A large grin slapped itself across Vlaityn's face as she heard Amelia's whispers of violence. On a normal occasion, Vlaityn would have been more than happy to comply. With a snicker, Vlaityn mimed herself holing the boy down while Amelia took a penalty shot at him with the quaffel before directing her attention back to Xurdion.
"Chaser? Ah, fine fine..." Vlaityn fake pouted at the prospect of playing in a position other than Beater.
"Just don't expect anything too sharp." She warned before flying towards them. "You want me in goal position or what?"

"Lori, the kid's name is Jason and from what I know about him he is a fourth year." Amelia wasn't too happy with this guy so when she said his name it was in a voice of great disgust and loathing. "Seriously, this guy makes me wish I never lived in the states. He is as arrogant as anyone of them and what is really ironic is that I'm an American." When hearing about Lori and her idea for pranks Amelia turned around and glared playfully, "Oh no Lori not again. The last time you pulled a prank you ended up losing us house points and we just got the lead over Slytherin." Finally, Amelia turned her attention over to Xurdion, "So since we can't hit this kid with a bludger or bat what's your plan on getting him back.?" .....

"Show off..." Xurdion muttered to Lori, he said it in a playful tone and smiled. "I don't know and quite frankly I don't care what it is. This kid needs to learn his place, and fast. I won't have him ruining what will be a great quidditch season for Ravenclaw. Oh, his name is Jason..." He added the last part when he heard Amelia's comment. A dark look came over Xurdion's face as he leaned forward onto his broom and gripped onto the neck as he leaned forward. "Well, we could make him beg for mercy by scoring so many points on him that he goes into a fetal position...or we could try to nail him with the quaffel. Oh and Vlaityn you will be Amelia's support. I will go around the back and try to take them." He smirked but a sadness could also be seen in his face but he whipped off, hopefully before anyone could notice it. He threw the quaffel back towards Amelia and continued towards the goal. He stopped behind it and pulled his broom up so that he could easily manuever to get the quaffel when it was neccessary. "YA READY?!" He shouted. "Let's go!" He got ready to eye Amelia and Vlaiytn's movements as soon as they started. "You better brace yourself, kid, because you're about to get blown away by the full might of the Ravenclaw team." They had practiced this drill quite a number of times so they should all practically know it by heart but it had been a while but this kid needed to be taught a lesson so screwing up was not an option.

As soon as Xurdion took off, Amelia put her part of the play into motion. "Let's go Vlaityn!" and with that Amelia took off like a shotgun blast towards the goals. 'Ok, weave and dive, weave and dive.' Amelia thought to herself as she once again pretending to dodge incoming bludger attacks. As Amelia kept going towards the posts, she made sure Vlaityn was in her line of vision the whole time. About mid-field in, Amelia glanced out of the corner of her eye to see if Vlaityn was close. Without slowing down, Amelia pin-pointed where Vlaityn was going to be and threw the quaffle towards her. "VLAITYN CATCH!" .....

Pulling up abruptly from the deep dive Vlaityn had taken as part of the formation, Vlaityn launched straightup, catching the quaffle without so much a jar in movement. "Haven't lost your throwing arm, I see!" Vlaityn shouted gleefully back at Amelia, while taking her turn in the dipping and weaving of the move.
'I'd still rather be beating a bludger...' She chuckled to herself.
"XURDION. SHOW 'IM HOW TO THROW." Vlaityn launched the quaffle at her team mate, mostly because if there was something to be seen, it was Xurdion's throwing arm as well. Vlaityn had always been somewhat jealous of it.

Jason listened intently as more and more players showed up.At least they were British.he thought. He stuck his "possible teamates names in his head. Ok for chasers we had Amelia, my fellow American,Xurdion ,who seemed like his eldest brother Fay quite a bit. Then there was Vlaityn the beater,better make sure I don't get on her bad side. And Finnally their seeker,Lori, who'd come in on a sleek Firebolt 2. And the best part about it was they were planning to use a play called the Raven's Strike on him.What in the name of Texas is that????
Then they had started the play. Jason kept his eye on the ball as Amelia flew around dodging invisible bludgers or players. Then the three started a dive he thought Xurdion would move him out of the way and Amelia would score but Amelia passed the ball to who else? The BEATER! Then Vlaityn threw it towards Xurdion and he got ready for the play.....(occ: sorry base ball tryouts today i'd have answered faster but the coach kept us for like ever. Thanks for the tip "Amelia")

"Yea, well I was practicing some pitches with my brother Matt over the summer. Being raised in American we play the American/Muggle pastime of baseball. A lot of throwing and arm strength involved especially when you are playing further out in the field than most players." For a beater Vlaityn was doing superbly well as a chaser. Vlaityn caught the quaffle after coming up from a spectacular dive and now had passed the quaffle to Xurdion. 'She could've probably been one if she wasn't so interested in the beater position but oh well she is great as a beater too.' Amelia began to wonder where Seth was. Ever since Herbology class that day when he sent Stinksap at Vlaityn, Amelia hadn't seen or heard a word about him and that was about three months ago. Coming out of her thoughts, Amelia began to pay attention to what was going on with the people around her cause if she didn't she could probably end up being hit with the quaffle.

