     "LET'S WELCOME THE GRYFFINDOR TEAM WITH CAPTAIN ANGELINA JOHNSON!", LEE JORDAN ANNOUNCED. the gryffindors cheered while the slytherins chanted a song that was created by draco.

     "WEASLEY CANNOT SAVE A THING,
HE CANNOT BLOCK A SINGLE THING!
THAT'S WHY SLYTHERINS ALL SING,
WEASLEY IS OUR KING!!"

     the gryffindors simply rolled their eyes or scoffed meanwhile ron started shaking as he entered the field.

     "it's going to be okay ron. you're going to do great!", harry encouraged, making the boy sarcastically laugh.

     "harry, I'm going to die", ron exaggerated.

     "ron, you can't die from quidditch", harry confirmed.

the gryffindor team then lined up, with angelina at the front of course, while lee jordan announced the presence of the slytherin team.

"now let's welcome the slytherin team", lee said with sarcastic enthusiasm.

"lee...", mcgonagall warned.

"WITH VICTORIA NOIR AS CAPTAIN!", lee announced with a fake happy tone.

the slytherins clapped meanwhile the gryffindors looked baffled as victoria entered the field with boys that were potentially twice her size and taller than the average boy.

     "w-we're playing against victoria?!", ron squeaked, to which harry was surprised too.

     "captains, please take a few minutes to discuss and prep your team before you come to terms and shake hands", lee jordan read off a script.

     "okay, no worries guys. though we've never seen noir play, she hasn't seen us play either", angelina smiled.

     "do you guys know what position she's playing?", ron asked.

"does it matter?", harry slightly scolded.

"anyways, let's focus on ourselves. we're way better at working as a team than they are", angelina encouraged.

the gryffindor team all put their hands in the middle as they chanted "gryffindors!", and lifted their arms up as high as they could.

"remember what I said. no fouls, no cheating, and no snarky remarks. you're all well selected players and I'm certain that we'll win", victoria said as the group of boys just nodded before they dispersed.

"malfoy, wait a moment", victoria stopped, making the boy raise a brow.

victoria smiled as she hugged the male, making the boy's head dip as one of her hands forced his neck down.

"wait until zabini, montague, and I rack up at least 70 points ahead to catch the snitch. however, only snatch it if harry's nearly about to catch it", victoria whispered, making the side of draco's face warm.

"and if you catch the snitch, I'll let you take me on a date", victoria confidently smiled.

     "and who said that I wanted to?", the boy scoffed.

     "oh, well I suppose I could just ask zabini to accompany me hogsmea—"

     "okay okay fine!", draco huffed as she stomped off, making victoria slightly grin.

     "captains are you both ready?", madam hooch asked.

     the two girls stepped forward and shook hands while victoria winked at ron, making the boy nearly pass out from the stress of being the new keeper and a hot girl flirting with him.

"must you flirt with everyone you see?", draco lowly muttered as the girl just laughed.

"what? jealous?"

before draco could even reply, all players mounted their brooms and flew up into the air at the sound of madam hooch's whistle.

     with crabbe and goyle as the beaters, they were up against the weasley twins from the opposing team.

     miles bletchley, the slytherin keeper, had to make sure that none of the gryffindor chasers scored any by hitting the quaffles into the rings.

     "zabini, keep an eye out for katie bell and montague, you go after alicia spinnet. I'll go after johnson", victoria called out.

     the two boys nodded as they split towards the opposite direction. victoria passed the quaffle to blaise as she smoothly avoided a bludger that fred weasley had sent her way.

with montague receiving the quaffle from blaise, he hastily attempted to throw the ball into one of the three rings as ron shakily tried to block it, failing in the process.

     "and 10 points go to the slimy slyther—"

     "JORDAN!"

