Jeffery tried repeatedly to relax, the smoke drifting over his eyes and making it difficult, Jeffery lay there for five more minutes before shooting upwards and jumping off the bench into a standing position.
"alright, that smoke is starting to piss me off" Jeffery commented walking over to the nearby building to tell whoever is brewing the potion to either stop screwing up, or to close the window.
stepping inside the somewhat new looking building Jeffery guessed it was a set of classrooms, the sound of silence filling the halls Jeffery started walking around looking for a set of stairs or something leading up to the second story, his feet echoing against the hard floor.
Jeffery eventually found a flight of stairs leading upward quickly ascending them and looking around for the entrance to the room the smoke came from.
"alright it was out of a window so that`s a start, still might be a bit befo-" Jeffery immediately stopped his train of thought when he felt a warm sensation at the base of his leg, he looked down and saw the same kind of smoke from earlier pooling around him, following the trail of smoke to a nearby door.
"well that was easy" Jeffery said walking over to the door and banging his fist on it a couple of times "hey, close the damn window your letting smoke out" Jeffery pressed his ear against the door hoping to hear the sound of a window being closed but hearing nothing but the continued bubbling of the cauldron knocked again "you alright?, if you don`t answer in three seconds I`m coming in, one....two....three" Jeffery pressed his ear against the door again hearing no voices "alright, I warned you" Jeffery placed his hand on the door handle and muttered a quick unlocking spell before opening the door his face greeted by a large cloud of smoke.
Jeffery coughed a few times before putting his glasses on and stepping inside his foot crunching against a combination of loose papers and scraps of potion ingredients "damn looks like a bomb went off in here" Jeffery mused walking over to the window and closing it breathing a sigh of relief as he turned around only to see the cauldron bubbling faster and faster, whatever was inside bubbling over the edges, Jeffery walked over and stared into the cauldron the potion inside a red substance that was becoming more violent with each passing minute.
"I have no idea who`s brewing this but they have turned....something, into the equivalent of dragon's piss" Jeffery leaned forward to get a quick smell of the potion, his foot accidentally stepping on the gas pedal adding more fuel to the fire sending the potion over the edge, the cauldron rocked back and forth for a few seconds before the concoction exploded outwards sending Jeffery backwards and into the window the cheap lock breaking with a loud snap causing him to fall outwards onto the veranda hanging over the walkway surrounding the building
Jeffery rolled forward on the slanted veranda before falling off onto the ground below his body landing on the soft grass of the courtyard to the gasps and shouts of fellow students, some moving on, others stopping to stare.
"nothing to see here people, move along, just a guy falling backwards out of a second story window" Jeffery groaned getting to his feet and dusting himself off. His head pounding and ears ringing slightly Jeffery started the walk back to his dorm room, hoping to just lie down.
