(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny gripped her broom tightly in her right hand as she walked out onto the pitch. As she walked out, a cheer rose up from the crowd-particularly her fellow Hufflepuffs. The red head waved as she mounted her broom, a calm appearance on her freckled face masking the thought process going on inside-specifically, the exact timing and movements for each and every tactic they had come up with. Her brown eyes scanned the field for her other teammates, but only saw Herby.::

"Hey Herby! Have a good game today!" ::Ginny called out cheerfully with a wave. She felt it was only proper to be cordial to the opposing team-after all, the Hufflepuffs WOULD beat them in the end. The red head shook off the still fresh sting of losing the battle to the Gryffindors-they could've done better, she knew it, they knew it. But, sadly the hadn't. Well, it was simply time for her and her team to redeem themselves now wasn't it?::

(Hufflepuff beater)

:Marie rushed on the Quidditch pitch, feeling a bit tired but somewhat very happy, though she didn't know exactly why. Waving excitedly at Ginny, she grabbed her bat and jumped on her broom, firmly quicking the ground. She went up in the sky and flew around the pitch, feeling the wind in her air, preparing herself to defend her team member or to attack the other team.

She looked around her, waiting for the other members to arrive, making strategies and following one of the bludger with her eyes:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::She returned Marie's wave, and the red head watched closely as Madame Hooch released the Quaffle. Putting on a burst of speed, her brown eyes narrowed as she barely avoided a very painful crash but caught the Quaffle in the end. Ginny pulled up at an extremely sharp angle that cracked her back slightly.::

"Oof." ::Was all the red head said as she stretched, keeping a tight grip on the Quaffle. Her brown eyes searched the field once more, and once more seeing only Marie and Herby.::

"Well, although I love my team I guess it would be best not to waste time waiting for them...so to the goal posts I go!" ::She nearly gave McGonagall a heart attack as she swerved out of the way to sneak up on the goal posts. Ginny pulled her arm back muscles taut, and with all of her badger might, through the Quaffle through the right hoop for a precise goal that went right through the center of the hoop::

(Hufflepuff Beater)

:Marie cheered as she saw Ginny marking the first goal of the match. It was a good sign. With a quick glance around her, Marie flew toward Ginny and stopped beside her friend:

"Looks like we're going to be alone for a little while... but I'm sure the others will come soon. Until then... let's do our best!" grinned Marie cheerfully

She zoomed back to the middle of the pitch and waited for something to happen:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::The red head smiled and nodded.::

"Seems like a good game plan to me!" ::Ginny shouted after her team mate. Brown eyes now back on the pitch, Ginny noticed that there still seemed to be no opposition from the Ravenclaws. She chuckled and shrugged, retrieving the quaffle with ease once more.::

"Which way will she go!?" ::Ginny shouted to the crowd.::

"CENTER" ::Came the loud and enthusiastic shout. She nodded with a laugh and started flying up the center of the pitch. Her red hair whipped out like a flag behind her, and her quidditch robes were a black and yellow banner of VICTORY. Ginny flew upside down and lightly tossed the Quaffle through the ring, landing on the top of the hoop.::

"Ya like that?!"

"YA!" ::Replied the badger loving crowd::

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Jen walked out of the locker room with her broom under her left arm. Noticing Ginny already starting to score goals on the other side of the field, Jen hopped on her broom and pushed off into the air.::

"Don't forget me!" She called out to Ginny. "You shouldn't have all the fun!" She held out her hands in a catchers pose and waited for Ginny to pass her the quaffle. "We might as well take this time to practice until more Ravenclaws appear."

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Her brown eyes sparkled as she saw Jenn.::

"JENN!" ::Ginny squealed, flying over to her. She tossed the Quaffle lightly to her teammate, who caught it with ease.::

"Okay, practice sounds good, did you have anything in particular in mind?"

(hufflepuff chaser)

"I'm here i'm here i'm here!" flisan shouted, hopping on one leg as she tied her left shoe while trying to get onto her broom at the same time. She stepped on the back of her quidditch robes and nearly fell over, waving her arms in a wide circle to keep her balance.

