[Hufflepuff Seeker}

::Dani scampered onto the pitch her robes were new, not the same old reserve clothes she would've worn. She was now Hufflepuff's offical Seeker. Her smile quickly changed to a frow, apparently she was late. Swearing she hopped onto her broom and shot into the air looking crazily around for the gold ball.

Looking for slyterin's seeker she sighed resigning herself to a hover before glancing around for her own teammates. She waved then returned to the search.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Violet saw a Huffie come on the felid. Looks like time, Violet thought. She saw the girl wave to know one and raised an eyebrow. That girl is crazy, there is no one out there, Violet thought again. She noticed the girl was a seeker and laughed.

"This girl will never beat Cat."She said out loud.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma was still busy getting back up on her broomstick, in fact it cost her much energy and concentration even though she knew she simply had to flip back. She was now furtherly confirmed that she should just stop doing things that resulted in her dangling upside down altogether, but her moment of worry was overpowered by the absolute joy of the ring she heard - her Quaffle had gone through the hoop despite the chaos that had let to her trying to score. She was the best out there, yes, she sooooo was! At least if that sound wasn't created by her head for too much blood supply. She had to make sure she got upright again, her limbs wer starting to hurt and she didn't consider it possible to stay healthy hanging there all the time. The cheers of the Slytherins in the stand did however take her mind of that issue, and seeing them root wildly, she applauded for herself grinning - well, only grinning a very short while as she had taken her hands off of her broom. In the spur of a second, she clasped her legs together as tightly as she could, holding onto the broomstick with them as hard as she could.

Well, Gemma. You should probably consider learning to fly properly. Or dangle properly. Whatsoever, just we can't have all these near-accidents in a real game where the opponents decide to show up. Now, I shall get some grip - ha, no pun intended! - on myself and get back up there before something bad happens!

She was glad to know that her legs had always been the best-trained feature about all of her, so she pressed them together still and swung left and right in order to gain momentum for her flip back onto the broom. Five, six times of swinging passed and she was still not up there, but then she finally did it and had to move abruptly so she wouldn't just do a full Sloth Grip Roll the other way round, aka from dangling from the broom to dangling from the broom. Nope, no good. Luckily, she managed. Now her only problem was the blood rushing back to her body from her head which was probably beet red by now. The rushing noise in hear ears distracted her off what was going on, so next thing she knew, a yellow and black robe caught her eye up on the pitch, and her first thought was the fainted Chaser was back, but apparently this was the team's seeker.

"Wow, who it that nutty one waving to? Her team isn't even there, well besides that one badger who knocked herself out apparently. They do have to be one mental team, either not turning up, not playing or waving to a non-existant team..." She smirked at herself - the trademark Slytherin smirk, naturally - as she noticed those bad, bad traits breaking free inside of her once more. It was moments like that she was absolutely positive she belonged into this house! And she was sure proud of it.
Snapping out of the not-so-important thought, she went to see how far the Quaffle had gotten once being through the hoops. Surprisingly, it was still rather close by, so all she had done and considered previously might just have been no more than half a minute. Amazed, she made her way over to the red shiny ball and took a peek at her fellow Chasers, who seemed however as if they were in a serious daze.

Well, to wake them or to practice myself, that is the question!, she mused and decided to do a little of both. Yelling out to them both to prepare for some major hot move at last, she mulled over trying Kay's very own Crazy Cartwheel move, where she would go in one direction steadily while all the time spinning on her broom as to confuse the opponent team. Of course there wasn't an opponent team right now, but the idea of practicing it - no, it made her head go right back to spinning again, she couldn't have more of that. Her head would probably go exploding all over the pitch if she rushed the blood into it any further time! Coming to the conclusion that the time for the less troublesome Double Porksckoff Ploy had arrived at last. Like, for real, this time.
Passing the stands of green and silver while getting herself to where Jamoki and Kay where still located in awe, she figured they needed teaching to cheer even harder and louder at the upcoming game.

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki watched as Gemma took off with the Quaffle. He thought it was rather rude when she just took it and flew off. Even if he was offering it to her. Then he seen the Huffie Seeker step out onto the field. He also seen Ziggy flying around looking for bludgers. Then he gripped his broom and zoomed over to Gemma.

“I guess someone is ready to get to scoring quick.”, he said to her.

From what he knew all of Slytherin was here and Huffie was still down there Chaser. Only the seeker was here and that couldn’t help them. Just hopefully cat will get the snitch before huffie does.

[Slytherin Chaser]

After sitting there not being able to see, due to her eyes being crossed, for what seemed like a good minute she heard the ding of the quaffle going through. Letting out the breath she was holding she mumbled to herself, "Now that that's over we can get back to doing a move together. And I must talk to her about some possible flying lessons." As she mumbled she uncrossed her legs, fingers and arms.

When she finally could see straight again she saw Jamoki and Gemma hovering near by, Gemma had already flipped herself right side up and managed to recapture the quaffle already. As she flew over to them she yelled out to Gemma, "Well I'm glad to see you've rejoined the world of people sitting on top of their brooms. Speaking of I think we need to do some flying lessons once this match in through." Once she finished speaking she was no longer yelling as she was now hovering right next to Gemma.

Looking around the pitch she finally noticed the new Huffie that had appeared while her eyes were crossed in anticipation. At first her stomach almost did a flip until she realized that it was only the seeker.

No problems, Cat is an expert at catching the snitch, that Huffie doesn't look like she will be much competition for her awesome skills.

Giggling at her own thoughts she suddenly remembered something else.

Wait a minute wasn't my eye crossing situation due to Gemma being rude and running away with the quaffle and not even letting us know what was going on.

