Quidditch Pitch. Day. A stitch of lightning as it strikes one of the golden quidditch rings and the clouds bloom with icy blue light.

Far below, in the stands, rain lashes the sea of umbrellas. As one flies free, soaring end over end into the sky, the crowd explodes and two quidditch squads Gryffindor in scarlet, Hufflepuff in canary yellow shoot into the air.

Twin bludgers fire skyward, and the match is on. We cut into Henry Snape, rising like a rocket through the mist, his robes snapping violently in the wind. As he flies, rain falling like needles before him, every dark cloud concealing potential danger.

Beaters criss cross his path. A bludger whizzes past, then a second rockets directly at him SWOOP! Henry ducks, watches the bludger shatter the broom of a Hufflepuff beater. The Beater goes into a wild spiral, vanishes in the mist.

Henry hears Ariana shouting at him to be careful with the bludger ahead. This is Ariana's first quidditch game as a Gryffindor Keeper.

Chasing the quaffle or the golden snitch wasn't a good idea with this weather. In the teacher stands where Snape was, worried about Henry and Ariana's safety match. His hand trembled fighting for the cold rain weather as he watch the games.

Snape doesn't care if he soaked wet, as long his eyes never left upon his children.

At the students stands. Aurora clutching tightly Susannah raincoat. She feels uncomfortable while Aurora is clinging to her like this.

"Aurora, stop it! you are clutching me too tight!"

Susannah squints upward, the players little more than streaking blurs from her vantage. KA-SSSST! A stitch of lightning strikes the tail of Tatiana Johnson's broom.

As it bursts into flames, she plummets to the pitch. Susannah looks disturbed, her eyes back to the games. Searching.

"This is not a good sign to win the match. This is indeed insane!"

In the sky, Henry flies fearlessly, as bludgers pierce the clouds above him.

"HENRY! BACK TO POSITION!"

It was Steve Mann, the Gryffindor Captain and Keeper who shouted from the stands, today he wasn't playing because he wanted to see Ariana potentially becoming a new keeper before he graduates.

Indeed. Ariana Snape was good with it. "HEAR ME OUT! CONTROL THEM!" Ariana's eyes focused until she saw the bludgers chasing over Henry behind.

Ariana muttered a spell under her breath, the bludgers then flew past Henry and it didn't hit him. Ariana sighs relief, thanks to her mother who teaches her a spell she could use for the emergency.

Like this situation.

Suddenly, in the stands opposite, a black umbrella flies from the hand of a Ravenclaw girl.

For a moment, it sails wondrously through the heavy air, a Magritte dream, then abruptly picks up speed, rotating like a hatchet.

Henry ducks, turns, and watches it disappear into a bank of clouds. Then, something glimmers: the Snitch.

Instantly, Henry jets off closing fast on the tiny, glimmering ball, chasing it through one cloud then another and another until one of the bludgers hit him on the back of his head.

The crowd screamed as they saw Henry fall off the broom. Aurora burst to cry hugging Susannah more tightly seeing Henry falling off.

No one could save him.

A figure rises from the crowd. Raises an open hand to the heavens. It was Snape. An explosion more powerful than thunder rocks the air. A flash more fierce than lightning shocks the sky.
