now to finish the chapter


Chapter 3 poor poor Carrie (continued)

'We dont need practice anyway, come on, let's go,' and he and his team flew down and walked off the pitch.
Ginny flew over, though she had been laughing earlier, she suddenly seemed sober.
'Do you think that he meant it when he said he'd get you in the match tomorrow?' Ginny asked a trace of concern etched into her question. Carrie seemed taken aback by this, but quickly hid it.
'Hmmm not sure, and how much could he do? So I get hurt, big whoop. Madam Promfey can fix almost anything.'
'I dont know........' her voice trailed off.
The rest of practice seemed pretty unfocused, and Harry was just plain annoyed at this point.
'THATS IT. practice is over, everybody try your best tomorrow....Unless you want to lose to the Slytherins.'

Carrie overslept the next day and was in a frenzy to put her quidditch robes on. She ran to the pitch with her Nimbus 2000 over her shoulder, when she arrived she was panting. The rest of the team looked at her with raised eyebrows.
'I......over....slept....' Some members nodded, others turned to the captain and Harry continued talking about different strategies.

Once on the field everybody mounted their brooms and began circling the field. The Quaffle was thrown into the air and the rest of the balls were released. Ginny caught the quaffle and, when the Slytherins blocked her route, passed it to Carrie.
Carrie tucked it under her arm and flew towards the Slytherins hoops, one of their chasers banged into her side. She passed it to Emma Jonassen (a 4th year) who sped to the hoops with a clear path and managed to get it in a hoop without the Keeper even having enough time to block it.
The Slytherins now got a hold of it and flew to the Gryffindor's hoops. They passed it back and forth-as much as Carrie would not like to admit it they were good. Determined, she flew towards the Slytherin Chaser holding the Quaffle. She fumbled for a moment then she dropped it, Carrie dived, caught it and threw it to Ginny.
Outraged one of the beaters threw his club at her, but Ginny was too quick and dodged it in a split second.
'FOUL. Penalty shot to Gryffindor.'
The game was brutal after that. Goyle slammed a bludger at her when she stole the Quaffle from Slytherin again, she dodged it that time. But right after that Malfoy took the beater's club from Crabbe and hit her right between the shoulders. She blacked out, and fell.....