Due to her latest thought Kaylee turned towards Gemma with a fake angry face and proceeded to lay it on thick. "You know Gemma that really hurt my feelings, I was really hoping we could pull off a team maneuver and practice together and you just ran off and left me sitting here. Especially considering I just asked you if it was alright if I could score. I think that was very selfish and rude of you. Sometimes I wonder if your really even my friend." As she finished a fake tear slide down her face.

Just as Gemma started to look like she was going to reply telling Kay how sorry she was Kaylee busted out laughing. "I'm only messing with you Gem, I can't believe you couldn't tell that by now." Nearly falling off her broom in her fit of laughter she cooed, "So whats the plan are we going to actually try to pull of this Double Porksckoff Ploy this time or are you going to run away with the quaffle again?"

[Hufflepuff Keeper]

"Oh no, oh no oh no!!" Kate jumped out of bed as quickly as she could when she realized that there was a game. "Oh no oh no oh no!!!"

As soon as she got to the door Kate looked around and wondered to herself how many others had already begun the match. She was dead meat.

As Kate reached the changing rooms, she pulled on her robes over her couch-potato clothes, she ran onto the pitch jumping onto her broom as she flew. Then, in utter shock, she realized that the was only one other huffie on the pitch. She zoomed towards the goal posts, shouting apology at her other team member.

"Whats the score? Or don't I want to know?" She called to Rose, dreading the answer.

(sorry i am late the computer went crazy)

(Slytherin Keeper)
Violet saw another Huffie come out, this time talking to someone who wasnt there. Violet bursted into tears. How was this team even a team if they talk to peolpe not even there. Which was worst, waving or talking to invisible peolpe?

"Hey, hey Huffie, you have no team. So are you talking to invisble peolpe like your friend was waving at them?" Violet asked, laughing hard this time. Yeah with this kind of team, they would lose big time. Watching the rest of the team, she hoped they had gotten in more points that they would be ok with the keeper over there.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma hadn't waited too long when Jamoki made his way over to her, saying that "someone is ready to get to scoring quick", at which she blushed slightly. They had actually been attempting to pull off a team maneuver, but she had prevented that by both her sugar-high caused sudden take off and her random chaotic flight trying to avoid various accidents. She would have to tell both Jamoki and Kay that she hadn't meant to do this at all, but first off it was necessary for her to sort out herself exactly what she had thought risking her life the way she had. Taking a deep breath to start giving the Chaser who already was by her side the slightest explanation, she was only cut off before even starting by the nearin Kay who yelled something about her rejoining something, and wanting her to take flying lessons after the game.

Well, I guess taking those lessons wouldn't be half bad for me, or else I might just become famous one day - as the world most often upside-down dangling Quidditch player.

As Kay had arrived next to her and Jamoki, Gemma wondered just how she was supposed to excuse her awkard flying behaviour and the egoist move she had pulled off. The only problem was Kay's giggling kept her from coming up with a dramatic story, and when she finally had gotten one she could work with, she suddenly receieved a death glare from the loony Chaser girl next to her, aka Kay.

Oh no, what't that now? No, no evil rant. Lady, we are in the middle of a match - well practically - that isn't a time to go ranting about! Wait , hurt feelings? Wondering if I'm even her friend? Nonononono, I must amke her stop this! Aww, no tears, damn. I'm such a bad friend-

Gathering her thoughts to go and excuse to Kay seriously and most of all quickly, she opened her mouth and - and was once again cut off by the other. Who was all laughter and brightness again. And making fun of her, actually.

Gee, yeah make me feel dead guilty and then laugh it off as if it's nothing! And here I go being labeled the bad friend when- no, none of that now.

"So whats the plan are we going to actually try to pull of this Double Porksckoff Ploy this time or are you going to run away with the quaffle again?" At this, Gemma actually grinned again, deciding to delay explanations to after the game. Now was action, talk came later on the list. Assuring both Kay and Jamoki that she actually planned on doing the DPP now, too, she was only distracted by a yellow-and-black person racing up onto he pitch to fly over to the goal posts and- what, talked? Gemma double checked what she had seen first and had a really strong fit of laughter once she was sure of the image.

"So Kay, Jamoki - aren't you scared of this team? Not showing up, fainting, waving to nobody, talking to goal posts - what will come next? One of them might decide to group huggle us Slytherins! I say be afraid, be very afraid!" Almost throwing her butt of her broom from the shaking laugh that went through her like through a crazy woman, Gemma did her best to calm down and then checked whether this time, the others were actually up to the move they wanted to pull off. She didn't want to end up ruining it again, so she wanted to make sure everything was well planned out.

"Ready to try it once again then, both of you? Me middle player, that's for sure, but who of you actually wants to go above me and ho likes to be positioned underneath the power - well, our shiny red friend here?"

She held out the Quaffle shortly, spinning it in her hand as if to show it off, and then again wrapped her arm around it tightly in case any evil Huffie might get the idea to take it from her.

(Slytherin Chaser)

Jamoki looked at Gemma as they sat there on there brooms. She had slightly blushed as he could see and then Kay had come up beside them both. Then Kay had said something to Gemma from what Gemma had done. It had sounded rather Rude. He just gave Kay a stern look. Then once he heard she was joking he stopped looking at her so sternly. Then he faced Gemma.

“You ready Gemma. I think it shall be easy to get the goal. I mean the huffies are crazy. Like you said.”, he said to her.

Jamoki had remembered when Gemma did a slight blush was he pulled up and said something. He then leaned over and gave her a slight kiss on the cheek. He then sat up straight before Kay could see what he had did.

[Slytherin Chaser]

After Gemma finished speaking Kay just sat there and continued to giggle. Gemma and Kay were happily giggling together when Gemma suddenly stopped and a look of horror crossed her face. Kay had seen Jamoki lean in so she was pretty sure she could guess what had happened.

