Hyun swam around for a few minutes while waiting for the other students to come down the hatch too. It didn't take long before some where brave enough and jumped in too. He turned around just in time to see their head of house grab the fin of a fish and took her further in to the water. He also saw the other students doing the same thing and swam away with full speed.
Not wanting to be left alone, Hyun waited for another school of fish to come and grabbed the largest one by its fins. He zoomed through the water after two first years which one he recoqnized as his quidditch team mate.
After some time, Hyun started to think about ...things... What would happen if the Gillyweed stopped working before they notice the time! Had ANYONE even a watch with them? he knew he didn't.

Even though she'd been in school for nearly half a school year, she still hadn't gotten around to meeting everyone in her house just yet. She didn't imagine a lake full of water was the best place to meet someone either. All she could do was possibly smile and wave.
She did think she saw a few people who were on the Quidditch team with her, but it was kind of hard to make out faces with all the charms and gillyweed taking their effect. Lafay swam by at that point, though, and it wasn't difficult at all to pick her out. Sierra had seen the woman around enough to be able to recognize her, gills and all. Oh, and look! She was zooming by on the tail of a fish! Whoa! That looked pretty awesome! Reaching out, Sierra grabbed onto the nearest tail she could reach and zoomed off, as well. She laughed, or tried to, as her fish went faster and faster.
It was nice to be able to be somewhere and not have to worry about homework, classes, or just pre-teen things in general.
Alex saw Hyun swim ahead of him and he also noticed another teammate, the firstie who had just killed it at the practises. He grinned at them both but no wait, that was gross. He shouldn't open his mouth, it came in water. Gross, juust gross.
He saw Lafay grab onto a fish of some kind and figured he would do the same, where was the Giant Squid when you needed him? Hijacking a fish that swam close by he sat on its back.
Yeeha!
Nothing happened.
With a slightly embarrassed expression he floated off the poor squished fish and found a bigger one. This one however did move, and he was on his way after Lafay.
Yeeha!
Heh, now he was all cool again. *Pose with the fishy*
