((Guys, I think we can assume that Hailey would've called time-out by this point, so I'm just gonna assume that he did so around the time that Krissy called for it. She's the Captain, so he'd heed her. That's what I'm goin' with, deal with it. As for the Bludger-guarding thing... I'll leave that up to others. )) Pat had been flying around the stadium, trying, as expected, to find the Golden Snitch. So far, he'd had no success in locating the walnut-sized ball, although no-one he could spot on the Gryffie team had made the characteristic bolt across the field that would make it seem as though they had seen it. Pat still wasn't sure who the Gryffie Seeker was, although he'd narrowed it down to either a tall guy whom he didn't know(Noah) or Britt. He wasn't keeping an eye on both of them, just in case it seemed either of them bolted after the Snitch if they saw it. Pat was also keeping an eye on the main game, glancing toward the players with the Quaffle every now and then. He had seen the initial scramble for the Quaffle, he had seen the failed shot on the Huffle goal posts, he had seen Abby take possession. However, the thing he hadn't seen was whatever had compelled Mike to yell out. When Pat turned his head toward the direction of the commotion, he saw that it looked like Keagan and Mike had been injured. Pat halted for a second, shouting "Hey, what happened?" before flying over to Mike. He cared about both Mike and Keagan's conditions, but it seemed as though Mike was in a little more pain, and Keag already had someone attending to her. Stopping his broom astride Mike and Nessa, Pat again asked "What happened?"

((Sorry, guys. Ryder says to tell you all that he's sorry he hasn't replied. He's not really feeling up to snuff lately. Listen to Patty boy. He knows what's good for you all ))

"THEY WERE KEEPING AWAY THE BLUDGERS!" Abigail yelled angrily down at Vanessa with a nasty glare. How dare that girl say Krissy and Jynx weren't doing their jobs! They were doing one heck of a job, if you asked Abby. Besides, how a bludger got past the two beaters while they were surrounding the chasers seemed very strange. Especially since Krissy was so good at playing that position.
Stopping in the air as Hailey blew the whistle for a timeout, Abby stared down at the Hufflepuff party gathering on the pitch. She didn't really feel like going to see how Mike was, considering two other people were down there, but Puffs were family and needed to look out for each other. With a swift dive, the second year landed next to Pat. Her facial expression was blank with only a slight hint of worry for she hadn't seen the older boy crying and figured he was fine. Pain was all in the game of quidditch, after all.

Brittany had almost taken off after Mike when he had obtained the quaffle when the whistle first blew. It was such instinct that she the broom had started moving before she realized what she was playing and had to pull back. Not exactly knowing what to do with her self, she went up to a higher altitude in order to watch her team and the Huffles go at it below her. While, of course, keeping a steady eye out for any flicker of gold. She had practiced this position before but had never actually played in it a game. Though she figured that having played chaser that she would have the speed down pat and having an exceptional eye for figuring out where the quaffle was located, if she could catch a glimpse of the snitch then she'd most likely be able to track it down.
Though as the game wore on, she found it more difficult to stay uninvolved, especially in the chasing matters. When the timeout was called, she quickly sped down to where Deryn and Keagan were.
"You alright?" Brittany asked Keagan squarely. She knew that they had to get their offense together somehow, but she wasn't exactly sure what they were going to do about it. Hopefully, Keagan would be alright and be able to continue playing chaser. Though it looked like Mike had taken a pretty tough hit, she wasn't exactly concerned with what Hufflepuff was dealing with. But she did make note to see if he was okay, after the game of course.

Nessa's words flamed through Krissy. The girl was pushing it with that comment. Krissy being the captain knew she had to keep her mouth shut though. But either way. Krissy hit the pitch with a bit more force than she had originally intended. Her knee's buckeling under the force or her landing. Her knees hit the pitch. Recovering herself and standing up she moved over to the ground of huffles. She ignored Nessa completely for the moment. "Mike are you ok?" were her first words, she was concerned about wether he was hurt or not because of the tears. she had seen him hurt before, she had never seen him cry.
She turned to look at Nessa. "Play your position and keep your mouth shut about the other players" she said looking at Nessa, it probably wouldn't have worried her so much had she not been insulting Jynx as well. He was new to the team and Krissy was glad to have him playing. She told the players at the beginning of the match not to fight amounst them selves and Nessa still seemed intent to cause trouble. Krissy wasn't going to say anything more to the girl.
Her attention returned to Mike. "Where does it hurt?" she asked him, the concern showing accross her face. "Do you think your able to play?" she knew no-one would be a better judge than Mike on that matter. He may be crying but he had spunk and it meant he would always try. And so she gave him the option though she would decide fully once she knew exactly what was wrong with him.
She turned and looked to Abi who was standing near by. A tang of happyness ran through her as she had heard Abi's comment. But either way. She put her finger to her lips telling Abi to not get involved. She didn't want anyone yelling at Abi, spesh not just because Abi was defending her.

Mike laughed a bit when Krissy asked him where it hurt.....ahh Krissy, even though she seemed oblivious to what had happened to Mike she always seemed to lighten up the mood. But first he responded to the argument going on before she had said that.
"How bout ya'll shut up and stop b******g about who did what and put my fricken shoulder back into place"
He said in a rather rough voice, great his throat was drying up. He turned to Nessa and smiled slightly.
"Can ya go get me some bandages and water from the locker room quickly please Ness?"
He asked the girl, wanting to get her busy before a full on argument between her, Krissy and Abi erupted on the pitch.
Girls.....
Mike thought to himself, rolling his eyes slightly
(Watch the language Mr. Rolen.)

