[font=Times new roman]This was nerve-wracking, never once did Delilah think she would be hosting a game like this. She stood in the duelling room, but instead of being on the stage, everybody was situated in a circle on the floor. There wasn't nearly enough room on that stage for 14 participants.

Delilah stood in the middle of the circle, absolutely baffled at the number of people that had turned up, "So, everybody, I know I kind of explained this before, but basically, this will be kinda like a normal duel, but a free for all, there are no teams...I suppose you could team up if you really wanted? But there's only going to be one winner. The winner gets...." Delilah rummaged in her pocket, not having prepared a prize beforehand. She pulled out 5 gold coins. "5 galleons, I suppose." Pocketing the prize money again.

"There are a few small rules, try not to hit me is the first one, I'm just here to make sure nobody gets truly hurt. No physical combat, you will be immediately disqualified for that. And uh..have fun?"

Delilah spun around at the contestants, nobody from her year but she did know a couple of faces. Hopefully nobody would get really hurt, there were a couple people with Del in the background to help take people to the hospital wing. This could end up either absolutely fascinating or completely hellish. Thankfully there weren't any part-giants, shouldn't be too hard to take people to the hospital wing if they need it.

"So uh yeah...go." She said awkwardly as she shuffled out of the circle and up onto the stage to watch them from a higher point, and hopefully be further out of harms way.

Youssuf walked onto the stage, his hand balled tightly around his wand in his trouser pocket. He still wasn't sure he'd done the right thing signing up for this Last Man Standing duel thing. There would be many students of higher years, no doubt.

He cracked his neck, followed by his fingers and his toes. It was a rather irritating, yet oddly satisfying activity. It was a kinda ritual of his before battle. He prayed silently to Kartikeya, the God of War, to grant him victory, joining his hands. Then he opened his eyes and drew his wand in a whip-like motion. He grinned at Lizzy and Cody, both of whom were participating in the free-for-all.

5 Galleons was the prize. Nothing to him, of course (his monthly allowance was almost twice that), but still a nice amount of money to pack away. He listened to the rules. Very simple. Don't hit the moderator, no physical combat and have fun. Only a few of the fourteen people were firsties; most were higher years, as he'd expected. They had a distinct advantage. Ah well, too bad.

"No hard feelings, eh?" he said to Cody and Lizzy. They were his friends, and he didn't really want to cast spells at em. Cody was an accomplished duellist though. He ought to be able to defeat plenty of people. Most likely.

The young Gryffindor glanced around, searching for a likely target, before settling on a person. He prepared to attack.

What a fun thing to do as a student of Hogwarts, the shadiest school ever existed. And yet, here she was, inside an ancient building that should have been closed decades ago, preparing herself to fight. Yes, fight with other students, though this time, it seemed like things were legal in the eyes of the law. Duelling, a perfect occasion where you can do violence with no consequence. Probably just unresolveable bad blood between some, nothing she couldn’t handle.

Aurora Ranvier, the girl that always wanted to prove everyone her worth. For what reason? She just thought it was a necessity. Little did she know how wrong she was. In later years, she would grow, there would be a time where the realisation hit. It is a waste of time to please other people. Let them cringe. Their contrarians were just a speck of dust, meaningless. Should they deserve the times that she spent staying up all night using her brain to think about frivolous crap they spit out? Till the moon split into five pieces, it would be impossible for everyone to give her five star glowing reviews.

But for now, she wore the combat boot that added 2 inches to her original height, hopefully boosting the intimidation. Plus, if anyone needed a kick or two, the tough footwear would do enough damage. A black faux leather trousers that actually felt comfortable despite how it looked warmth her legs, and of course, her upper body wasn't bare. An oversized cream coloured turtleneck with an addition of a chequered coat covered her body. That was the outfit of the day. Her usual long loose multicoloured hair styled in a simple updo with a lavender scrunchie. Like french fries and vanilla ice cream, the colourful highlights decorated her dark brown strands, a weird combination but blended to perfection.

