Originally Posted by Ivy Nienna Ivory walked breathlessly into the arena. Having just run from the library to the dormitories and now here, she was very near winded.
Placing her hands on her knees to catch her breath, she tried to look on the bright side...at least she was limbered up for her duel and odds were she wouldn't pull anything in her attempts to doge, jump, and flee.
Looking around she took stock of her surroundings, just as she'd overheard her grandfather always tell her cousins.One never knew what could be used to aide in a duel. Sure she'd usually been doing something else entirely when he taught her older cousins the finer points of dueling every summer, but she had watched at times and somethings were bound to stick after so long.
Spotting the other people in the room, Ivory tried to stand as straight as possible. She had just found out she'd grown half an inch so she was trying to make it as noticable as possible. She was proud as a button to finally be growing even if it was just a measly half inch.
Stretching her arms a bit, she walked over to where Gold was standing with Allison's friend Emily, whom she'd met in Herbology. "Hey Gold! Hiya Emily!"
Bouncing on the balls of her feet as she greeted her semi-new acquaintances, Ivory let her excitement for what was to come show in a brilliant smile.
She knew the odds were heavily against her...she was a first year after all and Gold was a Prefect for Merlin's sake, but she had still been craving another go at it since the first taste in DADA class, and who knew maybe this time she wouldn't be stunned and confounded all at once. Gold had given Emily a cheerful smile, and was now waiting for Ivory, arms crossed against her chest, not in anger or anything, but in a happy, sort of bored way.
Her bright, green eyes acquired a happy glow, the moment the Ravenclaw walked in... and my, did Ivory look excited, too! Gold was glad the younger girl was here. She had thought, for a second there, that she might have noted down the wrong time.
"Hey, Ivory," she said, cheerfully, tucking a bright red bang of hair behind her ear. She needed to get those bangs, out of the way! That thought, the Prefect produced a hairband out of her pocket and, with its help, pushed her brilliantly red hair, back.
It was something she always did, when setting out for a duel, but she had been so cheerful lately, she had pretty much forgotten, this time round. But at least she remembered, now!
"Ready?" she asked her Ravenclaw partner, as she assumed the proper stance for a duel, and quickly drew her wand out of its holster. She was going to let Ivory make the first move.
Because that would be fair, right? |
