Text Cut: Emmalyn

Maddie was really excited now! She'd either got really good at the spell or just had a whole lot of luck on that last try. She wanted to believe that she'd gotten really good at it, though! In that case, she could cast it again and again with success each time! "Thanks!" Maddie said, when Emmalyn told her she'd done an awesome job. Then she laughed. "We must be the two nicest duelers there's ever been!" How many other duelers took turns casting spells and then congratulated each other after each attempt?

Maddie watched as Emmalyn cast the spell, causing a string of fire to start snaking its way to her. Maddie's eyes widened and she held her breath. Again, she got that same feeling of mild fear, even though deep down inside, she remembered that she had protective clothing on. "You did it. Emmalyn!" she finally said. "If we ever need to use this spell, you'd have no problem getting it to work!" Hopefully they'd never have a real situation where the spell was needed.

"So what now? Want to try a few rounds of a real duel?" she asked. Because before now, they'd really only been practicing the new spell.

She briefly wondered if maybe she was just thankful for the protective clothing, but didn't put too much thought into it. "It was kind of cool, huh." She was proud of how well she'd done. Then Maddie sent another rope of fire her way. It crept closer, and closer, and closer before wrapping around her feet. She stood stone still, not wanting to risk stepping on the fire or getting tangled up, but Maddie's control was amazing and it didn't touch her at all. "Wow! That was fantastic!" She was up again. Her wand was out and her mind was focused. Her goal was to get the fire to Maddie. "Ignisio Funem!" she commanded forcefully, willing with all her mind and body the fire from the tip of her wand. It started out slowly, pouring down towards the ground, before snaking its way towards Maddie's feet. It kept up the slow and steady pace until it was within inches of her friends feet. Unsure if she would be able to wrap the fire around her and not cause injury, she stopped the rope of fire where it was. "It made it all the way! Not quite as good as yours, but it's getting so much better!" Maddie was really excited now! She'd either got really good at the spell or just had a whole lot of luck on that last try.
