*gryffindor chaser*

::prinny walked on to the pitch...could she really be the first one here? normally she didnt know about the matches till they were almost over::

::she kicked off and flew around the pitch, waiting for everyone else to arrive::

(rushes off to tell amber that the match has started)

(Hah... Gryff Keeper - on time! GET IN!!)

::Swift bounced onto the pitch, exuberant and rather hyper after the last match; she had felt her commentating wasn't so bad, for a first try. So it was with this happy feeling that she zoomed into the air, taking her place in front of the Gryffindor goalposts. The weather, it seemed, matched her mood; the sun was shining, birds were singing, hippos were fly.... She shook her head, blinking a few times. Surely hippos didn't FLY?!

Glancing up at Elfie in the Professors' Box, Swift sighed, rolling her eyes at her headmistress, who was thoroughly having fun with floating the purple blobs around.

Grinning, the keeper turned to the only other player on the pitch.

"HEY PRINNY!!! READY TO KICK SOME EAGLES' BUTT???"::

(Hehehe..... I think I'm hypeeeeeeerrrrrrrr......... :D)

(gryff chaser)

"sure swifty!...if they ever turn up!"

::went to join swifty at the keepers stands::

"swifty i'm bored!"

(Gryffindor Chaser)

::Amy flew onto the pitch, noticing only blurs of red flying around - there were no blue blurs, meaning that the Ravenclaws had yet to arrive at the pitch.

She called across to her fellow team-mates.

"Hey all! Ready for the match?"

They yelled back various affirmations, and Amy jumped onto her broom and kicked off into the air, flying a few laps in preparation of the match ahead.::

(gryff chaser)

"hey amy! where is everyone?"

::prinny did some loop the loops...where was everyone?::

(Gryffindor Chaser)

"I dunno!" ::Amy called over to Aliza, then realised they may as well make advantage of the Ravenclaw-free pitch, and so she swooped down to take the Quaffle, and threw it across to Aliza.

"We may as well get a head-start if the Raven's can't be bothered to turn up on time!" ::She shouted over::

(Gryffindor Beater)

::Amber run into the field, broom in hand. She noticed that only Gryffindors were there and smiled.::

"Hey guys! Sorry I'm late atleast I came this time!" ::She yelled slightly blushing.::

(gryff chaser)

::prinny grabbed the quaffle and flew over to the raven's goal posts and scored!:: (duh!)

::then retrieving the quaffle she threw it back to amy::

(Gryffindor Beater)

::Amber smiled. If the rest of the match went like this it was smooth sailing for the Gryffindors.::

"Where is everyone?" ::She asked aloud.::

(Ravenclaw Beater)

"Be on your toes, mum, some of your grandkids have inherited their mother's arm!"

::Elana laughed as she ran onto the Pitch while tying her hair back into a hurried ponytail. Could she be implying me? I'll try not to hurt her, [\i] she thought, smirking, [i]but I can't promise anything. (She was Jesse's daughter after all.)::

::She anxiously looked up to see if there were any of her team-mates playing yet. And I thought I was late. Where is everyone? She swung a leg over her broom and kicked off, fist tightening around her Beater's bat. Time to teach those Gryffindors that we Ravens mean business. Now...where is that Quaffle?::

::She soon spotted it being carried by Amy, and quickly put on a burst of speed and flew up to the nearest Bludger. She swung back her arm and hit the Bludger, making the loud CRACK she so dearly loved when the wood hit the Bludger. Elana followed the Bludger's path with her eyes, biting her lip nervously to see if her first hit of the day hit its mark.::

(Gryffindor Seeker)

Not able to believe that he was late for another match Drake sprinted out onto the field. "Damn it Drake...you're doing too much!" He quickly mounted his Firebolt and kicked off from the ground. He hovered there, looking about the pitch. Most of his team was here, and the Ravenclaws. "Am I really late?" He shrugged as those emerald eyes began to scan the pitch for a glint of the elusive Snitch. However the first thing that caught his eye was Elana whacking a bludger in Amy's direction. "Oy! Amy! Watch it!" He had to watch out for his mates...even if he was playing against his future wife afterall. He winked at Elana before taking off to zoom about the Pitch, mouthing "good luck" as he went.

