The third Quidditch Match was now here - this time it was Ravenclaw playing Slytherin. Slytherin had won in their match against Gryffindor, while Ravenclaw had lost to Hufflepuff. Quidditch fans were once again packing the stands, preparing to watch the match. A few days earlier, Jill had owled both the Back-Up Gryffindor Quidditch Referee Katy J. Salmalin and the Hufflepuff Quidditch Referee Hitoshi Kuraimono about being the referee for the match, but neither had responded. Gryffindor Quidditch Referee George Adam Sparewell has said that he could do it again, and with no other options, Jill waited for the Magical Government Professor to show up once again. I wish I had more reliable Quidditch Referees...(OOC: The Golden Snitch has been hidden! Note: The Golden Snitch is not hidden in any board that requires a password (like the Common Rooms or Dorms).) IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE SEEKERS: Due to a slight change in plans, please PM me with the url if you find the snitch instead of Professor Sparewell. Professor Sparewell will still be responsibile for keeping track of the score, settling disputes, etc.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The PlayersRavenclaw Quidditch TeamAngelina Krum, Captain* Angelina Krum, Beater* Kevin Lupin Phoenis, Beater* Sarah Black, Chaser* Eva Fawne, Chaser* Kora Natar, Chaser Mai Gamit, Keeper Drake Taylor, SeekerBack-Up Ravenclaw Quidditch TeamPOSITION OPEN, Assistant Captain POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Beater POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Beater Rei Aecus, Back-Up Chaser Amy Rosalynn Martin, Back-Up Chaser* POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Chaser Dovesary Aemeson, Back-Up Keeper Tom Allen Poe, Back-Up SeekerSlytherin Quidditch TeamBlaze Oceana, Captain Morana Neus, Beater* Magyn Bellus Wandwip, Beater* Geri Black, Chaser* Cari Finnigan, Chaser* Ashley McWaters, Chaser Blaze Oceana, Keeper Amora Preston, Seeker*Back-Up Slytherin Quidditch TeamPOSITION OPEN, Assistant Captain Johnny Star, Back-Up Beater POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Beater Dane Malfoy, Back-Up Chaser POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Chaser POSITION OPEN, Back-Up Chaser Jessica Whitfield, Back-Up Keeper POSITION OPEN, Back-Up SeekerNote: A * next to your name means that you have posted/shown up to the game.

Magyn had awoken early that morning, showered, dressed and went down to the great hall for some breakfast. SHe ate in slience, not talking to the few people that were up that early. After eating she returned to the dungeons, grabbed her broom and headed out to the pitch. As she walked out on the grounds she niticed the conditions wern't too bad, a little cold, but she figured that woudl change as the sun rose, but it wasn't too windy, which was good. She entered the pitch and walked to the locker rooms and started to get changed into her uniform. She pulled off her clothse and took out her uniform form her locker. She pulled on all the required clothing, arm pads, leg gurads and the silver and green shirt, pants and cape. SHe loved wearing this uniform, everytime she put it on she felt like she was more than just herself, she was part of a team, something great, and something that was going to win the quidditch cup among the houses this year. After she was done getting dressed she grabbed her broom once more adn enered the pitch again, this time as a player.She mounted her broom and did a couple laps around the pitch then settled back down on the ground witing for her other team mates to arrive.

