Rod walked down to the quiditch pitch.It was already dark and the students where supposed to be in bed. "Screw that!" Rod thought. This was the first time he would be able to get a broom and sneak off to learn how to fly by himself.
The broom was the schools', and it wasn't in too bad a shape nor was it too old.Of course it didn't measure up to the firebolts he had seen people riding.
He looked up around the pitch and imagined how it would be like to play.Then he mounted his broom and lifted of the ground.He went up slowly and began to hover about the same height as the hoops.Once he got over his amazement he negan to really fly.He dived to the ground and brought the broom up at thelast second.
"Now this is the life" Rod thought.He had always imagined how it would be like to fly, and now he could finally experience it.It was amazing.
Riod took out some bouncy balls and hurled them as far as he could and he tried catching them.He didn't miss any of them.He felt pretty happy and proud for it being his first time on a broom.
Then, Rod heard a sound coming from one of the entrances from the pitch.He squinted in the dark and made out that it was not a student.It was a teacher.

((This is kinda lame)) Anorfig wasn't happy that he had to do the night outside patrol.He made his rounds to the quiditch pitch and noticed a young student on a broom playing quiditch.Heenetered the quiditch pitch.
The boy dived down and got off his broom.He started running, probably not to get caught.He wasn't going to punish him.The teacher was bored and could probably give this yuong quiditchplayer some tips.He seemed a fairly good flyer and looked like he had potential.
"Wait!Your not gonna get in trouble!Come back!" Tjhe teacher yelled.He started running after him but it was dark and he was tired and had no desire to run after the boy.
"Stupefy!" Anorfig yelled after taking out his wand and poiting it at the student.Then, he said,"Accio broom!" The broom sped towards him and he got on and went to the student.He looked at the boys' crest an noted he was a Gryffindor.He looked at the boy's face, seing if he could recognize him.When he realized who this boy was, he was shocked.It was a first year.On a broom riding the way he did he would have expected at least a fifth year.
"Finite Incantatem!" Anorfig said ending the spell.
"Boy, what are you doing out at this time?You are supposed to be sleeping."He said.
"I was just flying my broom and i didn't see the time" Rod said lamely.
"Likely excuse.Anyways, you are a first year.First years are not allowed to fly brooms.No first year I've seen has ever flown like that either.Tell you what. You will not get into trouble.I just want to see how good you are and if you really are good, I bet i could get you a spot on the team." Anorfig smiled.
"Ok!I'd like that sir." Rod said politely.
Anorfig went to get a broom and a few minutes later they where in the air.
"So what position would you like to try out for in the team?" The teacher asked.
"Well i kind of wanted to be a seeker" Rod said,"I know Harry Potter is the seeker but.."
"Actually I think Harry is going off the team because of Voldemort's return.He is focused on trying to defeat him and has dropped quiditch" The teacher said."You are the perfect shape for a seeker."
Anorfig tossed some balls everywhere for Rod to get.He didn't miss any of the balls.A few minutes later they where back on the ground.Anorfig told Rod he would see what he could do to get him on the team and marched Rod back into his common room to make sure he didn't run off again.
Rod went to sleep as soon as his head hit the pillows.
