Now this is just a filler chapter really. Nothing really happens tbh. But a duel. Yay.

Elise's POV:

The last lesson of the day has finally arrived. DADA. In other words Defence Against The Dark Arts. It was my favourite lesson oddly enough. I was most comfortable with dark magic, that scares me. The fact that I can conjure dark magic perfectly.

"alright class today we will be duelling. I have paired you up. Cassy with Black, Malfoy with Parkinson and Riddle with Hawthorn" she paired the rest up as well but I tuned out. Me and Riddle? Battling? Well this should be interesting.

Cassy sends me sympathetic smile and I shrug my shoulders. "Come along Elise" Tom beckons. Huffing, I walk behind him, silently cussing him.

We face each other, about 10 paces away. "Now just because you are a girl I'll go easy on you" Tom smirks. I roll my eyes "Just because you've got a nice face I'll go easy on you" I tease. I hold my wand tight. "Diminuendo" a white light is flying towards Tom, who easily deflects it. "Is that it?" He says darkly.

I grit my teeth as I whisper "everte statum" in a few short seconds Tom is thrown back, his who body colliding with the wall. "Expelliarmus" Tom waves his wand. My wand flies off into God knows what direction. I smirk. "You really think that will affect me? I can do wand less magic you moron" I snarl. "Fiendfyre" I mentally say. Of course I can do wand less magic and wand magic without say it.

A fire demon erupts and rawrs. It begins to flow to Riddle, who has conjured a water demon. They clash bodies and both fight.

I watch curiously, they slowly defeated each other.

Tom turns to me and summons a snake. He starts speaking parcel tongue, he was egging the snake on. I begin to argue with the snake, I was born a parcel tongue. Tom looks up at me confused. He carries on and pushes harder, his words rash and demanding. I however, equally match his parcel tongue. The snake looks confused and lost. It begins to slither away into the fire, killing itself.

We start firing spells at each other at a rapid speed. Without noticing, we went into dark magic. Our curses would kill others but we deflected them easily. There was no end to our duel. It was us. Two very powerful beings, balancing the scales.

I begin to get frustrated. My anger was boiling and burning. A huge burst of magic exploded out of me, shatter the windows and the fire that was lit begins to grow. I created a ring of fire around me, unconsciously anyway. My heart was in my head. I could tell Tom was trying as well. So one last push. I quickly dis harm him. "I WIN" I cry, then all I remember is falling to the ground.
