Professor Styx had put up a notice for those interested in Quidditch in the Slytherin house to come before him and try out. Kalif was not a player himself, nor had he been one, but his family knew enough about the game to tell where the talent lies and where it does not. Before him was the Quidditch case, containing two bludgers, a snitch, and a quaffle. The ones interested in trying out better arrive soon, or else he would just cancel Slytherin participating in the cup this year.

Well, Kalif wouldn't care much about the cup, but his house did. Alas, why he was standing here today. The black robes fluttered about his tall form, and he waited for those older than age eleven to show. First years cannot try out, for they didn't even have their flying lessons in. Kalif would simply send any first year away, regarding whether or not they knew how to fly. Time ticked, and Kalif started to grow impatient. Not only would he have to pick the captain this year, but he would also see if the team needed two Captains and he would have to choose each individual player.

OOC: You must be a second year and older to apply. Do not post here if you are a first year. Otherwise, good luck to those who wish to play in Quidditch as of Y10.
 
Theodore had to admit that he was a bit pumped that Quidditch was going to start back up again this year, as time consuming as it was most of the time he had to admit that it was a regular hobby of his. All of last year he had been practicing to improve his skills even more, he had to admit that he was a pretty skilled Beater most of the time he played and other times he was just a tad too much on the lazy side to really do all that much. At the games and practices he was a beast though, maybe having someone to practice with gave him more of a reason to get active. Grabbing all of his newly bought Quidditch supplies, he head down to the Quidditch Pitch where the tryouts were being held today. The first thing his emerald green eyes caught sight of was Professor Styx, he was still getting used to the man being their Head of House.

"Hello Professor." He greeted the man curtly, knowing he wasn't really one for conversation or anything. Theodore actually didn't mind him so much anymore, he actually sort of looked up to the man in some weird way. His biggest shock and change of mind towards the man was when he found out he was Prefect, he wouldn't question it though and merely just accept his title with pride. "I want to try out for the Beater position, if absolutely necessary I could also play Keeper." Theodore stated once more as he put his broom and Beater's bat onto the grassy ground to put his Quidditch gloves on quickly. He actually didn't like the Keeper position all that much, but if there was nothing else left and all the others were better than him he supposed he had no choice than to be happy with just that. Plus Aleyha was trying out for Quidditch this year, he thought it would be kind of cool to see if she made the team, actually it would just be interesting to see her play all together. Waiting for the others to arrive he crossed his arms over his chest and remained silent, he was wanted to get these tryouts over and done already.
 
"I can try out for keeper instead, so Theodore won't have to take it." Azerail showed up, wearing his casual outfit and carried a broom by his side, given to him by Grezhen. Azerail turned toward Professor Styx and smiled wearily. Azerail stood his ground firmly, and he was actually much taller than Theodore, even though Theodore was older than him by a year. Azerail shrugged lightly, knowing that he got his tallness from his father. Azerail clinched the broom, and wondered if he should even bother trying out yet. Maybe wait another year or so. But hey, he was a decent keeper from how much he practiced from time to time. "Greetings, Professor Styx," Azerail spoke, his head bowing slightly. His now silver eyes sparkled in the cloudy day's light. He just hoped that he would not make a fool of himself.
 
Aleyha rushed down to the pitch with her new broom in her hand and her multicolored hair flowing behind her. She panted as she said, "I'm here, and I'm trying out for Beater." Aleyha's gaze went to Theodore, and she smiled at him, looking angelic. He looked pretty hot with his red in his hair. Aleyha smirked, "Haha, so the Prefect decides to get a little bit violent. Isn't that for the troublemakers?" Aleyha gripped her broom, as she was ready to get up and go. It felt nice, to finally try out for the team. She had a new broom, a new hair do, and she was finally had muscles in her arms to be a beater. Unfortunate for those that she gets into fights with however. Aleyha's kicking was still strong, but now she had some power behind her arms.
 
