"Oh,that was a really good one." She smiled and held her wand out for another go. She pictured the rope of fire streaming from the tip of her wand and commanded "Ignisio Funem!" The power of the spell flowed through her body and out the tip of her wand. Flames shot out in a rope like fashion and ever so slowly crept across the floor towards Maddie. She willed it closer and closer, but just before it reached her partner, it died out. "That one almost got to you. Well, at least it was closer than last time."

Her confidence was improving. She had gone from just a few sparks, to crazy sparkler balls of fire, to producing a small, but real, rope of fire. It was easier to focus on the spell when the rest of the class wasn't watching and it helped to be working with a partner.


Just as she was about to try the spell again, Maddie overheard the professor tell both she and Emmalyn how good of a job they were doing. "Thanks, Professor!" she called out. The professor was always so super nice! In just the few seconds it took to do that, Emmalyn had cast an awesome version of the spell, and at first, Maddie thought she'd need to cast a shield charm. She had the protective gear on, but still, her first instinct was to use her wand.

"WHOA!" she said, looking down at the floor where the fire had once been. "That was creepy!"

She laughed then raised her wand. "Ignisio Funem!" she called out. Again, the sparks came from her wand and soon turned into a trail of fire. Maddie didn't even blink or breathe as she commanded the fire to sneak toward Emmalyn. When it reached her feet, she used her wand to command it to turn in a circle around the girl's feet. She ended the spell then caught her breath. "Emmalyn! Did you see that?!" she exclaimed.
