The first year had been putting off doing her homework for about as long as she could. Waiting until the last minute to do certain things was just in her blood. Dragging her feet, she finally made her way into the dueling area, and boy was it packed. It seemed like she wasn't the only one who waited until the last minute. It was so busy in there that she was sure that she was missing familiar faces. Oh well, it was time to get down to business.

AJ was not really looking forward to this considering that she didn't have such a good go with it during the lesson. Deciding that it was a good idea to go over the whole thing again, AJ did some practicing. "Reducto, Re-duc-to, Reducto, Re-duc-to." The spell really was easy enough to say. Now she decided to practice the sideways v thingy. Swish, swish. Now it was time to put the two together, and this is when the fun starts... not really.
