Follow on to Andy and Justin thread here: History of mischief
After stating clearly what would be the boys fate if they continued to demonstrate such behavior or similar, Melisande took her time to finally have a deep breath while pinching the bridge of her nose and closing her eyes for a brief moment. "Honestly, what crossed your minds to have this kind of behavior? Are you some kind of primates?" She asked looking at them, letting show some of her exasperation and disappointment.

"In that closet you may find all kinds of tools needed to clean the entire room. Yes, you heard me, even the places untouched by your reckless actions must be cleaned." Melisande told them unwaveringly, pointing at the wooden piece of furniture against the opposite wall, "I don't care if it will take you all day and all night to finish it, but you will. And no, I can't repair anything for you. It's your mess, not mine. So it's better to start." She commanded with a nod towards the cabinet.

The History of Magic professor walked towards her desk sitting down at her chair. Looking down, she saw the note left there, "Apologies will not work now." She stated flatly, tossing the piece of parchment into the trash bin. "I'll be sitting here writing to your parents while you finish everything. You will only leave when I deem you worthy to go." She let them know while preparing her quill and parchment to start writing.

"Yes maam!" Justin saluted, cheerfully. He began by picking up all the loose books and ink bottles. He began whistling a merry tune. Luckily for Justin, his dad worked at a restaurant. Cleaning the restaurant was a punishment he got often.

Justin took a broom from Professor Lennox's closet and began sweeping the floor. Occasionally he would try to do tricks with the broom. When he would finish sweeping one area of the classroom floor, he would celebrate by singing into the broom like it was a mic stand.

The Korean boy cheerfully swept the floor with the broom. He looked over at Professor Lennox and gave her a sheepish smile.

The boy began singing, Binks' Brew from his favorite show, One Piece, as he continued cleaning:
Reducio
"Gather up all of the crew, it's time to ship out Bink's Brew,
Sea wind blew, to where who knows? The waves will be our guide."
He continued singing the song through whistles as he cheerfully swept the rest of the classroom.

The boy then paused, and went off to take off his Jordan 1s. His collection was his prized possession and he did not want to dirty them. Today's colors were green and black... Ironic as he had gotten in trouble for attempting to slander the Slytherin name.

He began wiping the dust off of his shoes. "Aw man. I got dirty old, classroom grease all over these," the boy said as he shined his shoes.

The Jordan's were now spotless. "There," Justin smiled as he put his shoes on a chair in a safe spot.

He ran around with his broom in hand, mainly because it felt like a sword. Of course he still swept as he walked. Justin made sure every surface of the ground, no matter how hidden, was covered for. All debris were collected in one little corner. Pulling his black hair away from his eyes, Justin then collected all the broken pieces of glass and broken equipment, from the pile of things he swept up. He safely put all the pieces in a cardboard box.

I don't know Reparo yet. How do I do this... Justin thought to himself as his focus shifted to the rest of the room. There were ink stains and wet places he avoided with the dry broom, but for the most part it was well cleaned. The next step was mopping... as for the broken pieces... "Yeah, we're cooked," Justin said out loud.

Justin noticed Andy cleaning with him and chuckled.

"Dude, we gotta work on the intelligence and subtly of your pranks," Justin whispered.

The Korean boy then went to Professor Lennox's closet and took out the mop and bucket. Justin filled the mop bucket with cleaner and water and began soaking the whole classroom floor. The water seeped through all the ink and grime.

"Ew... when was the last time this place was mopped?" Justin said out loud as he began diligently mopping the ground. Every once in a while he would clean and rinse the mop in clean detergent water, as it dripped black water from the ink.

The mop made swishy noises as Justin cleaned the floor with experience and expertise... He had to clean the restaurant often, as he often got in trouble.

He stopped mopping and turned to face the History of Magic professor.

Dang it, she could have easily cleaned all this stuff with spells... I could've easily cleaned this up with some spells, Justin thought to himself. He then noticed the Professor preparing her quill and parchment to write to his parents.

Two punishments is crazy... I'm probably mopping the restaurant when I go home too Justin pouted to himself.

