Vannah headed to the Quidditch Pitch with her robes billowing behind her. It was the first practice of the season that they would take over. She had posted a notification on the Board in the Common Room telling them to be there at 7:00. It was now 6:52. She had two first years carrying the chest with all of the balls out to the Pitch. She instructed them to set it down near the Slytherin Stands. Her Firebolt was in hand and she surveyed the Pitch. It had been set up for practice with flying courses in the air and some closer to the ground.

Cleo smiled as she trudged down to the pitch, her trusty firebolt hooked over her shoulder. "Hi Vannah" she said brightly, she had bothered to learn her team mates names, thinking it would make it easier. "Great night for a first practice Captain" she said, letting her broom rest on the ground. She reached up and tightened her ponytail, making sure her fringe wouldn't fall in her eyes.

Vannah turned around expecting to find some one other than who was standing in front of her. Who was this girl? She was unfamiliar. How did she knew Vannah? "Eermm...hello." She said, her expression confused. "Yes, I'm Vannah. And who might you be?" She asked studying the girl for any clue. Nope, she was completely unfamiliar.

"I'm Cleo, one of your chasers" she said, introducing herself. "I took the trouble to get to know who was who as I'm new I might not know everbody." she said, explaining how she knew Vannah. She smiled easily at her captain, hoping that they would get along ok, girls couid sometimes get a bit catty and especially slytherins.

Vannah studied the piece of paper given to her by the Head of Quidditch and marked off Cleo's name. "Right, well I suppose you could get yourself warmed up." She said lightly. She would begin when more people again as she hated repeating herself. She was also to curious to see what Cleo could do.

"Sure captain" Cleo said, nodding, she knew that Vannah would be watching. She mounted her broom confidently and kicked off hard from the ground, rocketing skywards. She levelled out, gaining her balance swiftly. With hardly a moment to catch her breath she was off. She circled the pitch a few times, getting her speed and enjoying the wind on her cheek. Then dropped down a little and began weaving through the air, throwing in a couple of barrel rolls. Then at breakneck speed she shoot towards the ground, pulling up level only just before she would have smashed into the ground. She carried on flying, her speed slower and more sedate. She rounded on Vannah, "So what did you thinlk?" she asked.

Captain, Vannah grinned it had a nice ring to it. Her grin began to fade as she focused on what her teammate was doing. The girl was good. Vannah had read over the list of names on the sign up briefly before practice. They would have a strong team this year, and that was what they needed. As Chloe came back, her question brought Vannah back to Earth. "It was good." Vannah said with a small smile. She rarely gave compliments. "Your turns could've been smoother. You speed is good, but you'll need to learn to use more control with that speed."

((The name's Cleo, not Chloe  )) Cleo listened carefully to Vannah, take her advice on board. "You're the boss you know best" she said with a grin, although she wasn't teasing Vannah. "I'll keep that in mind and try and work on it" Cleo said, letting Vannah know she had listened and would be a good member of the team. |

((woops sorry typo))
Vannah nodded. It was almost strange not to have Cleo fight back like so many did with her recently. Strange, but certainly not unwelcome. It felt good to hold some sort of power. Vannah had hoped more people would begin to arrive for practice by that time.

((thought it would be))
Cleo smiled absently, lost in her own thoughts for a moment. She scanned the grounds, disappointed to see no more team members nearby, she had been looking forward to meeting them. "So since the rest of the team isn't here yet do you want to just talk for a while or something?" she asked.

Vannah looked around the pitch. Her sigh was full of disappointment. She had expected more from the team. She would have to do something about them not showing up. She had figured some of the new ones probably wouldn't make it anyways and she knew some of the old ones would have to go as well. This just helped her decide who to keep.
"No." Vannah said a bit more sharply than she would have liked. It wasn'e Cleo's fault, she was angry at the rest of them for not showing. "I've got plans." She said. Well, she will have plans. Vannah took out her wand and ssent the chest away before grabbing her things. "Same time tomorrow." She called as she headed to go back to Hogwarts.

Cleo shrugged and nodded. "Sure, see you around" she said. She flipped her broom up onto her shoulder and walked off to the common room. She was intrigued by her captain, she seemed to let her anger show but she was smart when it came to quidditch. Cleo brushed those thoughts aside as she returned to the castle.
