chapter 5: tryouts and all hallows eve
7:00 A.M. SEPTEMBER 13, 2003 THE QUIDDICH PITCH
Tat frosty September morning in Scotland saw two people waiting outside of the quiddich pitch as another person walked up to those two carrying a box
"good morning Potter and Smith" Oliver said with a smile "today we will be seeing if one or both of you will be able to make the quiddich team as either seeker or a reserve player. all year I've been telling McGonagall that we need reserve players just incase one of our players won't or cant play. you two will be the first to help out with my theory if I can help it."
"how will we see who will make the team?" said Jay with conviction
"for the position of seeker we will have a test to see who would be the best. you will both go into the air and after the snitch, the one who catches the snitch three out of five times will become the seeker. if it takes all five times to see who will become the seeker than the other of you will become the reserve and than I will see if you can become another reserve position while you both will test for all of the positions to see who will be reserve to what like if Potter here were to be the seeker but also a great keeper and I was to get put out of the game then you would become seeker and Potter would become keeper but if you would become seeker but also the reserve chaser and Katie bell were to be out then you would be chaser and Potter would be the seeker, do you understand?"
"yea"
"good now up in the air with you both"
after fifteen moments, both Harry and Jay had two catches both breaking each others record and close to beating the Gryffindor record of three minutes for the catch, that is until Harry caught the last snitch within two minutes and thirty seconds.
"it seems Harry is the starting seeker while James is the reserve." wood called out as they landed, "now its time for the chaser reserve position"
after forty minutes harry was the starting seeker and reserve keeper and beater while Jay was the reserve chaser and seeker.
8:00 THE GREAT HALL
this morning at breakfast saw the newly named golden quintet by Ron sitting down for breakfast
"so wood said that we were both now on th" Jay said as he was interrupted by Ron chewing like a cow, "nigga will you calm down and eat like a normal human being the food isn't going anywhere."
"scory" said Ron with a mouth full of food "by the way why does a whole plate of bacon appear in front of you but no one else?"
"because my greedy friend, my owl and I do not consume pork because I grew up not eating that. this right here is turkey bacon and yesterday I had beef bacon. why do you think I don't eat sausage. Any way as I was saying wood told us that we were both on the team but harry here has a starting position"
then Ron spit out his pumpkin juice that he had just taken a swallow of when he heard that "but first years aren't allowed to be on the team and if they could I would of course be on there. I am the best player here."
"what ever nigga, you couldn't play against a four year old"
everyone laughed at that statement while Ron was glowering
"watch next year when I try out. then we will see who is laughing" Ron mumbled with anger
just then the owls had arrived and Gwen had, along with another group of owls dropped a large package I front of Jay.
"great they are here" he said then asked harry to help him bring the package up to professor McGonagall and asked her to go over to the side.
"what is this about Mr. Smith."
"well professor these are new brooms for the school as well as two new nimbus' for the new seeker and reserve seeker of the team which before you say anything about two first years having brooms, it is allowed for all quiddich players to have brooms."
"well I was gonna ask why you got new brooms for the school?"
"well the brooms yesterday were very old and rickety which is why I decided to get new comet brooms as starter brooms for the whole school."
"but that isn't needed for you. professor Dumbledore needed to get new brooms. why would you buy them."
"well, being head of the most ancient and most noble house of Slytherin I think it falls under my responsibility to purchase new brooms for the school so none break. beside that all the money in the vault is from tuition any way so what better than to use it to get supplies for the school"
"thank you Mr. smith now you and Mr. potter bring these up to your rooms and hide them until the first quiddich match so no one thinks that you are breaking the rules"
"yes professor" they both said and left to bring the brooms to their dorm. as they were on the way to the Gryffindor tower, they ran into peeves
"oh ickle firsties running in the halls what would dumbles do if he so happened to catch them
"oh baron" Jay said hopping that it would work. just then bloody baron came through.
"yes my lord?"
"please get peeves away from us so that we can go to our dorms"
"yes my lord."
"thank you" they said while walking away
'I didn't think that would work' thought Jay as they reached the common room and they raced to put the brooms away.
OCTOBER 15, 2003 DEFENCE AGAINST THE DARK ARTS CLASSROOM
The Gryffindor students walked into the classroom and saw quirrell talking to himself. when quirrell saw the students he shut up and started the class
"ggggood mmmorning cclass tttoday we will be gggoing over the cccchapter on wwwraiths. now"
after class had ended jay harry and rick were leaving
"Harry did you notice quirrell talking to himself?" Jay said
"yea it was strange. but I just thought that he was going over his lesson plans."
