Field Day Finale | Tug of War PV Finished

Mentioning @Willow Anderson

This was not going well for the students at all... Despite Henry's rather cocky taunts directed towards the professor's team, he soon became one of two students to fall off the rope completely as the troupe of (admittedly, very weak) students were dragged closer and closer to their demise. He had certainly dug them all a bit of a hole here - one which he wasn't helping to get them out of. Some kids in the younger group seemed to have already given up, doing very little in the way of even attempting to pull their own weight, seemingly zoning out altogether. Tina gritted her teeth. She was determined to not become one of those people, though her resolve was wavering, and she wasn't doing much in the way of helping with what little muscle she had.

She tried to block out the noise of the two older boys behind her, not wanting to entertain them any longer (they were mostly ignoring her anyway). Willow, who seemed to have taken pity on the lot of them having watched their pathetic attempts become even more pathetic, came over, shouting her encouragements. They didn't fall deaf on Tina's ears, and she wrapped her hands around the rope more firmly. They were having bad luck; that was all.

Well this was not looking good at all, not one bit. One of the boys behind her continued to shout insults at the professors, even after he fell flat on his bum, providing absolutely no help that round. What in the world was he doing? "Ey! Get off your butt, take a break from the taunts, and help us, will ya? I wanna win this thing!" Starlee said, looking back at him. How in the world was a firstie like her pulling better than most of the boys around her? Maybe it was the determination and ambition she had. I mean, she certainly wasn't going to give up yet. There was still plenty of time to turn the tides.

She noticed that another girl had fallen as well and Starlee couldn't help but release an exasperated sigh. 'What is going on here!? We need to get it together!' she thought. It was then Starlee saw a glimmer of hope. Willow was coming back over to join them! "Yes! Willow!!!" Starlee yelled at the girl, her excitement and competitiveness flashing in her eyes. This might be exactly what they needed.

Starlee also heard a voice from behind her, from the other Slytherin boy that hadn't fallen, cheering someone on. "Ye go girl!" Wait a second, did he mean her? He was looking directly at her, so he must have meant it! Plus, to be honest, no other girl was pulling as hard as she was, she thought logically. She looked back and gave him a smile, hoping that she wouldn't let him, or the rest of the students on the team, down in the next round. She tried to tighten her grip even more, readying herself to try and turn this game around.

After that embarrassing fall, Nell needed to step up her game. In that case, the whole entire student team did. But, there was a very small chance that the students would win. Nell kept pulling with all her might, soon realizing that her weak pulling really wasn't doing that much. She sighed with defeat, and felt a glimmer of hope when she saw Willow come back from the professor team. A bright smile spread across the second year's face. She didn't show it it physically, but mentally? Nell was jumping for joy in her head! She felt a pump of sudden adrenaline and pulled as hard as ever on the old, tattered rope. She had to help the student team win. Not because she needed to prove herself or all of that, she just wanted the team as well as herself to have that satisfaction of success. She took a big step back and grinned. She hadn't fallen this time - finally. he adjusted her grip and took another step back. This was going quite well for the girl, and Nell hoped she wouldn't jinx it. Nell put her hands on farther up on the rope and pulled back again, paired with another large step. Maybe the students would win.

"Amis, Ami. It means friends!"

Their arms started to get aching from tugging the rope. So far for the students side were not what the green eyes hoped. Maybe they underestimated how strong the professors are.

Good thing Cash is not so cocky like Henry. When Henry fell into the grassy ground, Cash looked at him with disbelieve while still make a strong stance to keep their balance.

"Ey! Get off your butt, take a break from the taunts, and help us, will ya? I wanna win this thing!"One of the first year shouted at Henry. Cash can not hold back their laughter. "That is the spirit, lass"They shout back. Their Cuban accent seeped out.

"Get up!"Cash demanded Henry. "Did your arms asleep there, mate?"Cash taunted Henry. "I thought you are strong like how you taunting the professors"They playfully mocked their housemates. Cash heard the discussion between Caelan and Henry to jinxed one of the professors.

"Whomever you will aimed at, counted me out"They told both Caelan and Henry. When Willow switched team, there is a glimmered of hope that maybe just maybe the students side could win this round.

For someone with small body, Willow has a loud voice. When Willow demanded everyone to pull, her shouted ringing in their ears because now Willow is the anchor for the students side of the rope.

"You heard the boss lady,"They chimed in. "Pull with all your strength and for Merlin's sake dig your heels to the ground, make your stance stronger. No more falling off! We need to win this round. On 3. 1.. 2.. 3.. PULL!"They shouted.

Open to interactions!

The team of professors and prefects continued to hold the upper hand. Not that it was too surprising, as there were adults against children. Though, as the student team seemed to need some more support, Willow switched over to help them out. River looked at her impressively as she swapped. There was no doubt she’d rather give up a win than leave the game unfair to begin with.
She listened as the professors kept on conversing further up the line, perhaps if they continued that way, the students would be able to catch up? There were definitely some of the people on her team that seemed way more busy talking than actually giving any force into pulling the rope at all.
River took a tiny step back as she hauled the rope one more time. Almost slipping slightly on the ground beneath her as she dug her heel into the dirt beneath her feet, hoping to withstand any tugs in the opposite direction. Her fingers sorely changed her grip on the rope to a tighter one, and she kept her arms strong even though they were tiring out from this suddenly excessive pulling. All she wanted was to get through this thing without falling to the ground.

For moderation

SEPTEMBER 5TH
@Aurelia Roberts @Piérre Marchonné

Another tug was tugged as Scarlett and her measly muscles yanked the rope. She felt stronger though, as if the experience of tugging had actually strengthened her arms rather than weakened them. With all her extra effort and hopeful motivation however, the teachers were still winning. It looked like their adult biceps combined could beat the student's flimsy guns.

"Yeah, I'm great," nodded Scarlett as Auri addressed her. Sarcasm crept into her voice, but only a little. "How - how about you?"

She took short, quick breaths as she continued to pull, now feeling the over-powering force of the professors and a few prefects.

"Lettie," panted Scarlett, turning to Pierre. "I feel like the no-nicknames rule has gone out of the window now."

Pierre still had enough breath to shout a loud word of encouragement, like many others. Scarlett would do this normally, but anymore talking and she would die of lack of oxygen. Scarlett glimpsed the sight of a girl who looked her age - second-year. Perhaps her most prominent feature would be her bubblegum-pink hair. Anyway, the girl quickly switched over to the student side, shouting more encouragement, more motivation. Gosh. If this girl was turning to the students' side, things must be dire.

Scarlett simply pulled the rope harder.
