Okay... either I'm not as rusty as I thought or am having a really good day. Then again, try-outs have just started.

She winced as the bludger she aimed at Toby slammed into his back and she saw the pain on his face. Yeah, Toby wasn't going to be someone she targeted again anytime soon. There was plenty of others to target and by her calculations it was highly unlikely that Toby or her would even make reserves considering the turn out for beaters-or they wouldn't if everyone else played to their full potential and there was no overwhelming reason not to put them on the team.

Keith had made another swing this time at Crash. Leo shook off the hit by the bludger Ronna had aimed quite valiantly. And Cameron swung to aim a bludger at Keith but it looked like he missed and the bludger hit Cameron. It actually surprised her because Cameron generally was a good beater but even the best beater had bad days. She frowned before considering the rest of the Gold team and her next move. Was she just having good luck playing when the other beater hopefuls weren't? She was the only one who had landed a hit as far as she was aware of. It would be better for the entire team if everyone was playing there best, right?

Leonette managed to dodge as Tanya tried to steal the quaffle. "Nice try Tanya!" she called over to her as she headed for the goal. "Rosabella here catch!" she called out tossing her the quaffle. "Take the shot!" she shouted over to her hoping no one would take the quaffle from her in the mean time.

I don't patronize, I realize
I'm losing and this is my real life
I am half asleep, and I am wide awake
This habit is always so hard to break

I don't want to be the bad guy
I've been blaming myself and I think you know why
I'm counting time, and time's counting you
Every way that I do

Toby stopped muttering curse words under his breath from pain after a few minutes, and got ready to target someone again. His gaze settled on that second year Alexandria, who had been glaring at some poor first year, He didn't know their deal, but the possibility of her just being a mean person made him feel a little better at aiming at a younger girl, though he really shouldn't be worried about anyone's age or gender to begin with. He swung with all his might, hoping this time that his bat actually connected with the bludger, before he embarrassed himself again.

I just can't decide what I'm running from.

Did you say "please just follow me?"
I thought you wanted me
'Cause I want you all to myself
I can try to suck it up

I just can't suck it up
Make me feel like someone else
Please just follow me
I thought you wanted me

So don't stress, don't cry, we don't need no wings to fly.

THWACK! Cameron had missed the bludger that was coming straight for him by swinging a tad too early. A hand flew up and clenched the shoulder which had been struck by the ball. The boy spat out about twenty different curse words. What else was he to do after such a painful hit? After a taking a moment to recover, Cam had locked his eyes onto yet another bludger, and without thinking at who he was aiming at, decided to aim it towards Ronna.

Target found... though, it seems kind of wrong to aim at a first year.

Noticing as the quaffle moved down the field in the hands of the gold team and Leonette passing it towards Rosabella, the first year, Ronna raised her bat and swung. She felt a bit bad aiming at a first year but playing quidditch it was an eventuality to get hit by a bludger, besides, there was no guarentee Ronna's luck at aiming and making hits would last.

Rosabella caught Leonette's pass and headed straight for the goal posts. Once she got close enough, the first year threw the quaffle as hard as she could. It was rather nerve wracking considering she was trying to score on her biggest enemy. Just as the quaffle escaped her grasp, a bludger slammed into her which caused the first year to cry out in pain. "Ow!" How was that part of the sport?

Eun flew on, the snitch growing ever closer. He nearly had it. "You can do this Eun." he said softly as he flew on. You can! he thought as he drew nearer, the snitch was really close now.

Keith missed his shot at Crash too! What was with his game today? Frowning he flew after the bludger and aimed it at Cameron, the Beater for the Gold team. "Come on!" he said as he swung the bat at the quaffle. Come on! he thought.

Alexandria had been paying close attention the game and the pitched when she noticed a bludger bludgeoning towards her from the corner of her eye. "What the-?" Instinctively, the second year lowered herself by several feet which caused the ball to miss. Dark eyes locked onto Tobias before she realized the chasers were making their way across to pitch towards her. When she noticed Rosabella was the one trying to score, Alex glared again but prepared herself to catch the quaffle. When it was thrown, the keeper lunged to the side.

David was so close he could feel it only problem was so was Eun. He thought of how it thought last year to catch the snitch, how Remy believed in him even when she couldn't play. He had to prove he wasn't a mistake the year before and he was so close he could taste it.

Okay... I'm pretty sure I'm the only one with good luck.

She noted as the bludger made contact with the first year who Alex seemed to have some grudge against when she noted the bludger coming towards Alex. It was unlikely Ronna could stop the bludger but considering she hadn't been hit by some miracle yet it was worth the attempt. She dived forward to block the bludger when she paused noticing a bludger coming towards her and she managed a barrel roll dodging the bludger and glanced over to who aimed it and noticed it was Cameron and had missed her. She glanced over her shoulder, knowing that the other bludger Alex would have to deal with on her own-there was definitely no way she was going to get there in time.

"You okay?" Leonette asked Rosabella. "Ronna's got a mean hit doesn't she." she added with a smile. "By the way nice shot." Leonette praised. Sure she was fighting for a spot but she wasn't about to hog the quaffle either. That wasn't how the game was played.

Alexandria huffed when the quaffle flew through one of the goal posts. Her little, mudblood step sister had actually managed to score on her?! The only thing that made this any better was the face of pain Rosabella had made when a bludger came into contact with her. "Told you to stay off my turf," she muttered under her breath as she passed the ball to Tanya.

Cameron managed to hit the bludger this time; however, he missed Ronna by a long shot. In the corner of his eye, he noticed a bludger coming at him, so he swung his bat in an attempt to return it to the person who had aimed at him; Keith.
