She just managed to land - she was already close to the ground anyway, she realized - when he suddenly hugged her. Best...what? "I'm not the best Seeker in the school though," she said with a shake of her head. "Ellie is." And she was sure Max would agree with that. Speaking of which, they definitely needed to go see her as soon as they got out of here. "But thanks." She did appreciate that he thought Ellie would be proud of her. And that he was. "You were brilliant too, as always."
Then Spike came over. Merlin, it was nice having him on the pitch again. The banner? "Oh yes, what a shame," she replied with a small laugh and smile. She also smiled at Indy as she said they had done well, though was caught off-guard when Lana suddenly threw herself at them. She recovered quickly though and returned the hug. "You were awesome too," Vashti told her. "You all were," she directed that at the whole team - even over to the Gryffindors because they too had played well.
...Only someone wasn't taking it well and was yelling...at them?
Turning away from her teammates, Vashti faced Selina. "Look," she said. "None of us hurt your Seeker. My guess would be that she hit one of the wooden beams when the snitch went under." That kind of happened sometimes during Quidditch, and it really couldn't be helped - unless the Seeker didn't care about their team winning of course. Then, you know, they didn't have to go under the stands and risk getting hit. "Blame me if you want to, but stop yelling at the rest of them. They didn't do anything." They just played the game as they were supposed to and celebrated their win appropriately as they had the right to do.
"I'm sorry about Anya getting hurt," she said sincerely. If she could have chosen, she would have let herself get hurt instead of a little first year, but, well, there wasn't much she could do. "But I doubt you'd care much about me if I was the one who hit a beam and you all had won." Because, again, injuries and things were all a part of Quidditch. "Besides, if you didn't want to risk her getting hurt - which tends to happen in Quidditch - why did you let her play?"
And then...
Oh Merlin, really?
Someone please tell her Travis had not just thrown up on the Gryffindor Captain... Lana smiled brightly at the Head Girl and nodded. She was so terrified that she would make a mistake this morning but they had a reason to play as hard as they could and they had every reason to be happy for the win. Reaching down she pulled the note from its hiding place and kissed it before tucking it back away. It was good luck and she would so carry it ALWAYS! "You were just so....WOW! You did good and you are like the bestest in my eyes." Yes, it was decided! Lana wanted to be like Vashti day! SPOILER!!: SPIKEY-POO Quote:

"I missed matches and practice and forgot myself." Oops. "I have to say though, this broom is amazing. No wonder Finn has one!"
Hehe. "Here's to more of the same, right? More playing together, and more winning!" He grinned. Maybe with both of them doing well, their parents would let them convert part of the garden for practice?
"Er, I don't know actually..." he said, turning to look at the Gryffie Captain. "I guess she's not happy at missing out on the Championship?" Understandable, really. Losing wasn't a nice feeling, especially when the Championship was at stake. But Seekers usually took some sort of injury. Just cos it was a firstie, didn't really matter.
Talking of firsties, one just tackled him! His grinned as he looked down to see a Lana. It was reminiscent of him and Finn and Jimmy during his first matches. "Watcha Lana!" he said, wrapping his other arm round her. "Awesome Chasing up there!" Considering they'd had so little practice together, he reckoned they did a pretty awesome job at late notice. "Couple of stunning goals..."
He'd have hugged Vashti, but Spike's arm were currently occupied by icklies. Instead he gave her a wave and a knowing look at Indy and Lana. "I mean, you could have at least wrecked the Slythie one..." he said with a smirk. "The Huffie one would have been better...then there's be more blue for the Championship match. Though, maybe we could take the ripped Ravvie one as a souvenir? Like for the Celebration Party tablecloth or something?" Hehe. "You were still awesome though."
He rolled his eyes at the Captain. Honestly, this was quidditch. Injuries happened. Even to first years. Spike should know. He got knocked about enough in his first year, and ended up almost blinded after his first Championship match. There was a simple solution...Hospital Wing and sleep.
Kudos to Trav for his efforts to calm the situation though. And then... Merlin, did Trav?
Spike wrinkled his nose. Ewwwww. He edged away, and as his did so, noticed his two hug!buddies were joining in. Especially his little sis. Whoa girly! Since when did she shout back like that? Except to him? Indy was right of course, they had a Captain to worry about.
"Lana's right," he said softly. "Let Prof V sort out the Gryffs, we need to let Ellie know the good news." If Ellie would let them get them far...somehow he didn't think she'd appreciate them telling her they'd played without her. Even if it was for her own good. Relinquishing her hold on the Head Girl already, she moved to Spike and smiled brightly as she finally let him go as well. "Thank you. I was so nervous and worried before, but you all made me feel better and Ellie was there with us the whole time!" Her voice was always in her head anyway telling her to keep pushing harder for the sake of the team. They were a family and they fought like a family.
Catching sight of what just happened with Trav, she made a face and shook her head. She had said her piece with the meanie head captain and seriously she didn't have to defend herself to someone that couldn't clearly see that yelling was going to help the situation at all. She did really hope that all Lions weren't as hotheaded like that. The only other one she had met and talked to was rather nice and she did really hope that most of them were that nice and sensible.
Looking back up at Spike, she nodded. "We need to tell Ellie! I just hope that she is awake now." It was a miracle that they had managed to drag a majority of their team from their captain's bedside as is. Vindictus could handle whatever was needed there, they were needed up in the hospital wing.

