A couple of weeks after Ed, Al and Ron started late night practice, they were returning to the common room and ran into Harry who had another detention with Umbrige.
"Hi guys what are you doing up so late?" Harry asked them.
"Oh nothing." Ron said nervously, giving them away. Not to mention he dropped the broom causing Al to jump in and save them.
"Ron needed some help practicing for the Quittage team and we said we would help. And the reason he didn't ask you is he was too embarrassed. For who knows why?"
Harry just laughed and told Ron not to be embarrassed and told them he wanted to help starting tomorrow which was a Saturday.
That morning they headed out to the pitch. While they practiced Harry had to admit Ron was a good keeper, and Ed was an outstanding chaser. (The reason why Ed's so good is his mom played from her third year to her seventh. Yes as stated in chapter 4 Trisha was a witch. If fact she and Lily Evens* were very close until Trisha met Hohenheim** (Who happened to teach at Hogwarts but quit not long after teaching Tom Riddle) and left for Amesist***. Just thought I should mention that, or things could get very confusing.)
After a few weeks of regular training for the boys the Quittage try out came a round. Al decided he didn't want to try out for the team, he said he just didn't have an interest in it. Ed on the other hand loved to fly, for once he felt weightless and free no longer being held down by his automail.
The day of the try outs Ron was a nervous wreck. He was panicky and pale, and it only made it worse when he looked at the people in the stands. Unlike Ron Ed was very upbeat and happy.
Ron did fairly well, and Ed was practically perfect.
Not long after try outs were over the list was posted in the common room.
Seeker: Harry Potter
Chasers: Angelina Johnson, Katie Bell, Edward Elric
Beaters: Fred and George Wesley
Keeper: Ron Wesley
"Yes!" Ron cheered.
"I knew you two would make." Harry told them
"Sweet." Ed said with a smile.
"Well looks likes the first practice is next Friday, the day before the first Hogsmeade trip."
Later that day Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ed, Winry, Sora, and Kairi were in the library they were all talking about the same thing. Umbrige.
"I know of a way we could get rid of her!" Ed said thinking of Kimbly "I know this guy who likes too blow people up! No really he loves it!"
"That's horrible!" Hermione said putting her hands to her mouth.
"No Ed, he's a creep!" Winry said putting down her new automail design.
"Fine. But maybe Mustang would-"
"Edward Elric!" Winry cut him off
"Fine your right, sorry."
"I don't think we need to get rid of Umbrige we just need a better teacher." Hermione said looking at all of them.
"Well how are we going to get a better teacher with Umbrige around especially now that's she High Inquisitor?" Kairi questioned
"What?" Everyone but Sora asked.
"Yep it was in the Daily Prophet this morning." Sora told them.
"Crap." Ed said
"Well back to the problem at hand we need an education and Umbrige isn't going to teach us anything." Hermione said.
"We would probably be better off if Harry was teaching us." Ron said sarcastically
"Wait Ron you're a genius!" Hermione said getting up.
"I am? Oh I am! Wait why am I a genius?"
"Harry you could teach us!"
"What? No I couldn't. Who would want to learn from me any way? I'm a nut remember?"
"Harry not everyone thinks you're a nut." Winry said "Actually a lot of people think he's back."
"Really?" Harry asked
"Yes now Harry if you say you'll do it let us worry about the rest." Hermione said getting up
"Fine I'll do it."
The day after the first Quittage practice (Which in Angelina's (The captain) opinion went great besides Ron's nerves) The Hogsmeade trip came round. While Harry, Ron and Hermione walked down they talked about what was about to happen.
"Um Hermione how many people are coming?" Harry asked
"Oh just a few people." she answered. They walked to the Hogshead. When they walked in only a bartender and a witch with a vale in her face were there. After all the students came in Harry was shocked. There was well over a few. Besides Ed, Al, Winry, Sora, Kairi, and Riku there was Ginny, Fred, George, Luna, Neville, Lee Jordan, Ernie McMillan, Terry Boot, Susan Bones, Colin and Denis Crevey, Cho and her friend Marietta. Just too name a few.
"A few Hermione? A few!"
"Well…."
After everyone was settled Hermione started.
"As you all know we need a teacher a proper one." She went on for few more moments until Ernie McMillan piped in.
"Why do we need one?"
"Cause You-know-who's back!" Ron told him
"Says who?"
"Dumbledore."
"Dumbledore says because he says" He said pointing at Harry. This argument went on for a bit. Then the subject was changed. People named things Harry did. Harry told them it was luck. Then everyone was to sign a sheet.
Ed signed it first, followed by Al and Winry. After they got back they headed up to the common room.
When it got late only 9 people remained. Well you can figure it out whom.
"So where are we going to have the lessons?" Al asked
"Shrieking Shack?" Ron asked
"Not enough room." Harry answered
"Then where?" Kairi asked
"Don't know yet. But I'll figure it out." Harry said
"Brother do you have any ideas?" Al asked. But there was no answer. Al looked over at him and he was asleep. He was sitting back with his feet up, and Winry also asleep leaning on him. Ed's arm was around her and her arms were on his chest.
"Oh there so cute together!" Hermione said motioning to them.
"Well it's about damn time." Al told them.
"Isn't that what you said when we saw them kiss in the summer?" Hermione asked
"Yeah but it's true."
"You guys saw them kiss?" Kairi asked
"Yes we did. But I think it was just left over emotion after what happened right before it but either way they really like each other." Hermione told her.
"That's an understatement. Well come on lets go to bed and leave the love birds alone." Al said getting up. This comment eared some laughs. And in the next ten minutes everyone but Ed and Winry went upstairs to bed. I just can't to see their reactions.
* Harry's mom just in case you don't know
