As she slowly opened her eyes, Helen realised that she had failed - though one of her favourite colours, red was not what she needed right now. She hadn't expected it to work anyway - she'd never tried any offensive magic before. She now had to wait for the sword to turn pink again before a retry.

Lena
For the next few tries, the sword Lena was trying to 'detonate' continued to glow red. Arriving on her 10th attempt, however, she took a deep breath and told herself. Ok, Lena, focus. You can do this, it’s a simple exploding spell! She raised her wand arm a bit higher and narrowed her eyes, focusing on the sword, imagining it was exploding. Reducto!! She repeated, and after a few seconds, the blade began to glow a greenish aqua. She had to admit it wasn’t completely green, but it was greenish.. It was, however, much better then pink, and so she happily continued to attempt to cast the spell properly. With each attempt, her spell casting improved, the colour which the sword glowed coming closer and closer to green, and on her 18th attempt, Lena finally concluded that she had successfully cast Reducto, for the blade now glowed a beautiful shade of emerald. She smiled to herself as she continued to practice the spell and waited for the class to be dismissed.

Andrew opened the door quietly as he did not want to disturb the class currently in session. "H-hello?" He said quietly. "Mr. SaDiablo? I'm Andrew Hark. I'm a first year and new to this school and only got here yesterday and was wondering if you could tell me what the lessons were?"

After several retries Helen was getting nowhere - red really was her colour... "Professor, is there any reason why this should be happening? I know that I've never tried offensive magic before, but to only completely fail at it everytime is uncanny..." Helen looked downtrodden, and felt like a useless sack of potatoes, and then felt worse when she realised that at least if she were potatoes she'd taste good...

(How so?)  Daemon SaDiablo
Auror and Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts
"SaDiablo sanguis forver purus donec montes deiectos." Daemon looked up as his door opened. "Welcome, Mr Hark. We was just trying the Reducto spell. Please find a sword and cast the spell. If it turns red, you were unsuccessful. If it goes green. You managed it. It may take you a while to manage but if you start to lose heart, call me."
The call from the girl who hasn't introduced herself made him glance around. He strode over, noting the look. Her morale was flagging and she was probably getting fed up. "Ah. My nameless student. Right. Take deep breaths the important thing, until you learn it, is to be calm. Let yourself be calm and focus on just the magic in you" he pointed at the sword. "now just focus on the sword. Nothing matters but that sword. Focus on it turning green. WILL it to turn green when you enchant your spell."
The professor crossed his arms patiently and smiled. "Now you try."
"SaDiablo blood will forever be pure, until the mountains are cast down"

(I'm going to assume that I'm the unknown girl, seeing as I'm the only actual failure here - though I have mentioned that my name is Helen Connell smile )
Helen listened carefully to her professor and tried again...She willed herself in to her wand, as she always tried to do - as if it were a part of her... And when she opened her eyes, the sword was glowing a greenish colour, though it was still only faint. She somehow felt drained however, and didn't know why - did offensive magic really cost this much? Or was it just her? "Is that better sir?" She nearly gasped at him - it really had taken a lot out of her.

(Oh sorry) Professor Daemon SaDiablo
Auror and Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts
"SaDiablo sanguis forver purus donec montes deiectos." Daemon put a hand on the females shoulder a moment then drew it off. "You did well. You seem tired. Take a short break and sit." he smiled kindly, making it clear it wasn't an insult. "I'm proud of you."

Caiden had never taken Defense Against the Dark Arts seriously at the
school he first took it at, so why would he possibly take this one seriously
as well? His father was a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher himself,
and he had done tremendous studies in the United States, so it all came
very naturally to the kid. When it was his turn to be given a sword to try, he
concentrated on the sword to some extent, and he gave the incantation a
shot. "Reducto!" When the sword did nothing, he assumed that meant that
he was neither wrong, nor right. He just kept giving it a shot, when the third
time, it glowered red. He was just not focused enough.