Maybe they shouldn't try to move it then if the girl was fearful of it hurting to much. Merlin knew for certain...the injured party always knew better then the non-insured party what it felt like to them. Even without moving it.
And then Selina went off again, yelling and clearly showing her displeasure to the Ravenclaws. He just hoped she didn't get herself into serious trouble, especially with Vindictus around and being official AND the head of house of the team she was blasting. And that Anya didn't take it as even more of a worse thought on her actual condition. Bentley would have to be able to help one....guess he'd have to silently hope for the other.
Then Kacie joined in, agreeing with their captain and Gideon shot her a look. He might have reprimanded her and but his protectiveness kicked in when he saw that she wasn't alright either. "GUYS....cut it out!," he yelled to get their attention. "Its not worth it..." He wasn't about to be concerned with the other team and want a fight to brew esepcially when the two youngest were hurt. "Selina...help Kacie..." he said softer trying to distract his upset girlfriend with a task, AND help his sister in some way as well.
Hearing the girl go on, it appeared Selina didn't have to effect her, she was already upset about it and Gideon turned his attention back to her. "Nae...that wouldn't do. How about I get ye to the hospital wing and get ye all fixed up?" He'd carry her if need be but he wasn't going to force her, especially when she seemed so shooken up. "I can even carry ye if ye want." Quote:

Oh Captain. She didn't need to yell at the other team. They were probably too happy to notice her. And... Anya didn't mind. She was just a little kid. And as long as she got sent LOTS of gummy bears all would be forgiven.
She slowly got to a sitting up position. She closed her eyes as she got accustomed to her new position. She opened them just in time to see Selina get puked on...
O_O
That was WAY more important than her. Gideon should be taking care of that. Or... Kacie. Oh. Did his sister get an ouchie too?
Anya was just as bad... she didn't notice anyone was hurt. Other than the banner. Poor thing. May it rest in peace.
"I'm fine Selina..." she said weakly. Well... mostly fine anyway. She still hadn't really taken inventory.
"No! No! No! NO!" she said to the Head Girl. "Pleeeeeeease don't say that. Or write to my parents. They wouldn't let me play again." she begged.
She'd do a little dance to prove she was fine if she needed to.
Her eyes were once again watering. But this time it wasn't over the broken banner... or how sore she was... it was because of the scene unfolding in front of her little eyes.
"I... I can make it on my own..." she said. And by her own... she meant she fully expected Alec waiting for her by the locker room. "You should clean off Captain. And make sure your sister gets back." she said with her voice slowly returning to normal.
Then she looked to the Head Girl. She held her hand out toward her. "Good match." she said with a small smile. The older birdie would have to come to her to shake it. Anya didn't picture herself getting up any time soon.
She then looked to the other members of their team. The ones around her age. "Your Captain is in the Hospital Wing?" she asked them. "Does she need any gummy bears?" Because that's what people in the hospital wing needed. Gummy bears and hugs.
Trying to avoid all the meanie head lions, Lana glanced over at the chaser and seeker that were not yelling at them. "You guys played well today, just so you know." she voiced. "I just hope that one day, I can play as well as some of your older players too." She had seen them practice from time to time and they were a good team.
Hearing the tiny voice of the seeker, she nodded and offered a tiny smile. "I'm sorry that you got hurt and I hope you get better. You are like a little red birdie up there when you play. I couldn't do that." She was so not seeker material at all, but this lion was and she did respect that.
Hearing the question about Ellie, she nodded again. "She wouldn't wake up and we are going to see her now and give her hugs." Well that was if she was awake and not mad at them for playing without her and all. "I think she would love gummy bears and maybe some gummy hearts too." Maybe she had some laying around still. "I'll tell her you sent her some if you want."
Glancing back at her team, she bit her lip and looked back at the seeker and the banner. "Don't worry about the banner. I'm sure it will be as good as new by nightfall," she offered with a tiny smile before she turned to run off with her team mates. |
