Lion's Pride

S.1 Chapter 2: Alfea College for Fairies

Waking up the next morning, I stretched my arms up before looking up at a still sleeping Alastair before nudging him slightly causing him to wake up and let out a big yawn.

"Morning sleeping head." I said getting up and heading towards the showers to get ready.

"Very funny." Alastair teased starting to stretch and clean up.

After getting a shower and getting dressed I combed Alastair's mane before putting on his jewel on his forehead and headed into the hallway where the other girls were waiting.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." I spoke looking at how the girls were still sleepy, but ready for the day.

"No worries we all just got here." Flora said letting out a small yawn after.

"C'mon let's head to breakfast." Stella said starting to walk out the door with us following her.

After arriving at the mess hall, we got breakfast, that was scones with tea, while Alistair got his meaty breakfast, before heading off to our first class of the semester. Entering the classroom, we headed to our assigned seats with Alastair sitting beside me and waited for the class to start.

"Good morning everyone." The professor said.

Seeing the professor, he was of small stature with pointy ears and a pointy green hat. If I had to guess on what magical creature he resembled, it would be a leprechaun.

"As usual it befalls me to kick off the school year." He started standing in front of his desk. "Now for those of you who haven't met me yet I am professor Wizgiz, your teacher of metamorphosis." He continued jumping on top of his desk.

"Or as I prefer to call it the art of changing-" he said putting one finger in the corner of his mouth and stretching it before shaking a little and finishing off by looking like an exact replica of Mrs. Griselda, also sounding exactly like her. "-the way you look."

This made all of us look towards each other before looking back at the professor and give him a round of applause.

"Oh well that's nothing, by years end you'll do better than that." Professor Wizgiz said transforming back to his normal self and jumping on top of a student's desk.

"And since every ending must have a beginning let us start with a simple exercise." He started again before pointing up and with magic at his finger tip summoning small handheld mirrors on top of all our desks making Stella immediately grab hers. "Concentrate, look in the mirror, look at yourself, and think about changing the color of your hair."

Grabbing onto my mirror, I followed the instruction without much difficulty and changed my hair to a dark brown like my father's before turning to look at Alastair seeing his face getting his response that I look more like my father with this colored hair making us both let out a chuckle.

After getting his response, I turned my hair back to the way it was before looking towards Bloom and Stella. Where Stella was just gazing at her reflection before seeing Bloom try to do the exercise and fail putting her mirror down.

"Don't worry Bloom, if at first you don't succeed try again." Professor Wizgiz said appearing at Bloom's table.

Soon enough classes finished at the end of the day and now Alastair and I were in Bloom and Flora's room with Stella, Bloom and Flora. At the moment Flora was working on some of her plants while me and Stella tried to help Bloom with her transformation magic.

"Let's try again." Bloom said making Stella and I agree to change our hair color again.

"One last time and that's it. School's just beginning if you don't get it today it's not the end of the world." Stella said looking into the mirror and gazing at herself.
