Gryffindor Practice Game

Chloë had been on Sully’s tail and even though they were on different teams for now she might have wanted him to score. Someone needed to score. Slightly annoyed that he managed to scoop up the quaffle again she shot forward to keep up with him, carefully watching for a possibility to intercept. At least in a real game she would be happy with him taking possession of the quaffle again.
 
Sully spotted Chloë right behind him, sparing a moment to stick out his tongue at her as he shot towards the hoops. He was still half looking over his shoulder, trying to see if he could show off without really aiming his shot, disappointed when it didn't make it in. "Whoops," He said sheepishly to Chloë.
 
Lysander floated around and kept his eyes peeled for another bludger, torn between wanting to hit one himself or pointing it out to Emma so he wasn't stealing them all anytime they came close by.
 
Chloë returned the favour of sticking her tongue back out at Sully as she sped after him towards the hoops. She couldn’t suppress a chuckle at his reaction when he didn’t make the goal. This time she easily caught the quaffle as Christian threw it back into the game, looking around for Knox as she tightly held onto it and moved away for a small lap.
 
Willow kept flying. She saw Sierra looking at the other side of the pitch to her. And what looked like the chasers and keeper have a convoluted game of catch. vood try sully she called as the chaser failed to score again. come on chloe she added. She knew the chaser was not on her team. But she could still encourage her. She then spotted a glint of gold down below her about a third of the way down the pitch. She bowed her head and started towards it. However by the time she reached the spot that it had been it was gone.
 
Lysander swung his bat idly through the air, listening to it whistle through the wind as he flew along. He'd been watching Willow zip along, half expecting another quick catch, and wasn't sure whether to be happy or sad whenever she wasn't stopping to hold up the snitch.
 
Willow kept flying. her eyes looking for the snitch. as she searched she dew closer to lysander and caught him wathcing her she paused near to him and stuck her tongue out. "do i take it i will be your next target? good luck." she called before flying of again.
 
Chloë smiled at Willow’s encouragement as she continued making her way towards the hoops. She knew they weren’t on the same ‘team’ right now, so she appreciated the support. The girl shot a quick glance towards the other chasers as she raced forward.
 
Willow kept flying. But could not see the snitch.
 
Lysander chuckled at Willows comment. "Just you wait!" He laughed, and flew off to take her up on her challenge.
 
Gaining in on the hoops Chloë aimed up her shot and took it, disappointed when once again she didn't manage to score. So far it didn't look like team chaser was doing all that well.
 
When the quaffle was thrown back into the game and Noel caught it, Knox flew after him, trying to also stay near Chloe so if either of them intercepted they could pass the quaffle around easily. He was pleased when Lysander managed to hit a bludger Noel’s way but couldn’t keep himself from frowning when Willow caught the snitch, scoring 150 points for the gold team. Trying not to let it bother him too much, Knox continued to follow Noel, smiling a little when Noel didn’t manage to score. When the quaffle was thrown back into the game and Chloe caught it, Knox flew near her to support her if she needed it, frowning when her shot was also saved. He continued flying, following Sully who had possession of the quaffle next, and frowning further after Sully managed to get passion again after a failed attempt to score. Knox needed to be in a better head space and focus on the game rather than letting his emotions get to him, so when Chloe eventually had the quaffle again, he followed her, sighing when she also didn’t manage to score. “That was a good try!!” Knox shouted to encourage his teammate, as he flew back a little to see what happened when the quaffle was thrown back into the game.​

OOCOut of Character:
ahh there's so much to catch up on =))
 
Noel was glad that the other team chasers hadn't scored yet. But on the other hand they were one team and they needed to score. So when Chloe missed and the quaffle was tossed back in the game he saw an opportunity to take posession since no one else took it. He put it under his arm and hoped that he could avoid the bludgers again this time. His arm hurted still a bit but he was a fighter. He looked out to see where Sully was flying hoping he would back him up.
 
Lysander caught up to a bludger and swung his bat, aiming in Willows general direction, though his hasty aim sent it shooting wildly off in the wrong direction instead.
 
Emma was struggling a bit trying to keep up with the bludgers, but it seemed like team gold was doing better than them which frustrated her greatly. She followed the bludger Lysander had just hit, but her own hit missed it entirely. Emma felt tears burn in her eyes. They were going to kick her off the team if she didn't do better.
 
Willow kept flying her eyes scanning for both the snitch and bligers headed her way. she made her way towards the hoops when a bludger came flying past her she looked back to the young beater. "Good try summers. better luck next time" she called back looping around the back of the beater before heading back to looking for the snitch.
 
Chloë smiled and gave Knox a nod in appreciation of his encouragement. She flew up to him to see which one of the other chasers would gain possession of the quaffle, easily turning to start following Noel when he grabbed it. She knew they were on different 'teams' but secretely hoped that the next person who would go for a goal would actually get it. Someone on their little chaser squad had to score soon or they might start getting discouraged. At least their keeper was doing a solid job.
 
Noel tried to get to the hoops and when he got close he threw but it went wide. Noel was frustrated. Why didn't it work! But looked at the other chasers for a moment. '' Come on chaser squad!'' He tried to keep things motivated.
 
keeping her eyes open the blue-haired seeker kept searching it seemed like the bugger had mde his bid for freedom after beifn released as there was still no sight of it.
 
Jacob grinned at Willow though he was much to far to hit her five. Instead, he flew on watching the team in action. At one point, he grew a little overwhelmed by his emotions and had to lift his goggles to wipe at his eyes, but he hoped the team would just put it off to him having a bug in one of the them. In spite of the goggles. Jacob swung at a bludger, sending it away from him.
 
Willow kept flying wondering where the snitch was. As she flew her mind wandered thinking about how nice it was to be back on the pitch. And how good the team was even if they weren’t scoringa lot of points today they worked well together. And to if her brother would ever take a place on the hufflepuff team.
 
Lysander chuckled to himself when he heard Willows comment, and followed along behind her to get a clearer shot.
 
Noel didn't manage to score either and Chloë scooped up the quaffle as it was thrown back into play, seemingly even more determined than before. She went around for a lap, her eyes searching for the other chasers for a second to see if there was any possibility she might be able to pass it over to Knox.
 
Sully flew with Noel, willing him to score as he approached the hoops. The shot missed though and Sully gave Noel a sympathetic shrug, following after Chloë as she took the quaffle next. "C'mon, Chaser squad!" He said, mimicking Noel.
 
Lysander was not coming across any bludgers in his course of tailing Willow, though he paused his search as Sully echoed Noels's shout. "Woo, Beater squad! Let's go!" He responded, waving his bat enthusiastically toward the other two beaters. He was feeling quite pleased with himself over hitting more bludgers than the chasers had scored goals so far. He just hoped he'd do just as well in the next real match.