Ally strolled down at the pitch as soon as she finished breakfast at the great hall, today is her day and no one will going to stop her from trying out for the team not even her best friend. Her Slytherin robe on her left shoulder she still not wore it because it will stick if she did while the try out isn't still starting. While walking, Ally has a time to tie up her hair and fixing her face. At last seeing her house mates in the field, she smiled and continued walking toward them. "Hello, I'm here to try out for chaser position." Ally said as she came nearer to Professor Styx their new Head of House. Ally doesn't like the man but he was appointed to their house and she can't do anything about it.
 
After hearing about the Quidditch tryouts the previous night, Daisy had become rather excited at the thought of being on the team. Sure, she was a Muggleborn - and ironically a Slytherin one at that - but she had shown a natural ability at Quidditch in her first year, and wished to be able to play more often. Being part of the team seemed like a good opportunity to her. Walking quickly onto the pitch, Daisy slipped into the small crowd gathered around Professor Styx. She didn't know the man too well, but presumed that he would be leading the Quidditch team this year. Or at least organising the tryouts.

"Hi Professor, guys," Daisy greeted everyone with a small smile. She didn't really know any of the other students trying out, but of course she recognised a few from class and the common room and such. Still, whether you were friends with someone or not, it still payed to be friendly. If their tryouts were successful, they would be playing Quidditch as a team for the next year, and you couldn't exactly ignore your teammates. Even if the majority were sun-hating emos. "Can I try out for seeker?" Daisy spoke in casual English, well aware that the correct term was 'may I try out for seeker'.
 
Alyss ran down to the Quidditch pitch her new broom in hand that her aunt had sent her in hopes of her making the Quidditch team and walked right up to the Professor pretending not to notice that all of the others surrounding her appeared to be fourth or fifth years. 'Hello sir,' she said inclining her head in his direction respectfully. 'I'd like to try out for Chaser.' It was hard for her to not notice that she was the shortest out of all of the others, and as she stepped back slightly, she felt conscious that her height and age might keep her back, even though she had shown a natural ability in flying last year. Ever since she was a little girl, she had loved flying and in her opinion Chaser was the best position to play. A tiny smirk was on her face as she imagined kicking others out of the way to get past them to shoot a goal. She wasn't going to hold back, that was for sure.
 
Milena heard that late afternoon that there will be a Quidditch try out, she rushed to the Quidditch pitch to catch up. This was unlikely for Milena to like Quidditch, but she was determined to be a part of the team. All students were lined up, she hurriedly went at the end of the line. Almost all of the students were older than her, but that didn't stopped her from still believing. "Good day Sir, I'm here to try out for the position of a keeper if there is a available space." she said as confident as she can't not trying to sweat up or something. Even as a little girl Milena had been very athletic, in the muggle world she even became the captain of their soccer team in grade school and she was even the goalie too. She closed her fists tightly praying she would somehow be accepted.
 
Larissa had seen the notice on the bulletin board, had bade a note of the date in her diary and had forgotten all about Quidditch. So it was, perhaps, fortunate that Ted had flown through the window that morning to steal the book. He often tried this and Larissa still didn't know why. "Ted!" she shouted, plucking the diary from his beak and glaring at him for a moment or two before she decided that she couldn't stay mad at such a handsome young raven.. Actually, Ted wasn't that young anymore.. He was at least four years old, now. Larissa had fallen in love with him just before her second year and he had been her loyal companion since. The two were inseparable and they would be for at least another ten years.

Tugging on her shoes, Larissa was dressed and ready. Today, she had gone for a more formal look, wearing a pair of black jeans, a comfortable pair of black shoes- as opposed to her 'goth' boots- a long sleeved white shirt and her hair tied back in a neat ponytail. She clutched her Nimbus 2001 in her hand as she walked onto the pitch to join the other students: Though she had played Quidditch for the last three years, she had played only as an alternative.. Yet, she had been in nearly every match. It was tough to pick which position to try out for but she had mostly played as a Chaser and Larissa felt that was where her heart lay.

