Aurora was far too much of a pacifist to be a member of the Duelling Club, or at least that was what she had been telling herself. It could have also been something to do with not being so successful with the physical aspect and her inability to ‘hurt’ anyone, even if it WAS just a dummy. She had however attended a couple of meetings for the Healers of Tomorrow group when she had remembered, in that there was some relevance towards her future career goals as a creature healer and truthfully she needed all the help she could get in that department.

She was mildly concerned as she raced down the staircase from the Ravenclaw Common Room where she had retreated to after a hefty breakfast feast, that she was going to be late and have to make a quiet entrance into the Duelling Arena and not make a show of herself. Which is exactly what she did as she tiptoed her way in, battling the stitch in her side from exercise too soon after eating only to be greeted by a mostly empty classroom and a pair of Professors. She looked between them and the clock and back to them again only to realise that she was in fact early and not late and all the frantic-ness had been for nothing. “I must’ve misread the notice” she blinked twice, mostly to herself but certainly within earshot of the Professors.