     "10 points to the slytherin team", lee corrected as he then grinned. "LOOK AT FRED AND GEORGE GO!! TRYING TO KNOCK THE SLYTHERIN CAPTAIN OFF HER BROOM!!", lee excitedly announced, clearly showing his bias.

     victoria merely smirked as she had successfully caught the attention of the two older weasley boys.

the girl had successfully avoided each and every bludger that they had sent her way, giving the teammates on her team a break from the aggressive bludgers sent their way.

with the smirk on victoria's face, fred and george became more and more enthralled in trying to knock the girl off her broom.

despite how much draco had wanted to intervene, he had remembered victoria's words.

"you're the seeker, the king of the board. focus on catching the snitch and let the rest of us serve you".

draco breathed in and out as he quietly observed the game, waiting for the golden ball to appear.

much less to say, most of the gryffindors were quite surprised, as none had tried to screw with them by messing with their brooms or throwing insults their way.

"anddddd another 30 points to slytherins", lee dejectedly announced.

"WEASLEY WAS BORN IN A BIN,
HE ALWAYS LETS THE QUAFFLE IN.
WEASLEY WILL MAKE SURE WE WIN,
WEASLEY IS OUR KING!!", the slytherins all laughed.

ron embarrassingly performed worse as the slytherins kept taunting the poor boy. to make matters worse, montague then harshly threw the quaffle towards one of the lower rings.

ron tried to defend the bottom left ring only for victoria to quickly interject and change the direction of where the ball was going, making it enter the highest ring.

"sorry ron", victoria smiled as she flew away, making ron feel like jello.

with the score currently 100 to 30, slytherins were taking the lead by 70 points.

"WEASLEY IS OUR KING,
WEASLEY IS OUR KING!
HE ALWAYS LETS THE QUAFFLE IN,
WEASLEY IS OUR KING!!"

"IGNORE THEM RON!", harry shouted as the snitch had finally appeared.

     draco immediately sped towards it as harry did the same.

     harry was slightly surprised that draco had the same broom as him: the firebolt.

and surprisingly enough, draco didn't make any snarky remarks towards harry nor did he try to jab him off his broom.

     with both boys competing for the snitch, victoria had successfully scored more points with crabbe and goyle trying to knock harry off his broom with the bludgers.

     the crowd sat in anticipation as they watched the two boys fly head to head.

with the snitch fingertip length away, the two stretched their arms out trying to eagerly catch the golden ball.

     suddenly, with both boys trying to stop the other from getting the snitch first, both found themselves falling as victoria quickly casted a spell.

     "ARESTO MOMENTUM!!"

     yet in that split moment that victoria had casted the charm to save both boys, a bludger had swiftly hit the girl's left leg, making her wince as it had felt that she had broken a bone.

"DRACO MALFOY CAUGHT THE SNITCH, EARNING SLYTHERINS AN EXTRA 150 POINTS. THE WINNERS ARE SLYTHERINS!!"

the crowd went wild as everyone flew towards the ground, with victoria kneeling in the grass as she feigned a smile.

"victoria!", harry called out as he hurried over to the girl who was nearly on the verge of tears.

"get away from her potter!"

"mr. malfoy, take ms. noir to the hospital wing immediately", madam hooch instructed as draco swiftly carried the girl away.

harry and the rest of the gryffindor team just watched as they were a bit saddened by the loss and somewhat worried about victoria's leg.

"are you mad?! how the hell did you not see it coming at you?!", draco lowly growled as he hurried towards the hospital ward.

"we won though didn't we?", the girl lightly laughed as she wiped her single tear away.

even with the leg pads, it didn't save victoria from being hit from the back of her left leg.

draco simply just clicked his tongue as he miraculously opened the door to the infirmary.

"hogsmeade next weekend", victoria whispered, making draco confused.

     "oh my!! put her on the bed", madam pomfrey said as draco did as told.

     with the boy being shooed out, he glanced at the girl one last time before walking alone in the hallway, realizing he didn't even change out of his equipment yet.

     "ah, she meant the date".
