Lexi walked into The Broken Wand, exploring the small town just outside of the school grounds. It was her first time outside of the school, and as she heard that this was one of the more popular places to meet people, she wandered inside.
The light was dimmed and reflected off the tables, which were shining, in contrast to the floor, which was covered in a thin layer of dirt. Maneuvering her way between the scattered tables, she slipped into a seat at the bar, ordering a butterbeer and scanning the pub.

Brandon strolled into the pub, grinning when he saw Summers.
"well well well," he said. "Looks like I have a chance to finish what I started." HE held out his wand, ready.

Lexi looked around, groaning as her gaze fell upon Brandon. "Finish what you started? If I remember correctly, you were the one who ended up in the Infirmary, no?" Rolling her eyes and ignoring his ready wand, she turned her attention back to the bar, where she took a long sip of her butterbeer.

Brandon sighed. "Yes, i have made a miscalculation. You everards aren't as weak as I had thought. But don't worry, today, you'll be the one in the infirmary." He raised his wand, and shouted the Reductor Curse, shooting a blast that chopped her left leg off. He grinned in triumph.

Lexi screamed at the unprovoked attack, falling cleanly off her bar stool as she gripped the air, the spot where her leg had once been. A bleeding stump lay in its place, and a pool of blood was starting to form around her. CLosing her eyes in attempts to steady her breathing, she pulled her wand out of her pocket.
"W-wingardium leviosa!" she screamed, pointing her wand at the nearest bar stool. She directed it fiercely at the boy, and at lightning speed, the stool had hit him squarely in the face.

"Conjunctivitis!" Came from behind surprising them both. Brandon clutched his eyes, for Maggie's spell damaged his eyesight. "Expelliarmus!" she added, disarming Brandon. Finally, without use of any spell, Maggie kicked Brandon below the waist. Hurrying to Lexi, her eyes widened. "Oh my god .." She wasn't sure of what to do.

"O-oh, because that's helpful..." Lexi muttered sarcastically, smiling weakly up at the girl, though it came out as a sort of pained grimace. No matter; it was not the time for worrying about how her smile looked, considering her lack of left leg.
Slowly, she felt herself losing consciousness, slipping away from reality, from the pub and the people in it. Probably from the lack of blood, which she was now swimming in, as it had seeped around her body and created a pool. She gripped her fallen barstool, her knuckles a qhostly white, as she struggled to keep herself from passing out.

Brandon fell backwards, on the floor withering in pain. After a few moments, he recovered and limped over to where he thought the everards were. He groped for his wand, unable to see well, and at last found it. Using Perficulous Totalus, he body-binded Maggie and made for an escape

Though the room was blurred and slowly dimming, Lexi saw the faint outline of Brandon trying to make his escape. He can't get away with this, not when she was so helpless, lying here, possibly bleeding to death. Her fingers clasped onto her wand, the other hand still gripping the bar stool with all of her might.
"Petrificus Totalis!" she called, her voice barely above a whisper, pointing her shaking wand at the boy. But whether it had worked or not, she wouldn't know. At that moment, the pub grew black, and she fell into unconsciousness.

Brandon felt a strange sensation running down his body. Lexi's spell, due to her condition, was very weak, and her aim was a hair off. For that reason, Brandon could not figure out why he felt the way he did. Suddently, his left arm fell limp at his side. Startled by this magic, he tried to make a mistake, but his right leg collapsed from under him. He instantly realized what had happened. Lexi's spell was weak, so instead of the full on bind, each part of his body was binding at a different time. With only his head, his right arm, and his left leg, he knew he didn't have much time. He struggled to cast finite incantum (sp) on himself, but his wand was just out of reach.
He crawled to the location of his wand, but once it was near his grasp, his right arm fell numb. He looked at the other customers in the pub and wondered why they didn't do anything. It was like they were manicans.
Brandon had a sudden thought. If he could grasp his wand in his foot, he may be able to cast a low level spell. He swung his foot as fast as he could to his wand and grabbed it between his toes. Instantly, his leg became limp.
He mustered all of the magic within his body. Concentrating immensly on this last spell, he muttered finite incantum with all his strength. Unfortunately for him, he only managed to cast "finite inca" before lexi's spell reached full affect. He succumbed to the jinx, not sure what effects his unfinished spell might bring.

The bar keeper rushed to Maggie and Lexi, freeing Maggie from her bind, and helping Lexi. Maggie saw Lexi's jinx fly toward Brandon, but she couldn't she. A crowd of people surrounded her and Lexi, and her wide eyes returned to the state of her poor friend. The bar keeper managed to bandage her leg back together, but they needed to get to the infirmary. Shaking, Maggie rushed back to the castle with her friend and the barkeeper, leaving the bar with the people discussing what just happened in hushed tones.

Alex randomly walked into the Broken wand. Seeing a bit of a mess he instantly knew something was wrong. He walked over to the bar keeper and was about to ask what was going on when he saw a guy on the floor near a wand...looking helpless. He rushed to him, "Hey, man...are you alright?" He asked starting to pick him up.
