potions are yummy.

[Autumn Rathjen]

Time for some potion making, man.

Still fumed about the murder of Elessar's family, Autumn decided to do something about it. She sat in the library for hours trying to think of something that she could do to help, because she knew that Elessar was innocent. He didn't eat her in his tiger animagus form at the Graduation Ceremony, so that meant that he was a good person, who wouldn't kill members of his own family! And whoever had reported that story was severely off their rocker, wouldn't you agree?

After trying to find a solution to her Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's problem, a book fell of from the shelf. Being a good civilian, the girl picked it up and put it back on the shelf. Or atleast, she was going to until she read the title on the binding of the book. Potions For Every Need. Hmm... THIS COULD BE CRAZY ENOUGH TO WORK! Without another thought, she snagged back the book and ran out to the lawns, looking for her best friend, Jared. Luckily, he was in their normal hang out spot. Without explaining, she pulled Jared up by his collar and dragged him aaaaall the way down to the Dungeons.

When they finally arrived, Autumn let go of Jared and slammed the book down on the nearest table. "We're going to help Elessar by making him a potion." She said simply.

[Sorry for the shortness, had to hurry]

[Jared Stone]

Jared was just standing in his usual hang out place when he saw his best friend Autumn come over with a book under her arm, he was just about to say hi when she grabed him by the colla and pulled him all through the school until they got to the dungons.


The she did a little exsplanation why we were here, it was about elessar, he rember reading somthing about his family in the newspaper, somthing about them dyeing.

"ok" he said playing along, he dident have a clue on what she wanted to do only make a potion.
"lets go" pulling out his wand he said "Accio couldron and potion set" with in a few seconds all his gear for potions were infront of him.

"what you wanna cook up" he asked with a smile.

[Autumn Rathjen]

"I don't know. That's why I brought this." Autumn said, pointing to the book she brought down with them. "If this book's lying, then I'm going to be mad." The girl was referring to the title of the book, of course. She pulled out her wand and pointed it to one of the many seats. "Accio stool!" Naturally, the stool came sliding along the ground in her direction. It made a super annoying sound, which made her cover her ears, and look over at Jared apologetically. Man, it was loud! It sounded like a chalk board when someone ran their nails along it. Oh, she hated that, too! THE MOST ANNOYING SOUNDS IN THE WORLD!

Anyways, she summoned another chair for her friend, then sat down and opened the book. The first page was something about an animal potion, which looked sort of freaky. And then there was a potion to spill secrets, a potion to turn you into someone else, and a potion to change your hair color. Pfft, like she needed that. She was already a Metamorphmagus! After minutes of searching and mental debating, she found one that looked interesting. Not what she was looking for, but it looked like it could work. "This one!" Autumn exclaimed, slamming her finger down on the page. "It's called a Ve-Veri... Veritaserum! It makes the drinker tell the truth, no matter who it is. This could work for Elessar!" The Gryffindor looked up at her friend, waiting for his opinion.

[Jared Stone]

Jared placed his hands over his ears as the chairs came screeching toward him and Autumn, "nice Autumn very nice" he said grimly, sitting down on his newly required chair, he watched as Autumn looked through it she took her sweet time doing it, admiring and grimacing at the different potions.

"veritaserum" he said "sounds like a plan" he pulled up a bag that helled all his potion ingredients and asked "so what do we need first" he asked while lighting the fire under the cauldron simultaneously.

[Autumn Rathjen]

"Yes, well it's too bad. You're my apprentice until this potion is done." Autumn replied bluntly, not looking away from her book. As she continued to read, a loud, surprised gasp escaped from her then closed lips. "A MONTH? WE DON'T HAVE A MONTH!" A frown spread across the girl's face, because she had thought that this potion was the one! The one that could save Elessar!! But it just so happened that the potion took one month to complete, and Autumn just didn't know if they had that kind of time. Sooner or later, they would probably be taking him to trial, or something...

Getting a bit aggravated, the Gryffindor let out a sigh and started flipping through the book again. "How can this be so hard?" The girl asked her friend. "I mean, all we need is one potion. Just one that could work!" Then, she landed on it. The page with another Perfect Potion hopeful. "Felix Felicis." Autumn read off. "A potion that gives the drinker an excessive amount of luck until the effects wear off. However, the potion should be taken in small portions, and should not be taken until the potion is complete."

[Jared Stone]

"A month" he said with a sight "That bad" he just sat there trying to rack his brain around something that could help, then he heard the words "felix felicis" was that a voice in his head. Hang on a minute it was Autumn, Darn, i wanted to be the smart one for once He thought.

"ok who do we use it on" he said a bit confused. "us to get us lucky in saving Elessa or Elessa to help him get lucky in winning the trial, Wait Autumn, we can't give it to Elessa, it against the law" he knew that Autumn liked Elessa but i don't think he would want Autumn to break the law to help him and get her banged up in Askerban as well.
Hang up a squiggle if she goes i go.

