finaly! it was november first! i was in my Qudditch robe, and was in the locker room already. we got dressed in there.

Zayne gave us a prep talk. or, an Oliver Wood speech.

"alright! we can do this! we got our wonderful seeker, chasers, beaters and me as the keeper! remember all the tactics weve practiced- and put them to good use. lily, dont catch the snitch as soon as the whistle blows. or at the beginng; we want to wait, to see how good Gryffindor plays. the Gryffindor team has two Weasleys, and two Potters. lilys family. play hard- lily, show them that you can play. let it be a supprise for them that your on the team. so, all of our hard work. i dont push you too hard for this. because youll be out of energy. now, its time. good luck everyone!"

Dom ws commenting this game. "okay, we got our wonderful referee, ginny Potter, the holyhead harpies seeker. by the way, thats my godmum, so, lets start out with the Gryffindor team! our team captain is Zeke Falcony, keeper. chasers, Al Potter, Louis Weasly and Andrea Bell! the beaters- Fred Weasly, and Amy Jeffeerson! and James Potter... the seeker!" the whole stadium clapped. the Syltherin and my fellow Ravenclaws booed. our turn to fly out onto the feild.

"and the Ravenclaw team! wht an interesting team.. especielly their seeker... never knew that the seeker could even fly! their team captain, Zayne Walsh, the keeper! Mike Welch, Marrie Seinfeild, and Dominic Eckley as the chasers! the beaters are..... Andriana Mangolia, and Joey Nott! and their seeker... broken broomsticks i never knew she could fly! give it up forthe Ravenclaw seeker..... Lily Potter!"

the family was shocked. my brothers especiely. mum was, too. james looked confident, but worried. hey, i dont give up. and the know i play ruff. "alright!  nice clean game would be good! ive seen my teammate Josh Torrez get hit with a bludger in the sides! captains, shake hands." they gruffly did so. "and.. begin!!"

i mounted my school broom, the Lightning Speedo, and raced off. i focosed on the crowd. and listened to the score, too. "and Weasly- Louis that is- passes the Quaflle to Bell- and Eckley gets a hold of it. 10-0, Ravenclaw!" okay, so far, we were winning. the worst thing that could happen is this game becoming a flow blown riot. darn Lily. dont jinx it! i saw Jay swoop down and go into a dive; i knew better than to follow him.

the wind was racing through my firey red locks. i liked the sensation, it felt good. "50-45, Ravenclaw." she was getting bored. then i saw something glitter by the Ravenclaw goal post.

'its almost as it wants me to get it. orits taunting Jay.', i thought to myself. i went after it. "Bloody hell!" "Weasly! watch your tounge!" "Yikes, sorry Professor M. i dont want my tounge to be cut off like an Avox.. it seems that Potter has caught sight of the snitch!" thatdidnt help the crowd at all.

"oh, lily that is." i zigged zagged through the Gryffindor beaters, and watched the snitch go in between me and jay.

we both raced towards it, and we were sudenly neck and neck. "good luck sis." he said loud enough over the wind for me to hear him. "same to you, big bro." again, we were closer than ever.

our hands reached out at the same time, and i touched it- we both touched it. we were only a few feet above the ground, and we both tumblled and fell of our brooms. we both raised our hand. mum came over, acting as a parent and a referee. "my god.. ive never seen this before... james potter has caught the snitches wings, while lily potter has caught the ball part of it."

and then the fight began. Slytherin, and all the Ravenclaws came to my side. Hufflepuff and Gryffindor to jays. a riot began. people were already unconsious on the floor. i let my broom fall into the crowd, and the advantadge of me being small, i ran out of the pitch, and hid by the bleachers. Dom joined into the fight. and i was left alone. in the stands, mum at my side.

"im not stupid. their all gonna get it." "Congrats on Ravenclaw sweetie. slytherins fighting for your house..." "well, anything but Gryffindor. i know a few guys and girls that got connections, and lets just say, that friends might not be easy to make for me, but hey- i got Veronica, Rue, Jake, Ly, Emma, and Erica. Emma and Erica are Slytherins, Rue and Veronica are in Ravenclaws (like me), Jake a Gryffindor, and Ly a Hufflepuff. i got connections."

more and more people were on the green pitch, unconsious. "should i join?" "i dont know- perferably not... its like a minuture version of the..." oh. i get it. the battle of Hogwarts. "we can call it, 'the Battle of Qudditch'." she let out a small laugh, and said, "you crack me up, sweetie." "well, unless you fall of  brick wall like humpty dumpty.." another laugh.

te sight of the riot was horrible. the began to fire some spells that i didnt know, or have even heard of. "our jay and al in trouble?" "defenitly." i smirked, and said, "the hat said that al belonged in Slytherin." she looked taken back at that. "well, its his choice too. i remeber when he was born." "really?"

she frowned a little, and said, "there was something about him that i couldnt pick out. he was special, a special baby. he still is. hes my baby boy. even though hes fourteen." she looked at me proudly. what ws she gonna say about me?

"lily-pie, you were a special baby too. there was a sparkle in your eye ever sinceyou came out of me. i couldnt figure you out- until now." wait... what? "baby, your hair is blue." wha? "your a metamorphagus." awesome! that gave me an idea... "how bout at Christmas we trick jay, al, and dad?" "id love to see that."

so, eventually McGonagoll stopped the fight (she scares the crap outof me!) and i was the only one who didnt get detention.

being called a coward everyday isnt really self boosting... but i feel like a Slytherin. i should be in that house. i was talking to Dumbledore (the portrait) about this.

"But.. why am i in Ravenclaw? i was a coward. i was like Slytherin in the battle of Hogwarts; i aboandonned my own house- my own team." "Lily, it is our choices who show who we truly are, far more than our abilities." "so your saying that i did the right thing?" "you did, somebody could of gotten very hurt, even killed if things went to far. but you showed that a battle over a snitch isnt worth all those injuries!" "thats what there calling it. battle of the snitch, battle of the houses, but more popularly, 'the battle of the siblings.'" "how interesting." droned the voice of Severus Snape.

"tell me who faught to call it that." "me, and my brothers james and al. well, i didnt fight. james, al, and the weasleys- my cousins- did though." "very brave of you, to not fight, no matter what the temptaton." "oh no, im not brave. my dad says that you, mr. snape, was the bravest man he ever knew." he looked at me shocked.

"and i think its true. it takes a whole load of braveryjust to join a dark side to spy on them. and i would never have the courage to do that." my brothers namesake told me (Dumbledore, that is.) "youll discover things Lily. one of your friends could betray you anyday. a time will come when you might not be able to tell your enimies from your friends. but in the end, youll see who they really are."

the battle of the siblings phenomenon carried on all through December, when it was time for the Winter holidays. i knew the holidays are stressfull, but fun. i, for one, cant wait to trick my family.
