As soon as Harold and Talia--the last of the students--were into the class, Wednesday started. "Good evening, my eager young wizards and witches," she said, smoothing her long sweater against her body. "I don't mind telling you we are going to have fun tonight. After the frustration a few of us had last week--" Wednesday made a point of looking towards her statues at the far side of the room as she spoke, so as not to make anyone think she was singling them out, "we are going to do our best to take out those frustrations tonight.
"For the Charm of the Evening is ... Reducto!
"Yes, we are going to blow up statues tonight, and we are going to enjoy the hell out of it, won't we?" She smiled as she turned back towards the student, some of whom were beaming. "The drill for this is simple: point and say, 'Reducto!', and watch Shit blow up."
She pulled out her wand, tapping it against the palm of her hand. "Let me just show you, so you won't be surprised by anything." Wednesday took two steps towards the line of statues, pointed her wand at the first one on the left, and shouted, "Reducto!" There was loud bang! as the statue let out a tiny scream and exploded into hundreds of pieces. As soon as the smoke cleared another statue appeared in it's place. "As you can see, we have 8 statues--" She turned back to the students. "So you have plenty of chances to do some damage."
She began pointing at people. "4th Years, you'll do this non-verbal with wands. My 5th Years, verbal without wands. And my 1st and 3rd Years, verbal with wands."
She looked over the students. "No time like the present to start tearing it up. Who would like to go first?"
