Attack of
the Broom...Bum...Bum...BUM!
Author: Fred Weasley
Date: 12-22-01 23:41
Draco held up his hand and roared, "Stay where you are, Crabbe!"
His gaze shifted to Harry, who could merely snicker at the situation. "Not afraid are you, Malfoy?"
"Not in the slightest, Potter," Malfoy sneered, folding his arms.
"We'll just 'ave to do somethin' 'bout that then," Fred whispered to Samantha. The invisible trio marched over to Malfoy and whacked him in the rear with the bristle end of the broom. He jumped and clutched onto his behind yelping, "Just stop it! Stop it, for crying out loud!"
Harry and his ghostly friends giggled as the whacking continued.
At this point, Crabbe, Goyle and Samhain were already halfway to the castle. Malfoy high-tailed it off the field, rapidly followed by Fred, Sammi, and George with continuous whacks from the broom.
Harry doubled-over laughing as he watched Malfoy hastily run off. Shortly thereafter, the three returned, pulling off the invisibility cloak.
"Did ya see the look on that git's face?" George said, collapsing on the ground in laughter.
Fred grinned, "I don't think 'e'll be able to sit down after the beating we gave 'im!"
"Do ya suppose 'e'll visit the 'ospital wing to get 'is bum checked out by the nurse?" Samantha joked.
Harry shook his head and chuckled, "He'd be too embarrassed."
"Yeah," Fred nodded and looked up at the stadium outside which the four of them stood. "Sammi, 'ere we are...the Quidditch Pitch. C'mon. I'll show you around." Offering his arm, he waited to walk her into the stadium.
Gryffindor's
Act
Author: Prof. Binns
Date: 12-23-01 03:02
Binns watched from the castle steps at the scene below him. The professor had only been dragging his slumped self up the steps with a new collection of old books. He viewed a Gryffindor student using magic against some defenseless Slytherin students (names are too much trouble to remember as opposed to houses).
"By jove! Five points from the House of Gryffindor for the unacceptable use of magic." Binns mumbled without bothering to make himself present on the scene. He turned with his aging books in hand and continued on his slow, yet merry way.
Damn Potter!

Draco continued to run, and there was no guessing where he was going to. "Damn that Potter!!!" yelled Draco. He was so angry his face was brick red.
The others followed closely behind him not daring to speak. "Oh, you think some stupid magic trick is going to scare me, eh Potter?!" Draco said to himself.
Draco arrived at Professor Snape's office, and gave the door a hard knock.
Fang's Walk
Author: Lostark The Rude
Date: 12-23-01 04:36
Fang needed a good walk, and to be responsible I brought a bag to pick up what Fang left behind. Now if I could just remember what spell could lift the "gifts." "Urrr, Mobliafeces," I said and nothing happened. "Uh, Levitation Scroll, uh, up, up and away!" After several attempts I picked it up the Muggle way. "Oh hello, Lostark how are you?" asked Neville. "Great, you?" I asked. "Good, why didn't you use a spell to pick it up?" Neville asked. "I forgot it," I said.
"Try, Wingardium Leviosa," Neville said lifting some "presents" Fang left behind into a bag. "Wingaurd, um, Leaviosa" I said mimicking Neville. The matter just sat there. "I think you said it wrong," Neville said. "Wingardium Leviosa," I said lifting the canine refuse and into the bag. "Thanks Neville," I said as we continued on with Fang's walk. "Could I walk him?" Neville asked. "Sure why not?" I said handing Neville the leash.
Just then, Bucky, my cat, hopped out of my bag and in front of everyone as well as Fang. Bucky hissed at Fang. Fang being a dog decided to chase Bucky even with Neville holding on the leash. "Help!" screamed Neville as he was in the air being dragged by Fang.
I'm in No
Mood
Author: Prof. Snape