Another game, my second game. Lets show these Slytherins what we can do. Eva said as she marched down to the Quidditch Pitch, her broom in hand. Winds flapped around her, making her black robes wave and wave, her blonde hair fly loose of its ties. Eva was fairly new to the school, and barely knew her teamates. It was probably time for her to start attending practices if she hoped to be any use to them. But the girl was a natural on the broom, it was a thing of the air of the wind, and she was a wind elementalist. Something she had trained at for a good deal of her life before coming to Hogwarts, which she considered a school for secondary magic.
Entering the locker room that served for all the quidditch players of the Ravenclaw team, she quickly swapped her black robes for the blue robes they wore when playing a match. They contrasted with her light blonde hair, but they werent exactly given a choice in the matter. With clever hands she put her hair in a ponytail and said a quick prayer for luck before going out onto the pitch to get some practice in. She was a Chaser, which meant she had to have a good arm for throwing, a good eye for catching, and a heck of a lot of a sense of direction. It would do no good to her team to come out and play cold, there was already a slytherin team member out there warming up, and Eva followed suit.
She jumped onto her broom and banished the winds that were around her naturally, magic of that sort was not allowed in Quidditch Games, for what if the winds around the Slytherins suddenly picked up and blew them off course? It felt weird not being connected to that part of her, but Eva just ignored it and pushed off into the air. She did excersizes like quick turns, moving up and down, leaning side to side, all while moving in circles around the pitch. It seemed even without practice she wasnt that rusty. With flying warmups done she landed on the ground and slid off her broom, proceding to warm up her arms with stretches. She wasnt some weak girl, under those blue robes she had muscle, making her good at throwing. Natural grace as a half-angel made it easier for her to fly and catch.
With her warmups done, Eva stood there on the pitch, away from the Slytherin team member, and waited for her own team to arrive. This would be one heck of a game, because even though they had lost their match, they would be ready this time.

Morana stepped into the Slytherin locker room, stomach reeling and body shivering in anticipation of today’s match. She walked over to the green lockers and found her own, which had her last name magically written on it in silver letters, as well as her status on the Quidditch team. Hitting the locker door twice, it popped open, to which Morana plopped her duffel bag into it and took out the robes that lay inside. She began to undress quickly, refitting herself with the under layer of her uniform (including boots) and chalking up her hands, then placing all of her guards in place. Once she was done with that, she put on her robes and grabbed a hair clamp, tying her hair into a (unintentionally) sloppy bun so that it would not blow in her face and impair her vision. Search her magically enhanced bag, she grabbed her beater’s bat and her broom case, flipping the clasps and taking out her broom, the Wanderlust 2007. Smiling at the feeling of her broom, she could feel it vibrate lightly on her fingers, eager to get into action.
After she zipped up her duffel and slammed the locker door shut, Morana walked toward the field entrance, pausing slightly before she opened the door and stepped out into the light. She could hear the chattering and laughter of the mass of spectators swarming to the stands, the high spirits causing her to smile. Walking briskly out onto the field, she shielded her eyes for a moment, and after her eyes adjusted to the bright light, she looked around, taking a deep breath. The day couldn’t be anymore perfect, and the high mood seemed to add to it. Greeting Magyn, who was the first from her team on the field, she stretched quickly and made a few practice swings, before mounting her broom and kicking off, flying a practice lap.
Once Morana was finished, she waited patiently for the rest of the team to arrive, raring to go.

Amy ate her breakfast quickly and silently on the day of the Ravenclaw vs. Slytherin Quidditch match. She jogged out to the Quidditch Pitch to go see which members of the Ravenclaw team were present. Oh my god.....only one person from Ravenclaw here....I hope the other chasers show up soon... She nervously headed toward the locker room with hopes that the other two Ravenclaw chasers were there. When she arrived and no one was there, she decided to wait just a little longer until Sarah and Kora showed up. Hopefully they will show up... Amy thought nervously. She went outside to the entrance to the locker room to wait for her team mates. While she waited she prayed that the other chasers would come. I shouldn't be so nervous...Amy, you are a back-up chaser, you chose to sign up for this position, now stop being so nervous! Due to newly found confidence, Amy decided that she would run laps around the Quidditch Pitch to warm up, just encase.

