Gryffindor Practice Game

Chloë scooped up the quaffle and Sully was right on her tail. If he was lucky, he could nab the quaffle from her or Knox before they got a chance to score again.
 
Chloë noticed that there was no way she was going to be able to pass the quaffle to Knox without being intercepted, but she was almost tempted to try anyway. She shot her teammate an apologetic look as she decided she wasn’t just going to hand the quaffle to the gold team. Instead, she continued her way towards the hoops and aimed for the right one this time which didn’t turn out like she had wanted to as their keeper managed to catch it. She quickly got back in position to see which one of the other chaser’s would go for it.
 
Sully was a little glad that Chloë had just turned into a scoring machine now, as much as he wanted to chaser squad to show off, it'd be more fun if he was the one doing it. Flying in, he scooped up the quaffle, keeping an eye on where the other chasers were.
 
Still embarrassed about hitting her own team member, Emma was searching for a bludger to hit. She chased after one, but failed to hit it.
 
Lysander followed behind Sully as he took possession of the quaffle and attempted to hit a bludger this way, though it sailed over him instead.
 
Sully was surprised when he had Lysander following him to the hoops, trying to shake him off some as a bludger shot past his head. "Woah, close one," He breathed, before moving to take a shot at the goals. Sticking his tongue in concentration, Sully groaned when he didn't make the shot again.
 
Willow saw one of her teams chasers score a goal
She flew towards him good one noel
she then kept looking for the golden snitch
She needed to find the little thing
 
Willow thought she saw a glint
Towards the north of where they play
She flew and looked she had to squint
And the Ball it got away
 
Knox followed Noel as the quaffle was thrown back into the game, relieved when Noel failed to score. Next Chloe caught the quaffle, managing to get it into one of the hoops. Knox cheered for his friend, smiling, and swerving to chase Sully who scooped up the quaffle next. He swerved again when Sully passed to Noel, trying to keep on their tails for a chance to intercept. Fortunately, it wasn’t needed when Noel failed to score. Chloe managed to catch the quaffle again when it was thrown back into the game and Knox followed behind her in support, cheering again for Chloe when she scored a second time. He was so happy she was having some success but winced when she was hit with a bludger soon after. Knox flew near her to check if she was alright, before speeding off to follow Sully who had the quaffle again. He did his best to follow whoever had the quaffle at a time, frowning when Noel managed to score and further the Gold team’s lead. He followed Chloe again whos shot was saved once again by Christian who was clearly on a roll. Knox had to admit if anything he was glad their keeper was on top of his game. Sully was the next chaser to make an attempt to score and failed, and as soon as possible Knox swerved in to catch the quaffle when it was thrown back into the game. With the quaffle tucked under his arm Knox turned around to fly a lap around the pitch.​

OOCOut of Character:
Ahh there's a lot to catch up on, I should be more active now!
 
Sully stayed close as Knox took possession of the quaffle. So far the only chasers that hadn't scored yet were him and Knox, so if Sully could get a chance to steal the quaffle now, it would make him look way better than if Knox managed to score. Sully knew he was way to cool to be the last chaser on the team to score. Cause he was going to score, he just knew it.
 
Sierra was starting to feel frustrated that she couldn't find the snitch anywhere.
 
As Knox flew he tried to be mindful of Sully flying nearby, not wanting to be distracted or let Sully steal the quaffle from him. Knox also kept an eye out for Chloe, considering passing the quaffle to her, she had successfully scored twice that practice already and Knox did not want to risk failing another shot for team Scarlet.​
 
Chloë was glad Knox caught the quaffle. She tried to get as close as possible to keep Sully away from the quaffle so Knox could go for a score.
 
Spotting another bludger, Lysander broke slightly away to catch up with it. With Sully following after Knox, it was risky to make a shot, but Lysander was feeling pretty confident with himself. He didn't want to give the Gold team a chance to steal, so he swung his bat and successfully managed to clip @Solomon Tofilau with the bludger, hoping it would be enough to get him off Knox's tail.
 
