Henry walked outside with his broom in his hand. "Hum, I don't see anyone outside here I guess it's a good spot to ride my broom stick." So, henry held his broomstick out and went for a little ride. He rode around the grounds, he was going near a tower. Then Henry rembered that he doesn't know how to ride a broomstick very well because this is his first time. He then crashed into a window. A bludger came flying at him and he fell off his broomstick he was falling (luckely he wasn't very high up and the bludger didn't hit his head), then he fell on the ground. Henry was hurt, he was sitting on the ground he he so someone somewhat close. Henry yelled, "Hey you, I need help i'm hurt!"

CJ decided to practise a bit later after the practise, so she watched her team mates leave, and she continued. A little while later, one of the bludgers got loose, and released into the grounds. She flew off the pitch as fast as her firebolt wold take her, only to see it go after someone else who was flying. CJ chased after it, hearing the person yell out for help. She smacked the bludger in the opposite direction, back towards the pitch, but it turned and went back for Henry. CJ turned sharply and flew close to it, she was now pretty close to Henry, and she jumped off her brrom at the bludger, jumping on top of it. She hit the ground, the bludger struggling underneath her. She was fighting her hardest to restrain the bludger, she was unable to reach her wand. The bludger escaped from underneath her, and she ran at full speed, managing to pin it down beside Henry, so she was just a few feet from him. "'E- 'el- lo." She said, struggling with the ball. She trapped the bludger with one arm and reached down under her quidditch robes, finally able to get her wand. She aimed her wand at the bludger with difficulty, saying "Bombarda!" and then covering the ball as it exploded.

CJ stood up, looking distinctly ruffled. She had a few bruises, but was otherwise unhurt. CJ walked over to Henry, dropping down beside him, riasing her wand and pointing it at him. "Episky." She said, using the healing spell this time. "Are you OK now? I'm CJ, Slyzerin Beater. Sorry about zat, ze bludger escaped from ze pitch, zough I do not know 'ow it managed to." CJ smiled weakly, running her fingers through her hair, then straightening the green quidditch robes.

Henry was still hurt a little. "I'm still in a little pain, can you please take me to the hospital wing?" Henry asked. Then the healing spell started to help a lot. "Never mind I don't think I need to go to the hospital wing anymore. Thank you for helping me. Where did you learn that healing spell?" Henry then realized that he was asking a lot of questions and then he asked CJ, "Hi I'm Henry it's nice to meet you. You're the first slytherin i've met that's nice."

CJ was still trying to catch her breath after her battle with the bludger, she was suprised at herself for being able to do that actually. Anyone who looked at CJ would never expect it of her, for she looked so delicate and thin, more like a seeker's build, not a beater's. "Nice to meet you zen, 'Enry." She said in her strong french accent. Her accent seemed to "enchant" people alot, like one person in particular that she knew. "Can I 'elp you up?" She asked, holding out her hand for him to take.

Henry was happy that CJ wanted to help Henry and that she saved him from the bludger. "Yes you may help me up, Thank you. Also, thanks for saving my life, I proably would be dead meat if It wasn't for you". Henry didn't have much breath either but in about thirty seconds his breath came back. "I think you would be a good beater or a seeker. So do you play quidditch? If you do what postion do you play?"

CJ pulled Henry up with suprising strength, then answered his question. "I do play actually, I am on ze Slyzerin team. I am ze starting beater as well as ze reserve seeker. I am also Slyzerin cheerleading captian and founder of ze cheer team." CJ flicked back her hair then asked "Do you zink you are going to be interested in playing for ze Ravenclaw team? You know, if you ever want someone to practise or fly wiz, I would be 'appy to, 'Enry. I am er... Well let's just say I am a natural flier and zat I spend most of my time in ze air, wezer on a broom or off." She was of course refering to her being an animagus. Most of her time was spent up in the owlery or else in the forest in the form of a beautiful snowy owl. CJ gave Henry a sincere smile to show that she wasn't joking around to get a laugh out of him, her being a Slytherin and all.

Henry thoguht about wether he thought he was ready for qudditch yet or not. Henry then said to Cj, "Yeah I think I'll play on the ravenclaw team. The only problem is that I don't know how to play quidditch yet, and I don't know how to fly a broomstick that good." Henry then thought for a minute about how he could pratice. "Hey I have an idea, How about you teach me how to play quidditch?"

