It took two hands to do the job, one to hold the bat and the other for some freedom. His body twisted to his left like a coil as he felt his chest pounding at what he was about to do. Without a moment to spare, Reid's body sprung back to swing the bat against the incoming bludger during his flyby. He felt it collide as he passed, seeing it being sent towards Alan with a grimace on his features. A pang of guilt colored his features as he fondly remembered sharing an orange with the Gryffindor in the hospital wing. 

Nonetheless, it was just a pickup game and he hoped he could win his forgiveness in some way afterwards. Yet he was elated to see that the quaffle managed to land in Phaedra's hands and Paracelus managed to counter the bludger. He couldn't help but cheer "Brilliant work!" at the two of them; this was beyond exhilarating. Their team had the quaffle and now it was a matter of keeping an eye on the person who actually had it, she would be public enemy number one. But still, he couldn't help but be proud of their whole group and forget about all the things that tested his temper. It was safe to say, he was actually having fun. The wind howled in his ears as he dipped down to gain some more speed on his way towards the gathering. 

It was hellishly tiring to try and chase after the bludger, he realized he would never be able to stay still. As he got closer to Phaedra and the rest, the Hufflepuff drew his bat at the sight of the incoming bludger. It made the weirdest noise and he didn't understand why, but it gave him enough reason to look out for it. Reid didn't have time to figure who to choose to send it to, time was of the essence. He might as well make the saying 'what goes around, comes around' a literal truth; the Hufflepuff let a swing fly towards the iron beast in the direction of the owner that dipped.

The bludger had successfully hit Paracelsus, however, it clearly didn’t hit as hard as she expected and the boy barely flinched. She reminded herself to put more strength when she gets her hands on the ball later on. The girl tilted her chin, looking up as the chasers attempted to toss the quaffle to another. As the ball was in mid flight, a ravenblack haired girl zoomed across, snatching the quaffle. It was a team 2 chaser.
Oh, no you don’t,” Aurelia growled. She steered the broom in the girl’s direction, but as she’s did, she saw a bludger flying towards her. Instinctively, she tilted to the side attempting to dodge the ruthless ball.

Godverdomme!” The girl yelped as pain reverberated in her spine. The bludger had hit her hard in the back and she swore she’s heard it snap. For that one moment, Aurelia regretted having organised the game. She’s winced as her arm reached across to rub her back, hoping to ease the throbbing pain. The brunette glanced around, trying to catch the culprit that had just threw the bludger. It was obvious that the boy she’s aimed her bludger at had sought for revenge.
Should we get her?
a voice called. She looked down, it was Ami, she hadn’t her finger pointed at Phaedra. The girl was making her way to the hoops. Aurelia wondered how she managed to cover such a distance in few seconds. Ami swung her bat and a bludger soared through the air, directing towards the victim. But just then, someone flew between the bludger and the girl.

Her brown hair flew behind her as she moved toward some the nearest bludger. THWACK! The bludger flew towards the boy who was infront of Phaedra.

Andy's dart to the hoops hadn't done her much good. It took her longer than she would have liked to admit before she realized the quaffle had never even entered her possession. She was still steaming over this when a teammate (Phaedra, or something similar sounding ) managed to catch it herself.

'Well' Andy had thought self-deprecatingly, 'At least we are not all failures.'

"HEY!" she called out. "PHAEDRA!"

She hoped that was the girl's name.

"I'M OPEN!"

True to her word, Andy continued to hover as close to the Ravenclaw girl as she could manage without it being a strategical disadvantage.

At least, until she saw the bludger coming.

"Eek!"

Without waiting to see if the bludger was even directed at her, Andy dived right, hoping against hope that she was still close enough to catch the quaffle if the bludger was headed for Phaedra instead. She hadn't even considered the girl was probably the real target.

