[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat woke up and stretched as she rose in way that reminded her of her old cat Squeaks, whom she referred to as her ‘yoga kitty’. Today was her second game this term and her first as captain of the team. She had a feeling that this game would go better than the last. She had organized a set team and informed everyone of the game, so hopefully there would be no mishaps.

She sat up and went to her dresser. She pulled out her Slytherin green quidditch uniform. She really did love this uniform better than the normal black robes they had to wear to classes. I mean yes they did have the crest and some green, but the quidditch uniform was practically all green and much more appealing to the green loving person she was.

Afterwards she put two ponytails in her hair – which yes, she knew they were a tad girly, but her hair was to short to put in a single pony tail – and then magically spelled her hair to stay put so she didn’t have to worry about her hair causing her to miss that tiny little snitch. She did after all have no bangs and her hair tended to fall in her face if she didn’t have it up and that just wouldn’t be helpful.

After she was done getting prepared she realized she was the only one up. She sighed and went over to Kaylee’s bed that just happened to be closest to hers. “Wakey, wakey Kaylee,” she called, but the girl didn’t seem to be listening. She began pushing her friend’s back as she yelled, "Get up! Get out of bed! We have a match today! You don't want to be late yet again do you?"

After she was sure her friend was up – which she knew due to the fact that she had pushed Kay out of bed – she ran out of the room with her broom and uniform to go wake the other members of the team. She had left Gemma asleep in the room, but that was only because she figured that Kay would wake her.

She stopped at the closet dorm, which had one of the games beaters and chasers. She knocked on the door, hoping to be loud enough to wake them if they were still asleep, and shouted, “Ziggy!! Jamoki!! Rise and shine, its quidditch time!!” When she heard movement inside she went to the next dorm and repeated the same thing for Violet and Shadow.

After the team was awake – well when the dorms had at least someone awake to yell for the others to get up – she made her way to the Slytherin Locker Rooms where she quickly began putting on her uniform and safety gear.

(Slytherin Chaser)

It had been Jamoki’s second match for the term. Last game wasn’t that good due to it was his first. But this match he would be a lot different. It had been hard for him to sleep last night when cat had told him she was putting him in this game as well. But he had been able to go into a deep sleep last night. Then not having an alarm or anything he didn’t wake up for the match. But then there was a loud knocking on the dorm room door and Jamoki woke up just like that and jumped out of bed.

Then the person knocking on it had yelled for him and Ziggy to wake up. Ziggy was a Beater, and Jamoki would be a Chaser this game. Jamoki had rubbed the sleepy out of his eyes before he did anything. Then he walked over to Ziggy’s bed as she seemed not to move due to cat’s noise. He had gently moved her and said something.

“Ziggy it is time to get up. We have a match with Hufflepuff.”, he said.

He then stopped trying to wake her up. She still had been a sleep. He then tried tickling and she started to move so he thought she would wake up now. So he stopped tickling and went to his trunk. He looked for his Slytherin Quidditch uniforms. He found them and pulled them out. He loved the green of them. Much better than the black he had to wear weekly for classes.

He then changed into his Uniform and grabbed his broom. He started to head for the door, but then he stopped and looked back. Ziggy had still been in her bed then he had got ready to yell.

“Wake you Ziggy. Quidditch Time.”, He yelled to her.

Then he walked out of the door and down through the common room to the Quidditch Pitch. There had been several others walking through the halls this morning on a weekend. Not many people liked to get up early on a weekend day. But for Quidditch players they had to.

Once out side Jamoki squinted his eyes because house bright the sun was. Was he could he opened his eyes fully and looked around while walking to the pitch. It had been a nice day out side. The wind was softly blowing giving it a nice breeze so they wouldn’t burn during the match.

While walking down the path to the pitch Jamoki just smiled as he looked around. He had loved it here at Hogwarts. He didn’t think there could be a better magic school around. Now that he was to the pitch he walked into the Slytherin Locker Room.

Once in he was in he seen the team‘s captain Cat.

“Hello Cat.”, he said to her.

He had walked toward the entrance to the pitch from the locker room.

“You ready for the match, Cat?”, he asked her.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Rolling over to get back into a comfortable position to fall back to sleep nicely Kaylee noticed someones hands on her back forcing her out of bed. Before she could even wake up enough to fully realize what was going on she hit the floor of her dorm with a resounding Thunk. The only thing she heard was Cat yelling, "Get up! Get out of bed! We have a match today! You don't want to be late yet again do you?"

Cursing under her breath she picked herself up just in time to see Cat running from the room with her broom in hand. "Well you didn't have to push me, a nice shake would have worked just fine." She mumbled to herself as she started to get ready.

In the mirror she pulled her long black and blond hair back and braided it into two long pigtails. Picking up her wand she whispered a spell that would keep her hair in place. As she started to pull clothes out of her dresser a brilliant idea struck her, "Maybe I can just play the match in my pajamas. I will just throw my quidditch uniform over the top. I'm sure no one will mind my awesome batman footie pajamas, after all they do rock." Giggling to herself she decided this was a most excellent course of action.

Looking around the room she noticed Gemma still tucked in and sleeping happily in her bed, "I wonder why she gets to sleep in and I get the rude awakening? Unless Cat left that up to me." Still giggling she ran over to Gemmas bed silently and leaned her Nimbus 2001 lightly on her bed post. Crawling up on Gemmas bed with out her waking up wasn't too hard as Gemma generally slept like a rock. Kaylee positioned herself directly over the top of Gemma.

"Wake up Gemma!!! Today is the match against the Huffies, and you don't want to be late!!!" Kaylee screamed as she jumped up and down on Gemmas bed. Before Gemma even had a chance to react Kaylee jumped off her bed, grabbed her uniform and broom and began running through the halls towards the pitch.