Larissa turned to Professor Styx; a man she didn't quite fear but was very wary of. "I would like to try out for Chaser," she said, quickly remembering her manners and the badge fixed to the front of her shirt, "Sir." She added, stepping back and waiting for the try-outs to begin. Who knew, maybe now that she'd remembered the try-out date, she could actually get a fixed position on the team?
 
Hilde noticed the sign on the Slytherin board stating that Professor Styx was going to be running tryouts for the team. Having been on the team before, and wanting to be back on the team, she changed into a more appropriate outfit, including her robe from the previous team she was on. Grabbing her broom, she headed to the pitch quickly, not wanting to miss the start of the tryouts.

Making her way onto the pitch, she was not positive what position she wanted to play this time. She knew that she did great at seeker, her victory last time out was proof of that. Moving across the grass to where Professor Styx stood, she greeted him. "Hello Professor. I would like to try out for Seeker. If needed, I can also play as a Keeper or a Chaser." Hilde knew that she was not able to play as a Beater at all, but the other positions she was capable of. Over the break, she had been practicing with Xavier, and he gave her some major pointers and her game only has improved because of that. She stepped back, moving over to where the rest were standing, choosing to remain silent and focus herself for the activity at hand.
 
The Death Eater gazed over the students that had arrived, keeping their positions in his mind. It was a good thing that he had a good mind to remember it all. Today would be a busy day. He spoke, his voice cold and full of authority, "Fine, for those of you that have arrived, I want to see you fly around the pitch, from the north hoops to the south hoops, and ending from where you have started from twice. I need to see if you are even able to try out for the position that you wish. We cannot have anyone on the team that can't fly well." This would also assist him in being able to choose the alternates and the fixed players. "No rough play or trying to knock someone off of their broom while doing your laps, or else I will send you back to the dungeons." He didn't care how they were going to fly around the pitch, either one at a time or all at once, but no one better be knocking anyone to the ground.
 
The instructions were simple enough and Larissa, checking that nobody was within the swing of a broom of her, threw out her leg, mounting her broom. ".. One.. Two.. Three.." she breathed, counting up before she kicked hard off the ground, shooting up into the air. She stopped herself once she was there and looked about, once again, to see if there was anyone to collide with. All clear. She leant forwards, gently at first, easing into the pace. It was very tempting just to lean hard onto her broom, to speed through all obstacles in her way- which were only the other students, the stands and the hoops- but she felt that was a little irresponsible an now, this badge on her chest felt like it was burning at the very thought. Part of her wanted to throw it off, to swear and speed off, doing whatever she liked, part of her knew that it was time to grow up, with everything that had happened to her, and to become a mature young adult. The words made her feel sick, but Larissa controlled herself, flying carefully, and with great precision, around the edge of the pitch, twice, before coming back to land softly on the ground near the Professor.
 
Theodore was a little surprised that they would be starting off with drills first, but figured that Professor Styx’s way of holding Tryouts was effective enough. It would probably be wise to test their skills first, so see if they could even hold their own weight before they tried out for the position they wanted, surprisingly a few of the team members from lat years team came to try out too and he wondered if they would make the team again. He sort of wondered if he would still make it even, his skills could use some brushing up on so he would have to give it his best shot. Theodore flicked some of his blonde, now streaked with red before he winked and gave Aleyha a sly smirk, no doubt that she would dealt with later for her comment. He figured it was time to go out and show Professor Styx that he still had some skills and hopefully enough to keep his Beater Position.

Summoning his broom, he mounted it and used his gloved hands to grip the handle tightly. He took a moment to make sure he wouldn’t take anyone out or anything and gave a hard kick off the ground, within moments he was high up in the air and rearing to go. ’Gah I need to get better at steadying myself’ Theodore sometimes felt like he was going to fall when he went up to fast and took a second or two before he leaned forward on the Broom and sped off towards the South Hoops. As he spend around a few of the other fliers quickly he knew better than to hit any of them. Some of these people he actually liked and others were his future teammates and he had to respect them as if they were his friends. That’s what a team did and Theodore was far too old to be acting like some selfish brat. Luckily for Theodore he was able to fly with just one hand because he was used to carrying a bat in the other, he used it to push some of his hair away from his face as he started on his second round.

