Regardless of the chilly weather during the winter season and the cool stone colored tones of the room, the dueling arena was comfortably warm. The arena itself would perhaps look different to some of the older students if they were able to get a look at it in the past. The dueling platform, target dummies, and even the stands were moved around in different locations, pushed to the side mostly, leaving a nice big empty space in the middle of the room. In that space were the familiar deep purple colored mats from the previous lesson lined up accordingly, including the deep red colored mat up at the front in-between the stands where Professor Romanos was currently seated, and in front of each purple mat was something that looked like a miniature tray. There won't be any food during the lesson unfortunately, but these trays will be acting as your desks. Unlike the last lesson, the room is illuminated and practically glowing from the winter sunlight streaming through the windows, giving the area a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Perhaps even make a few sleepy, but never fear. There will be no time to sleep during this class. And do ignore the added doorway in the back of the room. As strange as it's placement is, no one is allowed back there.
OOC: Please come in and take a seat on one of the mats [and be familiar with the rules and expectations]. The lesson will begin in about 12 18 hours or so.
Class has officially begun! Please don't post arriving late. Jump in as if your character has been here the entire time.
Final Task
Use of the Disarming and Shield Charms ONLY.
1st - 4th Years = No sense of SOUND
5th - 7th Years = No sense of SIGHT. You are all blindfolded.
It is alright to be disoriented and not get things right on the first couple of tries. Perhaps your aim is off or you can't say the spell correctly because you can't hear yourself speak. No one is perfect. It is okay. The Professor will be keeping a close eye on things, so please, no fatal injuries. And perhaps no drastic damage to the arena either. It's rather sturdy.
I'll give you a few days to RP, and we'll come to a close on things around the 13th.

Lily twisted her wand around in her hand as she watched Violet think about whether she wanted to go first or not. "Ok, I can go first but I have never performed either spell so I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work." Lily took a deep breath and got herself into a fairly ready position. She gripped her wand, made a small d shaped motion as she said, "Expelliarmus!" forcefully. A little quiver of light shot out of the end of her wand but didn't do anything. Sighing, Lily get ready again focusing harder on what she had to do. "Expelliarmus!" This time the beam of light was stronger as it headed towards the other Ravenclaw, but it definitly didn't seem like enough to knock a wand out of someone's hand, maybe not even move it. "Did you want to try now? and we can switch back and forth so that we both get a chance to try it..." Lily asked, getting out of the attacking stance.

He grinned widely when he noticed that his third attempts were succeed. He finally managed to disarm his partner this time not himself. Go him! "Thanks." he said with that stupid grin in his face.
"No. Go ahead. Its your turn anyway." Besides Professor Romanos hasn't give them a green light to move on to the next charm so it mean they still could practice the disarming charm. "Ready!" Messer said. Like before a jet of light come from the tip of Ella's wand toward him fast and it flew his wand even before he had time to blink his eyes. "Nice one, Ella." he picked his wand again from the floor. He seem did that a lot today.
"Mind if I try the spell again?" he asked Ella. But before he could hear Ella answer, he heard a loud BAAM!
"BOMB! Its a BOMB!"
Ella smiled, feeling proud that she was doing the charm correctly. "Thanks!" she said brightly. Hearing that Messer wanted to go again she smiled. "Sure you can go again!" Ella said and was just about to get ready for Messer's charm when she heard a piercing sound and jumped to the floor, hearing Messer yell "BOMB." She looked around wide eyed, wondering what had happened.

Minerva smiled at his surprise. "Didn't think I would do it did you." She raised her wand doing the movement again. "Expelliarmus" she crossed her arms and waited.

Out of his hand flew is wand again. He walked over and picked it up again. " No, I knew you could do it. Ya just took me be surprise.... twice." he smiled.
Nate took a different stance aimed his wand at his opponents and said "Expelliarmus." Nothing happened. "What this is weird." Nate looked at his wand. When he looked at the tip it exploded. Not the wand but the spell. It backfired. Nate went back a few feet. He looked at himself. He was bleeding but not alot of blood came out. He saw a few bruses starting to form.
She put her lips together and tried not to laugh,"Expelliarmus." She said while pointing at his wand.

