Krissy grinned as she walked through the mud jumping in as many puddles of mud she could possibly find. She entered the hufflepuff quidditch room and noticed only 3 of her team there. "Hmmm..." Krissy said glancing around. "Howdy all" she said with a grin. She had walked into the room just in time to hear Parkers comment "Nar keepers are oe of the players who get the least hurt"
She had a change of clothes sitting in her backpack and a themous of her warm drink again. Always know she neededto keep her team all good.
Krissy pulled out her quidditch robes and got ready to play. "Parker, Kayden are you looking forward to the game? Ready for your first match, don't stress any you'll both be ok" Krissy grinned, people always got scared in their first match "Just have some fun and you'll be fine"

Seanna looked up from the bench at the sound of Krissy's voice, her nerve's now back to where they were before: taking over her, yes, she had calmed down a bit but now seeing Krissy and the rest of the Huffle's trundle in, her nerves came back to her full force, she soon had to play another game quidditch.
Seanna put her head between her legs and tried to control the sickness that was in her stomach, there was no way she was going to throw up, Seanna just hoped she could pull herself together before the game actually started.

[Er... Kayden's not here yet, Krissy. ]Hearing the captain's voice, Ana looked up from where she was still furvently tightening the laces on her shoes. Another member of the team had entered the room, but the younger girl had been so quiet the sixteen year old didn't even realize she was there until she spotted the petrified girl's face. "Oh, no, you'll be fine. Besides, I'm taking care of those bludgers," she added, grinning. If she tried not to think about the fact that she was about to play an actual game and not practice, she'd be fine. "Shouldn't everyone be here by now?" she added, glancing at Krissy questioningly.

Samuel heard the sound, "It sounds like the sound of.... victory," he said to Drew, and then walked over to his locker and sat on the beach to put on his Quidditch shoes. He tighten them up, then got his quidditch gloves and got them on really good too. "Alright, I have everything on!" he said to them. He didn't seem nervous now.

Her cheeks were as red as roses by the time Abigail Bennett reached the locker room. Bundled up in her thick winter robes, Hufflepuff scarf and hat (the little yellow ball/string/yarn thing bobbing around on the top of it), the first year stumbled into the enclosed space and towards her locker. Feeling sick yet again (only the eleventh time that morning), Abby dropped her bag on the bench and opened her locker door with a shaking hand. She didn't even acknowledge the rest of her team, for fear of vomitting if she opened her mouth.
Pulling out her quidditch robes from her bag, along with a pair of black gloves with grip stuff on the palms and fingers, Abigail quickly slipped the winter cloak off and the quiditch robes on. Wearing multiple layers beneath the robes (counting at least three shirts, two pairs of pants, and two pairs of socks), the Huffle buttoned up the robes and pulled on her gloves. She had been able to convince her father to buy her a broom, the gloves, and other such quidditch equipment over winter break while in Diagon Alley, much to her joy and relief. No more Hogwarts cupboard brooms, and she wouldn't have to borrow Krissy's.
Snatching her broom by the long, smooth handle, Abby took a seat on the cold hard bench and stared at her hands. Her tight grip definately reflected her nerves. Oh, it was going to be a long match. Abigail already knew how good the Ravens were, as she had attended the Ravenclaw Slytherin match prior winter break.

Parker nodded slightly, even though she wasn't. But Krissy's response about her comment was reassuring. Bending down she retied her white runners and actually did it twice just to bide time. Sitting back up, she tossed her broom back and forth nervously between her hands.

Drew looked over at the little guy and smirked. "That too. No, seriously... it's like a tapping..."
He wandered around the locker room, trying to figure out where the sound was coming from.

Alexis ran into the Hufflepuff locker room carrying her broom behind her. "Sorry about being late Krissy. I voke up a little late." Then she went to the other side of the room and began to change into her yellow quidditch robes. She felt rather nervous but, she knew that would wear off once she got in the air. Now she just hoped that she wouldn't screw up, the last time she played quidditch was at her old school so it had been awhile.

She could hear shuffling outside her locker; barely heard voices. That meant someone was still in the locker room and that Arianna wouldn't be stuck until the end of the game. That was good.
"Hello?" Arianna called out, hoping they could hear her. "Anyone out there?"

Jason walking into the stadium wearing his winter cloak and scarf. He had never seen a Quiddtich game in Hogwarts before so he was very excited to see this one. He just found out from his friend Tristan that his little brother was going to be playing for Ravenclaw. He thought that he was going to be there already but apparently not. He went into the stands and waited for the game to start.

Alexis finished putting on all of her gear and robes and walked to where everyone else was in the locker room. Taking a good look around she found a majority of the team was there. She went over to a corner and sat down holding her broom inbetween her hands. She just wanted the game to start so she could get rid of her nerves. "Does anyone know how many people are missing still?" she asked.

Aston paused midway between pulling on his robes and his pads. He, too, had heard the tapping noise but had supposed it was just a normal thing. Maybe something to do with the crowd outside. But when he thought he had heard a voice, the boy had to wonder if something was wrong.
"What was that?" Aston asked, setting his glasses right as he looked around for the source of the sound.

Ana smiled as the younger girl's nervousness seemed to ease the slightest bit and she began tossing her broom from one hand to the other. A few more of her teammates joined the fray as she stood there, broom propped up against the locker behind her and gloves tightly hugging her fingertips. Her beater's bat (or rather the school's bat) was laying casually on the bench in front of her, and she leaned over to pick it up once she was certain her boots were snug on her feet. No sense in having them fall off simply because she didn't tie them well enough.
"Does anyone know how many people are missing still?"
Glancing around at the gathered group, Ana did a quick headcount. It didn't really help a whole lot, as she wasn't sure who all was supposed to be there, but she knew for a fact that one head of hair was missing. "Well, Kayden's not here yet," she replied matter-of-factly, her voice trailing off as her gaze shifted to the lockeroom entrance. Even though her friend was only an alternate, she should be here any minute...

Drew paused infront of one locker and put his ear to it carefully. He thought he heard something on the other side but it was kind of hard to tell. With one finger he tapped gently on the door as if sending a secret morse signal to the occupant inside.

Yes! They had found her! Now Arianna just had to get them to open the blasted thing. It was getting a bit stuffy and she really needed to get out to the pitch before Allegra had a fit.
"Hello?" Arianna called out again, tapping her foot in rhythm to Drew's. She'd probably be embarrassed and have lots of questions to answer when she got out, but that would be better than facing the other words she could possibly get.
