(Gryffindor beater)

::WL flew into the air and immediately got working...she flew as fast as Hedwig (lol cill!) and whacked both bludgers in quick succession at jesse, trying to get paddie an advantage. Thanks to her great aim, one hit is mark and the other just scraped the top of his head. She zoomed off again to get them and hit someone else. It was a great way to vent her frustration...::

(Gryff Beater)

::Duck flew onto the pitch, annoyed that she would only be able to participate in one day of the game.

She flew past WL, and they smacked their bats together, in what had become their 'beater salute'.

She saw a bludger heading her way, having just veered into Jesse, and she hit it back towards him. She wasn't going to be taking any chances this game. They needed to win!::

(gryffindor beater)

::WL grins at duck as she flies past and then gets the second bludger back that had flown towards rip. She whacks it away towards snape, agreeing with duck's philosophy that they did indeed have to win.::

"Go Gryffindor!!!! We CAN win this!!!!!!"

(G Keeper)

::Swift stumbled dreamily onto the pitch, humming 'In the Castle' quietly to herself. She was snapped out of her reverie by the Beater's smashing of bats, and she glared up at the two. Recoiling at the look on WL's face, Swift flew up into the air, the breeze blowing back her long black hair, and set her position in front of the Gryffindor goalposts.

The Quaffle was in Gryffindor possession, and Swift watched as Stealthie zoomed past her. She smiled sweetly at him, knowing that Gryffindor would crush Slytherin like ants in a field.::

(Gryff beater)

::Duck sees WL hitting the second bludger towards Snape, and smiled. She wondered where the rest of the team were...and looked around for them, suddenly spying swift guarding the hoops.

She then flew over to WL, and they performed the dopplebeater defence with one of the bludgers that had come back from hitting Jesse. They hit it with a lot of force towards Stealth, who had just come into the posession of the quaffle. He dropped the quaffle into the waiting arms of rip, who had just come zooming onto the pitch.::

(G seeker)

::Pad goes fly out onto the pitch. He was grassping his firebolt with two hands and looking for the snitch all he could see...was a bludger coming right at him!::

(Gryff beater)

::Duck sees the beater heading directly for Padfoot, and swoops over, hitting it out the way and towards a slytherin player::

"Watch out Padfoot!"

(Gryffindor Chaser)

::Rip caught the quaffle that stealthy had dropped, and did a quick loop-de-loop in celebration. She was upset that she could only play in one day of the match.

She flew around with the quaffle for a bit, before passing it to Cheery.::

(SLYTHERIN BEATER)

::Snape strides onto the pitch and quickly mounts his broom, his bad held tightly as he double circled around the pitch. He would make sure that this match would be a slytherin match!
He suddenly caught sight of the bludger and leant forwards on his broom, heading straight for it with immense speed. Hitting it head on with his bat towards The gryffindor chaser...::

(Gryff beater)

::Duck saw Snape hit a bludger towards Rip, and quickly flew in her direction, and was able to hit it out of the way just in time. The bludger just missed Rip...though grazed her cheek.

"Be more careful Rip!" ::Duck said, as she continued to fly on::

(Slytherin Seeker)

~Our devilishly handsome, agile, couragous, heroic, hot, drop dead sexy, smart, clever, cunning, Slytherin Seeker, Fated graces the roaring crowd with his awesome presence.~

~~ Being the second Slytherin to arrive, he steps out onto the Pitch. He brandishes a new, sparkly black and green broom. A Nimbus 2006. Ah but he isn't one to brag, as he is merely just the seeker who caught the snitch 2 times in a row.He smirks seeing that the other seeker is none other than Pad. Off the pitch, they are the best of friends but on the pitch, Fated knows they are rivals as well as opponents. ~

~He shifts his gaze to the other gryffindor players, recognizing most of them quite well. He still feels the brunt from last game but he feels he is able to handle this game as well. After all, he isn't about to lose to Gryffindor.~

~He mounts his broom, his fingers curl around the neck of it. He kicks up from the ground and soars up into the air. He knows that this will be a rough game and competing against pad for the snitch is going to be rough. He's gonna have to pull out all of his tricks on this one. This game he hopes that the Slytherins on his team will work together.~
~After that final thought, our handsome Slytherin Seeker zooms off in search of the snitch~

(G Keeper)

::Swift caught sight of Jesse's oh-so-grande entrance, and sighed loudly. She was near to fed up of his BIGHEADEDNESS, which he never seemed to want to acknowledge.