On her way out she received quite a few strange looks, probably because of her pajamas, but she didn't care. She even received a couple of hoots and hollers, to those she just smiled giggled and kept up her steady pace. Once she made it to the Slytherin locker room she stopped for a second to catch her breath and then proceeded to put on her uniform and all of her safety equipment.

Once she had strapped all of the safety equipment on she pulled her robes on and finally noticed the two other Slytherins already in the locker room. "Good morning Jamoki and thanks for the wonderful wake up Cat." As she said this she smiled towards Jamoki and then walked over and nearly tackled Cat in a hug. "Next time just splash some water on me, then I wont have a bruise on my head." As she finished she winked at Cat and then pointed to her pajamas that were sticking out from her uniform.

"Look I decided to add some flair to my uniform today - I hope you don't mind Cat. Well plus I was to lazy to change." While she said this she walked over and grabbed her broom and started to make her way towards the entrance to the pitch.

[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat got her uniform on and started putting on the safety gear. She hoped someone would show up soon. She really didn’t want to end up yelling at the team members because they didn’t show. Luckily though Jamoki walked into the locker room and she felt a bit relieved. She greeted him with a smile and a nod. “Hey there.” She replied. “Oh I am about as ready as I can be I suppose. Bit nervous since it’s my first day as captain.”

Cat had just finished putting on safety gear when Kay arrived. The chaser seemed out of breathe, probably from running all the way there. She smiled in amusement before getting tackled in a hug. Cat chuckled to herself. “Oh you liked the wakeup?” She grinned. “Maybe that bruise will teach you to get an alarm clock.”

She saw Kay point to something and noticed Kay’s outfit. What was she wearing? Were those her pajamas? Cat put her face in her hands shaking them in disbelief. Kay was really wearing her Batman pajamas to the game. Cat held in her laughter as she turned back to Kay. “You really are one of a kind. You lazy sod.”

She shook her head again smiling to herself at how odd her friend could be. ‘That’s Kay for you,’ she thought to herself, ‘doing the nuttiest thing you can imagine.’

She moved over to the entrance to the pitch and turned back to look at her teammates. “Okay guys, some of the team is going to be late today due to various reasons,” Cat announced to the two that were there already. “Now just because they aren’t here yet doesn’t mean we shouldn’t still try our hardest. Now let’s have fun game and let’s show those Badgers what we are made of.” She gave them a big smile and turned to the entrance. “Let’s go team.”

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki smiled at Cat as she said she was ready to play the badgers. He had never been to a match with cat as the captain. Then he heard her say it was her first time as captain.

“You will do good as captain Cat. Nothing to fear.”

Then Jamoki looked around as someone else had entered. It was his sis Kay. She seemed to be out of breath. Then he looked at what she was wearing before she huggletackled cat. He busted out laughing. She had on batman pajamas. She also had slippers.

“Wow sis. Nice pajamas.”

Once cat was up she told Kay something he didn’t pay any attention to. Then she had walked to the entrance to the pitch and gave us a little speech. He nodded in reply. Then he started to head out onto the Pitch with cat.

“Come on sis. Lets go.”

[Slytherin Chaser]

Standing there at the entrance Kaylee zoned out for a minute and barely registered that Cat has just called her a lazy sod. As she zoned out the other two walked out and made their way out on to the pitch, while Kaylee just continued to stand there like she'd just lost her marbles.

Once she snapped out of it she ran up next to Cat and half giggling said, "I am not a lazy sod, well not entirely. I'm an innovator, and I like to be different - and there's nothing wrong with that." Cat just shook her head, her typical response to one of Kay's many tirades. Kaylee just giggled again and took off skipping.

"You know I think this is the first time I've been one of the first players on the field. This is rather exciting. Speaking of players, where in the world is Gemma? I jumped all over her before running out of the room, she should be awake and on her way by now." Kaylee finished as she took another glance back at the entrance to the locker room.

"Oh well, if she doesn't show up soon that means I get to give her special wake ups for the next month." Kaylee said out loud mostly to herself as she mounted her trusty Nimbus 2001. "Okay gadget lets have a good game." She whispered to her broom as she began to mount and prepare to kick off.

"I say we get in the air and get the show on the road, maybe we can practice some new tricks until the huffies get here." Kaylee yelled back towards Cat and Jamoki as she gave herself a hard push off.

Before anyone even had a chance to reply she was up in the air zooming around practicing what she liked to call The Zoom-Zoom. This was her fun little trick where she'd zoom back and forth quickly as she did all sorts of spins and flips. Doing her special trick she was leaning left and then right and then suddenly pulling hard upwards causing her to do a completely vertical 180 in mid air. Then she evened out and continued leaning hard left and hard right causing her to go zooming back and forth across the pitch. This trick always made her dizzy, and slightly disoriented but she didn't care she loved it anyways. Plus the fact that it was also very disorienting for the opposing team members was never a bad thing either.

(Slytherin Keeper)
Violet had been awaken that morning. Looking at her alram cook, she jumped up. "I over slept!" She yelled, looking for her clothes. Grabbing all her clothes, she started putting on her Keepers Robes. "I will have to put them on on the way there." She mumbled and started running out of the room with her firebolt in her hand. "Cat is going to kill me for being late." She said to herself, putting on her gloves. She stepped on the front steps, looking to see if anyone was at the pitch. Seeing some of the team mates, she ran out there and put her shoes on at the same time. Falling down, she looked at her broom. "I'm so late. Cat is going to kill me. Why today? Why!?" She yelled and started putting her shoes on while sitting on the ground. Huffing, she stood up and ran out to the pitch.

"Cat dont kill me!" Violet begged as she go to the pitch. "I did not mean to be late!"

[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat smiled at Jamoki and nodded. She hoped he was right. She really didn’t want to turn out to be a horrible captain. Who would? She just hoped this game would go smoothly with no drama or confusion.

Cat noticed Kay shut down for a bit and started heading to the pitch with Jamoki, hoping she’d turn back on soon. Luckily she did and ran back up to Cat. She chuckled at her comment and replied, “You are a lazy sod and you know it. No if ands are buts about it. But if it makes you happy you are an awesome lazy sod.”

