Drust Noble vs. Orion Ewel
Serena entered the room, moving towards the stage. She looked around and saw a group of students lined up by the stage. Lifting the parchment up towards her, she scanned the names off it. There were students that she did not recognise the name of. That did not matter, however. She was here to do a job, not to socialise, "Hello everyone. I'm Serena, one of the Hufflepuff Prefects and I'll be running your practice duel today. You should already know how to duel so I won't be teaching you, but rather overseeing it. When I call out your name, come to the stage and take your place opposite your opponent," She explained in a matter of fact tone that was unusual for her. Serena was usually seen smiling. This was definitely a far more serious side of the girl.
In truth, fighting was never something Serena enjoyed. In fact, if she had a choice then she would never let anyone fight. Unfortunately, with the recent events she had witnessed, she had learnt that it was essential to learn how to duel. She had seen too many people wound up injured after failing to perform a basic level spell. It was truly terrifying to know that her friends and housemates had been so close to death. Yes, students needed to learn basic duelling spells that would help them protect themselves in their time of need. Sadly, it was something they may rely on.
Glancing down at the paper, she picked the first two names that she saw on it, "Drust Noble and Orion Ewel, please take your places," She said calmly as she pointed to either side of the stage to indicate where they should stand. She took a deep breathe and watched the two. Drust was a Slytherin boy she had never seen before. Orion was a fellow Hufflepuff. She had heard about the time he used fire magic in the campout and the burnt tips of her hair was evidence of that. Lets hope this time goes more smoothly though. Hopefully they could avoid anything overly dangerous this time. Luckily, this was a much safer environment. This should be interesting though. The Cunning Snake versus the Fire Breathing Badger. A snake in a fire pit, would the snake escape before the fire gets to him or would he get burnt by it? Either way, she was hoping they would both be fine.
After they took their positions and performed their bows to each other. Once they looked ready, she spoke up in a firm but calm voice, "Good luck boys. You may begin."

Drust Noble vs. Orion Ewel
Drust clambered up onto the stage for the dueling practice. He didn't have much faith in himself, mostly because his knowledge of spells was fairly limited. But he trusted himself enough to try and be creative about what he did know. He waited to be given the go ahead, he only had his wand at the ready. He didn't want to do anything crazy before he was allowed to do it. So he remained stationary, at least for the time being. Then, they were allowed to go.
His wrist flickered immediately, "Wingardium Leviosa!" He knew that this was not a spell that worked on humans, but he was casting it on his opponents clothing, that way he could cause him to levitate, and hopefully disrupt any spell he wanted to send. From there he would simply attempt to toss him off of the platform, or drop him from a decent height to hurt him. He hoped it would work, and his stomach tightened as he went forward with the first spell.
The only thing he was concerned about, was having never really dueled before and his experience.
ACTION: Defensive Stance & Wingardium Leviosa (Levitation Charm)