There was that knocking again! "Come in!" Snape said. Draco Malfoy stormed in. "What is is?" asked Snape, who was collecting potion ingredients.
"Sir, Harry Potter just attacked me with a broom!" cried Draco (in a whining sort of voice) "and he did it with some sort of magic...h-he enchanted it so it would attack me in mid air!"
Snape stared at Draco then gathered the ingredients and a cauldron. "Mr. Malfoy I don't have time for this!" said Snape.
Snape made a fire with a wave of his wand and started mixing. Draco looked surprised.
"Now if you don't mind I have things to do!" Snape said. Draco then walked out the door.
A Devilish
Friendship
Author: Clara Devaki
Date: 12-23-01 09:58
Clara stood there watching Malfoy from behind a tree as he confronted Harry. Then she felt a tap on her shoulder and she turned around quickly to discover Tempest standing there glaring. "Wataya want?"
Tempest, still glaring, answered, "I've been looking all over the castle for you." She sneered. "Should've known you would've been somewhere where you could see Draco."
"Shut your trap, Temp!" Clara glared back at her.
"Why should I?" Tempest began to circle her friend. "I find it a little amusing that you like Draco, an' ya completely turn on me!!" Clara started to speak but Tempest continued. "Don't deny it, Clara, you know it's true." She stopped circling Clara. "It's not like I care. Least you've got good taste." She gave a wicked grin. "BUT if it means that much, I'll try to not tease you."
Clara sighed. "Well.....Ok.." Clara gave Tempest a wicked smile. "Devilishly evil you are."
"As you would say, how simply devilish of you..!" The two girls laughed. "You're quite devilishly evil yourself."
Clara grinned. "Now wataya say we go make some plans to torture miss Mudblood Sawyer?"
"I say we shall." The two girls, with mischievous looks on their faces, then walk off across the grounds.
My Sweet Firebolt
*Smooch*
Author: Neo Anderson
Date: 12-23-01 21:09
Neo, Prote and Amerah all walked out on the field. Neo was carrying a package he had just got from his uncle Lyn in Ireland.
The three settled down in the center of the stadium. "What's that you got there Neo?" Amerah asked. Neo unwrapped the package, which turned out to be a broomstick.
"This is an early birthday present from my uncle, 'tis a Firebolt," said Neo. Prote and Amerah both ooed and awwed.
"Yes, quite the broom these days. Too bad I won't use it that much since I am Keeper on our team." Neo sighed, he stood up and mounted the broom and kicked off at about five feet.
"Oy! Prote, wanna try it out? Amerah can have a go after you," cried Neo.
Cool!!!
Author: Prote Spacy
Date: 12-23-01 21:26
Neo flew down and landed next to Prote. Neo handed the Firebolt to Prote who looked nervous.
"Go on then! Have a go!" said Neo. Prote mounted the broom and without warning the broom shot up into the air!
Prote took about three minutes and then came back to the ground. "Wow! That was sweet!" Prote said with his hair all messed up in different angles.
Then Amerah went. And she ended up enjoying the broom too.
They stayed out in the Pitch discussing Quidditch and the upcoming matches until the two Gryffindor twins and their girlfriend came along.
Small Talk
Author: Samantha Thatcher
Date: 12-23-01 22:44
Samantha gladly looped her arm in Fred's and he led her into the pitch. George elbowed Harry nodded toward the two as they followed. They both snickered.
Upon entering the pitch, Samantha lit up. She loved Quidditch and anything remotely apart of it. "It's been awhile since I was in a Quidditch Pitch. But, out of all the pitches I've seen...this one by far is the greatest!" She looked around and smiled. "Except fer the professional one o' course!"
Fred chuckled looking around himself. Then Harry and George let out laughter and hopped on their brooms (well, George was on one of the stolen ones *G*) and flew off.
Ignoring the laughter, Fred turned his gaze to Sammi. "You wanna see it from the stadium?" He asked.
Samantha smiled at him. "Sure." Fred led the way and once they got up there, they sat down and talked about Quidditch and the like.
"You nervous about tryouts?" Fred asked.
Sammi thought a moment. "Eh, a wee bit. But I'll make the team; I promise yeh that!" They shared a laugh, then watched Harry and George fly around.
Tryouts...Oliver'd give 'er the position, she wouldn' even 'ave ta tryout...Fred's thoughts continued to wander.
"You wanna go fly around?" Samantha asked. But when he didn't answer she looked at him watching with a look of concern on her face. "Fred?...Fred??" Her hand reached out to prod him back to the present. "Hey, Fred...?"
Her touch startled him a bit. Fred snapped out of his thoughts and jerked his head in her direction. "Hmm? Sorry Sammi...What'd ya say?"
Samantha drew her brows into a worried frown. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah...C'mon, let's go fool around with George and Harry!" Fred took her hand and helped Sammi to her feet. They mounted the stolen brooms and headed off to join his twin and Harry.
At this point Samantha longed for her twin brother. But she shook that off. She has a wonderful substitute.

