Kissing her daddy goodbye the 11 year old girl skipped over to her assigned group, her blond hair pulled back in pig tails for the day. Her greenbrown eyes took in the faces of the other kids but she recognized nobody. The adults were a different story though since she kept up with Quddicth weekly and knew who they were. Famous people.....Idols.

As the leader (Giles) ordered them all to choose a broom and then mount it Xandra hurried to grab one. With the broom in hand she eyed it up and down before she gripped it with her left hand and swung her leg over it. Just as she was settling down on her broom she felt how she glided backwards off it and landed within seconds uncermionously on the ground causing her to cry out "Oooooooooowie!"

Torie made his way over to his group after waving goodbye to mum and dad. He had his broomstick in his hand, proud to be able to say he had his own. Both he and James had gotten theirs for Hanukkah a few years back and were well trained on how to fly on it. They loved racing each other and even mum on their brooms! He looked up at the course they were to fly around and his eyes shone bright with excitement. He took in each of the quidditch players and beamed at them. Maybe one would notice how good of a flyer he was!

He listened as the leader told them to get a broomstick and smirked a little. He already had his, so he mounted it as he was told and nearly toppled in surprise as he heard an 'owie!' But, they hadn't even kicked off the ground yet! How could someo... He noticed who it was and tried to keep from snickering "Need help Zandra?" he asked moving her way.