By the time he dodged and sped his way through another time and back to the hoops he had to admit that he was amazingly pumped to actually get started, he landed on the ground next to Professor Styx and dismounted the room, he waited for the next set of directions.
 
Aleyha took her broom in her hand, and she smirked over at the other people. She would have to fly with one hand to hold a beater's bat. Mounting, Aleyha quickly tied her long, green and white hair back. She was glad that she had chosen jeans and a long sleeved shirt and jacket for this occasion. It was quite nippy outside for those used to more hotter climates. Aleyha sped off, keeping her balance and speed in check with her new broom. First time flying on it seemed all right. The handling and speed was excellent. Shame she couldn't knock someone off of their brooms for the fun of it. She wanted to be on the team though. Aleyha curved around the north hoops and headed down to the south end of the pitch. She leaned forward, gaining even more speed. Soon, she swerved around the south hoops, and then completed her first lap. The second was even faster as Aleyha continued to fly with high speeds. Oh how fast she loved to fly! She finished with a great timing, and she head down and landed next to Theodore. Her feet touched the ground, and she wanted to just get back up in the air again. Aleyha waited for the next instructions.
 
Azerail took a deep breath at the instructions given to him. He murmured to himself, "You have done this many times before, and this is just another time." Azerail mounted his broom, making sure he was away from the others while doing so. He took off into the air, and before long, he was flying with his other possible or future teammates around the north hoops - how they knew which end was which was beyond him - and sped toward the south. Azerail glared at the hoops ahead, and he swerved around them, easily and not losing his balance. The only issue right now was his damned hair. With more sped as he completed the first lap, his hair was flying behind him too much to really have any concerns. Azerail was a good flyer, decent for someone his age and height. Azerail soon completed the second lap, and he landed on the ground with good precision, not stumbling or falling into someone else. He released a sigh, just hoping that the next drills would be just as easy, but he assumed they wouldn't be. Especially not with Professor Styx here to see what they were capable of.
 
Ally heard Professor Styx said to make a lap with the others from where they are and at the other side of the pitch. She wore her robes and as soon as the others started to mount their broom, she too mount her's and took a deep breath as she did so. This will be her first time flying with somebody watching her, Ally took off once everybody is on the air and steady herself when she got into the air, her balance was getting better and better as she took her time practicing all summer. Ally took a big breath and flew across the field with the others, Ally moved forward for the acceleration of the broom make it faster. And it was a bad thing to do it at the same time as she almost lost her balance and regain it back as she slowed down while turning at the center hoop of the South SA and going back at the North SA. After doing another lap around the field, Ally went back at the other end of the field where the others are just mounting off their brooms. She on the other hand hover for a second before coming down perfectly on the ground, she then unmount onto her broom and went back where she was standing earlier. "Well, that was easy." Ally mumbled to herself and checked her hair again.
 
Daisy listened intently as Professor Styx explained the excercise. It seemed easy enough, so she didn't get nervous. In fact, Daisy hardly ever got nervous or worried. She was actually too carefree for her own good, sometimes. Summoning her broom, the young girl was itching to fly. She had never been very patient, and tended to do things quickly, without thinking of the consequences. As the rest of the group shot up and into the air, so did Daisy. Kicking off the ground, she swiftly weaved between students, hoping to take the lead. It wasn't that she was exactly competitive, but she felt that as someone applying for the position of seeker, it made sense to try to fly as precisely yet quick as possible. That was what a seeker did, right?

As her blonde hair whipped past her eyes in the chilly wind, Daisy wished that she had remembered to tie it back. However, she hadn't thought that far ahead, so would just have to deal with the minor distraction. She leaned further forwards, and continued around the circuit. Speeding towards the hoops on her second run, the Slytherin realised that she should have slowed down to take the corner. It was too late now, so she just pulled hard on the broom handle, skidding in the air for a moment before shooting back towards the starting place. Her cheeks flushed from the cold air, Daisy landed safely, staggering a few steps before dismounting her broom. Smiling cheerfully, she waited to see what Professor Styx would say next.
 
