Bahyia lingered by the doorway until she was joined by an apologetic Prue. She turned briefly to the other student and watched her scramble towards a seat before casting an apprehensive look around the room. Her eyes sought an empty at the front of the class and she inhaled deeply. Bahyia preferred staying at the back of classrooms where no one could see her. She gave a sigh and slowly marched towards the desk. Bahyia quietly slipped in the seat and opened the book on the desk. By the time Ambrosia was asking questions, Bahyia was engrossed in reading the first chapter. |

Ambrosia smiled proudly before speaking, "This is true, Most ways of identifying a muggle have been confused since the bloodlines have begun changing. Perhaps though we could see if you students could identify muggle or wizard." She let her wand swirl around for a moment as two figures appeared in the room. Both were dressed differently and their bodies languages differed as well. Ambrosia turned to the students and spoke again, "Alright, So tell me.. Which is the muggle?" She raised an eyebrow curious of the answer.

Prudence decided to speak up. She had been silent for the first thirty minutes of the class and she felt like it was sort of illegal. They were only a few students in that class and she felt that the a professor as nice as her deserved a class who participated and paid attention. So, without really having a clue who the muggle was, she raised her hand, waited for the teacher’s gaze to land on her and spoke.
“I think it would be hard to tell which of the two is magical at first glance.” She started, making up her answer as she spoke. “But, I think it would be possible to really tell which one is magical once I get to spend some time with either one of them.” She bit her lip and tried to guess who the muggle was since it was the professor’s real question. “But, for now, I strongly feel that the one standing at your right side is the muggle.” She sat down, quite sure of her answer, after all, it was her seer instincts that told her that and so far it proved to be reliable.

If Lars was challenged by the earlier question, the next one was worse. He couldn't really distinguish between the muggle and wizard easily since he wasn't really used to being around with muggles. He then carefully watched the two figures in terms of movements and clothing. He then raised his hand.
"The one over there," he said, gesturing to the right side, "is the muggle. It's because he dresses differently from the other figure who dresses like our lot," he added. "Besides, the other figure was using a wand to enchant stuff while the other one was relying on something else other than a wand." He was not really sure whether he was right but since the question boggled him, he couldn't do anything other than guess.

Bahyia lifted her gaze and looked at both pictures in less than a second. In that short period of time, she managed to take in all the details of both. Her eye brow rose as she listened to the two Ravenclaws say that the wizard was the one on the right. Face-to-face Bahyia had no problem differentiating between muggles and wizards. True they were physically similar but their blood smelled different. "It's a trick question," she said. "Neither of them is a muggle." She closed her book and placed it on the desk. Bahyia stood up and walked towards the pictures.
While she explained her earlier words, she pointed to the places she was mentioning. "The left one is very obviously a wizard, like Stouner explained. The right one although very similar to a muggle has mismatched muggle shoes and his wand is mildly visible from his back pocket." Bahyia paused and passed her hand over the entire left picture while adding, "And he is standing stiffly. Uncomfortable in the restraining muggle clothes." Bahyia gave a small shrug and walked back to her seat. She sat down and without waiting to see which answer was the right one, she opened the book and continued reading. |

Ambrosia looked proudly from each student as they answerd and then spoke softly, "Although you two had logical explanations, Bahyia you are correct. If one is to know completely just what someone is, they would need to pay attention to not only appearences but attitude and body language." She smiled to the young half vampire and then spoke again, "Alright, If you all would open your books and turn to the first page, I would like if you all read the first chapter of the book and then we can try this once more." She smiled as she moved around behind her desk.

The moment she heard the Gryffindor’s reply, she knew what she said was wrong. Well it was, at least, half wrong. She thought one of the images was magical and it turned out that both were magical. This made her wonder if she was still flawed in terms of her intuitive abilities due to her forced late blooming in the craft of seers. Her mother told her her ability would not work right for a while since it was suppressed for a long time. The bracelet prevented her from seeing any visions during the night and from hearing voices during the day.
She did not have the aforementioned bracelet on now and from time to time, inside the classroom, she heard voices that no one else heard. She ignored them… they were kind of creepy. She wondered when she was ever going to get used to the voices in the day. You don’t have to… once everything comes back to normal, the potion would keep out the voices. Then she saw Lars in her peripheral and wondered how in the world was she ever going to help him. Turning to face him, she gave him a smile that said, we got it wrong.
Then, she realized she’d been oblivious to everything that was happening in class. She followed the professor’s words and started reading the first chapter. [/size] |

Lars knew that from the moment the student from Gryffindor answered, he realized that whatever he said was wrong. Come to think of it, he was just merely guessing and he was not using any form of logical thinking as he was making up his answer. However, what made him tick was the fact that she easily knew the answer, while Prue who has seer abilities, could not do so. This made him wonder of the true nature of the said student.
When Prue smiled at him, he immediately knew what she was thinking. Both of them got the answer wrong and he just smiled back, which said that we'll definitely get it next time. He then realized that he haven't even opened his book yet. He then proceeded to turn the pages to read the first chapter.

Bahyia looked at the professor with a raised eye brow, and gave a brief nod when she called her name. The Gryffindor was startled to be smiled at and it took her some seconds before returning the favour. Bahyia propped her elbows on the desk and leaned forwards looking mildly amused. She was [naturally] a very fast reader and was already half way through the book. Bahyia placed it face down on the table and started looking around the classroom, observing each one of the students. |

Helena was listening attentively to the teacher as she eyed the first chapter of the book. She did not answer her last question for she found it hard to answer a question with doubts. It was a trick question, and she knew it. The failed attempts of two ravenclaws attested to that. She simply sighed and shook her head as her attention shifted from the professor to the annoying boy from her house. She still owed him an apology. [/size][/color] |
