Stepping into the arena, you are immediately enveloped with the light shining into the room, either morning or evening depending on what time you decide to enter. If you can tear your gaze away from the intricately designed windows and high ceilings could, you can see to the very right of the room, there is the long platform in which supervised duels will take place while four benches on either side are placed at a safe distance for those who would like to sit and watch. Just ahead of the platform in the right corner, there is a door, though pay no attention to it. It's locked for a reason.
Towards the back wall, there are various types of practice dummies, both stationary and moving, depending on what difficulty the practicer wants. Don't be afraid to go all out with your spells, for these dummies are charmed to repair themselves. There is one practice dummy set aside that will shoot spells back to the practicer, however, permission from a Professor is required to use it. To the left side of the arena are two sets of stands, eight seats high, that look out to the entire arena, comfortable for those who would just like to watch what's going on all around or for general purposes such as studying or relaxing after a long day in the arena.
The middle of the room is quite empty, due to the fact that the defense Professor enjoys presenting lessons in here, but please, despite the brilliant light that shines through the arena due to the large windows, it is not some place to sunbathe or fall asleep. You will be levitated out with a good dose of cold water splashed on you if caught.

Sander ducked instinctively while holding tightly to his wand. He watched as Alex's disarming spell, bounced off harmlessly off his shield but with that last spell, his shield weaken and then disappear. He pointed his wand at her and called out "Ebublio". A purple beam shot out towards Alex. If he was successful, she would be trapped in a giant bubble.

OK, this was it. Alex HAD to avoid this spell. She summoned all of her energy and once again said, "Protego". At the same time, Alex dove to the right, just in case her shield charm didn't work. She managed to barely avoid Sander's bubble spell.
Quickly getting to her feet, Alex fied her last gasp spell. She shouted,"Incarcerous", and ropes shot forward in the direction of Sander. Alex didn't immediately see the result of of her spell as she fell to her knees in exhaustion. She didn't know what was wrong with her today. She was so tired, too tired for the limited activity she had had today. Alex looked up to see how Sander had fared,

Sander had expected to dodge his spell which she did successfully. He had seen how fast she was during their practice but he didn't expect her to be that fast in counter-attacking and he was caught by surprise when she sent ropes flying his way.
He immediately ducked to avoid them when he belatedly realized that he no longer had his shield charm to protect. He quickly tried to raise his wand to cut the ropes but found that he was moving too slow....and then it was too late, the ropes wrapped around him and he couldn't raise his wand to cast the spell.
"Good one. We're even now." he called out to her as he waited for her to cast the spell to unbind him.
Sander frowned to himself. In normal situations he would have been able to dodge the ropes or send a counter spell back to cut them before they got close to him. But this time he hadn't been able to. His movements were slow and sluggish and he was actually beginning to feel winded.
Then he noticed that Alex was sitting on her knees and he rushed over to her. "Are you okay? You're not hurt are you? Do you want to take a breather?" he asked her. Sander wanted to say that he too needed a rest.

Alex managed to raise her wand and say, "Finite Incantatem". Sander's ropes were cut and he immediately came over to check on her. "I'm fine", Alex said as she tried to catch her breath. She reached out and grabbed Sander's hand, hoping to get a little help standing up.
"But I could use that breather. I think I need to call it a day. You think I might get a rematch another time?"

Sander nodded. "Sure we can. Let's call this one a draw. To be honest, for some unknown reason, I'm feeling tired myself and could use a break myself. " he confessed to his name twin.
Slowly getting up, he grabbed hold of Alex's hand and helped pull her up to stand on her feet. "I think we both need something to eat. Let's head down to the Great Hall." Sander suggested as he put an arm around Alex to help support her, and walked out of the dueling arena with her.

Bay was told to meet Sander here to Duel.. he hasn't done this yet here at School.. he had to practice with his mother.. Walking in this room was huge, his jaw dropped.

Sander shuffled into the dueling arena. He was already beginning to regret having asked Bay to duel with him. With the current status of his memory, he was already forgetting the incantations to a lot of spells and worried that he would have the problem with his dueling offensive and defensive ones.
He groaned silently when he saw that Bay was already waiting for him in the arena. He was hoping to be able to pull out his spell book and try to remember some of the important spells he would need for this duel, but he wasn't going to be able to do that now.
He waved to Bay and called out to him, "Hey Bay. I can see that you're ready to duel. Have you done it before. I can tell you the ground rules," Sander told him even as he struggled to remember what they were.

