Quidditch Hufflepuff v Slytherin Jan 2022 Done

Quinn didn't expect the round to go like it did but on the brightside they were up still. They'd need to keep it that way, he hoped at least. He was excited but slowly growing disheartened at the prospect of everything. However, Quinn didn't listen to his voice and listened to himself instead. He let out a quick little self-motivating "Yeah!" before zooming off again.

As it would stand, the chasers and keepers of teams Hufflepuff and Slytherin were once again preoccupied – Maggie and Tyr sought to rid Hufflepuff of its fighting change in the form of their illegal tendencies, others such as Howard taking a lap for his crimes against Slytherin. Both keepers, on the contrary, had abandoned offensive matters altogether, rather taking the defense as their teams’ designated lifeguards. Ah, the role of the chaser and keeper was fulfilling – unfortunately, this wasn’t the case for the poor Quaffle. Why didn’t anyone care about it? The Quaffle wanted attention too!

However, that wouldn’t translate to the Quaffle’s total neglect – on the contrary, one brave soul had taken note of the red leather ball’s absence, perhaps in tandem with her own, and promptly risen to the challenge. Serena Bowen, a chaser in her own right, was more than prepared to make up for her tardiness, picking up speed and swiping the Quaffle from right off the evergreen grass. With no one to stop her, she soared past the Slytherin goals, sinking the ball once – twice! The Hufflepuff crowd roared in excitement as the score was promptly adjusted for the first time in the last several minutes, perhaps nearing an hour. What a play for Hufflepuff!

On the other side of the court, things were getting messy really quickly. In other words, Slytherin was looking for a repeat of the last round of gameplay – Tyr’s and Maggie’s polished Quidditch boots had Stanley’s name on them. However, as Maggie approached the young seeker wither foot masterfully extended, Stanley would quickly be reminded of the steely determination of team Hufflepuff, specifically in the form of his Captain, Quinn Healy. The giant had *ahem* taken a few blatches in his day, and was more than prepared to face up against the Slytherin chaser – perhaps matching the masterful maneuvering of his opponent, the Captain swooped in front of his charge, confusing the blatcher and ultimately causing her failure. The whistle was blown, and poor Maggie was sentenced to a lap for her crimes – only causing the Badger crowd to roar louder, their vigor increasing with each moment of gameplay.

It was unfortunate, then, that Tyr had caught on to the Captain’s games, perhaps having watched Maggie and learned from her teammate’s failure. Setting her sights on the seeker in question, she would dive down with the practiced finesse only demonstrated by that of a Captain, her foot jutting out at lightning speed – only to brush upon a different target? The badgers’ cheers would dampen in the slightest, a collective gasp filling the pitch as the giant fell from his broom, the air whistling about him as… he landed on the broom of Keeper Atlas Reid! A masterful save, but a crippling one – the dejected Slytherin crowd began to come back to life as many pieced together the meaning of such a maneuver. The snakes were backing the badgers into a corner, a wise strategy. But would it succeed? Perhaps this would cross the Slytherin co-captain’s mind as the announcer condemned her to a lap around the pitch, her sentence for the crime she had committed against Hufflepuff.

Meanwhile, many eyes were on the new additions to the pitch – respectively, second-stringers Stanley Buttons of Hufflepuff and Flash Holmwood of Slytherin. Both players had suited up and entered the court, a flurry of cheers echoing throughout the pitch as their respective audiences received them with excitement. It was back to square one for both teams – a brand new chance to pull ahead of the other! The crowd was alight with anticipation as many eyes followed the progressions of the two seekers, both boys seemingly focused on their trade and ready for action.

Stanley would, unfortunately, find no such luck – in his search for the glittering golden visage, he would come up empty, the skies bereft of any balls save for the free-flying bludgers and the glittering of the Quaffle in teammate Serena’s hands. The game was, of course, young for him – there was plenty of time for the young man to find what he was so avidly seeking for. Flash, on the other hand, needed no such time – the Slytherin crowd soon erupted in excited mumbles and cheers as the second-stringer promptly picked up speed, air whistling about him and his brown eyes focused on that mysterious object in the distance. Slytherin, in their new opportunity, was off to a great start – the question was, could they keep their lead?

His original plan of trying to find the snitch had not gone well. There was no sight of it anywhere! Maybe Stanley should have gone and got his eyes tested for glasses. There was a high possibility that was why he had never caught sight of the snitch early on in games. Or maybe he was looking right at the golden ball and the information was going straight over his head. "You can do this. Just concentrate." He whispered to himself trying to pick up his confidence. Stanley could not afford letting the team done again.

Serena noticed that the Quaffle was currently being ignored by practically everyone else on the pitch. Seeing an opportunity to make up for her earlier lack of focus, the third year quickly snatched it before anyone else could. Flying over to the Slytherin goals with absolutely no opposition, Serena was able to make it in not once but twice! Now, her team was in the lead! She smiled as she heard the cheers coming from the stands. Although she wished that she would have been paying attention earlier in the game, hopefully, this would make her team not be too mad at her.

There nothing much going on while the green eyes taking a lap as the result of earlier cheat move that Cash did to Hufflepuff's Seeker. The snow-covered pitch fell silent almost like a graveyard from the lack of its action. Until a ding rang out throughout the entire pitch. The ding rang out not just once but twice.

Cash leaned their body forward to make their broom fly faster so Cash could go back into action again. While they fly around the pitch to completed their punishment, it seems Palmer met the same fate as Emrys. The Irish barefooted lad Captain of Slytherin was knocked out from his broom. Since both of the team Seekers were out of the game, now both of the team back to square one.

Holmwood replacing Palmer and Buttons filled Emrys's shoes. Then the name of their Co-Captain and Hawkins being called by the referee for doing cheat moves like the Beater did earlier. Once Cash has done doing the lap, they parked themselves somewhere up in the air.
Their green eyes scanned the pitch.

Hufflepuff already down 3 players and the Badger defender now solely fall down on Healy. The Part-Giant is a wall but a wall will crumble and fall down eventually if it getting hit repeatedly and Cash want to see that happen.

All in all, things were going all right. Slytherin still had most of their team in the air - save for Dan, Koko thought with an internal grumble - and Koko scanned the sky for any sign of falling teammates, but thankfully, there was none.

Usually, Koko would be annoyed at having to hover when she could be doing something else - maybe blatching (since, for once, she didn't think she would mind it) or grabbing the neglected Quaffle - but instead she felt useful. There hadn't been anyone around to save Dan, so at least she would be here now in case anyone else fell. Koko hoped she would be fast enough.

As she kept her steady gaze on the pitch, though, she noticed that no Slytherins were falling. Quinn, however, had been knocked off of his broom. Koko didn't feel that bad - he had been caught, after all. There was no terrible thump on the ground for him... Yet.

Koko bit back a chuckle at that thought and returned to being ready for any falling teammates - of which there were still none. Perhaps their luck had turned for the better.
