Fairy Potter:The Sorcerer's Stone

Chapter 13:The Quidditch Game

The next morning,in the great hall.The gang is sitting,eating.Harry is twirling his food on a fork.
"Take a bit of toast,mate,go on."
"Ron's right, Harry.You're gonna need your strength today." Meredy says,looking up from her book.
"I'm not hungry." Harry says. "You gotta eat something,I mean,Erza's already finished two plates!" Erza smacks Natsu on the head. "Ow!"
Snape appears. "Good luck today,Potters.Then again,now that you've proven yourselves against a troll,a little game of Quidditch should be easy work for you two...even if it is against Slytherin." "Aw,come on now Sevvy.Give them a smile at least." Mirajane walks up,the young Gryffindors are terrified by the look on her face,it looked like that of a gambler,Severus himself was shocked. "Besides,you're sarcastically betting that Slytherin will kick Gryffindor's arses.I bet a hundred galleons my house will win." She smirks and she walks back to the staff table.Severus just sighs at his best friend's state and leaves,limping. "That explains the blood." Erza states
"Blood?" Gray asks.
"Listen,last night,I'm guessing Snape let the troll in as a diversion so he could try and get past that 3 headed dog.But,he got himself bitten,that's why he's limping." Harry explains
"But why would anyone go near that dog?"
"The day I was at Gringotts,Hagrid took something out of one of the vaults.He said it was Hogwarts' business,very secret."
Meredy catches on. "So you're saying..."
"That's what the dog's guarding.That's what Snape wants."
An owl screeches.It is Hedwig and Strawberry.The two are carrying very large,long parcels.They drop it off.
"Bit early for mail,isn't it?"
"But w-we never get mail." Erza says,surprised
"Let's open it."
They open it,revealing two broomsticks.
"They're broomsticks!"
"Those aren't just any broomsticks,Harry.They're Nimbus 2000s"
"But who...?"
He sees Professor Strauss up at the head table betting with Porlyusica.She smiles and Harry nods.

