ooc: You may begin dueling as soon as you have found your partner. Remember to stick to Expelliarmus for now.

Anelreas shrugged her shoulders lightly. "Simple spells we know, I think. Nothing too dangerous or that will harm the other." She pointed to the rules on the board for Alex to read. She then glanced around. "I'd run if Amaris was in here."

She was friends with the girl, best of it, but with a wand in the Gryffindor's hand, Anelreas would run like mad. Or stay out of her way. She wanted to live to see her graduation day from the school. She never let herself nor Amaris forget their first meeting.

Stepping a few paces away, she held her wand in front of her. "Ready to tango?" She asked Alex, posing with her wand.

Afton grined. 2 people could play this game.
"oh yes. we should."
She smirked casually and withdrew her wand.
"she said we must start off with expelliarmus first..."
She drawled as well. she had no clue how she got into gryffindor when her whole family had always been in slytherin...mayb it was the bravery.....

"Um...partners Shelby?" Sarah asked her again?

"Well, Professor Rae said to stick to Expelliarmus, so I guess we just give that a try. Do you want to go first, or should I?"

"Alright then," she bowed and backed up about six feet, holding her wand up.

"Oh I never heard you I'm so sorry.Sure i'll duel with you."Shelby said startled

"Well accordin to tha professa we gotta conversate bout tha spells we finna use." Selena glanced ova at the professor. "personally i think it's a waste of time cuz you know da person u gon be fightin ain't gon tell u what curse dey bout to use, but i'm not gonna test Professa Rae's patience just yet." Selena grinned "uhhh I plan to use "Aquamenti" and uhhh prolly Petrificus Totalus on u." Selena glanced ova as she heard the professor speakin "or we can just stick to the preskool spell Expelliarmus"

Selena grabbed her wand and was ready for Noel

'Ginn, let's start!' Christy said happily, while she gave a bow.

"Wanna start?"Shelby asked sarah

'You can start'

"Ok. Um...You can cast a spell on me first and I'll use Expelliarmus." Sarah said, pulling out her wand.

"Doesn't Aquamenti conjure water or soemthing?" Noel asked, a little confused, "I was just going to stick with Expelliarmus for now but I can do something more advanced if you'd be bored with it."

Ginn bows to Christy and backs up a few feet. "Gimme your best shot Christy."

Shelby bowed and cast the spell "FLIPENDO!!"

Sarah waved her wand and muttered Expelliarmus. She felt shock as Shelby's wand jumped out of her hand.

"It sure does" Selena pointed her wand at Noel "EXPELLIARMUS"

Alex gave a small nod to approve of Anelreas's rules. She tried her back to hold back her smile when she heard the comment about Amaris. After all, she was also really good friends with the sixth year Gryffindor, but Anelreas was right. Everyone would be running if Amaris was caught with a wand in her hand and so many people around, especialy first yeas.

She slowly backed away until she was a few feet away from Reas. She got herself in the duelling position with her wand at the ready. "I'll go first," she told Anelreas. Taking in a slow, deep breath, she said, or rather ... yelled. "Expellriamus!" The spell went flying past Noel's head and almost hit her, but thankfully it did not. Alex still gave a small squeak.

The spell travelled fast through the air very fast and hit Anelreas. She was instantly knowcked backwards into the wall, and her wand simply swooshed out of her hand and started zooming towards Alex. She caught in her hand and ran over to Anelreas, making sure she was okay. Perhaps she put too much force into her spell?

Brushing Anelreas off from the dust, she handed the Slytherin girl her wand and slowly walked back over to her place. Once again, she got in the duelling position, with the wand at the ready. Giving Anelreas a grin, she said: "Your turn."

ooc- your only supposed to use expelliarmus to start out with...thats what she said.

Afton grined and raised her wand, looking over at Olivia to see if she was ready.

Sarah smiled and said "Ready for me to cast a spell on you?" Sarah asked her partner.

Olivia heard Professor Rae give the instruction about only using Expelliarmus. So, it was just going to be a simple disarming spell, Olivia had no problems with that. She straightened up and placed her footing according to proper dueling position.

"So, the Professor said Expelliarmus. Just Expelliarmus." She clarified just to be Afton heard her. She held out her wand in front of her like a sword, ready to do battle.

Noel had been caught completely off guard, before she could even move her wand two spells came flying at her, one nearly missed her and one knocked her wand out of her hand. "Not bad," she smiled at Selena as she picked up her wand, "But your bowing could be better EXPELLIARMUS!" she shouted, aiming the spell straight at Selena's wand hand, it wasn't traveling as fast as Alex's had, but it was pretty good.

"Oh sara i g2g.I have care of magical creatures right now"Shelby said in a rush

"Now, now Selena," Rae overheard the girl and stood outside of their aim. "I know this is too advanced for you, but I hate having to punish people in the Duelling Arena because they can't follow simple rules. This is a way to practice those rules. We'll get to more interesting spells next time."

Sarah blinked. "Oh. Fine, at least I go to practise. Bye Shelby." Sarah turned to the Proffesor. "When does class end proffesor?"
