You are doing great as well, Daisy!" she shouted across the field.
Her heart raced with anticipation when Harriet said that Daisy was looking to try her hand at the chaser position. "I'll play keeper for you, Daisy!" Leaning herself forward to get her broom back in motion, Emmalyn zipped across the side of the field and came to a gentle halt by the goals. "Would you like to partner up with me?" She asked Daisy as she eyed Harriet flying off towards the seeker station.
As she watched Harriet fly, she also caught sight of Derf and Bel. "Man, they are fast" she mumbled as she saw how deftly they conquered the obstacle course. She could easily tell they both had experience that their years had afforded them. Even Scarlett was killing the course. Emmalyn suddenly had a strange mixture of determination to beat her housemates and pride in how well they were doing. She knew that no matter who made the team, they would be almost impossible to beat.
Daisy grinned at Em and called out.
"Thank you so much!" Daisy started stretching her arms as Em came flying towards her.
"I'd love to partner up with you,"
she said then she flew to where the Quaffles were and got ready.
"Ready to go?" Daisy called out to Em.
