Y37 Gryffindor Practice S1

2a
Spotting an opening, Sully flew in along side Noel, brushing shoulders as he wrested the quaffle from his hands. "Too slow," He called, swerving back around and towards Nikko, quaffle in hand.
 
Sierra was glad that, even after two bludger hits, she was able to catch the snitch. She went to give Flynn a thumbs up, before wincing at her sore arm. The adrenaline was still pumping through though, so she was definitely going to be able to push through to the end of practice - unless someone hit her again.
 
Lysander chuckled quietly as Team Gold stole the quaffle again. Scarlet was figuratively and literally dropping the ball this practice.
 
Wasting no time, Sully shot over to the hoops, flinging the quaffle towards the far right one. His speed didn't improve his aim unfortunately, and Nikko was able to knock it off course fairly easily. Undeterred, Sully drifted back to wait for the quaffle to be thrown back in.
 
Lysander approached another bludger and swung his bat, keeping an eye out for Emma in the process to try and pass it over to her. It took too long to spot her in the sky, and his shot missed entirely.
 
Considering how bad things were at the start, it was starting to pick up. Flynn continued to fly around, deciding to search around the hoops for any sign of the snitch.
 
Sully almost felt bad for how much Team Gold was attacking Nikko, but not enough to actually ease off. Grinning, he swooped in to nab the quaffle before Knox or Noel could, making a loop of the pitch quickly to line up another shot on the hoops.
 
When Sully got his hands on the quaffle again before Noel or Knox could Chloë shook her head with a small chuckle. It made her wonder how often their team gold had managed to snatch the quaffle away. Not for too long though as she focussed her thoughts back on the game to follow Sully along the pitch.
 
Sierra continued to fly around, looking for the snitch.
 
Heading towards Nikko, Sully lobbed the quaffle over to Chloë close to the last minute, hoping they could confuse Nikko and manage another goal. @Chloe Thompson
 
Chloë was caught slightly off guard when Sully passed to her, still hoping they could pull of some confusion she aimed it for the hoops as quickly as she could. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to work and her shot got blocked. She gave Sully a shrug as she turned around. “Next one, right?” She said with a little chuckle. They’d managed to get some shots in and they played together really well so she still figured things would go smoothly during their official games. Especially since there’d be three of them then and in her own opinion they made a good little team.
 
Lysander also flew around looking for a bludger, but failed to strike any.
 
Sierra paused for a moment to see how the other players were going, trying to think of drills and activities the team could do to build up their confidence and abilities.
 
Still no sign of the snitch again, but he wasn't going to give up and simply continued to fly around in search of it
 
Lysander saw Sierra pause and stopped himself, wondering if he'd missed something. It didn't seem like it, so he eventually shrugged and continued on.
 
Noel was so angry with himself. He was way too distracted and Sully stole the quaffle away. He could not go along with the jokes now, he was too irritated with himself. When he flew along with the other chasers and noticed Chloe missing. When the quaffle got tossed back he took posession of it and flew along with it in the other direction of the pitch. He needed to score. He kept an eye out for Knox to see if the boy would back him up.
 
Chloë was glad to see team scarlet grab the quaffle, following suit as Noel made off with it.
 
Lysander struck a bludger in the hopes of shaking the quaffle out of Noels grip, but it flew harmlessly by.
 
Team Scarlet was able to get their hands on the quaffle again and Sully followed after Noel and Chloë, eyes keen for a chance to steal again, just for fun. He saw an opening to tackle, but hung back a bit still, curious if Noel could make his shot on goal.
 
Still no sign of the snitch again, it seemed as though it has taken to hiding again. Or maybe he just wasn't as good as he thought he was, but that was not something he was actually going to admit.
 
Lysander slowed down tailing the Scarlet chasers and kept an eye out for Sierra to see how she was doing.
 
Noel made his way to the hoops and looked out for some bludgers and than focused on the hoops again. He threw the quaffle hard to the left hoop but Christian managed to get it. Noel made an fist movement, angry at himself. It was not going well for him, but he sighted and looked at Chloe and Sully. '' Sorry guys. I know it's competition right now. But you are doing great.'' He than said as he flew closer to his friends. Christian was an good keeper, so he tried to see the positive things from that as well.​
 
Sully couldn't help a muffled laugh at Noel's frustration. He'd been there, and he was kinda glad his team was winning right now, even if Noel was his buddy. "Just watch and learn, man," Sully said lightly, scooping up the quaffle when Christian threw it back in.
 
Sully decided to waste no time crossing the pitch, trying to make up for the loss in accuracy by putting on a burst of speed. Unfortunately, it didn't pan out, and he was pretty sure his shot would have missed even if Nikko hadn't gotten to it. Shrugging his shoulders, Sully pulled back, waiting for the quaffle to be thrown back into play.
 
Things seemed to be slowing down again, but Sierra was glad that they had such amazing keepers.
