Chapter 10: Gryffindor Vs. Ravenclaw
A Weasley twin hit a bludger towards Chanse. She smacked it back, with her right arm, and the glove slipped halfway off her arm, and the bludger went spinning off in a random direction.
"Oh the new keeper for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, is seeming to have some troubles." Lee Jordan smirked, on the megaphone.
Chanse grabbed the glove and slipped it back on, then she looked up and saw a ball coming right for her, she quickly hit it with her broomstick. She took a deep breath in, then she looked down at the glove.
"What are you doing, Chanse?" Chanse looked up and saw Roger in her face, "What happened to the Chanse from the challenge?" he nudged her and flew off.
Chanse sighed, and a angry face grew onto hers. She thought, "Cause of this damn glove, I can't play right." She quickly unclasped the second clasp, and quickly took the glove off and looked at it. Then she slid it on the back of her broom.
The crowd gasped and began to whisper, and Chanse looked at all of them. Then she looked down at her arm, as she rolled her wrist.
"Chanse!" Cho screamed back at her.
Chanse didn't lift her head; she just lifted her eyes up, and hit the bludger as hard as she could, with her right arm.
The bludger went flying back at one of the Weasley twins. He ducked quickly and then looked back up at Chanse with fear.
The crowd whispered, "How could she hit the bludger without a pad?" Then they looked up at Chanse, and broke into a roar of cheers.
She unclasped the other clasps on her left arm, pulled her other glove off the back of her broom, and picked up the two gloves and through them down.
The crowd gasped, again.
She moved her fingers and rolled wrists around, some more, then sharply looked up at the Gryffindor team, "Let's do this."
Everyone looked at each other trying to figure out what she was doing.
Oliver looked at Chanse, "What is she doing?" he thought, as he gazed at Chanse on the other side of the field.
*DING*
A ball went through Oliver's goal.
Oliver quickly looked at the goal the ball had gone through. Then he looked up at Chanse, who was giggling at him. "TIME OUT!" Oliver screamed.
Madam Hooch blew her whistle and the teams gathered up.
"Chanse...what are you doing?" Roger said.
"The clasp was broken on one of my gloves." Chanse shrieked, "Anyways I play better without them," Chanse smiled, Cho nudged her and laughed. "You saw me, Roger, you saw me kick Stewart's ass, and I wasn't even wearing any of this padding. If I can do that, I can do it, and you know it." Chanse looked around at the team, "All of you know I can." Roger looked at Chanse then nodded.
"BREAK!" The Ravenclaw team took back their positions and then a few minutes later Gryffindor took theirs.
Madam Hooch blew the whistle again and the game continued.
The game became more intense. Another goal was scored on Oliver, then one on Chanse, then another. Then Oliver was scored on. No one knew who was going to win.
Chanse had a couple of seconds to look at Cho, who was right on the trail of the golden snitch, and Harry Potter was right behind her. Cho pushed her broomstick forward, and it went faster.
Chanse realized that if Cho got to the edge of her broom and jumped she could either miss the stitch, or she could take a chance and grab it. "Cho, go to the edge and jump!" Chanse screamed.
Roger stopped and quickly looked at Chanse and shook his head no. "Don't do it Cho!" Roger screamed.
Cho kept her concentration on the snitch and followed it down to the ground; the whole time she was flying she was trying to figure out who she should listen to.
"Trust me, Cho. Do it!" Cho looked back for a split second at Chanse who hit the ball, away from the lower goal, and towards Roger who caught it, and then she nodded to Cho. "You can do it Cho." Chanse thought.
"No Cho, don't!" Roger screamed and through the ball at Oliver's middle goal, Oliver hit it to Angelina, and then looked down at Cho.
"What's she thinking?"
Cho shook her head, and nodded. She had decided who she was going to listen to...she scooted to the edge of her broomstick.
"No Cho!" Roger screamed.
"Go for it Cho, it's your moment to shine!" Cho jumped...
"NOOOOOOO!" Roger screamed. Everyone gasped as they watched Cho jump and fall to the ground and roll; when she stopped rolling she was face down on the ground, and not moving.
Roger looked back at Chanse with anger filling his eyes, but all Chanse did was smile and laugh.
Roger flew quickly down a few feet away from Cho.
Chanse landed her broomstick on the ground, and began to jog over to Cho.
"Open goal," One of the Gryffindor boys yelled, and scored a point.
The goal didn't even bother Chanse; she didn't even listen to her fellow teammates scream at her to get back to the goal.
She walked toward Cho, who was still lying face down on the ground.
Just before Roger reached Cho, Cho stood up, and shook her head and wiped off her uniform.
Chanse dropped her broomstick and ran to Cho.
Another goal was scored on Ravenclaw. Roger ran over to Cho, "Are you ok?" Cho nodded, "What were you thinking, why didn't you listen to me?"
Cho slowly opened up her hands and in them the golden stitch laid.
