Jory shook his hand furiously as even more of them tugged on his hair.

Out of the corner of his eyes, the YATI could see something green. His next marker! There was no time to waste. Finally, he shook the pixie from his finger which sent it flying off in the opposite direction. "Immobulus! Immobulus! Immobulus!'' Jory did the complicated wand movement wherever he felt pressure on his head and ears, each time producing blue light. "Immobulus! Immobulus!''

As soon as he had rendered as many of the pixies as possible helpless, Jory turned his attention fully to his next marker. He turned on the spot and with that popping sound was transported to his next destination.


The second after your feet touch the ground, the marker too turned red, success... but as this happens you come under fire from the Death Eater practice dummy, where a slew of hexes and jinxes - some more harmful than others - are directed at you. Should any of them hit, you might find yourself blind, dancing, eating slugs... or worse.

But be quick, you don't want to miss your last marker and final challenge!

From that point of view anyway. Simon didn't have a chance to even think about being relieved that he had made it as the next level of attack was initiated to come after him. He managed to dodge the first volley of arrows, even as he felt one rush along his upper arm. The way it stung beneath his shirt though made the auror think he would certainly need to check it out later. Once he was clear of the training route of course.

With a quick flick of his wand, he cast a shield charm hoping to deflect the rest as they came at him from both sides. Just long enough to head to the next glowing green circle. Even still he almost felt like he had to swing right and left to have to fend off them all. "Protego!" he cast after another close call, strengthening his shield so he could focus on appariting rather than dodging the arrow attacks. Catching a window in the onslaught, the auror quickly ran through the procedure.

Destination...Determination...Deliberation

Disappear and reappear. In the hoop he wanted.


From the corner of the dimly lit room, not far from your marker, the tendrils of a Devils Snare lash out, taking you by the ankle. Don't be pulled out of your marker, or you may not get back in and you won't reach the next marker.

Instead, he eyed everything he could see in the room and tried to spot something that did not change its position. Anything. It didn't look like he had much luck with that...except that one stain on the moving wall. He had no idea how that would help him.

Moreover he was not going to have much time the moment he would see his target so if he had to find out how he was going to get to it, he had to figure it out now.

Then there was the flashing green target. Eh...apparently he had to do for something simple and quick. The auror grabbed his wand and while moving to keep the green mark in his sight, he pointed his wand at it. "Arresto Momentum" Much slower so it was much easier to figure where it would be moving the next instant which was where he was supposed to apparate at. Not that now it would make much progress with the spell. He took a quick step and turned to his right on the revolving red mark to safely keep the green one in his sight. Then he eyed it quickly yet carefully to estimate how far it would move at the moment he would be there. And once he decided where he was supposed to apparate, slightly to the right of the green mark where it was moving to, he lost not time to apparate to it.


After getting through the first challenge, you land safely within the marker... or perhaps, not so safely. The second you touch down an angry shower of bricks and rubble shoot your way from numerous angles. It seems the Death Eater practice dummy is fond of oppugno. Dodge and deflect and make it to the next marker unscathed.
