Lavender breathed out softly once that tense moment was gone and Nicodemus had walked away from Cormac. She wasn’t sure what the look from Cormac was about? It was like he was waiting for her to say something to him? There was nothing she could say to him at this point that the demon wouldn’t hear. He knew the drill, what they discussed or she hoped he did?
Taking in a deep breath she slowly followed the two into the back room. She was now having second thoughts about this. Nicodemus was strong and she wasn’t feeling very confident right now in her ability to exorcise him. It was really now or never though and she’d push herself forward to do it. Her hand reached into her bag to slip her wand into her back pocket. They had to be ready now to take him down. She wondered if now would be a good time and take him by surprise? If they waited, it might be harder?
On gut feeling alone, she whipped out her wand and shouted, “Petrificus Totalus!”, pointing her wand to the back of Nicodemus. The Body-Bind Curse seemed to be the best for this situation as she needed the victim remaining conscious and aware.