"Oi! Jesse!! Start admiring yourself, 'cause you won't be so happy after we thrash you!" Swift smirked, determined to make Jesse's ego go down... somewhat.

She began circling the posts, keeping a trained eye on the Quaffle as it was passed between Chasers.::

(Slytherin Seeker)

~With a smirk, Fated flashes swifty a cocky grin and wink as he flys by her~ He stops briefly just a couple broom lengths in front of her.~

"You know you can't stop admiring me, Lisa. It's okay. Once I catch the snitch and Slytherin crushes Gryffindor, I'll make sure to let you wash my laundry, fluff my pillows, and adore me as much as you want. But for now, you just have to settle for seeing glimpses of me on the field." ~Watching her roll her eyes and sigh in frustration, he chuckles to himself and continues on his way after the snitch that has suddenly shown its self-right over ducky's head.~ As it flies away Fated flies off after it~

(Slytherin beater)

::Jessica ran out on the field she was so not happy she had washed her cheerleading outfit so much that it is now begining to shrink and fits her way to snuggly for her liking. She mounts her broom and vrooms over to Lisa (swifty)::

"Lisa Lisa lisa... there is only one person that can successfully deflait his ego...me of coarse.. its to bad for you I think his over confidence is cute." *she smirks

::She looks for a bludger and spots one heading toawards Jesse (again) who had his back turned. She zoomed over towards where he was and swung the back hitting it successully but ramming straight into Jesse and falling off her broom::

(G seeker)

::Pad see's Fated is right behind him. The snitch dived down. Then it flew up. Pad went up but Pad thinks Fated crashed.But all he see's is Fated falling off his broom. Pad goes back down towards Fated and grabbed Fated's coller he then put Fated back on his broom and went shirching forarwd to go look for the snitch::

(Slytherin Chaser)

Stealth joins the group of Slytherin players around the somewhat confused Swifty. He had an idea.... Yes...

The little group huddled around the Gryffindor goal was starting to attract even more attention. A quick scan of the arena showed that there appeared to be just the one Gryffindor chaser, Rip, on duty. She had the quaffle but was paying more attention to the huddle around the Gryffindor hoops.

Stealth pulled his Firebolt away from the huddle and downwards, looping around and then pulling steeply up and accelerating, slamming - by accident, of course - into Rip who, unfortunately dropped the quaffle. Making up for his earlier clumsiness, Stealth snathed up the quaffle and shot off towards the Gryffindor hoops, arrowing towards the huddle of his fellow Slytherins, screaming. Poor Swifty was unsighted. At the very last moment, the huddle broke up and allowed Stealth to shoot straight at the left hoop, scoring for Slytherin!

(Slytherin seeker)


~~As he is falling, from colliding with jess he is suddenly grabbed and pulled back up by Pad. Feeling grateful, he says "Thanks" But then sees Jess is still falling~


~With his awesomely fast reflexes, he grabs jess's hand as he holds onto his broom with his legs squeezing it tightly as the girl dangles there.~

"Hang on, Jess. I've got you." He says, but suddenly that little gold ball flutters by and his perifial vision picks it up. He knoww he could grab it as it is RIGHT THERE! But he'd have to let go of jess....what is he gonna do?

Suddenly, he opens his hand, and lets go of jess as he makes a grab for the snitch. Unfortnately he jusssssst misses it and it flies away.

