After receiving a note from Xiomara about her absence for awhile, she also informed him that he should hold a practice for the team since try-outs went so successful the beginning of this term. It was early Sunday morning, the perfect day to go out and have a few laps around the pitch before getting the members to practice their positions.
Maybe today Nathaniel could get the team to play a bit of quidditch, even if they lack the opposing team. He left his dorm to shower up and dry before returning to dress up in some comfortable clothes and write notes to each member of the team, informing them all that practice was being held this mid-morning. He then sent his own owl with the notes before leaving the dorm.
Grabbing his broom from underneath his bed, along with his gloves and pads, he left the tower and headed down the corridors until he finally left the front doors. From there, he slipped on his leather gloves and pads over his elbows and knees and then mounted his broom. Why walk when he could fly to the pitch anyway? He made it to the quidditch shed in less than several seconds.
Nathaniel unlocked the door so that he could retrieve the chest full of quidditch balls. Instead of lugging it out to the middle of the pitch, he used his wand and a simple wrist movement while muttering 'Wingardium Leviosa' and had the chest follow him. The chest dropped easily onto the field and he only took the lock off, but kept the chest closed. He sat on his broom, which hovered over the chest, and waited for the rest of the members to show up.
[[OOC: Xiomara asked me to start a practice for the team since she'll be busy for awhile. But she will try to be around when she can. Until then, I'll hold it since I'm Co-Captain to the team.]]
