Ohhh, there was no way she could fail at this now! Katy was up and helping them, and she was really smart! She probably knew just how handle every last one of these gnomes! Maddie nodded toward Emmeline, but her facial expression said that she wasn't quite sure of herself at all. She'd made a try for the spell, though, and she was hoping with everything in her that it'd word. She did NOT feel like getting bit by a gnome. So many people were helping her now, and she was super grateful, but she didn't have a single second to thank you to any of them. As it was, the gnomes were just about to beat her with her paying them complete and total attention. She didn't want to think about what would happen if she turned her back on them.

"AHHHH!" she said, as all hopes of her spell working were gone and replaced by a gnome attaching itself to her leg. A second one was right behind it, but THANK MERLIN somebody's spell had worked, and the creature was attacked by vines. "Emmeline! What was that spell you used earlier? Uhhh...uhh...," she mumbled. "Expelliarmus!" she exclaimed, pointing her wand at the creature. Apparently, it worked on gnomes without a wand, too.