~He then swoops down to catch jess, who is furious that he had let her go to try to catch the snitch.
As he catches her and carries her back to his broom, she glares at him.~

~He knoww she is mad, but he can't stop to play hero this time. He is determind to stop pad from getting the snitch...at ANY cost...He flies away quickly hoping to find the gold ball again~

(Slytherin beater)

"see if I ever try to save your arse again stupid prick dropping me for the snitch" she grumbels and flys towards a bludger doing the spiral push with all her might towards Paddy.. pretending it was Jesse

(G seeker)

::Pad goes flying towards the snitch he puts his hand out. THen his Firebolt started to dance like mad. How could something go wrong with a FIREBOLT? It had to be some one in the stands. He then slipped off his broom. But he used his ood reflexis to grab ontp the broom handle but only with one hand.

"Shaathchass" He said in Parciltoung::

(Shaathchass=A little help)

(Slytherin Seeker)

~Quite familiar with the snake language, Fated turns to see that Pad is in trouble danginling by one hand from his broom. He whips around and flies over to him.~

"Hang on!" he says as he reaches down and starts pulling him up. He pulls him back onto his broom.

He then says "Shhhassste Hisssasss" to him. Then he turns and flies back on his search for the snitch.~



(Shhhassste Hisssasss-Be more careful next time)

(slytherin beater)

::Jess zooms over to Chips (cheery) where a bludger is and hits it towards snape so that he can hit it towards swifty who is closer to him::
::she looks over to Jesse and Pad::

"oh he will save him without almost letting him die!"

::Snape recieves the bludger from romance easily and hits it straight into the air before letting it fall back down to him and backhands it straight towards Swift. The power is amazing as the bludger continues towards her and Snape follows it ready to strike again on rebound!

(G Keeper)

::With another growl of frustration, Swift took hold of the Quaffle, throwing it as hard as she could towards Moony, who caught it and sped off towards the other end of the pitch. Today was not a good day for Swift, and she was threatening to vent her anger at anyone and anything. She spotted a bludger coming her way, and with Ducky gone, her replacement not yet on the pitch, and WL off hitting the other bludger towards Moonlight, all Swift could do was... well, jump.

With precise agility and accurate timing, Swift pushed herself off her broom, watched as the bludger zoomed between her and the broom. She landed safely back onto it, relieved that she managed to escape what would have been a nasty bruise.::

(slytherin beater)

::winks at snape and calls out::

"Thanks snape for the help there!"

(G seeker)

::"Shaashh ahshssss aasshshsh!!" Pad shouts to Fated as he goes hurdiling upward::

(Shaashh ahshssss aasshshsh= The snitch is over there, I ow you that much)

(Slytherin Seeker)

"Sessss Ahsshesshss! Hissessahs aashhhsss" ~Fated shouts to Pad as he spirals in from the left and zig zags upward~

(Sessss Ahsshesshss! Hissessahs aashhhsss-I appreciate it. Let's go after it." )

(G seeker)

::shash!" Pad says::

(shash=ok)

::Jess looks over to Sleathy and wonders if he can cause a diversion for her::

(G beater)

::Unfortunately, no diversion can be caused as WL whacks the bludger again at stealth and then does a dribble with the other bludger to whack it at stealth again. Both bludgers hit their mark and swift was left to save the quaffle that sailed out of stealth's hands!::

(Gryffindor sub for ducky who is beater)

::skuldandy climbed on her broom and took off to the quidditch game. She was late. She entered and saw swifty and all the other gryffindor players playing (duh that's what they're suppose to do!...)::

"I'm so sorry guys, really! My clock didn't ring. But now I'm here to play! So, let's win this game!"

she yelled to her teammates.

::she flew upwoards and stopped there, trying to understand how was the game going on so far::

(SLYTHERIN BEATER)

::Snape tails the bludger until he is just above it. Hitting it towards the ground as hard as he could, he utters the words;

"proleće zemlja"

::Which he knew to be 'Spring Ground' in serbian, a spell to cause the ground to become springy. It worked! As soon as the bludger hit the ground it shot up with such force straight towards Waterlily, hoping it would stop her hitting bludgers towards the rest of the team!::

(G Beater)

::WL does the beater's salute with Skully and hears a whoosh behind her. A bludger just bounced! She shrugged nonchalently and took a whack at the bludger with skully using the dopplebeater defence and hit it towards the quaffle that was being passed around between slytherins now. The quaffle landed in moony's hands who zoomed away at once!

