His suspicions proved correct, when upon kicking off hard from the ground, the pair were immediately on him. Fortunately, Harry’s significantly slighter frame and faster broom made it difficult for the lumbering pair to stay on him for long. He zoomed away high into the air and across the grounds as far away from them as he could. While they weren’t able to keep up, they were able to swing their beater’s bats incredibly hard, and with an accuracy that Harry found surprising. In the end, Fred had to tail Harry around the pitch almost constantly in order to beat the bludgers away from him.
