A large mass of first years huddled together, almost instinctively. Leaves had begun to fall, and it was obvious that the crisp autumn air was beginning to settle in. Madam Hooch had yet to arrive, and the usual chatter had begun to fill the silence.

Libby, who had ended up standing next to a black-haired girl about her own height, decided to strike up a conversation while waiting for Madam Hooch. "So, is this going to be your first time flying, or have you flown before?"

"I've flown a few times! My mum has an old Silver Arrow around the house that I started using a few months ago." Amanda responded, barely containing her excitement. Flying was one of the few things that she didn't have to study for- it just was one of those things you do.

"You?"

"I've always liked flying. My mum was on the team when she went here so she'd go out into the countryside and fly with me all the time." Libby smiled fondly. "It's so much fun... oh! I'm Libby, by the way. Libby Brown."

"Amanda Potter. It's nice to meet you!" Amanda took another look at the crowd of first years, frowning.

"I wonder where the teacher is-"


"Liiine up, line up!" Madam Rolanda Hooch's voice clearly cut through the chatter as she made her way through the clustered group. "If you look in front of you there are twenty rooms already prepared for flying- stand to the left of whichever you choose... Mister Malfoy please wipe that sneer of your face."

"Put your right hand over your broom and simply say 'up'."

Serenity had been around brooms before at home, and while she wasn't a prodigy or anything (she definitely didn't fly for sport), she had grown familiar with them.

She stepped up to a broom, and said "Up!" firmly. It wiggled a bit, and Serenity frowned.
"Come on." She clicked her tongue a couple of times, and said "Up!" once more. The broom soared up into her hand, and Serenity beamed at it.

Mel poked her head forward and looked up and down the line. She glanced down at the broom -- courtesy of the school -- and held out her shaking hand. "Up." Mel hated flying. She'd done it a few times before with Angel actually riding the thing, of course, and she'd nearly wet her underskirts. "U-up." She faltered.

Serenity grinned over at Mel, who she was standing next to. "Doing well, I see." She teased, holding the broom tightly in case it decided to bolt.

"Have you ever ridden a broom? I don't remember you saying anything before.."

Mel made a face at Serenity, then looked back at the broom, swallowing a knot in her throat. "Up," she commanded. The broom waggled a bit, then slowly rose into her grasp. "There. What."

Libby stuck her hand out over the broom and commanded, "Up!" It wiggled around and the handle lifted slightly, then plopped back onto the grass. "Ugh. Come on! Up!" It shot up into her outstretched hand, and she grinned. "Alright!"

"What?" Serenity repeated Mel's words, feigning an innocent expression. "Oh, you got your broom up. Nice. Do you have brooms at home?"

Amanda quickly glanced down the line before commanding her broom- "Up!" Quickly, albeit shakily, Amanda's broom shot up.

"Alright now hover carefully, do not go to high u-- MISTER LONGBOTTOM." Almost predictably, Neville kicked off too early and lost control, resulting in an accident that ended with his wrist breaking. Madam Hooch pushed through the small group forming around him.

"No one dare leave the ground without me. Madam Pomfrey should be able to fix this up quickly! Just a broken wrist! If you'll excuse us, I'll be right back."

With Neville in hand, Madam Hooch made her way out. Almost immediately a snotty, yet broken Slytherin, and the Golden Boy began a spat that ended with the Golden Boy being escorted off the premise and into fame.

Mel didn't even mount her broom through the fiasco. "That was fun," she remarked.

Serenity giggled at Mel, and sat her broom back on the ground.
"Maybe they'll whip him!" She said, with a tone of excitement to her voice. "Still, he really should learn keep it together. It was just a Rememberall.." She shrugged.

"You think we'll still get to learn to fly?"