"Sorry for being late!" she shouted up at ginny and jenn who were apparently practicing. "Seems like i didn't miss much anyways, hm?"

grinning she jumped on her broom and kicked off the ground, holding out one hand for the Quaffle.:

(Hufflepuff Beater)

:Marie smiled as she saw two other team members getting on the pitch:

"Jenn!!! Flissie!!!" she said happily while flying toward them

:She sighed and as the three Hufflepuff chaser were having fun with the Quaffle, she started to chase the bludgers all around the pitch, hitting them in every direction she could, carefully avoiding to aim her friends though:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny laughed and waved to Flissy.::

"Hey Flissy! About time!" ::she shouted with a giggle. The red head turned to Jenn::

"Toss the ball to Flissy, we'll try the Huffle Puff a Boo." ::Ginny whispered.:: "Flissy will be the one to actually score, okay?" ::She looked around to make sure no Ravenclaws were close enough to hear her-thankfully, they weren't. Ginny decided to distract them with some of her crazed badger tactics::

"HEY RAVIES! OVER HE-ERE!" ::She flew behind Herby and tickled her sides, then shot up in the air::

"Come on! You can fly better than that! You're eagles!" ::Ginny taunted.::

(hufflepuff chaser)

:flisan came close to the other two chasers, forming a tight circle, with their backs facing outward. Then all three of the zoomed of towards the goal posts, Flisan holding the quaffle.... or was ginny? maybe jenn still had it...:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny winked at the crowd::

"Do you think it's me that has the Quaffle? Want another Ginny Goal?" ::She asked, flying around in zigzagged motions, jenn mirroring her movements. The red head narrowed her eyes as she neared the goal::

"BADGERS FOR THE WIN!"

(hufflepuff chaser)

:Flisan grinned as she pulled her arm back, while the other two chasers did the same. all three of them threw their "quaffles" forward at the same time but only flisan's quaffle soared through the goal posts, as she was the one who actually had it.

"SCORE!" flisan cheered and hugged ginny and jenn happily. "Although it would have been mroe fun if there had been a keeper...":

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny opened up her arms, showing there had been no Quaffle. She stuck out her tongue playfully::

"Sorry! Tricked you!" ::the red head giggled and hugged Flissy and Jenn. Ginny sighed::

"Granted, but, then it wouldn't be as flawless."

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Jen catches the quaffle as it was thrown in the air after the whistle blew. She cringed her head to look behind her and caught Flisan's eye and looked down. She then started flying toward the goal post with the quaffle safely between her and the broomstick. Flisan took her place and started to fly in a countercircle around her to block opposing players and bludgers. As they flew toward the goal posts, Jen threw the quaffle up and grinned as Flisan caught it smoothly like they practiced.::

(hufflepuff chaser)

:flisan cuaght the quaffle and tucked it under her arm. she and jenn exchanged places twice before she threw the quaffle back at her teammate and caught it again shortly after. they were quickly approaching the goal posts, still passing the quaffle back and forth. Flisan looked over her shoulder and nodded at gin, who nodded back. She then turned around and pulled her arm back to pass once more.:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny flew into position and caught the Quaffle.She flew around Flissy and Jenn twice, and then aligned herself with the far right goal. The red head could feel her robes flying in the wind behind her, and her brown eyes watered slightly as her speed increased.::

"Deep breath, draw back your arm and..." ::she whispered to herself, her muscles tightening in her arm as she pulled her arm back and scored for the third? time.::

"Alright! Great idea Jenn!" ::Ginny cheered on her fellow chaser:: "Wonderful throw too, Flissy."

