Another Snitch grab for Gryffindor? "NOO!" Kiri yelled. All around her, Slytherins were booing and whistling and groaning. Their Seeker had been so close!

If she had known the match was going to be this exciting, that she was going to be so into it, she'd have brought some water or something with her to drink.

Only one more, and Gryffindor would be the winners. Her stomach fluttered nervously as she watched the players whiz around the pitch, fast as lightning. She was very proud of Raiden, though. So far, he'd made no mistakes, and his Bludger hits had been spot on. She remembered the autograph of Emma Greene, tucked away safely in her notebook in the common room. (Oh, the common room...