'She'll be fine'. Andy told herself as a blush of shame rolled onto her cheeks. 'It's every man and woman for themselves out here'

Pulling sideways on his broom Parcel tried to avoid the incoming bludger. Looking at the cold gray incoming ball it was hard to not lose yourself in the fear of being hit. “Tch, shut it Parcel, you have already decided on what to do!” Making a clicking noise with his tongue Parcel prepared himself. It didn’t take much time for him to realize that he wouldn’t be able to dodge in time, not completely at least. He stretched himself as much as he could to the side without hampering the bat he held ready to strike if he got the chance.

Parcel squinted as the bludger hit him in the chest, right where the shoulder connects to his torso. Twisting himself to the side as the bludger hit made the bludger change direction slightly and bounce off him without doing much damage. Feeling like he survived the danger made him relax a bit before gritting his teeth together. It was not like the hit really hurt that much, but he still felt it, it was definitely going to leave a bruise later.

Not giving himself any more time to idle about Parcel turned his attention back on the bludger that had hit him. “If she is so inclined to shoot me then I will certainly give as good as I get!” While reconfirming his own plan of action Parcel hits the bludger with a mighty TWACK!
Seeing the bludger fly towards Aurelia in a mighty speed almost gave him second thoughts about if he should have targeted her. She even had her back turned towards him “wasn’t that maybe a bit… cowardly of me? Tch! No! its her fault for turning her back to me!” The bludger was already sent and now was not a time to regret his decision, if it turned bad he would just have to apologize later. Hearing the heavy sound of iron hitting flesh made him almost wince, yeah, he would definitively have to apologize later…

At the same time, it made him feel… well, it almost made him feel powerful. Wasn’t it kind of a good feeling to? To actually be quite good at something, it might of course just be beginners luck, but he had gone head to head with both beaters of team 1 and gotten out on top. “That had to count for something, right?” It might just be that both of them were girls tho. Parcel wasn’t sure, but maybe girls just wasn’t as good beaters as boys. There was another boy that was the other beater on his team, and it seemed to go well for him to, so maybe there was something true to it?

While straightening his scarf which had almost fallen down under his nose he started to scan the field. What would his next move be? He wasn’t really sure of what would be a smart move. What would a professional quidditchplayer do? While thinking about what to do he noticed a girl from the other team shoot of in a neckbreaking speed. “But that’s… that’s their seeker isn’t it?... DANG! She found the snitch!?” Coming to his own conclusion he franticly started looking for his own team’s seeker. “Where is that fool!? He needs to move to! If you haven’t seen it, then follow that other bloody seeker until you find it!” Screaming in his own mind as if he hoped he was telepathic Parcel leaned over on his broom and shoot into the crowd of players buzzling about like a crazy hive of wasps.

Parcel could hear someone shouting words of praise but hadn’t time to respond “Brilliant work? We don’t have time for that now! The other seeker is flying about as if her broom is on fire, she has obviously found something!”
Looking for their own seeker he hurriedly shouted out.

“HEY! SEEKER BOY, FIND THAT BLOODY SNITCH! I’LL TRY TO COVER YOU AS BEST I CAN!”

Hoping that his seeker would come to his side Parcel continued through the crowd of players and tried to keep on the team 1 seekers tail. All the while keeping his bat close to his body, ready to try and beat back any bludgers that might come to hit him or the boy he was covering.

Phaedra had missed the interception, the Quaffle brushing past her fingers by mere inches and landing into the awaiting arms of Alan. However, just as quickly as the Gryffindor had gained possession he had lost it, the force of a stray Bludger from her Hufflepuff teammate knocking him backwards and causing him to drop the Quaffle. It looked like it hurt like hell but Phaedra didn't pause for a moment, leaning forward on her broom to up her speed and catch the ball securely in her right hand.

Now in possession yet again, Phaedra was determined to hold out for as long as possible and make her way to the goals, the encouraging words of one of her Beaters ("Brilliant work!") reaching her ears and bringing out a smile. Still, she didn't let it get to her head nor distract her, and flying over midfield she hugged the Quaffle closer to her side, eyes focused on the approaching hoops. She had learned her lesson from last time; turning your head to look backwards was an invitation for misfortune. 