Adira was Late but she didn't mind, she strolled down to the Pitch and Nodded to Professor Styx while holding her broom firmly in her hand.
The 5th Year's Emerald Green eyes blazed as she looked at the Sky "Beater as Per usual" she said to him as she watched a few other people go, "I'll Go then" she said as she mounted her broom.

Adira kicked off the ground and in a matter of seconds the Vicious Slytherin was in the Air, she soared to her starting point and quickly turned to hug her broom allowing her to vault through the sky with no problem at all.
As Adira reached the first Set of Goal Posts she moved into a barrel roll on her broom just for fun around the first post and then swerved around the other posts before continuing on her course back to the other end of the Pitch, her broom was flying nicely with grace through a sky, all she needed now was Andrew next to her and moment would be complete, but it wasn't time to think of andrew, Loosely holding on with one Hand Adira dropped her foot and quickly swerved around the other end hoops and started on her 2nd flight.
Adira's right hand was loosely by her side just flying along with her, her usual flight position when she was playing quidditch usually she was equipped with a beaters bat but this time no.
Adira finished her Final Lap with a Nice short time and Soared down to the ground and quickly dismounted and flung her broom over her shoulder. before walking back to the group and leaned on her broom.

"Next" she said as she waited.
 
Alyss was rather surprised that Professor Styx had wanted them to start off with drills and she supposed it was so he could see who was worthy enough to actually do the position they wanted, and who wasn't. As she kicked off with the others, she was near the front, leaning forward slightly and letting the wind push her forward even faster. She completed one lap, swerving around the hoops, and went even faster for the second lap. Since she was one of the youngest there, she knew that she had to impress the Professor, otherwise she had no chance on getting onto the team. With a small smirk when she finished alongside with the others who had been in the front, she dived down to the ground and dismounted quickly, making sure not to tangle her legs in the broom. Walking over to join the others, she smiled, satisfied with herself and waited for the others to come back, sure she had made a good impression.
 
Hilde listened to the instructions given and as soon as they were given the go ahead, she mounted her broom and took off. It seemed that most everyone flew at once which pleased her. It allowed her to show off her skills better. Flattening her self out on her broom, she flew at a relatively decent speed, picking up her pace as she looped around the goal posts. Hilde took off, showing her seeker speed as she moved through the other flyers, making sure not to bump any of them so as to be sent back to the dungeons. One lap down, the second to go, she kicked her speed up as fast as she could, making it back to the first set of hoops. Choosing to show her agility, she weaved through the three tall hoops before rejoining the pack near the front. She did the same again when she reached the second hoops. Ending the flight near the front, she landed gracefully, touching down with her green trainers softly on the ground.
 
Kalif's eyes glowered down at someone who had arrived late. Not a good impression for Ms Ater on his part. After examining those who did their laps, he took note in those who flew the most balanced and such needed for their position. Though Kalif was not a Quidditch expert, he knew what it took to be a good flyer at least. Common sense is aiding him for right now. Kalif spoke, "I would highly advise those that speak and act impatient to remain silent or else I will dismiss you from participating." Kalif did not tolerate people acting as if they belonged on the team as if it were their right, because it wasn't. It was a privilege. Now, to see if they are capable for their positions. "Hilde Lindstrom and Daisy Harrison, step forward first." Kalif summoned the snitch from the box of Quidditch supplies. He had brought another in case there was another trying out. Since there were two, he needed to see if either could even catch the snitch. "Once I release these, you have two minutes to find and catch the snitch. After that limit is up, and neither of you have caught it, you are given an extended amount of time." Kalif released the golden snitches and they zoomed high in the air.