"Look here mister, you don't go around kissing girls, especially when they don't know your going to do it. Plus Gemma is one of my two best friends, and you don't kiss your sisters best friends, it's against the rules or something. And if I see you do anything like that again I'll come straight over and knock you off your broom and lock you back in your cage, you got that mister? Oh and before you even think about it the same goes for Cat, no kissing my friends little man." As Kaylee said this she flew around so her and Jamoki were face to face, and she pointed her finger angrily inches away from his face.

Letting out a deep breath to calm down Kay flew back over to the other side and continued in a much calmer manner, "I'll take the top, Jamoki you take the bottom and Gemma will be in the middle. Gemma will throw the quaffle up to me and I will fake like I'm going to toss it down to you and when the keeper moves to block you I will throw the quaffle in, got it?"

Once she finished she flew up and waited for the other two to get into formation. "This game just keeps getting weirder and weirder. First there are no Huffies to be seen, and then one shows up faints for some strange reason. Then another shows up and waves to imaginary team mates, and then this keeper shows up and talks to people who aren't there. I hope this is all some kind of trick, or maybe the Huffies really have lost their marbles. And on top of all that my silly brother has to go and break the brother sister code on top of it all. Man, maybe I should have just stayed in bed today." Kaylee mumbled to herself shaking her head back and forth as she waited.

[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat sat there waiting for a glimpse of that little golden ball called a snitch. She really wasn’t much for waiting, but the thrill of when she found it more than made up for it. She rather liked the snitch. It was a gorgeous little ball, which is why she was so happy when she was able to get one of her own that she now keeps safe in a small little box. But what is more gorgeous than the ball is what it was based on, the snidget, a spherical bird with golden feathers and red, jewel-like eyes. The bird was gorgeous; she had once been to a reserve and saw a few. In the 1200s they were banded from being used in Quidditch and declared an endangered species.

As she looked around she noticed Dani, the Hufflepuff seeker show up. Dani was one of the first people she remembered talking to at the school, but she did have to admit the girl has had maybe a few too many pixie sticks. After all she was waving to a team that wasn’t there. She then heard Violet’s comment and gave her a stern look. Just because Dani was a bit of her rocker this game doesn’t give her the right to be rude.

She then saw the Hufflepuff keeper, Kate, show up. Well at least now the team will have some way to defend themselves. A game really isn’t fun if there is no competition. It also isn’t much of a victory if you win.

She looked around more and eventually her eyes met a surprising scene. Jamoki kissed Gemma! Yes it was on the cheek, but still! She quickly flew over towards him and gave him a stern look. “What do you think you are doing? We are in the middle of a game here! This is no time for public displays of affection! And also you do not kiss the Captain’s husband! Gemma is mine and Kay’s so you can’t have her mister!”

She gave him one last look and then flew a bit farther off to where she had a better look of the whole field.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose finally woke up. She was lying on the ground, and a few teachers where above her. Madame Pomfrey was looking down at her curiously.

"Here now, drink this." She handed the Hufflepuff Chaser some red liquid. Rose slowly lifted herself up, and took the drink. She put the goblet to her lips, but then let out a loud shriek in pain. She dropped the goblet, and the liquid spilled out onto the grass. Her hand shot to the back of her neck.

"Deary, what's wrong?" Madame Pomfey tried to look at the spot Rose's hand was covering. But the Huffie pulled away.

"No!" She grabbed her broom, and hopped on it quickly, but Madame Pomfey grabbed her arm and pulled her off.

"Rose! You can't go back out there! Not until you tell me whats wrong."

Rose felt her cheeks turn red, and all she wanted to do was kill someone. But whatever happened, she could not let anyone see the mark on her neck.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Violet glared and finally got ready. Huffie was awake and she would try to beat Violet, not this time. Pulling her ponytail harder, she watched her fly out. Great, new challenge. She will not get by me this time, I’ll make sure of it rather she likes it or not. Wiping the tears from her eyes, she waited to see if Huffie would try to get the Quaffle.

“Beaters, we need the beater. Where are they?” Violet asked herself, biting her nails. She saw her team mate and Jamoki try to kiss Gemma. Great, akwardness in the common room and locker room. Violet prepared herself and watched to make sure the girl didn’t think about making some weird move.

[Commentator]

"Amy is going to kiiiiillllllllll meeeee!" she said loudly as she raced through the halls of Hogwarts. "Scuse me, oh, oops, excuuusseee me!!!!" June was causing quite the ruckus as she ran towards the Quidditch Pitch with a scarf half wrapped around her neck, looking as if she'd just gotten out of bed. Which, of course, she had. Eek. "MOOOVE ITTT!!!" June shouted, unable to be patient anymore as a group of girls stood chatting in the middle of the hallway, taking up lots of space which June needed to MOVE!

June rolled her eyes in exasperation, though of course, her lateness was all her fault and not the fault of her stupid compy which had decided to crash her audition for band at her imaginary muggle school, and of course it wasn't the fault of said band for having such an early due date, and of course it wasn't the fault of her imaginary Audacity program with had then exploded her precious edited audition file into a bazillion teeny tiny bits!!! ...Which June then had to put back together instead of record her audition again, just because she was anal like that. Of course, all the reasons why it was all her own fault (and not those reasons' faults, oh no!) was why she was so very very late. And, as she thought out that paragraph in her head, she realized how very idiotic and nonsensical it sounded, but at the moment, June didn't really care.

