Ciara gulped as her eyes widened at the thought of the plants being responsible. Regardless, she donned her dragon hide gloves which seemed to be several sizes too large, the opening brushing her elbows. She tottered to a row of seemingly harmless plants, careful to keep her watchful eyes on the net of vines that seemed to connect each plant to it's neighbor.

Patting her bag to make sure she has everything, Heart combs her way through the sea of plants. As she approaches the darker and damper part of the greenhouse, she notices some papers snared in one of the plants, and she carefully retrieves it, smiling at her triumph. When she looks at them to make sure, her face falls. They were her own papers: her schedule and her notes from some of her classes. She notices something slithering against her. Gulping, she turns her head.
A creeper lashes out at her, catching her by surprise, and she drops everything to the ground. Oh no...I must have wandered too far, she thinks as the creepers and tendrils of the plant seem to slowly converge on her. She quickly grabs her wand from the floor as a tendril curls itself around one of the girl's legs. She tries to shake the plant off of her, but to her horror, the plant did the opposite of what she thought it would do...It grabs her faster and tighter.
Attempting to keep her cool, she thinks back to her Herbology book, flipping through its pages through her mind. "The Devil's Snare..." she whispers. Okay Heart, you can do this. So relax yourself, let it come at you...but wait. It'll kill you sometime soon too! Panicking, she tries to recall how to fend off the Devil's Snare. P-professor said that...it liked dark and damp... Thinking out loud, she says, "Okay...so, what spell should I use?" Another wave of anxiety washes over her as the plant has nearly bound more than half of her body. Remembering to warn the others, she shoots red sparks into the air. The tendrils recoil slightly, but then resume their process of strangling her.
"Fire and light, that's it!" Muttering under her breath, she casts blue flames directed at the creepers and tendrils. They release themselves from her, cringing from the warmth, and Heart leaps up, gathering her belongings in a hurry. Looking at her surroundings, she realizes she is hopelessly lost, seeing that she is a fairly short girl. Recognizing a safer plant to hang around, she goes there, wondering what to do next.

"Oh, much better thank you...just be careful of the Devil's Snare in that area." Heart points to a direction, before returns to recollecting her things. "Hrm...I'm lost, perhaps you know the way back?"

At seeing the red sparks signalling danger, Ciara's head spins in that direction, holding her breath and praying that the caster would come out soon and unscathed. Seconds that felt like hours slowly ticked by in a relentlessly slow march.
Not wanting to take her eyes from the spot where the sparks had originated, Ciara left her position near the network of vine-like plants and meandered through the greenhouse. Her hand clutched her wand so tightly, she feared it might shatter, and yet, she continued on. Her eyes darted across the floor, covered with plant debris for any sign of movement from one of the more crafty plants. The only sound that came to her was the sound of her squelching footsteps over the damp ground.
She soon caught sight of two students from vastly different houses gathered around a seemingly harmless grouping of plants. She sighed and nearly put her wand away before a slithering in the debris captured her attention. It seemed the Devil's Snare had come back for revenge. "Lumos Solem!" Ciara cried, grabbing both girls by the wrist, not waiting to see if the spell had the desired effect.

"Oh,Yeah i do." Kitten Took out her wand and pointed at the ground in front of her. "Incarcerous" She Said. A long rope shot out of her wand,and then she yelled"Locomotor Rope"The rope lifted into the air."This will show you back,I have something I need to find."
Kitten directed the rope to where Heart could find her way back.

Ciara before the dawn At seeing the red sparks signalling danger, Ciara's head spins in that direction, holding her breath and praying that the caster would come out soon and unscathed. Seconds that felt like hours slowly ticked by in a relentlessly slow march.

Ciara cried, grabbing both girls by the wrist, not waiting to see if the spell had the desired effect. Kitten turned around and saw the Devil's Snare again attempting to get use."Thanks Ciara"

"That's really smart of you, thanks Kitten." Right when Heart tries to follow the rope she nearly walks to Ciara. "Oof, hi there, Ciara," she say skeptically looking at her wrist. Just registering what had happened, she blushes. "Thanks, Ciara...sorry for causing much trouble, you two."

Ciara wanted desperately to answer, but it seemed that her voice was caught in her throat after so much excitement. She nodded and gave a small smile.
At hearing Heart's apology, she waved her arms and shook her head, hoping that it came across that it was really no trouble.
She thought back to what she had just done and there was only one explanation, Hogwarts had turned her mad. Prior to that instant of bravery, Ciara would never had even contemplated attempting something like that herself.

*runs off to see what trouble the more curious students had got up to*
*mutters a spell at the devil's snare to make sure they retreat*
*with a sigh of relief she guides back My_Toxic_Kitten78, liveXdarkheartXevil and Ciara before the dawn*
Girls, are you alright? I see you take note of what your teachers taught you. But perhaps we shouldn't walk past the brightly lit areas when you're not too sure of what's lurking.
*walks back to the centre of the greenhouse and faces the class before speaking*
I think this should be a lesson to you all that we have to be careful of what is ahead and what we're not sure of. If we find out, we are more likely to be safe or at least more informed.
*turns towards the door and finds 3 latecomers*
Hello Gothika2009, Tsuki_fiire and alala984, we've not really started, the introduction and important things to know are on the board. Welcome to Herbology!
I have to admit, the venture around the devil's snare wasn't all about risk-taking, I found my notes.
Well done to those girls for perhaps stumbling upon them but also for getting out, 5 points for each of your houses!
And fortunately, I also found some spare textbooks, should anyone forget theirs.
*puts down tattered, slimy books*
And no, there isn't a spell to clean those magically damaged books.
But here's a question for 5 points for each answer: What spell can be used to reduce devil's snare if we know that they like dark and damp places?

Heart nods at Professor Stars, then raises her hand.
"I believe bluebell flames can be used...Perhaps incendio if you're careful enough?"