It would take more than a bouncing bludger to take WL out...especially when she decided she wasn't going anywhere!::

(gryffindor sub, beater)

::skuldandy did the dopplebeater defence with WL and looked as moony took the quaffle to the slytherin hoops... she looked around, no sign of the other bludger::

"hum... what are the scores?"

she asked to WL

(Slytherin Seeker)

~The wind blows through his hair as he stops in midair to survey the scene. He tries to get an idea of where he should search for the snitch, taking care to keep an eye out for either of the bludgers which could become very problematic should they veer his way.
Turning his piercing gaze towards his own team mates, he sees something. A twinkling of gold just above the right ring. Not too far away. But it seems that Pad has also spotted it as well. *I can't let him get it* He thinks as he leans forward and zooms towards the snitch.
~He knows that he can't give an inch, even if the seeker on the Gryffindor team is his best friend. He speeds up, the wind whipping back his blond hair, the blistering sunlight shining down upon him. He can feel that this will be close. He tears his gaze from the snitch to guage the distance in which pad is closing in. Fated leans down a bit more to stop the wind currents from slowing him down for he is indeed on a mission. ~

(SLYTHERIN BEATER)

::Snape frowned. Waterlily was too quick, he would have to use some more of the Slytherin moves to counter against the Gryffindor team.

He flew around the pitch until he caught sight of Romance. Signilling with a wink , He and romance performed the 'Doubleback dopplebeater defence' a mixture of the two specialised moves, giving force behind their double backhanded hit. The bludger stormed straight at the two gryffindor beaters, piercing the wind with its speed and causing them to move out of the way.

Snape looped the loop and came down the other side of the path of the bludger, and whilst upside down, performed the turvey backhander on the oncoming bludger and hit it right back towards the Gryffindor beaters, their backs turned to the oncoming bludger...::

(SLytherin beater)

::Jess watched as the bludgers hit there targets but the force of going against the wind made it so that the hits were not hard::

(Slytherin beater)

::Snape followed the the bludger he had just sent and double hit them for extra power just before they rached their target...::

(Slytherin Chaser)

Snarling with frustration, Stealth rushes back to the pitch, mounts his Firebolt and kicks off. Circling and rising rapidly, he makes a quick assessment of the situation.

Gryffindor seem to be in a little disarray... But Pad seems to be after the snitch, Fated hard on his heels. OK, so... First, the interfernce play promised to Fated.

Stealth aims at Pad and accelerates towards him at blistering speed. As the snitch was heading this way, it is relatively easy to intercept the Gryffindor seeker, which Stealth does with, er, maximum assertiveness. Pad is knocked off course, but manages to stay on his broom. Pad yells in protest, but Stealth claims that he is playing by the 'US rules' and that off the ball plays are allowed.

Stealth then loops past Fated, exchanging a salute with the Slytherin seeker, and dives down towards Skul and WaterLily, who look as if they are hatching some nasty plot against Moonie, who has the quaffle and is heading towards the Gryffindor hoops.

He dives and forces his way between the Gryffindor beaters, bringing an end to their conversation, then loops around behind the Gryffindor hoops. Swifty's attention is fully occupied by Moonie.....

"I hope you forgive me for this, Swifty...."

Stealth pops out from behind the Gryffindor hoops, swerves under Swifty and then up behind her. He has the hem of her quidditch cloak in his hand. He flips it up and over her face, just as Moonie throws the quaffle.

Yes, straight through the right hand hoop, another 10 points for Slytherin!

(G Keeper)

::Swift was fully focused on the Quaffle; so focused, that she didn't see the mean and evil scummy Slytherin sneaking up behind her. She felt a slight tug on her cloak, and before she could turn around, had it flicked over head. There was just enough time for her to untangle herself from the cloak when she heard Etta shouting out that Slytherin had scored... due, in Swift's opinion, to some very dirty trick of theirs.