"DUCCKKK!!!!!!" June shouted from the top of the stairs as she ran and leaped off. For a moment, she felt as if she was flying, before the ground came rushing up to her and she crouched, hitting the grassy ground outside. Since she wasn't playing today, it made no sense to use the shortcut of the Gryffie locker rooms, so June had to take the long way. Fuuuunnn.... "I'm here, I'm here!" June shouted, holding out a giant badge that had 'COMMENTATOR' blazoned on the front in glittery gold letters, just to make sure that it was loud that clear that she was supposed to be here, that she had to be here, that, doggonit, she had to move! "Ooops, sorry!" June cried as she accidentally knocked over a little Hufflepuff's drink. "I'll make it up to you later, I promise!" After adding that last call behind her, June ran even more haphazardly - if that was possible - to the commentator's box.

When she reached it, June found a tall, thin shadow towering over her. She slowly raised her head and looked up, already knowing what she would see. Professor McGonagall's very disapproving face greeted her and June blinked upwards. "Er...." she said, not quite sure how to begin, "I'm sorry?" Her Professor's lips thinned even more, if that were possible, and June found herself handed the microphone. "We will discuss the penalty later," Professor McGonagall said severely, "but for now, hurry up and do your job." She gave a long suffering sigh, and June bit her lip. "I'm sorry Professor, I'm going Professor!" June turned, holding the microphone close to her chest, and rushed up into the box.

"I'm here!" she said into the microphone, causing some very surprised heads to turn and stare up at her. "Sorry that I'm late everyone, but I'm here!" Glancing throught the air, June suddenly realized that she had no idea what was going on... "Er... The Slytherins and Hufflepuffs are playing a very heated game..." She could almost feel Professor McGonagall's groan and mental facepalm. "It looks like Rose of Hufflepuff is hurt, and... oh my goodness, I think Cat just told off Jamoki for... kissing Gemma?!" A flurry of sighs and awws erupted from the Slytherin stands and June winced as a few of the Hufflepuffs looked as if they were going to vomit.

"Moving on, moving on," she said hurriedly, "Who has the quaffle? Where are the bludgers? Who's scored?" Suddenly, a loud and very obvious cough could be heard from behind her, and June winced yet again. "And, as I've just been reminded by our dear Professor McGonagall, as Commentator-who-should-have-been-here-on-time-which-means-early, I should already know the answers to my questions. Hehe...." June shook herself and righted her Gryffindor scarf. "BUT! ANYWAY! I'm now here to STAY!!!!!" She looked down as a bludger caught her eye and reined in her instinct to rush after it with Aethera and her bat. Performing as commentator, June said out loud, "Oooh! Bludger! Who's gonna get it???"

[Slytherin Beater]

Bella was half relieved, half exasperated when finally some Hufflepuffs showed up. From what she could tell, They now had a keeper and a seeker, plus the little chaser who seemed to be still on the ground. Bella chuckled as the Huffies seemed to thing the rest of thier team was there, wondering if they were doing it to confuse her own team. A glitter of the baeutiful shiney black bludger caught her eye. Bella smiled as she realised it was only a few metres away. Bella quickly flew towards it and smashed it with all her might. The bludger was headed for the Hufflepuff keeper, a bit of a welcome to the pitch present. Bella had hit the bludger at the keeper to try and give Jamoki and Gemma a better chance at scoring but nearly fell of her broomstck as she saw Jamoki kiss Gemma. Shaking her head, Bella laughed. She wondered whether a new romance would spring in the common room and began to craft ideas to set the two of them up. Those ideas died as quickly as they had come when she sa just about the whole team tell Jamoki off. Bella shouted to him, ''Good on you Jamoki''. Adding a wink and laughing before looking over to see if the bludger she had sent was on target.

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

Kate saw it as if in slow motion, The bludger shot at her by a slytherin beater darted and sped through the air. Kate thought as quickly as she could and realising that she could not be pulled out she tryied to pull of the badger slip . In the badger slip she had to slid to the end of her broom and wait until the bludger was around a meter away and then just pull on the front of her broom and let it slip into a roll. The badger slip. It was her favorite.

She did it, Kate managed to avoid the bludger in a matter of seconds to impact.

Phew. That was close.

But where were her other members? She wondered aloud, realizing that she was talking to herself.

(Kate, put your position!)

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose took the new potion Madame Pomfrey gave her, and the burning pain on her neck quickly went away. She thanked her, then, hopping on her broom again, flew back into play. Hufflepuff needed her, expecally since she was the only bloody chaser that showed. She was going to kill the others later.

Rose felt the Slytherin Keeper's eye on her. She swallowed, knowing scoring would be harder this time. But first, she had to find who had the Qaffle. Being sneky might not work a second time.

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

Kate looked around and saw Rose glide onto the pitch. Thank God. Kate thought, Finally we have 3 members. But where are the others?.

Kate looked around looking wildly for the quaffle. Who has it now? She thought.

"Hey Rose, are you ok?" Kate called.

(Slytherin Keeper)

Vilet smirked, she knew the girl felt her cold gaze and she knew the girl would have a hard time now. Looking around to see you had the quaffle, she waited to see how the chasers would do, now that the other keeper was there. Violet had gotten vored of waiting and decided to just watch the game again, until the girl had to quaffle again.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma was still laughing at the crazy badgers and hugging her beloved Quaffle when she saw a rather weird look in Jamoki's eyes.He told her that scoring was easy and asked if she was ready, and suddenly - where the hell did he come up with that idea? - the kid actually leaned in. Her mind went blank as she was sure she knew what he was about to do. The laughing got caught in her throat and she blinked stupidly, feeling his lips on her cheek for a second, but it felt like hours to her. Hours in which all she could do was sit there alternately blinking or being wide-eyed in shock. All her thoughts were gone from her mind, she lost her sense of time totally and all she noticed was lots of shouting around her. She thought she heard Kay, angry first then rational again, and next she imagined hearing Cat's voice. Or wasn't she imagining? She wasn't sure, she didn't seem to know anything at all anymore. Gemma had gone into utter shock, only one question whirling in her mind.

