"So the dog is guarding something then? And Snape wants it." I suggested.

"That's exactly what I'm saying." Harry nodded. Harry's owl, Hedwig, screeches as she enters the Great Hall. She is carrying a very large, long parcel. She drops it off at the table.

"Bit early for mail, isn't it?" Hermione questioned.

"But I-I never get mail." Harry says.

"Well, today you do." I smiled at him.

"Let's open it." Ron said. We all open the parcel.

"It's a broomstick!" Harry says, excitedly.

"That's not just any broomstick, Harry. It's a Nimbus 2000!" Ron told him.

"But who..?" Harry wondered.

Now...........................

The Quidditch Field.......

"Hello, and welcome to Hogwarts' first Quidditch game of the season! Today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!!!" Lee annonces. Everyone is 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."

"Now, I want a nice clean game...from all of you." Madam Hooch says, looking 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 reminds us. The snitch zooms around each Seeker's head, then disappears. Hooch grabs the Quaffle. "The Quaffle is released...and the game begins!" Gryffindor takes possession of the ball and a chaser, Angelia Johnson, zooms past the Slytherins towards their goal, and throws the ball, and scores! There is a ding. "Angelina Johnson scores! 10 points for Gryffindor!" The Gryffindors cheer and then a bludger then zooms by Harry. "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. Johnson and Katie Bell pass the Quaffle back and forth as they strategize to score. Johnson takes it, throws, and once again scores! The Gryffindors cheer as Lee annonces, "Another 10 points to Gryffindor!" The Slytherins decide to get messy. They dodge, kick, and try to score. Once again, Oliver blocks. Flint grabs a beaters bat from one and whacks a bludger right at Oliver. It hits Oliver directly in the stomach and he plummets to the ground, knocked out. The Gryffindor audience boos while the Slytherins laugh. The Slytherin members head off. One jumps over George and scores. Flint and his teammates box Johnson in and sent her into the capes covering one of the towers. She falls down and is out. The crowd boos. Slytherin scores once again.

We notice that Harry starts to move but as he starts his broom starts to buck. "What's going on with Harry's broomstick?" Hagrid asked. Hermione looks through binoculars at Harry, then at Snape, who is visibly muttering.

"It's Snape! He's jinxing the broom!" Hermione told Ron and I.

"Jinxing the broom? What do we do?" Ron questioned.

"Leave it to me." Hermione said handing Ron the binoculars and dragging me along with her. We both run towards the tower that the Professors were sitting in and while I keep watch she lights Snape's robe on fire. We got back to the stand in time to see what happened next, to see him pop the snitch out of his mouth.
