The young girl stayed put as her new friendly companion continued to circle her. In truth, it was starting to make her feel a tad uncomfortable. She felt as if she were being judged from all angles, all her physical flaws left open for scrutiny. "Like what you see?" she joked, trying to lighten her awkward mood.
Emmy raised a brow at this curious individual. "It seems like you lead a very interesting life with your friends," she paused here before continuing. She held a small apprehension of inviting herself into his group like she was about to do. "You'll have to take me with you some time. We'll paint the town red."

Sirius noticed her glance at him uncomfortably, and decided it might be a good idea to stop circling her. He had only been doing it to show off, he hadn't meant to make her feel awkward. "Maybe I do, but you'll have to wait and find out." he grinned at her, thinking that it might not look so good when he did it upside down.
"Ahh that I do." he said with a grin. "I'm sure we could arrange something."

Emmy bit her lip, right in the center. If someone looked closely at it, they would see a slight discoloration where her teeth always found a hold. She seemed to bite her lip often when she was thinking. After a moment, she tucked her shirt securely into the waist band of her pants and swung her leg over the side of her broom, falling backwards to match Sirius's position.
"I guess it's settled then," she smiled at him.

Sirius grinned as she joined him in his upside down position. "Couldn't beat me then?" he asked with a mischievous grin. He tilted his head back and looked down at the grass of the pitch, which was quite a way below them now.
He then looked up at the sky and the first drop of rain hit him on the forehead.

Emmy laughed again, a clear true laugh. "Beat you at what? The ability to fly while hanging from my knees?" She shrugged, though it felt strange in this upside down position. The girl strained her neck to look to the sky as rain drops began to dribble down. A small frown creased her features.
"I don't know about you, but I don't have any particular desire to be soaked by the rain," she stated. She bent forward to grab her broom firmly and swing herself back to a sitting position.

"No, if you can't beat them, join them. You joined me in hanging upside down." he said simply.
"I don't mind the rain, but we can go inside if you want." he shrugged. Tensing his stomach muscles and swinging his arms he pulled himself back up onto his broom and turned to face Emmy. "Need a hand?"

Emmy shook her head. "You really are full of yourself, aren't you?" And, yes, she did mind the rain at the moment. At least, flying in the rain for the time being. "I'd prefer to stay out of the rain today. But keep flying, by all means. I'll watch from under the shelter."
She laughed at his offer to help her back on her broom. Her hands firmly gripping the broom, she lifted her knees and swung them through underneath the broom till she was dangling by her arms instead of her knees. From there, she pulled herself up and swung her leg over. "You'll find I can handle myself rather well on my own."

Sirius grinned, "looks like I'm not the only show off. We can sit in the stands for a bit, I don't think it'll last long." he said looking up at the clouds, they looked a bit pathetic and he was sure they would rain themselves out soon.

Emmy shrugged, looking over at Sirius with a grin. "Just showing you you're not the only whiz kid on a broom," she joked. With that, she leaned forward on her broom and a little to the right to move in a steady spiral to the ground. Her toes touched the ground, damp still from the morning. She sank her heels down and dismounted, waiting for Sirius to join her.

Sirius followed her to the ground, jumping enthusiastically off his broom and grabbing his bat as he did so. He followed Emmy over to the stands jumped over the barrier, and sat himself down on the first row of seats.

Emmy followed Sirius to the stands, hopping over after him. The seats were hard and cold from lack of use. She set her broom down on the second row of seats and sat herself down in the first. Absentmindedly, she gazed up at the clouds. Rain was the sky's way of crying according to her brother. Now that she was older she knew better, but he'd kept her going with that years ago. "That one looks like a troll," she giggled, pointing at a dark cloud closer to the treetops than the others.

Sirius set his broom and bat down on the second row and tilted his head back to look at the roof of the stands. He ran his eyes along the grain of the wood and hummed quietly to himself. He snapped his head back when she spoke and looked at where she was pointing. He smiled and laughed a little, and looked out at the swirling angry cloud.
"That one looks like a dragon." he said pointing to a patch that way about to float away over the stadium roof.

Emmy giggled, gazing off in the direction Sirius pointed to. It did resemble a dragon, more than hers seemed to resemble a troll, at any rate. "I'd like to see a real dragon some day," she commented. "My brother has. He comes across them from time to time as he travels. He's shown me photographs, but they never measure to the real thing." The girl shrugged, coming to the conclusion that she was beginning to babble and therefore stopping herself before she spoke too much.

Sirius smiled. "That's an ambition that could get you a few burns." he said with a laugh, looking out to see if there were any other shaped clouds, but there weren't.
"So apart from seeing a real dragon, any other ideas what you want to do?" he asked curiously.