She whipped her head to see Stealth behind her, laughing and doubled over on his broom.

So that's how you want to play, eh...

She quickly zoomed over to his left, where the top of a goalpost was within whacking distance of Stealth's left knee. Now, the goalposts weren't all that rigid, and if one had enough strength, one could bend one back, and it would spring forward. With much force, of course.

And that's what Swift did. Satisfied with her action, she smirked gladly as Stealth shouted out in pain, his already weakened knee suffering more than it was. Leaving her 'brother' to his own devices, Swift flew back to the front of the posts, this time more alert for more things thatn the Quaffle.::

(Slytherin Chaser)

The whippy strut holding the hoop smashes into Stealth's already bludgered left knee. Searing agony lances up his left leg and he loses all concentration. Without control, his Firebolt plummets, broom and rider smashing down into the damp turf.

Stealth tries to roll away from the broom and get up. He makes a feeble attempt and then the world turns grey....

(slytherin chaser)

::looks dwon at the fallen player. then takes off after the quaffle....::

(G Keeper)

::Swift was torn: help Stealthie (after so accidentally hitting him- unintentionally, of course), or protect the posts? The Quaffle was coming her way, and she needed to act, and fast. When a Slytherin chaser threw it, she hit it away with her broom's tail towards Moony, who passed it to Cheery.

"Keep it going, and don't let it out of your possession!" she shouted to them.

She dived down towards Stealth, all thoughts of the posts gone from her mind. His left leg was at a pretty odd angle, and there was nothing much she could do about it... except... "Ferula!" she whispered, her wand concealed carefully inside her cloak. A wooden splint appeared, attaching itself to Stealthie's leg, straightening out his knee. Thankful for his unconciousness, Swift whispered "Demienervate!" and watched with satisfaction as he half opened his eyes. Glad that he would be all right, she grabbed her broom and flew back up to the goalposts.::

(slytherins chaser)

:chick with out second thought, quckly races over to cheery....tackles her on her broom and takes the quaffel. As if on intinct goes toward the Gryffindor post...:

(G Beater)

::WL rubs her side annoyed slightly but the bludger hadn't hit that much...it was mainly from the experimentation she had been doing in the charms classroom...she had done the Sloth grip roll on the other bludger and the whacked it towards chick, making her drop the quaffle into gryffindor's hands.

She also caught up with the other bludger and, with fire gleaming determinedly in her eyes, she does a complicated batting movement called the Confundus Kookie and sent her offending bludger, one that had hit her, right at snape. Unfortunately for him, it moved in different directions, dodging his bat just like the snitch and finally floats behind him momentarily and gives him a great POW on the back of his head.

WL cringed. She knew that would hurt and that Snape was most likely unconcious or very very very hurt. She flew over to him and cast a painkiller charm that would last for a couple of hours, meanwhile telling him sharply, "Don't mess with me. I'm the one who invented it and the Kookie can't be done the same twice. I have too many tricks up my sleeve. What else would you expect from a joker, like me?!"

She flashed him a cheeky grin and a warning wave of her bat and flew off to get the bludgers under control::

(SLYTHERIN BEATER)

::Snape, dazed and slightly sore, narrowed his eyes at waterlilly. He was glad that she had given him a strong painkiller very quickly, but now he knew she meant buisiness.
Grabbing his broom, he quickly took flight and followed Waterlily towards the bluders. If she can play dirty, then so could he, after all, he was a slytherin!

