Lions in the Air

Swooping through the air, Katie caught the scarlet sphere skilfully. Shooting a smile somewhere in Angelina's general direction, she swung her broom upward and shot towards the sky.

Swerving sharply to avoid the Bludger that was sent hurtling straight for her, she spun on a silver dime and sped down the length of the pitch, feeling a sense of freedom as her shining curls streamed out behind her.

The stands were only feet away from her. Spinning more rapidly than even she had ever dreamed of, she launched the Quaffle with all her strength…sending it sailing straight through the Slytherin centre hoop.