CJ's eyes lit up at the idea of teaching Henry how to play quidditch. "O' zat would be so fun, I would be 'appy to teach you!" She said excitedly. CJ took out an Ebony and Dragon Heartstring wand, and pointed it up at the castle. "Accio Firebolt." She said, then a few minutes later watched a broom flying out of the castle. CJ caught her broom when it reached her and stood it up on it's one end wrapping her arm around the handle.

Henry noticed that she has a nice broom. "Sweet broom CJ" Henry told CJ. "So are you gonna teach me how to fly now and then teach me how to play quiditch?" Henry asked CJ. Henry started to get excited, he's always wanted to fly a broom. And He's never learned how. "I only have a school broom, will that be okay to practice with?"

CJ giggled at henry. "Yes, I am going to teach you. A school broom will be just fine." CJ Held out her broom at her side then just let it go, and it just hovered where she left it. "OK, since you are using a school broom wich is alot different from having your own broom, you first lay it down on the ground, hold your hand over it, and say "up". Remember to be confident and say it clearly otherwise it won't go anywhere. Keep trying if you don't get it the first time, because you will get it soon enough." CJ couldn't keep from smiling as she stepped back a bit.

"What are you smiling at?" Henry said with a funny tone. Henry then put his hand his hand over the broom and said,"Up" nothing happened. He tried agian, nothing. Again, nothing, agian, nothing. He tried it five more times and then it wacked him in the face. "Damn it I'm awful at his. I'm never going to get to fly a broomsitck."

CJ looked slightly taken aback and embarassed. "Wh- I- Nozing." She had turned a bit red. CJ bit her lip as she watched Henry's attempts to get the broom off the ground. For a minute she thought of what to do, but then a memory came back of the first time she had tried to do this part. "Don't worry, ze same zing 'appened to me when I first learned 'ow. I know exactly what to do, but only because my brozer 'ad to do ze same for me." Cara stepped over to Henry and placed her hand onto Henry's, then said "up." The broom rose straight off the ground so that henry could catch it, and CJ stepped back again and gave him an "I told you so" kind of look. "Now, mount ze broom, and I will adjust your position and grip, zen after you can kick off hard from ze ground."

Henry mounted his broom, and then he flew off. Henry was flying and flying around the grounds a little. Henry was trying to stay as close to CJ as possible. He accidently flew to far away. He then crashed into a window and he was bumnping it. He then fell off his broom and yelled, "OH NO! Please someone make it so I'll fall slowly so I'll be okay". He kept on falling,falling....

CJ was about to adjust his grip, when he kicked off. CJ shook her head but watched him smiling. Her smile slipped off as he crashed into the window again and started falling. CJ jumped onto her broom, not knowing the spell to slow him down. She sped off as fast as the firebolt would fly, and pulled the falling Henry onto her broom. CJ slowed down and laughed quietly to herself, then said . "Try zat again, but zis time I will be up in ze air wiz you."jokingly "Crashing into windows is fun, but it won't get you anywhere." CJ flew as far away from the castle as she thought nessecary, before landing and getting off her broom. CJ flicked her wand saying "accio broom" then mounted her broom again, getting ready to kick off. After all, from what she had seen. Henry's grip was pretty good already.

Henry tried again and flew off again. This time he did pretty good he's been up in the air longer than he was before. "Yes I'm doing it", Henry said. Then what do you know Henry fell of, he was just a little higher than he was before. Then he said, "Ow, now I really do think I need to go to the hospital. My arms and legs feel like their broken. Will you please take me there CJ?"

CJ flew off after Henry, but wasn't paying attention when he fell. She sighed and flew down to him, jumping off her broom several feet off the ground then kneeling down beside Henry. "I can take you if you really want, but I know ze spell zat Alfie and previously Madame Pomphrey uses to 'eal broken bones. I studied to be an 'ealer for several years, and I say I'm not too bad at it. If you would prefer professional 'elp 'owever, just say ze word and I will take you zere. Eizer way, I do not zink you should try flying again." CJ smiled at henry again, getting out her wand to either fix his legs and arms, or to create splints for her to take him down to the hospital wing.

Henry thought about which one of the options he'd rather have; have CJ fix his arms and legs or take him to the hospital wing? Henry then made his decision and said to CJ, "I've made up my mind, I'd like you to please take me to the hospital wing." Henry's school broomstick then fell off on his face. "Ow now I need to go to the hospital wing for my face too." Henry complained to Emilie.