Lux had never been to a duel before, so of course she was excited to see Bay and Sander get down to it. Carrying a sign in support of Bay, she took a seat in the stands and waited for them to start. This was going to be a lot of fun!
She hoped that Sander wouldn't mind her supporting Bay. Oops.

Tessa walked into the dueling arena, looking around for where her friends had ended up. She thought she was at the right time... and right day... what was she doing here again? What room was she in...
Thankfully, when she saw Lux in the stands, everything clicked back. She walked over, giving the young Hufflepuff a wave. "Hey there Lux, have they started yet?" she asked, taking a seat and looking for the two boys.

"Im pretty sure I know what to do… lets get started bro" he said while laughing at Lux's sign for him and he gave Tessa a big smile.

"What do you want to count to??" he asked.
"Lets take five steps and then when we're ready, we'll call out and start," Sander told Bay, glad that he didn't have to go through the steps of something he totally couldn't remember right now.
He did remember that bowing was involved and did that first. He bowed to Bay, then turned around and walked five steps before turning around and assuming the dueling position with wand up. Then he noticed Tessa and Lux in the stands and waved to them.
'Okay where were we again? Oh yeah, dueling stance." Sander quickly resumed the position.
"I'm ready," Sander called out and began thinking of the first spell to use.

"Alright sounds like a plan" he said while walking five steps away. one…two…three…four…five and he stopped.
Bay went into his stance and shouted he was ready also. "ready mate!" now let the fun begin.

The moment Bay called out that he was ready, Sander immediately pointed his wand at Bay and said, "Ebublio" and watched as a purple light shot out from his wand and headed towards Bay. If the spell worked, and Bay wasn't able to avoid it, he would be trapped in a giant bubble.

Bay didn't even have a spell in mind and Sander was just to fast… he saw a purple light come at him and he was in a huge bubble… "gahhh you win Sander" he said wondering how he can get out of it...

Sander was surprised that Bay hadn't even tried to shield himself. No....no....no...he couldn't call it a win unless he knew for sure that Bay was trying his best.
"Do you want to try this again?" Sander suggested to Bay even as he pointed his wand at the bubble and freed Bay by ending the spell.
"Come on Bay, I'm sure you know some defensive spells," he tried encouraging the younger boy.

"yeah i so totally want to try again, my mind was else were" mostly homework and stuff that he needed to do..
he got in his stance and shouted "ready.. lets try this again" he said with a smile, while searching for a spell quickly in his head.

Sander nodded, grinning at his friend. "Great let's try this again. I'm ready whenever you are. Hit me with your best shot," he called over to Bay, before immediately going into his dueling stance.
...but then suddenly he felt the urge coming on again.
'No...no...now is not the time to do this, ' Sander thought desperately to himself. 'Keep it down, Sander...keep it down,' he kept telling himself, even as he tried to concentrate on the duel at hand.

Okay so it was his time to go first… alright he thought of a spell as he yelled "Alerte Ascendare" if it hit him he would be shot up in the air.. or if he blocked it he should be safe.

Sander heard the words coming out of Bay's mouth and immediately went on the offensive...and then realized he forgot the incantations to the shield charm, 'Protecto....Protectme....wait I know...Protego!". Sander quickly moved his wand, creating an upward arching flick with his wand, followed by a horizontal line and said the words,"Protego" but it was too late.
Bay's spell hit him and sent him flying up in the air...and as he came falling down, that's when he couldn't hold it back any longer.. He let out the fart, he was trying to hold back.
TOOT!!
Sander hoped that neither Bay, or either of the girls sitting in the stands, had heard that.
But then he had worse things to worry about, he was now falling from a great height with nothing to cushion his fall. Flailing his arms, he called out,"Bay! Tessa!! Help!!" he called out even as he looked around for something. Maybe a dummy? All Sander knew was that if someone didn't help him, he was going to fall crashing onto the floor...and Professor Romanos wasn't going to like that...not one bit.
Then he remembered a spell. He waved his wand in a letter S formation, pointed it at the ground and said,"Spongify". He watched as a pink beam of light streamed out from his wand and hit the ground. If his spell worked, the ground would become rubbery and spongy.
Sander closed his eyes and braced himself for the impact. "Please work, please work," he kept whispering to himself. The ground came closer and closer and then.....
BAM!! Sander landed on the ground and bounced up and down a couple of times before lying still on the ground.