Another day, another Quidditch match. Sarah had woken up extremely early today, but instead of getting up and heading down to the pitch or getting breakfast, Sarah stayed in her room and stretched out a bit there. She liked to do her stretching where not that many people were watching, she bent herself into some really awkward positions.
After finishing her own routine, Sarah grabbed her broom and her Quidditch bag and headed out towards the pitch. As she walked towards the stadium, Sarah thought about their last match. Losing to Hufflepuff had been bad, but losing to Slytherin would be even worse. There was no way she was going to let them loose today's match. Drake had better be on his game today too.
As she reached the pitch, Sarah let out a breath and tried to calm the butterfly's in her stomach. She could already hear the mummer of the crowd, it was going to be a packed game. Entering the Ravenclaw locker room, Sarah headed straight to her own spot and started to get ready. Once the blue and silver robes where on and all the guards and padding were in place, Sarah reached for her broom and headed out onto the grassy field, looking around for other team members.
Spotting Eva, the new chaser from last game, Sarah headed her way. "Hey there Eva. Did you already do your warm-up laps?" Sarah was fine doing the warm-ups herself, but she liked having someone else in the air too, it gave her something to race against. Hoping that the girl would either come warm-up with her, or would not have done her laps at all, Sarah waited patiently.

To say that Geri was nervous like a bird on his first flight, was an understatement. He had not slepr the whole night. He could eat nothing in the morning and now he needed to find a bathroom.
Geri entered the locker room with his broom on his shoulder. He changed into his uniform and took his broom. Geri went to the pitch and mounted the broom. His face was pale and his eyes focused the crowd that was slowly forming in the stands. He greeted Morana and Magyn and continued the practice.

With so much going on, it surprise him how much he worried about a Quidditch match, except this was the first match as Head Boy and other stuff like that. and like last time, he was nervous.
Their very narrow defeat was probably most upsetting to the team, as he could remember not knowing where the Captain, or thier Seeker, really was. This game had to be different. He was not going to let Ravenclaw lose this time. Not at all.
Quickjly he made it down the Pitch, finally entering the Ravenclaw lockerroom. Seeing at least 3 team members there, he had a rather bad feeling about this. He walked over and gave a Sarah a passionate kiss, before mounting. This was it, this was the game. And they better win this time.

Professor George Adam Sparewell crossed the middle of the field, dressed in the standard referee robes, and carrying the case and his broom. The underdogs, Ravenclaw, who had been beaten last game, hover there, and look ready to show that they were not out of the running. Slytherin, on the other hand, seemed to hav ethe confidence to take down the team, and was ready.
Professor Sparewell unlocked the locks inside and out,a nd then lifed off his broom. He accio the quaffle so when the box was opened, it would zoom to him.
"Hear this, keep all sportmanlike conduct at all time, and we will all be albel to have a fun game. Good luck."
With that, he slashed his wand own, and the box opened, realsin the Snith and the Bludgers, and the Quafle coming to his hand. With a blow of his whistle, he launched the Qaffle up, and it was immediatly intercepted by the determined team, Ravenclaw.

Oh crud! Amy ran as fast as she could to the locker rooms when she saw Proffessor Sparewell come out on to the field. She changed as quickly as possible, ran out of the locker rooms, and mounted her broom. My first game. Let's go Ravenclaw! She soared up into the air just in time to see the quaffle being thrown into the air. She was flying near the center of the pitch and what came flying toward her but the quaffle? OMG! I have keep this in Ravenclaw's possesion! She flew as fast as she could toward Slytherin's goalposts.

"Hello." Morana replied with a polite nod to a guy she did not know, but was apparently on the team.
'Sheesh! Can't we just keep the same team for at least one match? I would like to know my fellow player's names before the end of the school year is over...' she couldn't help but think.
Keeping a watchful eye for the ref, Morana saw a few minutes after a professor in the referee robes, carrying the case that contained the necessary balls for the game. Following him to the center of the field, Morana positioned herself and got ready for take off. After the customary "Keep it clean" speech (to which she internally laughed), she watched as the Snitch and the Bludgers were released, staring at the two heavy brown balls with a fierce intensity as they sluggishly whirled through the air.
Then the ref blew the whistle and Morana shot into the air, taking her eyes off the bludger briefly to see the Quaffle be intercepted by a Ravenclaw Chaser.
Eyes back on the prizes, Morana watched as one of the bludgers conveniently flew toward her, to which she smirked, dodged the bludger with a spin, and used her momentum to smack the ball speedily toward its target.

