the spell for the day and the page it appeared in their alchemical textbooks. Wiping his hands of any fine white residue, he turned his attention to the head of the class, waving a hand through the air with simple ease which had caused the classroom door to swing open, and then, the curtains upon every high arched window pulled to the side to let the light spill through and douse its rays upon the foliage nestled along the back walls of the circular room. ”Good afternoon, class, today we will be spell casting.
“This spell is a fairly simple charm, and, has been practiced now for hundreds of years and have changed in their uses over those years. For instance, before metalwork had ever been invented there were nomadic alchemists that often dealt with the melting of iron ore or, for the process of separating ore from other minerals, gems, or fossils, and then revitalize it with a spell you’ll learn in next class to use the pure iron ore in experimentation… Though, recently, it's uses are much more versatile. “The Corrumpo spell can cast any metal to tarnish to rust, thus, creating an ease of access to burst though iron bars, mar an opponent’s shield, barricades, or weaponry, or, simply, destroy your friends bicycle, which, I don’t at all condone.”
“The wandwork is a bit difficult, so watch and repeat, with a swift wrist guide your wand in an even zigzag, absolutely make sure it is as even as possible going left, and then right, and left once again, failure to do so could cause the spell to to tarnish too much. Then thrust the point of the wand at the target and recite the incantation. Understand? The incantation is fairly simple, if you’ll repeat after me: cor-um-PEE-oh.”
“Excellent, now, give it a go on the metal chain link I’ve summoned to your desks, if you need any help, please, don’t hesitate to ask.”
The Board Page Nine in Absolutely, Alchemy Name of the spell: Corrumpo Pronunciation of the spell: Corr-um-PEE-oh Meaning behind the name: Corrumpo meaning: to break up, destroy, annhiliate / spoil, weaken Effects of the spell: This spell causes any iron or iron based object to rust upon will. Wand movements required to perform properly: With a swift wrist, form a zigzag line with the tip of the wand and then thrust it towards the object. Distance requirement: Item must be within sight Lasting effects: The effects last upon the object until the spell is reversed

”Well done,” he nodded scrupulously. A curiously dark and twinkling eye had settled one by one upon each student. It was an inquisitive sort of stare. But, he carried on as if he'd never paused at all. ”Ten points to the each of you, you've studied well.” His wand was scattered on his desk, he extended his hand and a levitation charm snapped the magical instrument to his hands in a quick blink. ”Let's make it a bit harder, shall we? Depulso, accio,” the professor gave an intricate swish of his wand. The tarnished, rusted orange bits of metal disappeared from their desks with a pop, and it is place, a solid metal block. It was thick, heavy, pure iron. ”Engorgio,” the desks creaked under the weights of the block as they thickened and grew. By the time the iron blocks had ceased, they were nearly a half a meter high and just as wide.
”Focus, harness, and control it; I want you to drill a hole of rust through the block straight on through, okay? Be careful with the rusted residue, don't breathe it in and don't play in it.” He only added as a precaution, just in case.

He ran up to the door of the class...panting...sweat beading down his face. He had ran here, full speed through the hallways, just to try to get there on time...but he failed. He walked in late, still panting, but feeling almost embarassed. He couldn't believe he seriously got to the class as late as he did. He was never late...to say the least, he was always early. It was a rare occasion for him to late for anything. He hated it, but he had to make due with what he would get. Probably deduction of points...he supposed...unless the Professor felt nice that day.
He did however, recognize the lesson...Corrumpo. He just hoped he could get it quickly, but he figured he would this time...mainly because this was a wandwork course. He was good at it. He got a metal chain, and prepared himself to do the spell. "Corrumpo," he said, pronouncing the spell perfectly, and waving his wand in a flawless movement. It did exactly what he wanted. It rusted the chains well enough.
He was also there long enough to hear the second instruction by the professor, which he happily was ready to do. He eyed down the metal block, looking it down, knowing he had to be precise. "Corrumpo," he said confidently, focusing in greatly. He felt it was easy to be honest. He kept going until he got what he wanted. 'That wasn't too hard,' he thought to himself, understanding that he did well with anything that had to do with his wand. As soon as he got away, like the history of Magic, or potions, he became just about worthless. Even worthless was an overstatement.
After he was done, he decided to go up to the professor. "Professor, I'm sorry I was late. I'm not going to make an excuse. I honestly was just late. I won't let it happen again," he told the professor in confidence, ready to take any punishment.
I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.
(OOC: Sorry about the lateness. Been sick and my laptop has been broke. Hard to post on my phone. I've only been able to make like one post a day. But the laptop is better now.)

