Slytherin Quidditch Practice Y49 | S1

Sybil was hoping this would be her time, but it wasn't.
 
Echo swooped in to grab the quaffle, tucking it under her arm and heading back toward the hoops.
 
Kanako failed to hit a bludger. She was faintly annoyed.
 
Alana didn't hit anything.
 
Echo reached the hoops, and pretending the keeper was her Ravenclaw sister, she aimed her throw directly at them. She still missed though.
 
Ignatius too lamented that there were no alternates to take the hits. It reeked of a lack of ambition amongst the other Slytherins as well as poor management from the captains. He took a moment to catch his breath from the rapid hits in succession, his chest and arms stinging.
 
The lamentation didn't make the snitch appear in solidarity, unfortunately.
 
Ignatius willed himself to go on, knowing he'd be sore tomorrow.
 
Ignatius wiped his eyes, which were watering slightly.
 
Echo was glad she wasn't a seeker, being pelted like that. Once had been enough. Approaching the hoops she did her best to score again and grinned as she finally earned the team some more points.
 
Echo waited for one of the other chasers to grab the quaffle, flying close to them in case they dropped or passed it.
 
Ignatius didn't see the snitch, and he was annoyed about it.
 
Sybil clapped as Echo made a goal. She hoped some of that luck might rub off on her as she grabbed the quaffle.
 
Ignatius bit his tongue in frustration, and let out a groan of pain.
 
Kanako swung and missed once more.
 
Ignatius wondered if he'd made the snitch actually vanish when he'd let it go.
 
Sybil sighed as she approached the hoops to try again but missed.
 
Not much was changing, so Ignatius flew a little higher.
 
Kanako scowled, once again failing to hit the bludger.
 
Echo knew missing was frustrating. She grabbed the ball when it was thrown out, glancing to see if a chaser nearby wanted another go.
 
Kanako couldn't believe it - she'd missed again.
 
Nobody else seemed to be having any luck, at least. Ignatius still wasn't.