Had that really just happened?

She didn't notice she was supposed to tell Kay something about the strategy she had previously introduced, she didn't hear anything at all. Not even the comentator, or the shouting from Bella to Jamoki. She didn't take notice of the fact that Huffies seemed to be in the game the slightest bit finally. All she felt was a free space under her she seemed to fall into. Falling, falling, falling. It was only in the last second that she understood she didn't seem to be falling, but was doing so, gliding from her broomstick in slow motion. As she woke out of her trance, she gripped the handle in one swift motion, shortly before she would have fallen to hit the ground.

Now it was another single thought racing her mind, like somebody shouting right next to her:

Jamoki was going to regret this, and hard!

She knew, though, that revenge would have to wait until the end of the match, so she threw him an angry glare, knowing that looks couldn't actually kill, accompanying it with a whisper that announced to him his upcoming death. Only after that she felt able to concentrate onto the game again, and so she looked at Kay, intent on ignoring Jamoki from now on, and asked calmly: "So what are we going to do now?"

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

Come on Huffies Kate thought. "The game is not lost yet. We can still do this!" She called encouragingly.

As she looked around herself Kate realised that she had no idea where the quaffle was. Not good.

(Slytherin keeper)

Violet notice Gemma talking to the other chasers adn saw she had the quaffle. Violet smiled. Gemma was a good player and she might have a good chance at scoring against this crazy, waving and talking to invible peolpe team. She just hoped she would confuse the keeper before she got it.

(Hufflepuff keeper)

Kate was looking around the pitch when she saw that the opposing chase had the quaffle. Kate had heard that this player was good. Kate just hoped she was good too.

She may even have to use a special move.

Kate would NOT let the chaser confuse her.

(Slytherin keeper. please post your postion!)

Violet noticed the keeper knew who had the quaffle. Sitting up, she would scream at Gemma again if the the keeper and Rose came up with some kind of plan to steal it from Gemma again. Glaring at the gril across the field, Violet tighten her ponytail again.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Hovering high up in the air waiting for everyone to move into position she noticed that Gemma had finally come out of her daze and was looking as mad as ever. She heard her yell something about what was going on now, Kaylee just shook her head and sighed. "Gemma lets do the DPP you've been talking about, and if your that mad at Jamoki then lets just do the original. I'll take the high line you can take the middle, and if you can wait till the match is over to get your revenge Jamoki can take the bottom. Okay?"

Still shaking her head back and forth Kay continued to watch the other two chasers waiting for them to decide what they were going to do. "This is ridiculous, we might as well have cameras up here watching all this soap opera action that's going on during this game. Hopefully it's over for a little while, at least long enough for us to get a score in on this team." She mumbled to herself as she started to get impatient with waiting on the other two.

Adverting her eyes away from the other chasers Kay looked over at the audience to see a couple people she knew routing for the other team. "Sure root for them, because you automatically assume that we are the bad guys. Why does everyone seem to generally dislike us so much? Most of those people I've been nothing but nice to, yet they still hate me because of nothing else than my house." Shrugging her shoulders she continued her spoken thought, "What does it matter, they are just jealous of our superiority, and really who can blame them, being a Slytherin is pretty much the best thing ever." As she continued to mumble she starting to giggle and stuck her tongue out at all the huffie supporters in the stands.

Finally growing impatient she yelled out across the pitch, "Enough lets get the show on the road, we can deal with the issues after the match is through but for now can we please just get it together and pull this one stinking move off?" During her yelling she slightly turned and resumed looking at her fellow chasers, letting them know she was talking to them and no one else.

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

Kate looked around and heard lots of huffie supporters in the crowd. SHe noticed that they were both Gryfindor's and although this pleased her, she was a little put off by the fact that there was no Hufflepuff's in the stands. Where were they all today?

Looking around Kate could see that the Slytherin Chaser still had not made a move to score. It wont be long. She thought to herself as she played the possible trick saves through her mind.

Kate wondered whether Rose would try and take the quaffle off of the opposing chaser and settled into a more comfortable position.

(Slytherin Keeper. your postion please!)

Violet looked at the stands and saw Jamie. Her friend wasnt even rooting for her, even though he was in Hufflepuff, he could support her. 'Shows his true colors' Violet thought. It wouldnt be long before one of the chasers decided to shot. Violet wanted to see if the Huffie would block it or not. That would be the only excitment of the day.

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

Kate looked around wildly. Come on. She thought desperately. Shoot already.

Kate was way past angry about her other team-mates, she was desperate.

I wish they had shown. Maybe then we may of knocked out a few of the opposing side. She thought.

(Slytherin Beater)

Shadow had been searching for a bludger she could use to take out some of the Hufflepuff players, but unfortunately, they had all evaded her. Cursing under her breath, she flew in circles, hand gripping her bat fiercely, eyes searching.
"Come on, where are you?!" She said, sorely tempted to scream. Resisting the urge, she spotted a blackish blur out of the corner of her eye and sped off after it. Eyes now narrowed against the wind, never leaving the blur, she chased after it. Taking a quick glance at her surroundings, she noticed that she was flying near the Hufflepuff goal hoops. An evil grin spread across her face as she took careful aim, whacking the bludger as hard as she could towards the Huffie Keeper.

(Hufflepuff Keeper)

The bludger came towards her faster than a bullet and Kate had no choice but to drop. She had no time to think of a move and let go of her broom as if it was a red hot poker and dropped. Then, saying the incantation she had made up, she called her broom which after the Bludger had zoomed past, came from behind her and she landed softly onto it.

She later realized that this was in fact the badger bludger drop.