Bay saw Sander fumbling around with his wand.. "come on Sander block it" he thought while seeing his friend fly up into the air and he heard a what…. Bay didn't know what to think of it… he saw is friend falling and he ran over but ohhh Sander cast a spell and he was bouncing.. [i]"cool"[/b] he made it to his friend "Hey are you okay??" he asked and then he smelt something weird… he backed away a little bit from him.

Sander was so glad the Softening charm had worked. He didn't know why he has been able to remember the incantation to that spell and not the simpler shield charm, but right now he didn't care.
When Bay asked whether he was alright, Sander raised his hand up from the floor and gave him a thumbs up sign before slowly turning to lie on his back.
"Yes I'm fine. I just got the wind knocked out of me. I'll be fine in a few minutes." Sander reassured Bay as he slowly sat up. The rubberized and spongy flooring had absorbed most of his fall but his body still ached all over.
Sander looked over at Tessa and Lux sitting up in the stands and waved to them. He suspected that he most have scared the both of them too.
"So do you want to go another round? Best out of 3?" Sander stoically asked Bay. He didn't know whether his body could take another beating but he wasn't going to let that stop him from finishing the duel.

Bay laughed when he saw the thumbs up. "phew man.. you got me scared" he said while watching him lay down on the floor. "but I'm happy your safe thats for sure." he gave a wink to his friend.
Sander wanted to go again.. errrrr Bay looked at him and he didn't look like he could endure any more.. "errr how about we just call it a draw???" he said hopefully his friend wouldn't think he was letting him off easy..but he did almost kill him so he was backing off.. "we can always duel another time right?" he said.

Sander silently breathed a sigh of relief when Bay declared that they would call their duel a draw. "Err...are you sure? I guess we can try this another time. " Sander relented as he slowly got to his knees and then with his hands balanced on his knees, he pushed himself into an upright standing position...if you called a little hunched over upright.
Then he placed his hand on Bay's shoulder in a friendly gesture of friendship....but mainly to help prop himself up, before waving to the ladies in the stands, motioning them to join them both at the entrance of the arena.
Today's duel would be another draw for Sander. But he was fine with that. As he left the arena, Sander turned around suddenly remembering that he had forgotten to end the Softening Charm. Pointing his wand at the ground, he ended the spell, saying, "Finite."

Agreeing to duel with Alice Fischer could result in a number of things happening:
1) He could lose drastically to someone who was much stronger and braver and... well... scarier than him
2) Alice would kill him, or hit more bludgers at him, if he hurt a hair on her head
3) West would do the same if he hurt Alice. Double bludger attack by the two Captains
GULP.
Yeah, he was scared. What was he thinking when he agreed to this? ... Mainly that it would be great to hang out with Hulk since they hadn't since... Carter's wedding? With the awkward dance. And Tag causing a fuss because he insisted on sitting next to Alec. A small smile spread across Alec's face as he sloooooowly made his way into the duelling arena. That had been an awesome day.
Grey-blue eyes scanned the arena, his hands massaging his lower back. It still hurt, that did. And the throbbing pain he was getting near his knees weren't helping. Why was this place so far away from the Great Hall, again? He didn't like that. Wincing a little, the Head Boy reached up and over his head before streeeeeeeeetching. Might as well lumber up before the Gryffindor Captain got here, yeah? Because he wanted to give this duel his all, even if he knew, deep down inside, that there wouldn't be any winning against Alice. Stretch... stretch...

Stretch... stretch...
... and that was enough for today.
... So... where was the Gryffindor Captain?
It was near impossible to duel well on an empty stomach, so her first stop that morning had been for snack fetching. Alice had seriously considered bringing something for opponent too, but she wasn't meant to be NICE to him today, yes? Plus Romanos might hex her head off if she caught them eating in her arena, so... no. Food for her. And none for Alec Summers, bye.
Trying to ignore the painful throbbing of her knee, she appeared behind the Head Boy while he stretched. Hmm. Did she have to do that? Bending any of her limbs in unnatural ways would be difficult for her body, which tired far too quickly as of late, so Alice opted to just watch him instead.
"Hi." Was he ready? She was ready. Very ready.
Full tummies and large egos did good things to her confidence.
