@Sydney Townsend @Padme Hume

Despite Eric's ridiculous but predictable attempt to attack after her last duel, Sydney hadn't let herself be phased. Duelling was the one chance she got to let lose and really test the bonds of the sort of spells she could perform and she wasn't going to let the sting on her cheek or his little temper tantrum cow her. Bowing to Padme, Sydney wasted little time casting her spell as Styx called the start of the duel, firing off a knee-reversal hex.

Padme had surprised even herself by making it to the second round of the duelling competition. She hadn't thought she would, and yet she had. She bowed to the slytherin girl she was facing and then returned to her spot. She blocked the spell and was quick, firing back with a quick Bat-bogey hex.

Sydney hadn't expected Padme to go straight in for a hex and grinned as she pulled up her shield. It was probably smart to not underestimate her opponents, she mused, not hesitating to cast her next spell. "Furnunculus!"

Padme blocked the next spell as it came towards her. She felt the power that Sydney was putting into her spell. She shot back quickly casting, "Densaugeo,"

Despite her personality coming off bland, Sydney was pleased Padme wasn't boring. Throwing up another shield, she shot back a bat bogey hex.

Sydney grinned as Padme had to dodge out of the way, blocking her slug vomiting jinx before firing back, hoping to keep Padme off balance. "Locomotor Mortis!"

Padme cast protego within enough time. Definitely not keen to get hit with a spell early on. she cast back quickly, "Diffindo,"

Sydney grit her teeth when Padme was able to keep her cool and shield herself. Not wanting to waste time throwing up another shield, Sydney held up her left arm, grimacing as Padme's spell sliced right through her robes and into her arm. She hoped the cut wasn't too deep, but she didn't want to let it deterr her, firing off her own spell quickly to try and catch Padme off guard again. "Incendio!"

There was more than a little bit of glee as she spotted her spell actually hitting the other girl. She couldn't help the light smile, though she did feel a little bad too. She was a little surprised by the pace at which the girl threw another spell, and she was only just barely able to get the shield up in time and reacted near instinctually and cast a trip jinx back

Sydney's arm was burning from the cut but she did her best to ignore it, wanting to push her advantage instead. She blocked Padme's spell and immediately fired back a jelly-brain jinx.

Padme didn't get her shield up in time and instant her brain just felt wrong. It was not a nice feeling. She dropped her wand and tried to get a word out, but she couldn't seem to form the sentences. This was embarrassing

---

Action(s) Taken: spell hit, lost duel, over the 24 hour time limit but I thought I'd conclude it any way, time is hard

Sydney grinned in triumph when her spell managed to hit, though some of her celebration was definitely cut short by the continued sting from the cut in her arm. She'd admittedly underestimated Padme at the start of the duel, but she had to admit the other girl had fought well, even if Sydney still had never doubted she'd win.
