"Water, rise," Carol whispered right as she took a step to the back to stabilize her position.
The girl brought her hands down with her palms directly facing the ground. And then, she started to slowly raise her hands up.
And following her gesture, the blood on the ground dried out, letting out all the water contained inside. Then, the ground itself dried out, deprived of the water that the girl stole.
Finishing her spell took Carol only about ten seconds, by the end of which a huge pillow-sized ball of water floated in the air, right at the same level as the girl's hands.
"Water, burst forth!" the girl then whispered her second order, raising her palms so that their bottom would face the direction she wanted the water to go.
And just like one could expect from the words she used to mark her spells, the water contained within the massive bubble rushed forth as if someone attached a hose to it and ramped up the pressure to maximum.