Waking up in a world surrounded by flames... Where everything I liked is about to fade... How could you be the one, if you're not the same? If in the hands of gods, you have lost your way? How ever fast I dance to make the sun shine- I will never fall down! No matter what it takes, I'll try to save the ghost lights... How ever hard I pray to remake you mine- I will never fall down!
How ever hard I pray: Excited To remake you mine: I've been looking forward to this class... I will never fall down: Third Years No matter what it takes: Alchemy

Elsie was busy rolling her eyes as she muttered a "Corrumpo." Sapphire and David had their silly little competition thing going on again. She always tried to think the best of people, she really did, but Sapphire always came off to her a spoiled princess and David as a smug... arse. He was an arse. There was no other way to put it. She knew him and Leo were friends, and she counted the Gryffindor girl as among her friends, but she didn't understand what she saw in David. At all. She resolved to ignore that back and forth going on between the Slytherin and Ravenclaw, an exasperated look on her face as she started trying the spell again.
I'LL TRY TO SAVE THE GHOST LIGHTS...
No matter what it takes, I'll try to save the ghost lights... Waking up in the fog, the dust and the pain... And of the sunny days, no traces remain... How could you be the one, if you sail away? Without you I can't stand the sound of the rain! How ever fast I dance to make the sun shine- I will never fall down! No matter what it takes, I'll try to save the ghost lights...

╔══════════════╗ Lesson Three: Inveratus Spell ╚══════════════╝
"Welcome back class, today, we will begin with the counter to last class's spell...The counter charm: inveratus, essentially does the opposite of your last spell, if you come across iron that’s rusted, this will do the trick to reverse the effects." Juan stepped forward to demonstrate the wandwork, and the etymology behind the spell and then offered for the students to have a go on the rusted instruments on his desk."The trick, however, is not so much the wandwork (however that is just as important too) but the thing about this spell is to remember that the way it is written is not how it sounds,
"Inveratus, when pronounced correctly, sounds like in-VET-er-a-tus." He nodded slowly and glanced around the room to assure himself everyone was keeping on track.
”So do be careful, this is rust, I’d advise you all to wear your gloves if you have them, if not, I have a box full right here you can use.”

He walked into class rather later, but not just on time of course. He noticed that a lot of the others weren't here, which confused him. Where were they? Was he not as late as he thought he was? These questions lingered within the confines of his mind, confusing him further and further the more he thought about it. His watch could have been set too far forward. He was toying with it earlier, which lead him to believe that maybe he it something to change the time. That was the only possible explanation for this.
Despite his confusion, took a seat and listened to the teacher, taking the lesson in with relative understanding. He didn't really understand why exactly this spell was spelled so much different to what it sounded like. It was kind of like the word 'colonel' or 'lieutenant', which were common words that didn't sound exactly how they were spelled. Despite how much it annoyed him, he accepted it.
He received the rusted metal, running his hands on the dull surface. He made sure not to cut himself on it, for he was not sure he had tetanus shots last summer. He wasn't sure if Wizards had a cure for it, but he wasn't going to take a chance. He looked at the rusted metal, ready to cast the spell.
"in-VET-er-a-tus," he said aloud, watching as the metal turn mostly back to its original, shiny self. There was a little bit of rust still left over so he performed the spell again to make the rest of the metal perfect.
I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.

╔══════════════╗ Alchemy I Lesson Four: Baleful Brew Tuesday, Block One, 8:00 am to 8:45 am ╚══════════════╝
Several silent flicks and flurries of his wand had led directions to be scribbled upon the chalk board that stood at the forefront of the classroom adjacent the students desk. Today, bronze cauldrons were placed at the head of every desktop, which, for this class, had been transformed into a longer wooden tables to accommodate all of the ingredients and materials deemed necessary. His hasty steps manually pushed a cart that he had prepared with all of the ingredients and measuring cups needed and several of the rarer ingredients were already bottled to the exact increments, as well.
”Today, we will begin with a little challenge, we’ll be learning the Baleful Brew, a powerful potion that will eradicate any sense of dread, fear, anxiety, worry or paranoia… Whoever completes the best potion, the quickest, may keep a small portion of it for themselves. I took the liberty of completing the first step for you which requires a twenty four hour preparation period. Before you begin, I would like you direct your attention to step number four.
“That step specifies that, as you stir the contents in the cauldron, you’re allowed to stir clockwise as many times as need be, it does not matter, but if you decide to stir counterclockwise during this step, you may only stir eighteen full circle strokes, at the most, and at the least, no more. So, you really don’t need to stir counterclockwise because of the risk involved, if you do it one too many times or less, then the chances of the potion brewing successfully are significantly reduced, but if you do decide to stir counterclockwise—remember, only eighteen strokes—and manage it successfully, it will actually increase the rate of success for the potion. Now, if nobody has any questions, you may begin brewing….
And remember, the first one to bring me the perfect potion gets to keep a small portion, and the added bonus of twenty-five points to your house.”
Quote: Turn to page sixteen in your textbooks.
[OOC: This class is a two-week class. To make this interesting, I'd like each of you to enable the roll dice action, in the Post Action option found just above the Submit and Preview buttons. Select, 20 sided dice. Select, 1 # of dice to be rolled. The closest number to my number, which I will roll next Saturday (to allow everyone a chance to participate) will be the winner.]