(ravenclaw chaser)

::In Slow motion, lifey watched Lily move. Taking a deep breath and not pausing to think, lifey rushed as fast as her broom could carry her towards the quaffle.::

::She snatched it from the air, and passed it smoothly through the gryffindor's center hoop::


"YEAH!" ::she yelled, excited::

"GO RAVENCLAW" ::She high fived lily::

(ravenclaw chaser)

::Lifey grabbed the quaffle, gave a knowing nod, and headed for the posts::

::Dodging an evil bludger that had been chasing her all game, Lifey tossed the quafffle back to Lily::

(Ravenclaw Beater)

::Grinning, Elana winked back at Boggy. This was going to be an interesting game.::

"Good job ladies!" Elana cried ato her co-captains as they scored. She let out a wild whoop of triumph and flew towards the Gryffindor goals.::

::Once close enough to do damage, she hit a passing Bludger at the Keeper, who if she wasn't mistaken was her Grandmummy Swifters. Whoops, she thought as the Bludger hit Swift, causing her to drop the Quaffle. I didn't mean to Mum, I swear, she thought with an expression of mock shock on her face as she looked at her Mum commentating.::

(Gryffindor Chaser)

::Amy saw Swifty drop the Quaffle, and hesitated for a minute second before crossing past Elana (with her beater bat), and weaving in and out the players before swooping down to pick up the Quaffle from where Swift had dropped it.

She then tucked the ball under her arm and raced to the opposite end of the pitch. Would there be opportunity for another goal?::

(gryffindor chaser)

::prinny flew in next to amy, she was there if she needed to pass to her. then as they approached the ravenclaw goalposts amy swooped downward tossing the ball upward to prinny who went in for the goal...or did she? she quicky passed to amy, throwing the ravens off guard and they scored!::

(gryff seeker)

This certainly would be an interesting game...he was not only playing against his fieance...but one of his best mates, Lily, as well. He raised his brows and smirked as Lily flew past him. But he had better things to worry about right now...like catching the Snitch...or finding it for that matter. He weaved in and out of the Ravenclaw goal posts, emerald eyes scanning for the elusive little ball. "Little bugger." He muttered to himself as he heard the dull, yet loud crack which meant somewhere a Bludger had met its mark. He looked up to see Elana had just whacked Lifey a good one and he did the Sloth Grip Roll as he felw behind the girl, the Bludger whizzing through the airspace which was previously occupied by his chest. "Whew." He rolled himself back over and continued on his quest for the Snitch.

(Gryff chaser)

(why would elana hit lifey? theyre on the same team!)

::Prinny grabbed the quaffle again. this time throwing to amy who was approaching the ravens goalposts...could this be yet another oppurtunity to score?::

(Gryff chaser)

::Amy caught the Quaffle that Aliza threw to her, and weaved in between the Ravenclaw beaters, heading towards the goals.

She then feinted to the right and the Raven's keeper fell for it, swooping to the right as well, before Amy quickly moved to the left and scored. Ten more points for Gryffindor!::

(Gryffindor Beater)

::Amber looked around wondering briefly where WL was. She quickly focused her attention on the quaffle and who had it. She looked around but couldn't seem to see where it was.::

(I'm drugged up leave me alone! *Cries*)

Drake returned to circling the pitch, growing a bit frustrated he had not yet caught sight of the small golden ball. "Bloody hell." Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Amy score and he grinned. "Go Amy!" He zoomed around the goal posts and then high above the pitch, eyes out for the snitch.

(Ravenclaw Chaser)

Stephy quickly ran out into the pitch hoping that she could help the ravenclaws even if there wasnt much time left. Stephy mounted her broom and quickly flew a up and caught the quaffle. Stephy then turned her broom around to the other goal post and made a mad dash for it. as she was speeding across the pitch she threw the quaffle to Lifey hoping that the Gryffindors wouldnt notice.