Xurdion smiled as the quaffel launched towards him, apparantly Jason wasn't fully aware of what was going on which was good for them. "Alright, we need to kick it up a notch!" He said, noting how their speed was somewhat lacking but it was alright since they hadn't practiced together in forever. He caught the quaffel with one hand and tried to maintain it's momentum. "Amelia! Look sharp!" He said as he threw the quaffel as hard as he could towards Vlaityn. It was a major success, by lowering his arm as he caught the quaffel it maintained it's momentum so he could easily slingshot it back towards Vlaityn who could now score an easy point since the keeper would hopefully be distracted. If not then this would go on for quite some time. The quaffel launched towards Vlaityn at an incredible speed and in a straight line. "Bloody hell, that muggle physics stuff works..." He muttered with an amused smile as he twirled around in his broom while he awaited for a point to be scored. "Okay, no time to get cocky yet, this keeper may still block a shot so I need to stay as sharp as possible." He focused on the quaffel, not letting his eyes waver or even blink, it was starting to hurt and his eyes started to water but he just rubbed it off as he waited.

Hearing the call of "Look sharp!" from Xurdion, Amelia turned her full attention towards what was going on in the mock game. Amelia thought Xurdion was going to throw the quaffle towards her but the ball ended up going to Vlaityn. Amelia preceeded to fly up into the sky. Amelia was going to add her only little trick to the play which involved the chaser who had the quaffle tossing the ball up about midway while close to the goal post, and the other chaser would dive down to the catch the quaffle and toss it in towards the goal post that wasn't being covered. A good but not at a super high altitude, Amelia sat and waited to see what Vlaityn was going to do.
[(OOC:If anyone doesn't understand what my character is trying to do I'll write a visual in my next post.)]

"WHOA." Xurdion had rocketed the quaffle at her with much greater force and speed than Valityn had expected, forcing her to improvise her normally smooth launch up with the ball to a slight loop before darting ahead of Amelia.
"TAKE IT EASY ON THY BEATER, HUH?" Vlaityn shouted while rocketing towards the goal posts. If she was reading Amelia right, Amelia had plans to score, and Vlaityn had no intention of stopping her. As she got startlingly close to a goal post, Vlaityn threw the quaffle straight up above her with great force before dropping into a deep dive, giving Amelia enough room to fly up, grab the ball, and score. "Make me proud, darling!." A mere shout of encouragement.

Jason heard Xurdion call out"Look sharp!" And followed Amelia up thinking she had the ball. Then he saw a flash of red followed by Vlaityn flying by, so he followed her down thinking she had the ball and then saw Vlaityn didn't have the ball.Where's the ball???????

Attempting to juggle with one Bludger bat was rather pitiful. Joel tossed the bat in the air, watched it rotate, and caught it again with the same hand. He was of course, whistling some simple little song under his breath, with a little skip in his step as he walked.
"Oooh! I Mini game is going on! Lets see if I can charm some of them into that game of there's. I think I see Vlaitie up there! And Amelia too!" With a little sing-song tone to the last words in his sentence, Joel put his bat in his mouth like a dog, and jumped onto his broom. Flying rather swiftly up into the sky, Joel got up to their height, and removed the bat from his mouth, holding it firmly in his hands.
Too bad their just playing with the Quaffle. I want to beat a few things.
As he floated near the side of their game, Joel couldn't help but look back and forth as they played.
"GO VLAITIE GO!" Yelling into the air towards his best girlfriend that wasn't his girlfriend.
With a wide grin, Joel continued his one handed, one bat juggling trick, trying his best not to drop the bat.
"I want to hit something! Awwww...If they weren't all so cute, maybe I could hit one of them.." Seeing the younger kinds obvious cluelessness as to where the quaffle had gone, Joel couldn't help but smile.
Aww, how cute! He thinks he'll get keeper! Lets just hope that he doesn't get hit in the head like that Gryffindor keeper. He was out for a month! He sure wasn't a keeper..
Ha..hahahaha..
Laughing at his own joke, joel continued to watch the game, hoping to see someone to fall, just so he could save them. The very competitive part of him was taking over, his urge to jump into the game was overwhelming.

As Vlaityn threw the quaffle up, Amelia put her plan into motion. 'Darn, she tossed it higher than expected, oh well no better time than now to improvise.' As the ball soared up about an arms length from the right goal post, Amelia scooped the quaffle into her right arm and then spun so that she slide off her broom. With one hand grasping her Nimbus and the other hand the quaffle, Amelia tossed the quaffle with all her might towards the right goal post without even pausing to take a breath between her tasks. After the ball was out of her hands, Amelia paused to see if the ball went into the goal before pulling herself back on to her broom.

Jason looked up to where Amelia had been and saw her throw the ball into the goal."Curses!" He yelled involuntarily and flew up to grab the ball. Or if she missed get back to his position. Upon reaching his goal basket Jason silently cursed. Amelia had made it in. He picked up the ball and was about to yell"Heads UP!" to Xurdion when he saw another Beater, this one actually had his bat. "Hey What's YOUR Name!" he yelled before tossing to ball out to Xurdion.
