David was glad that Teyve was waking up. "Yeah Teyve glad to see you're alright. You took a pretty good hit and it caused you to black out." he explained. "The same happened to Xavier." he added looking over him hoping he'd be okay too. "Sam said he'd post the results of the tryouts at the end of the week on the notice board." David told Teyve so he was up to speed on what was going on.

Risin' up back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance now I'm back on my feet
Just a girl and her will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the Eye of the Lycan
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of my rival
I'm the last known survivor
I'll stake my prey in the night
And I'm watching you all
With the Eye of the Lycan

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ walked onto the Pitch, pulling the gear to the center. Once there, she hovered above the ground on her Firebolt, a nervousness in her gold eyes. She had never been in charge of the team! Usually someone else did everything and she just helped out. Rem glanced down at the papers in her hands, which were shaking a bit. Hopefully she would have enough people try out to make a full team with plenty of reserves. She knew for sure that they would need a reserve Seeker. They had failed miserably last year even without Sam having been knocked out of the game. When he passed her mind, she cringed, but was able to let the thought go. Now, she just had to wait for students.

Surprisingly, Cameron was the first one on the pitch excluding the captain. "Hey, Remy," he said simply, giving the girl a nod in greeting. He was hoping to claim his position as beater just like last year. The difference was that he finally had his own broom. It only took four years of being a student at Hogwarts, but he finally bought one.

As long as you love me, we could be starving,
we could be homeless, we could be broke. As long as you love me.

David Clarisse
Gryffindor
Second Year

Location: Quidditch pitch

David as soon as he was aware of tryouts rushed down to the field. He was so ready for this it was all he cared about if not for anything else. He didn't know how things would go without Sam but Remy he was sure could handle the team and lead them to victory. Okay maybe he at least hoped that this year would be better than last.

Getting to the field he stopped in front of Remy and Cam as he tried to catch his breath. "Hey Remy... Hey Cam... Ready for tryouts?" he asked with excitement. He couldn't wait to see where he'd end up Chaser or Seeker is what he had his eye on.

Cameron turned to see an out of breath David run up to them. "Hey! 'Course I'm ready," he said with a grin. The fourteen year old looked towards the castle to see who else was coming, but most importantly, to see Elli when she came out to tryout.

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ waved to the two boys on the Pitch. Cameron and David... right? She knew Cam, but was unsure about the younger boy. "Hi boys. I'm ready as ever. Are you both excited? We've got some... huge changes this year..." She nervously played with one of her pigtails, before landing easily back on the ground. She held out a sign-in form to both of them, grinning. "Fill these out, okay? We'll be in the air soon."

Elli walked onto the field with a yawn, she had woken up, put no makeup on and tied her hair into a quick bun before heading down to the field and she still wasn't the first one there. She had purposely chosen easy to move in clothes that she wouldn't get to hot in, knowing how intense try outs could get. With a sigh she headed over to Remy, David and Cam. She smiled at her boyfriend and pecked his cheek quickly before nodding to Remy. "I heard about the Meridith's. It sucks..... You good?" She asked. She liked to think her and Remy had become at least semi-friends over the years playing Quidditch and wanted to make sure the older girl was okay. She had seen how her sister had been acting since the family took their leave. She grabbed the form Remy passed out and quickly wrote in answers to it.

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ looked over at Elli, an excitement sparking in her eyes. She hurried over to the other girl, smiling. "Meridith's? Pssh. I'll... um... be okay. Can I talk to you? Alone? Over there?" The Captain pointed to an open area to the left of them, a smile on her face. She had some news for the younger Chaser, some that would hopefully be welcome. Remy hated when people didn't approve of her decisions!

Location: Quidditch pitch

David smiled brightly when Remy asked if they were excited. "Yeah I sure am. Can't wait to see how this turns out." he said taking the form from her. "Right paper work..." David had almost forgotten about the paper work.

