Kennedy had decided to keep himself in the air. He shifted his weight to the right to avoid colliding with a classmate. As he turned directions he felt something strange with his broom. It was like if he suddenly grew heavier. Hmm, he just ate a simple breakfast that morning, so it couldn't be that.

As he leaned to the right to avoid a flying squirrel --that seemed to be laughing at them-- Kennedy felt something strange. Hmm. He briefly glanced back and did a double-back when he saw what was wrong with his broom.

THERE WAS A SQUIRREL RIDING HIS BROOM!

"Get off!" he said, still having a firm hold on the broom.

He risked another glance back and noticed the squirrel was just...sitting. It was getting a free ride! Kennedy leaned to the right, then left, then right and then left again. He wanted to shake the thing off, but it seemed to be stuck like glue.

Finally, he got an idea. Making sure no one was in his way, Kennedy leaned forward picking up more speed and then, all of the sudden he pulled the broom handle toward him, causing him to make a sudden stop.

Floooosh!

The poor squirrel flew above his head and into the crowd. HA! That's what you get for trying to hitch a free ride.
