ABBY'S POV

😱😱😱🔫🔫🔫READ END NOTE IMPORTANT NOTICE! 🔫🔫🔫😱😱😱

It was finally the 4th! Which meant... Quidditch Tryouts. We still haven't picked a captain, so McGonagall made us write down the name of the person we wanted to be Quidditch Captain and put the in a hat. She's gonna count them, and pick the one with the most votes today. So I change into my clothes: black hoodie, black shorts and black converse. I tied my hair up into a messy looking ponytail and didn't wear any makeup. Brooke came out in a similar outfit to me. We both went downstairs to the Common Room. We sat down in our normal seats. Which were the seats in front of the fireplace, near the window. Professor McGonagall walks in. She looks around and counts the people. "Okay. Now that everyone is here, I shall be announcing the Quidditch Captain for Gryffindor, and in half an hour, the Quidditch Captain will host the Gryffindor Quidditch tryouts." McGonagall announces. "Yes, we get it, just get on with it." Brooke muttered. I looked at her, smirked and looked back at Professor McGonagall. "Alright, your new Quidditch Captain is...." All the boys do a drum roll on the table, and Brooke, Katie and I join in. "ABBY WEASLEY!" Professor McGonagall announces. Everyone in the room cheers. I look at everyone bewildered. It takes me a moment to realise that I'M the Quidditch Captain. ME!? "OH MY GOD!" I scream. Everyone laughs at me. I hug Brooke and Katie. McGonagall says congratulations to me and walks out. I go to the front, and by this time, everyone in screaming and chanting, "SPEECH SPEECH SPEECH!" "OK OK!" I shout. Everyone turns silent.

"The fact that you guys chose ME to be captain is crazy, but in so grateful. But I also want you guys to know that I will not be taking notes any slack from ANYONE! And this is gonna be my last year at Hogwarts, so I want to leave with the happiness of hearing, 'Gryffindor wins the Cup!' I'm so excited to be leading you guys in this new year of Quidditch. I don't care what kind of shit is going on outside, I want to lead you guys into a successful year of Quidditch. Now, go and get your Quidditch gear on and I'll go set up outside. I want you all out there in 10 minutes okay!?" I say, and they all nod, and clap. I smile, take a bow and go outside.

I went to the Quidditch cupboard and got out the box full of all the Quidditch balls. I looked at the box and saw that there were names carved on it. Oliver Wood, with the peace sign next to it, Harry Potter, with the snitch carved in next to it, James Potter, with a broomstick next to it, there were loads more, some were names I knew, or had heard of, and others were just old Quidditch Captains. There was a couple of blank spaces, which I believe were left for the new Quidditch captains. I took the box onto the pitch and put it down. I saw that people were starting to fill up the pitch.

As soon as everyone was here, I screamed, "OI LISTEN UP! THOSE TRYING OUT FOR CHASERS, GO OVER THERE! BEATERS OVER THRE! AND KEEPERS THERE!" I pointed at the allocated spaces, and everyone scrambled. A kid put her hand up. "Yes?" I asked." What about the seeker position?" She asked me. "It's taken." I smirk, and the kids who were going to try out for seeker, reluctantly walked away. "ALRIGHT, I'M GOING TO START WITH BEATERS. THOSE WHO ARE TRYING OUT FOR BEATERS, COME OVER HERE AND GRAB A BEATERS' BAT!" I scream. They come over here and I hand all of them a beaters bat. they got on to their brooms. I grabbed my clipboard with a piece of paper on it. I blow my whistle and they fly out into the sky. They're quite high, but they're in enough distance for me to see them. "I'M RELEASING THE BLUDGER!" I shout. For now, I just want to make sure that their shot is good. I blow my whistle, and all of them become alert. I open up the box, and unbuckle the bludgers. They shoot up into the sky, and the Beaters chase after the Bludgers and hit them as hard as possible. There's this one kid who tried to hit hard, but the bat is just too heavy for him. I instantly cross his name out. There's one boy, who has good ripped arms, and good upper body strength. I watch him as he hits his bludger away, and he hits it far, and he hits it strong. I put a tick next to his name. I inspect all of the other players like that, and I end up with two beaters. I blow my whistle once again. All of them come flying down. I grab my wand out of my pocket and do a spell on the bludgers to make them come flying down. They crash into the ground and I pick them up and buckle them back up into their spaces in the box. "Alright well done beaters. I saw some amazing talent up there. Now, next up, we've got the Chasers!" I announce. The Chasers fly into the air. They fly around for a bit, all calm before the storm. "I'M RELEASING THE QUAFFLE!" I shout, I blow my whistle so that I know that they're all alert. I unbuckle the Quaffle from it's space. I pick up the Quaffle and release it, let it fly into the sky.