Five galleons, it was the price she would get for knocking people unconscious. Has anyone ever thought of how messed up this school was? But hey, imagine how many chocolates you could send to Nicholas’ doorstep? Being the one last standing would be ruthless, but if that would put a smile on his face, she might have to put the enemies in the right place. Six feet under the ground. Not literally.

Juniper walked into the duelling club area, already gripping her wand tightly in her hand. She signed up once she heard "every man for themself". She had always wanted to do something like that, she just never figured it would be duelling. She didn't even know flipendo, but she knew incendio and a few other things. What worried her was that incendio was allowed now. Last time she used that, she got screamed at. She looked around at some familiar faces, most of which looked older than her. Instantly she tried to gulp down the panic and put on a brave face. She knew she wouldn't last half as long as anyone else. As a tiny person, she was either an easy target or that person everyone saved for last.

She locked eyes with Henry and forced a smile. She knew his secret, and she had always took it as her mission to not let anyone know. And she also felt happy that he trusted her with it. "Good luck." She tried to say, but it sounded more like an awkward cough. She looked away. She knew very well Henry was great at spells and very strong, so she hoped she didn't have to go against him eventually. She looked at Samantha and tried for a joke. "Let's hope I don't end on fire again." That's how she met Samantha, anyway. She looked at Aurora, someone she wasn't sure where she stood in her view. "I like what you've done with your hair!" She said honestly.

Then she spotted her cousin, switching to the language of gremlins goblins. "Hey, Cody, I should of known I'd see you here. Are you nervous in any way? Everyone here is... well, many of them I think are duellists. Like, experienced ones. I'm not so worried about Lizzy, Youssuf, or Clair since they're firsties like us. But everyone else? We're so, so, dead."

Cash was taken the longest preparation to face the day. Today is the day that the green eyes show who they really are. So far, their whole life based on lies and the young Ironwoods thought it was no use hiding who they truly are. Cash could feel there was darkness inside them and thus they show it on today's assemble of clothing.

Dressed in almost black except the grey scarf that they wrapped around their neck, Cash took a deep breath. The inner dark storm within them threatened to come up. The outfit that they wore today, once upon a time it was one of their father's favorites and now it had been altered to fit Cash stature. The third year then tied their shoulder-length hair into a sleek back ponytail.

Once Cash deemed their outfits presentable, they took one last looked at the mirror that resides in their dorm. Wearing their father's clothing made their resemblance to their father more prominent each and every day. The slight difference was Cash is the younger female version of their father. "Alright, time to roll!"They said to themselves.

Grabbing their wand that rested on top of their bedside drawer, Cash begin their stride up to the Duelling Room. A few moments later, the young socialite arrived at the room, It seems Cash was not the first one that arrived at the place. There were three other people beside Delilah that already inside the room.

"Rory! you good, mate?"They asked the multicolor-haired girl. The last time they met Aurora was when both of them had that one unique hang-out time in Three Broomsticks a few months ago. Cash stood aside and slowly more people arrived at the scene. Once all the people gathered, the Beater listned to the rules that Delilah said.

They smile a bit when Delilah mentioned the prized. Cash was not signed up for this thing for the money but for the experience itself. Cash's green eyes bounced from one person to the next one. When their eyes landed on the small lice (Samantha), their lips curled up not into a smile but more into a dislike one.

The Cuban descendant looked at a girl who was talking to Samantha and when she finished Cash opened their mouth. "Ready to meet your creator, roach?"They make a mean snide comment towards the second-year duellist. Cash did not care if someone else saw them as a heartless person. They wanted to call Samantha by her rightful status - a Mudblood - but the occasion did not seem the right fit for it.

Once Delilah has done recited the rules and given the go signal, Cash walked up to Lucia and Henry. Both of them are duellists and Cash's friends. Cash still needs to make an effort to fixed the lost friendship between them and Lucia. "So,"Cash drawl out the last syllable. "What do you say the three of us forming a team together?"The Quidditch player suggests.

"Three heads are better than one, I say"They added. "How about we took them out one by one?,"They questioned the other two. "If the three of us are the last one standing, we will see how that goes when the time comes, agree?"They uttered, hoping Henry and Lucia were on board with their plan. This whole 'free for all and last man standing' thing seems a bit barbaric and bound to be chaotic.