Roger eyes grew very large, and Cho handed Roger the stitch and ran over to Chanse, who hugged her. Roger held the stitch up in the air, and the stadium blew up with hoots and hollers.
Madam Hooch blew the whistle. "Ravenclaw wins!" she yelled. Chanse stopped hugging Cho and looked at Roger, who was walking over to her.
"Sorry I doubted you. That was a good call on your part...Sorry." He weakly smiled. Chanse smiled and quickly grabbed him and gave him a huge hug. While she was hugging him, she looked up at Oliver who was watching her. Oliver smiled at her, and began to land.
She let go of Roger and he grabbed her hand and placed the golden stitch in her hand. She held in high, and proud, in the air, and just smiled at the crowd.
The whole Ravenclaw team landed, and join together in the middle of the field, with Chanse in the middle of the group, and they all hugged and jumped up and down screaming, "Ravenclaw! Ravenclaw!"
The Gryffindor team landed and walked over to the Ravenclaw team, and congratulated them.
After they were done all saying, "Good game."
"Get out your best outfits, because, yes folks, the Yule Ball has finally come." Everyone cheered again, and slowly filed out of the stadium.
They all started to go back to their shower rooms, when Oliver grabbed Chanse arm, and made her eyes cringed. She turned around and walked up in Oliver's face, "I told you I'd win. And we won all on a chance." She smirked, and all Oliver did was smile and look down at the ground, and shake his head. Chanse turned back around and went to hit the showers.
Chanse walked into the Ravenclaw Girls dressing rooms, and took a nice, long, hot shower, and got dressed into her robe. Then she walked out of the dressing groom back towards the Ravenclaw house to get her books, "Nice game." Chanse turned around, and saw Oliver waiting outside the dressing room. She looked down at the ground, then smiled, and walked to him.
"Not half bad yourself."
"How your arms?" Chanse looked down at her arms, and rubbed them, because they were all red, and starting to bruise.
"They've seen better days, but they're ok." Oliver put his arm around Chanse, and pulled her close.
"Don't forget to meet me in front of the Great Hall, because I'm your tour guide." He nudged Chanse. She smiled at him, nodded, and she put her arm around him.
Once they were at the front stair they went their separate ways, to go get ready for classes. Chanse started up the stairs and then a voice yelled to her, "Chanse, wait up!" She turned around and saw Cho yelling at her. She stopped and waited for Cho, and they walked up the stairs together.
Once upstairs Chanse and Cho walked inside the Ravenclaw house and saw the entire Ravenclaw house, standing around waiting for them to come in. The house started to clap for them; they looked at each other, and blushed. They both put their arms on top of each other and walked up to their room.
Once upstairs Chanse collected all her books, and left to meet Oliver. When she was at the door Cho asked, "Do you have a thing for Oliver Wood? Because you know he's hot, all the girls in Hogwarts want him, or have wanted him at one time! And I think he has a thing for you!" Chanse turned around.
"No I don't. Do you really think he has a thing for me?" Cho smiled an evil smile and nodded. Chanse shook her head and walked out of the room. Cho turned to say something to Chanse but she had already left.
She left the house, and walked down the stairs, to wait for Oliver. A few seconds later, Oliver came running down the stairs, and stopped next to Chanse. "Sorry."
"It's ok. I haven't been waiting long."
"Ok, what's our first class?" Oliver pulled out his schedule and looked it over, "Oh, History of Magic, with Professor Binns. You know, he's the only ghost teacher in Hogwarts." Chanse raised an eyebrow, smiled, and they walked off to their class.
The day went on and Oliver showed Chanse all her classes, and when it came time for lunch Chanse walked in by herself, and sat down next to Cho, "Where's Oliver?" she nudged with a smile.
"Around, I guess. I mean I know how to get to the Great Hall." Chanse smiled as she put a little Bouillabaisse, a shellfish stew, on her plate, and began to eat.
"MAIL!" Some kid from Hufflepuff house yelled.
Chanse stopped eating and looked up and saw all theses different owls flying around dropping present and letters, left and right. Chanse looked around to see if an owl would drop her something.
All the owls cleared the room, and Chanse looked down into her stew and in it was a reflection of an owl still flying around in the Great Hall. Chanse looked up and the owl began to swoop down. Chanse opened her hands, and the owl dropped five letters into her hands.
"Wow, that's a lot of letters." Cho said, Chanse looked up from them and smiled and nodded.
Chanse looked through who had sent them: Mom and Dad, Eve, Nikki, Milo, and Unknown. Chanse picked up the unknown letter and set down the rest of them. She tore open the envelope and slid the letter out:
Dear Chanse
You don't know me but I wanted to warn you about your new friend..."
Chanse looked around at all her friends, then she looked to see if anyone was watching her read it, but no one was she turned back to the letter and read on, "...Oliver Wood.
