Then she was zooming towards her. Goodness! Haddie was practically a blur! Rachel gave a small squeak and quickly maneuvered her broomstick to avoid any collision. Really, the other Eagle was a little speed demon. "I am not!'' she called in response to the jab as she turned on her broomstick to follow.

She zoomed through the first hoop after directing her broom towards the left since the hoop moved in that direction. Rachel was careful to keep a sharp eye out on these hoops. Once she banged her left shoulder on one because she was too slow to shift direction. She didn't feel anything thanks to the safety measures Tanner had put in however.

"I'm going to catch up with you, Haddie!'' Possibly not but she would try to.

Haddie laughed as she rolled through the next hoop. "No you won't!" She hollered back, letting the wind carry her words to Rachel. She might not have been going nearly as fast as she was through the easy course, but she was still hauling pretty well, Hadley suffered a clip or two against a hoop now and again thanks to her speed, but overall she was doing quiet well for someone who just got on a broom for the first time less than an hour ago.

Still this course was much trickier than the last one and it was only a matter of time before Haddie's novice skills and need for speed caught up with her. Disaster struck around the tenth hoop. She knew she wasn't going to miss the hoop's ring seconds before hitting it, and managed to twist herself around so that she, and not Charlie took the impact. It was instinct mostly. She was flesh and bone and all things that regenerate and can be healed. Charlie was wood, and wood splinters.

The impact jolted her, but didn't really hurt much, despite how fast she was going when she hit the moving hoop. And then broom and rider both plummeted to the cushy, charmed ground below. If it phased Haddie at all, it wasn't for long. Almost immediately she was back on her feet, dusting herself off and mounting Charlie again as her best friend soared above her. She was back in the air and zipping though the hoops again in seconds, albeit at a slightly reduced speed this time.