[Autumn Rathjen]

"I know!" Autumn exclaimed, looking up at her friend. "We don't have that kind of time, this needs to be done fast!" It was true. By the time this potion was done, Elessar could already be tried. Then that long month wait would have been for nothing! How bad would that have been? "We use it on Elessar, I think. Hopefully not us, because you'd test it."

And then he said it. Jared just had to say it. Did he have to ruin her thunder? "WHAT??" The Gryffindor yelled at Jared's smarty-pants-ness. "I DON'T WANT TO GO TO AZKABAN AT THE AGE OF TWELVE!! Jared, what are we gonna do??"

[Jared Stone]

"Wait, wait" he said. He had read that book before and he remembered something, it didn’t take a month to make the truth serum.
Snatching the book from Autumn, he hurried through the book. stopping at a couple of the potions thinking of some evil way of getting rid of the trial people, like shrinking them, "that sounds good" he said rising his eyebrow.

Flipping through some more pages, draught of sleep, send them all into a deep sleep, he could hear the little voice in his head doing the evil laugh he knew too well.
And then he hit the Veritaserum page, he scanned the page with his eyes, when he got to the bottom he smiled.

"Autumn, We can do the Veritaserum" he explained "Veritaserum is supposed to be made on a full moon, not a moon cycle" which he knew she was thinking about. “and Guess what, to day is our lucky day, the full moon is tonight". he stood there watching her ready for her to jump up and down but he wanted her to start he didn’t want it to go suddenly funny.

[Autumn Rathjen]

[But duuuude. It's strictly controlled by the Ministry, so we'd probably have to get permission first.]

Boy, did Jared sound smart all of a sudden. Like Einstein, or something. Although he wasn't a Ravenclaw, he was sort of smart, the girl had to admit. "I'm not sure it's a good idea, Jared. Maybe we should've asked Elessar before doing anything. Especially since I haven't taken Potions yet." Autumn shuffled around nervously in her seat, awaiting for her friend's reply. "What do you think, you've taken Potions since last year..."

[Jared Stone]

"Ok" she was totally right as she always dose. Makes him sound like a dumb ass. "I have an idea" he did a loud whistle and in a few minutes jeramy shows up with a delightful twerp, "oh yer you haven’t met Autumn yet have you" he said to his sparrow hawk that was know sitting on his shoulder nipping his ear, but as soon as he heard the word Autumn he looked up and Jared could swear he could see a smile go across his birds face, "Autumn this is Jeramy" he said "fastest bird in the west" he said in his best cowboy impression with if he would say so himself was very good.

"Go get Elessa" he said placing a quick note in his pouch, which was a little back pack that sits snug under his wings, he made it himself.

"All we can do now is wait" he smiled.

[Autumn Rathjen]

Autumn sighed at what Jared said, but was extremely excited when Jeremy appeared. "I've met him before. Remember that little duel we had when we first met? AND NO, I'M NOT GOING TO DUEL WITH YOU AGAIN." Then she listened to his plan, and it actually wasn't that bad. "Make sure he's here quick!" Autumn yelled after him, because time was of the essence!

[Elessar Garrison]

Elessar walked into Dungeon number 5 with a small bird perched on his finger (assuming its small enough). He saw Autumn and Jared, who looked like they were awaiting him.

"I'm here, you two have the stuff I need?"

[Autumn Rathjen]

And in came Elessar! Jared actually had a good idea! Autumn looked at Elessar, then back at Jared, wondering if he would be able to tell him what was up. As Jared was seemingly mute, the Gryffindor sighed and hopped off of the stool, then carefully picked up the Potions book as if it were a precious jewel. "Well, we have everything set up, but it may take a while. Jared said that tonight's the full moon, but still. It may take a while. I haven't taken Potions yet, so that may be a minor set back."

[Elessar Garrison]

Elessar handed Autumn with a worn potions book with E.S.G. on the inside cover.

"You will need this book. It's my potions book from my old school. Oh yes, I have another mission for the two of you. You might also need another member of your team."

[Jared Stone]

Jared watched as Elessar came in asking if we had the stuff, OMG people Elessar is a druggy, take nothing from him.
Jared took the Book from Autumn and found the page, it had every detail in how to make it (well i hope it dose) he scammed through the book and saw that it has to be bathed in moon light for 2 hours exactly and then removed for another 2 hours to simmer down, "Elessar this i going to take up to 5 hours to make" he explained as he got out the ingredients that he and Autumn needed, "we might as well make the first part of the potion and then we have 2 hours to do your mission while it bathes in moon light, but we have to be back to move it into complete darkness afterword" he explained, "so what is this mission.
