Rosalyn sighed as Germany got hold of the bludger. She bit her lip, thinking hard. She nodded once to herself and swirved, leaning down on her broom and zooming off toward Letty. She glared, her teeth grinding as she fought for her broom to move faster. She caught up with the german chaser and leaned over, trying to steal the Quaffle.

Letty had gotten the quaffle, and was back off toward the Spanish goal. She urged her broom faster and faster until it seemed that she just couldn't make it get any faster. She heard something buzzing behind her. Turning to look she saw a Spanish Chaser and a bludger. Letty thought. Surely she could evade the bludger, but what about the other Chaser would she be able to keep the quaffle from Spain. She looked around for someone to pass too. Letty knew she had to do something..

Dara whooshed by the other players on the pitch. This had been a good game even thought it seemed that Spain had been dominating. However, with the player change, Germany may still pull it through. Noticing another bludger whizzing toward Letty, Dara placed herself in between her captain and the bludger.

Adelle narrowed her eyes as she saw a Spanish Chaser back in possession yet again - and they were heading straight for the goalhoops. Surely they didn't think they'd make it all the way there? Such a presumption would be foolhardy... the German team was one of the best in the world. With this thought - and indignation rising within her as well at the supposed slight to her team's skill - she urged her broom on so that she whizzed past the other Chaser and then turned sharply to come back the other way, losing enough speed on the turn that when she passed the Spaniard she had some time to think and attempt to snatch the Quaffle away from them.

((This is not the first infraction of the rules; I would like to ask everyone no matter how familiar you feel you are with the rules to please go review them. The only rule that has been changed is that beaters only need to roll a 3 in contact in order to hit the bludger because it is felt that professional players would rarely if ever have problems with contact unlike house players who do not have half the year’s of experience as professionals. This is a warning to everyone, captains please take note I am leaning on you to enforce this as well, now that you have all reviewed the rules any infractions at all and you will be replaced by an alternate player and will not be put back into the game. As well, thank you Deidrick and Adelle for responding calmly but promptly as soon as you noticed what was going on. All three of you may modify/delete your posts now if you chose. Adelle is attempting to steal the quaffle. Adelle 1+1=2 Rosalyn 1+4=5Adelle fails to steal the quaffle. Rosalyn has the quaffle. Spain still in possession.))

((SORRY!! Forget my attempt at scoring. My mind is slipping. I just reread the rules and deleted my post)) She had gotten hold of the Quaffle. She turned her broom and headed in the other direction toward the German goal posts, her eyes searching for a teammate to pass to. Suddenly, a German chaser tried to steal the Quaffle. Rosalyn smiled as she held firm on the Quaffle, pushing the girl back. Her head whipped back and forth as she searched for someone to pass to. ((searching for someone to pass to))

The game was well under way and not a team had put any points on the board yet. Jurgen had missed a steal and an interception. He shook the thought out of his head, he couldn't let it get to him now. He still had a game to play. He easily spotted the Spanish chaser with the quaffle. It seemed like she was getting ready to pass. Jurgen wasn't going to give her the chance. Catching up to her he began to grab for the quaffle.

Juliana nodded as Lydia caught her pass. However, the quaffle went right back to the Germans soon enough. Juliana sighed trying to get closer to the action, but she had difficulty with all the people around her. However, it didn't take long for Rosalyn to get the quaffle once again. Rosalyn was nearing the German Goal and it was obvious that she needed someone to pass to. Juliana flew as close as she could to Rosalyn.

Rosalyn bit her lip, her eyes searching for a teammate to pass to. Suddenly, a German chaser flew next to her, grabbing for the Quaffle. She struggled to keep hold of it. Her grip tightened. She hoped she could hold onto another steal. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Juliana. Her heart beat quickened as she hoped she could hold on to the Quaffle and pass.

