SPOILER!!: Vindictus, yo!

Okay, so no genie. Huffing, Sarah discarded her lamp on the grass and grabbed the front edge of the carpet. Turning her head to listen to the instructions, she wrinkled her nose at the twelve feet, not as fast as a racing broom part. Surprisingly she wouldn't have minded going higher and faster, now she was completely over her fear of heights. Flying class was brilliant therapy.

Wiggling her bum back a bit, to make sure she was far enough away from the sides, Sarah gripped firmly and said the magic word - "UP!" Immediately she shot straight up into the air, jerking slightly as she hit the maximum twelve feet. Now for the fun. Grin spreading out across her face, Sarah pulled the right side of the carpet, and banked that way, around a few of the other hovering students, and shot off around the pitch. "Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!"

Grab the front edge of the carpet with both hands and curl it up towards you."

The carpet gave a small twitch and slowly rose two feet above the ground.

"You know my answer, Jacob, so don't go too far up in the air." "These are so-called 'training carpets' and they'll only reach a height of twelve feet. Also, they won't go super fast like a racing broom." "If you're comfortable enough, go ahead and have fun flying around. For the adventurous, you can actually get your carpet to hover in the air and stand on it! It's pretty awesome!" To make his point, Vindictus took off on his magic carpet and reached the twelve foot mark in the air. He carefully stood up and put his hands on his hips. "You can't do this on a broom without falling off! Now show me how you can fly on these carpets!" Okay, so no genie.