Phaedra heard the whistles of not one, but both Bludgers speeding from two directions, and quickly eying to both sides she realized they were aimed for her - why wouldn't they be? Phaedra saw Reid Kovacs position himself between her and Ami's Bludger in an attempt to counter the iron ball, which eased her fear of getting hit by at least one of them. Before she could see if his counterstrike worked, she heard the cries of her fellow Chaser to her right, Andy Graham, who was open and asking for a skip.

Phaedra started to reel her arm back to pass it to the Slytherin girl but the second incoming Bludger caused Andy to dive in precaution to the right and Phaedra tucked the Quaffle back into her side and mirrored the girl's action to the left. Things were getting intense and the Ravenclaw was afraid of her pass not reaching like the previous time - especially now that they moved farther away from each other to dodge - so she fell on the difficult decision of keeping the ball to herself for now. She was certain the girl was capable, but better safe than sorry. Phaedra didn't know where the other team's Chasers were, but when the time called for it she would prioritize another pass to Andy.
Primary action: Grip Quaffle tightly.

Winifrey's cheeks turned red in embarrassment as one of the boys from her team sped in front of her to counterstrike the bludger. She was grateful that it had not hit her and knew that she would not be making that mistake again. The small brunette was also grateful to the beater, although she did not care to learn or remember his name as her eyes caught the bludger racing towards Aurelia.

Her friend may have not been on her team, but she was still worried for her safety. Winifrey gasped in shock as it slammed into her back, cringing slightly at how much that probably hurt.

Her eyes were then drawn to another one of her team mates, a chaser who currently had the quaffle and was racing towards the other team's goal posts. Winirey smiled, hoping that they would land some points before someone got killed.

Seeing that she could not do anything at the moment, Winifrey stayed near the goal posts, her eyes tracing her team mates' movements. She quickly caught sight of their seekers finding the snitch, making her even more anxious. She gripped her broom a little tighter as she stayed near the goal posts.

ERI speeds up, her broom shaking dangerously as she struggles to control the broom, right as she came up to the snitch, it veered up, and she lost her grip, falling off. AMI hits the bludger at PHAEDRA. It is about to hit when REID counters back at her, countering AURELIA’s hit back at her at the same time, while PHAEDRA wobbles dangerously before regaining control.
ANDY waits for a pass that never came. PARACELSUS waits for bludgers that don’t go his direction. And WINIFREY remains steadfast in her sitting there by the goalposts.

EFFECTS:
Eri -420 (-80) [carried from field, remember to do a parting rp. If everyone agrees the game can be on hold until you recover.]
Ami-120 (20)
Phaedra-possession of quaffle, no movement.
Announcer -370 (30) [carried from field]



“AMI HITS THE BLUDGER AT PHAEDRA! OH, SWEET MERLIN THAT’S GOT POWER BEHIND IT! GEEZ NO!!”
The strike did indeed have power behind it, a lot of power. And the girl’s aim was spot-on. She most likely would have dislodged the girl from her broom had it not been for Reid, who somehow got himself in the zone. Perfectly in the zone. His eyes were set and determined, and his broom was cooperating. It was as if the universe was ruled by dice, dice that had perfectly aligned in the best possible way.
At the last second, Reid hit the bluder directly back at Ami, hittiner her square in the chest with a sound that promised a bruise large enough to warrant several days in the hospital wing.
“WOAH! THAT WAS AMAZING! HOW DID...”
The boy interrupted himself by glancing to the side and noticing the other girl, Aurelia, aiming a bludger at Reid. It was perfect, there was no possible way for him to counterstrike two at once. Well, there was a possibility, but it was a 1 in a hundred chance, practically impossible.
“NO! REID! SOMEONE BAN BLUDGERS! PLEASE!”
Turning slightly, Reid won out on the one in a hundred chance, causing the young gryffindor announcer to wonder where the hufflepuff bought his rabbit’s feet, and whether or not said store had more in stock.
“HOW THE HECK- WHAT THE- WHAT??? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? IS THIS KID FOR REAL?”
The counter was not perfect, however. It missed it’s intended target, Aurelia, by a considerable margin, nearly hitting the other beater paracelsus instead.
“LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HE DID THAT! HE REALLY DID THAT! THAT WAS AMAZING, THAT WAS INCREDIBLE THAT WAS…. wait, what is that?”
You could almost hear the russian national anthem as Eri Windstone started to fall, almost in slow motion. A miniature Hindenburg of the quiddich pitch. She had been moving at speeds, dangerously fast speeds. It was something you were taught not to do in flying class, or at least expected not to do. Common sense being as sensible as it usually was. She was aiming for a broken neck or worse when Kaegen shoved the young gryffindor underneath the girl to cushion her fall. He honestly didn’t care, but he was the referee. It was probably his fault if someone died, and that was a hassle.
Both the announcer and Eri had to be carried from the field, and to the hospital wing. He was going to have to find a new announcer.