"The ones that are trying out for Keeper, one of you fly to the south hoops and the other to the north. Keep grounded right now, for this drill will assist for two others as well. Larissa Sedgwick and Alyss Summers, when I say, I want you to take a quaffle, and I want you to attempt to score a goal. I will bring duplicate the quaffle to fit as many as necessary. Ally Crysin, I want you to continue learning to balance while accelerating. Until you feel that you can accelate at high speeds without losing balance, I want you to join in with Alyss and Larissa in attempting to score goals." Kalif took a small pause. "Begin."

Now for the beaters. "Theodore Snow, the first thing I want you to do is neither get your hair cut or get something to hold your hair back. I am surprised you didn't crash with that hair blocking your eyes. Aleyha Devearux, Adira Ater, and Theodore, get a beater's bat and take flight. I will release the bludgers, and you will show me what skills you have. Do not hit anyone with the bludgers. Save that for the games. We don't need to injure our own players." Kalif waved his hand over the locks of the bludgers and he released them. The bludgers took flight, and he would stand back and observe all the players. Mentally in his mind, he already knew the positions of those who tried out, and who would be leading the team. Just to completely earn those positions was up to them. Kalif wanted however to see if they could hold their position.
 
Milena didn't somehow heard her name being called, she was confused what to do. Next to her was her broomstick, she was holding it tightly. "Is this the right decision"she thought looking at the different students flying up in the air. Nerve wracking to her, she didn't wanted to disturb the other players playing. Waiting for her turn she stood still along the corner trying to figure out on what to do.
 
The instructions were clear, and Azerail heard what was needed to be done. Glancing over at the other girl trying out for keeper, name was not familiar to him, but she was young and looked completely helpless. Azerail approached her with a smile on his face, "I think that means us. We are the only ones trying out for Keeper. You should take the South hoops while I take the north. Good luck, and be confident. I think that is what Professor Styx is looking for." The girl he was speaking to was Milena. Azerail heard the word 'Begin' as he ascended into the air on his broom. He flew toward the North hoops, with a smirk in his silvery eyes. He was ready to be the keeper, and wasn't about to let a single quaffle into the hoops that he was currently guarding. Azerail balanced without holding onto the broom, and he waited for one of the hopeful chasers to attempt to score a goal.
 
Theodore playfully rolled his emerald green eyes when Professor Styx commented about his hair before he let loose a minuscule grin, he knew his hair needed a trim but he found it a little bit humorous that Professor Styx was about to poke at him about it. He nodded his head carefully though showing that her understood what the man was saying and did something with his hair to make sure it wouldn't get in his face when he went up into the air, by the time he had finished doing that Professor Styx was giving directions out on what all the people trying out for certain positions should be doing. He and the other two trying out for Beater heard what they were supposed to do and he wasted no time in tightening his gloves quickly, now it was time to show His Head of House what he was still very capable of still keeping the Beater Position.

Once again Theodore quickly mounted his broom with his beater's bat in one hand while the other gripped the broom handle tightly. Kicking off the ground roughly he sped up into the air, more confident that he would be able to do well now that he had some flying time in to remind him how much he had loved flying. Once he was high enough into the air he gripped his bat tightly with his hands and waited for Professor Styx to release the Bludgers. Once they were released Theodore immediately focused his attention on one of the Bludgers that he was going to keep an eye on throughout the tryouts. The Bludger eventually rose high into the air and Theodore leaned forward on his broom to speed off after it and smacked it with a large clack sound rising filling the Quidditch Pitch, it went a pretty far distance but he knew he could probably do better after a few hits. Theodore spend around the field some more, making sure to show of his flying skills at the same time, he even managed to hit away a few Bludgers that flew past him as he flew around, he found this to be an important skill that he was able to knock away Bludgers even while flying around because that was something most Beaters ended up doing during the actual Quidditch games anyways.

