"Nice to meet you Kellen" Brant said as he started to run towards his target. "She already had partnered up when I started looking for her, I don't want to bother her too much, now do I" he said while winking. Brant put the ball down and he lined up and got ready to kick it. With all of his might he kicked the soccer ball really fast and it knocked the target over. Brant was really please with himself and shouted over to the Professor " I knocked this one down Sir, and it was my first time. This game is Excellent! thanks for introducing it to us." as he continued to shoot the same ball at the target. "Man, Sab this is awesome, its sad that I haven't played this game before. Maybe on the weekend we could ask the professor for one of these balls and play a game.?"

And the ball goes towards Allison! Will she get it will she be able to dribble it like their professor was asking?! Player Arya looks with attention! The anxiety reaches the stands! And there's Allison! NOO! She misses the ball! She looks scared! She looks surprised! What will happen?! She runs! She runs towards the ball! She reaches the ball, she trips along the way, and she turns and she kicks it back!

Allison made it towards the ball and after tripping managed to kick it to Arya. At this point joy spread all across her face. Never had she been able to use a sport's ball correctly. However, because she already had so much adrenaline in her, Allison kicked in non-too gently.

"Likewise," Kellen nodded to Brant. He let the two talk about a girl, setting up his ball and taking a kick. It was going right for the target, there was no way it could miss, and then... it swerved off to the side?

Kellen sent an irritated glance at Sabel, sure the boy had his wand out and was playing around, but no. His face went from irritated to confused and he nudged Sabel, "My ball just went like..." he demonstrated with a hand, "...this. Why'd it do that?"

Marcus chuckled at Dani as he caught the ball and made sure that she was looking and put the ball onto the ground and demonstrated kicking it with his foot. At her question he shrugged his shoulders, "Change of scenery I guess."

Looking at the Huffie, Lawson gave her a smile and nodded his head, "Yes you may just keep practicing dribbling and passing the ball."

"Obviously" Marcus drawled as he stood looking down at the boy and he folded his arms across his chest. "Just because a person is good at one sport does not mean they are good at all sports." Man that was the worst excuse Lawson had ever heard and the kid was not at all sorry about what he had done either. "In the future you may want to give the person a little more notice before you kick a ball at their head. Consider yourself on detention Joshua."

Chuckling, Sabel shook his head and was about to kick his ball towards the target, his leg pulled back for the strike and all, when he caught Kellen's rather dissaproving glance. Blinking he looked over just in time to be nudged. Not the most desired method of getting his attention, but rather effective was his conclusion as the awkward stance and sudden pressure sent his foot down in a heavy swing and continued on and upward until it had dropped him on his back. He heard the ball hit one of the targets off to the far right.

Letting out a heavy ghust of air, his eyes flicked from the boy, to the ball and then to the boy in regards to Kellen's words. "Well that's strange." Scampering to his feet he dusted himself off, taking a brief glance around to see if he could find his ball. Waaay of to the far right. Okay. Fun. He'd have to go over and get it, but first..."Let's see what you did."

Ehh, Destiny still wasn't getting any information out of her. Bushes, here she comes! Maybe not, there were probably bugs in them bushes, and bugs are gross! They couldn't keep this up forever, it would slip sooner or later.

She didn't want to try the targets, she just wanted to pretend to be doing something. But since she was over here she might as well give it a go. Destiny walked to where Evelyn's ball landed and picked it up. Her's was close to the target, and Destiny was sure she could hit it.

She placed the ball on the ground in front of her and backed up a few steps. She needed her space for this. She ran up to the ball, like a professional soccer player, closed her eyes and kicked. She heard the target get hit, but when she opened her eyes she saw that the ball was still right in front of her. She missed the ball completely, and the thing that hit the target was her shoe. 'I give up.' She sat back down on the grass, not even bothering to get her shoe.

Kicking at Targets was a fun thing Ty headed to the back Hey who wants to go with me? Look at the group over his shoulder Come on Rex, Damon it will be fun. How about you girls, Kay just kick it like you did in the circle

Arya heard Lawson mention targets but not wanting to leave Allison she ignored him. Though not before hearing him send Jake off to the nurse and take 5 points from Griffindor. She didn't know what to expect from Allison, seeing as the last time the girl seemed terriffied of the ball. She watched as Allison ran towards the ball and triped. Before Arya could even make a motion to help her up, Allison was back on her feet and gave Arya new hope for her friend. Maybe teaching her won't be that hard.Once Allison kicked the ball Arya jumped for joy(literally),and threw her hands in the air. "Great Allie you did it!" But she was so excited that she forgot about the ball that was coming at her in an alarming rate. She had no time to react with the ball hite her in the stomach. She bent over and wraped one hand around her stomach. It wasn't like she hadn't been it by a soccer ball before, it just really hurt. Rubbing her stomach she took a few deep breaths before straighting up. "Ready *cough* for another one?"

Brant wasn't paying attention. "Dudes, whats wrong with your balls?, Mine was totally fine?" while helping up Sabel up. "Maybe we should go to our Prefect over there" he nodded towards Chris. "and tell him about these werid soccer balls"

Emily skipped back over to Arya, Allison and their group. "Hey guys, professor Lawson said we could have a group of five."

Kay looked at Ty 'was he nuts' she thought. "I don't know guys. What if I hit someone?" Kay said as she followed them to the back of the room. "Ok, You and Rex go first."

