SPOILER!!: Brandon! <3

Diplomacy is one way to go but with most dark creatures, well. Unfortunately it doesn’t work the majority of times. Dhruv must say, they rather admired Brandon’s persistence. For a moment, they could not tear their gaze away from the Hufflepuff; it was like watching a rather thrilling action movie. If they were sitting, they would have been on the edge of the chair. Then finally! Defeat! “Excellently done, Mr. Fox!’’ Dhruv called, unsure if the boy would hear them over all the hubbub.

But when the silver level came… Dhruv was wincing a great deal. Poor Brandon. The dummy was certainly getting the best of him. Brandon just needed to keep his focus. Even the simplest of spells could have a huge impact. “Try shooting a strategic combination of spells at it,’’ Dhruv called, entering the fray because Bella needed help.

SPOILER!!: Bella! <3

Bella had done a wonderful job of defeating the first level dummy but clearly the second level dummy had gotten the best of her. That was okay because this was one of the points of the activity. However, the Slytherin was doing exactly what Dhruv constantly reminded the students: to resist panicking. This too was fine. “Breathe, Ms. Connolly.” The attacking dummy was frozen before Dhruv fixed their attention on Bella’s hair. “Not to worry. The curse has an easy fix in the form of a charm,’’ they reassured in a kind voice. Dhruv opted to use their wand for this task. They spoke clear and precise incantations that ceased the curse. Not only this but they also used the appropriate charm to regrow her hair. “There. Your hair looks as lovely as before. Now, would you like to continue or do you need to take a break?”

OOC: there's still about twenty seven hours before we move on to the final round!

He had been hit with one ONCE and immediately decided that his sister was right about them being awful. Dodging spells was easy when they only came every thirty seconds. The hard part was winning. He sighed as the dummy repeatedly dodged his trip jinxes. "Get back here," he mumbled, pausing to be more strategic. He ducked another spell, coming exactly thirty seconds behind the first. New plan. He tried flipendo on one side, which the dummy blocked with a shield charm. He tried it on the other side, and the dummy dodged. Then he hopped back and forth randomly, repeating the spell from several angles until one hit it. It took a bit, but the dummy was eventually overwhelmed. Brandon 1, dummy 0? Mostly because he could cast as many spells as he wanted, and the dummy couldn't. He grinned. The silver dummy was much harder, in his opinion. It hit him with impedimenta right in the beginning, and then once he'd figured out how to fix that, it hit him with a flipendo duo. He fell down, which hurt, but he got up since there wasn't any blood or anything. He watched carefully as the dummy moved around, trying to figure out a pattern in its movements. How was he supposed to defeat this one when he didn't know any spells above second year? It didn't knock him down again, as Brandon didn't let things hit him the same way twice in a row, but he didn't manage to hit it with anything either. He cast spells at it anyway, figuring it would slip up or repeat in a pattern at some point. He ducked another spell. At least they were predictable with the timing of that...

She really disliked having colds because they often lingered for weeks before you got rid of it and felt healthy. Next up the dummy changed from the bronze to the silver colour, and before Bella could react she was hit by a spell sent by her dummy or that was what she thought but nothing appeared to happen. She didn't feel odd or so but then chunks of hair started to fall off courtesy of the calvorio spell which made Bella jump up and down on the spot and panicking "Eeeeek! Make it stop! I don't want to loose all my hair!" Dodging another spell Bella got back to her senses and casted with panick in her voice "Finite Incantatem!" Where was Prof Khanna when you needed him?
