Behind the manor the Black, Lupin, and Potter children were dividing into two teams to begin a Quidditch game. Or at least they were trying to.
"Alright I get Harry," said Griffin.
"No way that's not fair," said Ebony. "You always get Harry."
"Yea and you two always win," said Arianna.
"That would be why I want him on my team," replied Griffin with a lopsided grin.
"Fine then I get Kieran," said Christiana.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, no that's way too unfair," said Harry.
"How so?" said Faolon.
" Well let's see, one she's got you and Arianna already, two she's got you, three she's an enchantress which we've all already marveled at, and four it's Griffin's turn to pick."
"It is not!" said Arianna.
"Yes it is…" Harry started but Griffin nudged him.
"It is there turn Harry."
"Oh well fine but still you can't have Kieran."
"You guys are so stupid," said Bade. Everyone turned apparently unaware that he was there until that moment.
"Who are you calling stupid buddy?" said Griffin.
"He's calling you stupid, stupid," said Skylar.
"Just forget it," Bade replied. "By the time we pick teams it'll be midnight."
Everyone considered the matter for a moment before Griffin mounted his broom, threw the Quaffle at Harry, and shouted, "Kill the carrier."
Harry looked around for a split second but then seeing everyone charging at him made him take off and soar threw the sky. The game went on for quite a while. Then Cadence Black came out onto the pitch and shot red sparks into the sky that just missed Arianna's ear.
"Watch it Cadence!" she screamed down from her broom.
"It's time to eat stupid!" Cadence retorted.
When all the brooms had been stored in the shed at the edge of the pitch, all of the kids made there way up to the manor. Every now and then Cadence would turn someone's hair a different color. After she had turned Griffin's hair green and silver for the third time he finally had enough.
"Would you stop that," he said obviously annoyed.
"But it's so much fun Griff, and you wouldn't want to deprive me of my fun would you?"
"Where did you get that wand any way?" asked Arianna.
"Well if I told you that…" Cadence began, but she broke off when they reached the house. Sirius was standing in the doorway glaring at Cadence, who was hastily trying to hide the wand behind her back.
"Cadence how many times have I told you NOT to touch my wand?" Sirius asked in a would-be-calm voice.
Sensing his father's anger Griffin motioned for everyone to make there way into the house. As they made there way into the dining room they could still her Sirius's shouts and Cadence's protests.
