 ...try, try again.  The words continually repeated in the young vulpera’s mind as she would take a leaf or petal from a plant that she had growing next to her and every time she tried each different experiment , the concoction would backfire and blow up in her face, leaving ash and soot on it.  

She then flops down dejectedly and pouting out her lips, Hana would sit there for some time just peering across the table full of scrolls, beakers and other assorted items.  “This is never going to work.  I may as well just give up.”  Upon hearing that her lab partner just snorted and rolled her eyes, speaking up so Hana will hear,  “You’re the best one of all of us, if you give up, what point do the rest of us have of continuing on?” Making Hana grumble under her breath and look around to each of the components.  

Finally the lightbulb came on, and  she realized what she was doing wrong and heated t up before grinding it in a powder, instantly making a breakthrough with the potion before her and when added the liquid started to glow and  sparkle with a magnificent aroma wafting out of it.  Giving herself a gratified smile, her lab partner continued to stand facing away from hana and they continued on with their research of some of the herbs they had collected for the rest of the day.