The green eyes just hope they will be the last one that still stands. Let's the war, begin!

Henry was facing concerns and doubts with the following events fo3 the day. He found himself walking with Lucia Fox. The raven haired hufflepuff who he considered friend and a alley in remembering Alexa Mackenzie.

Lucia was the main reason why he joined the dueling event that day, when he heard that she did. He was a bit hesitant but thought the day could be fun and maybe serve as a chance for them to become better friends, he owed Alexa that.

Loki perched on his onwer's right shoulder as they entered the dueling room, Henry looked over toward Lucia as he spoke"how are you feeling?" His anxiety thundering over his head, a part of the teen wanted to flee. To run and hide, far from that room and the people within it.

Henry took a breath, focusing his mind when his feline nibbled his right eartip. The teen listened to Delilah explain the rules, nodding toward her. It was strange how often he seen the older year with things that inculded dueling, this day marks the third event for the two.

Henry looked over at Lucia as he spoke"there are twelve others, does it feel daunting or is that just me?" His gaze flickering from Lucia to the room filled with students when he caught Juniper's words, the teen nodded toward the young girl as he called"good luck, June," shown with a soft smile. The teen understood this is a duel where everyone is for themselves, a free for all sort of say but he still didn't want his friends to get hurt. He is loyal to a fault after all, often leading to downfalls.

"Good luck, Clair," Henry called over to the young ravenclaw before letting his gaze land on Lucia. Smiling softly. The teen whistled lightly, Loki obeyed his onwer by jumping from his shoulder and wandering over to Delilah Stewart who the orange feline sat besides.

"do you- uh maybe want to team-" Henry started to speak until he got cut off by Cash who approached them suggesting to team up. The teen offered a soft smile, a psrt of him glad that they suggested a team as he replied"sure, teaming up would help us better than going solo," casting a glance from Cash to Lucia as he continued"I'm in, uh Lucia?" The teen thought the three of them could be great as a team, three thurd years and two of them are duelists. They could gave each other's backs and aim for certain targets to decrease the numbers of the other participants faster.

Henry cast a gaze at the others, counting how many in each year and wondering which ones they would have to look out for. Four second years, five first years, one fourth year, and four third years. Besides the fourth year, there didn't seem to be anyone who they would have to look out for.

"What's our strategy?"

Henry asked his two teammates when his gaze met Cody Stevenson. A first year hufflepuff. A friend. The teen could only imagine how the first years might be targeted well first. Henry turned to Lucia and Cash as he asked"would you mind if another joined our team, mates?" Once Henry got the clearance from the two, he would call over to Cody.

"Hey, Cody! Over here!"

Once the hufflepuff first year would join the group, Henry would offer a soft smile as he spoke"do you want to join our team, mate?" Slipping his hands inside his jacekt pocket, the teen smiled softly as he was still a little worried with how this might turn out.

Clair was not a duelest, she was a broom racer, which was just dealing in the sky, while trying not to die from the track.
Yet she had come today to duel on the ground, yes, she had come to duel, to duel in something that seemed to be asking for someone to die, sounds like fun!
Well the prospect of danger, called Clair towards it, well not really Danger, Clair hoped that Delilah would stop everyone before someone died, but Still it sounded fun.
When she walked in she was surprised by the amount of people, there were at least 12 maybe 13 even.
She nodded to some of the others she knew, including, Henry Knight, Cody Stevenson, Juniper Kelly, Yousuf baid, and oh wow! Her Caption of brook racing; Aurora.
Ok, at the moment, if this was everyone. She knew almost everyone.
This was going to be a little awkward, But!
That would make it all the more fun!
The First year was very aware that there were a few Non-First years, well that would be hard! She looked at each person, attempting to find their weaknesses, then she heard Henry call good luck, "You too Henry!" She replied back, with a smile, they had had a unofficial duel against each other before, last time it had been Delilah and Clair together, Against Henry and Lea.

