And to make things worse, he couldn't even ruffle his hair thanks to the cauldron strapped to his head. Absolutely great.
So aside from the fact that they were going to have ROCKS thrown at them, Alec didn't think it was too bad. Just a little scary, that's all. And they could get bruised and scratched and maybe even get a broken nose, as Vindictus just said. Yeah... he did not like this one bit.
His eyes did what it seemed to do a lot these days and landed on a familiar blonde haired girl. He should... go up to her and tell her to stay safe. Really. Yeah. But... the girl smiled at him, which surprised him a little. Was she watching him? ... Eh, he shrugged and smiled back at her. He... could kind of guess what that smile meant. Maybe.
...
And Pao! Dude was pretty small! Alec shot him a smile just as... what. Was that the whistle?!
O__________O
Okay, Summers, time to play this dangerous sport where... these rocks were going to ruin your face or arms or legs or just everything. Alec gulped as the rocks started raining down on them. Right... so catching these rocks... shouldn't be hard, right? He WAS a Seeker, after all. And who cares if he couldn't use his hands? The cauldron would be good enough, right?
... Maybe not.
"ARGH!"
... He should not have been looking up. Shaking his head, the fourteen year old mounted his broom and took off, his face scrunching slightly as more rocks pelted down on him. The Hufflepuff hovered in the air, looking around for a particular rock to chase after. There were loads here! And he had to catch twenty four, right? Yeah.
Spotting a particularly shiny one, Alec zoomed ahead, wincing only when the other rocks decided to bounce off of his shoulders and arms. He was close... he was nearly underneath the rock when...
... huh?
Blinking, the boy stopped flying and looked down at the source of the... yell? Yeah. Pao, it was. ... Was he HURT?! No. This was not good! Alec gave him a thumbs up right as the rock he was chasing after bounced into his cauldron.
... GRIN. And wince.
Just as Pao shot Alec a smile back, he heard a cry from the cool older dude.
Is he okay?!?! Yeah, he was okay. He gave the boy a thumbs up. But he'd definitely learned not to look up to far. That could only spell trouble.
So it looked like he was going to have to just... get lucky? That sounded like it would take a long time.
Maybe if I-- CRASH.
"Ooooooohhhhhh."
He had been flying too low to the ground. Pao's feet had hit a rock on the ground, which sent him flying off his broom and into the ground. "
Great. I lost my rock." Sure enough, it went zooming up into the sky as he watched. He groaned once more as he stood, not wanting to get pelted with any rocks.
