"Never," Arianna claimed. Popping the top of her drink, she held it to her lips, tipped her head back, and took a long swig before answering. Her eyes scanned the players darting about, but if one looked they'd see she was watching only one. "I just thought I'd come out and bother a few snakes. Maybe even get Charlie to actually chuck her bat at me this time."

"Yeah, keep it up Chase," Lauren yelled, slightly amused by the fact that the gryffindor couldn't keep Quidditch and reality straight. This was probably why first years shouldn't play, because they get too confused. However, Art seemed to be doing good and Chase's confusion was working to their benefit.
Lauren heard a loud voice across the field, surprsingly. It was Noah. Too bad they were playing Gryffindor, or she'd -- no, she'd still tell him to shut his yap. Honestly, she was glad she was far on the other side. She'd hate to be that person standing beside him.
"Shove it Tuesday," she hollered as loud as she possibly could. Then turned to Ash,
"Yeah, well, it's fun. But sometimes it does get crazy. Especially with someone like Charlie on your team. She's just into the game, very much so, if you know what I mean. Kind glad to have her on me. Though Art's doing good, keeping that Gryffindork under his spell anyway. Good for us," she said with a grin wearing upon her lips.

"And dressing in their team colors is going to do that?" Drew asked Ari, not sure how she planned on making that work. "Just keep your eye on the Slytherin seeker. He's a little punk, but I have a feeling he's going to actually be decent." Definitely better than half of the Gryffindors were doing. With that psycho firstie playing, the Lions wouldn't have a chance.

After listening to Howard and Conners go at it for longer than five minutes quite clearly from half the pitch away Corey decided to open his trap and quell the dispute. There was no way they'd win if the team couldn't even get along with eachother on the field. Bloody hell, last year's team was better than this. Why, oh WHY did people have to be pulled from school?
"OI! Howard, Conners, shut your yaps and do your jobs instead of yelling over who likes who, We got a game to win!" Corey hollered in order. Bloody untested...lousy...oye it was going to be a LONG season. Which also meant it would sem like eternity in his head. Practices would be fun. Real fun.

Ty saw Keagan stop in his path and for a split second thought about actually stopping, but that would mean letting the Gryffindors surround him and take the quaffle. Or he could try and dodge her but that would also mean a chance of losing the quaffle. No he decided that he would just continue in the direction that he was going and if she chose to stay in the way then he couldn't help that it would just mean one nasty crash in mid air. He figured that as long as he managed to stay on his broom he would be fine and they were going to have to pry the quaffle away from him, unless of course another Slytherin chaser showed up for him to pass to before he had to either hit her or try and pull out of it at the last possible moment. He would probably try and pull out of it at the last minute, but was certainly not going to act like that.

Arianna took another small sip of her drink. Her eyes now watched for the seeker. She could've said she wasn't worried about the little guy, but that could be a downfall. Never underestimate the little guy.
"You mean I'll actually have to fight for the snitch?" she questioned instead. Yeah, Pat had given her a run, but that was unusual. Most of the time Arianna felt as though the other seeker had given up as soon as she had sight of the snitch and started chasing after it.

"It's Slytherin..." Drew said, knowing that was all that needed to be said. The Snakes were tough competators only because they played a rough game. Beating Hufflepuff had been hard, but it would be a cakewalk compared to Slytherin.

"Yes, they are," Arianna leaned forward now, seemingly watching the game intently. Her brain, in fact, was working hard. How to get into the Slytherin lockers....or even, perhaps, their common room....Ooh, the damage she could do if she could get that far...

"Thanks Charlie! Art yelled as she knocked a bludger away from him. he kept moving at a pretty fast pace. he smirked as he realized the ruccus he had caused just by yelling for chase, damn how he loved how he could use the girl like that it was sooooo funny! Art loved this game, and one yell about a player could get a whole team going. " Eh Howard! you heard the Girl Move your fat a** and get the snitch! Oh wait nevermind I forgot, I AM THE HOLY GRAIL OF SEEKERS! You and your lion buddys should just park it! HA!" Art yelled to howard as he zipped by he came close enough so that if howard pulled forward Art might have hit him but for a full colision it would have to move at least two feet. Art loved this game and all it stood for...
Just then Art had a problem the combonation of flying so close and fast, and the fact thewre was a bludger coming created a huge problem, he coundn't dodge in a conventional way so he panicked and rolled on his broom. so he was hanging from his broom upsidedown and at a standstill, he could get himself back up it was just gonna take time and time was not on his side as a bludger came at him, it would easily knock him off or break his broom both resulting in him falling 200 feet to the ground.

"Whoot! Keep it up Arty! You little Playa!" she yelled although began to blush furiously, that was not natural. Why had she said 'playa'? Ash sat down and began to shut herself up after that embarrassing moment.
Why do you always embarrass yourself, Ash?
I couldn't help it...he is a player.
DON"T SAY THAT! DON"T EVEN THINK IT...
Ash fumbled with her hands, now very conscience of her surroundings and everything she did.

Sora speeded along, urging his Nimbus 2001 to go faster as everything around him became a blur. The air whipped around him as his hair was wildly thrown around by the gusts. His eyes scanned the field, being wary of other players as well as bludgers. He looked at their energetic seeker as he shouted at the top of his voice. He chuckled slightly as he speeded up slightly, spotting his teammate with the quaffle who looked like he was in a bit of a bind.
"OY! TY! Pass it!" Sora yelled a few meters directly behind Ty, though probably sounding like a whisper as it was lost in the roaring wind.

Ty heard Sora yell at him and was glad to see another Slytherin chaser by him. He glanced over his shoulder to see exactly where the boy was before sending the quaffle to him. This was the only option avaliable to him at the moment, because it didn't look like he was going to get by the Gryffindor stopped infront of him, unless it meant a collision and that would hurt. He glanced over his shoulder again and this time slightly decreased his speed and threw the quaffle to Sora.

As he heard the little Slytherin. He was now taught into grabbing a beater bat and knocking a bludger to the first year's face. But that was really cruel, so he wouldn't do that. But then his broom started to malfunction again. It made him fly all the way back then made him do a U turn. He then gripped it tightly to control it. As he did he saw Artemis infront of him not that far. The littledude better move quickly. Quickly. Oh no.
"MOVE!"

Though Keagan had stopped, that didn't mean Brittany had. The seventh year had continued flying around Keagan and up toward Ty. As the Slytherin chaser tossed the quaffle to Sora, she sped up and lunged at the quaffle. She succeeded only in knocking the ball off its path to Sora and it fell toward the ground.
Meanwhile, Keag remained in Ty's path, and when he glanced over his shoulder the second time and tossed the quaffle, she grimaced. Despite his reduced speed, Ty was now only inches from the Gryffindor, and she braced herself for the imminent impact. She doubted he even noticed how close he was.

When Ty looked back around to the front of him he saw just how close to the Gryffindor chaser he was. He tried to slow a bit more but didn't think that it was going to be enough to miss her. He would have to commit to a evasive move to avoid the collision. Two things crossed his mind. One if he hit the Gryffindor she might be out for the rest of the game, but then again so might he depending on how they hit each other. Two if he decided to swerve he might have a chance to chase down the quaffle that had been deflected by the other Gryffindor player. Deciding on the second option, and not really feeling up to being hurt, he suddenly made his broom go into a dive not knowing if he would clear her or not, but at least he would try.