(Emilie? O.O)

CJ nodded at Henry then made a few swirling motions with her wand, conjuring several splints. If she were to take him down as he was, she would cause so much more damage, and that was the last thing she wanted. CJ set aout fastening them to his legs, then moved up and fastened them to his arm, then tucked her wand into the pocket of her quidditch robes and picked Henry up effortlessly and started walking. She would have used her wand, except for that she cast the spell strong enough to lift up something heavy, and she didn't know any other spells.

Henry was wondering if it was going to take long for him and CJ to get to the hospital wing. "How Long's it going to take us to get to the hospital wing?" Henry whined. Henry was wondering how CJ was able to pick him up. "Wow you're strong if you can pick me up. Do you work out at all?"

Cj smiled down at Henry and answered him, "O' it will not take longer than 5 minutes to get zere." She continued walking but stopped ad giggled at his next comment. "Why, yes, actually I do. Got to stay in shape for the quidditch matches. Some of those bludgers are hard!" CJ shook her head and started walking again.

Henry was hoping that he woulnd't get hit by any bludgers when he plays quidditch, and if he does he's hoping he doesn't get hit hard. Henry then asked CJ hoping the number was low, "How many times have you got hit by bludgers? And how many of those times did it hurt a lot? I hope they never knocked you off of your broom."

CJ paused again in thought. After a few minutes she answered. "I 'ave been hit by bludgers too many times to count, and I must have been in the 'ospital wing at least 100 times or more." CJ continued walking again. "O', I 'ave been knocked off my broom alright, and I 'ave been knocked unconcious several times as well. But I guess it's all a part of 'aving the position, and being reserve seeker as well 'as counted for a few of my injuries." CJ smiled down at Henry to show that she wasn't bothered at all by the prospect of being knocked out by a bludger.

Henry asked CJ, "So If I end up as a seeker for the Ravenclaw team do you think I'll fall off my broom at least once?" Henry was then wondering if anyone has ever died from falling off their broom before. Henry asked her, "do you know anyone that has died from falling off of their broom before?" Henry was really hoping she would say no. Otherwise he might think twice about playing quidditch. :no:

CJ giggled and answered him "No, I can't say zat I know anyone or 'eard of anyone 'oo died playing quidditch. Referees will vanish for a while and turn up a few months later in a different country, but no, no one 'as ever died." CJ deliberately left out the fact that she had come within an inch of death while playing quidditch as a young girl. Her brother had bewitched the snitch and it made her fall off her broom, she was lucky to have survived, healers were saying she woudn't. CJ sighed at the memory and pushed her way into the castle doors, starting her way up the stairs.

Henry was wondering why her brother did that? "Why did your brother do that to you? Did he want you to die?" Henry asked CJ. He was feeling a little sick because CJ was running pretty fast. "Uh, CJ can you slow down a little so that I don't puke at all?" Henry asked. Henry noticed that they were almost at the hospital wing, 'thank god', Henry thought.

(uhm, CJ didn't actually say what happened to her, she was thinking it, and she erm... wasn't running. Sorry for this post, I'll delete it soon...)

O Henry is so sorry about that post I guess he didn't realise that you were thinking and not saying that. Henry's also sorry that he thought you were running Henry must be just getting sick from falling off his broom and being in a lot of pain. That's his bad he'll try not to let that happen again. "Why does it seem like we've been gone to go to the hospiatal wing for a while?" Henry asked CJ.

CJ looked down at Henry and sighed. "Zat ees because eet eez on ze zird floor, and we came all ze way from ze grounds." CJ continued walking on turning another corridor then walking up more stairs to the second floor, gettting odd looks from students who were standing in the halls.

Henry didn't like that the students in the halls were staring at them. So, Henry said to them, "What the bloody hell are you looking at!? Mind your on business or I'll Jinx you!" Henry then noticed that most of them are slyherins. So he said to the slytherins, "Well you know what?! Slytherin Sucks!" They then coniued to walk about the steps and Henry noticed someone crying. They stoped running and Henry said to the poor griffindor boy, "What's the matter?"

