Post 36
I knew that Harry would pick me for the team. He's such a push over when it comes to the little unimportant things in life. But I still had to try my hardest in order to show everyone else how capable I am. I was trying out for chaser. I didn't enjoy being a seeker as much last year after Harry got banned by Professor Umbridge and I was to take his place. I like being more involved in the game. Harry split the group into two teams and poor Ron was so nervous trying out for keeper, that it only made things worse when Hermione had taken a seat in the stands to watch the trials. I shook my head. I knew what her little game was- she wouldn't rest until everyone else was as miserable and boring as herself. I was glad to see the familiar face of Katie Bell who was also trying out for chaser. We make quite a good team if I do say so myself! Instead of our usual and traditional quidditch attire, she had opted for a much more feminine set of robes that were black and bright pink, with a silvery metallic stripe down the side of each arm and leg. The little third year boy kept on glancing our way occasionally; I couldn't help but laugh. He was a typical little teenage boy who just hated all girls as it seems. I smiled politely only for it to be returned by an icy glare. He was trying out for beater. We really needed someone good now that Fred and George had left school though.
Once the game started, Katie and I worked well to get the quaffle past Cormac, each time we neared the goals. I was getting ready for Katie to pass me the quaffle. I went flying along the right hand side. I spotted the little third year getting ready to swing his bat, making the bludger come straight at me. I thought I'd dodged it but before I knew, I was falling to the ground. I was screaming. I felt like something had ripped a hole right though my body. Then everything went black. I felt myself land with a soft thud on the ground. Then I really passed out.

"Ginny" I heard a voice; I recognised it as Ron. I could feel people. I could sense them all around me.
"Gin. Can you hear me? It’s going to be ok." It was Harry. I could hear the panic in his voice. He squeezed my hand tightly then brought it to his lips. He kissed my knuckles and began running soothing circles along my fingers.
"We need to get her to the hospital wing Harry."
I then heard a different voice. Hermione. She was panting. "Is she ok?"
"Like you'd care." I heard Harry grunt.
"Harry please. Not now! Is she ok? I tried to slow down her fall."
I felt someone try to pick me up, "Owwwwww!!!" I whimpered and began to cry. I opened my eyes as Harry put me back down quickly.
"Harry, go and get Madam Pomfrey. The rest of you scram."
"Ron I'm not going anywhere! I'm not leaving her."
My eyes opened. My head was thumping. I felt really dizzy and wouldn't have been surprised if I had birds circling my forehead.
"I really wish you two wouldn't fight." Everyone was staring at me. "Bloody hell! I need help." I cried the tears staining my face and my eyes welling up for another round of water works!
"Where did you get hurt?"
"My ribs. Please don't move me. It hurts so much."
"I'll go and get Madam Pomfrey since none of you will!" She run clumsily into the building.
"Ok everyone listen up!" Harry shouted clearly to get everyone’s attention. "You all did very well today. As soon as I've made up my mind I'll post the list of those who made the team inside the common room on the notice board at the door. Please don't go ranting and raving to everyone if you made the team because we don't want the other houses knowing about the fantastic Gryffindor team we'll have lined up." He grinned.
"Umm Harry!" I said frustrated. "I'm glad to know you've got your priorities right." I sobbed. "I can't feel anything below me neck because I'm in so much pain and your talking about quidditch! Bloody QUIDDITCH!"
"Aww Ginny breathe. You don't know what you’re saying. When men talk about quidditch, we can't help ourselves."
"MEN! You two are barely responsible children never mind men."
"I know what I can do!" Ron pulled out his wand and pointed it at my body. "Brackium Emendo"
"What are you doing!" I said as my eyes widened. But before Harry or I could stop him I could feel my bones dissolve from beneath my skin and my body became shapeless.
"Ron! What have you done?!" I yelled poking at my body. It had turned into stretchy flab.
"Where on earth did you learn that! That’s what that stupid Lockhart did to me." Harry shouted at him.
"WHAT!" I screamed, remembering what Harry had to go through. "Aw Merlin, My head's spinning. I feel sick." And I passed out for the second time.
So...how was it... :S