I gape in awe at the BEAUTIFUL broom! It is AWESOME. I try my best not to drool at that sight. After Prote tries the Firebolt, I try. It is the most AWESOME experience I have ever had!!! I only WISH I had one, I do have my own broom...A Cleansweep 2001, I received as a gift from my mother. I find it hard to maintain my excitement about playing.
Fang's Run
Author: Lostark The Rude
Date: 12-24-01 05:42
Bucky ran all over the grounds followed by Fang whom had poor Neville holding on for dear life, and then I was running after all of them trying to stop Bucky or Fang or even Neville. "Help!" yelled Neville as Bucky, Fang, etc. buzzed past a Slytherin, almost making a Slytherin pizza. "Watch it oaf!" the Slytherin yelled at Neville. Fang and Bucky ran faster and faster. I leaped up into the air and grabbed the leash. But we didn't stop. Now, I was being towed by Fang as well.
Getting Ready
for Class
Author: Prof. Sorcha
Date: 12-24-01 10:38
Sorcha sat down behind her desk in her chair in her new office. Ailsa stood on the ground looking for a place to perch. Sorcha had just gotten her teaching job and still needed to settle in to her office. She still needed to decorate the office. She did remember to bring a stand for Ailsa.
Sorcha put down the stand and immediately Ailsa flew on to it. While Ailsa settled her home-away from-home, Sorcha looked through the class curriculum. There was a little bit to teach.
She looked at her class list and recognized a name on it. Samantha Thatcher. The Thatcher family had been close friends of hers for sometime now. She looked forward to meeting Sammi. Then she hoped that Sammi wouldn't be in a weird spot for being friends with the teacher. She would find out the next morning.
Sorcha put the class lists down and decided to take Ailsa outside to fly a bit before turning in for the night.

At last I manage to stand upright and stagger outside (That was some party I can tell yer an' not only did............)(Censored)
Anyway I stood up and Fang bit my ankle lovingly (as is his wont) when I noticed the note from young Christopher Lostark. (my young cousin).
(I know, we all got a cross ter bear an' he's mine)
"Took Fang fer a walk?" The note said....."Fed him???"
I look down at Fang and look at the note.
Funny fing Fang but you're here and Christopher says he's takin' yer fer a walk.
How odd.
Classes

Date: 12-23-01 22:51
The next day the three didn't do much but sit around and enjoyed the last day before classes.
"Wot classes do you have tomorrow Sammi?" George asked. They were sitting in the common room.
Samantha took out her schedule. "Umm...Ancient Runes at nine, and Herbology at ten." She looked up at them. "Wot about you guys?"
George grinned. "Well...Looks like we'll be seein' ya at ten! We 'ave Herbology then!"
Sammi looked relieved. "Oh good..." Fred patted her on the back. "Don't worry Sam...You'll be fine! We'll take ya to your runes class, and meet ya there when it's over okay?"
Samantha jumped on Fred giving him a big bear hug knocking him off his chair. "Oh thank you!!!"
