Chapter 101: Games and tremors
Harry was hovering over the field, next to their Captain Oliver. He watched as the two bludgers went up in the air. The Weasley twins hurried up to hit them in the enemy team's direction before the Slytherin beaters had the chance to do the same.
The Quaffle was thrown by Professor Hootch in a straight angle and Angelina did not waste time to try and grab it.
But the one Harry was paying the most attention to was the golden snitch. This one flew around the bludgers and continued to go up until it got lost in the clouds.
"Okay, Harry. This is just your first game so try not to get too nervous. All you have to do is hover over the field and if you see a golden glint, you go f-" Oliver was taken aback when he saw Harry propel himself at a tremendous speed towards the clouds.
"Harry wait!. You'll never find the snitch in there!" He tried to warn him.
"Whoa, what is the new seeker doing?" Jordan stared into the distance.
"He is flying into the clouds!, does he really expect to find the snitch in there?"
Many of the students watching started to laugh.
"What is that idiot doing?"
"He is just a second year, what did you expect?"
"Does he actually think he can find that tiny thing in there? They should have taught him better."
"What a stupid thing to do..."
Lyra looked around with a frown.
"Hey, you guys shut up!" She yelled at the ones making fun of her brother.
"Mmm..." James was watching towards the clouds with rasp attention, trying to figure out what Harry's plan was. He did not enjoy hearing the jabs of the other students, but he could understand where they were coming from at least. If this was a normal second-year student, that would have been a very mindless thing to do and it would be treated as a novice mistake.
But they did not know what his son was capable of ...and to be honest, neither did he.
"You think he has a plan?" Lily asked her husband.
"What kind of plan?" Lyra asked.
"Yeah!, well done, Harry!" James cheered.
"Uff..." Lily breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down.
"We won already?" Lyra found it hard to believe. The game had just started.
The rest of the audience was equally baffled.
"We won a game against Slytherin?"
"How did he get the snitch so fast?"
"I can't believe what I just saw..."
"Gryffindors seeker got the snitch!...hold on, what is his name?..." Jordan hurried to go through the roster of the team that he didnt bother looking before.
"Right...Potter, Harry Potter!. The new seeker from Gryffindor had gotten the golden snitch and ended the game 150 to NOTHING for Slythering after...two minutes and thirty-two seconds of the game...Gryffindor WINS!." Jordan screamed.
"We lost already?" Theodore Nott stared at the score.
"How can that be?. We never had a chance to score a single point, how is that fair?" Zabini said.
"Tsk...for one game I came to watch in person. What a disgrace..." Pansy huffed.
"Uff..." Daphne breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down.
"You okay Daph?" Tracey asked.
Pansy turned her head to look at her.
"What wrong Daphne?"
"Nothing..." Daphne was quick to recover her usual calm demeanor.
Pansy smiled.
"Come on Daph...we have known each other for many years...you looked very worried a moment ago."
She looked back at the field where Harry was now flying.
"Could it be?..."
Pansy smile quickly faded from her face and was replaced by panic when the ground started to shake violently and the stands trembled.
She had been standing up when the earthquake started so she lost her balance and fell backwards while screaming for help.
Both Nott and Zabini were busy holding to their own seats to prevent themselves from falling and did not even notice the girl falling over the rails right next to them.
"Pansy!" Daphne jumped from her seat and moved forward to grab her hand before she went over the rails.
But by the time she managed to grab onto Pansy's arm, it was too late and the force of gravity sent them both down to their doom.
