Chapter 10: Quidditch Tryout

The day of Quidditch tryout starts right now. Lesley and her fellow friends were in the Quidditch field today, along with the other Gryffindor players, including Silvanna. All players were wearing their Quidditch jersey and holding their brooms. Lesley changed her braided hair into a ponytail with a blue hair clip on top. Granger was sitting on the bleachers, watching Lesley wear her gloves.

"Are you ready for your tryout?" Granger asked.

"Of course I'm ready. I'm the most important Quidditch player among the seven of us, you know." Lesley sighed as she placed her Nimbus 2000 Broomstick beside her.

"Seeker, come here right now so we can start the tryout!" Silvanna Aurelius yelled at Lesley because she was a little far from them.

Silvanna gathered her wavy hair into a low ponytail. She was the chaser and the captain of their Gryffindor Quidditch team.

"I'm coming Sil, wait for me!" Lesley shouted back then waved Granger a goodbye. Granger mouthed 'good luck' to her from where she was seated. Silvanna got a case of kinds of Quidditch balls within.

Lesley was the seeker of the team. She became seeker when she was in Year 3, because she was good in Flying Lessons, like rolling and diving. Professor Alice was impressed when she saw her once, so she offered her to take on a seeker position in Quidditch.

Lesley immediately agreed. First, because she's been interested in Quidditch for a long time now. And second, because she can easily snatch the golden snitch with her crystal clear eyes, something that the other witches and wizards don't acquire. Two years ago, Gryffindor victoriously won against Hufflepuff because of her, and because Seeker Wanwan Agile wasn't good enough for her.

As soon as Lesley got to her team, Silvanna immediately told them to gather around.

"Alright, we'd have to train well for the upcoming Quidditch match next week if ever we win today. So we need to do our best. LET'S GO GRYFFINDOR!" she said in competitive tone as she got a Quaffle. The whole team cheered.

"Lesley," she whispered. "You are seeker so you're gonna have to catch the golden snitch."

"I'm on it. I'll try my best to make it perfect." Lesley said.

Everyone flew up and took their positions in the field. Lesley watched her team play while she stood by with her broom.

In ther team, Lesley was the seeker, Silvanna, Alucard Lone, and Hayabusa Shadow as the chasers, Masha Wild-oats and Badang Susanoo as the beaters, and Fanny Skylark as the keeper.

"Keep going team! Alucard, you have to perfect the timing when you shoot the quaffle so that the enemy keeper can't stop it. And Fanny, be aware of the Quaffle that enters our three goalposts." Silvanna said.

"But Silvanna, how can I shoot the Quaffle well if you tell Fanny about it?" Alucard asked.

"It's called Strategy Alu. We don't know what house will be our enemy." Silvanna replied. "Let's keep moving! Be strategic! Lesley, the snitch, catch it immediately when it appears in front of you."

"I'm on it." Lesley responded.

All players flew with their brooms.

Meanwhile at the bleachers, Granger overheard two girls cheering behind him while watching her bestfriend.

"GO GO LESLEY!" Granger turned his head to see who it was. And he was surprised when he did.

"Lunox, you're here too? I didn't notice you a while ago. " Granger asked

"Yeah of course. I've been here for a while now, actually.  I even saw you and Lesley talking before she went to her team." Lunox respond sweetly. "Oh, and I also invited my friend Selena here to watch. Selena, this is Granger, and Granger this is my friend, Selena."
