[Prof Octavious Everritt]

Leigh sighed as he trudged over the long field towards the forest. He heard several loud howls reign in over the forest. "Werewolves." Leigh muttered as he entered the forest. he walked for an hour or more, he didn't know. He ventured into the darkness of the forest, feeling the shadows closing in on him. He smiled, when he saw that it was simply a Unicorn stepping out into his dim view.

"Lumos." Leigh muttered, as the tip of his wand sparked to life. The Unicorn slowly came towards him, Leigh standing his ground. The Unicorn, once near enough, started nuzzling him. He reached onto it's neck and began stroking it, feeling the soft silky hair it held. He smiled when he heard several different heavy footsteps behind him. Not human. The Unicorn suddenly turned and quickly ran away back into the depths of the darkness.

Leigh turned to the approaching sound, feeling the heavy breaths of several beings surrounding him. He heard a vicious snarl behind him and saw a werewolve calmly step into view. Leigh smiled as it came closer to him. It snarled viciously, carefully coming into the light.

"Come on... that's it." Leigh said, a suddeny glint in his eye. "Now! Draconic Exdamentia!" He shouted, as the spell worked. Red sparks erupted from his wand, as the sparks formed their ritualistic tornado before erupting into a large Norweigian Ridgeback dragon. It landed on the ground, roaring, frightening the werewolves. "Now the slaughter begins."

Soon the dragon attacked the werewolves, and decimated the howling werewolves, leaving blood stained on the dirty undergrowth.

Leigh smiled when he dismissed his dragon, but that was when he heard a sudden clap from behind him, then stepping into view was someone he did not expect.

[Kim Rivers]

Kim stared at the professor. She was completley amazed. She had seen dragons in text books but she had never seen a live one before and she had never seen anyone conjure on up before. She was slightly nervous at first by the sight of the huge thing but soon overcame it. "How did you do that?" She asked, still staring at him.

[Prof Octavious Everritt]

Leigh turned and saw a Slytherin girl, one he had not met yet. He smiled, grimacing on the fact he should have been careful of where he was going.

"I conjured it from a special spell my father created, and that he taught me it during my own years as a wizard." Leigh explained, feeling his insides squirm. Another student who wants to learn it, Leigh thought. He sighed as he continued, "Would you like to learn it?"

[James McFinnigan]

"I've seen more impressive stuff, but that was cool too I suppose," Fin said with his usual smug grin as he jumped down from one of the many trees. "So, Addis, why come all the way out here just to mess around with conjuring stuff? Why not by the lake?"

[Kim Rivers]

Kim smiled sort of cheekily. She was quickly drawn to this professor and of course learning that spell could be interesting. She took a few steps forward. "Yeah id definatly like to learn it. Im Kim. I dont think weve met yet" She said holding the smile she had.

[Prof Octavious Everritt]

Leigh turned to see a Ravenclaw student suddenly appear. "Another one." Leigh sighed, quietly to himself. "Hello, Kim. And Fin, is it?" He looked at the two of them. "I'm currently instructing this spell in my class. Come to my second lesson soon, and you'll learn it. Now as for your question, Fin, the Lake is too close to the school grounds. Plus lately there has been a growing number of Dark Forces here in the Forbidden Forest, I suggest for your safety to return to the school. As the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, I feel it's my responsibility to scour this forest while we have no GamesKeeper."

[James McFinnigan]

"Naaaaah, I'll be fine," Fin said to the teacher.

[Kim Rivers]

Kim stood there. She wanted to go further into the forest. She had always wanted to walk around and see what dangers were in this place. Ill look again some other time. Maybe next time there wont be a professor here. "Alright. Im off. Ill see you in class sir" She turned on her heel and left.

[Prof Octavious Everritt]

"Ok, Kim see you in class. Fin, you must go as well." Leigh said. "You're supposed to be in your dormitory anyway. 5 points from Ravenclaw."

[James McFinnigan]

"What?!" Fin asked. "You take points from me, but not from the chick? That's not fair!" He made his way off angrily back to the campus.

[Kim Rivers]

Kim stopped on the edge of the forest and turned back round to face the professor. "When does the lesson start?" She asked unsure of when she was supposed to show up.

[Prof Octavious Everritt]

Leigh watched Fin walk away quickly, muttering under his breath. he quickly noticed that Kim had stopped and asked him a question. "My lesson starts as soon as it does. You'll know when." Leigh said, smiling.

[Kim Rivers]

"Right" she said. She stood there for a few more seconds then turned her back and left.
