Kaura rummaged through her room, trying to find papers and sheets of homework that Emma made them do a while ago. The Leprechauns didn't seem to be directly hostile so upfront magic wouldn't work. She needed to cast a spell, a banishing, a weakening, a trapping, she didn't know.
"Do you know what you're doing?" Penelope asked from the door.
Kaura continued to search for books, slowly turning her room upside down. "Hell no."
"This day is just full of sunshine and rainbows, isn't it?"
That got the gears in Kaura's head turning. "Leprechauns. They love gold, they love jewels, right?"
"They like stealing too, greedy pigs," Penelope clicked her tongue as she glared at her empty finger.
"What's the saying? Something about a rainbow."
"The end of a rainbow always has a pot of gold?"
Kaura grinned and turned to her best friend. Once Penelope realized, they smiled at each other. "You think what I'm thinking?"
"I am."

The two witches began their scavenger for the ingredients of the spell. The twins were trying to soothe the crumbling school and the teachers weren't much help either. They locked themselves in the meeting room and argued about who took the stapler. As for Raf and Mason...
Kaura walked by the library room and was shocked to still hear destruction. She boomed past the doors with an irritated expression, eyes wide as Mason was thrown across the room. He was picking himself up from the strike, just as Raf was picking up a long broken wooden slab.
Kaura stepped in between it all, despite her warning to Lizzie. Because as she had her back to Mason, eyes seeping into Raf's fury ones, she knew— "You would never hurt me," she said with a laugh.
Raf's arm was up high, prepared to send a blow with the plank Mason's way. But when he spotted Kaura in the path, he froze immediately pulling back. He scowled and slammed the splintered aside. As they watched Raf leave, Mason huffed when Kaura was following in his footsteps. "What about me? No words of inspiration?" He said through his ragged pants.
"Go to sleep, Mason. It's an off day for a reason." Kaura didn't turn to him as she walked out of the room.

The witches met in the Main Hall, with Penelope setting up the spell. As a legend that formulated around the rainbow, she gathered natural magical ingredients that each had a colour from the rainbow. Vibrant red poppies, orange lantanas, yellow begonias, green daylily, blue hydrangeas and purple wisteria's. Now it was time to actually perform the spell. Kaura held out a knife to the twins.
"What are you doing?" Lizzie crossed her arms, declining the weapon.
"What do you think we're doing? I need your blood to represent your magic in the spell," she scoffed, holding out the knife impatiently.
"Why can't we link arms, like usual, and have my magic represent through physical touch?" Lizzie snapped back.
"It's not like we usually try to spell away mythical monsters. The spell requires more sacrifice so just cut your palm, Lizzie," Penelope urged.
Lizzie obeyed as she muttered curses under her breath. She turned to Josie as her blood pooled in her palm. Josie sent Penelope a questioning glare to which Penelope nodded, confirming that it was safe. Josie then cut her palm with a painful wince that she tried to conceal. Kaura snatched the weapon back and handed the weapon to Penelope who did the same.