THAT was close. She thought.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Now having gone into a state of ranting in her erratic mind, Gemma was a bit slow in reacting. It definitely took her some seconds - or were those minutes? - to take notice of the fact that Kay had talked to her, then she went to carefully comprehending her words and finally started to think of and form answers in her head. Yupp, wrath always did slow her down big time. Luckily she seldom felt wrath, it was only ever situation like this one that made her thoughts race with evil plans of getting back at people. She was, after all, a Slytherin, so she came up with various ideas. But enough of that, Gemma decided, she had to get back to concentrating on the game.

Contemplating whether or not to pull off the DPP move with that - well, with their male Chaser, she decided that he should have his chance, but only if he took it. She told this to Kay, telling her that they would just take off and he could fly along and pull off the move with them or else they would just do the original, her and Kay. Either way she was sure her team would get the Quaffle through one of the hoops. She did, after all, have an idea in mind. And a good one, she was assured. She furthermore apologized to Kay for all the drama, emphasizing however that it was not really her fault. Then she guessed she should get over all the teen drama and get on with the game finally, as her dear friend had been telling her.

"So Kay, you fine with my idea of taking off and seeing whether a third Chaser will join us? Of course, we'll still have to hurry, those bagders on the pitch might seem off the rocker but they might still get their hands between our shiny friend and the goal hoop - even if only with the help of fortune. Just let's get it over with finally, now that my personal drama has subsided."

She giggled slightly at the last sentence, shoving aside all the cruel images in her mind to replace them with images of Quidditch moves and a cheering Slytherin crowd, as could be seen in the stands. Waiting to hear if Kay approved of her idea, she clutched the Quaffle tightly as she saw the Huffie keeper sneak glances at it. She wouldn't be cheated out of having the hold of the little ball once more, no way in hell she would. Still not getting a reply from Kay, she took a look around the pitch and spotted Shadow near the Huffies' goal hoops, sending a bludger at their Keeper.

Yeah, that girl sure has the true Beater spirit in her, glad that Cat assigned her that position! But oh, what the hell is that Keeper doing? Badger stunts? Duh, that looks about as stupid as all the maneuvers I did today, I guess.

She laughed to herself and watched the obviously confused girl letting go of her broom as the Bludger approached, making it come back to her quickly with what seemed like the Summoning Charm to Gemma. Only with the difference that the broom practically zoomed to right under the girl's butt, letting her fall sitting onto it. Only it didn't seem to hurt. Smooth charm, probably. She put it onto her list of things to find that one out later on, with all her falling she could surely need something like this! She then took another look at the Slytherins in the stands, grinning to them and thinking of the chants she had come up with lately...she definitely would need to make them well known. And she needed to do something to make those fans cheer harder. Like a good move, that was. So what would they pull off now?

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose winced as she saw the bludger fly towards Kate. A chill ran threw her body, but luckily, the Keeper saw or herd it comming and evaded it. Rose let out a long sigh. Losing the Hufflepuff Keeper would be very bad right now.

The chaser opened her mouth to holler at Kate just to make sure she was ok, but then quickly closed it when she noticed that Slytherin was taking forever to try and score. Where they thinking of a plan? Rose took oppertunity and zoomed towards them, eye locked on the Quaffle.

"If lucks on our side..." Rose muttered.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma was still gazing across the pitch, clinging to the Quaffle like it was her baby child. Nobody was going to take it from her, even if scoring did take them half a year or something. She was going to keep this shiny baby, regardless at what price. It was all hers now. And she was intent on keeping it that way, which was the reason for her keeping track of every movement on the pitch with eagle eyes. And then she saw what she had been waiting for: as Kay wouldn't answer, they couldn't pull off a move, and apparently the goddamn Huffie Chaser, freaky girl that had suddenly fainted at the beginning of the game, zoomed towards her and the other two, her eyes locked on the Quaffle edaciously.

Hah, you seriously think this is gonna work again? No way in hell, badger baboon baby, you ain't gonna take this one any other time!

Her anger was brooding again, Gemma being triggered back into ramalamlam mood by the sheer presumptuousness of that stupid person. And yes, she was insulting her. Mind you she was a Slytherin! Using the advantage of knowing the other teams tended to be afraid of their reputation, and considering that fear rather rightful in a situtation such as this one, she used her best intimidating and evil voice, dripping with maliciousness.
"Hey, Huffie! What's your name, eh? I really want to know, because somebody should know to create a proper tombstone for your grave! Right, grave. You come any closer towards me and this Quaffle here and you'll die!"
Speaking to the badger, she arose her balled fist into the air, aiming at the opponent ready to pull off a really nice move. Namely, the Transylvanian Tackle, meaning a fake punch, but the Huffie didn't have to know that small detail. Gemma sneered at her, positive that she had scared the girl, and was amazed at the utter malignity she felt spread in her body and take control of her thoughts.

Anger management issues, anybody? Wow I never thought some events could set me off as much as today's match, and that one isn't over yet! I really hope girlie here will buy the little performance I gave her. I must have seemed intimidating, else I'll be in serious trouble now...though I never really felt as powerful. Must be one of the advantages of frightening others and practically suppressing them.

She smirked at herself and waited for something to happen. Preferably Kay getting ready to make a move. After all, that was part of how they had gotten into this mess - everybody was somehow not reacting today. Especially not herself of course. That was why she seriously hoped her fake would scare the badger off, that way she might have repaid some of her debts in the current game to her team.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Looking around she saw that Gemma was still sitting in the same spot preparing the Transylvanian Tackle. "Gemma do what you need to do to get rid of her and lets get the show on the road." As Kaylee yelled this she moved into position to pull of the maneuver she'd now moved into position to pull off three separate times now.

