TRANSFIGURATION STUDENTS, REPORT HERE!

[Chase Christen]

"AAAAALRIGHT! Welcome to Privet Drive, students. I'd give you more of a tour ... but we really don't have much time. Our help is desperately needed, you see. Now, follow me into the wardrobe ... and put these coats on. Don't want you kids getting frostbitten or ... anything ..." Pulling a coat on herself, Chase led her students into the house, then straight to a large, wooden wardrobe. "Alright, class. Prepare yourselves." And, with that, Chase led them into the world of Narnia.

"And here we are. As I told you, Narnia is in a state of endless winter ... but we're going to stop that. Like I told you, anybody who tries to overthrow the White Witch is turned into an ice statue -- the most important leaders of change have been turned into ice, in fact. Without them, the rebirth of Narnia can never come. What we have to do, class, is turn these statues back into beings ... and hey, guess what? We can do that, 'cause we're in a Transfiguration class! It's awesome, I know.

"Anyway, here's the spell you'll have to use: just point your wand straight at the ice statue you're transfiguring and shout 'Glacies Utres!' As soon as they're transfigured, explain to them what happened and let them go. You can transfigure as many people as you like -- the more the better, however.

"That's not all we're going to do, though. I mean, if we leave these people to their own devices, they'll just get transfigured back into ice statues, won't they? We have to help them out with -- you guessed it! -- some good ol' transfiguration! How will we do this, you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you!

"Hopefully you guys are pretty practiced at self-transfiguration from last lesson, 'cause you're gonna need to be pretty good at it! As legend goes, it was Aslan that slew the White Witch ... so, I figure, how else to get rid of her then transfigure ourselves into lions? I mean, Gryffindors already know that lions get the job done best, but the rest of you haven't figured it out quite yet, so hopefully this'll help you on your journey to the truth," Chase said with a wink.

"The spell you'll use to transfigure yourself into a lion is 'Ego Utleo.' Once you've transfigured yourself into the beast ... well, just go crazy on her. Claw, bite ... do what a lion would do! And definitely try and work together. Once you've defeated the White Witch, use the spell 'Leo Utego' to transfigure yourself back into a human. Once you're human, you're free to leave the class and go back to our world.

"Alright ... that's it! Good luck, class! Go get 'em!"

OKAY! So, I realize this might be a bit confusing. <_< I'm too lazy to summarize it right now, though, so just PM me if you're confused. If I'm not answering on Chase, PM me on Lily as well, because I usually only go on one account or the other ... Chase's username is "dancingthroughlife" and Lily's username is "lilyluna." Have fun, guys!

OH AND, YES. Since few of you have replied and it's sort of a long lesson, I'm extending this to lesson nine.

[Annalisse Childs]

When she touched down on Privet Drive, Anna rushed into the wardrobe after Chase without even a glance around Privet Drive. Narnia was what she wanted to see, not this lame neighborhood. She was almost on Chase's heels as she followed her into the wardrobe, pulling on one of the coats as they walked through to the snowy world of Narnia. It was indeed freezing cold, but she barely noticed it in her awe of actually being here. She listened to Chase as she examined their surroundings, forgetting that there was an evil witch here wreaking havoc. It was just so prettyy.

Anna mumbled the spell under her breath as Chase said it in hopes that it would help her remember it when the time came to actually use it. Before long Chase was done speaking and explaining and it was time to use it, Anna took her wand and ran off in pursuit of ice statues. She came into a clearing that looked like an art museum or something, all these statues frozen with agonized looks on their faces. Repeating the spell in her head, she rushed over to an oddly large mouse, for all the big bears and cheetahs were a bit intimidating to be transfiguring for her first try. With a wave of her want she shouted, "Glacies Utres!" and excitingly enough the icy mouse was all of a sudden a very stiff non-icy mouse.

"Hi!" she squeaked as the animal stretched out its arms and legs, who knows how long it's been sitting there motionless. "Um, so I'm supposed to explain.. this White Witch bi- er.. lady, froze you up, I'm sure you know that right? Yea, so we're here to help you! It'd be fabulous if you could tell all these other guys not to eat me once I de-freeze them," she said hopefully, giving the little guy a smile before turning around to her next patient. While the bear looked quite intimidating, it would probably be very helpful for it to be unfrozen, so she stepped up to it and recited the spell. As the bear started to move again she backed off, but it simply looked at her and well, it looked like it was smiling as it thanked her and ran off once she gave her little spiel.

The girl ran around the area, shooting spells this way and that way and explaining to all of them what had happen and reassuring them that they'd beat the witches butt. Thankfully they were all perfectly grateful and not one of them tried to eat her or anything, though there was a rather disgruntled dwarf that she came across. She saw creatures that she hadn't even imagined existed, as well as some normal creatures that one simply wouldn't expect to meet outside of a zoo. Narnia was so awesome, man. Maybe she could ask if she could give up being a witch and live here for the rest of her life.. how cool would that be?!

Since she had to leave some creatures for the rest of the class to help, Anna ended her crusade with a very nice badger and quickly pointed her wand at herself and muttered, "Ego Utleo!" The sensation of turning into a lion was funny, but not as weird as turning into a pair of scissors. It took her a minute, but eventually she was able to run even faster on four legs than she could on two as a human, and she was following the rest of the troops to the battle. Was there a battle going on? Chase hadn't mentioned one, but she just kind of assumed since they were going off to defeat the witch.

