@Kaia Stark vs @Elara Chatelain

If Angel was smart, he would have saved his energy and not agreed to proctor this year. But he had never really been that smart. He just hoped no one got too seriously maimed or injured in any of his matches, especially not in the first round. Once the two competitors seemed ready, Angel directed them up to their places at opposite ends of the platforms before address them and the crowd. "Welcome to your first round of duelling, let's have a nice clean duel today. The victor will be able to continue on to the rest of the tournament, and the loser will sadly be eliminated. When you're ready, please bow to your opponent and begin!" He said with a flourish, letting the students get started.
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!
As an added note: Spectators are allowed to post in this topic once per competitors post, but are forbidden from directly interfering with the duels.

Elara hadn't been sure if she would sign up for the dueling tournament, but after she saw one of her roommates on the list, she figured it might be somewhat fun. Taking to the stage, she listened to the Professor before bowing and throwing a stunning spell at her opponent.

Kaia wasn't the one who loved the chance to accidentally hurt someone but she did love a good competition so here she was. Hoping that her mom and cousin will cheer her up. She listened to what professor said, followed instructions and was a bit taken back as Elara was first to cast a spell but Kaia protected from it and shot back another spell. "Tarantallegra!" She just wanted to see how good her classmate was at dances.

Elara felt a rush of adrenaline as Kaia shot back a spell quickly and blocked it. "Tarantallegra," Elara exclaimed as she sent the spell back to her opponent.

Salem had her own duel to get to, but that wasn't stopping her from stopping back early to cheer on her friends. "Woo, go Elara!" She cheered from the sidelines as Elara blocked Kaia's spell, watching closely to see which girl would land the first hit.

Kaia almost let the spell hit her but in the last moment she blocked it. "Rictusempra!" If she was going for a good spells then she was staying here.

Elara didn't realize her other classmates were so good at dueling and ended up dodging Kaia's spell. She heard a small cheer for her and saw Salem, giving her a smile. Moving back into position, she sent back a slug-vomiting curse, having learned it from her older sisters.
Action(s) Taken: Dodged spell, cast spell

Kaia was quite satisfied with her work in the duel, her opponent dodged the spell and Kaia was also impressed by the girls reaction. "A good move," she supported the other girl before blocking the curse. "Petrificus Totalus," at some points she wished that the spell won't catch her classmate. It wasn't the sweetest one.

Elara was surprised by her classmates support and wasn't sure if it was supposed to be taunting or helpful. "Thanks," she replied back. "Locomotor Mortis." Elara sent back one of her favorite spells so far, wondering if this would be the spell to take out Kaia.

Kaia smiled at Elara before blocking the next spell. Wouldn't be fun if she was taken out exactly by this spell. The next move she did, she wasn't sure why exactly she did that, but she sent back a jelly-legs jinx, but she just hoped that it will hit her opponent.

Kiara came to watch the duels, she wanted to sign up but the fear of accidentally hurting someone didn't let her do that. But here she was, extremely confused by who she was supposed to support. Kaia was her cousin but Elara was her former little sister and friend, so she just choose the neutral side as always. "Go girls!" She didn't call any name and cheered. She was proud of both of them.

Elara was distracted by everything going on that she failed to block Kaia's spell in time and felt a weird sensation take over her as she collapsed on the ground. She heard a voice cheering and saw Kia in the crowd. Pushing her upper body up, she grimaced as she tried to cast a spell back at her opponent. "Stupefy!"
Action(s) Taken: Hit by spell, cast spell

Kaia grimaced as Elara caught the spell, it was the worst from all she had sent and it was the only that girl caught. She Didn't even notice Kiara, she was watching her opponent, she was continuing to duel. Kaia was kinda ready when she saw girl pulling up and she blocked the spell easily. She wanted duel to finally come to the end and sent: "Petrificus Totalus!"

Elara could feel her legs on the ground, and they felt like mushy skin puppets. She was allowed to duel from the ground, right? Pushing herself up, she tried to remember the spell to undo Kaia's spell, but it escaped her as she threw up a shield charm and sent the same petrification spell back to her opponent.
Action(s) Taken: Cast spell 2x

Salem grimaced when Kaia managed to hit Elara with a jelly-legs jinx. Elara seemed to be struggling, but she was hanging in there for now. Would it be cheating for Salem to yell out the counter-curse? Could Salem remember the counter curse? All she could remember was unjellify and she was pretty sure that was wrong.

Kaia had a weird moment, was she allowed to use finite to help Elara? They weren't on the same level anymore and they were actually supposed to duel like this? She almost let spell hit her and in the last moment she dodged it. "Stupefy!" Was this the one to take Elara out?
Action(s) Taken: dodged spel, cast spell
Point Changes: -10, -5

"Finite," Elara finally said, feeling her legs form back into some semblance of normal. She ducked to avoid Kaia's stunning spell and quickly stood up, feeling a little wobbly. "Everte Statum," she shot back, wondering how much longer she could do this. It was exhausting.
Action(s) Taken: Dodged spell, cast spell x2

Kaia was already tired and she just put up a weak shield but Elara's spell hit through it and Kaia didn't keep up on her feet and not really beutiful fell on her stomach and her wand fell out of her hand, and she just turned on her back. She didn't want to stand up. "You are amazing, I feel sorry for your next opponent," Kaia said while still laying on the floor. She didn't feel bad about losing, at least she was trying. However, she was sighing but more because she just wanted to at least keep the attention.
Action(s) Taken: lost the duel

Elara prepared herself for the next spell Kaia would throw out and was completely surprised when her spell worked, quickly ending the duel. Feeling exhausted, the Gryffindor couldn't believe she had just won her first duel. She couldn't wait to tell her sisters - they would be very jealous. "You were a great dueling partner! Are you okay?" she asked as she made her way over to help the Hufflepuff up off the ground.
 
Kaia looked up as Elara approached her and used the help from the girl to get up. "Yeah, it was fun. We should try that again," she joked while getting up. "I'm fine, just got tired. And you? I'm sorry for the jinx, it was the first that came up in my mind. But oh God, how did you even manage to get up to continue?" Kaia babbled and at some point lightly waved at Kiara, and then focused back on her classmate.
 
The two girls were going at it pretty hard for second years, but Angel was still surprised when one was launched off stage. She was up and talking a moment later, so he figured everyone was fine. "Elara Chatelain is the winner," he announced, somewhat belatedly.
 
Elara was glad to help her opponent up and then started laughing. "We should! Maybe we'll do it again next year," she said with a smile. "And you don't have to apologize for dueling! And I think I just heard my oldest sister in the back of my head telling me I need to keep going." When the professor called her name out as the victor, Elara beamed, totally confused by how she went from not wanting to sign up to actually winning her first match.