Cat sighed and nodded. “She should be awake. I wonder where she is. If she doesn’t show up soon I will make her do extra laps around the Pitch during practice. Unless of course it wasn’t her fault and some Hufflepuffs were being evil and locked her in a broom closet to try and make us lose.” Cat glared at the air at the though. Yes it was a bit of a random theory that was most likely wrong, but it could be true.

Cat nodded. “Yes we should get a bit of extra practice in before the referee shows up.” She swung her leg over her broom and kicked off. It was odd. Normally Cat hated heights and a quidditch game got her pretty high in the air, anywhere from 10 to 120 feet in the air, but somehow she could always manage. Maybe the thrill of the game made her fear disappear. Or maybe it was the fact she had more control over a broom than a roller coaster. It was possibly a combination.

She noticed someone enter the pitch running. It was Violet, the team Keeper. “It’s okay Violet. The game hasn’t even started.”

She smiled and then began doing loops in the air as practice.

[Slytherin Beater]

Bella haistily ran towards the pitch, pulling her robes on as she ran. Bella hoped that she wouldnt be in too much trouble for being late as it was most definatly not her fault. Bella had spent the last 2 hours turning their dorm and common room upsidown looking for her beaters bat before realising that it was in her hand. Okay so it was entirely her fault.

As Bella rushed onto the pitch, she was pleased to see that so far, no one from hufflepuf had turned up. ''Hey guys!'', Bella greeted her team mates, ''Sorry I'm late but i got .....caught up with somthing''. Bella decided that some things were bes left unsaid. ''So are we gonna warm up?''

(Slytherin Beater)

When Cat had woken her that morning, Shadow yawned and stretched wolfishly before getting up and pulling her Quidditch kit on. Grabbing her new beater's bat and firebolt, she sprinted down to the pitch.
"Hey you lot!" She shouted as she mounted her broom, flying upwards while swinging her bat around. She flew over to Bella, a slightly evil smile on her face.
"Ready to do some damage?" She asked sweetly.

Shadow decided to start warming up and began to rotate her arms with the bat, just as her brother had shown her when he had taught her how to sword fight.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma was in bed, sleeping like a rock as she had stayed awake rather long the night before. Now she was happily dreaming of sugary candy and her world journey with Kay and Cat when all of a sudden the bed started to shake and she heard a scary loud noise. Not figuring it out completely, she guessed it was probably one of the usual catastrophies occuring in her dreams so she turned around to continue sleeping once it stopped. All of a sudden, the setting of her dream changed and she now saw a Quidditch Pitch full of black and yellow -

"Oh nooo, it's the Hufflepuff game, I must get there now, noooo!"

She had woken up with a start and screamed across the room, seeing that both Cat and Kay were no longer there. The strange noise she had heard in her dream had probably been Kay's voice as she had tried waking her up! Not caring to lock at her alarm clock to see how late she actually was, Gemma ran over to her trunk to get her lovely green Quidditch robes out of it and also to get out some clothes she could wear underneath them. Putting the latter on while she brushed her teeth, she couldn't help but swear silently at how at of all the days, she had to wake up late today. She brushed her hair and put it up into a wild bun, not caring whether she looked horrid. She was already out of the common room and halfway to the pitch when she noticed she had left her broom behind, so she hurried back and grabbed it, at the same time stuffing as many sweets as she could into her pockets to avoid sugar deprivation during the match. Then she made her way to the pitch once more as fast as she could, hoping Cat wouldn't be too mad at her and also hoping the game hadn't yet started.

When she reached the locker rooms she threw on her Quidditch gear, speeding up even more as she saw nobody was left in there. As she ran onto the pitch and mounted her broom without even standing still for a second, she was relieved that there were in fact no Huffies present so far. Flying over to Cat to apologize for the delay, she felt the excitement of flying go through her and enjoyed being back on the team to go for the win. In the stands, she could hear her fellow Slytherins who had already arrived cheering for the team, and as a huge grin spread across her face she hoped that Cat wouldn't feel provoked by that.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Coming to a suddenly halt from doing her trick, Kaylee giggled for a second as she laid down on her broom giving her head time to get itself back together. As soon as the world stopped spinning she sat back up and looked around to see that still no one from the Hufflepuff team had made their way to the pitch yet.

"Where are those lazy sods? I can't believe Cat thinks I'm lazy, even tho I was out here first thing this morning, and not one of them has shown up yet." She mumbled mostly to herself.

Taking another glance around the pitch she noticed that quite a few of her team mates had shown up as well. As she looked around she began counting and realized that the entire team was already there. Mulling that fact over for a second she realized that Gemma must be there as well, scanning for her other dorm mate she spotted her almost instantly.

Giggling slightly Kaylee flew up quickly behind Gemma before she had a chance to notice and poked her in the side. "Nice of you to finally show up, I can't believe it took you so long to get ready. Wait why is your hair so messy? Do you mean to tell me that my jumping on you and screaming didn't wake you up? Maybe I should try Cats approach next time and just push you out of the bed." Still hyped up from her sugar intake from the night before she continued, "So do you want to do some warming up, maybe we could practice a few moves until the other team gets here?"

While she waited for Gemmas reply she gave an enthusiastic wave to everyone else who had shown up as she was practicing her trick.

Man when are the Huffies going to get here, I'm really in the mood to play a good game of quidditch. I must say that I think this has to be a first, the entire Slytherin team out here and not a member of the opposing team in sight. Maybe the mere sight of us caused them to run away.

Giggling slightly at her own thoughts Kaylee waited for Gemmas reply as she watched the Hufflepuffs entrance to the pitch just waiting for one of them to finally show up.

(Referee)

Amy flew onto the Quidditch pitch, the crate of balls in one arm, her whistle in the other.

She looked to both team captains. "I want a good, clean game from both teams."

