YR 1 [CHAPTER 17]

FACTS AND FEATHERS

we met oliver at the common room and asked us to follow him he was bringing this big trunk then we arrived at the courtyard then he paused then put the trunk down

"Quidditch is easy enough to understand. Each time has seven players. Three Chasers, thats you, y/n. two Beaters, one Keeper and a Seeker. And thats you, harry. There are three kinds of balls." oliver explained then went towards the trunk opening it

then picked up a red ball

"This one's called the Quaffle. Now, the chasers handle the Quaffle and try to put it through one of those three hoops." he said then looked at me

"now y/n this is your job, you and the other chasers will have to pass this on to eachother and have to build a teamwork not just you three but to us as well but you have to throw the quaffle to the hoops and you get the score" he added

"the keeper, thats me defends the hoops" he added then smiled warmly at me

then he look at harry

"with me so far?" he threw the ball at harry then no suprise harry catched it

"I think so. What are those?" harry askes pointing at the two ball who were trying to get out of the cage

"you guys better take this" he said handling me and harry a bat

He bends down and releases one ball. With an angry growl, it flies off into the air.

"Careful now, it's coming back." he said as he watch the ball squirming its way to us

it came down and harry hit the ball towards me while i hit it towards no one so it wouldnt hurt anyone

"Not bad, Potters. You'd two make a fair Beater. Uh-oh." he hissed then catch the ball wiggling at his arms then oliver succesfully put it to the trunk locking it.

"what was that?!" harry shouted

"Bludger. Nasty little buggers. But you are a Seeker. And the only thing I want you to worry about is this. The Golden Snitch." he then gave harry a ball that is golden, harry looked at me with an awe face while i smiled at him

"i like this ball" he said to oliver

"Ah, you like it now. Just wait. It's wicked fast and damn near impossible to see." he said in a very thick accent

"what do i do with it?" asked harry

"You catch it. Before the other team's Seeker. You catch this, the game is over. You catch this, Potter, and we win." oliver explained

and then the ball suddenly moved then revealed it has wings

"whoa" me and harry said at the same time

In Professor Flitwick's class. Professor Filtwick is very short, and is standing on a bunch of books to make up for his stature

"One of a wizard's most rudimentary skills is levitation, or the ability to make objects fly. Uh, do you have your feathers?" hermoine then raised her feather then i saw ron rolled his eyes at her causing me to chuckle at them

"Good. Now, uh, don't forget the nice wrist movement we've been practising. Hmm? The swish and flick. Everyone."

me and hermoine watch our classmates do their magic

"good. Oh, and enunciate. Wingardium Leviosa. Off you go, then." professor flitwick said

i looked at seamus who was on my right side he was doing his hard and then i heard ron chanted so i looked at him

"Wingardrium Leviosar!" he chanted while aggresively points his wand at the poor feather

"No, stop, stop, stop! You're going to take someone's eye out. Besides, you're saying it wrong. It's Levi-o-sa, not Leviosar." hermoine corrected while pulling ron's arm away from the feather

"You do it, then, if you're so clever. Go on, go on." ron said scoffing

hermoine then straightened up and picks up her wand clearing her throat

"Wingardium Leviosa." she chanted and no suprise the feather flew to the air she then looked  at ron and smirked

"Oh, well done! See here, everyone, Miss Granger's done it! Oh, splendid!" professor flitwick said and smiled at hermoine who smiled back at professor flitwick

i noticed seamus looked at the feather with envy so he picked his wand 

"Wingard Leviosa. Wingar-"

"well done, dear"

BOOM

seamus wand was exploded and his face full of ashes from the explosion and me and harry who was beside him were also full of ashes but just half of our robes

"I think we're going to need another feather over here, Professor." harry said still looking shock

"on second thoughts, professor, just a new robe and a wash on the face" i said gulping

the class were now dismissed so me and hermoine picked up our things and started walking away the boys went first with their boy friends

we were walking to the courtyard when we heard the boys mimicking something me and hermoine were about to catch when we heard ron mimick

"It's Levioooosa, not Leviosaaaar." he mimicks i stopped at my tracks knowing who he was mocking about i looked at hermoine she was tearing up

"She's a nightmare, honestly! No wonder she hasn't got any friends!" he added this made me angrier than ever.

hermoine then walked past them bumping to ron hugging her books tightly as she sniffles lightly

i was about to catch up to hermoine when i heard my brother talk

"I think she heard you." i turned around at them and grabbed ron by his tie

"if you dont apologize to hermoine ill be the one to kill you myself" i said threathing him and pushed him away then ran to catch up to hermoine
