Chapter 6 - Mandrakes. "Alright now everyone, Welcome to Greenhouse 4 for your first Herbology lesson of the term!" announced Professor Sprout as she looked around the greenhouse. I smile and whisper to Chrisanthi, "Woo! Herbology!" and she grins back at me whispering "I hope it's not like last year. Do you remember that?" "Of course I do! That was the messiest and most fun Herbology lesson of all time!" I whisper. "Now, these mandrakes are not fully grown, so their screams wont kill you JUST yet, but they may knock you out for several hours. So that's why I've got earmuffs for everyone. I'd like you to put them on, please, and put the flaps down tight, grasp the mandrake, and PULL!" says Professor Sprout and I hear a TERRIBLE wailing sound coming from the mandrake. I pull out my mandrake like everyone else, I feel someone flick my earmuffs off my ears and I plunge into a pitch black void full of - what sounds like - some sort of feedback noise. //No,// I think, //I'm not dead, am I?// I float around and feel some sort of goopy liquid. I plunde through and feel myself being pulled out, out into the open again.
Wow, I shared like, 3 chapters today. (This is probably the spookiest and scariest chapter I'm going to share.)