I know, you know, that all the girls have wanted Oliver or still do. But you, you didn't want him, and hopefully you still don't. Oliver uses girls to get some off of, and if he can't get any, he dumps them, and moves to the next girl."
Chanse looked up from her letter and looked over at Oliver who was chatting away with Angelina, and then he looked over at Chanse, and winked. Chanse slightly smiled, and turned back to the letter.
"Unfortunately, I found that out the hard way. If you get out now, and stay away from him, you can still save yourself. Please Chanse...Please, for my sake and more importantly, your sake.
Signed,
Blaise Zabini.
Chanse stuffed that letter into her purse and then turned to Cho, "Whose Blaise Zabini?" Cho looked up at Chanse.
"Why?"
"Because she wrote me this letter telling me to..."
"Stay away from Oliver? Yeah stay away from her. She's that girl over there at the Slytherin table." Cho pointed to a tall, skinny, long black haired, girl talking to a young slicked back blonde boy.
"O...k. But how'd you know she said that?"
"Because Oliver made the mistake of ever dating that girl...Actually it wasn't his fault.
Here I'll give you the short version...
See Blaise started to like Oliver their fifth year of school, so she thought, and realized, she had no chance with him acting Slytherin-ish. So Blaise decided she would act more like a Gryffindor, so she cast a spell on herself to act more Gryffindor around Oliver, but to act like herself around anyone else, and as soon as they started going out the spell would wear off.
So, for some strange reason her idea worked, and Oliver fell for her. They started to date, and then the spell, of course, wore off and Blaise went back to her Slytherin self, so Oliver didn't like that Blaise and he dumped her.
So now every time Oliver starts to show interest in other girls, she writes them letters tell them how bad Oliver is. She's just trying to scare everyone in the school into not dating Oliver, so that she'll be the only one left for him to date."
"But doesn't she want him to like her and ask her out, for who she is, not because she's the last resort?"
"I guess not." Chanse looked over at Blaise who was talking away and then looked over at Chanse.
Blaise smiled at Chanse, but she only stared at her with anger in her eyes. Then Blaise looked at her like she was going to cast a spell on her, and slowly closed her eyes and slowly opened them again and looked away.
Chanse leaned over to Cho, "I think I just made my first Hogwarts enemy." They both laughed, and Cho nodded.
The day went on, and Oliver continued to show Chanse around to all her classes. The two of them were two busy to hear everyone talk about them, and how cute a couple they would be.
"The Gryffindor Keeper and the Ravenclaw Keeper." A second year girl named Lavender Brown said.
But Blaise Zabini just watched Chanse and thought of new ways to get Oliver back.
At the end of the day everyone returned to his or her room, but Chanse and Oliver. They sat in the courtyard and watched the sunset, "Hey Chanse!" Chanse looked up and saw Cho on the deck, "a package came for you. Here I'll send Geno down with it."
"Thanks, Cho!" Chanse yelled back. A few seconds later Geno came flying down, and dropped a package into Chanse's hands, and perched himself on Oliver's shoulders. "Thank you, Geno." Geno nodded, while Oliver petted him. Chanse smiled at Oliver and took the card off the package. To: Chanse Jackson (Potter). Chanse's eyes grew large and she laid the card on her chest and looked away, a little scared.
"Chanse, what's wrong?" Oliver asked.
Chanse turned around with shock, "Nothing." She smiled.
Then she turned back around and looked at the card again. She reread it. To: Chanse Jackson (Potter). Chanse took a deep breath and opened the card. She read:
Dear Chanse,
This was your mother's; your father gave the cape to her.
Chanse shoved the card into her purse and torn open the package.
When she finally was done, unwrapping the package, there was a magic book, a diary, and a cape, lying on the ground. Chanse slowly picked up the diary first.
She started to open it, when...
"What'd you get?" Oliver leaned forward with a big smile on his face.
"Nothing. I have to go, I'm sorry Oliver. Geno go home." Geno took flight, back up to Chanse's room.
Chanse quickly collected her stuff and stood up. Oliver grabbed her hand and stood up next to her, and slowly leaded in close to Chanse's face.
"Chanse..." Oliver whispered.
"Yeah, Oliver?"
"KISS HER!" Cho yelled from the deck. Oliver looked up and saw Cho then he looked all around and saw a couple other girls watching them, and laughed a little.
Oliver looked back at Chanse she was looking down. Oliver leaded in to her, "Chanse..." Chanse looked up into Oliver's, dark brown eyes, "I won't lose next time." Chanse looked at Oliver in a shock.
He walked by her and then he stopped, right next to her, "The Gryffindor password is Caput Draconis." Then he continued to walk past Chanse.
A Weasley twin hit a bludger towards Chanse. She smacked it back, with her right arm, and the glove slipped halfway off her arm, and the bludger went spinning off in a random direction.
"Oh the new keeper for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, is seeming to have some troubles." Lee Jordan smirked, on the megaphone.
