It was time for the final round, with only two teams of competitors left to duel it out for title of Champion for their year. Plenty of the other years already had their results, one of which had been victorious by default through a stroke of luck. Katherine led Holland and Ayers to their places, gesturing at either end of the platform before taking her own position overlooking them all. "Duelists, wands at the ready. This is the final round, to decide which of you will be crowned as champion. Make it count. Now, bow and commence." The Headmistress called, signaling for them to begin.
The duel begins now. You have 24 hours to post, or face disqualification. Ensure that you use the spell list for guidance on age-appropriate spells, and read over the dueling rules and points system. If you are knocked out or otherwise disarmed/incapacitated, or if you run out of points, you will lose and the duel will end. Have fun!

@Diana Holland @Arvel Ayers
 
Current Points: 150

Arvel had never made it to the final round of the duelling tournament before, and he was as nervous as he was excited. Of course, his opponent had to be Diana. He bowed, took his position, and sent off a Jelly-Fingers Curse.

The last time Diana had made it this far in the Duelling Tournament she had lost to Analei. Something like that couldn't happen again. Losing to Arvel would be even worse, so she had to make sure to beat him. She grinned at him, then bowed briefly. She put up a shield charm to block his spell, then sent off one of her own. "Stupefy!"

Diana's grin was disconcerting. She was confident, and that couldn't be a good thing. Arvel quickly blocked her stunning spell, then said, "Impedimenta!"

The Hufflepuff boy had no chance of winning as far as Diana was concerned. She kept her smile on her face as she blocked his spell. Then she cast a new spell of her own. "Expelliarmus!"

For a moment Arvel forgot what he was doing. By the time Diana cast the disarming spell, he was too late to summon a shield, and had to step out of the way instead. He readjusted his grip on his wand and gave him a second to refocus. "Serpensortia," he said. The snake uncoiled on the stage and began to slither its way toward Diana.

Diana felt good when she saw that Arvel wasn't able to block her spell, though she was disappointed when he managed to dodge it. The boy's next spell made her take a step backwards, and she frowned at the snake and then at Arvel. Yes, it was gross, but that didn't mean it would make her lose this battle. "Incendio!" She called, aiming for the snake mostly but trying to aim at Arvel a bit at the same time. She hoped it would scare the snake away from her so she could focus on her opponent again.

Arvel had hoped Diana would be more scared of the snake, but he guessed she was used to them, being in Slytherin. He raised a shield to protect his feet from the errant sparks of her next spell, and then cast the jelly-fingers curse.

Diana grinned at Arvel to show she was undaunted, then blocked his spell quickly. She stepped forward as she cast her next spell, hoping to catch him by surprise. "Petrificus Totalus!"

Arvel wished Diana would stop grinning - she was putting him off. He managed to cast a shield charm just in time, and then countered it with a simple disarming spell.

Diana's amusement was fading a little as Arvel just kept on blocking her spells. She had expected him to fall sooner. She blocked his spell and frowned a bit as she focused. She sent a jelly fingers curse his way.

Arvel ducked out of the way of Diana's oncoming spell. Now he was getting annoyed. Forgetting his principles, he said, "Incendio."

Diana was glad Arvel had to avoid her next spell by dodging, but yelped in surprise at his next spell, jumping back as she cast a shield charm to protect herself from the flames. She had used the same spell earlier, but hadn't expected Arvel to use it. "Stupefy!" She yelled, simply casting the first spell that came to her mind.
