The green marble raced towards the goal and was the first to touch the Jack Stone, causing Mr Kitridge to start applauding a little too enthusiastically-- not because Slytherin had gotten the last points of the match, but because it was finally over and they would all go back to their headquarters to eat some well deserved food.
