Wand out wave horizontally from right to left and back again remembering that the axis of rotation is at the elbows, then cast spell."

Knowing that the Shielding Charm was a little more difficult, Alyssa continued practicing it. "I'm definitely going to be very familiar with this spell if I want to survive," Alyssa told herself.



She looked over to see whether Presley had made a decision. She'd give her a few more minutes. If she preferred to duel with someone else then Alyssa would ask someone else. Maybe Jesifur, even if she was looking for another 1st year student to partner.
