On The Pitch...Working Out

[Katalina Harker]

After studying for about three hours Kat decided that she needed a break. She left her books and notes where she had been sitting on her bed and pulled on a pair of shorts and a tank top with an over sized t-shirt on top of the tank along with her tennis shoes. Her hair was getting longer again which meant it was being unruly so she pulled it up in a messy ponytail on top of her head. Kat grabbed her Scarlet Streak from the corner and headed down the stairs and out of Gryffindor house.

It was a beautiful Spring day out and there was a slight breeze blowing across the school grounds. Perfect day for flying she thought to herself as the sun beat down on her back as she walked into the stadium. When she hit the sideline of the pitch Kat mounted her broom and kicked off, starting slow at first but picking up speed the higher she got. She leaned all the way forward, pushing to the fullest speed she could possibly achieve, the wind chapping her cheeks, but it felt so good.

Kasey had just completed her long Arthimacy homework on the Growth Number and was tired, her eyes feeling like boiled potatoes reading the small handwriting all day long. She decided to refreshen herself for a bit so she took a quick shower and wore white capris and a shocking pink, short sleeved shirt to go with her capris. Running a comb through her hair, she tied them into a nice pony and then took out her favorite thing, her firebolt.

She usually liked to dive from the Ravenclaw Common room and go to the Qudditch Pitch instead of walking down seven stories and going to the pitch. She mounted her firebolt and then dived from her dormitory window. Air blew into her face, making a strand of hair fall on her face. She smiled, she always loved this feeling. It was a nice day for flying. As she came close to the pitch, she gripped her broon tighter and slowed down her speed as she noticed one of her classmates flying. "Hey Kat, whats up?"she said with a smile as she flew towards her friend.

Kat was doing laps around the pitch, pushing herself to go faster and gain as much speed as was possible. She loved flying and thought that there was nothing better than the feeling she got when she was in the air...well with one exception. A grin spread across her mouth as she thought about that one exception and how happy he made her. Kat was pulled from her thoughts by a voice addressing her. She slowed her pace and looked to see Kasey, one of her classmates and fellow prefect. "Hey Kasey! I guess we're up!" she joked and had to laugh at how bad the joke was. "What's up with you?"

Kasey smiled as the sun shone into her eyes. She laughed at Kat's answer. "I thought I do some practise before the tryouts" she replied. Kasey had indeed been wanting to play for the Ravenclaw team again but her chances seemed low with so many transfers flooding the school and on top of all that she had not practised for almost a year now.

"You speed is amaizing" she told Katlina. Kasey had noticed this when she entered the Qudditch Pitch. "What position do you play?"she asked her. Kasey remebered that Kat played for the Gryffindor team. "I am really nervous about the tryouts tomorrow, have been out of practise for a long time now" she told Kat what she felt at the moment.

"Thanks. I love the exhilaration I get from flying don't you?" she said zealously. "Chaser, but fill in for whatever they need me to play. You?" Kat asked curiously, trying to get a feel for the competition.

 

[Kasey Blake]

"Yes, its great" she said with a smile. "I played chaser too" she said reffering to her previous years. "I will try out for the same" she added with a smile. "You want to practise scoring, we can take turns to be chaser and keeper" she offered Kat.
