If only she was this invested in her normal lessons, maybe she would've done better in her OWLs. Alas, she did not care about those.

Anyway, Hanna finally made the pass and Anna skilfully caught the falling ball, wrapping her arm around it and leaning in to pick up some speed again. Which turned out to be the right move as she spotted the third dummy right by her!

Merlin! That was close. The fact dummy nearly took the Quaffle from her made her heart skip a beat, but the new rush of adrenaline kicked in exactly because of that, which was helpful. Anna was off, zooming forward and doing an upward loop moving around and above Hanna and the two dummies, hoping to get rid of the dummy that was so close to her.

She slowed down a little, stabilising her broom to have a look around. Anyone free she could pass the Quaffle to? She was kind of ready to move on to the goal hoops, really. However, she didn't want to simply give the ball to those dummies, no way! The Gryffindor wanted to make sure another player got it before she changed stations.

Anyone? Would Hanna be able to get rid of those two dummies? Anna needed to be quick before those dummies came after her again.
Avalon's eyes widened as the Quaffle flew through the hoop. She had done it! She could go to sleep happy now that she made at least one goal at tryouts - regardless of whether or not she made the team. But Avalon didn't have time to celebrate - she spotted a Gryffindor flying on the other side of the pitch, seemingly in need of someone to pass the ball to. And with two dummies racing toward the girl, Avalon figured she should help her out. She leaned forward on her broom and accelerated, figuring that she should head back to the passing section of the pitch anyway. "You can pass it here! I'm open!" Avalon called, looking on either side of her for any dummies. She knew it wouldn't be long before another one was on her tail.
