Allegra had been so focused on Reina that she hadn't actually read the board, prefering to get her supplies from the list in her book instead.
"Gorilla pee? Monkey's uncle?" she cried out incredulously. "Those aren't real potion ingredients!" It appeared the new potion's mistress was a prankster.

Beni looked at the board and slapped her forehead, holding back erupting laughter. She hadn't noticed the words on the board until Allegra shouted it out. Beni was almost ready to write it down. "I'll be! Those are some tough ingredients to get. Now, do I get it from a chimp or an orangutan? You have to be specific on these things."

Lainee grabbed the paper from the air and stuffed it in her pocket. She locked eyes with the Slytherin girl and stared her down. Well, she would have if she didn't hear Sora's and Allegra's comments. Smiling she nodded her head. "Good, so my students are paying attention. 5 points to both houses of Ravenclaw and Slytherin. I was wondering when someone was going to say something now or when they were to use it in their potion."
Lainee just patted Beni's shoulder laughing with her. "So instead of those two ingredients what ingredient am I missing?"

Brittany just grinned and shook her head at Daniel's scowl. The girl had only tapped on his head twice and lightly too, so she paid no mind to him. She noticed that he was wearing his contacts so that his eyes were black. This had come as a bit of a shock to not see those cobalt blue eyes staring back at her. Taking a seat as the professor entered the room, she listened to the comments of the other students and wondered the same as them. Giving a smile to Sora as he walked in, she got out her potions book. Flipping through the pages she awaited the new Professor's introduction and instruction. Daniel was pleased with Brittany's reaction with his eyes however. He hated his eyes with a passion, and the black was really doing much better for him with his dark hair. Looking at Professor Jam-bor-ee's (her offical name as of now) instructions, not paying any attention to any of the mistakes, as he was much too tired to think of it, he noticed he was missing some. The points added had him questioning, for he was not paying attention to the front of the classroom at all. At least they had been awarded five points.

"Uhh..." Beni put a finger to her lower lip, putting some deep thought in it. She had no idea, really. Ingriedents came to her naturally, with no precise measurement. Still, she gave it a try. "Uh... baboon's butt?"

Lainee laughed and shook her head. "Nope, but I can try and conjure an old old old spell that would envolve Babboons' butt if you want? It'll be an extra class for everyone. Probably like a saturday." Lainee looked pleased and excited. She truly loved Potions and was sure everyone would agree to the extra class for extra potions. "Anyone else?"

Brittany had started to get her things together. She said nothing what-so-ever of what had just happened to Reina. The two thoughts that came to her mind contradicted each other. They went along the lines of the Professor being a bit harsh and how she should have something stronger than just a zipper. Flipping to the correct page that the instructions of the potion they would be making were on she looked them over. Also, realizing that the ingredients had been wrong and completely crazy.
She raised her hand and answered, "The potion also requires a powdered griffin claw."

Daniel shot a glance at Brittany mildly impressed. He had no idea of what the ingredient was, and her answer seemed to sum it all up. She had never told him that she was decent in potions. He poked her arm with his eagle quill whispering from the corners of his mouth as of course a joke, "Goody-goody-too-shoes."
Daniel locked his dark orbs back on the teacher innocently as he allowed a small grin to cross his face. Hopefully she hadn't seen him, but even if she did, Daniel was in better spirits. The jokes had been funny and were definatly making his low-starting day the slightest bit better.

Lainee clapped her hands. "Very good. 5 points to the house of Gryffindor." Lainee pointed at the board and it quickly rearranged itself to the proper potion.
Salamandor's blood Powdered Griffin Claw Pomegranate juice Fish scales
One strand of hair from a monkey's uncle
Gorilla pee
Instructions Heat your cauldron slowly. Let it slowly reach the desire of temperature of no higher than a roiling boil. As it starts to boil drop in the fish scales. Take the griffin claw and start to pound it into it becomes a powder or dust.

Reina was more than angry she was being ignored. She couldn't talk, make comments or anything. This was an outrage. How could the woman be so blasted mean. Reina couldn't even try to earn her house points. Reina slowly walked up to the table and retrieved her ingredients. Reina tried to make a fire, but coudn't. She couldn't speak the words and no matter how hard she thought it wasn't working.
Reina looked around for help, but didn't think anyone would actually help her. She wasn't the most liked girl in the school. Reina sank in a chair and lifted her legs up to her body resting her chin on her knees. A few tears threatened to fall from her eyes. She had really done it now.

Lainee watched the other students, but curiousity would always kill her. Lainee went to read the note. As she read she snapped and the second set of instructions appeared on the board.
Salamandor's blood Powdered Griffin Claw Pomegranate juice Fish scales
Instructions II When your potion starts to bubble and threatens to bubble over pour in the dust. This should calm your potion down. It will only subside for only 2 or 3 minutes. While it's calm quickly mix the pomegrante juice and the fish blood into a boil. It should turn a bright pink. Drop that into the potion and start turning clock wise for 2 minutes. Extinguish your fire and turn clockwise for one minute. When you are done collect a sample and wait patitently for everyone to finish as well.

Allegra read the directions in her book as well as those on the board and raised her hand. Seeing the Professor was otherwise occupied, she decided to call out. "Excuse me, Professor, but you have fish blood in the directions. You mean fish scales, right?"

Brittany scrunched up her nose and smirked at Daniel. She knew that he was just kidding. As the professor corrected the board and put the instructions up, the girl got to work. Getting the powdered griffin claw, she got up and filled her cauldron with water. Lighting the fire, she brought it to a boil and dropped in the fish scales. Her griffen claw was already powder, so she waited til the professor gave more instruction.
As Allegra said something, Brittany looked up and read the board. Listening to Allegra make a mistake, she raised her own hand saying, "No that couldn't be right. I think the instructions meant to say that you need to add the salamandor's blood since we added the fish scales as the first ingredient."

Lainee nodded at Brittany. "That is correct. The salamandor's blood." Lainee was already flouncing away to help another students. She glanced at the board and made sure to change it for next year. "Salamandor's blood."

"Salamander blood... of course" Allegra echoed, laughing at her own mistake. She was already mixing the ingredient with the pomegrante juice and adding it into the potion.