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Picking up the quaffle once more, Jen checked the area around her to make sure she was safe to pass the quaffle. Just then, a bludger zoomed at her from above through a dark cloud! Jen flopped back on her broomstick and tried to navigate her broom out of harm's way. The bludger flew through the strands of her hair and hit the bottom to her broom, jerking her to one side and spinning her in crazy circles in the direction of the Ravenclaw's goal posts. As she spun uncontrollably on her broom, she thried to regain control again. Noticing the quaffle still in her arms, she hoped for the best and tossed the ball hard to the left. Jen jerked the broomstick with all her might to prevent crashing into the Ravenclaw keeper. She closed her eyes in terror as she flew head first into a nearby tree.::

"I'm okay! I'm okay!" Jen called out as she popped her head out from between two branched. She coughed a bit and started to pull leaves from her hair as she scanned the field anxiously for sight of her abandoned quaffle. Jen breathe a sigh of relief as she spotted Ginny with the quaffle as she flew toward the goals.::

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Ginny flew towards the goals lazily, and with a yawn she tucked it tighter under her arm. She dodged a bludger, or maybe it was too, she was going far too fast to be sure. The red head quickly fired the ball through the left hoop and gave a half-hearted cheer as it went through.::

"YAY!"

(Ravenclaw seeker)



:...Polly ran on and hoped onto her broom the lovely feeling swept through her as she sored throught the air looking for the snitch...:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Jen grinned to herself as she watched Herb take the stand as a keeper for the opposing team. She was glad that there was going to be a fight for this game. She came to play a good game of Quidditch, not just to pass the quaffle around. She looked over at Flisan and caught the ball as it was thrown up in the air. She then flew toward the goal post to try to make a goal. She quickly dipped underneath a bit to avoid a oncoming bludger. As she arrived at the posts, she threw her arm back to try to make a goal. But everywhere she aimed Herb got in her way. Jen looked over her shoulder and turned her broom around to fly in the other direction.::

(Hufflepuff Beater)

:Marie noticed that Jenn was having trouble with scorring. Maybe Keeper wasn't Herby's usual position, but she was certainly good at it. Marie evaluated the situation, looked around her and then smiled. Yes, that was good. She glanced at Jenn quickly and flew toward the goal herself. As she was coming closer to Herby, she felt something beside her. Perfect...

Marie stopped abrubtly as a bludger passed in front of her. She grabbed her bat and firmly sent it flying toward Herby, who avoided it by diving to the ground, clearing the place for Jenn:

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

::Jen noticed the bludger fly right pass her toward the goalposts. With on hand on the broomstick, Jen pulled all her weight to one side and made a quick one 180 with on her broom. She quickly pulled her arm back and aimed the quaffle on the far left goalpost just as Herby ducked to the right to get out of the way of the bludger that Marie so cleverly aimed in her direction. Jen grinned as the quaffle flew straight into the goalpost! "Score!" Jen grinned cheekly at Marie, "Great minds think alike!"::

(Racelcaw seeker)



:...Zooming after the snitch i felt alone in this game it was only me and herby from ravenclaw where were they. I was getting closer and cloaser to the snitch folowing its trail my hand was barly inches away from it and then i felt first the frount of my broom then the whole of me slamed aginst the ravenclaw posts herby came and helped me as i was falling i came up and punched the posts in a mood then started crying and the pain in my hand the snitch had got away...:

(Hufflepuff Seeker)

:HAving just arrived fresh another fight with a muggle contaption known as a computer, Etta dived onto her broom and took off into the sky, whilst hurridley pulling on her Quiddich robes. Smiling at her team mates, Etta waved, staightening her robes, she scanned the crowd and smiled as she watched Polly lose sight of the snitch, Luckly for Etta, she had a good eye on it and roared after it, her pony tail slapping her in the face as she flew hard and fast.:

(hufflepuff Seaker.)

:Etta flattened herself against the handle of her broom and dived for the snitch, growling at her broom, she began to pick up speed. Just in front of her, and oblivious to the Snitch's prencence was Polly, Etta grinned as she spun her broom sideways, knocking Polly off her broom, and reached out.

Closing her hand tightlyaround the attempting to be free snitch Etta screamed with joy before pointing at the Ravenclaw team.

"If you snooze you lose!" She laughed and flew to the safety of the ground, where she began the Hufflepuff celebrations for catching the Snitch.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

"Wow, its over already? I didn't even notice!" Jen exclaimed as she flew down to the ground to celebrate and start writing essays again.::

:Polly flew down to the ground having not catched the snitch again.:
