All my friends, they’re different people
Anxious like the ocean in a storm
When we go out, yeah, we’re electric
Coursing through our bodies ’til we’re one

❁ ❀ ✿Tanya paused in mid flight at Toby's call for a time out and gratefully sunk to the ground to drink her fill of water and disgusting (but helpful) potions. She didn't think she broke anything but her ribs were still achy from the first bludger hit and all the maneuvering. Now though she was feeling great and couldn't wait to get back in the air. When he listed off teams she found she had been switched to the red team with Arianna as her teammate as well as the first year Joel. She shot grins at both the other chasers before zooming up in the air to help when needed. Seeing Bella manage to steal from Arianna she flew over to take it back.

Rosabella had been so focused on her objective that she didn't even know a bludger was headed towards her. Luckily, Ronna smacked it off course. On the downside, Tanya had managed to steal the quaffle. The fifth year dived after the older girl to get it back.

❁ ❀ ✿Tanya swerved around Bella who had attempted to steal from her and looked for Arianna. When she spotted the younger girl she whistled and tossed the quaffle to her so she could go ahead and make the shot. She knew her short comings and scoring was definitely one of them.

Arianna sighed as the fifth year stole the quaffle from her. Man it just wasn't her day. She watched the ball change hands back into Tanya's possesion. Ari was shocked as the older girl tossed her the red ball to make the shot. She easily caught the pass and found herself in the position to attempt a goal. She wound up and chucked the ball with all her might.

It came almost as a surprise when Toby called everybody in. Dani floated down to the ground, and collected a bottle of cold water along with everybody else. So far, tryouts had gone well for her; though she'd only been called upon to stop one scoring attempt, she hadn't received a hit by a Bludger.

Like last year, she now would be playing against Julius to find the Snitch, and this time around she felt a little more prepared to compete with him. With the new teams figured out, Dani floated upward to take up an orbit above the pitch to begin her search.

As Dani scanned the volume of air above the pitch, her eyes caught a gleam of gold, as sunlight caught the tiny ball as it buzzed around. Leaning forward on her broomstick, Dani launched herself after her quarry. The hunt was on.

Celaena was in the air as the teams were called and watched as Arianna took the shot. She dove for it and whether she caught or not would pass to Rosa.

Julius scanned the sky and field and noted that Danica caught sight of something and frowned trying to catch a glimpse of what caught her eye-just his luck it might be the snitch. Then again, he never seemed that great at finding the snitch-or catching it-when it actually counted. Figured.

Location: Quidditch Pitch (Try-outs)

Chasing after Tanya, Leonette didn't quite make it when she passed the quaffle off to Ari. Watching it head straight for the goal she smiled when Celaena caught it and sent it to Bella. Following along side her teammate Leonette would be there in the event she was needed. Hopefully they wouldn't lose the quaffle so quickly.

Status: We have some really good players this year.

There was a little grin on Dani's face as she crouched down over her broomstick to coax a little more speed from her mount. As the Snitch started zipping downward and off to one side, Dani rolled herself inverted, and flipped her broom through a twisting, diving aerobatic maneuver. As she closed the distance between her and the Snitch, the little ball shone like gold as sunlight caught it, and it stood out brightly against the carpet of green below.

Julius clenched his fists as he held his broom still searching for the snitch trying to predict the direction Danica's pursuit went in hopes that might help him find it-or at least assure him Danica just mistook something for the snitch, not that Julius really thought that to be true.

When Dani pulled out of her twisty, turny dive, she was no more than a dozen feet off the pitch, and had picked up enough speed to almost close the distance on the tiny magical sphere. She could see the Snitch jinking to one side, and then upward before going another, seemingly random direction. 'All I have to do is guess where it's going next and grab it,' she thought. 'Easier said than done.'

Julius frowned as his grip on his broom tightened as he continued to squint towards where Danica was diving. Hopefully he'd catch sight of it and have a chance if she missed the couple seconds of chance she'd no doubt have.
