Y37 Gryffindor Practice S1

Now he had two catches under his belt he was feeling a bit better about everything, but he was still looking for a third, eagerly flying around to see if he could spot the snitch again.
 
Noel came close to the hoops and saw an chance. His arm hurted a bit of the bludger, but he would try. He frowned as he failed to score. Christian was not the easiest to score with he knew, so he had to try again.
 
Noel was able to make his shot before Chloë or Sully could interfere, but it missed and Sully swooped in to scoop the quaffle back up as it was thrown back in. "Nice try, mate," He called over to Noel, happily shooting back towards Nikko.
 
Chloë watched as Noel attempted to score once they neared the hoops. She felt like it was a solid attempt, especially after just getting hit. Swerving around she stuck close to Sully again after he caught the quaffle and made for the hoops Nikko was guarding.
 
Sully was tempted to pass to Chloë, he knew she was a good shot, but he also really wanted to see if he could score a goal too and even things out. Gripping the quaffle tight, he whooped as it sailed through the left hoop, grinning and flying past Chloë for a high five. "Team Gold, booyah!"
 
Sierra cheered for Flynn, though not as enthusiastically as she would have liked too, what with her body feeling broken and bruised. Ideally, she would like to catch the snitch too, but mostly her brain was focusing on staying upright at this point
 
Pleased with his goal, Sully swanned back away from the hoops, ready for the quaffle to be thrown back in.
 
Nikko was so focused on watching Sully and Chloe that he didn't even see the bludger until it hit him square in the shoulder. He groaned and rubbed the now sore spot on his arm. He tried to not to take the hit personally as he shook it off and tried to get back to guarding the hoops. He was able to block one shot by Chloe but wasn't fast enough to stop Sully's. But he kept his focus as he tossed the quaffle back into play.
 
Nikko threw the quaffle back in and Sully surged forward, hoping he could beat out the Team Scarlet chasers and snag it.
 
Chloë gave a little cheer when Sully managed to score, happily high fiving him as he flew past her before turning around and focussing on the quaffle as it was thrown back in.
 
Lysander dipped down to hit another bludger, but missed the mark.
 
Sierra looked around the pitch, taking deep breaths to try and control the pain, wishing she could find the snitch too.
 
With another whoop, Sully scooped up the quaffle, grinning at Chloë as he swerved back across the pitch. He knew they should probably try to give poor Nikko a break, but no way did he want to give up their streak of awesome.
 
His foot suddenly slipping did cause a small yelp of surprise, his broom suddenly jolting with the sudden weight difference, but Flynn was used to this. He didn't waste any time in sliding his foot back up, trying to simply pretend that nothing had happened as he kept his eyes forward in search for the snitch.
 
Chloë followed suit when Sully grabbed the quaffle, still keeping an eye on the other chasers every now and then as they moved across the pitch.
 
Turn back to heads towards Nikko, Sully lobbed the ball over to Chloë, giving her a grin. "You're up," He called, sticking with her as they approached the hoops. @Chloe Thompson
 
Gripping the bat with both hands, Lysander flew up alongside another bludger and gave it a hit, watching it sail straight into @Knox Ivers. He whistled and slugged his bat over his shoulder to go scour the sky for another.
 
Chloë smiled when Sully passed the quaffle to her, holding it tightly as she moved closer towards the hoops. Once she felt like she was at a good enough angle to make the shot she threw it, grinning widely as she watched it sail right through.
 
Lysander cheered as Chloe made another shot. They were doing great now, and if they kept getting better, their matches would surely be a breeze.
 
As he flew around some more, there was no sign of the snitch, but he hoped that would soon change and he would be able to make a catch again.
 
Lysander glanced at his watch. They were only just over halfway through the practice, and he was much happier now than he'd been earlier on. He continued his bludger pursuit, keeping an eye out for the other players.
 
Chloë was pleased she’d managed to score another time but it definitely wasn’t going to stop her from swooping in and getting her hands on the quaffle when it was thrown back into the game. With it now under her arm she turned around, taking a lap to give Nikko a break for a second.
 
Nikko frowned as he missed blocking another shot. He tried not to let it get to him. “Good shot.” He called out to Chloe before throwing the quaffle back.
 
With the quaffle safely tucked underneath her arm Chloë continued her lap around the pitch, now starting to circle back towards the hoops.
 
It frustrated Emma that Flynn kept catching the snitch. She had thought Sierra would do better, but now realized that without Jacob on the team she probably felt like she didn't have to try as hard. Feeling frustrated, Emma flew after another bludger.
