Now what? Do I have to move?, she wanted to ask but finally she was glad she hadn't. Gee, Gwen, what a stupid question, she thought.

Her hand started shaking and, because of her fabulous control and balance, the broom started shaking and moving from side to side. Great. That's just great...How was she supposed to fly, when she couldn't even keep her balance on the ground?

'Umm...are there some moves or you just...go with it?', she asked puzzled.
Ahh. Someone else that looked like they were having a little trouble. Mounting his broom, Finlay flew over to where she was, with her broom wobbling a little. Uh oh. Not good. "Just relax." Finlay smiled, reaching out, and grasping her broom with a hand, just to stop if shaking. "If it keeps shaking you'll probably fall off, and thats not good." Not at all. Professor V. would probably kill him if someone fell off.

"It's hard at first.." He'd learnt the hard way when he was little. "Just try to relax, and let the broom do the hard work. You just need to direct it when to go....like steer it." Without a steering wheel. "Why don't we fly around slowly for a bit?" So she could get used to it. That'd work right?
