Words couldn't describe the excitement the Third Year felt as she bolted down staircase after staircase, shoved student after after student that stood in her way and jumped over this one kid that seemed to like the ground, really she couldn't tell, nor did she WANT to tell because at the moment her mind was gainfully occupied with the activity ahead.

She threw the door to the dueling arena open and stopped only briefly to catch her breath and ensure Felix was still breathing. That done, she made big, important steps into the room. Today seemed to be her lucky day, she had the arena all to herself. GRIIIIIIIIIN. Lex set Felix down on a bench, the poor thing was motion sick, and plopped down on the floor next to him. "Alright Felix, you get to see something epic today." She said, while flipping through the book of spells her father had gotten her to go with her hexes, jinxes and curses books. Such a good man, quite supportive in her endeavours. Quite shocked she actually wanted to read too.

Ah hah! Just the one she wanted. She held the book higher so the kneazle could see. "This one's just like that other spell Mr. Vinteren taught me...only not because it's not a curse really." Lex slapped the book shut. "Hang on, I'll show you." She hopped up and placed the book next to him before walking closer to one of the dummies.

Alexa raised her wand, took a deep breath then aimed at the thing. "Bombarda...bom-bar-da..." Just getting the incantation first. "Alright, now watch closely."

First, she focused just the way Mr. Vinteren had instructed her that time. "Bombarda!"

BOOM!

Lex squealed with absolute delight at the sound of the explosion. IT WORKED! "Did you see that????" Clearly Felix did because he was now sitting with his back a bit straighter. She had his attention! Eeep! Usually the feline was fine with sleeping until she completed whatever it was that she had dragged him along for.

She took aim at another. "Bombarda!" And another and another until there was a succession BOOMs and ripples of giggles escaping the Gryffindors lips. She liked explosions, they made prettiful noises and were EPIC, not to mention the fact that they were LOUD. "Bombarda!" It was good the dummies fixed themselves up right after, meant she had more to blow up. Hehehehehehehe. She could do this all day.

"BOMBARDA!!"
