DevilishPixelation1006: Really? Huh.
YAYSOLANGELO: Um, ok, just um, try to be a bit less intense. I get you're a child of Nike, but, um, I'll throw out my Nike's if you keep being intense? Probably not. I don't care about shoes and brands, but they're the only shoes I have that fit.
Mika1303: Thank you!
InsertRandom: Thanks!
Reviews are being weird. I can see new ones, but it still takes a but for them to actually show up.
Percy
"What?"
Angelina rolled her eyes. "I've seen you with a sword. A beater's bat isn't that different."
They were at the Gryffindor table at breakfast when Angelina asked if Percy would be a beater, with Fred and George being gone and all.
He shrugged nervously. Flying? "Um, I don't know, flying isn't really my thing."
"Come on. Jack Sloper isn't the best, and I think you would be a good beater with how good you use a sword.
"Um … "
"Come on, what's the worst that can happen?"
Well Zeus could strike me out of the sky, he thought, but he didn't really have any other reason not to, and didn't want to look suspicious. He sighed. "Alright, I guess."
She smiled. "Great."
She left and Harry looked at Percy for a bit. "You know, you probably would make a good beater."
"Maybe, but I just realized that I have to come to the practices now." That wouldn't let him meet Hermione at the lake as much.
"Well," Ron said, "there's a practice this evening, do you'll have to get your uniform before then."
"Ah." Percy said. "I guess I do."
"Just promise you won't get Quidditch crazy like these two," Hermione said, gesturing to Harry and Ron.
"Don't worry, I won't."
~wee, Quidditch~
He walked out onto the field wearing Fred's old robes. The rest of the team were waiting.
"Everyone," Angelina said, gesturing to Percy, "this is Percy Jackson, the new beater. I know he wasn't at tryouts, but I have a good feeling about him."
Jack Sloper grinned and tossed him a bat and a broom. He realized he would have to get a broom of his own if he got in. Did Chiron mention a bank account? He thought he did, but he didn't remember. He wasn't really paying attention to the details, and was more flicking his wand around.
"Okay, Percy, you mount your broom with your bat, and we'll let a bludger loose," Angelina said, opening a box Percy just realized was there. He looked in there and saw the balls used for the game.
Harry walked over and told him how to get on the broom, and everyone started looking nervous. The kid Angelina had a good feeling about didn't know how to ride a broom? She was obviously on something.
He flew up in the air and waited for thunder and to be fried to a crisp, but nothing happened. He heard thunder, but it was very far away. He sighed. He wasn't dead. Either that, or Zeus was waiting for him to get higher.
"Ready?" Angelina said. He nodded, and she let the bludger lose. It flew straight past the others and was flying towards Percy at breakneck speed. Percy then realized Oh hey. This can break my nose, he then decided he didn't want a broken nose. He closed his eyes and swung at it with all his might.
There was silence. Was he dead? Did it knock him out? He tried opening his eyes and whaddya know? They opened. He looked around. No bludger. He looked down. They were staring at him in stunned silence. Angelina grinned. "That was brilliant, Percy!"
Then the bludger came back from behind the field. He hit it downwards and wound up making a small crater. Harry tackled it and put it back in the box.
Then they practiced as a team. Harry was faster than Percy had ever seen him, Angelina, Alicia, and Katie were passing the red ball around like it was nothing, Jack was fairly good at hitting the bludger around, and Ron was good too. He was just nervous around other people.
They had a pretty good team. At least, that's what he hoped. He didn't know too much about the game.
Yay, I worked hard on my room and got some time on my tablet. Also, wee, 30 chapters! Whoo! I read a fanfic today not unlike this one. I forgot what it was called, but Percy was a chaser. Then I thought Oh hey, Harry wasn't given the ban in this, and neither were Fred and George. They just left, and Percy would actually make a good beater. Why not? I also read the story, and found some details that contradict this. Ignore them. I need to fix them.
Autocorrect adventure!
Cool font type o read more than any of the Phoenix lights on the floor of the Phoenix house elf house elf and the girl Harry was always gawking at the Gryffindor common room together with the sword of Gryffindor Tower and the girl Harry was always gawking at the uh oh, it's gonna loop again.
Please remember to review and have a nice day.
