Estrella was still surprised by her success in Defense class. Instead of sitting back and appreciating the small bit of wandless magic that she had accomplished, she wanted to spend her time honing whatever skill she had with this new form of magic. She still felt completely bare without her wand in her hand. The Ravenclaw had realized that there were times that the wand had to stay in her pocket if she wanted to get anywhere. Thus, she found herself at the lakefront with nothing in hand. She didn't want to lug around a heavy bag more than she had to.
The lake had a variety of objects that she could summon. Plus, being outside with the sun warming her skin was much better than practicing in the cold, dreary Dueling Chamber. She could only take the Dungeons in small doses. Why Slytherins would want to spend time there was beyond her.
Slipping her shoes off, she set them next to her. She dipped her feet in the lake, recoiling at how cold the water was. The girl forced herself to immerse her toes beneath the water's skin once more. The only way to tolerate chilly water was to get used to it.
Reaching into the water with one of her hands, she dragged her fingertips across the bottom. When her fingers curled around a decent sized rock, she pulled it out and put it on the grass. If she was ever going to get anywhere with wandless magic, she would have to start out small.
After drying her hand on her robes, she held it out towards the rock. "Wingardium Leviosa," she stated. Nothing happened. Relaxing her shoulders a bit, she attempted the charm again. Her lips curled upward as the rock rose a decent three feet into the air. Waving her hand, she moved the object back and forth, entirely too amused with a simple task- that ultimately, wasn't simple at all.