Chloe was nearby which reassured him, and he was about to pass to her when Sully was hit by a bludger. Making the most of the opening he was given, Knox decided to go for it and attempt another goal, turning to speed towards the hoops. He threw the quaffle in the center hoop with all his might, swearing under his breath when it was saved. He resolved to pass to Chloe again next time, as he swerved to follow whoever caught the quaffle when it was thrown back into the game.​
 
Willow paused and watched iven shoot
She smiled when he he missed he was team red
And it was for the gold team that she would root*
If they didn’t get knocked out by a bludged to the head


* (in not the Australian meaning of the word)
 
Chloë scrunched up her nose when Sully was hit by a bludger. On the one hand she was glad it gave Knox an opening to go for it, but then on the other it was the second time he'd been hit a bludger and she knew it must hurt. She respected the bludgers as part of the game, but she didn't think she'd ever be happy to see someone get hit. Happy about it slowing down their opponent in a real match? Ues. Happy to see someone get hurt? Not so much. She gave Knox a thumbs up when he didn't manage to score as a way of saying it was a good effort whilst she waited for someone to scoop up the quaffle.
 
Willow watched as Sully was hit by a bludger
she flewt towards him "are you okay mate"
she could feel the throb of where hers had hit her
she just wished finding the snitch was part of her fate

sorry the rhymes are getting worse and worse
 
(I feel like this should be allowed by now taking rule 2b into consideration and all right?)

Chloë decided she wasn't going to make it easy on the team gold chaser's anymore, swooping in right before either Noel or Sully could catch the quaffle and swerving to make her way opposite of the hoops. "If you want it, come and get it!" She laughed as she flew off with it, trying to up the friendly competition just a bit.
 
(Yeah sure! I think so)

Noel smiled to Willow as she complimented him. '' Thanks Willow!'' He than said with an big smile. Happy that he could do something next to her getting the snitch already. They were in the lead still. Noel made a painfull face when Sully got hit. '' Okay dude?'' He than yelled and flew closer. He was distracted a bit and after Knox failed to score he raised to Chloe who got the quaffle. He grinned this was so on! He flew fast towards her trying to get an chance to steal the quaffle away. '' I'm on my waaay!'' He than yelled towards Chloe with an grin on his face.
 
Sully had been having fun chasing down Knox right until the bludger collided with him. His broom spun and Sully did his best to just hold on, hissing a string of curses once he managed to right him. Thankfully Knox missed the shot, but Chloë was able to grab the quaffle again before he or Noel could get to it. "Yeah, I'm good," He assured the team Gold members, rubbing his shoulder ruefully. The second hit had definitely stung more than the first one had, but Sully rolled his shoulders, trying to focus back on the game and chasing after Chloë
 
Chloë laughed as the game seemed to be back on and Noel seemed determined to steal the quaffle away from her. She checked behind her for a second to see if Sully was following as well after being hit pretty hard and was glad to see he was. With both of them behind her she knew she had to be careful as she made her way towards the scoring area, yet still debated whether she should opt for trying to pass the quaffle to Knox or not.
 
Lysander flew up behind the chasers tailing after Chloë and batted another bludger toward Noel to try and shake him off, but his swing felt wonky and the bludger pased him and hit @Chloe Thompson instead. "I'm sorry!" He called out. They'd all been so close together. He fell back, waiting for a chance to get a clearer shot next time.
 
Sully flinched when a bludger zipped nearby, passing Noel and hitting Chloë. He felt for her, he knew how bad that hurt, but he hoped she could still hold onto the quaffle, even if it meant Team Scarlet potentially scoring again. If she was going to lose possession, Sully wanted it to be because of him or Noel. "Damn, you're deadly with that thing," He commented over his shoulder to Lysander.
 
Chloë had been closing in on the hoops when she noticed a now more familiar whistling sound closer to her than she liked. Before she could even try and avoid the bludger though it smashed right into her. This time tears sprang into her eyes almost instantly and with this new sensation of pain in combination with the still lingering ache in her shoulder it was hard to hold them back. Somehow she still managed to hold onto the quaffle and she clenched her jaw as tight as she could, trying to bite back the pain as she swerved and threw the quaffle towards one of the hoops with as much strength as she could muster, not expecting much if it but still wanting to show she wasn’t going to let getting hurt stop her. Now that she had an arm free she clutched her side, so preoccupied with managing the pain that she barely registered she had actually managed to score a third time.
