20 Quidditch
Jack was in the carriage with his friends they were going to visit Hogsmeade, especially the Three broomstick pub/inn which all were talking about.
they were talking about the recent troll incident which happened during the Halloween and how the professor quarrel fainted.they were comments like "who made this guy a professor"," Harry potter kills troll"....the rumors were going on the students about it.
"what do you think happened, "Ben asked me and Cedric.
"I think we should not believe in rumors" Cedric stated and Jack said, "We will get to know about the rumor is true or not till the end of term during points allotments of the houses".
That's true, they all agreed to that and started talking about different things.
Soon they all reached the three broomsticks pub it was similar to leaky cauldron but is clean and has more space. they all sat and ordered the butterbeer which all the seniors were talking about there order was received by Ms.Rosmerata she was a beautiful witch all the students who were seeing her for the first time all were staring at her including jack and Cedric.
"well here are your orders please enjoy".she brought the butterbeer and snacks which the boys had ordered.
"What do you think about her" all the boys were whispering among themselves after seeing her as she was a blond witch with green eyes, white skin and mature charm.
There were rumors about how the seniors confessed their love for her and were declined every time.
this pub is visited by teachers and even headmaster on occasions, so all the students keep this place neutral and just enjoy with no infightings.
The latest gossip on the pub was about Harry Potter who was selected as a seeker and was going to play in the team and was confirmed after he got his new broom in the great hall. They were criticism about him as he was given special status. as for first-year play quidditch as it was not allowed.
There were many things jack found about harry as a spectator. harry was given more importance than anybody in school be it may from classmates, seniors or professors as no students bullied him or punished them seriously. the trio especially Hermoine, after she got along with him after the Halloween incident excluding Malfoy. rest was not the same for any other muggle-born in school.
they visited different shops in Hogsmeade which included the Honeydukes which had the secret passage from its basement to Hogwarts as jack saw the twins sniffing that area they were probably trying to locate that passage.

Quidditch Matches,
The first match of the tournament was between Gryffindor and Slytherin.
Harry was playing as the seeker it was as shown in the movies how he was in the air looking nervous and all as waiting to see the snitch.
There were many fouls by playing with Slytherin they were using curses against the Gryffindors and playing dirty.
Soon Harry broom started to lose control while the others were seeing what is happening. Jack was observing the stands where the teachers were sitting he kept his eye on Professor Quirrel as he was controlling the spell. he saw as Snape was doing the counter curse on the broom and Hermoine misunderstood it was going to ignite fire near it.
After that Harry won the game he gained some confidence and the rumors about him decreased in that week.
the next match was between Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
Jack and Cedric were on the team it was first for both of them. jack's as seeker and Cedric as a beater. they both were nervous as they were going to play in front of the crowd.
The match started Jack was sweating nervously he was on his broom sweeping his eyes here and there to see the snitch.there was the Ravenclaw seeker on the opposite side he was to looking for the snitch.
On the stands where the professor was there, Headmaster Dumbledore asked Minerva McGonagall "this is your Nephew"."yes his name is Jack" she replied. She told him about him during jack's first year.
"well, I think he is good in the game". he said that as jack was chasing after the snitch and making the moves or styles he had learned from his senior and finally between the truffle between the seeker he caught the snitch and Hufflepuff won the game.
"I'm looking forward to him against your house Minerva" As finals were between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor after Christmas.
"Jack you were Great" Jack received a lot of comments after winning the game from his friends.
They were many girls who congratulated him even Hermoine in the library the other day.
Jack and Cedric were having a great time after the match as both of them became sort of popular around the girls especially the juniors. during the time in the common room of Hufflepuff, they were approached by Susan bones and Hannah Abbott.
They get to know each other and Cedric bragged about jack, how he was top in the years in his studies and they can approach him for doubts in the studies.
Christmas,
This time at the Christmas holiday jack had to go to Forbidden forest because someone had to go for a meal.in a sense, Voldemort was going after unicorn for its blood. luckily for jack, he did it after midnight and jack placed alarming spells on the wards if he goes to the forest i.e professor Quirrell.he will get to know from his ring.
