The startled girl yelped and flung herself to the floor in a tight position as she muttered the word, "Protego!" as she fell. An orb of protection covered her, keeping her safe from the bouncing lightning bolts she'd sent out.

Once the unintended spell ping-ponged itself out on the art in the room, Eliza lifted her head and peeked around at what she now knew must have been a female voice. Her eyes found Claudette and she let out a sheepish grin, followed by a narrowing of the eyes. "You gave me quite a fright, Claudette!" she said accusingly. She stood and brushed herself off, and immediately felt her cheeks grow hot from her outburst. "I-I'm sorry. That was rude. I was just still a little tense," she said apologetically. Great, can I EVER have a decent interaction with this girl? She's Ethan's cousin for crying out loud Eliza, get it together! She took in a few even breaths to slow her heart rate back to normal and said, "It was a little funny." She smirked and arched an eyebrow at the blonde. Surely she thought Eliza was just...a trip at this point. She wanted to tell her that she wasn't usually like this, but then she considered it, and thought maybe she really was. "I don't mean to be so...so jumpy. Sorry," she apologized again, looking at the girl with confused eyes. Is this why I don't have many friends? she wondered. Does everyone think I'm just a big scaredy cat? She wasn't sure, and she didn't like being unsure. Well, I'm NOT just afraid of things! Last year I cast a spell at a goblin for crying out loud! Let THAT be known, eh? Her mind was a maze of thought now and there wasn't much she could do about it. In fact, she'd almost forgotten Claudette was standing there, probably watching her.

Claudette had stepped back, giggling a bit, waiting for Eliza's reaction. It was awfully spooky down here and she figured it a laugh to just startle the seemingly preoccupied girl.. but she was not at all prepared for what was to come next. Her eyes widened as sparks sprung out of the other girl's wand, ricocheting around the room, and the blonde threw a protective arm over her head as she crouched down. Her eyes darting around the room, the fell on Eliza as she cast a shield and Claudette's hand found her wand, doing the same to keep the sparks from burning off her hair.

The sparks soon slowed and fizzled out, leaving Claudette still staring wide-eyed and open-mouthed at Eliza. She slowly straightened up to her full height looking stunned back at the other girl, not saying anything and just letting the girl speak. Finally, after a few minutes and the 16 year old was again able to form words, she began. "Well.. that was.. interesting.." She started chuckling a little, then shook her head. "No.. that actually was pretty funny." Wow.. Eliza was pretty excitable, she'd have to file that away in her memory bank. "I wasn't really expecting all that, to be honest.. so, um, what is this place anyway?" She looked around again at all the little metal creatures.
