"Which are you?"

"I'm a fire."

"And Miss Parker?"

"Catherine isn't an elemental, she is a magical theorist and spell crafter who works with me."

"No wonder Harry's trying to pick her brains."

"What makes you say that?" Jarrod asked with a smile.

"Harry likes theory and crafting spells, he did an absolutely wicked prank on his godfather."

"Ah. So tell me Neville what do you know about elemental magic?"

"It exists."

"Oh. Let's catch up to those two, and then we can get started."

Harry was leading Miss Parker to the first floor classroom that had been assigned. Once in the class room. Jarrod said, "Harry, what do you know about elemental magic?"

"Well, elemental magic is magic that few wizards or witches can work mostly because most can't connect to the raw magic the elements earth, water, air, and fire produce. Life magic the magic most witches and wizards use feeds from elemental magic. An elemental mage can fuel his or her spells from their element. Fire elementals are the most strong they can pull from fires, the sun, even from the heat that people generate because they are pulling from the stored energy people get from food that was fed by the sun. It's also the reason they're the most feared they can literally drain their enemies to death without even an incantation. Air elementals are the next strongest. Once trained they can command the wind. They can create lightning by exciting the air molecules and generating a static charge. Water elementals can command water they can use it to act as a weapon or as a defense they also can change its state making a liquid a solid and vice versa. They can command it to go to its gaseous state but at that point their ability to control it fizzles out. Earth elementals have an endless supply of energy and the ability to ground out attacks, a trained earth elemental can take any attack and stop it by allowing the energy from the earth magic and grounding it so it never hits. Each type of elemental has affinities for specific types of magic: Earth for herbology, defense and potions, Water for potions and healing, Air and fire for charms and defense."

"Spoken like a true theorist." Miss Parker said.

"What element are you? Do you know?" Jarrod asked.

"I know I'm an air elemental. Under duress I've called lightning twice."

"Really?"

"Yeah- yes, a lot of my initial training was based in eastern magic and Native American as result the connection to the earth and nature is pretty much a given. Subconsciously I can access and control my elemental powers. My hope is that with your help I can take that control from subconscious to conscious, hopefully that will keep me from putting myself in a virtual coma when I use them.

"The exercise I led the others through was to call up their magic. Neville was a bit of an oops. The grounding portion set off his abilities. You can help him get it under control right?"

"Yes, I can help both of you. That was a very good summary that you gave. It sounds like you're a ways ahead of Neville."

"Well the credit or most of it goes to Inarra Serra in Salem, she taught me magical theory, and Yiska Walker. He-it's hard to explain. "

Catherine Parker smiled and said, "I see. So what do you think of Mandelbright's Law?"

Jarrod gave a fond smile to Miss Parker as she and Harry plunged into an in depth discussion of magical theory. Then he focused on Neville and started teaching him some of the base controls of elemental magic that Harry already seemed to know.

Sunday Harry quickly ate his lunch and headed to the magic room on the seventh floor. He planned to stretch the room of requirement to to the very limit of it's capacity for magic.. As he walked by the door he focused on the features he wanted the room to have, moments later when the door appeared he was swift to open it.

"This is cool." Harry exclaimed as he looked into the room. Harry had actually pictured a series of rooms. The first looked like a cross between a classroom, a common room, and a library. On the left there was an archway leading to an area that looked like a cross between the potions classroom and a modern chemistry lab complete with hoods and specific ventilation. On the right was an area that mentally he dubbed the theater that was filled with lots of soft comfortable places to lounge and a small raised stage. Opposite the entrance to the room was an archway leading to area that really made Harry smile It looked like a large multi-function health club with weights, cardio equipment, a mile running track, aerobics floor basket ball and squash courts and that was just the area Harry could see from the arch.
