Now for actually practicing the charm. "You can go first, if you'd like," Juniper offered. "Since you went to get it. You deserve to go first." Becca, without much hesitation, agreed with Juni. "That's fine with me." Ah, her large ego was slowly coming out. She had always been exceptionally good at charms, not perfect, but usually things went as planned. Maybe it was her wand, or maybe charms was just one of the few things in the wizarding world she could excel at without much fuss.
She removed her wand from her robes and gripped it comfortably. Then, she stepped back, pointed her wand at the chest, and spoke clearly, "Alohomora!" The lock seemed to shake violently for a very brief moment, but then it clinked down, unlocked. Maybe it wasn't a completely perfect result, but at least she had suceeded. "Meh. Your turn, Ju-ni-per," she said very matter-of-factly, relocking the lock by hand, then stepping back to let her friend go. Becca just knew Juniper would have a much cleaner charm.
