It was a field trip day for the fifth year Charms students. That is to say, rather, that instead of being cooped up inside a classroom, class had been moved down three flights to a hallway full or doors. These doors lead into unused classrooms, bathrooms, and storing closets.

“The name of the spell,” piped little Professor Flitwick, “Is ‘Colloportus’.” He demonstrated on the open door way, which slammed shut and locked itself, announced by a tiny little click from the knob. “Make sure,” Flitwick continued, “you give your wand a sweep and point. Lets everyone practice now, before running off, come now…”

“Sweep and point,” Louvika said and gestured with the rest of the class, rather halfheartedly. It was done by starting with ones wand pointing down to the ground, arching it up behind ones head in a circle (keeping a straight arm, of course), and then quickly jabbing it forward at the door handle. She liked Charms, especially on these field trip days. Generally, there was so much chaos going on no one noticed what one person was doing from another. Or where they’d gone off to.

Who needed to practice Colloportus anyways? It was the first day back at school after the closing. No one wanted to be learning, especially not one rather stressed Lou Prewett. But she didn’t want to be alone on her ventures.

“Good work, good work. Now, everyone grab a partner and a door- there isn’t enough for everyone to have their own!”

Lou knew who she wanted as a partner. Spying him through the crowd of students, she reached through and grabbed his arm.

“Li Chang? Won’t you be my partner?”