When his emerald green eyes caught the sight of another Bludger coming in his general direction Theodore prepared himself and sped right at the beastly ball. Once he was close he swung his arm back for a moment before he pulled it forward and hit the Bludger far away from where it was and smirked, he was proud that he was still able to hit these Bludgers without throwing out his arm completely. Balancing himself on the boom he released both hands from the broom and looked around the Pitch, he could easily see all the others doing whatever it was that they did and he smirked to himself for a moment, he had one last skill he wanted to test out before he was about swamped with things he should show Professor Styx. He waited for the Bludgers to get closer to him before he made sure both of his hands had a steady grip on the bat he was holding, this skill took a lot of balance and strength and he wasn’t absolutely amazing at it but he could try getting it down.

When the Bludgers was within his striking range, he swung back arms back as if he were playing baseball and then swung forward to hit the Bludgers using both his arms. This time the Bludger went further than it had any of the other times he had hit it, he let out a breath and lowered his arms. They were a little sore now but he assumed that’s just because of the lack of Quidditch he had last year, he wasn’t used to being so brutal on his body. By this time he figured that Professor Styx had seen enough of him and landed on the ground softly, he dismounted his broom and remained silent, his eyes carefully watched the others as they did their tryouts, the whole time he was wishing a few of them good luck.
 
Ally thinks she didn't get good at the laps and will not get the position she wanted but its just the beginning of the try outs and she will do better than she did at the laps. After everyone is down in the ground, Professor Styx said the result of the flying test. Everyone did good except for her, Professor Styx told her to fly more and balance herself from the broom if she thinks she's good enough, Ally can join the two other trying out chasers. Ally nodded understanding what the Professor wanted for her to do, Ally grab her broom again and mounted it, hands tightly at the broom handle as she pushed off into the air.

Ally put more acceleration as she did so and keep unbalancing whenever she do so, she tried to fly slower as she round up around the pitch. Ally tried a high speed again and little by little she can balance herself from the broom, she just have to do it slowly and patiently. She did another lap and this time on a higher speed going back and forth, Ally's balance was nicer than before she ever start taking that lap, Ally went back where Professor Styx is "I think I got it, Professor." She told the Professor and took a deep relief breath, at last, she got to balance without injuring herself.

And she knew after that she can go into the field and try out now, "After that I can go with Larissa and Alyss, right? ... I'll go now." Excited, she almost hug the Professor but resist it. Ally unmount on her broom and took a quaffle on the box where the Quidditch equipments where, she tucked it under her arm and mount her broom again and was up in the air in no time, balancing in one hand is pretty complicated but she did it right.

Now, all she had to do is score in the South SA goal post and she's done, Ally began to speed up going to the South post, the quaffle is luckily still in her arms as she forward more to higher her speed but she slowed as she saw the goal post and attempted the center hoops, Ally on the other hand doesn't think the quaffle will even go at the hoops. As she threw the quaffle, crossing her fingers for it to get on the other side and what you do know, it got on the other side.

Ally then swooped down to get the falling quaffle on the other side and catch it on time before it went into the ground, after getting the quaffle, she did another round in the pitch and going at the same hoops where she scored a goal. Looking at the others they seems to be good as well, very good than her actually. Well, what do you expect to a first time player of Quidditch. She let the other score a goal first before doing it again, she was actually getting better on shooting in goals at first she wasn't and was always practicing it all this summer but now, its a miracle that she can shoot with one hand. After the two had done their scoring, Ally did her second attempt and it didn't fail her.

Hope her parents can see her right now but its not her fault they are busy with their work, in an early age she knew already that they are death eaters and some day she will too be one of them. Ally shook her head slightly not thinking her future career right now that she getting into the try outs, she had to pass this or her Aunt's dream to her will be ruined. She tried scoring in the South SA, getting her speed in the middle, Ally made a closer attempt in the hoops and shooting it at the same time.

But thinking she might crash at the hoops, she had to think for her to make a left turn, she wasn't quite strong for her to turn her broom like that even the speed was in the middle but she tried it anyways. Almost nearing the hoops, Ally tightly grip the broom by her left hand and made a left turn and at the same time scoring at the center hoops, she smiled as she did so and claimed the falling quaffle again. Ally did the scoring over and over until her balance and speed kept in pace.