"Three times now I've flown up and waited for everyone to move into position, and if Gemma doesn't move into position this time I'm taking the quaffle and scoring on my own." She mumbled to herself as she took the high route towards the Huffies goal posts. "Gemma you'd better follow or so help me..." She continued but didn't finish her thought.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

"Uh-oh", said Rose, loud enough fot the Slytherin chaser to hear. "Am I pissing you off? How rude of me!" She slowed her broom slowly to a hult, making a plan in her head as she did so.

"Are you actually going to hit me with the balled up fist of yours?" Rose began to make a circle around Gemma, getting gaster and faster. "How about you just toss the Quaffle over here, eh?"

[Slytherin Chaser]

Gemma heard Kaylee yell something about getting the show on the road, and guessing this was her clue to finally take off she turned around - ignoring the crazy Hufflepuff - just in time to see Kay speed up towards the goal posts. Seeing it unnecessary to punch - or fake punch - the opponent when she was going off to score anyway, she quickly turned her broom so it faced the Huffies' goal hoops and then took off after Kay, hoping to catch up with her quickly and to get the confusion thing to work even if people might have seen Kay on her way already. She leaned forward on her broom, forcing it to top speed, and held the Quaffle still secured under her arm, knowing that in order to pull off any kind of the Porksckoff Ploy she would need to fake scoring until the last second.

Feeling the wind against her face, she closed her eyes as much as possible and flew a few Woollongong Shimmy-like zigzagging movements in case the Huffie followed her, though she was afraid the new directions would distract Kay. No, surely Kay was as concentrated as ever. Glancing back, she figured Jamoki wasn't following their move and so she looked at the goal hoops again, as if thinking hard about which to go for. This should be enough to make the Keeper fall for their act, and so as soon as she was close to the hoops, still adverting her gaze from one to the other hoop, she got a good grip on the Quaffle with one hand, hauled off as if to score and then, all of a sudden, threw the ball soaring high into the air, up to the position where she suspected Kay to hover with her broom.

This better worked!, she thought as she snapped her eyes shut in order to not see what was going to happen now, crossing her fingers as she turned around nd upwards to fly to Kay's side.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Still flying on the high route Kaylee adverted her gaze from the goal posts in front of her and glanced down to see Gemma move into position below her. Smiling for the first time in what felt like hours, she watched and waited. With one final glance around she noticed that the Huffie chaser was still far to much behind to interfere with their plan, her smile grew even larger.

This might just be easier than I though it was going to be. With her as far back as she is I don't forsee her being to much of an issue.

Before she even had a second to think about it she looked up and saw that they were within mere yards of the Huffies goal posts, glancing quickly at the keeper she noticed that it was as suspected. It seemed the plan was working as it looked like the keeper was paying close attention to Gemma, the right goal post where Gemma was focused, and of course quaffle Gemma currently had clutched in her grasp. Without hesitation Gemma threw the quaffle up and Kaylee caught it as if she'd been doing this move for years.

Now smiling whole heartily she threw the quaffle, before the anyone even had a moment to figure out what had just happened. She threw it hard and straight toward the far left hoop. Before she closed her eyes and crossed her fingers she pulled her broom hard to the left so she didn't run into the keeper head on.

As she finished turning around she hovered in one spot and proceeded to wait to see if their plan had been a success or not. "It'd be their lucky day if they were to stop that from scoring, I don't think I've seen a better ploy pulled off since I've started playing this game." She mumbled to herself as Gemma flew over and waited next to her for what she knew was the inevitable ding of a score.

[Slytherin Seeker and Captain]

Cat continued looking for the golden ball. Luckily the other team’s seeker, Dani, didn’t seem to be having much luck finding it either, at least not yet. Soon she heard a familiar voice sound through the pitch. ‘So June is the commenter this game,’ she thought to herself. McGonagall wasn’t too happy with the late arrival and the fact that June didn’t know what was going on, which made Cat chuckle to her self.

As Cat looked around for the snitch she began humming to her self the Golden Ticket song from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. And yes she did mean Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, not Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Yes it was the one that went least with the books, but it was the original movie none the less.

After going through the song a few times Cat barely caught a glimpse of what seemed to be gold. Her face perked up and she sped in the direction she saw it.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Seeing a glimpse of Kay's throwing the Quaffle while flying up next to her, Gemma was sure that this would be a most successful goal. The keeper had seemed entirely concentrated on her as she had had the Quaffle until seconds before their try at scoring, and the Hufflepuff Chaser had probably been so distracted by her circling moves that she hadn't even had a chance to catch up with her and Kay in order to stop the Quaffle. This had to be scoring in the neatest way!

"So, now we need to discuss something else. Another move to pull off. Seeing as we needed ages for that last time, this time we should probably go for it before we can even retrieve the Quaffle. We need to work hard, if it happens somehow that Nutty doesn't catch the precious golden ball we need to make sure that we still win some way or the other!"

She told this to Kay and looked at her expectantly, hoping her partner in crime in this match would come up with an awesome move to sweep the badgers off their feet. Or better yet, of their brooms, so their way to scoring was free of obstacled. Giggling madly, she kept her gaze locked on the ground still to avoid seeing a Keeper with the Quaffle in hands - that'd be the death of her.

So I wonder how this little match will end. Will there be any more Huffies? Will there be any more spectacular goals from our team? Will I dangle upside down from my broom again? No, the latter might better not happen. But apart from that, I'm really excited about the ongoings. Especially this one: Will our third Chaser live for more than a few seconds once the Snitch was caught?

Now laughing out loud balefully, Gemma began going back to brooding about her plans for revenge, figuring that the intense negative feelings gave her the energy and creativity to come up with great moves and keep up the great performance of their team. They couldn't go losing now, so she really had to think of a move. Once she had enough negative energy within her mind from all the bloody images of payback, that was. Or maybe turning to Quidditch moves this very second was a better idea, so she did.