"AAHHHH!" Amy spun and barely dodged the bludger that had been targeted at her. I almost forgot about those...that was close, too close... She threw the quaffle to one of her fellow Ravenclaw chasers and slowed down to get over the heart attack she nearly had when the bludger was hit. We have to win this match! She sped up and flew after the quaflle she had thrown encase someone needed to make a desparate pass like she had.

'Oh darn.' Morana thought. 'I guess I'm just going to have to try again...' she added with a wicked grin.
The other bludger was terrorizing someone on the Ravenclaw end of the field, and since that was way too far away, she decided to stick with the one she had previously.
'Well, I'm going to have to hurry up if I want to accomplish that...' she mused as she kicked her broom into gear and swiftly made her way to the Sytherin goalposts, edging her broom to go faster all of the while.

Geri took off and tried to grab the quaffle. Unfortunately, a girl from Ravenclaw grabbed it first. He sped towards her in attemp to greab it.
When Morana hit the girl she passed it to another ravenclaw. He went after that person.

Richard walked in to Quidditch Pich and found a seat in the Slytherin section. He was hoping to see his team win, even if he kept looking behind him. Richard was a little jumpy now more than ever.

Ange was on her broom and started trying to find a budger that she could hit towards someone to stop the slytherins getting the Quffle.
One budger flew towards her and with one big hit it flew towards Geri.

It was a good thing that Morana was already heading in the direction of the action, for the bludger she was seeking was hit toward the new guy, whom she was a few yards next to. Tilting her broom in his direction, she flew underneath him and ended up at his other side, smacking the bludger not back at his attacker, but redirecting it at the current Ravenclaw player with the quaffle.
'Well, I might as well be his guard.' she thought, giving him a nod of acknowledgment before turning her attention back to the bludger currently spiraling toward the quaffle-wielding Ravenclaw chaser.

Amy saw a bludger headed right towards the Ravenclaw chaser she had given the ball to. "Look out!!" she yelled as she flew near enough so that the chaser could make a pass. Please don't get hurt...

((I am so sorry I'm late.. Family Problems.))
Amora had walked onto the Quidditch Pitch, her expedent 5000 in her hands. The New Slytherin Seeker was nervous as she could be, for this was her first match from being a back up.
She didn't waste any time getting into the air, her broom wasn't even on the market yet. The rush of wind in her hair, she kept her hood over her head, staying away from the day light. She flew high into the air, letting her eyes roll over through the clouds, she heard the distant screaming of all of the Hogwarts students and she smiled to herself. 'The Snitch!' she thought to herself.. and her eyes widened. She took off on her broom, nearly falling off the butt end of it because of the speed.
It flew right above the Ravenclaw stands and she gasped, "Almost... there.." she said o herself, biting her tongue a bit. She reached out, and leaned forward. "YES!" she screamed. She almost fell off of the broom.. Her first Match, and she caught it!! She through her hands up in the air, keeping her broom steady with her legs, she went down far enough for everyone to see what she held in her hand.. she let one hand grip the broom and flew to the Slytherin Side, smiling widely. She done it!

Magyn had watched the professor released the balls and was dissapointed when the ravenclaw chaser had posession of the quaffle. Magyn took off and followed right beside morana and blocked her from other bludgers coming her way. When all of a sudden she saw amora landing on the ground with the snitch in her hand and all the alytherins were cheering.

(don't know if it's official, but ill end it anyways... if not, I can always change it.)
In no time Ravenclaw seemed ready to shoot, but then it was all over. The Seeker of the Slytherin team had already caught it. Smiling, he blew into the whistle.
"That's it, its over! Slytherin wins!"