She opened the crate, letting the bludgers and snitch fly loose. She took the Quaffle and positioned herself in between the two teams.

"Let the game..." She threw the Quaffle into the air, "begin!"

[Slytherin Chaser]

After having told Cat how sorry she was to be late, Gemma found that so far, no team warm-ups seemed to be done. Relieved that she had apparently missed nothing at all, she scanned the pitch and found she was indeed the last one to have arrived.

Wow, it's good luck that I have arrived before the Huffies did and the game was started, it would have been sucked if our team would have been short-handed because of my sleepiness. But whatever, I should get warmed up so I'm ready to show those bagders real Chaser's abilities once they arrive.

However, she was kept from doing so by a poke in her side.

Wait, a poke in my side? Huh?

Hearing a hyper talk she came to the conclusion it had to be Kay and that she herself was still thinking rather slowly. She waited for the probably sugar-high girl to get finished with her little speech and giggled at the thought of labeling her jumping on her and screaming 'one of the usual catastrophies occuring in her dreams.

"So Kay, you know you're not supposed to be playing Quidditch on a sugar-high! It'll be bad for your concentration as soon as it will fade. I do hope you have brought some spare candy to avoid that?" She grinned at her friend and continued, sounding not anywhere near as hyper due to lack of sleep. "And it seems you trying to wake me up wasn't successful, but I love that I didn't get thrown out of bed!" At this point she poked her tongue out at the other. "But anyways, I think doing some warming up is a good idea, I was just about to do that when you had your little evil moment and decided that poking me was a nice thing..."

A fake tear slid down her face as she pouted and waited for Kay to react, hoping her act would earn her some chocolate or any other sugary stuff. She really had to overcome the tiredness! No more going to bed late the night before a match, she decided (as she had so often) and waited for a reaction from Kay who seemed to be on the lookout for any Hufflepuff that might appear.

Pah, they probably are scared of our reputation, afraid that we will beat their little sorry butts as they are so close behind us in the tournament!

Gemma didn't want to waste any further thought on them, all she wanted was to get the game going and to finally fly across the pitch again, scoring points again and again working with the other two Chasers. She was so lucky to be playing with Kay, it would surely be a great game!

And just as she had that thought, the Referee Amy appeared out of nowhere, starting the game and thus depriving her of the warming up. Not that it was important now! Start ofthe match meant release of the Quaffle, and that was what Gemma's mission was now: getting the shiny red ball!

She headed towards where the Referee had thrown it into the air and caught it, wrapping her arm around it protectively while waiting for Kay and Jamoki to notice what was going on and trying to think of a good move to pull off that would impress the crowd. After all, they had all the time in the world as long as no Huffies were around!

[Slytherin Chaser]

Zoning off at the Hufflepuff entrance to the pitch Kaylee didn't even notice Amy come out onto the field. In fact in her zone she barely registered what Gemma had said to her. "She's probably right about the sugar high, that's more than likely what's causing me to do this constant zoning out." She mumbled to herself as she snapped out of it to see that Gemma had some how already come in possession of the quaffle.

Laughing to herself she started making her way towards Gemma, the entire way over to her she started to roll around in the air on her broom. Kaylee has always had a knack for doing very odd and interesting tricks on her broom when she was bored, this being no exception. This trick was what he uncle had dubbed the Crazy Cartwheel. Basically you keep going on a straight path but as your going to lay down and hold tightly onto your broom. Once your held on good and secure you just lean left or right which causes you to do spins in the air as your headed for your destination. This, as many of Kaylee's other tricks, had a knack for making the person performing extremely dizzy.

Stopping her trick as she reached Gemma, Kaylee continued to stay laid down flat on her broom. "Here Gemma here are some pixie stix, that's what I've been eating all morning and all night last night. Just be careful I'm starting to think that all the sugar in my system is what's causing me to zone out constantly." Handing Gemma a handful of pixie stix she continued, "Anyways, so when Jamoki gets over here we should have a trick or something to practice. Since so far this match is basically just a big practice. Do you have anything in mind?"

As she waited for Gemma to respond and Jamoki to make his way over to him Kaylee laid on her broom and closed her eyes. Maybe if she just laid her for a second she'd snap out of her funk and stop being the zone monster.

[Slytherin Chaser]

As she looked around for the other Chasers to see her, Gemma decided that Kay had probably not heard anything of what she had said to her. In fact,she only just seemed to have snapped out of some trance to discover that she, Gemma, waited for her with the Quaffle in hand. "That girl seriously needs to stop with all the sugar overdosing. She's going to get fat with all that stuff in her system, and than that wheeling move would probably make her dump onto the ground..." She mumbled this to herself and had to stile a laughter as Kay came closer, trying not to make her ask for the reason of her fit. She didn't want to scare the other with those vivd images, after all. Still concentrating on keeping the giggles inside, she didn't really hear what Kay said but just took the pixie stickes from her, smiling.

When she finally had regained control over herself, Gemma looked at Kay sitting silent and with closed eyes on her broom. She had probably zoned out again. Then again, she barely ever spoke without asking at least one question, she might have asked her something. Attempting to guess what it was she had been asked, she gave as vague an answer as she could think of.

"Well, it's stupid those bagders aren't here yet, isn't it? I actually desire a real game and not a practice-like little time-wasting. So, what move shall we pull of while we wait for them?"

Silently she prayed that this wasn't was Kay had asked her beforehand. She would seem rather dumb if that was the case, but then again it was just the usual for both of them to randomly not know things because of zoning out. So Kay might not even notice, still looking rather zoned out herself. Then Gemma decided that she might just be able to think of a move herself, so she went through the ones she could currently come up with.

