Term 20 Round II: Montagnard vs. Nuage Empty Term 20 Round II: Montagnard vs. Nuage

Post by Professor Bowen Sat Sep 12, 2015 12:13 am

It was a great day for quidditch, though to Professor Bowen everyday was a good day for quidditch. Today wasn't the ideal conditions for a match but who didn't love a challenge? It was below freezing temperature and there might have been rain last night that was now frozen over everything. The ground was hard to walk on with all of the ice, Bowen got the groundskeeper to melt the students a path to the pitch but there was nothing to do about the ice covered goal posts and railings. She sincerely hoped the players didn't slip as they kicked off the ground, that would not be a good start to any game.

Professor Bowen stood in the middle of the pitch patiently waiting for the players. She smiled brightly at the number of people in the stands, even this weather couldn't keep the students away. When both teams made their way out onto the pitch carefully walking across the icey field she gave them the normal beginning speech. "Alright Green and Miller shake hands please. Play fair and be careful and as always have fun!" She announced before blowing the whistle and releasing the last ball.

The announcers for this game are Carlie Jackson and Sophie Owens

Apollo was surely excited! It was his first game! He took a deep breath and tried to concentrate...It was his day! OK...maybe also the day of the other members of his team, but whatever... Either way he did it just for fun. What if he didn't won? Nobody cares...at least not him...He will do his best and try harder next time. 

He took off, to the sky and tried to to take the quaffle from the Chasers of the other team. They almost got to the Keeper of his team...that wasn't really good. He got closer and smacked the quaffle with his whole strength...He screamed and waved his hands in the air, as he saw the results of his move...Isobel didn't expect that, did she?

Isobel was feeling off today. Maybe changing Quidditch positions in fifth year was a bad idea. She felt very odd leaving the responsibility of the snitch to someone other than herself. But she felt like being a Chaser was more her thing anyway. She knew all eyes would be on her and the other new kids, so she knew she'd need to perform her best.

She shook Kayla's hand, wished her a quick good luck, and took off into the sky.

Isobel was happy to have gotten the Quaffle first and right before she could pass it to another Chaser, it was knocked out of her hands. "Dammit!" she yelled as she saw the new Nuage kid score.

She knew she needed to pick up for that fumble. When she finally got a hold of the quaffle again, she flew it as close to the goal as she could get it before handing it off. Montagnard scored that time, making the scores even.

Carlie wasn't incredibly happy with the weather. In fact, she was miserable. In Texas, this weather never would have happened. But the players just shrugged it off and let it happen, so she figured she would at least try to not complain. Out loud.

"Welcome to round two, everybody!" Carlie said into her microphone. "Hopefully everyone will be safe! Did anyone else slip on the ice this morning?" she asked mock raising her hand.

"Ouch! That's not very nice!" Carlie said, referring to Isobel getting the Quaffle knocked out of her hands. Isobel was so much smaller than the person who had stolen the quaffle. Maybe she should have stayed a seeker? "But good job, Captain Green! Never stay discouraged!" Carlie said, as Montagnard scored their first point.

By default, that sent the Quaffle back to Nuage to start with, but Montagnard managed to intercept it and take it back to their goal post. "And that's another point to Montagnard!" she called, barely heard over the ding of the goal sound.

Kayla shook Isobel's hand and wished her a hasty good luck before taking off in the air. She didn't know why the last part was necessary. Neither of them meant it. The familiar rush of adrenaline washed over her as she flew into the air at great heights. Within the first few minutes she heard the buzzer go off. Kayla craned her neck and saw Apollo had scored. "Nice move, Apollo!" she yelled as the freezing wind whipped her hair and face. Damn it. She rubbed her gloves against the wood of her broom.

At first she had been wary of Apollo. The guy was good but not very focused on winning. In the game, you couldn't dwell on the consequences of winning or losing. You had to keep your head in the game, in the present moment. Apollo was doing a good job of that.

Quickly, Montagnard Chasers caught up and scored. "Guys, remember the drill positions! Don't just scatter aimlessly!" Kayla yelled to her Chasers.

She spotted a flicker of gold near the Montagnard Chaser who had posession of the Quaffle. Kayla didn't think before accelerating her broom straight at them. She extended her hand-and of course the Snitch disappeared. At least, she had caught the Chaser off guard, and a Nuage Chaser stole the Quaffle and handed it off. Soon the buzzer went off. "That's what I'm talking about!" Kayla shouted enthusiastically, struggling for her voice to be heard over the crowd.

Kayla went off, following glimpses of gold and keeping an eye on the Montagnard Chaser. She managed to accurately predict where the Snitch would fly off next, but it always managed to evade her fingertips. She heard a buzzer go off again. Kayla looked up and groaned slightly.

Apollo was extremely happy! He was playing Quidditch for the first time in his life! Even though he was new, he managed to score first! He couldn't stop smiling. But this one, wasn't an ordinary smile. Apollo is smiling all the time, anyway. This one was a broad "I am proud of myself" smile. It pretty much lit his whole face. Apollo always had high self-esteem, but because of the low level of education at his old school, his level of magic wasn't as good as the ones of the rest Sixth year wizards. He was proud that he was finally good in a certain field of magic. 

However, the success of the Nuage team didn't last for long. Isobel scored right after Apollo, quicker than anybody expected.

"Damn!" He didn't expect that! Before he could even get annoyed, another Montagnard Chaser scored! His eyes widened in surprise...How were they so fast? Fortunately, a Nuage Chaser managed to score for their team as well, and balanced the score.

"HERE I COME~!!!!" He said at the top of his lungs. He flew as fast as he could. He took the Quaffle quickly and within seconds scored for Nuage. Even he didn't realize how fast he went. He wasn't thinking at all. He was just...acting. Well, that was pretty much the way he lived his life, so it came naturally to him. The other players seemed surprised, to say the least. Apollo laughed awkwardly.

"W-what? Let's continue the game!" He said and grinned. He was surely having a lot of fun. Probably Quidditch was going to become one of his favorite sports. Who knew?

Isobel was annoyed. Who did this kid think he was? Did he not realize that this was a team game? "Stop being a showoff!" she shouted as she caught the quaffle, feeling numbness in her fingers from the cold around her. She wanted this game to be over with. She knew they were going to lose anyway, so she wondered what the point even was.

Isobel dashed to the goal posts, and handed the quaffle off to another teammate. They caught it and tossed through the ring. "Nice one!" she encouraged.

Isobel felt a cold breeze. Even through all the layers of clothing she wore, she was frozen. Couldn't Kayla just catch the damn snitch already?