David thought long and hard about which position he wanted to play as this year. He knew he really wanted to be Seeker but at the same time he would like to be a Chaser like his dad. After thinking it over he went with what he wanted over following in his father's footsteps. He knew this would give Xavier a real fight for it but he couldn't pass the chance up. "Okay, done." David said hoping he made a good decision. He knew that his father would be proud of him either way. Deep down he hated the reason why the spot for Seeker was open.

Elli blinked, caught off guard by the girl's smile but shrugged. "Er.. okay... just wanted to make sure, cuz my sister err it's whatever?" She trailed off, not wanting to make the girl think about sad things or anything. If she said she would be okay, then she would be okay. She followed her captain over to the open area. She looked at the older girl, waiting for her to say something. "So... what's up?"

Cameron raised an eyebrow when Remy said there were going to be huge changes. He had heard that the Meridith's moved away, so were the changes only going to be about the seeker, captain, and vice captain positions? Though those were some pretty big changes if you really thought about it. The fourteen year old picked up a form and quill and began to fill it out.

Advanced Flying II: Yes
Years of Previous Quidditch playing: 2. One year as reserve, next as Beater.
Any Special Skill: Mean Swing, Deft Dodger, Dang Healthy
First Choice Position: Beater
Second Choice Position: Chaser

By the time he finished filling out the form, Elli had already snuck up on Cameron and kissed his cheek. The next moment, she was already conversing with Remy in an open area alone. He figured he should give them some space and stick around David for now.

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ smiled at the redhead. She looked worried, but Rem knew she had nothing to fear. "Elli, you've been on the team with me for two years now, and you're a fantastic Chaser." The older girl gave a bright smile, hoping to encourage the other Chaser even farther. She laid a hand on Elli's shoulder, eyes bright. "I would like to ask if you would be my Vice Captain. You're one of the only people I trust on the team, and with the luck of Gryffindor Captains, I want someone with talent to be there for the team. Just in case..."

Elli blinked in surprise at Remy when she asked her to be Vice Captain. Her Vice Captain of the Quidditch team? But there were people older than her on the team. Probably people with more experience. She smiled anyways and nodded her head enthusiastically. "Of course I'll be your VC!" She said, practically squealing in excitement. She wrapped her arms around Remy in a hug before backing off after a few seconds. She smiled at her captain and glanced at the rest of the people trying out. Just because she thought there were people more qualified for the spot, didn't mean she was going to turn down the opportunity. She smirked, this also meant she had no competition for her Chaser spot on the team.

Ⓡⓔⓜⓨ hugged Elli back, grinning. She gave the other girl a whistle, like she had worn the year before. "Thanks, Elli! We had better get back, I'm sure the others will be arriving at any moment... right?" She cocked a smile, walking back to the center of the pitch. Hopefully, tons of people would be showing up soon.

Xavier ran to the pitch like a horse when he heard the news that the try-outs are gonna be done. He was determined at playing it, though he isn't quite sure if he was gonna make it into the team, or just end up being a reserve just like last year. Chaser, Beater, Seeker, Keeper. Just what position would he try? Chaser? Yes. Beater? I don't think it'll work out again, but it doesn't hurt to try again. Seeker? Maybe. Keeper? Not so sure. Paulo was a great seeker, and Xanthus was a great beater. Now what would Xavier be good at?

Running to the field, he already saw the others there. David was there, and so was Cameron, Elli, and this year's Captain, Remy. He first stopped by David and Cameron, then greeted them, " Yo, guys! " He waved at them first before rushing over for the paper work.

With finishing the paperwork, he nodded, reviewing what he wrote. He aspired the seeker position even before he went to Hogwarts, and wasn't given the chance to try out last year. But even thought it was like that, he thought that the Chaser position would suit him better. But he wasn't sure. Agh. He knew David would be thinking the same as he did. He handed up his form over, and ran back to Cameron and David. " Hey David, Iris said that she was gonna try out right? " he asked his friend. He didn't see her as he ran to the pitch. Maybe she got lost? Possibly...He looked at the castle, trying to search other Gryffindors who would join them. Were they gonna be many? He hoped so. They needed the players.