His gaze then turned to the professor's brown hair. And then towards her blue eyes. I can't even stay mad. The woman is beautiful Justin grinned a sheepish grin. "This place will be cleaner than the first day this school was made!" Justin shouted in motivation.

The speed of his mopping increased, as his cleaning had more pep to it. "Hey Professor?! Can you remind my parents to send me an update on my siblings? It's been a while since I got one of those." Justin smiled happily as he mopped the floor.

A couple of minutes later, the boy set his mop aside to wipe the sweat from his brows. He leaned to the side, his hand resting on a desk. Suddenly, Justin yelled with an outburst.

"Oh, hell fu-..." Justin's eyes darted towards Professor Lennox. "I mean hell... fudge..." He had just touched chewed gum from under the desk. Justin bent down to see what was going on. The bottom of the desk was riddled with loose pieces of gum.

"That's fucking disgusting," Justin said, not caring about the consequences of swearing in front of a teacher anymore.

He sighed. "She did say... the whole classroom," Justin said, his voice defeated.

Justin looked under the rest of the desks. most of them had at least three pieces of gum stuck under it.

"Well, there's something else to clean now," Justin groaned as he began removing the gum from each desk.

Just took out the last bit of gum from under the desks. "I wonder how long some of these been down here. Maybe someone famous chewed one of these gums? Who's that guy I want to be like when I grow up? Luke Salamander?" Justin said incorrectly, referring to Newt Scamander, the famous magi-zoologist.

He tossed the bag of chewed gum into the bigger bag of trash. Then with a wet sponge, the Ravenclaw boy walked over to the wall. His stupid impulsive decision that got him the detention.
Slytherin was here
He looked back at Andy and smiled. "I'm glad I got to make this memory with Andy today," Justin smiled.

With his sleeves rolled up, Justin began scrubbing the wall. Having cleaned up plenty of his little siblings' 'art' on the walls of the house back home, Justin whistled as he skillfully got rid of the sentence with grace and efficiency.

"Done... now..." Justin walked over to the broken pieces of glass and ink bottles.

For what seemed like two hours, Justin assembled all the pieces together. At first he hated it but as he started getting more and more pieces together, it became fun. He challenged himself to fix every vase and ink bottle.

"But... they won't stay together without magic..." Justin pouted. He then remembered what Professor Lennox said.
In that closet you may find all kinds of tools needed to clean the entire room.
Justin walked over to the closet and found a magnifying glass... He found many magnifying glass.

"Hm..." the boy said.

He collected all the magnifying glass and reflected the sun's rays one by one, leading the rays to touch the next magnifying glass, as he placed magnifying glasses all over the room.

"Thank goodness there's still some sun," Justin said to himself. With the final magnifying glass, Justin took the collected sunlight and shined it on the assembled glass. The heat from the super-magnified sun's rays welded the glass together.

"YES!" Justin yelled out as he began smoothly welding each broken glass.

When he finished, he put back all the magnifying glass in the closet and placed the fixed items back to where they belonged.

When all of this was done, Justin walked up to Professor Lennox and offered her a bow.

"Thank you for such a challenge. I think my mind and wisdom were sharpened today," Justin smiled. "Again, my offer from earlier stands. If you need something done, I owe you one."

Andy walked up to Justin. I am really sorry. he said to him. It was Andy's fault. He got to cleaning. He looked at all of the broken peices of the ink bottles and vases. I do really hate the teacher and this class. Andy picked up the pieces of fragments and looked at all of the mess. He opened the closet and looked for some stuff. Andy Hoped he can just use Reparo on it, but he doesn't know this spell. In Andy's muggle school he also got into detention. It is really not as bad as the ones at Hogwarts though. Andy was angry and wanted to ignite the clothes of the professor, or transfigure her into a frog, but he can't, since that will get him even more into trouble. Andy looked at Justin again and took the broom from the closet and started sweeping glass up in to a big pile and picked it up with a tool, and threw it into the trash. Justin, a little help? said Andy as he picked up all of the broken fragments. Their is a whole mountain of glass to pick up and the whole classroom too. Hey, while we are working, might make good use of it. We can build some strength and talk. No one said we can't talk. Andy sweeped up more glass. It feels guilty to use the broom for muggle purposes. Maybe the broom can fly? Said Andy looking for the pieces of glass and ink. Andy took a mop and cleaned up the ink and all of the stuff including the water from the broken vase and ink. The glass looked like it was spawning their out of nowhere. The thing is, detention isn't that bad if you get in trouble with a friend. Said Andy and looked at Justin. Andy put the mop in water and rinsed it. My dress suite will be all in ink... Thought Andy. He should of brought gloves, since the fragments are hard to pick up sometimes. The more Andy thought about the detention the more angry he was at the teacher and the more sorry he was for Justin. I hope Brookline could help us here. Said Andy as the glass was thrown into the trash can by him. He looked around the class. He was sweating now and the robes where all in ink. His pants where smeared too. When he will be doe with this detention, he will go and change into another outfit, and into a more summery style to it. Let's get to work, Justin Said Andy felling his head because of the sweat.