((I realise it's not clear in the rules so I won't roll this or pull anyone but please, guys, only one attempt to steal may be made. It is not fair to someone who takes longer to pass to have X number of steal attempts made on them where as if they had passed immediately they would only get one. Therefore from now on only one steal attempt, please.))

((Um if I'm not allowed to make a complete and utter nuisance of myself first trying to steal and then trying to intercept, let me know and I really am sorry. I've checked the rules right now and can't find anything but eh... I'm deadly tired and might've missed it.))
Adelle frowned as she made no headway with gaining the Quaffle, but wasn't about to give up that easily. She recovered quickly and urged her broom back into top speed, her stomach plummeting for a moment as she heard her nation's supporters cheering her on as she shadowed the enemy... heh opposition Chaser. She forced some self control into herself before she made the final burst of speed to put herself between the Chaser she'd been shadowing and the Spanish Chaser who the Quaffle had just been passed towards. She was in a perfect position - but as the Quaffle came towards her she wasn't sure she was prepared enough to catch it. She was more hoping that she would than doing all she could to ensure she did.

((Ok, so I took that last post from Rosalyn as my que to catch the pass. If that's wrong than just tell me and I will happily modify/delete this))
It seemed that Rosalyn wanted to pass. Juliana tried to get into a clear area. She saw the German Chaser out of the corner of her eye. Juliana knew the girl wanted that quaffle. Juliana continued to find the best spot for her to catch the pass. Finding one, Juliana raced forwards as she saw it fly through the air.

Juliana, it makes no difference whatsoever if you post catching the quaffle or not – it’s all up to you. Like the people posting getting close or looking for people to pass to – it’s just to amuse themselves not intrical to the game. So feel free to post, or not, whatever suits you. Hope that helps.))

Adelle blinked in surprise as she caught the Quaffle, a wave of exhilaration passing through her like wildfire. She had the Quaffle! And she was wasting time, Adelle thought, cursing herself simultaneously to urging her broom into full speed towards the Spanish goalhoops, away from the German ones where too much of the action had been for her liking. She'd been moving before anyway - but not at top speed and that would give the Spaniards more time to try to intercept the pass she would inevitably have to make, or, even worse, it might give one a chance to come alongside her and try to steal the Quaffle. Adelle hugged the red ball close to her, only bringing it out to pass as she felt the space with no other Chasers to thwart her plans decreasing rapidly. Jurgen was still there; she could see him out of the corner of her eye, and now she wheeled her broom around slightly in mid-flight to pass to him.

((wow this is getting confusing...))
Rosalyn cursed again as the Quaffle fell into German hands yet again. She glared at the German Chaser, leaning over on her broom and going off down the pitch. She was passing to Jurgen. Her smile was instant. Perfect. She urged the Firebolt to go even faster as she reached out to intercept the pass.

The game continued its back and forth play. As it was normally, this was Quidditch after all. One moment Spain had the quaffle, the next Germany, and than it was spain once again. Jurgen scanned the field, the best player knew how to guess what his opponent was doing and get in front to stop the attack. He was attempting to find his best way into the game when Germany got the possesion back and he was one of the closest chasers. Adelle passed the Quaffle toward him and Jurgen eagerly spun around and chased after it. The Quaffle soared over an oposing Chaser and than fell neatly into Jurgen's waiting hands. He was close to the Goal hoops now. There wouldn't be time for another pass. Tucking the ball safely into the crook of his arm Jurgen took off for the hoops. He zigzaged slightly in an attempt to throw off any pursuers and than he was at the hoops. He pump faked to the left and than quickly spun and tossed it toward the right hoop.

Adal sat on his broom calmly while his brown eyes searched a bluger. Those things were always so hard to find let alone to hit. Dara had been quick in saving Letty from any bludgers attacks. Noticing an iron ball come his way, Adal prepared himself for it. His bat got higher in the air as each inch the bludger came toward. Finally giving it a hard smack he hoped that it would make its destination to that Spanish chaser.