Minerva couldn't help but giggle a bit. "Ok you try again." she had enough practice for now and wanted to watch Justin do magic again. She put her wand up. "I'm ready.. you better hurry I'm going to change your hair purple." she giggled again.
Nate stood up to see a spell coming towards him. He quickly jumped out of the way landing on the floor again. While laying on the floor he pointed his wand at hers and said "Expelliarmus."
Mom says I have no sense of direction, so I packed my bags and right.

She picked up his wand and ran to him."Are you okay? I saw the charm hit your forearm. I'm not sure whether it is supposed to do that. I would like to try one more time, if it is okay with you. Then it'll be your turn to try all you want. I want to see whether I can catch the wand this time. Here's yours back." Alyssa asked as she handed him back his wand.
Then she ran back to where she previously stood and turned to face him. "READY?" She yelled across to him. Concentrating on the spell and focussing on the wand in Oakey's hand, she performed the wand movements, a circular motion with a swift upward stroke and pointed it at Oakey's wand. "Expelliarmus". Again she saw a beam of light shoot out towards Oakey again.
I really don't think you have to catch my wand Alyssa. . She handed his wand back to him and seemed have ignored his plea not to win over his wand. After Sierra won his wand over during the capture the flag game in charms class Oakey became overly protective of his wand.
The streaming bright light came towards him once more and hit his right shoulder! His right arm shot up and his wand released from his hand above his head. Oakey starred it down as his wand made its decent like an infielder in a game of muggle baseball would a pop fly.
Reaching his arm back out he let his wand drop right back into his hand and gripped it firmly. Nice one, Alyssa. He called across to her.
Minerva couldn't help but giggle a bit. "Ok you try again." she had enough practice for now and wanted to watch Justin do magic again. She put her wand up. "I'm ready.. you better hurry I'm going to change your hair purple." she giggled again.
Oh no, Purple hair. Not again... Raising his wand and tracing the D motion " Expelliamus. " and before she could her wand had flipped out of her grasp.
" Ha! Nice try , Babe. " he joked as she went to retrieve her wand.
Jen thought a moment. Oh now I remember
"Just copy me"
Jen took her wand and moved it in a d motion
"Expeliarmus!" She called out. A red light started to erupted from her wand but failed.
"Hum...What am I doing wrong?"
Laura suddenly remembered what she was suppost to do, she concentrated hard and screamed. "EXPELIARMUS." and did the wand movement, but the spell didn't go in the direction it was suppose to, it missed Jen and went behind her, hopefully no one was there. "Sorry Professor." Laura sighed, "I have no idea why that happened." Laura looked at Jen. "You can have another try if you want.

"Okay" Jen said
She pointed her wand at Laura.
"Expelearus!" Jen called out as she waved her wand to make a d. A red light ejected out knocking Laura's wand out of her wand Cool

Laura looked at Jen and smiled. "That was cool." Laura quickly picked up her wand and decided to have another go. "Expeliarmus!" Laura was glad when her spell connected and Jen's wand flew out of her hand.

"would you like to go first? or should I?"
"You can go first," Alice said, giving a quick nod to Kurumi before turning back to her partner. She readied herself for the Disarming spell that was soon going to come her way, trying to think of numerous ways to deflect it.

Alex's wand seemed to jerk in her hand, causing her to nearly drop it. "Well, that was a little better." Turning towards the other girl Silvia said, "Vlimia, feel free to jump in when you're ready."
Alex felt that she would have dropped her wand had she not been expecting the spell. "That was really close Silvia. You should try it one more time." "I have feeling that it's going to happen next time", Alex said to her friend.

She definately knew how to keep him on his toes. No sooner had she picked up her wand was his flying out of his hand. He smiled, " so, that's how you want it , eh? " and with a flick of his wrist hers was on the floor again. This time he hadn't said a word. He just thought of the disarming spell. He hoped he wouldn't get in trouble for doing the spell without saying at loud.
