Hovering amongst the branches, Shay stayed at the foot of the forest. The day was light and sunny for a winter, but somehow the forest didn't absorb what the rest of the world did.
Playing the staring game with the woods, Shay made the intiative. Leaning forward and grasping the handle tighter, she took a few meters back. Gaining momentum by every inhale and exhale, she zoomed into the forest. This was a god form of practice, she thought to herself as she zig-zagged and dodged every branch. Give or take a few scratches, she was doing pretty well.

Reina was in the forest doing her own thing when she saw Shay break through a few trees running at top speed. Reina was so scared she followed right behind Shay keeping step with her. Reina kept glancing back expecting to see centaurs, gigantic spiders, a prof. anything.
{Ever been anywhere and one person starts running and everyone starts running too. Same thing.)

(I never mentioned that it was on broom...  Me=dumb) Squinting at the gust s of wind that passed through her, she zig-zagged some more, dodging a huge tree. Sucessfully passing by the tree, she started to feel the presence behind her. Feeling a bit panicked, she dipped low near the ground, maybe to stun them. |

(lol okay I'm running underneath you. Whew! I'm fast.)
Reina was on full adrenaline. She was terrified of already being caught and she wasn't even near halfway done. Crap, crap, crap! Reina saw Shay dip low a few feet ahead of her.
"SHAY WHAT ARE WE RUNNING FROM?!"

Shay did a double take when she saw Reina. By the second look, however, she didn't see the tree limb right away.
The gigantic force lifted her from the broom and gravity took over. Landing flat on her back, she looked at the upside-down Reina and groaned.

Reina skidded to a stop and halted just in time for Shay to roll at her feet. Reina smirked.
"That's not the right way to stop a broom you know?"
Reina glanced back behind her.
"Get up! What are we running from? Let's go?"

Shay jumped up and darted her eyes around to look for her broom. Hearing the panic in Reina's voice, she responded in confusion. "Wha-- huh-- What are you talking about? I'm not running from anything!" She looked behind the girl just to see if she was sure.

Reina slowly turned back to Shay and she forced anger into her eyes to mask the humiliation she was feeling.
"What the heck were you flying so fast for then?"
Reina glanced behind her looking to where Shay was looking just to make sure she was sure.

Shay put an extended hand on Reina's shoulder and she shook her head while looking at the ground. "I was training. You know, grab some wind before the quidditch seasons starts up again." She looked up at the Slytherin and made a sheepish smile. For a moment she wondered if she had a 'deer front of the headlights' look when she played quidditch.

Reina shrugged Shay's hand off.
"Here I am doing...whatever and I thought a centaur who would kill us or worse a prof. was out there and that's why you booked! I .. I ... Shay!"
Reina was so angry she wanted to punch her.

"Oh..." Shay murmured. She put out her lower lip and said sympathetically, "I'm sorry, Reina. I didn't mean to scare you like that." She tilted her head and pouted again before she came back to a smile. "Hey! How about you train with me?"

Reina was still trying to control her anger on the inside, but her outward appearance clearly look thoughtful. Revenge? Yes. Reina smiled at Shay who she considers an acquaintance.
"Ok. I could use some training myself. What do you suggest? Me throw boulders at you? Chase after you with a bat?"

She had her eyes wide for a moment, but they returned to normal size to hide her intial shock. "Ay, Reina, you're such a great kidder!" She kept her smile, though it was feeling a little tired. It didn't occur how much it would really made Reina mad.
"Look, what I'm doing is just weaving in and out between the trees for speed and accuracy. You should join me, since we're both chasers," Shay turned her back to look for her broom again. "Just as soon as I find my broom..."

Reina gave a small fake giggle that was just a little hollow.
"Yeah, kidding." I'm gonna smack her grin right... "What yeah just let me get my broom. Accio Broom!"
Reina patiently waited for her broom to come to her not helping Shay find hers.

Shay's eyes searched for the broom. Spying on a waxed branch, she held out her hand and summoned it. Sure enough, that was her broom that hid.
But by then, Reina was still waiting for her broom. Feeling a little awkward and tense, she attempted to break the ice. "So... How's life, Reina?"
