Gryffindor quidditch practice S1Y51

Kaysi found another bludger and took a swing at it, satisfied by the loud crack as her bar connected. She watched with a smile that turned horrified as it connected with a team gold chaser @Tessaria Carter. She needed to do a better job of keeping track of who was on her team. "Sorry!" She shouted, cheeks red with embarrassment.
 
For a moment Felix thought he was in danger, but (unfortunately for her) Kaysi hit one of her own team instead. He'd gotten away with it, for now.
 
Flying toward the new younger Chaser that had just gotten hit by a bludger, the prefect wanted to see if she was alright, "How you doing there Tess?" he called out, shielding his eyes from the sun light.
 
Daviana was ready to block Ivy's shot, but somehow, the girl managed to get the quaffle right past her. Frustrated, she flew down to get the quaffle as it fell before tossing it back into play.
 
Felix continued his search for the snitch, flying slowly through the air.
 
Tess was a little nervous for the first practice as a chaser on the team. She mounted her broom when instructed and held back a little as the practice game began. As a bludger came racing towards her, she froze, unable to dodge it as it collided instantly with her left hip. The beater who was from the same team apologised and Tess waved her hand to say it was all fine. It became a little embarrassing however as Felix then asked if she was okay. "I'm fine!" she exclaimed before deciding she would be the next one to take the quaffle. She dove down to collect it, ignoring the throbbing pain in her side, and flew back towards the middle of the pitch.
 
Felix swerved past an incoming bludger, trying not to get hit this early on before continuing his search.
 
As Tess made it back towards the hoops, she pushed on before finally attempting to score. She aimed for the hoop furthest to the right but unfortunately the keeper easily blocked her shot.
 
Felix was vagely aware of what was going on, but primarily he was focused on his search.
 
Miles was eager for another year of Quidditch and equally eager to try and put on a good showing this year. He'd have a bit of bad luck with scoring and he was determined to try and do better. He hung back at first, observing the other chasers, but after their newest teammate failed to score, Miles swooped in to scoop the quaffle up before the red team could get their hands on it instead.
 
Felix was humming to himself as he flew through the air.
 
Miles attempted his first shot of the match, but was disappointed when he ended up missing. This was not a very good start.
 
As long as Felix caught the snitch more than Aroha then he was happy.
 
Ivy hung back. watching as the game panned out. it was good watching how players interacted in a competition. She heard a thwack of a bat and looked around to see who had hit it and who was being hit. half expecting to feel the contact herself. she saw Tess get hit. "are you okay there" she called out at the same time as felix called somethign similar. good hit Kaysie" she called to the beater. focusing on how good a hit she had and not on the fact that she had hit a team mate. she knew beaters couldnt always control the path of bludgers. She watched the chasers for a while taking shots and was pleased to see that after the first miss Daiana was doing a good job of saving them. "nice save"" she said as she flew forward to take the pass in before moving up the pitch.
 
Daviana was prepared this time, and as Tess came forward with her shot, Daviana hit it away with her broom. Before she had a chance to recover, the other chaser came towards her, this time just missing the hoops entirely. The keeper flew down to grab the quaffle and tossed it back into play to Ivy.
 
Miles kept close to Ivy after she got the quaffle, seeing if he could have a chance to intercept the pass
 
Daviana prepared herself for the next quaffle, ready to block it.
 
Felix was trying to focus on his task but he could feel tension on the rest of the pitch.
 
Daviana was distracted by a bug for a moment, but she quickly refocused on the quaffle coming towards her.
 
Daviana stayed alert.
 
Felix decided to go back to his regular tactic of pretending he didnt want to find the snitch. It usually came to him that way.
 
Kaysi was relieved that no one seemed terribly upset with her. She tried to swing at another bludger but missed completely.
 
Who was looking for the snitch? Felix wasn't looking for the snitch..
 
Felix circled the pitch, watching the other players.