[font=century gothic]Ah, once again, Cody found himself inside the Dueling Club, a bright memory surfaced. But upon his entrance, he was greeted by Youssuf Baid, and he wished Baid good luck, but mentioned a little theater term. "Break A Leg Baid."

"Well, dear, i'm glad I don't see Draven Mirador here, otherwise I would..." Cody said to juniper, pausing to take a minute to consider his next words. "Love. Love him. Not disintegrate." His eyes darted back and forth as if he was paranoid about something, but he was unsure of what. Well, the boy probably knew, but he hardly thought about his actions.

But upon hearing the mention of the two being dead, Cody felt the need to speak out.
"EXCUSE ME JUNI? I SHALL NEVER LET YOU DIE!"
​He immediately hushed up when Cash was asking to be part of a team. Well, Cody decided to take matters into his own hand and join them. After all, in the muggle film, Hunger Games, fights are stronger with a team.

Well, Henry asked for Cody to join them. And perhaps out of interest in seeing how far he can go, Cody prepared himself for war. A war with a team verses the individuals. A mental note stuck in his head. "Don't hurt Juniper. Or all hell will break loose."


And of course, Cody was nodded at by Clair Fernandez[/font]

For this, Lucia blamed Briar entirely. If it wasn't for her encouragement / guilt tripping / whatever persuasive technique she'd used this time, Lucia would still be in the Hufflepuff dorms, peaceful and safe. Instead, she was in the duelling club, about to engage in a free-for-all duel with thirteen opponents. Was this madness, or just Hogwarts? Sometimes it was hard to differentiate between the two.

Lucia looked around when she heard @Henry Knight, whom she'd met up with to enter this event, speak. Did he mean in general, or specifically now? "Getting better," she ended up replying, and it was weirdly true. It had been a little over a month since Alexa's death, and Lucia was far from completely coming to terms with it, but she was getting there. At least she could now think the word death without tears welling up beneath her eyelids. (Usually.) "You?"

But the Slytherin boy didn't have time to reply, because @Delilah Stewart (that was her name, right?), the fifth-year who was running this event, began to talk, explaining the rules for this unique duel. And- and the prize. Five galleons. That wasn't a lot for some people, but Lucia could do a lot with five galleons. Not that she was likely to win anyway, not really. "It's not just you," she reassured Henry, who didn't look like he was very excited at the prospect of beginning the duel. Of course, Lucia could probably severely damage about a third of them just by screaming if she tried hard enough, but she didn't want to try hard enough. Quite apart from blasting open the secret of her heritage, after one time hurting someone with her scream, she wasn't in any hurry to do it again. She didn't want to let out that part of herself. (She'd never told Alexa about that scream. It had been a conversation she hadn't wanted to get into on the train ride home for Christmas, but now she wished she had.)

Brought back from her musings by @Casandra Ironwoods' suggestion and Henry's reply, Lucia nodded. "That sounds good," she agreed, tying up her long blue-black hair into a ponytail, her go-to hairstyle for duels. Henry soon invited a younger boy over, and Lucia nodded at @Cody Stevenson, a new member of the Hufflepuff duelling team and a participant in the unofficial duel which Lucia herself had moderated last term. "Hello." A muffled discussion of tactics took place between the four teammates before Delilah announced the start of the game.

Lizzy had signed up for the duelling show down almost immediately. The word duelling in particular had caught her eye. After the, um, humiliation she had received from Opeila and Dmitri, she had been trying to practice as much as she could for the next match. She would simply learn from her mistakes and move on.

This duel was perfect for practice, the thing was it was a free for all. There were no teams, and to make matters worse, there were many students from older years in the room. They were more experienced, but she also spotted a few fellow first years. The first years were probably going to go down first, including her, but they weren't a big threat to Lizzy as they had about the same knowledge and skill she did.

"No hard feelings, eh?" Youssuf said to her and Cody, startling her out of her thoughts that had more gone in the direction of strategy planning. Lizzy simply nodded at him, she wouldn't waste her breath trying to get into her opponent's heads this time. She had come here to duel and to duel is what she would do.