Suddenly, the bludger came towards him. Now was his chance. He would have to play the single swipe snake move. Catching the bludger, he batted it upon his bat, not allowing it to move to far from him as he weaved himself through the players before back handidly hitting the bludger through his legs and stright back towards Waterlily. It was a direct hit, and with that power, it was sure to knock waterlily off of her broom giving slytherins new chasers time to get towards the hoops with that quaffle::

(G beater)

::WL saw the bludger coming right in front of her and remembered her physics lessons from her youth.::

(hmm. I need to slow it down to get control of it. This needs a great deal of concentration)

::She held her bat up and stopped in mid-air until the bludger was inches away. Suddenly, she starts to reverse with the bludger JUST in contact with the bat. As she move backwards at the nearly the same speed as the bludger, she takes the power out of it and then furiously hits it again at the Quaffle, knocking it into cheery's hands.

She would name that move, the Momentum Minimiser. She wiped the sweat away from her forehead and glared at snape.

(So...he was playing dirty! Well, let him. If he fouls then it's slytherin's loss!)

She smirked as Gryffindor was awarded a penalty for some strange reason. She turned away and vowed to keep an eye on him.::

(Slytherin Seeker)

~Fated stops as he has now lost sight of the snitch. He looks around then soars up higher above the game and looks down, his eyes quickly scanning over the goings on. He sees Pad on the other side, looking around. It's clear that he too can't find the snitch. Fated wipes the beads of sweat from his brow and lets out a frustrated sigh. For now...the snitch has disappeared~~

(Slytherin Chaser)

Stealth's eyes flutter open and, for a moment, he thinks he sees Swifty bending over him with a look of concern in her eyes - but that can't be right. He shuts his eyes and shakes his head. When he opens them again, there is no sign of the Gryffindor Keeper.

He rolls onto his side, prepared to crawl away and look for a wizard's aid kit. He looks down at his beleaguered knee and is surpirsed to see that a rather neat little splint hads been bound to it. It must have been Swifty!

The pain is still intense but bearable. He grabs his trusty Firebolt, mounts it somewhat awkwardly and lkicks off. A quick assessment shows him that Fated and Pad are circling warily, obviously seeking the snitch, there is a bludger battle going on between WaterLily and Snape, and Chick has the quaffle and is heading towards the Gryffindor hoops, where Swifty is waiting. Moonie is loitering behind teheGryffindor hoops as if she is stalking Swifty.. Stealth catches her eye and beckons her over....

"Hey, Moonie, we are going to haver to give Chick a hand here. She won't be able to score unassisted, Swifty is way too good a keeper to allow that...We'll use the Tricky Triangle!"

Nodding her undserstanding, Moonie flies off towards Chick. Stealth follows her and they take up station around Chick forming two points of a triangle, Chick being the third. They then start to revolve around her forming a very distracting pattern. They make throwing movements as if tossing the quaffle to each other, whereas in fact the quaffle stays with Chick.

As they near the Gryffindor hoops, Stealth takes a moment to glance around... The Gryffindor beaters are still invoilved in some sort of conflict with Snape. As he watches, their chasers join is as well. Poor old Sev....

It looks as if Swifty is not being fooled by the false plays... As they get closer and closer to the Gryffindor goals the dimensions of the traingle get wilder and wilder.... Chick pulls her hand back to throw the quaffle at the right hoop - Swifty lunges to protect it - but Chick does not throw it, but lets it roll out the back of her hand, where it is scooped up by Stealth as he suddenly pulls his Firebolt across the hoops, tossing the quaffle to Moonie who powers it straight through the left hoop. Yes! Teamwork pays off yet again and not a single questionable manoeuvre!

(Gryffindor Beater)

::WL grunts in frustration as she swings at a bludger. Unfortunately, it only hits the Slythering chaser too late. WL frowns as the quaffle was not deterred but is consoled by the fact that Slytherin are one Chaser down temporarily.

She rolls her bat menacingly in her hand...just waiting for anyone to get in her way. She had a bludger controlled just in front of her to aim at anyone.

She sees stealthie coming in front of her and immediately whacks it to him.

After her skirmishes with snape, she has seen red and anyone in her path would most probably get badly bruised.

GRRRR!!!!

Suddenly, from a warning glance from swifty, she takes several calm breaths and continues her job as beater, protecting pad from getting hit from the other rogue bludger and hitting it towards Jesse instead.::