"Hey Kay, I have actually always wanted to try a Double Porksckoff Ploy. It's the one where all three Chasers would fly one under the other towards the opponent's goal posts, with the middle one [as opposing to the general Porksckoff Ploy, where it was the upper one of just two Chasers] holding the Quaffle and trying not to let the opponents notice that the others are flying with him to pull off a move. Then, as soon as they are within scoring range, he or she throws the Quaffle either up- or downwards and the catching fellow Chaser would then scores a goal. The only problem about this is that to pull it off we would need Jamoki, and he doesn't seem to pay attention right now..."

Fading off, she tried to come up with another move they could pull off with just the two of them needed.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Still laying on her broom with her eyes closed she listened intently to everything that Gemma had said. It seems that if Kaylee keeps her eyes closed she does better at listening to people talk. Then she doesn't have to worry about shiny objects for people moving to distract her. As she listened to Gemma she made a mental picture of the move she was talking about pulling off.

She realized that Gemma obviously hadn't really heard a word she'd said as she just basically repeated everything Kaylee had previously said. But she knew better to bring it up, plus she could pick on Gemma for it later once the game was over.

"Yes I do think that could work. We just need to get Jamoki to wake up and get his behind over here so that we can explain it to him and then put it into motion. Well at least attempt to put it into motion. But I call top, I love heights, but you knew that by now." As she responded she kept her eyes closed but a smile pressed across her face the entire time.

Finally her head started working again and Kaylee looked around and spotted Jamoki half way across the pitch looking like he had fallen under a spell. "Hey Bro WAKE UP and get over here!!" She yelled at Jamoki across the pitch. "Since the Huffies haven't decided to grace us with there presents yet we need to try something to keep these fans entertained, if we don't I'm afraid they might boo us to death. Actually if we don't do something soon I might just fall back asleep up here." Kaylee mumbled mostly to herself as she laid her head back on her broom and waited for Jamoki.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Cussing loudly, Rose grabbed her broom and darted onto the pitch. She hit herself in the head several times at the site of pumped up Slytherins. "Never trust your friends to wake you up", she kept saying to herself threw clentch teeth.

She quickly mounted her broom and flew into the air, hoping the rest of the Huffies came. And soon.

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki had been standing in the field not paying any attention to he match and that was bad. Then he heard Kay call for him to get up into the sky. He mounted his Firebolt and jumped up into the air. He held the handle then took a hard turn and gripped his broom slightly and zoomed over to Kay and Gemma.

“Sorry I am late getting up here.”, he said to them.

Jamoki had looked like a fool with him standing on the ground after the match had started. He seen that Gemma had the Quaffle and wondered what they will be doing next.

“So, what you girls got in mind of doing?”

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose felt akward and alone, being the only Hufflepuff out there. She felt like a bright yellow target. If none of her teammates showed soon, Rose was gonna be Slytherin bait.

She thought about atempting to steal the quaffle before the others noticed her arrival, but then she knew the bludgers would be after her in a jiffie.

"What to do", Rose sighed sadly. She felt like Slytherin had already won.

(Slytherin Keeper)
Violet flew over to the hoops. She noticed only one Hufflepuff out there. "Wow great way to start this game."Violet said to herself. She saw her other team mates flying around. She decide to just sit back and watch the game until Hufflepuff decided they wanted to come and play instead of sleep and forget stuff all the time. Violet wonder rather they had even set their alram clocks for today anyway.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose blew the black hair out of her face and tapped her hand impationtly on the broom.

"I swear", she said, anger swelling up in her. "When the rest of my team gets here, there will be blood."

Thinking of nothing else she could posibly do, Rose took a deep breath and darted full speed towards the Slytherin with the Quaffle. She stroke her broom kindly. "If I die, go home with Trevor."

(Slytherin Keeper)

Violet had been wacthing the game when she seen Huffie speeding towards Gemma. Slowly getting mad, she cupped her hands around her mouth nad yelled at Gemma.

"Gemma, look behind you!" Violet yelled. She was not ready to lost to Hufflepuff with just one player playing. They would be laughed at if that happen. Praying to God that Gemma heard her, Violet closed her eyes, not wanting to see if Huffie got the Quaffle or not.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose herd someone yelling, and turned her head to see who had called out. Violet, the Slytherin Keeper, was trying to warn her teammate. Rose frowned. Hopefully, the opposing chaser didn't hear her cry. But just in case...

Rose speed up, a lot.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Violet mentally cursed herself. She had a feel that Gemma had not heard her and that the Huffie would get the Quaffle. Just to make sure, Violet cupped her hands around her mouth again and yelled out.

"Gemma if you didnt hear me the first time, I'm just wanting to say again, please look behind you or change direactions!"

Violet flew close to the middle hoop, having the feeling the Quaffle would be over here in just a couple minutes and she was going to be prepared for it.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Hearing Violet shout at her, Gemma woke from her doze with a start, cussing silently. How could she have fallen asleep high up in the air on her broom? Turning frantically, she saw the Hufflepuff Chaser coming towards her and decided that she better got gone with the Quaffle just in case the others weren't paying attention as well.

Tucking the red ball safely under her right arm, she leaned down so she almost lay on her broom and then did some kind of Sloth Grip Roll, hoping it would confuse her opponent long enough for her to get away. However, she hadn't considered how she had never pulled off that move, so now as she had rolled over on her broom she was hanging in mid-air with her head pointing towards the ground and the blood rushing into it. It was definitely not comfortable, she had no idea how to get back up and to top it all off, she could feel her grip on the broom was loosening. She had a hard time figuring out what to do, and as she tried her best to get back the way she belonged to [aka sitting on the broom rather than this] she noticed just too late that the Quaffle had escaped her arm and was flying downwards.

Screaming as loud as she could in this situation, she hoped to attract Jamoki's and Kay's attention to it so they would save the thing.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose was feet away from the red ball. A smile appered on her face, but only for a moment. The Slytherin Keeper was yelling again. Louder than before. Rose pushed her broom forward, begging it for every last bit of speed. Before she had time to think of mush else, the Hufflepuff Chaser was innches from the Quaffle. She reached her hand out as the tips of her fingers touched the ball, ready for Gemma to spin on her.

