Quidditch Match 2
All of the players darted about either to acquire something or obtain positions. It doesn't take long before Gryffindor score.
"Angelina Johnson scores!" Lee shouts through the mic. He goes to speak again but stops and tilts the speaker towards Stephanie.
"Ten points to Gryffindor!" She practically squeals.
"I told you!" Lee says over the crowd. "You're a natural."
"Thanks." Stephanie smiles.
"Harry's a Seeker, Fred and George are Beaters and Stephanie's commentating!" Chloe mumbles. "It feels kinda lame sitting on the side lines."
"Well, why don't you try out for the Quidditch Team once you're old enough." Jessica suggests.
"Yeah, I'm sure Fred, George and Harry will help you practice and Lee and Stephanie can tell you the ins and outs." Grace adds.
They all turned to look at Cedric who was watching the match intently. He flinched when he felt their gazes and hesitantly turned to look at them. "Yes?"
"You'll help, right?" Jessica grins.
"Y-yeah, sure." He agrees.
"Great!" Chloe says, clapping her hands in excitement. "This time, I'll out do my brother."
Everyone turned to watch just in time to see Harry narrowly dodge a bludger.
"Slytherin takes possession of the quaffle." Lee announces.
"Fletcher passes to Captain Marcus Flint." Stephanie continues.
Flint avoided many obstacles in his path and even kicked a Gryffindor away.
"Ugh." Stephanie groaned in disgust.
Just as Flint was about to gain a point, Oliver appeared just in time to smack it away. The group could only just make out his innocent expression.
Gryffindor gained possession of the quaffle and scored another point as the Slytherin Keeper was a little too late.
"Woo!" Everyone cheered from the stands.
"Another ten points to Gryffindor!" Lee shouts.
The Slytherin players started playing dirty more as they became desperate. Oliver intercepted a shoot from the Slytherin's and this in turn angered Flint, who grabbed a bat from his fellow team member and knocked Oliver out with a bludger.
"Boo!" The Gryffindor's shout as the Slytherin's laugh and smile.
Slytherin scored, gaining their first ten points.
Angelina Johnson was then boxed in and fell to the ground as result of the Slytherin's foul play.
Slytherin scored again as a Gryffindor member missed at the last moment. The score was 20:20.
The Golden Snitch made an appearance and caught Harry's attention, and he tailed it, dodging bludgers until his broom started acting funny.
"What's going on with Harry's broomstick?" Hagrid asks, everyone thinking the same.
Hermione looked through her binoculars and whispered, "It's Snape! He's jinxing the broom."
"Jinxing the broom?" Ron asks, looking at Harry who was being flung about. "What do we do?"
"Leave it to me." Hermione replies, as she began to walk off.
"Wait," Grace says, grabbing her arm and stopping her. "Let me come with you."
"No, it'll look too suspicious." Hermione states.
"What are you going to do?" Jessica questions.
"I'll think as I go." She says and walks off.
"That idiot." Grace mumbles.
"But she's a smart idiot." Chloe mocks.
"Still an idiot." She says, elbowing Chloe.
"Oh no!" Jessica gasps, and everyone followed her gaze. Harry was hanging from his broom after being thrown about so much.
"Harry!" Stephanie says in a small voice, worried for her brother. Lee put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
The Slytherin's all laughed.
"Come on, Hermione." Ron says, in a desperate tone.
"Lacarnum Inflamaray." Hermione whispers, pointing her wand at Snape's robes, setting them alight and running away.
The small fire created enough commotion that the spell broke and Harry managed to mount his broom.
"Go!" The Gryffindor's shout.
Harry and the Slytherin Seeker, Terrence Higgs, battled for the Snitch. The two followed the Snitch and were diving towards the ground, but Higgs pulled up. Harry pulled up at the last moment and stood on his broom. He reached out but toppled off his broom and gagged. Everyone watched to see the outcome.
"He's got the Snitch!" Stephanie cries. "My brother's got the snitch!"
"Harry Potter receives one hundred and fifty points for catching the Snitch!" Lee shouts.
"Gryffindor wins!" Madam Hootch announces, blowing her whistle.
The Gryffindor's cheered and the Slytherin's lost their smirks.
"We lost!" Grace cheers, and everyone about the small group look with a mixture of puzzlement and amusement.
Jessica sighed in relief and a smile made its way onto her face.
Cedric smiled, not looking at her but straight ahead and said, "You should smile more, it suits you."
