SPOILER!!: Rach

The final course was almost impossible for a muggle-born who had only been on a broom for less than an hour. Haddie lead the way from the middle course with Rachel flying along next to her. When the reached the entrance, Haddie stopped and hovered for a long moment and watched the course. Finally she nodded looked over at Rachel. "Ready?"

Haddie entered the course, following Rachel at swift, but noticeably slower pace. She wasn't exactly ready for this one, but was determined nonetheless to try it at least once. Haddie made it through the first ring, and WHAP! Rachel clipped the moving ring but made it through. Haddie on the other hand took the full hit and tumbled off Charlie. Like she had in the middle course, the Californian eagle dusted herself off and climbed back on her broom.

It took her three more tries to make it through that hoop, and Haddie managed to do a bit better for the rest of the course. Her best friend, on the other hand, was doing significantly better than she was. Rachel clipped and bumped the hoops quite a bit, but none of them knocked her off her broom. Haddie got knocked off her broom seven more times, for a total of eleven, before she finished the course. There wasn't a hoop or pole or ring that she didn't hit, bump or clip, but still... she did better than she thought she would have. So she was happy.

When they finished, Haddie landed near Professor Tanner with a triumphant, overjoyed grin on her face. "Professor Tanner? If you ever replace Charlie here, can I adopt him?" Sure he wasn't the newest or best broom that was available to buy in Diagon Alley, but Haddie didn't care. She and the broom were two peas in a pod. She felt partially like the broom was a friend that knew her all her life and partially like he was an extension of herself. She couldn't imagine finding a broom that fit her personality better than Charlie did. And thus if at all possible, Haddie would love Charlie to be her broom.

Why had the time zoomed by just as they had been doing on their brooms? "Perhaps we should. There is no way that we would have time to do both.'' But Haddie had asked a positively brilliant question. Rachel looked towards Tanner hopefully. Please say yes, Professor, please say yes! Somewhere in her mind, she knew the woman might give a positive response as she would like to see her students get better with the broomsticks.