"Kay, you come up with any ideas already? And by the way, do you still have something to keep up my sugar supply? I think the shock burned all the carbohydrates in my system way too quickly!"

Suddenly distracted again, she turned away from her Banana Muffin to see just why her Little Nut had just gone zooming somewhere at top speed, only to find that she seemed to be following a glimpse of the golden treasure. This might be interesting!, she thought and watched her Captain follow the Snitch in amazement.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Still hovering with her eye's closed Kaylee heard Gemma and almost instantly began formulating a new plan. Opening her eye's but not looking at the goal posts still she turned to Gemma and handed her another handful of pixie stix. Opening a good 5 at once she dumped them into her mouth and pondered for a second.

Maybe we could use her hanging upside down move to pull off another goal. Once of us could always make it look like we flipped upside down by accident, while the other sweeps in and just before the other one is about to drop the quaffle swoops in grabs it and makes a complete 180. As the other is making the 180 the once hanging upside down person can sit back up right and then they will once again receive the quaffle before the keeper and the opposing chasers even have a chance to realize what's going on.

As she finished swallowing the last of her sugary substance she smiled as she thought she might just have an excellent idea for a new maneuver. Her only issue was that she had no idea what to call this play. Figuring that two heads would work better than one she explained her entire move to Gemma.

"Well what do you think? Does it sound good or no? I still haven't come up with a name for it, I was hoping you'd help me with that part." Kaylee finished as she proceeded to open up another 5 pixie stix. Shaking her broom back and forth she grew more and more anxious as she waited to hear weather or not they had scored.

(Slytherin Chaser)

I had taken all of Jamoki’s might not to leave the match after he had realized he had made a mistake by kissing Gemma’s cheek. It took him a while to zone back into the match after Kay’s explosion towards him. Once he had thought it over of not even worrying to do anything more foolish he looked for where Gemma and Kay were.

Once he seen them he gripped his broom and flew over to them. He didn’t fly fast because he was in by no means to scare them and get them even more mad at him. Once he was by them he made a little grunt noise to state he was there.

“So what do I do?” was all he could say.

He had feared to say something wrong and make them mad. The stern look Gemma had given him was still in his mind as fresh as it ever could be. So he looked at Kay hoping she wouldn’t explode again trying to avoid Gemma as she was clearly mad at him.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

Rose frowned as her opponit flew towards the Hufflepuff goals. She stuck her toungue out at Gemma like a two year old, then crossed her arms as they neared the goals, a plan clearly in there minds. The chaser watched to Quaffle fly towards the left goal. Or was it right?

"Gyah!" Rose hit herself in the head. To much was going on. Hopefully Dani would get that Snitch so Rose could go soak her feet in warm water and think of cruel ways to punish those Huffies who had not shown.

The Quaffle neared the goal, and Kate did nothing. "Kate, watch the ball!" Rose yelled, hoping it wouldn't be too late.

[Slytherin Chaser]

Hearing the ring signalling they had scored, Gemma screamed out in awe before returning to the problems at hand. She hadn't understood one word of what her Banana Muffin had explained to her, and just as she was trying to grasp the idea of her move, she heard a familiar voice break through her thoughts - Jamoki.

What shall I do now, what shall I do? Baaad situation. I guess I must make the best of this, it is after all a team game. No private problems should keep our house from winning!

Turning slowly to look at Jamoki with all the friendliness she could muster, even a smile, she found he seemed scared to look at her at all. Cringing at that inside and once more blushing as she found she might have been a little too harsh, Gemma smiled at him even harder and talked, unusually quiet. She wondered whether they would even notice she was speaking, as they might be used to her energetic, bouncy singing voice:

"Jamoki, don't just stare at Kay, please. We should be able to pull off this game as a team, strongly united like Slytherins are. And Kay, could you explain your move again? I didn't really get it somehow..."

Embarassed at her weakness and the slight tremble in her voice she hoped nobody had noticed, she trailed off.

(Slyhterin Keeper)

"GO get it in! Dont let that Huffie comes towards me because she is slowly making me mad." Violet whispered the last time. She knew that if the girl came towards her, she would try her best and catch the quaffle only to act like she would throw it to her team mates but hit her instead. No Violet, this is a game, dont try to kill anyone yet. Violet had seen Shadow hit a bludger towards the oher keeper but she avoided it.

(Hufflepuff CHaser)

"Rats", Rose sighed, then quickly grabbed the Quaffle before the Slytherins could, making her way back over to Violet.

(Slytherin Keeper)
Violet sat up. Dang that girl, she got it. Violet watched as the girl flew towards her, the quaffle in her hand. She would not let this girl score. Not if her life depended on it.

(Hufflepuff Chaser)

"The incy wincy spider climbed up the water spout..." Rose tried to keep her mind off the fact that there was about to be sevral angry Slytherin's on her tail. She kept her eyes glued on the goals, then realized that she had no plan to score.

"Hmmmm", Rose said, mostly to herself. "What to do, what to do..."

(Slytherin Keeper)
"Tic toc tic toc. Im waiting brat."Violet said. Could this girl be any slower, Violet thought. And having Slytherin's behin her was not good either. They could probley steal it in a blink of an eye

(Huffie Chaser)

Rose frowned. "Could you be any more impatent? You want to ball, here!"

Rose tossed the Quaffle into the air, then did a flip forward, with perfect timing and sent the ball hurling towards the middle goal, right above Violet's head. It was moving really fast.

(Slytherin Keeper)
Violet saw the ball coming towards her. Being prepared, she saw it go above her head. Oh no you dont. She thought and flew up. Right as the ball went to go in, Violet caught it. Smirking she looked at Huffie.

"Told you so." She said and threw it towards Kay. "Here you go. Make the best"She told her.