CJ stopped sharply, glaring down at Henry. " 'Ow dare you..." She said venomously, dangerously down at Henry, resisting the temptation to drop him, take out her wand and curse him into a slug. "You never 'ad a problem wiz me being a Slyzerin before. In case you are too blind to see it, or just too stupid, ze times 'ave changed, we are not all mean and cruel anymore, ze 'ouse rivalry is almost non- exhistent, and nearly everyone at zis school is friends. So are you going to start 'ating me because of my 'ouse? Don't stereotype us, zat ees just wrong." CJ glared furiously down at Henry.

Henry didn't mean to hurt CJ's feelings so he said, "Oh, I'm sorry I won't stereotype you ever agian I promise. But let's see what's wrong with this boy and help him first." ...to CJ. Henry looked at the boy again and said for a second time, "Dear boy what's the matter was someone mean to you? Are you hurt? Do I or CJ need to take you to the hospital wing? We will if we have to. We're very nice people, I promise." Henry said to the boy again very nicely, hopeing he would answer soon.

CJ glared at Henry for a few more seconds before she nodded understandingly. She turned her attention to the Gryffindor boy, who by the looks of him was a first year. She smiled encouragingly down at him, nodding for him to tell them what happened. "You can trust me, 'Un(hun)." She said to the younger boy.

"Please tell us what's the matter little boy and we sware we'll help you, and we won't be mean either. We're really nice people, but If you don't tell us what happened then we can't help you." Henry said, and then he noticed that the boy looked a little familar. "Hey you look pretty familar. What's your name son?" Henry asked the boy.

CJ bit her lip in annoyance at Henry and scoffed down at him. She was tempted to drop him down onto the floor and walk off again, but she held herself back like the last time. She smiled again at the boy, then poked henry in the side just for the heck of it, but mostly to try to show him that she was getting irritated. CJ still didn't say anything, waiting for the boy to say something to them.

"Come on little boy please say something to us. We've been waiting for days or weeks for you to say something. The sooner u say something the sooner until we can help you. Now please say something soon or i'm going to pick you up and take you to the hospital. You have until tommorow at 11:30 A.M." Henry was done with his short lexture for now, and would get him to talk tommorow.

CJ made an irritated noise and poked Henry in the side again, sharper this time, and said "Oh, no you won't be. Not with broken arms and legs and while I am carring you around. I might be strong, but I can't carry two people at once." CJ turned her attention back to the younger boy and said sternly "Look, I am a professor so you know you can trust me, and I would like you to tell me what is wrong. It will stay confidential, but I need to know what is the matter. What's your name?"

Henry still had a hunch that the boy wasn't go to respond. "Please little boy, you need to tell us your name. No one will hurt you if you tell us your name. We'll talk to whoever was mean to you without them getting mad at you, or without you getting even more hurt. All you have to do is tell us your name. Failure to do so will result in CJ giving you a detetion and, your housing losing mayor house points. So what do you say? Will you tell us your name? This is your last chance or CJ will give you a detention and take house points from you. She is a prefect and she can do those consquences. So tell us your name." Henry said. Henry was starting to get mad that this little boy wouldn't do as much as tell them his name. Is It that much to ask? Henry thinks not!

CJ gave henry a quizical look, and was starting to wonder if he had hit his head too when he fell. She wasn't a prefect. "Umm. Henry, I'm not a prefect, I am a professor. And I will not be giving him a detention, or taking any points away from him. Come on. We have to go now. We can't stand around forever. If he wants to tell us, he will before we are gone." CJ started walking slowly again.

"Fine and sorry I thought you were a prefect my mistake." Henry said to CJ. "And by the way I wasn't really gonna have you give him a detetion or take house points away from him, I just said that to try to get him to talk. But now that you said it out loud that's too late already." Henry whispered to CJ. Henry then looked at the boy and said, "Well little boy if you ever want to tell us your name or want our help you can do any of the following. You can send us a letter with an owl. Or you can tell us at Ravenclaw tower, if you're a Ravenclaw. Or finally, you can look for us in the hallways our at the grounds." Henry said to the boy, hoping he'd tell them his name soon so they could help him.

CJ snickered at the thought of the little boy sending a letter to her by owl. "Or you can just give it to the snowy owl that sits on the floor hooting at everyone." She said to the boy, refering to herself in animagus form. "Well soooorry, 'Enry. I would really like to go back up to visit Nakutro before he forgets I exist. I miss him, ya know. By the way, that boy was a Gryffindor, not a Ravenclaw." CJ glanced back at the boy again and started walking yet again.
