The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas. William remained close to the ground as he began flying again, keeping his distance to a good five feet, his speed normal for him. Even if the grass was bouncy he was still too nervous to fly faster, and he knew if he had any chances of getting the hang of this contraption he had to try. He watched as the older ravenclaw began doing weird dance moves in the air with the other Ravenclaw and he chuckled, his body shaking the broom. Gripping it tighter he stopped and leveled himself out.
He knew he had to be brave but that inner voice never stopped uttering words in his mind and he was beginning to believe it. shaking his head he sat up straighter on the broom, coming to a slow stop before sighing. Okay, here we go he thought as he raised the front end of the broom up and watched the sky come closer to him.. at least it wasn't the ground he mused keeping his eyes on the tip of the broom as he climbed to 20 feet before leveling out and attempting to fly in a straight line. He realized he was going too fast and stopped suddenly, his broom bucking back and forth a few times. Closing his eyes he held on, waiting for the drop. It never came though as the broom leveled out and he soon found himself 20 feet above the ground, perfectly still.
his heart was beginning to pound and he knew he had to get off soon or face a panic attack in front of everyone and that would so NOT do. Lowering the front of his broom slowly he watched as the ground came up, inching towards him. Sighing as he reached the less-than-a-foot mark he leveled out the broom once more and carefully touched down. It was than he realized how badly he was shaking. Next time no higher than 5 feet he told himself shaking his head as he crossed his arms standing still.