Lifey caught the quaffle and as stephy looked around she saw everyone with there mouths open because of how late she was.

"Well at least i showed up really late but i showed up" she yelled to the other players. As Stephy said this she saw that Lifey went to the goalposts and threw as hard as she could into the goal just barely passing the keeper.

"Great job" stephy shouted out to her

(sorry drake!)

(gryff chaser)

::swifty threw the ball out to prinny who caught it and flew down to the other end of the pitch. she wondered if the ravenclaw keeper had realised their tactics by now. she signaled to amy and passed to her. this time amy passed stragight back to prinny who scored. the clueless ravenclaw keeper had assumed they were feinting this time...how they loved confusing people::

(Gryffie beater)

::Amber watched as Gryffindor scored yet another goal. She cheered happily and waited to see who would grab the quaffle.::

(gryff chaser)

::prinny once again grabbed the quaffle (i have to play for amy too - lol). "Hit some bludgers amber!" she yelled. then quickly she passed to amy, who went for the goal and...scored! she cheered. gryffindor was on a roll!::

(awwww, poor Drake!)

(Raven Beater)

::The Gryffindors scored and Elana cursed inwardly. Where was the Ravenclaw's second Beater?! If Herb or her replacement had been here, she and Elana could've clobered those Gryffindors before they scored.::

::She sighed and looked at the scoreboard. Since their commentator had gone mysteriously missing, she hadn't seen the score in quite some time. She couldn't make out the exact score from where she was, but it looked like Gryffindor was winning. Well, I'll just have to change that, Elana thought, grinning. She leaned over her broom and put on a burst of speed towards the Ravenclaw goals, where Prinny and Ducky were celebrating with Drake.::

::On her way she slowed as a Bludger raced towards her. She sat up and put both hands on her bat and waited for a moment until it was right on top of her to strike. She watched the path of the Bludger head straight towards one of her sisters, Prinny. Sorry, Prinny dear, she thought as she heard the Bludger make contact. Rough game...::

(Gryff chaser)

::Prinny was almost knocked off her brrom with the force that elana hit the bludger at her. luckily Drake was there to save her from falling. She turned to look at the person who had hit the blugder : who else? Elana…they were supposed to be sisters! Turning around she flew full speed at elana…she would pay…if not now then later::

(Ravenclaw Beater)

::Elana, seeing Prinny speeding towards her, yelled worridly while she sped downwards, still facing Prinny, "Lifey and Lily told us that NOTHING can mess up our game! Not family, not even getting married! And if you haven't noticed, my fiance and I are playing against each other, so imagine how hard it is to be playing as I always do," she finished. She turned and flew towards the far end of the Pitch as fast as she could.::

(Gryffindor Beater)

::Amber watched Prinny and Elana quite amused. However she couldn't get distracted, she had to figure out what to do next... oh what the heck she thought looking back to watch Prinny and Elana.::

"FLY PRINNY FLY!" ::she yelled.::

(gryff chaser)

‘I did notice elana…but you didn’t try to kill him!!”

::prinny carried on flying…but then she thought is it worth risking the game for Gryffindor? She decided against it and pulled her broom to a stop, she could always get her later. Sticking her tongue at elana she looked around for the quaffle::

(Ravenclaw Beater)

"Never kill you Prinny! You're a Chaser and I'm playing against you, so it's my JOB to hit you. And about Drake, he's a Seeker and hasn't seen the Snitch yet, so why would I-" she called before Prinny flew away with her tongue sticking out at Elana. Elana rolled her eyes and focused once more on the game at hand.::

(Gryff cahser)

“Sure…you just don’t love me as much as you love him” ::prinny yelled at elana. Then seeing the quaffle she grabbed it and sped off toward the goalposts. She vented off some off her frustration in a powerful shot that even the keeper was too afraid to try and save. The ball flew through the middle goalpost then turning around she yelled at elana:: “ha!”
