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?”
Bella was trying very hard to not panic but it was very, very hard not to. When she heard Prof Khanna's voice as he approached, her eyes started to well up with tears. "My hair looks dreadful doesn't it?" Luckily there were not any mirrors near by or she might have really broken down on the spot. Bella hid her teary eyes in her hands, and tried to stand very still as Prof Khanna fixed her up by reversing the hair loss curse. Her hair grew back in a matter of minutes. It wasn't until Prof Khanna said that her hair looked lovely again that Bella dared to open her eyes, and look up at her professor. In a small voice full of gratitude she mumbled to him "Thank you for fixing my hair Prof Khanna. It scared me." She wiped away the last few tears from her eyes before casting a quick glance over at her dummy. Bella contemplated for a moment what to do before responding to the asked question with determination in her voice. "I've come this far so I want to give the last round a go too. I hope I'll be able to dodge or protect myself against the next spell, and that it's not a curse."

After taking a few moments to refocus Bella retook her stand in front of the now gold coloured dummy. Upon some unhearable signal the spell which she now faced was Avis as a flock of birds was flying fast towards her. Bella ducked, dodged some of the birds before she casted "Protego Maxima!" to shield herself from the incoming attacks of beaks and claws.
