However, though vigilance is key in anticipating not only the progression of your apparition markers but also the challenges you may face, deflecting physical assaults might not be your primary concern for the minute. A Stickfast Hex on the area where you stand may prove to be the greatest hindrance to your progression.
Hope you can think quick on your feet, because here comes the next flash of green!
Jackson had barely found his footing in the second marker he was on when in seconds it turned red. "
Honestly? I know that this test is all about keeping a person alert and keeping one on their toes and one step ahead, but I don't think they meant it to be literally," Jackson mumbled to himself as he quickly glanced around for that flashing green light.
'
Where are you?' he thought to himself, even as he quickly positioned himself to apparate out of this marker once he saw the signal.
.....and it was then, he realized that he couldn't move his feet. Jackson quickly looked down, as he tried raising one foot again. His feet were solidly stuck to the ground. "
What the heck?" Jackson cursed, shaking his head. He was now facing his first obstacle, the Stickfast Hex!
Without a second moment of hesitation, Jackson drew his wand and pointed it at his feet. With an upwards flick of his wand, followed with a quick twirl at the end, he called out, "
Skurge." A red beam of light shot out and hit his shoes. Jackson raised one foot and smiled when it lifted off the ground. The Stickfast Hex had been neutralized...and just in time too.
Up flashed the green light! Quickly taking a step back and turning on the spot, Jackson focused on his next destination and apparated over to where the marker was flashing green.
