Professor Vindictus was pacing back and forth as he carefully watched the students perform the most simple and basic of all flying skills. Then he heard a Hufflepuff girl shouting at the school broom she selected for the lesson.

Oh yeah. That was it, she swung in roundabouts, from excedingly angry to pleading. And now was a pleading moment, pleeeasssse broom she cried get UP!

Back to angry it was..

Oh, she did NOT just insult the broom.

"YOU!" bellowed Vindictus. "Just insulted that broom. It's no wonder that it's not following your ill-mannered command!"

He stared intently at her. "My instructions were to use a firm voice. At no time did I say to shout at the defenseless broom! Five points from Hufflepuff for insulting the broom. Now calm down and try it again . . . without shouting or using an angry voice."

Vindictus wanted to say something else but then he saw a Slytherin first year who wasn't following his instructions and he marched over to where she was standing.

"You must clearly be suffering from a severe case of ear wax buildup. Five points from Slytherin for not following instructions," Vindictus replied irately. "My instructions are for you to use a firm and clear voice. Nonverbal spells do not work on broomsticks. I suggest you put the broom back on the ground and do it again correctly."

He then heard Daichi call for help and walked over to where the Slytherin student was standing.

Daichi looked from left to right as students started to shout up everywhere. He looked down at the old schoolbroom in front of him and held his right hand over the broom. He already tried out for the Slytherin Quidditch team and had attended three try outs and je thought he was a decend flyer. Must be in his genes. So having to shout a small broom up was nothing right?

"UUUUUP!" Daichi shouted at his broom.

he waited and...nothing -_-;

Whaaat?! y-ya! something was TERRIBLE wrong with this broom! "Up!" nothing "Up please?" nothing. He sighed and pouted his lips. The slytherin looked towards the Professor and raised his hand. "Professooooooor! This broom won't go UP!" All of the sudden he felt something in his hand and as he looked down he saw his broom had flown up. "WAAAAH! SO COOl!"

Just as he was within two feet of Daichi, Vindictus saw that the broom had finally flown up into the Slytherin's hand. "Next time, don't shout at it," he warned the student.

Satisfied that most of the students were finished performing the most basic step, he turned around and continued with the next set of instructions.

"Mount your broom and keep both feet firmly on the ground. Grasp the handle with both hands - just avoid strangling the handle with a tight grip. Oh, and anyone who goes airborne will lose points."
