Chapter Eight:

Kae sighed and sat up. She had to get through today because it was the Quidditch match. Nothing would stop her from playing Quidditch, not even her running away plans.

The Quidditch match would be after lessons though so she put on her school robes. She sighed and then walked down to have breakfast. Coming late, she slumped down next to Malfoy, ignoring him, and began spread jam onto a toast. She looked around and saw that everybody at the Slytherin table was wearing a green and silver scarf. She looked a bit out of place wearing her plain gray school uniform and black robes. She looked to her left to see even Malfoy was sporting one of the Slyhterin scarves. He grinned at her and she turned back to her plate. Looking up again she saw the other three houses were wearing red and gold scarves – Gryffindor. Seemed neither Ravenclaw, nor Hufflepuff were supporting Slytherin and Kae knew why.

After breakfast it was lessons, then lunch, lessons again and then the match.

Kae hurried down to the pitch with Malfoy both of them their brooms over their shoulders. Kae shook her head and sat down onto her broom. She pulled Malfoy onto it and then the two of them sped off to the pitch.

They reached the changing rooms not too exhausted and pulled on their robes quickly.

Raid went over the match and then: "We can't let that stuck-up muggle-born team Gryffindor beat us again."

"They've beaten you before?" Kae asked slightly mocking. Raid glared down at her and she leaned back in her seat. He was really determined to win; she knew that face from the last team captain.

"Malfoy, watch the Snitch. Don't let Potter catch it; kick him off his broom if you must. Caurus, Granger, keep those wretched Chasers from our goalposts and if you must help Malfoy" Raid said nodding over to Malfoy who gave him a dirty look.

They heard the crowd outside and Raid got up. Then they went out onto the field and flew into the grounds, the Slytherin crowd yelling over the others booing. Then the Gryffindors entered and were greeted by tremendous cheering.

"Now I want a fair game" Madam Hooch said and opened the trunk holding the Quidditch balls. The Bludgers and the Snitch flew out. The Snitch, as it usually did, teased Malfoy and Harry before flying off to hide. The Bludgers split up and circled the pitch. Professor Hooch grabbed the Quaffle and threw it into the air. Giving a blow from her whistle, Angelina Johnson grabbed the Quaffle and ducked under Raid and was immediately tailed by the other two Chasers of each team. Grim sped up beside her while Harper ducked under her. Both the Gryffindor Chaser's flanked Angelina and just as Grim was about to smack the ball out of her hand, Angelina passed to the Chaser on her left. Grim swore and then ducked under Angelina. Raid had caught up with Alicia Spinnet and grabbed the Quaffle from right under her arms. He ducked under her and sped across the field.

Meanwhile Harry and Malfoy were hovering over the field watching the game and each of them keeping a lookout for the Snitch. Caurus and Kae were hovering a bit lower than them, not content to interfere as strangely enough the Bludgers were only speeding around the pitch in circles.

And then just before Raid was going to throw the Quaffle to Harper who had a clear shot of one of the goals, a Bludger flew right as his nose, confusing him. Katie Bell rushed past, snatched the Quaffle and turned around grinning widely. Raid looked up and swore at the two Syltherin Beaters who then committed themselves to the game.

Kae swooped down at smacked the second Bludger at Katie Bell who threw the Quaffle to Alicia and then ducked down, the Bludger only barely missing her broom.

Caurus took the other Quaffle and shot it towards Angelina who Alicia was on the verge of throwing the ball to. Alicia took the thought back and ducked down under Harper who looked confused on his broom.

Raid was back by the Quaffle and one saw that the Syltherin team had no sense in teamwork and were all just trying to get the ball.

Raid swooped past Katie who stopped to let him past, sneered at him and then through the Quaffle easily though the hoop, as the Slytherin Keeper, Tom Teres, had found unless to pay attention.

Raid immediately gave out another round of swearwords, this time directed in Teres' direction.

Kae and Caurus were flying next to each other, each chasing a Bludger, that had both seen to it that the Seeker's should have some fun to.

Behind them, or rather under them, Aaron Lynch and Warren Rest, the new Gryffindor Beaters, tried to keep up with them. Warren had a Nimbus 2001 while Aaron was still on an older model.

Caurus and Warren reached the Bludger's before the other two and each smacked them in the direction of the opposing Seeker. Both Harry and Malfoy had seen the Bludger coming and had ducked aside just in time. The Bludgers turned and focused back on the Chasers. The four Beaters set off again.

Then Malfoy saw it, he tipped his broom lighting and flew down towards the Gryffindor goalposts. Harry saw him and raced after him. Tail on tail the two of them flew towards the bottom of the middle goalpost and both of them flew past one side, the Snitch now gone. Malfoy swore while Harry looked around if it was still in the area.

After a while when the game stood seventy to fifty for Gryffindor, the Snitch was spotted again, this time by Harry. He flew towards the Ravenclaw crowd and Malfoy who was closer ducked down to.

Harry grinned and turned his broom just before he reached the crowd and snatched the Snitch from where it actually was – hovering over the middle of the pitch.

Malfoy stopped just before he hit the crowd and swore loudly. The whole audience, apart from the Slytherins, cheered loudly as Harry flew around the pitch the Snitch in hand, smiling happily.

The Slytherin team landed and stopped off the filed looking enraged, only Kae stayed on the field. She'd kind of known Gryffindor would win, even though she despised him, she couldn't deny the fact that Harry was a good player, and that the Gyffindor team seemed to play as a team, whilst the Slytherin's were just out on winning.

She watched Harry and the other Gryffindor's land a few feet from her and then happily crowd around Harry. Hermione came running across the field and hugged him as well. When Hermione let go of the group hug she spotted Kae and gave a superior grin.

Kae huffed and then turned to leave the field. This would all be over tomorrow anyway, she thought.

This is waaaaay short, I'm sorry. But I didn't really know what to right, I'm not JKRowling, am I?

I read one of my criticer's bio's on account of me know what kind of an idiot he was and found he gave one or two tips on how to write Harry Potter stories. Over looking the stuff about no one being better than Hermione in any subject and something else, I came to the point, which said that Slytherin could never win against Gryffindor.

I guess, that was in some way true, even if one of the Slytherin players had nearly made the German team, I guessed I'd just let Gryffindor win, since well… a Beater doesn't really make a difference, right?

Well, hope you liked the chapter anyway, I did ^^ Hope my German fans really are reading this instead of saying how good it was opposed to how it sucked (*kicks criticism*) well, anyway, I think there's only two more chapters to go…