Eri continued to fly fast. She knew it wasn't something that you were supposed to do, but she had to to keep up with the snitch. She still couldn't believe that she could see the snitch still. Her broom started to shake a bit to much for her to control for much longer. Eri tried to keep her broom steady. It was to late for her to slow down. The snitch kept going and she hoped it didn't go any faster. Then suddenly the snitch swerved and she fell off her broom. Plummeting towards the ground at an awful speed.

Eri thought this is how she was going to die. Plummeting off her broom at a deadly height. She should have listened during flying class. This was a mistake she would never do again if she lived. Eri wasn't generally scared of heights, but falling to her death was pretty frightening to a first year or anyone in general. Eri watched as the ground got closer and closer. Maybe she wouldn't die. She didn't want to die. Eri closed her eyes as she saw Kaegen shove the Gryffindor underneath her to help cushion her fall. Eri hit something then the worl went dark.

Frost had zoned out for a while. Just watching things play out. She flew aimlessly trying to help her teammates. 

Phaedra had the quaffle again. People are yelling at Charlie. And she was happy that she didn’t have a beater coming for her.

“Oi! Don’t yell at Charlie! I’m sure he’s doing his best!”  She yells at her teammate. But she did hope Charles would do what he had to do. 

She watches her surroundings closely and zooms around, trying to be as useful as she could.  

At least there’s no bludgers coming after me.

She had to retuck her scarf in again. 

The girl decided to be ready in case anything happened. It seemed like Andy had the same thought. 

“Hey! Phaedra! Andy and I got your back!” She called out, glancing at Andy. 

She flies mainly in the area to the left. 

Frost felt a little weird seeing that Eri, the opposing team’s seeker, fell off of her broom at a deadly speed. Her stomach twisted in a knot as she stared at the girl who Is falling through the air, toward the ground of the pitch.

She landed with Keagan. 

Frost let out a loud breath after witnessing that for the first time. 

She looked to her teammates and saw that some of them were equally shook up by what just happened.

Is the game over since the seeker is gone? Also, sorry for taking so long to reply, I was moving houses.

Ami couldn't help but groan in agony as the bludger hit her square in the chest. Oof, that's gonna leave a bruise... might be a nice excuse to get out of some classes, though. She started to spin, and she knew that she had to land sometime soon to avoid falling off her broom. Really, I shouldn't have kept skipping Flying... Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Eri fall off her broom from about eighty feet up in the air. Okay, that settled it. Landing her broom at a slightly dangerous speed, she dropped the flying contraption and started running towards Eri and the poor Gryffindor announcer. "Eri!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. "Shit, Eri!"

Catching up to the two of them easily, Ami picked up Eri's light frame without much trouble and started off towards the Hospital Wing; damn her own injuries, damn the game, and damn the announcer. To her, right now, the only thing that mattered was that Eri was okay. Stumbling into the castle, Ami began to climb the long flight of stairs that led from the Entrance Hall to the Hospital Wing. It was a bit of a walk, but she didn't mind- not really, anyways.
Action: Run off the field, carrying Eri Windstone to the Hospital Wing.
