Mackenzie had been following behind Essie for longer than she'd hoped she would have to, and still no sign of the snitch.

Essie was nearly to the snitch now, and while Mackenzie had yet to spot it, from the look on Fianna's face she certainly had.

Mackenzie was too focused on trying to spot the snitch to notice that she was now the only seeker whose eyes weren't locked on it.

Mackenzie spotted the snitch just as Essie tried to reach out for it. Luckily, she missed, which gave Mackenzid a chance to catch up to it.

Mackenzie felt a mixture of adrenaline and anticipation as Essie reached out for the snitch while the brunette was trying to get there quickly before her opponent could grab the snitch.

By the time Fianna finally caught sight of the Snitch, Essie was already trying to grab it, and Kenzie was already giving chase. Keeping her eyes on the prize, the red-haired lioness launched herself after the Snitch, hoping she'd get at least one shot at it ...

Essie seemed to have lost sight of the snitch, but Mackenzie sure didn't. She was just gaining on it.

Fianna leaned forward over her broomstick, urging her mount on as she tried to close the distance on the Snitch. There was no way she'd get in a grab before Kenzie had a shot, but that was okay as long as she had her chance too. Besides, these were tryouts, it wasn't as though House points were on the line here.

I can't seem to face up to the facts;
I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax.
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire...
Don't touch me; I'm a real live wire.
Psycho Killer; qu'est-ce que c'est-
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
