Lena took a pair of gloves and carefully put them on. It seemed that it would be a very "hands-on" lesson. Anything's better then textbooks. Lena thought. She looked down at the plant infront of her. Professor Zanther had said something about cutting withered stalks.
Slowly, Lena picked up a pair of shears and braced herself. At the last moment, Lena considered if she should ask the Professor what should happen if she accidently cut off her finger, but decided against it. It was a stupid question.
Raising her shears, Lena began to prune.

Following the professor's instructions, Rori got up out of her seat and grabbed a pair of gloves and pruning shears. She carefully put on the gloves and made her way to the end of the table once again.
She looked at the plant with curiousity. How the hell am I meant to do this? Withered stalks, ok look for withered stalks.
She began to prune off the wilted branches, she had made quite a pile of them in the first 5 minutes. Rori took her pile to the compose and then continued to prune.

Eugene loved the idea of a practical lesson, not that he didn't enjoy theory he just preferred hands-on lessons.
He got his gloves and shears and began pruning away the withered stalks.

Sam got up out of his seat, after the Professor hand finished speaking, and went to get his gloves and pruning shears. While walking back he carefully put the gloves on. 'Ok, withered stalks. Oh every stalk looks wilted.' Sam thought, as he started to prune the plant.

Anthony went over and got his shears and gloves. Carefully puttiong the gloves on he stared blankly at the plant for a moment. He started to prune all the withered stalks. After about five minutes or so he had nearly pruned all of the plant; Well the places he needed to.

Following the lead of every student in the class, Dael hardly paid attention to what he was doing. It was lucky that he didn't shear off any parts he wasn't supposed to, but a sharp pain in his finger snapped him back to reality.
"Ow," he muttered softly, looking down at the blood beginning to slide down his finger. Dael stared at it a moment longer before returning to his distant land of dreams.

Charlene couldn't believe it. She was late! Never in her life had she been late. Turns out making her sister go to class on time made her late instead. Lately it seemed as if her and her sister were switching roles.
She walked into the classroom nervously and stood awkwardly in the doorway. They were pruning the dead stalks off the shrivelwig.
"I'm sorry i'm late professor."

"Detention!" Zanther yelled at the newcomer, "Do not EVER come to my class when it is nearly over. I will NOT tolerate such tardiness. 5 points will be taken from your house and you shall meet with me tomorrow evening in my office for you detention, you shall attend a detention with me every night till the end on the week is that clear." She boomed.

Rori didn't dare laugh at the situation, Zanther was too furious already Rori didn't want to shake it up any more. She finished pruning the plant and quickly put the scraps in the compost. She cleaned up her area, and stood silently.

Eugene kept his head down as Zanther yelled. He moved swiftly to the compost and placed his scraps into it. When he got back to his place he inspected his plant then decided that all the stalks that needed to be cut, where in fact gone.

Sam wanted to laugh so much at the girl but he managed to keep the smile off his face. When he had finished pruning he put all the scraps in the compost. The compost didn't stink at all. Sam thought there must of been some spell or charm on the bin. He put away his shears with the other pairs. They were all lined up neatly but some spots were vacant due to other students using them. The gloves were alsot neatly packed away but some of the gloves were broken and Sam swore he saw some blood on one.
Sam walked across the half dirt covered greenhouse floor and back to his area, next to Rori. He waited patiently for his dismissal. He didn't want to make the Professor more fuming than what she was at this present time and by the looks of it, neither did anyone else.

When Professor Zanther started to boom at the Griffindor student Anthony gritted his teeth and started to tidy up. He put his cuttings in to the compost and pu away his gloves and shears.
Geez. Professor Zanther does keep this greehouse tidy
He looked at all the neat hung up shears and the neatly packed away gloves. He liked the Greenhouse, it was a peacful place.
Well not when Zanther is yelling.He thought.
Anthony looked down at the rest of the Greenhouse and outside. There were different kinds of plants everywhere and Anthony had worked on nearly every single one of them. He felt proud but upset that this was his last year of his Hogwarts school life. Anthony always tried to look on the bright side of things and he did when it came to him and leaving this school forever. He thought he might become a teacher here if Berkelely needed one.
He walked back to his place at the back of the table and cleaned all the mess that he had made there. Which was very little as Anthony never really like messiness. When he was done he waited for his next instruction, which Anthony and a whole lot of other people were hoping, was leave.

Of course, Lena smirked just a little at the foolish Gryffindor. She got an odd sort of satisfaction out of seeing Proffessor Zanther angry at a Gryffindor. She pretended to be very interested in her plant while the Gryffindor got what she deserved. She couldn't wait to see the look on the student's face as everyone stared at her!

Zanther sighed angryly. Most of the students were finished and had packed up. She smiled at them for doing the right thing, unlike Miss. Montreal over there.
Zanther went to her desk and sat at it. She put her head in her hands, she never like to get angry but when the occasion called for it, she dished it out well and good.
She waved her wand, the writting on the board disappeared and the remaining tools and gloves were packed away neatly.
"Class dismissed." She announced casually, "Oh and Ms. Montreal I shall see you in my office tomorrow evening for your punishment, understood?" She didn't wait for an answer. "Off with you then."

"Yes ma'am." Charlene nodded and hurriedly exited the classroom, making a mental note to kill her sister, when she realized that wasn't the problem. She needed to talk to someone, but who?
Tim!She thought as she hurried away to find him.
