23. Levicorpus
If Sarah could not go to Diagon Alley that day, at least she got to practice some more spells. She hoped to do more dueling in her fourth year. She opened up her spell book to the paper that she had slipped between the pages. It was the spells she had wanted to learn and there at the bottom was a really cool spell. Levicorpus. Using that the victim will dangle by their ankles, Sarah hdecided never todo it on a girl, as that would be mean. She the began to say it "levi-COR-pus",. She repeated it until her tongue got fully aquainted with it. Then she did the wand movement, without her wand as she did not want to do it by mistake. She then decided to put them together, she held the twig she found in the garden and did the upwards flick and said "Levicorpus". At that moment her mother walked in.
"Liberacorpus" her mother replied automatically, The two laughed.
"I can't believe I still remember the counter spell" Rebecca Edwards told her daughter. "it was like a reflex to say it."
Sarah wondered when she would get a knee jerk reaction to spells like that.