"AHHHHHHHH!" Allison shrieked. "NUuUUuUUUuuUuUu! ARYA! OH NOES!" Allison ran towards Arya who was now straightening up. She knew she was a trouble in any sport, but she didn't mean to hit Arya. Had she hit the evil one with Sabel it would have been alright, but not Arya!

"I'm so so so so so so so so so sooooo very sorry!" How in the heck would they move on to targets when she had just injured her friend?! "You okay? No bruises right? You can breath? Right? No biggie! Right?" Grabbing Arya by the face Allison practically screamed at her, "You are growing pale! TALK TO ME!"

Brant knew that he needed to tell Chris, so he walked over to the gryffindor prefect and said "Yo, dude my friends soccer ball is acting crazy, I was wondering if you could help us out with it?" while he laughed. for Brant and Chris were good friends.

See smiled at her friends concern, hoping that she was just overreacting about the pale bit. "I'm fine Allie *lil cough* don't worry I've been hit with a ball before. We can still practice *lil cough* its just gonna take a minute for the sting to go away."She spoke unnaturally calm voice as to not worry Allison more than she already was.She pointed with her free hand to the spot were Allison was previously standing. "Go back so we can finish."

Still rubing away the sting of the soccer ball Arya looked up to Emily who had just came back from Lawson. "Great Em,*smaller cough* I'm just helpin Allie learn to kick."She kicked the ball to Emily and nodded her head in Allison's direction. "Don't kick it to hard to her, she's still learning.*tiny cough*"

Chris heard his name called by a familiar voice. He turned around and saw te Gryffindor Quidditch captain and his friend Brant. "Hey Brant what's up?" he said and then he listened as he told him of his friend's soccer ball problem. "Um well is he kicking it head on in the center? If not it may curve."

"Yeah, it was totally going center and then out of the blue, BAM!!!, it curved?, werid eh?" while waving his hands around telling Chris about these Soccer Balls.

Gah!! Noo! All right he did not think that this excuse had a good potential to save him completely, but at least it might have made Lawson think that the Gryffindor boy lacked a little bit of brains, jumping in conclusions with such straight and idiotic judgments on a person being good at a sport meant he could be good at any because they were all sports. He did not expect it to backfire like that anyway no matter how stupid it was. Now he was on detention *GROAN!* Just great. ''All right professor'' he said watching the other students trying to shoot at targets. ''I'll make sure of that''

Kellen looked down at Sabel in amusement and grinned, "What are you doing down there, Dakest?"

He retrieved his ball while Brant helped Sabel up, and made sure Sabel was paying attention, "All right, so I lined up like this, and then..." He kicked the ball in what he thought was the same manner as before, but this time it went straight. "Okay, no, it didn't do that last... here, let me try again."

Kellen Stern didn't like variables. A + B = C, that's why he was in Ravenclaw, wasn't it? He got the ball again and set it down, "OKAY, so I lined it up..." He kicked the ball, and this time it went straight before curving to the left and bouncing away behind the targets, "...and it did that! Why is it doing that?"

He shrugged at Brant, "Maybe these are enchanted footballs? I don't know, I've never played this before."

"Ok," Emily stopped the ball and kicked it, softly, to Allison."Is than okay?"

Sure Kay you don't have to kick it hard just like you were kicking to us just aim at the target. It will be fun. Rex you talk her into it. Ty walk up and kick the ball straight at the target it wasn't that hard no one was blocking the way. Ty was athletic and learn most physical moves very easily. Watching his shot go in.Whoo hoo come on Kay give it a shot.

Chris laughed as Brant got into his explanation of the ball curving. "Well Brant the soccer ball will eventually curve and also fall to the ground becaue it isn't charmed like a Quaffle." he chuckled again. "Brant you are so funny, had you ever heard of soccer before today?"

Dalanie walked to the back of the field. As she had said to Mina, she had played soccer before. This would be easy. She sat the ball down and aimed. She took note of how hard she should kick the ball and kicked. She hit it perfect.

Dalanie walked over to retrieve her ball. For some strange reason she wanted to get hurt. She knew that wouldn't happen and that wish would be over by the end of class. She took her ball and went back to her "launching pad". If she did get hurt, she would do whatever she could to get the other person out of trouble. She launched again. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched. Retrieved. Launched, and then she stopped dead in her tracks. She saw Benjamin Farley again. She didn't realize she could be hit if she didn't move. She was right in front the target.

Deep breath. Deep breath. Deep breath.

Would a soccer ball come flying at her? Who cared! She would remember everything once she got hit or someone started talking to her.

"Hahahahah, No I haven't and I don't think my partners have either, we are just making sure Chris, This seems so different to me. Deffently not like Quidditch." he said shaking his head.

Evelyn watched as Destiny went over to get the ball and came back, placing it on the ground. It would be funny if she actually hit the target, because right now, it totally was Lawsguini's face at the moment. Now they could get all their anger out and not get detention! Or expelled. Glancing over to where the Professor and Josh were, she noticed that Josh did not look happy. What did Lawsguini do!!?? Frowning, she looked back over to Destiny when she noticed the Slytherin moving back out of the corner of her eye. Smiling, she watched the target intently, waiting for the ball to strike it. And that was definitely not a ball.

Quickly covering her mouth when she saw Destiny without a shoe on, she turned away, trying to laugh as quietly as possible. It was kinda obvious though she was laughing since her shoulder were shaking so much, but it didn't last long. She composed herself rather quickly and turned back towards her friend, tears in her eyes. "At least you hit the target."

"Oh Brant its ok. Alot of people in here I am sure are not really used to the idea of soccer." he clapped his friend on the back as he kicked the ball to Torin.
