Harry and Elle walk out to the field "Quidditch is easy enough to understand each team has 7 players 3 chasers, 2 beaters, 1 keeper that's me, and a seeker that would be you... there are three kinds of balls this one is called the quaffle." Elle reaches into a trunk and pulls out a brownish colored ball "the chaser handles the quaffle and try to get it through one of those three hoops." Elle points at some large poles with circles over the top. "The keeper me defends the hoops... you got everything I've said so far?" 

harry handed the quaffle back to Elle. "Yeah I think so? What are those?" harry points at the other two balls in the truck that are making weird noise and trying to get out. 

Elle hands harry a bat. "These are bludgers that nasty things they are... here I'll show you." she put her figure on the clip and released one of the balls. It goes up and comes back down and harry swings the bat. 

Swoosh right over the castle it goes flying, then once it return Elle grabs it and puts it back in the trunk. 

"But you are a seeker the only thing I want you to worry about is this." She holds up a tiny golden ball. 

"ha-ha I like this ball." Harry said looking at it. 

"Just wait it's incredibly fast and damn near impossible to see. All you have to do is catch it before the other teams seeker you catch this and we win." 

"If you don't mind me asking Elle why did you come out here with me? I thought I was to go with Snape and Jane?" Harry questions as she packs the balls away.

"Well harry if you must know I decided to take you on myself and not just because the Jane and Snape couldn't do it." With that Elle turned and walked away dragging the trunk behind her.

Harry walked back to the common room with a big grin on his face. 

"Why are you so happy potter?" Draco had been sitting on the sofa and noticed harry almost as soon as he had come in. 

"I've just made the Quidditch team." harry said looking happily around the room in a search for more people to tell. "Where is Crabbe and Goyle?" harry noticed that Draco was by himself which was odd because the two hardly ever left his side. 

"I was hoping you knew potter... I haven't seen them all day." Draco says kinda pouty. 

Just then Crabbe and Goyle busted in the common room door. "Draco urgent message from the dark lord... oh hi harry... do you mind?" 

"Oh sorry Goyle not at all." Harry went upstairs and lay on his bed just looking up at the ceiling.

Harry didn't understand, everyone said the dark lord had died after his attempt to kill harry when he was only an infant, So why did Crabbe and Goyle always say they had messages from him. The post would certainly be watched for things like messages from the dark lord, so how could they be getting messages from him unless. "He's here in the castle?!" harry said then looked around hoping no one had heard him. The question then was who is the dark lord pretending to be? Or perhaps not pretending but actually just sitting somewhere in the castle, but where?

Harry was almost asleep when Draco entered the room with Crabbe and Goyle. 

Draco pulled out his pajamas. "He won't be long Draco we will surely gain the favor of professor Quirrell." Crabbe said then put his own pajamas on. 

"Do we even need to help him? I mean isn't the dark lord capable of getting the stone himself?" Goyle said pulling on his pajamas. 

"We may have to if he can't find a way past that three headed dog guarding the door." Draco and the other two jumped into their beds and pulled their covers up. "Go to bed now we'll talk to Quirrell about the stone tomorrow."
