A/N high?D I'm glad you liked that part, my guidance counselor used to ask me if I had 'problems' cause I would write poetry and stuff on my arm and refused to show her. She said my 'friends' were worried about me. Well I didn't really talk to anyone particularly no one who would take my writing as anything more than boredom.
GO PEOPLE WITH ANTI SOCIAL PROBLEMS! WE RULE THE WORLD IN WANTING PEOPLE TO LEAVE US ALONE!
I have issues. Can't you tell? Look, I grew up in a small town in the same school with the same fifty kids for nine years. I have a right to be screwed up.
Back to the story, Cecilia, REALLY sorry I spelled your name wrong, I was too tired to look it up when I wrote my thanks. I'm REALLY sorry and please continue to help me.
Anyway, she's reading the next chapter so I'm writing the chapter necessary for that one to happen but I'm waiting for her to see if that chapter is ok cause it's an important one.
"It's the game of the season. This is the final game to determine the winner of the cup," our favorite Slytherin Quidditch captain said dramatically to his team.
"Thank you Captain Obvious," someone muttered.
"We need to win this game," the captain continued, "so don't screw this up." This last snarl was directed at Li. Her face darkened. Lucius put a warning hand on her shoulder. Li was volatile, but particularly before important games. He, she was a natural flyer and had the grace of some itching to be in the air so much she didn't care who she stepped on when her feet were on the ground. Unfortunately before all really important games, even so much as a scowl in her direction put her off. It was a rumor that Evans had beat up a boy and shoved him into the girls' bathroom for making a disgusting face in her direction even though it was later found out that he had eaten an earwax flavored bean. Li neither confirmed nor disproved this story so it remained a legend.
"Let's go out," Lucius told her. She nodded and took a deep breath before marching purposefully onto the field. She resembled a skittish horse before a race.
"I want this to be a nice clean game," the ref told them. The two captains shook hands and everyone flew into the sky. The Quaffle was thrown into the air and the game began. The opposing chaser snatched it. Li noted ideally that the opposing team was Griffindor. It didn't really matter, a game was a game no matter who you played. Lucius stole the Quaffle from the poor Griffindor chaser but dropped it when hit in the head by a bludger directed at him by a BLACK haired beater.
The Quaffle was taken by Potter and the game continued. Li did a few circles in the air to stretch out. The opposing seeker looked at her like she was nuts. Li scowled at him and searched for the snitch. The other seeker decided to trail Li rather than looking for it himself. There was no sign of the snitch so Li decided to give the other seeker a run for his money. She dived suddenly only pulling up a meter from the ground. The other seeker caught himself just a few centimeters before crashing.
Li continued to chase the pretend snitch when a glint of gold caught her eye. It was zooming in fast circles around the field and doing loop de loops. Li followed it at top speeds zooming round and round. He stomach gave a lurch as she went upside down once again. There it was, right under her. There wasn't enough time to turn her broom so Li did the only thing she could think of. She dropped her hands and hung upside down, her legs clinging to the broom. The snitch once again changed position so she put a hand on the broom and chased after it while remaining upside down.
In the back of her mind she heard the announcer yelling that flying upside down had to be illegal. He was a Griffindor, what did they know about playing fair? The snitch was again underneath her. She dropped her hands but it was still out of her grasp. She loosened her legs until she was hanging on only by her ankles. She felt the feathery wings of the snitch brush her hand. She silently prayed for her broom to speed up and felt the cool gold ball slip into her hand. She allowed herself a moment of triumph. She heard the shouts and yells of the people on the field. She felt the wind shift. She tried to tighten her grip with her ankles. The broom swerved violently and on foot feet leaving her hanging on with the top of her foot. It started to slip and she knew it was only a matter of seconds before she fell. Her foot lost contact and Li felt herself falling. She felt light as a feather and very heavy at the same time. Things seemed so peaceful. She was simply falling through the sky.
Severus watched from the stands. He saw Li catch the snitch. The whole Slytherin side went wild. Severus took his attention off the field for a moment. He turned back and saw her fall. He saw her falling through the air at breakneck speeds toward the earth. Her body hit the earth with a sickening thud. Severus pushed past the Slytherins. The mob made it hard to even take a step. There was more than one person who had fallen and was being trampled. He turned his gaze to the field. Lucius had gotten to her and someone was conjuring up a stretcher. Her body was taken away. Severus could see the teacher trying to get rid of Lucius who was following Li, but he refused. Severus saw the teacher give up. The three of the disappeared into the castle.
Ok, not my best, but it's a connecting chapter, it gets you to the next one. The next one will go up as soon as the person who's helping me gets back to me.
