AyanEva:   
And there's still the question of how a bunch of kids can best a   bunch of fully grown evil wizards. A bit of bad writing, or maybe

If I remember correctly, the kids didn't actually "best" the evil wizards, but for the most part kept them at bay until, luckily, the members of the Order arrived and finished the fight.
