Mystery Quidditch match WOOT!
THIS CHAPTER is dedicated to Michelle my one and only I hope your sister is okay!
CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
Thursday, Thursday, Thursday. So it was the day of the unknown Quidditch match and the whole school was a twitter. It was breakfast and thee team were all sitting together at the Hufflepuff table cheery, awake, but nervous. Each of them were giving each other pep talks, but none of them were as confident as they were the day before. Unlike usual, time seemed to slow down instead of speed up. Finally after what seemed like eons Dumbledore cleared his throat,
"To do this orderly, we ask the Gryffindor table to leave first," he announced, "then the Slytherin Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff can follow." There was a loud screech as the students from the Gryffindor table stood up. Pushing their chairs back, they began to make their way to the transport vessels.
"Damnit, we are the last to leave." Draco said in whiny voice.
"We'll get there okay." Harry said. He was on edge, a captain trying to keep his team calm. Emma-Leigh leaned over and squeezed his hand smiling she said,
"Only one more table to go." She said as the Slytherins stalked to the entrance hall. When the Hufflepuffs finally left the team held back.
"Okay," Harry said clearing his throat. "We don't know what we're up against, but we are ready. We have practice and worked very hard and no matter what we are faced with… well… we will do our best, and we will win." They were all transported to their mystery place. When they got there the students of Hogwarts screaming surrounded them. Emma-Leigh fainted.
"Oh My GOD!" she said when Harry had awoken her.
"What?" Harry was very confused along with the other Hogwarts students all worried that they no longer had a third chaser.
"Do you know where we are?" Harry shook his head.
"Home" said a familiar voice from behind them. Emma-Leigh jumped up and the two girls collided with a shriek and a flash of blonde, pink and purple.
"MICHHY BABY!"
"EMMELZ!"
Soon after this reunion Ron, Hermione, and Harry all joined in on the dog pile. Draco smiled at the site of Michelle but when she say pansy, she gave him the cold shoulder, so Draco grudgingly followed suit. Pansy sniggered when she say Michelle's glare. Draco could have hit her.
"Newman!" came a shrill voice. Emma-Leigh turned around and saw her old headmistress, Professor Bullavardez, swoop down on her pulling her into a huge hug.
"Oh Professor!" Professor Bullavardez was a beautiful woman with long, pure black, curly hair with green eyes. She had sparkling white teeth and a great smile.
"Emma-Leigh, I have missed you so much. I've seen a lot less of your friends as well since you left." She smiled
"Yes, it was always my fault." Emma-Leigh said rolling her eyes.
"Professor Bullavardez…" Dumbledore said "will you please let go of my chaser so we can get on with the game?" Bullavardez looked startled.
"You….Chaser?… Chaser?" she asked "But… you… Seeker… best? YOU WERE THE BEST SEEKER!" Emma-Leigh blushed
"Wait till you see Harry as Seeker." She said in her defence. Which make Harry blush.
"Yah but the only time we were both seekers you won." Harry said so Emma-Leigh blushed even more
"Damnit you win I'M THE BEST!"
By this time everyone was outside waiting outside for the match to begin. They hurried down to the pitch. Lee Jordan was unable to make the match so James Amos (Bewitchment) was doing the commentary.
"ALRIGHT EVERYBODY WELCOM TO THE CHAMPIONS AGAINST CHAPIONS MATCH! HOGWARTS AGAINST BEWITCHMENT!" both schools screamed "The Bewitchment team makes its way onto the Pitch" Seven bright blue flashes came onto the field. "We've got REID, NEWMAN, HOLMES, LAWLEY, GIDDINGS, MCAULAY, annnnd MALEK!" the students of BSS screamed stomped and waved their flags. Emma-Leigh bounced up and down on her broom "YAY… wait… damnit" she said as she realized that they were her opponents.
"Before we go out there," Harry said "I will remind you tat this is a Quidditch match, don't forget that they are against you Emmelz." Before Emma-Leigh had the chance to retort James began again.
"With the Hogwarts team we have TJ, TAFFY, LOLLIPOP, SUNRIZE, EMMELZ, THE PRINCE, annnnd BWL!" Hogwarts students screamed, stomped and waved their flags. "Welcome back to our own Emma-Leigh Newman, who is playing on home soil for the first time in a year, even if it is for the other side." Hogwarts and Bewitchment students screamed alike.
"Anyways, as both teams take their… okay… uhm looks like Newman is…" Mandy Newman, Emma-Leigh's little sister, was flying around the pitch with her Beaters club held high in the air yelling,
"I GET TO HIT MY SISTER AND MY MUM CNAT GET MAD WOOOOO!" over and over again.
