Don't you dare.

Frankie had rolled his eyes at her when she mouthed those words. Whether she wanted him to or not, he was going to take it easy on her. There was no way he could force himself to cast the incantations for things like the Scorching Spell or Defodio. The blond would have used those in any other duel, but not this one. Yes, they would be able to look past whatever happened. But he just couldn't bring himself to treat Hady exactly like any other person he had duelled against in the past. The Head Boy didn't want to hurt her.

His preferred spells weren't necessary to win a duel, however. He could get by with cleverness and some tamer defensive spells, which was what Frankie intended to do. It explained why he was quick to disillusion himself, creep about the arena out of sight, and use that silly, yet surprisingly still effective, flower spell.

A grin appeared on his face when Hady responded. The boy wanted to comment back, saying that she was indeed a pretty flower, but he stopped himself from speaking. Doing so would have given away his position. She didn't need to know that he had made his way behind her, the back of her head facing him as he stood several feet away. Kudos to her for that braid though. It looked spot on today.

Staring at the back of Hady's head momentarily distracted Frankie. Before he knew it, he was dowsed in water. It was enough to get him focused again just in time quietly mutter and block her second spell with a strong shield charm. He knew her duelling style all too well and knew that second spell was coming. In case the Ice Queen heard him speak, he started moving again.

The combination of spells that Hady had casted forced him to move a lot slower than what he wanted to avoid slipping tumbling to the floor. Though it was important that he keep on moving to avoid being an easy target -- Alexis Cambridge had taught him that crucial lesson -- in spite of how challenging it was to get around without slipping and falling on his bum.

A thought then popped in his mind, which caused him to stop moving after managing to move a few feet away from his hiding place. He needed to use their surroundings to his advantage, and he needed to distract Hady before she noticed the trail of water he was leaving behind. It was the only way he could make any serious strides in finding a new place to wait patiently before making his next move.

"Ventus," he said confidently, moving his wand in a whip-like motion and sending the spell directly at Hady. Frankie hoped the spiraling wind, with he help of the frozen floor, would push her across the arena, spinning her body around and around as she went.