Inside a Quidditch tower.The Gryffindor team is marching towards the starting gate.They reach it and stop,behind a closed double door.
"Scared,you two?
"A little bit." Harry says,Erza just shakes her head. "Erza took fencing back home,so she's already used to competitions."
"That's all right.I felt the same way before my first game."
"What happened?" Erza asks
"Er,I don't really remember.I took a bludger to the head 2 minutes in.Woke up in the hospital a week later."
Harry gulps and looks straight ahead as the doors open.They mount their brooms and zoom out onto the enormous pitch.There is cheering.The commentator,Lee Jordan,is talking from a tower.
"Hello,and welcome to Hogwarts' first Quidditch game of the season!Today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!!!"
There is Cheering.Close-up of Gryffindor students.They are cheering.
The players take their positions in the air in a circle.Harry weaves in, highest amongst.He looks down. "The players take their positions as Madam Hooch steps out onto the field to begin the game." Lee says.
"Now, I want a nice clean game...from all of you." Hooch looks at Slytherin. She kicks the trunk, and the bludgers zoom out.
"The bludgers are up...followed by the Golden Snitch. Remember,the snitch is worth 150 points.The seeker who catches the Snitch ends the game." Lee announces.
The snitch zooms around each Seeker's head, then disappears. Hooch grabs the Quaffle.
Lee: The Quaffle is released...and the game begins!
Gryffindor takes possession of the ball and a chaser,Angelina Johnson,zooms past Slytherins towards their goal,and throws the ball,and scores!There is a ding.
"Angelina Johnson scores! 10 points for Gryffindor!" Lee presses a button and a 10 shows up beside a plaque with Gryffindors name.
Harry,in the air,claps. "Yes!" A bludger zooms by him. "Whoa!"
"Stay alert brother!" Erza yells.
In the stands,Gryffindor cheers. "Well done!" Hagrid yells.
"Slytherin takes possession of the Quaffle. Bletchley passes to Captain Marcus Flint."
Flint dodges people and throws for the Gryffindor hoops.Oliver appears and whacks the ball away with his broom.He smirks at Flint, who glares.Angelina and Cana pass the Quaffle back and forth as they strategize to score.Cana takes it,throws,and once again scores! "Yay!"
"Yes!" Erza says
"Another 10 points to Gryffindor!" ding.
Gryffindors cheer. "Yay!"
The Slytherins decide to get messy.They dodge,kick,and try to score.Once again,Oliver blocks.
"Give me that!" Flint grabs a beaters bat from one and whacks a bludger right at Oliver.It hits Oliver in the stomach and he falls to the ground.
The crowd boos.Harry and Erza are visibly upset.Slytherin laughs.Erza sees Draco laughing in the crowd and she glares at him.The Slytherin members head off.One jumps over George,or Fred,and scores.Harry is upset again.Slytherin cheers once more. "Take that side!" Flint barks.
They box Cana in and sent her into the capes covering one of the towers.She falls down in and is out.The crowd boos. Slytherin scores once again. Suddenly,Harry sees the Snitch.He starts to head off after it and then his broom starts bucking and turning. "Whoa!Whooa!"
Erza looks over to Harry. "Oh my god,Harry!" She flies over to him.
"What's going on with Harry's broomstick?" Hagrid asks.
Lucy,who's cheering with Gryffindor,looks through binoculars at Harry,then at Snape,who is muttering something.
"It's Snape!He's jinxing the broom!"
Natsu looks to her. "Jinxing the broom?What do we do?"
"Leave it to me." She hands Natsu her binoculars and leaves.
Harry is knocked around, then falls,dangling by one arm from the broom.Erza hops onto Harry's broom,not caring about getting jerked around,she grabs Harry's arm,desperately trying to pull him up.Draco is shocked by this.
"What a girl...."
"Come on,Lucy!" Natsu says to himself.
Lucy is hurrying up a tower.She appears underneath Snape and touches his cloak with her wand.
"Lacarnum Inflamarae." She whispers.A spark ignites and Snape's cloak catches fire.Lucy leaves.
"Fire!You're on fire!" A man says.
"What?Oh!" He knocks the man back,who falls into Quirrell,who then also falls.Snape bats out the fire and acts as though nothing happened.The broom stop bucking,and Erza finally pulls him up harder.Harry climbs back on. "Thanks sis,I don't know what I'd do without you." "What are siblings for then Harry?" She jumps back onto her broom.
The Slytherin seeker is after the Snitch.Harry takes off. "Go get it Harry!"
"Go!"
"Go go go!"
Harry rams the Slytherin Seeker,then is butted out.He returns,smashing the Seeker again as the Snitch dives.The boys follow,but they approach the ground quickly.The Slytherin Seeker backs out,and Harry pulls up his broom as he follows the Snitch,feet above the ground.Harry stands up,and steps forward,trying to grab the ball.He goes too far,and topples off the broom with a yelp,tumbling on the ground.He gets up and lurches.The crowd gasps.Lucy appears beside a tower to see. "Oh my..."
Erza lands,running to him.
"Looks like he's gonna be sick!" Hagrid says.With an Erza whack on the back,Harry lurches and the Snitch pops out of his mouth.It lands in his hands.
"He's got the Snitch!Harry Potter receives 150 points for catching the Snitch!" Lee announces
Hooch blows the whistle. "Gryffindor wins!"
Everyone but Slytherin cheers. "YAAAYYYY!"
"No!" Minerva mutters
"Yes!"
"Whoo-hoo!" Lucy yells.
Mirajane giggles happily.Harry raises the Snitch into the air and the crowd,and his team,cheers.
"Go go Gryffindor!Go go Gryffindor!Go go Gryffindor!Go go Gryffindor!" The crowd yells

Later....
Harry,Erza,Natsu,Gray,Meredy,and Ron are walking along a path with Hagrid,talking.
"Nonsense.Why would Snape put a curse on Harry's broom?" Hagrid asks.
"Who knows.Why was he trying to get past that 3 headed dog on Halloween?" Erza asks.
Hagrid looks at them,surprised. "Who told you 'bout Fluffy?"
"Fluffy?"
"That thing has a name?" Meredy asks.
"Well, of course he's got a name.He's mine.I bought him off an Irish feller I met down at the pub last year.Then I lent him to Dumbledore to guard the-"
"Yes?" Harry asks.
"Shouldn'ta said that.Don't ask any more questions.That's top secret,that is." Hagrid says.
"But Hagrid,whatever Fluffy's guarding,Snape's trying to steal it!" Ron says.
"Codswallop.Professor Snape is a Hogwarts teacher." He says.
"Hogwarts teacher or not,I know a curse when I see one.I've read all about them.You have to keep eye contact.And according to Lucy,Snape wasn't blinking." Meredy says.
"Exactly."
Hagrid sighs "Now,you listen to me,all three of you.You're meddlin' in things that ought not to be meddled in.It's dangerous.What that dog is guarding is strictly between Professor Dumbledore and Nicholas Flamel."
"Nicholas Flamel?" Erza asks.
"I shouldn't have said that. I should not have said that.I should not have said that." He exits.
"Nicholas Flamel...who's Nicholas Flamel?" Gray asks,turning to Meredy.
"I don't know."