"Hey MANDYCAP!" Emma-Leigh yelled, "How bout you play Quidditch!" Mandy got to her place.
"Alright now that there are all in place. The Bludgers and Snitch have gone up." The Snitch circled around Courteney and Harry then darted off so fast neither of them could follow it.
"The Quaffle goes up and it begins. The first person to get the Quaffle is Lawley, who passes to Holms… Oh Holmes was hit by a Bludger from Taffy… so she drops it and Sunrize gets it and zooms towards McAulay. Passes to Emmelz who doges a Bludger… and another. Well we can see she hasn't lost her talent over in England. She flies around the hoops a few times and shoots oh she scores! 10 points to Hogwarts" Emma-Leigh flew towards Michelle and gave her a hug before flying off. The game was neck and neck. Every time Hogwarts got a goal Bewitchment would and vice versa. Both Draco and Michelle made wonderfully spectacular saves. After an hour and a half the score was fifty all. Both Harry and Courteney called time outs to talk to their teams.
"Okay you guys," Harry started,
"It's about time we get some points," Courteney explained,
"It's obvious that we are pretty much at the same skill level." Harry pointed out,
"But if we have any secret weapons," Courteney said,
"We better use them now." Harry decided,
"RIGHT!" both teams shouted in unison.
"Now that the teams are back in the air you can see they are pulling out all the tricks to win this game." James said. Nobody could take their eyes off the game for more then a second, they tried not to blink even, because the game was moving so fast.
"Lawley, Holmes, Giddings, Lawley, Emmelz, Holmes, Goal for BSS, The Prince passes back to Emmelz…" and all of that was in the course of less then a minute. And of course the beaters weren't just sitting around. All four of them were hitting the Bludgers towards the other team members. Mandy was really taking advantage of 'hitting Emma-Leigh without getting in trouble'. She took a lot of shots at her sister, even though Emma-Leigh dodged most of them. It was now two hours and fifteen minutes into the game and the score was 90-100 for Bewitchment. Courteney started to dive on her Nimbus 2000, with Harry right behind her.
"OH MY BOTH SEEKERS HAVE GONE INTO A DIVE! Oooh! Both Bludgers were hit towards them… both dodged, but now BWL is a head of Malek" Harry let go of his broom to reach for the snitch.
"Uhm.. Both Seekers fell off their brooms… or they crashed into the ground.. We are just waiting for the dust to settle to see who actually caught the Snitch," James said looking down at the pitch. Both Seekers zoomed out of the cloud of dust. Harry held the little gold ball over his head. Courteney had a look of defeat on her face, along with the rest of the BSS team. Hogwarts on the other hand were screaming and jumping around and screaming some more. Emma-Leigh practically jumped onto Harry's broom throwing her arms around his neck
"WE WON!" Each member of each team shook each other's hands. Emma-Leigh hugged everyone; all of them were her 'Quidditch Friends' seeing as she was their old captain. Once they were back on the ground Emma-Leigh was surrounded by Hogwarts and BSS people. All of her old friends had crowded around her. The Auditorium groupies were all hugging her.
"MATTY" she said as she stood on her tip toes to hug Matt Lawley the BSS chaser.
"No one has called me Matty for a log time" he said
"Well that was always my name for you" Emma-Leigh smiled. Harry came up beside Emma-Leigh she latched onto his arm.
"Harry, this is Matt. Matt, this is Harry." They shook each other's hand.
"Emma-Leigh we gotta go back" Emma-Leigh's smile disappeared.
"Nooo! I don't wanna go back!" Emma-Leigh stood their pouting.
"You don't have to." Dumbledore and Bullavardez were all of a sudden behind them.
"We've talked it over and you and a few friends can stay 'till Sunday night " Dumbledore said while Bullavardez nodded, her shiny hair bouncing with each nod. Emma-Leigh smiled again and started to bounce up and down.
"Harry, Hermione, Ron and Draco come on!" The four other students quickly joined her side.
"You will miss the after party, but I dare say you will have one once you get back anyways." Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye. As he left the transport area.
"Uhm… Draco you're not going to stay with these people are you?" Pansy shrieked but Draco was already gone. Everyone hugged everyone and Emma-Leigh and the Drama Freaks said PARTY! IN THE AUDITORIUM… NOW!
YAY BSS we get to meet all of Emma-Leigh's crazy friends! Wooo!
