There weren't any major repercussions from their prank on Justin Hammer, but Snape was a lot harder on grading their essays and judging the potions they made in class. Luckily Tony was in his house, because Snape would have taken a bunch of points away and probably given him detention when he managed to melt his fourteenth cauldron two days after the prank.
"So who are you betting on?" Maria asked her other third years as they were working on class work in the library.
"Last game of the year, Gryffindor versus Ravenclaw, it's going to be a good one." Melinda said.
"Oliver Queen against Felicity Smoak in the final game of their school careers, I can't wait." Jasper said.
"Carol has been pushing us, she really wants the trophy this year, since it's her last year here." Maria said.
"It's definitely going to be a great game to watch, I'm glad I'm not playing." Phil said.
"Just sit in the stands with Nick and cheer us on." Melinda said.
"We will, because my bet is on Ravenclaw to take the trophy this year." Phil said.
"You bet we will." Maria said with conviction.

"Do I have to be here?" Bruce asked.
"Of course, it's your house playing for the win." Tony said.
"Helen and Jane are back inside studying."
"Don't be so sure of that." Clint spoke up from next to them. He nodded in the direction of the before mentioned girls who were linked arm in arm with Laura and Pepper and coming their way.
"I don't believe it." Bruce said, resigning himself to watching the game.
"Magic." Clint said with a grin.
"Nah, Pepper is a force to be reckoned with." Jane said as they joined the guys.
"There's Hooch." Tony said as they turned their attention to the pitch.
"And here come the teams." Clint said.
They cheered as the Ravenclaws mounted their brooms and took to the air, circling the pitch before lining up in formation on their half of the field.
Steve and the other scarlet and gold clad people cheered and stomped as their team took their positions.
Everyone waited as Madam Hooch released the balls and tossed the quaffle up. Oliver took possession of the ball and took off toward the far goal posts. When Victoria and Melinda flew up on either side of him, he let his mouth twitch into a quick smile before dropping the ball, even as he continued flying to the goal.
"Go Peggy!" Steve yelled as Peggy caught the ball and made her way to the goal post and took her shot.
They groaned as Dig caught the ball and threw it to Ray.
Jason Todd, who was commenting on the match, could hardly keep up with the play by plays as the quaffle was tossed around quickly and the beaters were trying their hardest to knock the other team's players off their brooms.
The first goal was scored by Oliver against Andrew, the Gryffindors went nuts in the stands.
An hour and a half later and the game was still being played. Thea and Felicity were both circling the pitch looking for a glint of gold, but so far it hadn't been spotted. It was 360 to 380, Gryffindor in the lead, when the snitch finally made an appearance. Thea and Felicity both flew after the speck of gold as it dipped and turned through the players, still fighting for possession of the quaffle.
Thea almost had it in hand, when a buldger came careening toward her thanks to Maria. Felicity pulled up with snitch in hand and the crowd went wild.
It was a mass of blue and silver that greeted the team when they touched down. Everyone was screaming and ginning and all of them wanted to pat the team on the back.
"Great job!" Dig said, touching down next to his friend.
"We won the cup!" Felicity yelled.
"You deserve it." He grinned at her.

"You did a good job out there today." Fury told Maria and Melinda.
"Thanks."
"Next year won't be so easy." He said as he turned and walked away.
"He thought that was easy?" Melinda staged whispered to Andrew.
"I think he means he won't go down without a fight next year, what with it being his last year and all."
"Come on guys, let's join our party." Maria said turning toward the castle.
….
….
"I'm definitely going out for the team next year." Sam said.
"Me too." Bucky agreed.
"You should try out too." Peggy said to Steve.
"I'm not any good at sports."
"Nonsense." She said.
"I'd rather watch." He said.
"Suit yourself, but there are going to be three openings for next year's team and I think you'd make a good addition." She said.
….
….
We didn't even play today, why are we celebrating?" Clint asked Phil.
"Because it was a good match." Phil shrugged.
At Clint's look he continued, "It's a good excuse as any to relax before the pressure of exams set in."
"That I buy." Clint grinned, as they watched Janet flick her wand and change Barry's hair color which made Scott break down laughing.
They all shared a laugh as Barry tried to figure out why he suddenly became the focal point of the room.