Upon seeing the witch, Anna slowed down a little. She looked pretty ferocious, scarier than any witch she'd ever seen, and she'd obviously seen a lot of them being one herself. What would happen to her if she got turned into an icicle? What would happen to her if she died? Well, her lifes goal was to save the world, and while this wasn't her own world it was just as good. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.. but hopefully she wouldn't be alone in trying to defeat her. Even though normal superheros could do everything all by themselves, she wasn't exactly on that level yet. She was maybe sidekick material by this point, but even sidekicks had to suck up their fears and get on with it, right? Nodding her big lion head, she bounded over to the carriage the witch was in and jumped, flying through all the air all majestically and stuff until she collided with the with and knocked her over the side of the vehicle.

[Isabel C. Madden]

Isabel was once again dazzled when they arrived. She took the goat and put it on, following others to the land of Narnia. It indeed was beautiful. She had so few contacts with snow, that she giggled to herself as she had the change to touch it. She listened carefully what the teacher said and mumbled the spell to herself. It was quite hard to remember but Isabel tried to do her best. She followed one Ravenclaw girl and helped her with the spell. There were so many people and creatures in need of their help. She de-freezed a little dwarf, a rabbit whom was intimidatingly big. And if Isabel saw right, it had a green tail. 'Oh well,' she mumbled to herself. 'In fairy tales everything's possible.' At last she thought that she had done enough, she tried to transform herself into lion.

'EGO UTLEO!' she squeaked. She felt weird, she was now furry and...She had a frigging TAIL!!!! She moved it and it was fun, she giggled again. Sure, she had not a mirror near her, so she didn't know that she was only a half lion. Her face was hers.
She followed the others and saw the witch. 'YOU ARE GOING DOWN!' she screamed furiously and ran like hell itself was chasing her.

[Lexi Mara Kern]

They'd arrived in privet drive )who would have thought that the wardrobe that was the doorway into Narnia would live there now, but anyway as Chase had said it definitely seemed to. So they were to go into Narni and help to defeat the white witch and free some of the people that she'd turned into statues, that could be fun.

Quite eager to begin the task Lexi hurried through the wardrobe and shivered at the sudden cold of the place she had stepped into. Wow so this was Narnia was it?? Cool! It was so pretty, the woods, the snow, it was like a fairy tale, which in a way Lexi supposed that it actually was, go figure. Well so they had to find where all of these statues were right? And that was the witches palace wasn't it? The whole, 'see those two hills? My house is between those hills.' bit...THat should be easy enough and they were all going to together. A whole bunch of witches and wizards (even teenage ones) were bound to be some match for just one witch with an ego problem.

After a little time walking they all managed to get to where there were so many statues it was like being in a musem, this must be the place Lexi figured. And as the rest of the class spread out and started getting to work freeing the ice people Lexi also headed for the nearest batch of statues to her. The first one was rather small and had a long tangled beard, must be a dwarf she figured as she waved her wand and muttered, "'Glacies Utres! Um hi..." She said with an uncertain smile as the ice melted and the dwarf began to move once again. "I'm Lexi and um well, you've been turned into ice by the white witch, but I'm a witch too and I saved you." She grinned.

It took the dwarf a moment or two to get the picture and nodded before Lexi hurried off to a few more statues. Soon she had freed another two dwarves, a faun, a centaur and a family of badgers. Although this part was definately fun and helpful Lexi was beginning to feel cold and wet and wanted to try something different, becomming a lion might just be the ticket.

So with the incantation "Ego Utleo" and a gesture of her wand towards herself Lexi felt that strange tingling that came with self transfiguration and was suddenly standing on four paws and when she opened her mouth to speak nothing but a large roar came out. Oh this was going to be fun. She crouched into a pounce and then bounded towards the witch, roaring her head off, it was fun to be a lion.

[Onikah Dawn]

Arriving in privet drive she followed suit approaching the wardrobe and walked through. Suddenly she was surrounded by a land of snow and white wonder. Walking up a a statue of an elf she pointed her wand and shouted 'Glacies Utres'. Slowley but shurly the uce started to melt from the head down.

Flitting free from the ice the fairy looked at Onikah with a look of intent to damage. "WAIT WAIT!" She hollared. "you dont understand! the white witch did this and we are off to destroy her now, come along if you please."

Raising her wand she pointed at herslef and shouted "Ego Utleo".suddenly she felt her body begin to shift

[Melanie Brooks]

Melanie just got down to Privet Drive. She remembered that Harry Potter lived there for some time. She wasn't going to cry not again.

She put on the very nice warm coat the professor had given her and they were off.

When she got into Narnia it truly was a spectacular place. She was amused by the whole thing even if it was snowing.

She listened to the professors directions on what they were supposed to do. She was excited to help these people and slay the White Witch once and for all.

She wanted to start as soon as possible. She went up to a statue and muttered the spell "'Glacies Utres", and the spell was undone. She told the creature that the White Witch did this to him.

Melanie helped out as many as she could.

She then transformed herself into a lion muttering "'Ego Utleo"and felt her body transforming into a lion. She tested her newly transfigured form.

She then decided however, that dilly-dalling wasn't going to solve her problems. She went ahead and found the White Witch. She and along with her classmates fought with her.