Landing roughley on the ground, Matty hoped off her broom to the Huffle croud. Woundering what was the reason that Mike was hurt, she relised that it was his shoulder. And to her she thought if look pretty badly dislocated. Then screwing up her face a bit, Quaffle still in hand, she nodded to Abgails comment. Then a thought struck her; Every time we play, with in the fist hour. One of the Hufflepuff gets hurt. Because last week it had been Nessa, and now Mike. Who was to be next if it keeped continuing? Taking her thoughts back to what was happening infrount of her, she wanted to help somehow.
Although hearing Mike ask for some bandages and water from the locker room, she thought somehow, that he wanted her gone for a second for a reason. But she could have been wrong after all.

Jynx was quite perplexed at how a bludger could get through both him and Krissy when they were protecting the chasers, but he guessed it could happen and didn't dwell on it to much. He heard Nessa criticize him and Krissy's playing but it didn't really bother him to much. He didn't know her that well and thought that if he was not doing a good job then Krissy would mention it to him, after all she was the captian and played that same postition.
Seeing the team landing on the ground Jynx followed and landed just in time to hear Krissy's comment. Not wanting to get involved in the situation he just kept his mouth shut for the time being and went over to stand by Matty, since she was the one that he knew best on the team.

Abby flashed this expression - - at Krissy which I can't describe right now and shut her mouth as told. Taking a step back away from the group, her broom still in hand, the second year looked around at the staring eyes in the stadium. She had never realized how big it was and how many people it could hold. Her neck was craned as her gaze scanned over the massive blobs of yellow, black, red, and gold; it was definately a cool sight to behold. When her neck was beginning to hurt, Abigail returned her gaze to her team and shuffled over to Matty and Jynx. "Thanks for grabbing the quaffle," she said to the older girl once she had reached them. "I goofed when Mike yelled for the timeout." Yes, an excuse, but the expression on her face was enough to show how bad she felt for dropping the quaffle.

The Keeper of the Lions could only watch as the two chaser's collided with one another, his attwntion diverted instantly fromthe second year cradleing the quaffle. A moment latr the time out was called, the quaffle gone from his field of vision as he became more focused on the pair of chasers.
He hadn't rightly completely forgiven Mike for that Transfiguration incident, but it was mostly in the past now, and besides, still a person and still injured, that got the boy some concern. He was more concerned about Keagan however, as to his knowledge none of the Alts had shown up.
What. A. Game.

Vanessa glared at the girl that yelled at her, and then glared at Krissy. She realized that the Beaters were doing all they could, and Nessa was sorry that she had yelled at them. But still, Krissy's retort made her angry. She didn't have much time to dwell on it however, as Mike asked her to go get him water and bandages. "Yeah, I'll get it. I'll be back in a second," she replied to him. One last glare at Krissy, and Nessa jogged off to the dressing room to grab what Mike wanted.
Coming back with a bottle of water and the bandages, Vanessa took it right over to Mike. She opened the bottle for him, and passed it to his good arm. Still holding the bandages, she wondered what he expected to do with them. "What are these for?" she asked, "Even if we wrap you up, you can't play."

"Thanks Ness"
He said as he took the water bottle in his good arm and took a big swig before putting it down on the ground, he turned to the team and looked at each of them.....they were all concerned for him, which suprised him a bit.
"Ness.....pop it back in for me and bandage it heavily...i'm gonna keep playing"

"NO ONE is going to pop that thing in place without proper knowledge, Rolen," Ryder had stalked over to the Huffles and frowned down at the boy. Why he thought one of his housemates could fix his shoulder was proof Rolen didn't always think straight. If he ever did in the first place...
"No playing macho man today, either," he continued, his manner clearly showing that there would be no messing with the man today. "You can stay and watch if you wish, but I want you up to the Hospital Wing for a fix up."

Verina who'd been completely focused on the bludgers and the direction in which the other teams Beaters had been hitting them she hadn't realized what had happened until members of the Hufflepuff team began to call a time out. She hovered in the air as it became apparant that the other teams chaser had been seriously injured on further inspection it had become clear that Keagan as well had been hurt.
A worried expression came to her face though she didn't know Keagan that well she hoped that she'd be okay and wasn't too seriously injured. She wasn't sure what to do with herself in that moment so she remained hovering where she'd stopped when she'd found out something serious had happened. She didn't want to smother Keagan and it seemed like Brittany was talking to her to see how she was doing.

Vanessa wouldn't have done it. Even if Ryder hadn't come over, she still wouldn't have popped it in. Sure she'd do it to herself or her brother, but not someone else. But she did have to respect Mike for trusting her enough to even ask. "Mike, are you crazy?" she asked him, somewhat rhetorically, "Hailey's right. That's not gonna happen." She looked at him with a sort of "forgive me" kind of look, without actually saying it. Instead, she picked up her broom and hauled it over her shoulder. Nessa looked at Krissy and muttered, "Sorry," before just standing back and not getting anymore involved.
