Ability is nothing without Opportunity | | Creativity is Intelligence having FUN
Steelsheen struggled to stay on her broom by gripping it harder.She thought it was getting better because the slick seemed to be diminishing the longer she stayed on it. When Wystan hollered at them to start flying in a circle five feet off the ground it took all her willpower to bite back a reply How are we supposed to fly when we could barely stay on you witch?! Steelsheen fumed, hating every passing minute of the class.
Slowly she moved the broom forward, gaining height as she went along. Just as she was halfway forming the circle she noticed a trail of hearts and fairies coming from her broom "What the....?" she gaped as she heard someone shriek and fall with a sickening thud. Steelsheen spun her head to see Wystan on the ground with her broken broom. Steelsheen guffawed, for all the nasty venom that came from this professor seeing her in a heap on the ground was a sight worth losing 55 points for. As Wystan walked away sputtering in anger she noticed how the broom handle was stuck to her hands and robes. Then she stopped laughing. She tried to lift her hands off her broom and realized they too were stuck on it. Uh oh.
Steelsheen studied her predicament. She's five feet off the ground, her hands stuck on her broom as it sputtered Disney cartoons. She leaned forward for a descent but moved too abruptly as she slammed pole-end first on the ground, flipped over and landed on the broom end, snapping it in two. "Ooff!" She gasped, catching her breath. Well at least she's on the ground now and her right hand was free, sorta, as she looked with the broomstick stuck on her palm. She reached into her robes for her wand, but couldnt get it out without poking her face with the broken broom end. Owww she yelped as hit her lips. Barely able to hold her wand with her fingers, she pointed her wand to her left palm "Glisseo!" she said tapping the broom handle, immediately the broomstick came off her left hand and her robes. In turn she did the same for her right hand. Now freed of the Ministry approved disaster sticks, she snorted at them in victorius contempt, took up her bookbag and left the Pitch.
