"Uh...have fun!"

:: Lauren raised her hand. " No spells to mess or destroy the other person's mind. " she said to the teacher. ::

Anelreas raised her hand. "Be fair in your dueling. Give the other time to respond to the first few spells and only at a later time should you test their flexibility and agility. Don't treat every partner as your equal for we all have our own levels and skills." The last bit sounded a bit unfair and rude, but it did make sense.

"No unforgivables, But that's a given. In civilized dueling, don't use any spells that would severely hurt your opponent."

take turns when casting spells

"I believe that is a common rule that we all have come to know. Also, i think if there happenes to be any bloodshed the duel should end immediately."

Sarah copied down the rules on the board.

Alex raised her hand and thought for a second. "Practice the incantation beforehand so you don't accidently say it wrong and light someone on fire," she said, trying to keep her grin in and rememebering last term's happenings in the Slytherin Common Room.

"Also, you should be careful when aiming, so you don't aim at the wrong person. After all, I had seen an incident of this happening earlier in the common room," she slowly. She was, of course, talkig about Selena and when she 'accidentally' hexed a first year student. Shaking her head, she listened on and wrote down the rules on a new piece of parchment that had not been doodled on.

Afton raised her hand.
"Make sure you know what your doing. if you dont know what your doing, you could easily harm the other person."

Taking careful notes, Karen sat, trying to think of more rules that should be inforced while dueling...

Anelreas thought for a moment before raising her hand again. "Under no circumstances should you duel two against one, or an even greater number. The duel should be against two people and only for class. We're only students and are still learning of the consequences of dueling and shouldn't take the matter lightly."

Noel payed attention to everyone's answers but didn't speak, she had never payed the attention she was supposed to in DADA. She copied down a few of her peer's answers and a few of the rules with her dark quill. She thought a little then raised her hand, "Make sure you use the correct wand movement and take careful aim at your partner."

Sarah copied the last few rules.

do not use curses made for finished students

Antwone knew he may regret this question.

"Professor, what's the homework?"

Christy, finally copied the last Dueling rules.

Afton looked around for a partner. none of her friends was in this class at the moment.....

Sarah looked around. This was the part of class that she knew she wouldn't like: Finding a partner. Sarah looked around and saw Antwone. She walked over to him and asked, "Want to be partners?"

'Partner?' Christy though, 'But who?' She gave a look around her...

Rae posted the final list on the board. "You will receive the homework assignment at the end of class."[/color]

Anelreas stood and let her eyes roam over the room. She had the inconveinence of being paired with a first year last year and she nearly dismembered the poor dear. She much preferred dueling with someone her own year, as well as her house. Just her luck, she spotted Alex.

She walked over to the girl, pulling her wand from the inside of her robes. She gave a nod of the head as a greeting bow. "Duel me?" She asked with a thin smile.