And she was. The Slytherin darted away from Rose at the last minute. Cussing, Rose watched her do some strange move. She felt like flying off into some dark, musty cave, but then Gemma dropped the Qaffle and Rose's hope jolted back into her like wildfire.

She dived, snatching it up in an instant. She felt like cheering, but then remembered the now angry mob of Slytherin's, and darted to the goal posts, headed right for Vilot.

(Slytherin Keeper)

"Darn, darn, darn." Violet cursed herself. She had been to late at warning Gemma and she lost the Quaffle. Blocking the middle hoop, she waited for the chaser to come her direaction. She had been hoping another chaser had seen but they didnt.

"Come on Huffie, lets see how good you are."Violet whispered to herself

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose zoomed in on the goals quickly think of a move. Then one hit her.

"This is gonna be fun", she whispered. "HUFFALISIOUS TWISTER!!!!" Rose, atempted her own move for the secound time, flew dead at Violet. As she neared the ready Keeper, she rolled three times to the left, then quickly tossed the Quaffle to the goal. "Go in, danget!", Rose cheered in her head. She didn't want her move to fail a secound time.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Violet eyebrows went together. What was the girl doing? Then she saw the Quaffle coming towards the goal and she quickly flew over to it. She had barely touched it but it went in. Cursing herself, she flew down and got the Quaffle. Throwing it to Jamoki, she would not let it in the next time. Not while she was mad, it would not go by her, it would not. Glaring at the Huffie chaser, she flew to the middle and watched the chaser.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose happy-danced as she herd the bell ding, nearly falling off her broom. She felt Violets cold gaze on her, and turned to face the Keeper. She looked kind of angry and mad at herself.

Rose, being the good sport that she was, flew over to her and smiled shyly. "That was a really great try. You almost had it. Good luck next time." She flew off before Violet could say anything, trying to make it back to the Quaffle before the Slytherin's got it.

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki had lost track of the game and he needed to stop that. He heard violet yell at Gemma because of the huffie coming our way. Luckily Gemma heard violet and got away from the huffie for a while. Till she did a move which stopped her from getting right side up and she dropped the Quaffle. Then the huffie chaser got he Quaffle and zoomed down to violet. Then she did some weird move and threw the Quaffle to the goals. Hopefully violet will block the goals and stop the Quaffle.

Then Jamoki zoomed over to Gemma before she fell off her broom and helped her get right side up. Her face had been red because of her hanging up side down. Hopefully she was ok.

“Gemma you ok?”, he asked her.

Then he heard the bell ring and the huffie made the goal. Then violet threw the quaffle back in his direction to get it. He left Gemmas side and gripped his FireBolt tight and zoomed to the quaffle and caught it before the little huffie even thought of touching it again.

"I dont think so huffie.", he said to the huffie.

Then Jamoki gripped the broom again and zoomed off to the huffie goals.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Gasping at the speed of Jamoki, Rose darted as fast as her little Nimbus could go. With no Hifflepuff Keeper, the Slytherin could score easily. Way easily. Rose pushed as hard as she could, wishing more than anything her whole team would come flying into the air like a swarm of bees. But Jamoki was way ahead of the little huffie.

(Slytherin Keeper)

"Go Jamoki!" Violet yelled at the look of the little Huffie's face. Shows her who she is messing with. Violet thought. She knew wothout the rest of Hufflepuff, Slytherin would win easy. Smirking, she knew Hufflepuff had no chance of winning now. Violet grabbed her ponytail and started to put her hair up so it would not be in her face any more and so she would not get to hot.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose herd the cheering from Violet, and knew she had no chance of catching up with the Slytherin. She slowed her broom, stroking it gently. "Good job, Alma. I'm so proud of you." Rose knew there was no hope in beating Slytherin at this point, seeing she had no team and they where so full of spirit. They had this wold game sitting in the palm of there hands. Rose stood perfictly still as Jamoki neered the goals.

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki had smiled at what he heard Violet say. He looked back and seen the huffie far enough behind him. While on his way to the huffie goal post he swerved and such having fun knowing he would score. Then he came within 10 feet of the goal post and suddenly stopped.

Then he stood up on his broom and did a spin and throw. He would make his broom spin around and he threw the Quaffle as hard he could. He then stopped. The Quaffle had been heading right into the nearest goal post. Knowing that the huffie would not be able to try and save it due to them being slow He sat back down on his broom.

Then he turned around to face to huffie and zoomed toward her ready to push her away or scare her into flying away.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose had to admit it to herself. SHe was scared. Just like her first game. She felt like there was nothing she could do, and the cheering of the houses below was making her dizzy. She swallowed, trying to keep a firm grip on her broom. Everything was going dark, and spinning.

"No", Rose felt so alone and scared up in the air right now, just like a first year on there first day. "Please keep me on, something, just keep me on!" She felt like she was going to puke. Soon, the noised and cheering faded, and all Rose could hear was the beating of her own heart.

Thump thump.....thump thump....thump thump....

Then, she slipped off, falling to the earth. She was completly out.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Vilet had been cheering but she saw something happening to the Huffie. Dear God, she fainting. She thought and left her spot and flew towards the Huffie. She may have been in Slytherin, but she would not let anyone get hurt. Just before the Huffie landed. Violet caught her.

"Why would a captain let someone who faints play in the game?"Violet asked herself and landed on the ground near Madmae Promfey.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose started to shiver, as if having a bad dream. Madame Pomfrey tried to wake her, giving the poor girl water and shaking her. But Rose did not stir. Something was wrong. Sure, she had fainted like a normal person would under pressure, but this was diffrent. Madame Pomfey rubbed her chin. She should be taken out of this match, she thought.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gazing dizzily at all that was going on aroun her, Gemma still wasn't fully used to the fact she was sitting upright on her broom again. Yeah, it was already quite a long time now, but she had always been apt for going dizzy due to her recurring lack of sleep. And now, to avoid further similar distraction, she poured the contents of three of Kay's pixie sticks into her mouth.

