Harry Potter and What Happened After - Sahits

"We could do that, but I've grown rather fond of winning," said Ginny
"What if we fly by the seat of our pants?" asked Frank
"No, I like brooms better, there easier to keep under control," said Harry.
"What if we wing it?" asked Johnny, a small smile spreading across his face.
"No, that's the snitch, and I think it's illegal for players to have wings on the field." Said Harry
"Oh," said Johnny, "that puts a damper in that plan."
Hermione just stared, she couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Are you guys going to come up with
actual strategy or is this just going to be a 'how many flying jokes can we make' session?"
"I thought we were coming up with strategy." Lauren said
"Yeah, so did I," said Johnny
"Alright, how about this; we practice as much as possible, then we play as well as we can. We have
three F2s, but all three are flown by the three oldest people on the team so the advantage we get is a bit
smaller. Also, Ginny will have to slow down a bit to stay with Johnny and Frank, don't get me wrong,
she can still take the quaffle and go for a breakaway, but she could do that before, now it's just a bit
faster."
"We could give the three F2s to the chasers," said Frank, a bit of hope in his voice.
Harry smiled, "No," he said simply
"Or not," said Johnny, "ok, here's what we do. Instead of using the beaters to keep the other team from
getting the ball, we use them to help defend the goal posts. Danny or Lauren stays by the goal posts for
the whole game, the other beater goes and protects our players, but once the other team gets the quaffle
she sends a bludgers down to the goal posts and the beater there initiates a head on collision between
the chaser carrying the quaffle and the bludger."
"I like it," said Lauren, a wicked grin plastered on her face.
"It'll be nice to have some company down by the goal posts," said Ron. "With Ginny on the team it can
get pretty lonely while she's scoring over and over again."
"I'll try and give the other team a chance this year," said Ginny sweetly.
"Thanks sis," said Ron.
"You're welcome."
"Alright, lunch is over," said Harry standing up, "it's time we get out there and see if what we came up
with will work."
Ron turned to Hermione and, smiling, said "can you charm the seats of our pants to fly?"
The whole team burst out laughing, and even Hermione cracked a smile. "No, but I will come and
watch."
"That works too," said Ron as the team started out towards the pitch.
A few minuets later the new team, and Hermione, was assembled in the locker room. "As you have all
figured out, hopefully, this is the locker room," started Harry. "We'll meet here before and after every
game, and sometimes before practice. You'll each be assigned a locker, which is where you will keep
your Quidditch gear and robes. There are showers in the back, and yes, each house has there own
locker room so we don't need to worry about sharing lockers with Slytherins." This brought a chuckle