It was almost the time when Andy should of gone to lunch and the sun had almost set. Andy was feeling very intense pain at that moment when he saw his friend Justin pickig up the glass. Andy could of used a spell to clean all of this up in an instant, but why be even more in trouble? Who knows what Andy will face. Andy hummed a unique melody of a french song that he learned in music class back in muggle.
As the sun shined down on Andy's half sweaty, half not face, since on of the parts of Andy's face was exsposed to sunlight, and the other one was not, he began to feel agony, and a little spark of anger, he wanted to get revenge on the professor, and he made a goal in his mind that he will. He will.
As the last sunlight was covered by the moon, Andy had almost no time to do his work, and homework. It felt like midnight and day time at the same time because of the lights in the classroom and the very dark closet which gave Andy a very creepy feeling. Where any ghosts hiding in there, because Andy heard rumors that there are ghosts at Hogwarts. Well, what else do you expext from a magical school? Andy picked up a few sharp peices of the glass and almost cut himself trying to put it in the trash, so there was a little cut that was not bleeding at all on his hand. How long will it take to do this stuff? And do we really need to glue these things by hand? Because if Andy had to, then there is something very serious in this school of magic. Too sad Andy can't use his wand, because he just learned a new spell in History of Magic just earlier today, the spell can actually clean this mess in over a second or even less. As the last bit of ink where cleaned up by Andy there was almost nothing left to do. Then right when Andy thought he was officially done with his stupid detention, he saw a pile of other fragments of glass, ink and it looked like a very expensive vase too. He took the glue that was in the closet, but glueing stuff by hand is work for some sort of master, because it hurts to hold sharp glass, and it is almost impossible!

It seemed like Andy almost bursted out in anger, the agony was. starting to take over and it seemed like Justin was already done with his part of the job. As the last bits of ink where all in a trash can, Andy hummed to another song, and this time it was American, more from Andy's generation, he used to love this song and sang it all day back in Scotland. He then saw that the vase that he glued earlier was actually not glued. It was painted. Andy used the black paint to paint the vase to it's original color, and used the glue as... paint. And It was worse from then. He also had two piles to clean up and the dawn light was shivering past him like a cheetah sprinting at fool speed. Andy not only that! The teacher will thing that Andy did it unpurpose and that will surely get him expelled, and the teacher looked strict so probably no magic, or he will get stuck in the magical world forever, living as a random person who knows no magic in the magical world! Well, maybe I overeacted a bit, but the chances of that happening are way higher than pigs flying... In the muggle world of course... Andy managed to broom up the ink and the fragments of glass, and maybe there is some scraping tool that is used to scrape off the glue, and maybe give Andy another chance? He found a kitchen knife for soem reason in the closet, and probably this was the only tool he could use. The glue was actually fairly easy to scrape off, and the painting part was not bad too, but this time he can't mix up the ink and the black paint, because if that happened then Andy was for sure cooked, dead, expelled, and done for at the same time. Then, when the last pile of the glass was close to being in the trash can, he was officially, now officially for real done with his stupid detention and Andy hopes that none of this happens ever again, and in Andy's mind he swore, that someday he will get revenge on that teacher. Someday he will mess up her classroom again, and blame it on someone else, and he will be sure to do that. He will. History of Magic classroom will be dirty. You just wait Melisande Lennox. You just wait.
