She would get it, though. She was sure of that. Ever-so-slightly, since her normal range was till producing turns that were a bit too sharp, Haddie angled the handle downward. She and Charlie began a slow spiral down. That felt safe and comfortable almost immediately, so, naturally, Haddie angled the broom down a bit more.

Every time, the Californian felt safe and comfortable with her current speed and angle of descent, she angled the broom down more, and leaned in more, picking up speed, until finally she was rocketing toward the ground in a steep spiral. The air whipped past her face, stinging her cheeks and freezing her nose and ears, but she didn't care. This was too amazing to let anything, even the cold, bother her.

The ground rushed at them. Haddie pulled out of the spiral and the dive. She had given herself fifteen feet of leeway to pull out of the dive before splattering on the ground, but only needed four. Rachel was still hovering in the same place Haddie'd been before her little steering adventure happened. "Hurry up Slowpoke!" The wind carried her voice as Haddie zoomed past the other girl, not stopping at all.

Haddie sped past the the first obstacle set, still not slowing down, and guided the broom into a tight circle around the course. Once she was back in front of the course, she pulled up on the handle, sitting and leaning back as she did. The broom stopped so fast that Haddie almost tumbled off. When she recovered though, she grinning madly. "That was incredible," she said, patting the handle again. The Eagle watched the others fly around, weaving through the other obstacle course as she hovered, waiting for Rachel to catch up. "Sorry, that time I didn't mean to leave you behind...just needed to get used to handling a broom." It was her first time after all. There were some issues, sure, but she overall she was doing great, she thought.


Rachel watched Haddie with a sort of pride. Her best friend was getting better and better already. She was proud of her. Admittedly, she became worried when the dives occurred. Rachel felt her pulse rate increase and found herself holding her breath at that time. "You're positively brilliant at this, Haddie,'' the girl called as the other first year streaked past her. She then zoomed closer. "I know you didn't. It seems your broom is just as excited as you are.''

Still smiling, Rachel looked towards the first group of hoops. Haddie had just zoomed around them so she reasoned they were ready to tackle them. Rachel aimed for the left. "Catch me!'' Like the time they were canaries, she took off to race her friend. These were the stationary hoops so they would pose no threat.

One, two, three hoops she zipped through, her ponytails flapping happily in the breeze. Was her best friend on her tail?