'so harry is observant' Jay thought 'but he does think.'
THE GREAT HALL OCTOBER 31, 2003
It was a nice Halloween morning when the students were eating.
"last year I went as a pumpkin." Jay heard a muggleborn say, "mum made me dress like that for the last time. all of my school chums were making fun of me because there were a group of Americans going as the power rangers and a bunch of other guys who said they were a coven of vampires."
Jay remembered he went as a member of N.W.A. last year, or eleven years ago. he had a jerry curl with a pair of locs and a Compton hat. as he was describing it Ron interrupted.
"what's nuwa" he tried to sound out N.W.A.
"its a rap group" Jay said with glee,,,, "it stands for niggas wit attitudes."
the group then headed for their charms class. Ron sat in between Hermione and Maria while harry jay and rick sat above them.
"good morning class" said the height challenged professor, "today we will be learning the levitation spell, pronounced wingardium leviosa now remember swish and flick"
"win-gardium leviosar" Ron said while just poking the feather.
"Ron your doing it wrong" said Hermione with disgust "you have to pronounce each syllable so it would be wing-gardium leviosa."
"and don't just poke the feather either." Maria said
"if you two are so clever then you both do it" Ron said with a glare
'wingardium leviosa" they both said lifting the feathers
"congratulations to both of you" Flitwick said with glee "ten points to Gryffindor."
outside of the class jay and Harry hung back waiting for them to leave. jay knew Ron would upset them
"bloody nightmares both of them." he heard Ron shout "your doing it wrong no wonder they don't have any friends"
as Maria and Hermione pushed passed him jay said "you asshole" and went to stop them hoping to stop them from going into the bathroom and staying there all day. he arrived to late as they were in the bathroom. he was trying to get them out but with no luck so he told them that he would save them a seat at the feast. the only reason he would go there was to make sure harry would go to warn them...
while they were at the feast harry and jay were worried about the girls while Ron was stuffing his face. all of a sudden Quirrell ran in screaming about the troll and feigned passing out. jay grabbed harry and pulled him to the side.
"we have to warn the girls. they are crying in the bathroom because of Ron"
"right lets go"
as they headed to the bathroom they noticed the troll and Jay was a little shook but he pushed on.
when they arrived at the bathroom they noticed that the troll beat them there. they saw Maria and Hermione under the sink crying as the troll was throwing his club around then harry jumped on the trolls back and shoved his wand up the trolls nose while jay had pulled his wand out.
"harry jump off I have an idea."
that was when harry jumped off and jay started the swish and flick motion
"wingardium leviosa" all of the sudden the club of the troll went in the air and knocked the troll out as jay ran over to Maria and harry to Hermione.
"Maria," jay said worriedly I was so scared I would loss you I didn't know what to do."
"thank you both so much Hermione and I would have been dead if you two hadn't shown up"
Maria I have a question to ask you. will you, I mean will you be my girlfriend?"
"yes I would love that" Maria replied
as the two kissed a bright golden light appeared and the two were incased in it.
just then the teachers arrived.
"what happened here?" McGonagall asked
"well," Maria started "I was home sick and Hermione was cheering me up when the troll came in just then the boys came in here and rescued us. I'm sorry for putting the three of them in danger."
"quite alright at least you are all safe," then she turned to harry and James "why were you two in the girls bathroom anyway"
"well, jay stared "when the troll was announced we noticed neither Maria or Hermione were here so we went to look for them when we noticed the troll go in here and we heard screams we decided to try and save the two of them. I was just worried and hoped to help as much as I can."
"well it s not every day that two first years take on a fully grown mountain troll and live to tell the tale. thirty points will be awarded to each of you."
As the teachers left, the quartet had left to go back to their dorms with jay and Maria holding hands the whole way.
When they got back to the tower and got into their beds all jay could think of was that this was the best day ever.
A/n: thank you for your views as I have not received any reviews when posting this chapter
About the soul bond I decided to get that out of the way as soon as possible. They will not be getting married quarters till sixth year because there is a rule that only newt level students can receive them.
As for the horcruxes I want to get most of them out of the way before third year and ill leave you all to guess which one is the last one.
About peter, I want the fourth year to happen so when jay writes the letter he will escape but not until after Sirius gets a trial because the two founders heirs demand the trial. So he gets one
As for the house elf. You will see more about that on Christmas.
And yes Jay is James' nickname
Next chapter will be quiddich and Christmas
Oh and before I forget there is a poll up on whether to make this one long story or separate the years
Thank you once again
