Gryffindor Practice #3

Sierra kept her eyes glued to the pitch, learning that she had to focus and not watch the game. Spotting a glint of gold, Sierra grinned and zoomed after it, flying as fast as she could to catch up with it, even though it sensed her coming and flew away! After a couple of moments, Sierra caught up and managed to close her fingers around the snitch. "Got it!" She exclaimed before holding up her closed hand to show the snitch hanging out there.
 
Even though for now they were on different teams Chloë still cheered Noel and Sierra on for a second when he scored a goal and she caught the snitch. She then quickly turned back to the game and scooped up af the quaffle as it was thrown into play, tucking it under her arm and turning to do a little lap around the pitch.
 
Sully was having fun duking it out with Chloë as they approached hoops, though he tried to stay open incase Noel needed to pass. Noel was able to get in a sweet shot though and Sully joined him in cheering, offering him a high five as Noel flew past. Sierra also managed to catch the snitch and Sully let out another cheer. "Team Gold crushing it!" He called before Chloë grabbed the quaffle next and Sully was back onto to tailing her.
 
Just before she reached the other end of the pitch Chloë turned around to head back towards the hoops their keeper was guarding, trying her best to avoid Noel and Sully as she turned. She looked around to see what Knox’s position was before speeding up a little as she headed back in the direction of the scoring area.
 
Sully was doing his best to stay on Chloë's tail as she headed back towards the hoops, trying to stay between her and Knox and keep his eye open for any chance to intercept.
 
As much as Chloë wanted to make things difficult for the team gold chasers they seemed to do the same to her, leaving her with no solid opportunity to try and pass the quaffle along to her teammate. Instead she went for the hoops again. This time her shot at least followed the course she had aimed for it, but was stopped by their keeper nonetheless.
 
Sierra grinned at the others before closing her eyes tight as she let go of the snitch, waiting a while before reopening her eyes to look for it again.
 
Sully pulled up as Chloë made her shot, disappointed that Christian was able to block it even if Chloë was technically on another team for practice. Grabbing the quaffle as it was thrown back, Sully didn't waste any time shooting back off up the pitch, trying to put some distance between him and Team Scarlett.
 
Sierra reminded herself she had to focus on finding the snitch, and not what was happening in the game, even though it was very tempting to watch the others playing - they were so good! But she tore her eyes away from the players, just in time to see a bludger approaching, which she quickly moved out of the way of. Phew!
 
Willow made her way to the quidditch pitch excited for training it would be her last training before one of her last games. She listened as jacob introduced the new captains. It was a good choice. Lysander was great. He had really proven himself even if he was only a third year he was one of the team’s strongest players. And Sierra had improved so much. It was her fault that the girl had never had a permanent position on the main team. But she was good and she never complained about it. you go guys.she said raising her hands for a nigh five. Before jacob introduced the teams. She transfigured her top scarlet. She took to the air and did a slow lap while keeping her eyes open for the snitch
 
Sully knew the Scarlet chasers had to be close by, but he kept his eyes open for a good chance to pass to Noel as he darted back down the field, heading for the hoops.
 
The game seemed to be going well, and Sierra hoped that their actual games would be like that as well. She continued to fly about, before spotting a golden glint in the distance again. She wondered if maybe she hadn't closed her eyes for long enough? Still, she wanted her team to win, so she zoomed towards the snitch again, zigzagging around the field before being able to close her hand around the snitch, lifting it up in the air shouting "Got it!" again, with a huge grin.
 
Willow watched as Sierra caught the snitch for a second time. She really was going to be great when she finally got a go on the main team. She watched as it flew away from her gave it a minute before she started looking again. But it had had enough of a head start to vanish.
 
(2a)

As soon as Sully caught the quaffle Chloë started her chase, trying to keep an eye on where Noel was as well. She wasn’t just going to let them have another shot that easily. When she heard Sierra call out she caught the snitch again Chloë pushed forward, hoping that would be enough to distract Sully for a moment so she could steal the quaffle from him. In her moment of determination she actually managed to get possession of the quaffle, swerving to the side with a chuckle once she did to get away from him.
 
Willow kept looking for the snitch. But there was no sign of it. After a couple of minutes she drew her attention to watch the rest of the team. She would miss them next year.
 
Lysander was quite pleased when Sierra caught the snitch twice, and so quickly. She wasn't on his team for the practice, but it was nice to know they wouldn't have any trouble once Willow graduated. He gave her a thumbs up, and continued to hunt bludgers.
 
After swerving to get away from Noel and Sully, Chloë started making her way towards the hoops. She made sure the quaffle was safely tucker under her arm and kept an eye out for Knox as she pushed forward.
 
Willow kept flying and saw a glint of gold. she flew towards it hoping to get at least one catch in but unfortunately it flew off.
 
Lysander flew close by Chloë, as tough as she was to keep up with, with the intention of keeping her clear of any bludgers, or chasing off Sully and Noel with any that came nearby.
 
Chloë tried to keep some distance between her and the other team’s chasers as she made her way closer to the hoops. Once she was close enough she took her shot, softly letting out a discontent sound when it didn’t manage to make it through the hoops again. She turned around to get back in position, giving the others a small shrug as she did.
 
Sierra continued to fly around the pitching, trying to focus on finding the snitch again.
 
Lysander pulled back as Chloë tried to score, and hovered on the spot while he waited to see who'd take the quaffle next.
 
Willow kept flying trying to see the snitch. But not much was going on. After sierras good start it seemed that they were in a quiet patch. She watched as chloe took a shot on goal and let out a groan when she missed. Before continuing her search for the snitch.
 
The team flew well, and as Noel scored Jacob grinned. His grin widened at how well Sierra was playing. He took a swing at a bludger, sending it flying but not close enough to hit anyone. Jacob was happy with practice so far. They really did have a good chance at the championship.
 
Willow kept flying. and looking for a snitch but there was nothing he did a lap of the pitch her eyes open looking out for the snitch but also watching everyone else. flying after balls red black and gold.
