The leaping things were everywhere – It should have been as easy as a rat chase. But there were people everywhere, too. Oh well, there was hardly a difference between the leaping things and, er, people. Matilda made no attempt to avoid crashing nets with others (and swinging them into other people’s faces). She shot at the chocolate frogs, right, left, and center until she managed to get a hold of one with a swift pivot of her feet. And then… and then… CRASH. She couldn’t stop the net from connecting with someone else’s', and the chocolate frog leaped out with a triumphed chocolaty croak.

“Blast!” Matilda huffed, picking up the fallen net to try again.
