"Let's see if you wasted your time becoming a brainless son." I nudged Sans in his side. He just shot me a side glare. Our first exam was with Professor Magonia, the head of the magic department. Both Sans and I decided to take up minors and electives for fun to accompany our majors. It was hard work juggling a battle-based major and extra classes but it was definitely worth it. While I took up Urban Naturalica, Sans decided to take up Mythological Beast Taming. 725Please respect copyright.PENANAJPSM0xQGlq
"You already know I'm going to be the top of my class," Sans said as he winked at me.725Please respect copyright.PENANAtC3NbdDNQx
"Yeah, yeah. Let's just wait until the results are posted." 725Please respect copyright.PENANAoa7Lx5YBg2
Before we knew it, Sans and I were at the grand entrance leading into Professor Magonia's hall. It was a truly enchanting place. The entryway was a large pair a purple double doors with sick vines intertwining each other across the way. Spotted here and there were lovely gold roses. It was a look wonderfully fit for Professor M. The two of us joined the crowd of the other people waiting to enter.725Please respect copyright.PENANAnqPcQFj1Kz
"Good morning my lovely pupils!" Her voice rang out. "I wish you all the best of luck on your exams." Professor Magonia spoke as she walked through the large crowd. The sound of her boots clicking on the ground echoed throughout the vicinity. She stopped in front of the entryway and turned around to face us. "I'm not saying this simply because you're my students." Her slanted eyes revealed a deadly glare while her mouth was up turned in a smirk. "I'm genuinely worried. You all know me. I won't make this easy for you." Groans erupted throughout the crowd. The perky magic geek simply laughed. With an elaborate swooping motion of her heavily decorated arm, the golden roses glowed and sparkled from the bottom to the top and the deep purple doors opened up with a booming creek. 725Please respect copyright.PENANA8Uxnp1V6Lt
We all poured in with Professor Magonia leading the way. We passed all the classrooms and ended up in the auditorium. While everyone got seated, Magonia took center stage with the rest of her associates. From left to right it was: Fane Crosper, Lulina Redman, Jedd Valkr, and Gia Gaulks. Professor stood in the middle. 725Please respect copyright.PENANA2fFK3cFUp0
A bright voice rang out for the second time today. "As you all know, today marks the start of your lives as true Yanzenians. Be true to who you are and remember your purpose. Do not disappoint. I have high hopes for most of you. Let the exams begin!" A mixture of applause and something that sounded like strange war cries filled the auditorium. With that, each student stood up and went to meet their instructors. While Sans headed over to his group with Magonia, he turned his head back and gave me a mocking pout, mouthing that he missed me already. Rolling my eyes, I headed over to mine with Jedd. He was an average looking guy in his mid-twenties. For him to be that young and work for Magonia, he must've really been something in his younger years. Now that I think about it, all of Magonia's associates weren't much on the old side, but Jedd was the most surprising. 725Please respect copyright.PENANAlTtliGZSxw
Once everyone had gathered, he took us out of the auditorium and into the greenhouse. It wasn't really our classroom, but it might as well be with how much time we spend in there. As the class got seated, Jedd took his position at the podium at the front of the room.725Please respect copyright.PENANATrwuzmNDJO
"Mornin' Greenheads." That was his nickname for his students. "As you're already aware, I don't do traditional exams. Today I have something special planned. What you do is all dependent on you. I won't give you a single instruction. Show me whatcha got. You may work in groups if you wish but that will mean that you get graded twice as hard since you had extra help. I'll give you about ten to fifteen minutes to prepare and start brainstorming. After that, you'll have an hour and a half to finish your project. I wish you the-" 725Please respect copyright.PENANAO74DZIdWI6
"Best of luck. We know!" The whole class spoke in unison. 725Please respect copyright.PENANATdEAo7ljeR
Jedd let out a short chuckle and looked down. Looking back up he said, "And that is why I love you all." He walked over to his desk and sat down while reaching for a book about potions. He snapped his fingers and yelled out, "Begin! You know what to do." As if on cue, I turned to my right and met eyes with Kalixa, my closest friend in this class. We didn't even have to say anything to each other. We smiled, nodded, and got to work. I went straight to the herb garden while Kal ran over to the library. Once back at our station, our real planning started. 725Please respect copyright.PENANAeg6MTJC1sJ
"How about we come up with a universal organic poison neutralizer?" I asked. 725Please respect copyright.PENANA2tR2qlaZzR
Kal began to twirl her ash brown curls around her finger. "Good, that's a great suggestion, but I was thinking of something more like a potion that allows people, including myself, to ward off unwanted attention from guys, yet make all the lovelies fall head over heels." She looked like she'd gone off into a dreamland. 725Please respect copyright.PENANAMt2UsZW5OG
"Very funny Kal but one, we only have an hour and a half and two, that's unnecessary since you don't get much attention from guys anyway." She replied with a punch to my arm. I laughed. "By the way, you and Sans would make great friends."725Please respect copyright.PENANAN5jRFC1UY4
"Sans. You mean that guy with the blonde pony from Mythological Beast Taming?" 725Please respect copyright.PENANA1CVwZKrPwq
"Yeah, that's the one." 725Please respect copyright.PENANAETLri8BJVn
"He seems cool. Introduce me on one of my visits from Gurir."725Please respect copyright.PENANArLtcvVAZoh
"Will do. Now let's get back to work before we run out of time."725Please respect copyright.PENANAMRonVtQ9Dg
"Sure thing but I do have one question. What's so special about a poison neutralizer? Those already exist for their respective poisons. Not to mention the higher-ups who don't even need them due to a gained tolerance." 725Please respect copyright.PENANACFHRXNNO9c
"I get your point but what's special about it is it's benefits. Regular poison neutralizers in Yanzen are known to be excruciatingly painful, as they force the poison out of your body through an ancient method that includes raising your sensitivity so that your body will almost force it out on its own. Plus, there aren't neutralizers for everything. Some poisons are incurable. I want to fix all of that. I've been studying it for a couple years now. It seems all poisons, that I know of, have one ingredient in common. What makes a poison more effective is the amount of this ingredient as well as how it reacts with other variables. Alone, the variables don't mean much, but when together with the ingredient, the reaction that occurs can result in an awfully slow and painful death. Over my years of study, I've found various neutralizers and now what I must do is create a combination that works for all poisons." 725Please respect copyright.PENANAuz3tA4MAU3
Kalixa looked like her brain had gone into overdrive. "That was a lot of information, but I think I get it. You know, this all sounds pretty complicated. You thought my idea would take over an hour and a half? What about yours?"725Please respect copyright.PENANADCrTDG2igO
"Oh, come on now Kal." I reached out and smoothed down her hair. "I always have tricks up my sleeve. And about your idea, it's beyond all science and logic. There's no way it could be accomplished." 725Please respect copyright.PENANAzLVFG1PHOe
Kal crossed her arms with a look that said I'll show you. 725Please respect copyright.PENANAyOOFZTf9Yd
"Alright, everyone!" Jedd called out. "Your fifteen minute warm up is over." His glasses peaked over the lastest issue of Potions Galore. "Let the test begin!"
