Hermione surmises that games are afoot during the Intergalactic Quidditch Cup, and they involve team Mercury. She soon realizes that being head of the Ethics committee means little to Mercury's owner or the other members of his team.

Reviews for Quicksilver
And the plot thickens... Can't wait to see where this goes.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Thanks for the review!
Good start! I like the cup-within-a-cup use of the challenge theme.
The finally end up together and we don't get to see it. *pouts* I wish they allowed us to do epilogues.
LOL! What a lovely bow you have tied on our package, HW. I too, am glad your threats of an impending asteroid were not realized. =o) Because this is so much better.My fav part was Severus' jab at Lucius about his performance enhancer, I laughed out loud. Awesome job, dear.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Aww ... Thank you so much, Stef! You set it up brilliantly for us and made my job much easier. I had plans to write an alternate, meteorite-filled chapter to send to the team (just to be a smart-ass), but alas, I ran out of time. :-)Goooooo Mercury!
*Snort* Poor Lucius, being left out of the loop. Perhaps he can finagle his way into their tryst. =o)
Hmmm, I find it interesting that Percy was happy to see his wouldbe captor. But, I suppose, if she is a beauty, he could forgive her.
Excellent chapter, my dear. =o)
LOL Sounds like there is plenty of amusement and pleasure to come. :DI enjoyed the fact that the Saturnian VIP has better diction than many humans, that Lucius couldn't resist a bit of plotting of his own, and that enjoyed Severus and Lucius behaved more like Ron and Harry with Hermione having to cover their back-talk and giggling up with more sensible comments. That was fun.
Thanks for sharing. ^_^
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
She just can't seem to escape being part of a trio, can she? (Although I believe membership in this one shall prove much more satisfying.)Thank you so much for reading and leaving a review. We appreciate it!
The Saturnian would have made a good Slyterin with his plot to incite civil war between the Terrans, but he (and his terrorist group) lacked the intelligence to choose a proper kidnap target. Missed the mark big time with Percy. But in the end, all was well. The plot was uncovered and Hermione would be pleasured by two sexy wizards. Great finish to an inventive, always entertaining, funny story.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Thank you so much! I was nervous about tying up plot bits and leaving everyone with a satisfying end in less than 2,000 words. But it was fun to write, and that's the whole point of this competition, right?Thanks again for your lovely review and for taking the time to read. :-)
This has turned out to be an amazing venture! I love how you involved HP themes with larger interactions. The complexity of the Slytherin-ness was very well done as well. The only grip I have is that we didn't actually get to see any of the lemons! Maybe someone will write an epilogue? Holiday truffles to you all. Sara
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
I must admit I was a tad disappointed that I didn't get to the lemons: I do so love writing them. :-) I think a PWP epilogue is a fabulous idea. Thanks so much for the review and for taking the time to support Team Mercury!
Perfect ending. Maybe a bit short but I know you must kepp ut ubder 2000 words. Pity...
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
LOL - You know me, Snitchette: I could have kept going and going and going if not for the word count limit. :-)Thank you so much reading and for taking the time to support Team Mercury!
So the aliens wanted earth and thought we were careless with our stewardship? Ehhh, I'm not so much a fan of those plots. Although I did enjoy the story. It was a funny plot and had a happy ending for everyone involved.Oh, I just had a thought, what about Draco? He didn't get a happy ending, unless he won the game.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Given the scope and breadth of the tampering revealed, the Intergalactic Quidditch Committee had no choice but to declare all previous match results null. The games will be replayed, and Draco will have a chance to win unhindered by alien plots. (And Hermione will ensure his father is too busy to meddle with match outcomes this time.)Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to support Team Mercury with a review.
OMG hilarious! You cannot fathom the power of the C.U.N.T.Superbly done!
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Tee hee. You crafted a brilliant acronym—how could I resist abusing it some more? Thanks for leaving a review, m'dear! Go Team Mercury!!
Nice ending - great work!
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Thank you so much! Team Mercury appreciates your support!
Love the way you tied up the loose ends, hoggie! :D
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Aww, thanks so much, love! Go Team Mercury!
Ah foolish Saturnian, he gave up so much info so easily! And to think all because he didn't like looking at the sun through his rings - oh yes and our natural resources. Good jab at global warming and depletions of said resources.
And what a nice, happy ending.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
He did reveal the plot rather easily, but that might have been due to the probity probe Hermione mentioned. *shudders* *cackles*Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to support Team Mercury by leaving this review. We appreciate it!
For all the plotting of the men, it's the woman who still has the best plan. Great ending to a fun story!
“Let me guess,” said Hermione. “The Committee to Undermine the Nations of Terra.”He turned his haughty expression to her. “Our name commands respect throughout the universe. You cannot fathom the power of the C.U.N.T.”*Tears of laughter*Priceless!
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
LOL! The aliens obviously need a better marketing department ... Whoever thought THAT was a smart acronym? *smiles*Thanks so much for reading and leaving a review. We had a lot of fun with this story!
How can a woman resist a man who rescues her pussy? ;)
I'll be ever grateful you didn't follow through with the threat of an asteroid *grins*Wonderful conclusion to this really crazy fic! *applauds*
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
I had planned on writing a second "ending," just to tease you. Good thing I ran out of time. *snrt* Thanks for the review, love!

YOU ARE.
wait. that doesnt sound right.
Author's Response: Um. You don't!
Thanks for the stars, mate. I'm like, chuffed. And stuff.
All's well that ends well! Creepy monster caught, two men wrapped around her finger. I'd say it's been a good day.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
I certainly wouldn't mind trading places with her! Lucky witch ...Thanks so much for the review,
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
!
If we give you lots of love to help you win, do we get an epilogue showcasing the details of this new sport? I know, shameless begging doesn't help. Anyway, nice end to a fun story.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Tee hee! Actually, I am not opposed to a bit of bribery! Help us get into the Finals, and I shall write you a lemon-filled epilogue. :-) Thanks so much for the stars and lovely review. Team Mercury appreciates you!
A good wrapping up. United they stand, but no longer on ceremony.
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Indeed. Thanks for review points!
And she gets both of them. Excellent!
Response from Mercury (Author of Quicksilver)
Now that's what I call happily ever after. :-) Thanks for the review points, teammate! Go Mercury!!
