Harry, Hermione, Ron and Elizabeth sit in the hall and stare at Harry who was very nervous for his first Quidditch match.

"Take a bit of toast, mate, go on," Ron says putting a piece of toast on his plate.

"Ron's right, Harry. You're gonna need your strength today," Hermione points out.

"I'm not hungry," Snape walks up to then and Stands behind Elizabeth and looks at Harry.

"Good luck today, Potter. Then again, now that you've proven yourself against a troll, a little game of Quidditch should be easy work for you...even if it is against Slytherin," he leaves limping.

"That explains the blood," Harry says staring at Snape.

"Blood?" Hermione questions.

" I'm guessing Snape let the troll in as a diversion so he could try and get past that 3-headed-dog. But, he got himself bitten, that's why he's limping," Harry tries to explain.

"But why would anyone go near that dog?" Ron questions.

"But how could he have let the troll out and then try and get past the 3-headed-dog if he was sitting at the table!" Elizabeth says loudly but not loud enough for anyone else to hear.

"The day I was at Gringotts, Hagrid took something out of one of the vaults. He said it was Hogwarts' business, very secret," Harry explains ignoring Elizabeth.

"So you're saying..." Hermione starts.

"That's what the dog's guarding. That's what Snape wants," Harry replies. Elizabeth rolls her eyes. An owl screeches. Its Hedwig. In her beak was a large and very long parcel. She drops it.

"Bit early for mail, isn't it?" Hermione asks

"But I-I never get mail," Harry stutters. Shocked. Another owl comes in and dops Elizabeth a letter. She opens it, ignoring everyone else.

Elizabeth,

Hope you are having a fantastic time! We hope you haven't forgotten us, tell us all about your first month at Hogwarts!

Love,

Aunt Mary and Uncle Dave

Elizabeth gets some parchment and quickly writes

Uncle Dave and Aunt Mary,

Of course, I haven't forgotten about you! I could never.

I was sorted into Gryffindor and September was a nice quiet month then October comes around and a troll is let loose in the Dungeons! Me, Harry (yes my brother) Ron and Hermione, my two other friends got caught up and we fought it. I managed to knock it out but then I fainted and ended up in the hospital wing. I'm okay! Hope to see you soon!

Love,

Elizabeth x

She folds the letter and puts it in her pocket.

"Scared, Harry?" Oliver asks Harry.

"A little bit," he responds.

"That's all right. I felt the same way before my first game."

"What happened?" Harry asks curiously.

"Er, I don't really remember. I took a bludger to the head 2 minutes in. Woke up in the hospital a week later."

Immediately regretting in asking he gulps and stares at the door. The door opens. They mount their brooms and zoom out onto the enormous pitch. There is cheering. The commentator, Lee Jordon, is talking from a tower.

"Hello, and welcome to Hogwarts' first Quidditch game of the season! Today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!!!" He speaks. Gryffindor cheer loudly, the players take their positions in the air in a circle. Harry weaves in, highest amongst. He looks down. "The players take their positions as Madam Hooch steps out onto the field to begin the game," says Lee.

"Now, I want a nice clean game...from all of you," Madam Hooch says eying the Slytherin's specifically. She kicks a box and the bludgers fly out.

"The bludgers are up...followed by the Golden Snitch. Remember, the snitch is worth 150 points. The seeker who catches the Snitch ends the game," The snitch zooms around each Seeker's head, then disappears. Hooch grabs the Quaffle.

"The Quaffle is released...and the game begins!" Lee beamed. Gryffindor takes possession of the ball and a chaser, Angelina Johnson, zooms past Slytherins towards their goal, and throws the ball, and scores! There is a ding. Lee presses a button which causes Gryffindor to go up by 10 points. "Angelina Johnson scores! 10 points for Gryffindor," the Gryffindor's cheer loudly.

"Slytherin takes possession of the Quaffle. Bletchley passes to Captain Marcus Flint" Lee announces. The Quaffle flys towards the rings by Oliver wacks it away with the end of his broom. He smirks at Flint. Flint growls. Johnson and Katie Bell pass the Quaffle back and forth as they strategize to score. Johnson takes it, throws, and once again scores! Ron and Seamus scream. "Another 10 points to Gryffindor!" The syltherins then decide to get messy. The dodge and kick but Oliver blocks.

"Give me that!" He grabs a beater's bat from one and whacks a bludger right at Oliver. It hits Oliver in the stomach and he falls to the ground. Harry is visibly upset while the Slytherins laugh. The Slytherin then score and cheer. "You {he points to his teammate} take that side," they box Johnson in and sent her into the capes covering one of the towers. She falls down in and is out. The crowd boos. Slytherin scores once again. Suddenly, Harry sees the Snitch. He starts to head off after it and then his broom starts bucking and turning.

"Whoa, what's going on with harry's broom?" Hargrid who was standing in the crowds asks. Hermione looks through a pair of binoculars. "It's Professor Snape! He's jinxing the broom!" Hermione says to Ron and Elizabeth. "I've got an idea!" Hermione gets out her wand and disappears through the crowd. Elizabeth takes the binoculars off of Ron and looks for Professor Quirrell. He too was muttering and not breaking eye contact.

Harry broom suddenly stops and he mounts it. He zooms after the snitch. Harry rams the Slytherin Seeker, then is butted out. He returns, smashing the Seeker again as the Snitch dives. The boys follow, but they approach the ground quickly. The Slytherin Seeker backs out, and Harry pulls up his broom as he follows the Snitch, feet above the ground. Harry stands up, and steps forward, trying to grab the ball. He goes too far, and topples off the broom with a yelp, tumbling on the ground. He gets up and lurches.

"Looks like he's gonna be sick!" Hagrid says. Harry lurches and the Snitch pops out of his mouth. It lands in his hands

"He's got the Snitch! Harry Potter receives 150 points for catching the Snitch!" Hooch blows the whistle. "Gryffindor wins!" The house cheers loudly.
