Chapter 10! Enjoy!
Two hours after breakfast, in the Quidditch field. Gryffindors were first up for the try-outs. Although only two were trying-out, Syaoran and Eriol, and for the role of keeper which was the only position left. Nobody else decided to try-out for the Gryffindors since they knew that both of the two were unmatchable forces when it came to brooms. Everyone in Hogwarts remembered that. It happened three days ago, which meant it was Thursday.
FLASHBACK
"Damned Hiiragizawa! Come back here!" Syaoran's angry voice shouted.
Eriol was being chased by Syaoran around Hogwarts, and they didn't seem the least tired. Eriol was running only to tease Syaoran even more. Eriol was holding a bag of rare chocolates, and of course, Syaoran owned that and it was his stash.
"Temper, temper, descendant!" Eriol said.
This just made Syaoran even more aggravated than he already was. Eriol ran even faster so as to mock his descendant even more, and Syaoran ran faster too. Soon they were in the Quidditch fields. Eriol summoned his broom and flew. Syaoran did the same and soon the whole school became attracted to the little show they were putting on. It included magic too. Syaoran trying to blast the broom to pieces, or trying to blast Eriol himself. Eriol was goofing with his magic, mocking Syaoran even more. It was quite funny really. Then they were doing nearly impossible moves on the broomsticks.
END OF FLASHBACK
"We'll test Eriol first." Harry said.
"Yes, captain." the Gryffindor Quidditch team, Eriol, and Syaoran said in a tone that said we-want-to-irritate-you.
Harry scowled. Eriol got his broom and flew. The three chasers followed him. Eriol went to his post, which was directly in front of the three hoops. The quaffle was released. The chasers were fast, but in the end, they never got any ball through. There was an applause that roared from the Gryffindor Quidditch team and the spectators but with the exception of the Slytherins, even Syaoran since he saw Slytherins and was backing up for the Gryffindor name. Eriol went down to the ground and bowed in front of his audience.
"Now it's Syaoran's turn." Harry said.
Syaoran flew rapidly to the hoops, surprising the chasers. The quaffle was released again. Syaoran was more aggressive than Eriol, his defends actually made the ball go to the other hoops on the other side of the field. No ball went through him. There were also an applauding audience that applauded him. He went down and bowed to them as if his audience were kings and queens, certainly dramatic.
"KAWAII DESCENDANT!" someone shouted from the audience.
Of course, everyone knew who that was, it was Eriol. And the whole broom chasing thing started again.
Thirty minutes later, the decision. In the current Gryffindor team, there was one player who was called out of the team because of bad grades, and she was a chaser, so that meant that Eriol and Syaoran would both get a position in the team.
"We've made a decision. Eriol will be keeper while Syaoran will be chaser." Harry shouted.
It was fair. Eriol being the better blocker than Syaoran, and Syaoran being the faster and more aggressive of the two. It would be good for their team. Syaoran and Eriol did high-fives, which surprised most of the student population that were watching the Quidditch try-outs
Next up was the Quidditch Hufflepuff try-outs. Sakura and other students were all trying-out for two positions, seeker and chaser.
"Sakura!" the Hufflepuff Quidditch team captain said.
Sakura clutched her broom tightly and flew.
"We'll try you out first for the chaser spot since you seem to like that one a lot." the Hufflepuff Quidditch team captain said.
Sakura nodded. Soon two other students appeared beside her and there was a keeper. The quaffle was released, Sakura got the quaffle and started passing it to the two other students. They began to form a formation, and they soon approached the keeper who looked one of those you-won't-pass-through-me-over-my-dead-body people. Sakura had the quaffle in hand and proceeded to approach the keeper, and when she was near him, she passed it to another chaser who managed to pass it through the hoops.
"Good job, Sakura!" the team captain said.
The audience roared for Sakura. Sakura blushed slightly and smiled.
"KAWAII!" Tomoyo shouted.
Sakura sweat-dropped, and so did some other students.
The team captain made them do another round again, just to make sure it wasn't just because of luck that Sakura managed to do all those things she did.
At the end of the round, the team captain was beaming, she had found a good chaser, but Sakura also had the potential to become a great seeker, so the team captain tested her in being a seeker, where she had to find the snitch.
"It's so fast and small." Sakura said to herself.
"You can do it Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo shouted.
"Go Sakura!" Hermione, Harry, and Ron shouted.
Then, at the side of her eyes, Sakura saw Syaoran walking away, with Eriol behind him. She felt a bit disappointed that he wasn't going to watch her. Maybe he didn't like her at all. Then she noticed the snitch and grabbed it. She went down to the ground where the people applauded her.
The rest of the Hufflepuff try-outs continued, and Sakura became the seeker. Although she seemed a bit down, and only Tomoyo noticed this.
I wonder... she's a seeker now, so why should she be sad about that..., Tomoyo thought.
Then she looked around, Syaoran was no where to be found, but Eriol had come back to hear all about Sakura being a seeker.
Sakura-chan's really in love with Syaoran-kun. I wonder where he is. That really must've been a blow for Sakura-chan, not seeing him while she was trying-out, Tomoyo thought sadly.
She looked at Sakura who looked really depressed. That was one of the bad effects of love. Tomoyo sighed, Sakura deserved to be happy in this moment. Now where Syaoran was, that was a question only Eriol could answer.
Next was the Ravenclaw Quidditch try-outs. Tomoyo went down to where the people who were going to try-out were supposed to be. She was holding to her broomstick firmly. She had the determined look with her, and her aura blazed to show that she was ready and was sure to get the job done. She showed herself as a responsible person who wasn't going to let down her teammates, and the Ravenclaw team captain liked that.
"She's just like you, Cho Chang." the team captain said.
"I think she's better, captain." Cho Chang smiled.
Harry blushed when he saw Cho Chang smile, and this, his friends saw and started chuckling mentally. Eriol, seeing this, unlike the others, gave a different reaction, but a familiar reaction, his smile.
"Tomoyo!" the team captain shouted.
Tomoyo stepped up, her determined face still with her. She clutched her broomstick and off she went. Two other students were with her. There was a keeper on the goal hoops. Tomoyo and the two other students rapidly passed the quaffle to each other, and when they reached the hoops, Tomoyo dodged the keeper and quickly passed the quaffle into the hoops. A roar of applause appeared from the students. Tomoyo beamed. She saw Eriol smiling at her, and that caused her to blush. Even if he was her boyfriend, he still managed to do that to her.
After all the people who tried-out for Ravenclaw, the team captain and the Ravenclaw Quidditch team had made their decision for the positions. And Tomoyo was made into a chaser.
