Ashley frantically flailed around for a bit before she reached for pocket, cursing when she came up with nothing. She really ought to have tied that blasted wand to her wrist. Not that she desperately needed it, but she wasn’t as well-versed with wandless magic as much as she would have liked. Not enough to survive a full-on duel with Barty, at least. Ashley noted for future use that she had to work on her dueling skills since they were crucial to her endeavors. Lockhart’s Duelling Club was, as expected, completely and utterly useless. Sirius and Remus would definitely be more helpful.
