Isabelle groaned as someone stopped her music. "Creo Musica," she cried again thinking of the same lullaby again and the music resumed playing. Hopefully it would also get the Gryffindor prefect. She continued to tug at the blue flag trying to get it in her grasp.

"Engorgio!" Eino shouted pointing his wand at the rock, and causing it to triple in size. This would surely give someone else the opportunity to capture the Gryffindor prefect without too much trouble.

There is that music again! grr. Taylor spotted the girl, that seemed to have started the music, she pointed at the girl and said, "Confundus!" Taylor went over to the girl and reached out to tap her, trying to block out the music. She waited a few moments and muttered, thinking about the music, praying it will work, "Finite!"

TAylor sense another person around her and saw out of the corner of her eye that it was a teammate! She was glad.

"Protego," Isabelle yelled as the girl drew her wand again. Luckily she stopped the spell otherwise she wouldn't have remembered what she was doing. Grr...why was the girl so persistant about stopping the music. Sighing Izzy whispered, "Creo Musica," again thinking of the same song. This time she was determined as she continued to pull hard on the flag trying to get it out of the hands of the Gryffindor. "Reducio," she screamed as the rock got larger.

"immobulus" Taylor reached out and tapped the girl. Thinking of the music, "Finite" She pointed to the rock with her wand and said, "Engorgio!" TAylor was starting to get bored of the music spell the girl was using.

Kurumi head the Ravenclaw throw yet another spell in her direction and she ducked down low to dodge this spell as well. Lying flat on the ground, Kurumi momentarily lost focus on her Hover Charm, and the rock began to waver in the air. Kurumi flicked her wand at the rock again.
But, there were just some spells that you couldn't dodge. Kurumi had to put both hands on her wand now due to the weight of the rock and she let out a low grunt as she attempted to not allow it to come crashing down.

She needed to do something quick or else someone would TOUCH her and she would be in prison. All part of the game and no doubt one of her housemates would come along shortly to save her if that did happen.

Yes! The girl was too busy with the rock to dodge now... Hopefully. Eino sprinted towards her and pressed his palm against her back. "Tag, you're it. Now catch me!" He said and ran the opposite direction. Half away across the courtyard he realized he was plying the wrong game so he returned to where the girl was standing.

Taylor smiled at her teamate. "Nice work."

Isabelle tried to doge the girl but she was immobilized. Sighing she cried, "Go for it Kurumi, if I can't get it, you can!" Then she turned to her captor. "I guess you got me, so take me to your jail. And do you have any chocolate?" she asked the girl. All the talk of the chocolate before she left the Slytherin territory had made her hungry for chocolate.

"Nope i dont." Taylor looked away from the girl to see if any more people were coming.

The blue flag remains with the Ravenclaw team.

Kurumi was beginning to wonder what was taking Ravenclaws so long to touch her. It seemed the more obvious thing to do considering how distracted she was at the moment with the rock. Maybe if she just twisted a little to the right she could...

But then she felt hands on her back and she let her arms collapse to her sides, the rock crashing down with them. Kurumi herself felt like collapsing on to the ground.

Laughing, she made her way over to the cell a bit confused as to why Eino seemed to not recognize her at all...and thought they were playing a different game all together.

"Hey Isabelle," Kurumi laughed as the Slytherin joined her in jail. "I don't have chocolate, but I do have some small chocolate chip cookies." She reached into her robe pocket and offered the girl one. "You know, as an energy boost of sorts from all the running around."

Jezzabelle had been silent as she possibly could. Even she couldn't hear her own breathing. She hid behind a pillar and peered around the corner. She had been right. Kurumi was caught and in jail. Sure she had left her own teams flag to be taken but she was pretty sure they could handle it on their own. After all she was just a little first year.

When she thought no one was looking she ran to Kurumi as fast as she could hoping she could get there before someone got her because if they were both caught that wouldn't do so well. So close. Almost there.

Just when one Gryffindor had been caught, A WILD GRYFFINDOR APPEARED. Eino swiftly swung his arm up and pointed at the Gryffindor's chest. She was running which made it hard, but squinted his eyes, focused on her torso and recited a familiar charm. "Depulso." Hopefully that would send the girl away from Kurumi, and give some other Ravenclaw the opportunity to tag her, too!

Jezzabelle ducked as she heard a Ravenclaw shot something and sent a flash of light heading her way. It had missed her by an inch and she was reaching out to her friend. "Grab my hand!"

"Jezz!" Kurumi called, waving to the first year from here temporary jail. She squeaked as Eino threw another spell, this time in her favorite first year lion. Either her words had caught the lioness' attention or the little girl was more nimble that she let on. Kurumi clapped loudly as Jezz rolled and avoided the spell. Brilliant!

When Jezz reached out, Kurumi smiled as she watched the girl's small and reached out for it, grabbing it with her own. She was free!

"Great job Jezz!" she applauded. "Now let's get out of here!"

Still holding on to the girl's hand, Kurumi ran through the courtyard towards the lake.

Jezz smiled, "Agreed lets go." She ran off away from the courtyard flag less. All she had wanted was her friend.

The entire time Arya hid behind a bush that sat just on the perimeter of the courtyard, she'd been watching and planning. Clearly it wouldn't be easy to capture the flag alone, but they seemed to be busy with Gryffindors trying to attack them or be freed.

Maybe... If she was fast enough...

She was fast enough.

Moving from behind the bush, she hoped over one of the columns into the courtyard, and broke into a sprint for the flag.

This time there was a flash of yellow and black zoom right past him and towards the flag. Eino turned around as fast as one Eino could and sprinted after, what seemed to be, the Hufflepuff Prefect. She was running, yes? And what is the best to stop someone? Make. THEM. FAAAALL! "Glisseo!" Eino said pointing towards the ground, hoping the prefect didn't have good balance. This however, this not stop him from chasing after her.

TAylor turned and saw a huffie when one of her teammates shouted out a charm, and using the charm she used before she pointed her wand at the huffie, "Immobulus!"

Eino saw a flash of light coming from the opposite direction, flying towards the Hufflepuff girl. "Splendid!" Eino exclaimed and nodded. The courtyard seemed clear for now, which gave Eino the opportunity to look around. "I'm going to wander, please stay here adn guard the flag." He requested. Someone had to stay there and the Ravenclaw girl was doing so well Eino didn't think he needed to be there, too. Plus, they had to get more flags, right? With that, Eino nodded and left the girl to guard the flag.

Arya heard the spell being cast, and with a wide grin spreading across her face she took one final step-push, and sliiiide onto the now slippery cobblestone toward the flag, positive that she would probably get a small bruise for not casting a cushioning charm and not caring the least bit.

Not what the younger boy, whoever he was (she didn't turn to look), had in mind when he'd cast, was it? Hehe.

She was extending the boy's charm out to the flag when she heard another spell being cast at her. "Protego!" No looks over at this one either! She had a flag to capture, and hopefully stop her sliding. She had not time to cast for stopping, see?

When Arya sliiiid over to the flag, she made a mighty reach for it.

Reeeeeach!

"Thanks." Taylor smiled careful not to look at the person so that she can look out for any others, "Will do."
Taylor went after the hufflepuff. Still pointing her wand at the girl as she ran over to the rock, " Impedimenta"

The Hufflepuff got the blue flag... but its still caught under a rock. Can she free it in time?

Taylor saw that the hufflepuff got the blue flag Crap! I'm so going to be dead! Trying to think fast Taylor pointed her wand at the Hufflepuff, "Rictusempra" Taylor ran over to the rock and used the gripping charm on her hand. She tried to grip the flag hoping to pull it from the hufflepuff's hands.