So jack sneaked easily and apparated near Hogsmeade and walked from there he soon found the traces of him using tracking soul spell which targeted specifically to Voldemort's dark soul. he found him and saw that he started to drink the blood he did not know how much time passed and used a spell to imitate trolls coming more like a realistic illusion with the ground rumbling etc.
Professor Quirrell left or ran away after seeing dozens of trolls coming through him after he left jack applied a large illusion and containment wards plus alarm wards to remove all traces and let him know if someone crossing and Bella was there guarding against the side.
He started healing the unicorn its condition was the same as the last unicorn he healed.after that he carried him back to the unicorn colony and again received their tail hair as gratitude.
after that, he roamed the forest again used the tracing spell to check if Quirrel left or still in the forest. After confirming he left he too left and apparated near his house and sneaked in his house as apparition still created a small bang whenever he did it. He felt pretty exhausted and slept until noon the other day.
Aunt min came for Christmas, Jack was having friendly conversation about the quidditch final between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor as she was head of that house. he was saying he will win against her team and she would say in a formal tone like how she taught to the sudents.
"Mr.wilson we will see who will win please do not cry if you lose". we were having a great time she was a big fan of quidditch we talked about it a lot she too complimented him about how good he was etc..
Quidditch,final
Jack was thinking about today's game if he wins he will change the future. He now accepted that he will not be so afraid about the future and not compromise things.
like he thought to give up the match so harry could win and the future remains the same.
He was awakened or he acknowledged or he was enlightened that he should enjoy and not give up opportunities like quidditch and interacting with harry or other main characters.
This happened due to conversation with Mr.hat he was talking about Voldemorts hunt this summer as he was doing it more. this was the fifth time in the four months he went o drink blood.
during that, he told Mr.hat about the game he told him how he thinking about giving up the game so harry could win. in return, he was scolded or given a lecture from Mr.dean about not to waste the opportunities and created your own future. don't follow the script screw the fate.
"If destiny or fate wanted that you would not be here nor you will know about the future". "Don't give things up as the days of Hogwarts be it bad or good will be remembered during your whole lifetime.
Well, the hat was true he gave up many things like he stopped hanging with the twins as he saw that it may create future disturbances or be in the spotlight. he spends less time with his friends and did not too show interest in girls while his friends were talking about it and ignored it.
The Match started he met harry officially during the start of the match they got to shake hands and had a conversation after that they wished each other.good luck and may the best seeker wins.
The match started this time Snape was the referee he was there as to supervise as he had suspicion on Professor Quirrel.
The Snitch was nowhere to be found, the game points reached 100 on both sides on Hufflepuff Cedric was showing his skills and from Gryffindors, the twins were blocking him from both sides
they were having comedy sort of between them.
After that, both Jack and harry spotted the Snitch at the same time and Flew after it both were on the same speed but jack got the advantage of his built compared to harry's small built or size he swooped up the snitch.
"HUFFLEPUFF WINS"
Jack approached harry after that he was looking depressed about it.
"You know I won only due to the fact that I was large in Build" jack stared at harry body and continued.
"You need to eat more, beef up" he joked"You look like some small girl".
"I will see you next tournament and then we can see who is the best seeker".
"I will definitely beat you," Harry said smilingly "we will see about that". Jack left after that he heard
Ron and Hermoine approached harry after Jack left. Ron asked harry he saw jack leaving
"What did he want ? did he come to brag".
"He is not like that" before harry said anything Hermoine added.
"what you know what he is like do you know him?".
"yes, he helped me in the library once he not the type of person to brag or criticize".
"He just said he was looking forward to playing against me during the next tournament" harry stopped their conversation and told about why he came.
"See I told you he is not like that". "whatever" Ron replied to her.
Soon all the Gryffindor team members came and too felt that it was a close call and they discussed about how they were going to win the next year definitely.