As soon as she felt the sugar in her system, she knew things would be easier from now on, and she also recalled now how she would get back onto her broom with the help of a simple flip if she needed to do yet another Sloth Grip Roll move. Which she considered unlikely, given that no Beaters of the Huffie's team had arrived so far and their only player had obviously passed out on the grounds of the pitch. She knew she should have cared about that, but her Slytherin side and her ambitious traits kicked in and she ignored the condition of her opponent. This was her game, and she wasn't about to get distracted!

Checking out just where Kay and Jamoki where located on the pitch and peeking for the Quaffle, she got moving again and circled around, doing one little lap after the other to see whatever happened. She couldn't afford to miss anything again, especially since the Huffies seemed to be in the lead, so she kept her eyes open while still circling, remembering having heard somewhere of that move considered to be the 'Watchful Eye' one.

Now she only had to wait for her team to get the red ball and she would start with all the manoeuvres to earn some respect from the other pupils present, both on the pitch and in the stands!

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki had still been flying toward the huffie till he seen her fall off her broom and then he stopped. He would have gone to help her if violet hadn’t gotten to her first. Then he heard a ring and the Quaffle had went in. He smiled with delight. Then he turned around and flew toward the Quaffle and caught it.

Then he flew back to where Gemma was. He held it out toward her.

“Here Gemma. Want to make a goal?”, he asked her.

Jamoki just sat there smiling because he made his first and not last goal of the match. Since the huffie had fainted and no other huffies where there it would be easy. He then looked down to where the huffie was hoping she was ok. Even if she was a huffie he didn’t want her to get hurt when she was the only huffie out here.

((OOC: My first few paragraphs are in reply from a few pages ago…sorry)

[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat stayed hovered in the air, waiting for the game to start. As she waited she noticed Bella, or Ziggy as she was used to calling her, and Shadow, both beaters arrive. She smiled and waved at the both of them. “Keep those bats up and ready for when the Hufflepuffs arrive. And good luck.” She smiled again and then went back to waiting.

Not long after she noticed Gemma show up. “Look who finally decided to show up,” she joked. “Your lucky you didn’t miss the start of the game or it would have been extra laps around the Pitch during practice.” She grinned wickedly. “Now don’t let this happen again or you will start getting some rude wake ups from both me and Kay.”

She noticed Amy appear on the field and smiled wickedly. No Hufflepuffs had arrived yet so that meant Slytherin got a good head start. She chuckled at the referees order and replied, “If we must.” Though she doubted she heard it.

When the crate was opened Cat focused her eye on the snitch. Unfortunately since she wasn’t allowed to move she quickly lost sight of it as it went under and behind her broom. She cursed under her breath and waited till Amy signaled the game’s beginning before quickly moving into action to flip around and look for it.

She kept looking around for what felt like hours. As she looked a Hufflepuff chaser arrived. The Hufflepuff managed to get the Quaffle from her team mates, which really only happened because Gemma ended up dangling upside down and dropping the ball. Shortly after Jamoki had the ball though and aimed it at one of the goals.

Before she could tell whether or not it made it, she noticed the Hufflepuff chaser faint. She felt almost felt bad for the other team since their only member currently there had just fainted and was likely going to have to quiet the game. Just then she heard the sound of a goal made and grinned to the teams score. Well at least it gives us a chance to score more goals, she thought to herself as she continued to look for the tiny golden ball.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Seeing Jamoki and the Quaffle making their way over towards her, Gemma silently cheered for her team and then decided that now was as good a time than ever to pull of the move she had wanted to all along, and had explained to Kay before that badger had so rudely interrupted their little practice session. She would get her back for that by scoring the most awesome goal possible!

She waited until Jamoki had gotten to her with a huge smile plastered across his face, probably due to the fact that he had just scored the first goal. Seeing as he offered her the Quaffle, she guessed it was the perfect situation now for pulling off the Double Porksckoff Ploy.

"Listen, Jamoki, me and Kay were discussing some move before you were arriving. It's basically a Porksckoff Ploy, you know, the one where two Chasers fly one under the other towards the opponent's goal posts and while the upper one is noticed by opponents due to holding the Quaffle, the other goes unseen. Then within scoring range the upper one drops the Quaffle to their teammate below who can then score." She noticed the pixie stix had really done their job, as she was talking without breathing, sounding all hyper now. "Yeah, what we want to try now is a Double Porksckoff Ploy. Basically the same, just with three Chasers, the middle one having the Quaffle and throwing it to the upper one first who will then in return either score a goal or drop the ball the the one farthest down to have them score."

At this point, she finally had to stop and breathe, and figuring she had explained rather wildly she glanced at her fellow Chaser, hoping he hadn't been confused by her random explanation speech. Well, even if he was, it wouldn't really matter. They could just pull it off without putting themselves in danger due to the non-existent Huffies opposing them. She waited for a response from Jamoki and meanwhile shouted over towards Kay.

"Heya, Kay! Ready to pull off the move we discussed earlier? You know, the awesome threesome one?" She giggled at the way she had worded her question and now awaited a reaction from both her fellow Chasers, mulling over the requested choice of position for all three of them.

(Slytherin Keeper)
After Violet had left the Huffie, she flew back up to the goals. They will not be playing for a while, might as well sit back and relax, Violet thought. She gin as the sound of ringing went in her ears. Yes this was going to be an easy game if the others never showed up. Violet hummed the tune to Weasley is our king waiting for the rest of the other team to come out and start playing.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Hovering over near the goal posts Kaylee heard Gemma shout something about a threesome. Giggling madly she almost fell off her broom due to a fit of laughter. "That Gemma, she sure does have a way with words. You know I've been in some odd situations today, first I was a lazy sod and now I'm getting invited into threesomes, the most innocent of situations of course.. What an odd quidditch match this is turning out to be."

