Yeah! Here's the new chapter!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Preece has the quaffle! He advances with his broom dodging Davis and... Uhh! He almost gets hit by the bludger, lucky for him Rickett was there to protect him" Lee narrated to everyone on the pitch and in the stands, "Preece keeps advancing! He does a feint on Summer! Now he throws the quaffle to Applebee who—! Wow! What an amazing block Davis does! He managed to steal the quaffle and now he's charging towards the Hufflepuff hoops!"

"Roger!" I yelled, catching the attention of Roger who was trying to dodge the bludger and the two Hufflepuff chasers.

Roger, without looking at me, threw the quaffle up, and I quickly advanced with my broom.

Easily catching the quaffle and dodging the bludger, I did a reverse feint that nearly caused Macavoy and Preece to collide.

With my Nimbus 2001 I shot towards the Hufflepuff hoops that were being defended by Fleet, and not giving him a chance to think I threw the quaffle hard into the left hoop that was farthest from him.

Unable to react to the speed and force with which I launched the quaffle, Fleet could only watch helplessly as the quaffle passed through the hoops, thus scoring Ravenclaw's 18th goal, and my 8th goal of the match.

"And that's another goal scored by Eeeeethan Night!" Lee narrated along with the cheers of the Ravenclaw crowd, "So the score now is 180 to 70 for Ravenclaw!"

"Good feint Ethan!" Roger said to me, and I waved at him.

"Good pass" I said, but that was the only thing I could say as I had to dodge the bludger again.

"Hey Roger, let's do the lilac combo" Isabell said flying to Roger's side, speaking our tactics in code.

Last school year we used letters and numbers as codes, and while keeping some of those codes we changed most of them, and now our codes are based on colors and shapes.

"The lilac?" Roger asked, "But this is a three chaser and a beater combo. Did you warn Ethan about the combo?"

"No, but knowing him, he'll probably understand what we're going to do" Isabell said, and after thinking for a bit Roger had to agree with that.

"Okay, I'll do the Triangle feint on the first one who try blocks me," he said, and Isabell nodded.

"Perfect... So let's go!" she said, shooting with her broom towards one of the Hufflepuff chasers.

While Roger and Isabell were planning a strategy, I was getting in the way of Malcolm and Heidi with Patrick's help.

When I saw that Isabell approached Christi, I already knew it was probably to create a strategy, so I used my hearing to eavesdrop on some of the conversation.

I heard her say lilac and I immediately understood what she wanted to do, and any doubts I might have were gone when I saw Isabell approach Roger.

As I held back the Hufflepuff chasers, I saw an opportunity, and taking advantage of it I quickly moved forward, managing to take the quaffle out of Heidi's hands, who was dodging the Bludger.

"Patrick! Let's go with the blue circle!" I exclaimed to him, and that was the code to let him know that a rehearsed move was going to happen and that he should help Hillton.

With the quaffle in hand I threw it up, and as it was falling I hit it with the back of my broom, sending it flying towards Roger, who was flying over the left side of the pitch.

As Roger moved forward to catch the quaffle, Tamsin moved forward to block he, but Roger turned it upside down and let the Hufflepuff chaser and the quaffle pass him.

Just when Tamsin thought that Roger lost the quaffle and that she could catch it, a bludger came flying towards her, hitting the tip of her broom causing her to lose control of the broom.

And while Tamsin was trying to regain control of her broom, Isabell shot up and grabbed the quaffle, passing her and Heidi, who was being distracted by me and Christi.

Flying across the pitch with almost no obstacles, Isabell arrived in front of Hufflepuff hoops, and with a false throw she threw the quaffle into the middle hoop, and even with Herbert trying, the quaffle still passed him, thus scoring another goal to Ravenclaw.

The match continued to play out with Ravenclaw scoring more goals and Hufflepuff using their impeccable teamwork to score goals as well.

After a few more minutes of play, I heard a small buzz passing quickly by my side, and glancing up I saw the snitch's golden glow.

Catching the quaffle Isabell threw to me, I shot up with my broom, and the Hufflepuff Chasers quickly followed.

I didn't need to fly up, as I could simply advance to the Hufflepuff hoops to score another goal, but that was one of my ways to let Hillton know I'd found the snitch.

When I saw that Hillton looked at me, I accelerated with my broom in the opposite direction of the snitch, and Hillton understood what I meant and so accelerated with his own broom.

Even with the quaffle in my possession I didn't intend to make another goal, as I knew the victory would be ours, so I used the quaffle as a way to distract the Hufflepuff chasers and beaters, and Isabell and Roger looked understand this, for they began to do the same.

After a bit of stalling, we heard Madam Hooch whistle and the Ravenclaw cheers, and looking back we saw Hillton with a gleeful smile on his face with his hand in the air, raising the snitch to show that we'd won.

"End of game! And the winners are the Ravenclaw team!" Lee yelled, almost as excited as the Ravenclaw crowd, "With a score of 380 to 110, Ravenclaw advances to the top of the leaderboard!" this time when Lee yelled he seemed to realize that this wasn't very good for Gryffindor, as he wasn't as excited as before.

"Good catch Clark!" Patrick yelled as we landed on the pitch.

"That's it! We won!" Isabell said excitedly hugging Christi who was next to her.

As we were celebrating, the Hufflepuff team landed on the pitch with sad looks, but they still smiled at us.

"Congratulations on the win, and good catch," Rickett said, shaking hands with Hillton.

"Thanks, and that was a good match," Hillton said.

As my team was congratulated by the Hufflepuff team, I approached Cedric.

"Well I guess that means I won," I said, pushing his shoulder playfully.

"Yes," he said, a sad smile on his face.

"But hey, next year we're going to face each other again, so I hope you don't get discouraged and give me some challenge that day," I said, a teasing smile on my face.

"Haha, so I hope you don't get rusty by then…I don't want to feel bad about beating someone who wasn't in good shape," he said, also teasing me.

"That's what we'll see Ced," I said with a competitive look of anticipation. I then turned around and followed the rest of the team heading to the changing rooms.

End.

(End AN: On July 1st, the last two episodes of this season of Stranger Things will be released, and by a coincidence of fate, an order from me is also scheduled to arrive on the same day.

Can they be considered early birthday gifts?

For those of you who probably don't know this, my birthday is on the 17th of July. And I think it's now a little obvious why I call myself seven, hehe.)
