Got a little short story for ya'll.. more to come!
"Callie"! Lydia yelled, beckoning her to the slytherin table. "Hey Lydia, Atticus, Malachi" she replied smiling at the thought of last night's party.
They were a week into school, and having loads of fun. Their head of house, Rodolfo Boltovere, gave them plenty of points for simple actions in potions, and it made them feel superior when he did so.
"So whose ready for quidditch tryouts"? Atticus asked, and they all grinned thinking of their Lightchasers sitting in the dorms. "I am, but sadly we can't tryout, we aren't second years"  Malachi said frowning slightly.
"Or can we"? Trevor sat down, smiling. "What do you mean"? Callie asked. "Well" Trevor replied "Professor Boltovere gave us all permission to tryout for the team".
"Ha"! They all yelled, surprising a couple hufflepuffs.
"So, what position you guys going for"? Malachi asked. Callie said chaser, Lydia seeker, Atticus keeper, and Trevor and Malachi beater.
They got up, packing their bags and walking out of the Great Hall, heading towards charms, Callie's third favourite class.
"Take your seats please" Professor Flitwick squeaked. "Today we will be learning about wingardium leviosa, the levitation charm".
Cassie pulled out her wand, Blackthorn with dragon heartstring, and had mastered the spell with the others only ten minutes into class. They messed around for the rest of the class, enjoying levitating quills to tickle the focused hufflepuff's noses.
The next week was quidditch tryouts, and a new broom also had come out. The Skyliner, a top of the line broom for speed and control, for a cost of three thousand galleons. Each of them had about twenty thousand galleons in their vault, so the day of the tryouts 5 owls soared into the great Hall, attracting many students attention by dropping the broom shaped parcels on the table.
"Nice broom you have there Ms. Rodolfo said, standing by them. " I expect to see you at tryouts, as slytherin has not won the house cup nor quidditch cup since 1992". Rodolfo stated, sounding perturbed by the even though of losing once again.
"Oh we'll be there professor, and that quidditch cup has our name written on it" Callie smirked. "That's only if you can beat us first" said the hufflepuffs, coming over from their table. "You may be fast but if you're as bad of a flyer as I have been told I wouldn't be surprised if you still fail" Alea said, grinning.
"10 points from Hufflepuff Miss Denny, and it won't be hard to beat a team from the 80's, of course referring to your Cleansweep Sevens, you're only 30 years behind the rest" Rodolfo stated almost lazily.
They got up from the table and walked down to the pitch, excited to tryout as the only first years there. When they arrived they met Ellona Spiritus, the Slytherin quidditch captain.
As the tryouts began, the 5 excelled. Callie and Scorpius, along with a third year named Jonathen Vreona, scored fast and almost easily against the keepers, except for Atticus who blocked 90% of their shots.
Meanwhile, Lydia set the new school record for snitch catch, and Trevor and Malachi had great aim and power with the bludgers. Feeling satisfied, the 5 strode back to the common rooms, confident they would make it on the team. The next morning the quidditch rosters were posted in the Great Hall, and they weren't surprised to see them all as first string players. They were also surprised to see all 5 from hufflepuff be on the hufflepuff team, and laughed thinking of how easy it would be to win.
The weeks blurred by, each practice going better and better, till their first match against Ravenclaw arrived. It was a close game, but they won by 60 points. Hufflepuff trampled Gryffindor, and by the next match against Gryffindor, tensions were running high. The match went well though, and they won 580-40.
The last match arrived at late March, and the anticipation was great. No matter what Hufflepuff and Slytherin scored, it would be their 2 teams in the final.
  The game came, and hufflepuff got the edge over Slytherin, winning by 20 points. Slytherin HAD to win the final by 170 points against huffle or they would lose.
A few weeks passed by,  people taking sides for the final. Ravenclaw was fully behind slytherin, cheering them on and doing their work while they practiced harder then they had ever before.
Gryffindor went with hufflepuff, and would occasionally try to injure slytherin players, especially the first years on the team. So slytherin and ravenclaw combined their forces, having the biggest members of each house guard their team.
The time came. It was storming furiously, and visibility was hard. Luckily, a supporter of slytherin, Justinian taught them the bubble head charm, allowing for their visibility to be improved.
They took to the skies. Due to the lack of visibility, they devised a tactic. They all flew together apart from the keeper, and scoring on the huffle keeper.
They were up by 310 points, a domination, but if huffle caught the snitch it would be over. Callie had the quaffle, and was about to score when she was hit by the rictusempra spell.
She struggled to stay on her broom, attempting the counter curse, but it kept failing. She had to score! Out of the corner of her eye she spotted the snitch along with the hufflepuff seeker, Matteo, right behind it.
Callie did the only thing she could think of. She pulled her wand out of her pocket, tossed the quaffle in the air, and pointing her wand at it.
She quickly performed the movements, before shouting "EXPULSO". The quaffle was hit by the spell, launching forwards.
The huffle keeper spotted it, and, right before he caught it, a perfectly aimed bludger from Malachi hit the keeper, pushing him off balance just enough to miss the ball.
The quaffle sailed through the hoop, right before Matteo caught the snitch. The whistle blew, and the hufflepuff team clumped together, grinning and laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" Madame Hooch chuckled, "You caught the snitch AFTER Callie scored the quaffle.. meaning the quidditch cup winners, by 10 points, SLYTHERIN!"
Callie fell off her broom, casting a spongify before she landed. The caught her broom, and the slytherin team hugged, as ravenclaws and slytherins jumped onto the pitch.
They walked up to the podium, and Callie lifted the trophy. It was such a great moment! But... why was her vision spinning? Spinning and fading, as if she wasn't there.
Callie hit the ground with a thud, trying to look around. "Ah. Good." A voice says, "Callie did as we believed she would... let her have some rest".
And the world fades to black.
Hope you enjoyed! Like for more!
