~Professor Snape~
Severus entered his Potions Dungeon & proceeded to get the room ready for the first class of the term. He made sure that there was an adequate number of spare cauldrons, as he just knew that some of the students wouldn't have thought far enough ahead to have proper ones ready.
After he was finished he posted a sign on the door for the students to read before entering class...

Draco entered the room with a smile upon his face. He always enjoyed Professor Snape's classes..he always ended up yelling at the Gryffindors.
He glanced at the sign on the way in, and proceeded to smile at his professor as he passed him on the way to his seat. "Good afternoon Professor." Draco took his seat, and took out all of the potions equipment that he would need for the class.

~Cedric~
Cedric entered the Potions class and saw that there were already students here. By the looks of it, they were mostly Slytherins. He passed the Professor's desk. "Good afternoon Professor. Just to let you know, I am beginning to feel better now. Thank you." Cedric proceeded to take his seat, and take out all of the necessary equipment that he would need for the assignment.

~Professor Snape~
Professor Snape looked up as the dungeon door swung open. Malfoy. He nodded toward the boy as he took his seat. "Good day, Draco."
Some more students entered the room chatting amongst themselves while finding their seats. His forehead creased sharply as he turned his attention towards them. "Silence!" The students stopped surprised & then quickly sat down with no further comment.
The next student to enter the room was Cedric Diggory. He eyed him to see how the boy looked. Suddenly Cedric mentioned feeling better & thanked him. Severus' eyes darkened a bit. "I'm glad you are feeling better Mr. Diggory. Perhaps you should thank the school nurse though."

~Laurasia Malfoy~
Laurasia quickly entered her potions class with a wide smile. This was by far her favorite & best subject. She nodded towards Professor Snape before taking her seat at the front of the class & pulling her supplies out. She glanced back at her cousin & gave him a smile.

~Draco~
Draco noticed his cousin come in. When she sat down, she glanced back and smiled at him..he smiled back. "Hi Laurasia."
He saw that Crabbe and Goyle were just now waddling their way into the class. He covered his mouth when he realized that they were still clutching a few cookies in their hands. They knew that Snape did NOT, under any circumstances, allow food in his class! Draco glanced up at Snape to see if he had noticed. If Crabbe and Goyle lost Slytherin points...

~Cedric~
Cedric felt stunned a little at his professor's comment. After all, he had not felt better until Snape had summoned him to his office. He was just showing his appreciation. I should be used to Snape by now. he thought.
He looked up and saw that Laurasia Malfoy had entered. He thought that she had glanced his way and smiled..but then realized that she had smiled at her cousin. Cedric shook his head..now he was seeing things. Maybe he was not truly well yet after all.

~Pansy Parkinson~ Pansy sauntered into the silent potions room. She smiled as she looked around at the other students, most of whom were from her own house, Slytherin. This was one class she would not have to worry about overmuch this year. So long as they barely kept up with the bumbling students from the other houses, she knew Snape would give the Slytherins passing grades.
Pansy took her seat next to Draco. Glancing in his direction, she smiled again, then started taking out her book, cauldron and ingredients, and preparing for the first class of the term. Her mind would not be completely focused on potion-making in this class.

~Professor Snape~
Severus had been glancing up at each student as they entered the class. When Crabbe & Goyle entered, holding sweets no less, his eyes narrowed significantly. "Does this look like the Great Hall to you two? Five points will be taken from each of you for your gluttony. Now take them back up to the Great Hall!" As the two stunned boys turned to leave Professor Snape added in his usual cool voice "And five more points will be taken from each of you upon your late return to class."
He glanced over the classroom silently & folded his arms over his chest. "Today we will be brewing an antidote, so I hope that all of you have your equipment up to par," he said while eyeing all of the students. "I don't want any explosion as we had in the last class." He turned his head sharply towards Seamus Finnigan.
"Alright, can anyone tell me a manner in which to allieve effects of the 'Engorgio' spell?"

Draco was enraged when Crabbe and Goyle lost their house a total of 20 points!! He had to make some of them up some how. He returned Pansy's smile as she sat next to him. Also..he could further impress Pansy..
Finally, class had started. He smiled when he realized that he knew the answer to the question Professor Snape asked. He raised his hand, and was acknowledged.
"Sir, I believe that the answer is to brew a "Deflating Draught" The Deflating Draught causes anything made swollen by magical means to shrink back to its original size." Draco hoped that he remembered everything.

"Very good Draco, 10 points to Slytherin. Now, does anyone know of any other means to reverse the effects of 'Engorgio'. I'm looking for two ways, though one is not very advisable. It works, it just isn't advisable."

~Laurasia Malfoy~
Laurasia couldn't help but glance back at her cousin when he beat her in answering the professor's original question. At least he was a fellow Slytherin.
She quickly raised her hand. "Sir, the inadvisable means of reversing the effects of the 'Engorgio' spell is the administration of the Shrinking Solution. It is unadvised due to the fact that it not only reduces a persons size, but their physical age as well."

Draco was pleased that the Slytherins were the ones answering the questions. They may just make up those points after all. He would have to scold Crabbe and Goyle later of course. Professor Snape loathed taking points from Slytherin..and for him to take 20 at one time!
He glanced at Diggory, and saw that, as usual..he did not contribute in class. Clearly, looks and Quidditch are not everything..he thought smugly.

~Professor Snape~
He was unsurprised to see Laurasia's hand go up, seeing that she was the best Potions student that he had. "That is correct Laurasia. 10 more points to Slytherin."
He walked over to a large table at the front of the room. There was a large assortment of some rather nasty looking substances scattered across the top. "I hope that all of you are writing this down, as it will be included in the homework that you'll receive. Now we'll be brewing the Deflating Draught shortly. But first you'll need to gather the necessary ingredients."
He waved his wand towards a blackboard hanging on the east wall of the room. "Those are the ingredients. Write them down."
"You will find most of the ingredients up on the table at the front of the room. I say most, because instead of Leech Juice you will find vials holding a single leech each." He watched the reaction of the students with a wry grin as many of them realized what must be coming. "If a Witch or Wizard wants to truly be efficient in the art of potion brewing they must know how to harvest their own supplies if necessary. Therefore, you will all be harvesting the necessary Leech Juice for yourselves. Now go to the front & grab your supplies."

~Laurasia Malfoy~
Laurasia was writing down her notes as the professor explained his plans for the next step of the class. "Oh Lord I can hear Pansy Parkinson screaming bloody murder already," she thought to herself. Once she was finished with her notes, she quickly went to the front & gathered up her share of the ingredients. When she returned to her seat, she promptly pulled out her dragon hide gloves.
