The Girl Who Had No Choice

Chapter 9

I spotted my brother as I walked down the Quidditch pitch with Mor. Ze was standing next to the captain, and his girlfriend, Jessica Dwell. I strode down, Mor striding behind me, I stopped once I got to the lockers and changed with Mor. Then we made our way out to the pitch to meet the others.

Draco was there, as the seeker. Ze was there, as a chaser and co-captain. Jess was there, as the other chaser, and the captain. Crabbe and Goyle was there, as the beaters. The old keeper and third chaser had left last year, which meant it was open to everyone for a chance.

A group of boys stood together glaring at Mor, I guessed they where the try out keepers and they had probably heard that Mortem might be trying as a keeper, for it was not common to have a female keeper. Another large group stood opposite of the keeper group with mostly boys but few girls where there. In the pure blood families, it is uncommon to have a girl do Quidditch, because it was un lady like. My family did not care, nor did the Dwell family and even the Malfoys.

"Now that everyone is here, I'm going to be looking for a keeper, Crabbe and Goyle will help me and Zeus will look for the third chaser, with Malfoy helping. Well, lets go! Try out keepers follow me." Jess said.

I waved to Mor as she walked off with her Firebolt. I then turned back and jumped on my Firebolt to follow Ze.

We had to fly all around the pitch and keep up with Draco, I did it with ease, staying slightly in front of Draco with my Firebolt and Draco with his Nimbus 2001. The rest of the group were slow. My brother watched me most of the time with an easy smile and sometimes watched as I 'accidentally' slowed down to much when I was in front of Draco and he would have swerve and spin to avoid crashing in to me.

Once everyone came together, Jessica explained that chasers will try to score a goal, but the keepers will have to block.

The keepers took turns and so did the chasers, but now it was my turn, I looked up and saw Ze smiling at me, Draco staring at me, Jess nodding at me and the beaters looked like they were going fall off their broom from leaning towards me to much. I looked to see the keeper, a frightened sixth year. I smirked, grabbing the Quaffle and flew around, doing some flips and tricks. I then came to the hoops and throw the Quaffle with full strength at the keeper.

The keeper not knowing what to do, just stayed still, but the Quaffle hit him right in the stomach, making not just the Quaffle but also the boy go through the hoop, making me score a point. We were meant do it that it would be your turn until some keeper stopped the Quaffle. I went through almost all the keepers because no one could stop my throws.

Finally, I got someone who could probably stop the Quaffle, Mortem. I flew around, weaving between the stands, and flew to Mortem, I pretended to throw the ball through the left hoop to move her away from the other hoops. Mortem did not move though, she knew my trick, but I twisted around and through the Quaffle through the left hoop anyway, Mortem saw this one and flew after it, and she stopped it just before it went through.

The rest of the try outs were getting rid of the people they did not want on the team. Finally, it was only me and Mortem left.

"Well done you two, you made it in the team as the keeper and the last chaser. Practice starts next week Saturday. See you there." Jess said wandering back to the tents to change out her clothes.

Ze come up to me and gave me a pat on the shoulders then followed Jessica. Mor come up to me and smiled, we went up to the tent to change as well laughing and playing around.