Still giggling Kaylee noticed Violet come back up to her post humming the Weasley is our king tune. "That's a mighty catchy song your singing there." As she said this she smiled towards Violet, "Better be careful or you'll have the entire team singing it." Still smiling Kaylee flew off to Gemmas side before Violet could reply.

Once she was back at Gemmas side she waited patiently for Jamoki to say weather or not he understood what was going to happen. "Hopefully he does, I don't want to zone out again during her explaining it again." She mumbled mostly to herself as she started to shake gadget, her broom back, in forth in mid air.

"Hey if it's alright with you both I'd like to score a goal, actually we can all take turns. How does that sound to everyone? I only ask because I haven't gotten a chance at all this year to score a goal. I figure even if it's an easy goal it's better than no goal." She remarked now looking at the empty hoops standing in the air directly in front of them.

As she waited for a response she started to mumble the words and hum the tune to Weasley is our King, "He cannot block a single thing.... That's why Slytherins all sing.... Weasley is our King." Smiling she thought about the first time she ever heard that song.

(Slytherin Chaser)

“Yes I understand Gemma.”, he replied to her.

Then Jamoki seen Violet go back to her post at the goals. Then Kay had come over to him and Gemma. She had said that she wanted to make a goal now. He didn’t really care which what they did. It would be to easy to make a goal anyway. Plus, the goal post were not to far from them.

“Well Kay if you want to make a goal then go ahead. I will follow you just in case a huffie does come and I will also get the Quaffle once you score. Well when it goes through the goal post.”, he said to Kay.

Then Jamoki just sat there waiting for the girls to choose which move they would make.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Once she was assured that everybody knew what they were about to do, Gemma confirmed that she was also keen on scoring and thus liked the idea of taking turns to score.
"Okies everyone, so let's put up a show for our fans, shall we? I'm gonna go for the middle position for now, so I shall have the Quaffle-", grinning, she took it from Jamoki who was still holding it out to her, "and you two may choose whatever you want to do. So let's take off, and enjoy your flight, ladies and gentleman!"
Yes, the sugar was still fully supplying her with energy. A huge grin spread across her face as she tucked in the Quaffle once more and then sped up to reach the nearby goal posts at full speed.

Not throwing back any look to see whether the others caught up with her, Gemma merely enjoyed the breeze caressing her face pleasently as she picked up pace, she felt the forces of nature battling against her and her broom and so she lay flat on the broomstick to avoid air resistance. This was what she loved to do, droning out all of her thoughts with the whistling of wind in her ears and just feeling the freedom of flying on her latest Nimbus modell. Closing her eyes to get the full feeling of having no limits, she relied completely on her instincts.

Of course, this wasn't a good idea, she had never been one with strong instincts at all. Just as she opened her eyes again to regain sight, she saw a goal post zooming towards her at high speed and figured that the only way to go about this was sudden movement. And sudden movement required no thinking, which she happened to be good at. The wind now blowing sharp into her faces, making her eyes tear slightly, she leaned to the right as hard as she could without dangling off into another episode of hanging upside down. Her idea was to leap to the right and make a sharp circle around the posts so she could fly back to her original position and give the move another try. Of course, all of this was just theoretically planned out in a matter of seconds, meaning she didn't consider the art of flying narrow circles but instead ended up going diagonally to the right, still at top speed, sending her towards the spectators' stands this time.

Pulling up hard and somehow doing a backwards loop she hadn't ever intended to do, she decided looping was not her favourite action. She felt slightly sick and was still riding up into the sky, not seeming to slow down at all. She pulled the handle of her broom once more and suddenly found herself hanging from the broom once more, with the same old feeling of blood rushing to her head. She did however figure, after flying a short distance in this new style, that she had gotten herself positioned upside-down behind the goal hoops, and deciding she had wanted to try this for long, she aimed the Quaffle at the hoops from where she was behing them, throwing with all the might she could muster up in this strange situation.

Well, let's just hope the others won't be annoyed by my little improvised stunt! Cause I can't wait to see whether that'll be a score, haha! If it'll be, I should probably consider naming and establishing that move - Off-Course Chaos might be fitting. But now, to get up on that damn wooden stick again....

[Slytherin Chaser]

Before Kaylee could even jump for joy when Jamoki said he didn't mind letting them score Gemma took off with the quaffle towards the goal. At first Kaylee was stunned and utterly perplexed by Gemmas sudden movement.

"Weren't we just discussing doing a play together and now she's just taking of leaving me sit here to daze off again. That silly girl." As she said this she put her hands over her face and just started shaking her head back and forth. When she finished she peeked out from between her fingers to see Gemma once again upside down. "What in the name of Lucius Malfoy is that girl doing. That's the second time today she's ended up being upside down in possession with the quaffle. I'm starting to think we need to have a practice flying session with my friend Gemma over there."

Shaking her head back and forth Kaylee crossed her legs below the broom, crossed all of her possible fingers to cross and then crossed her arms and eyes hoping for the quaffle to make it in the hoops. After all if it did that would be one awesome move. "Please, please, please, please go in!" She mumbled to herself as she kept everything crossed.

[Slytherin Beater]

Bella flew around the pitch, looking for bludgers, that had evaded her so far this match. Not that it would really do them any good if she found any, only one Hufflepuff had turned up so far and the poor girl had fainted. Without an opposition to aim at, Bella simply flew around the field, enjoying the feeling of the wind through her long golden hair. She also found amusement in watching some of the awesome slytherin chasers pull off some awesome moves, but other than that their was really no point in her being their. Bella growled playful insults at Cat and Jamoki for waking her, wishing she was still rugged up under the nice warm covers. She also felt faintly guilty at the amount of homework she was leaving undone to be here, for she had been expecting a hard, close game. Bella smiled at what shadow had said earlier about doing damage, wishing that their was somebody to damage.
