At any rate it didn't take long for her partner to give the go ahead and put up a shield. Good to see that it appeared to be perfectly cast but they would know for sure in a moment or so.

Giving a nod, Esme performed the rather fancy wand movement - it always reminded her of mountains - while calling out, "Immobulus!" Watching the blue light, she waited to see if it would be successfully blocked or not.

Watching Esme perform the other spell, well let's just say Sky was awe-struck. She'd seen her parents perform spells, albeit usually non-verbally and Logan and Grace and Hayley and Chloe among other adults. But this was different because Esme was only just a few years older than her and already so confident.

Had Sky been more focused on her protection charm instead of Esme's confidence, her shield charm probably would have been stronger but as such, her distracted mind let her guard down and that second well, Esme's immobilus charm collided with her shield charm effectively disarming it, but thankfully there to be hit instead of her. "Wow... Sorry! I got distracted but uh, how do you keep focus?" Her attention span wouldn't last long enough for a whole duel, clearly.

And they were moving on away from this partner exercise now and practicing the bubblehead charm!!
