"Just what I always wanted. To make a fool of myself on a broomstick in front of Malfoy." we had been looking forward to learning to fly more than anything else and neither of us liked the idea of having to share the experience with the Slytherines. While Malfoy and his cronies usually left me alone, I didn't like the way they treated my friends.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BshBUMigF

"You don't know that you'll make a fool of yourself," said Ron reasonably. "Anyway, I know Malfoy's always going on about how good he is at Quidditch, but I bet that's all talk." 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjrSYfE1we

We all looked up as owls soared into the hall. A barn owl brought Neville a small package from his grandmother. He opened it excitedly and showed us a glass ball the size of a large marble, which seemed to be full of white smoke. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEZ5xTSCG8

"It's a Remembrall!" he explained. "Gran knows I forget things - this tells you if there's something you've forgotten to do. Look, you hold it tight like this and if it turns red - oh..." His face fell, because the Remembrall had suddenly glowed scarlet,"You've forgotten something..." 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa19QgXsNn

Neville was trying to remember what he'd forgotten when Draco Malfoy,who was passing the Gryffindor table, snatched the Remembrall out of his hand. Harry, Ron, and I jumped to our feet but Professor McGonagall, who could spot trouble quicker than any teacher in the school, was there in a flash. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHYhS95vFA

At three-thirty that afternoon, Harry and I, along with the other Gryffindors, hurried down the front steps onto the grounds for our first flying lesson. It was a clear, breezy day, and the grass rippled under our feet as we marched down the sloping lawns toward a smooth, flat lawn on the opposite side of the grounds to the forbidden forest, whose trees were swaying darkly in the distance. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IZe8sObCT

The Slytherins were already there, and so were twenty broomsticks lying in neat lines on the ground. The teacher, Madam Hooch, arrived as we approached the brooms. She had short, gray hair, and yellow eyes like a hawk. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxA5kIKw23l

"Well, what are you all waiting for?" she barked. "Everyone stand by a broomstick. Come on, hurry up." I glanced down at my broom. It was old and some of the twigs stuck out at odd angles."Stick out your right hand over your broom," called Madam Hooch at the front, "and say 'Up!"' 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqDmVXjnrM

438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOLIHpT8nb
"UP" everyone shouted. My broom jumped into my hand at once, but it was one of the few that did. Hermione's had simply rolled over on the ground, and Neville's hadn't moved at all. I Laughed as Ron's smacked him in the face. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp9XxPRIUt

Madam Hooch then showed us how to mount the brooms without sliding off the end, and walked up and down the rows correcting our grips. I giggled in delight when she told Malfoy he'd been doing it wrong for years. The pompous git! He'd been boasting all week about how great he was at flying. It was nice to see his ego knocked down a few sizes.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiBAGC4mS5

"Now, when I blow my whistle, kick off from the ground, hard," said Madam Hooch. "Keep your brooms steady, rise a few feet, and then come straight back down by leaning forward slightly. On my whistle - three - two -" 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbBfwNcoa1
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlLQlX6Rt9
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUSEyQHfzC
But Neville, nervous and jumpy and frightened of being left on the ground, pushed off hard before the whistle had touched Madam Hooch'slips. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxWCLDpctv

"Come back, boy!" she shouted, but Neville was rising straight up like a cork shot out of a bottle - twelve feet - twenty feet...till suddenly he slipped sideways off the broom and -WHAM - a thud and a nasty crack and Neville lay face down on the grass in a heap. His broomstick was still rising higher and higher, and started to drift lazily toward the forbidden forest and out of sight. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRT2bwk4k5

Madam Hooch was bending over Neville, her face as white as his."Broken wrist," I heard her mutter. "Come on, boy - it's all right, up you get." She turned to the rest of the class."None of you is to move while I take this boy to the hospital wing! Youleave those brooms where they are or you'll be out of Hogwarts before you can say 'Quidditch.' Come on, dear."Neville, his face tear-streaked, clutching his wrist, hobbled off with Madam Hooch, who had her arm around him. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad24PGj2X4

"Ooh, sticking up for Longbottom?" said Pansy Parkinson, a hard-faced Slytherin girl. "Never thought you'd like fat little crybabies, Katrina." I felt arms wrap around me as I was about to go over and punch her. I glared back at Harry.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWDcnpBE1R

438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWJ7Gflkfg
"Look!" said Malfoy, darting forward and snatching something out of the grass. "It's that stupid thing Longbottom's gran sent him."The Remembrall glittered in the sun as he held it up. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQeJNEmsZP

"Give it here!" I yelled, but Malfoy had leapt onto his broomstick and taken off. He hadn't been lying, he could fly well. Hovering level with the topmost branches of an oak he called, "Come and get it, you two!" 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyzVwzVV9h

"No!" shouted Hermione. "Madam Hooch told us not to move -you'll get us all into trouble." We ignored her. Blood was pounding in my ears and I wanted nothing more than to knock Malfoy off his broom. I kicked hard against the ground and up, up, up I soared; air rushed through my hair, and my robes whipped out behind me...438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyAwoHYoKQ

In a rush of fierce joy I realized that this was easier than I'd thought it would be. It was wonderful. I pulled the broomstick up a little to take it even higher, and heard screams and gasps of the students back on the ground and an admiring whoop from Ron. Harry and I turned our broomsticks sharply to face Malfoy in midair. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyDQxlcvLl

"Oh, yeah?" said Malfoy, trying to sneer, but looking worried. I leaned forward and grasped the broom tightly in both hands, and it shot toward Malfoy like a javelin. Malfoy only just got out of the way in time; and I made a sharp about-face and held the broom steady. A few people below were clapping. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnnHGN3ebF

"Catch it if you can, then!" he shouted, and he threw the glass ball high into the air. I dashed after it and caught it, enjoying the wide look of shock on his face. The next thing I knew, he was coming straight at me and I tore off in the opposite direction. 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxolBxPivIU

"Harry, catch!" I shouted as I tossed the ball in his direction and avoided Malfoy. He gave up and streaked back towards the ground as I saw Harry's hand reach out and grasp the tiny ball a foot from the ground. I pointed my own broom downwards and enjoyed the rush, waiting till the last moment to pull my broom straight, toppling gently onto the grass.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX49q79vSt

"That's enough, Mr. Weasley. Potter, Katrina, follow me, now." I caught sight of Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle's triumphant faces as we left, walking numbly in Professor McGonagall's wake as she strode towardthe castle. We were going to be expelled, I just knew it.

Professor McGonagall was sweeping along without even looking at us; we had to jog to keep up. Now I'd done it. I hadn't even lasted two weeks. I'd be packing my bags in ten minutes. What would the they say at the Orphanage when I turned up months early? 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3yqOSBeIf

"Follow me, you three," said Professor McGonagall, and we marched on up the corridor, Wood looking curiously at Harry and I. "In here."Professor McGonagall ushered us into a classroom that was empty except for Peeves, who was busy writing rude words on the blackboard."Out, Peeves!" she barked. Peeves threw the chalk into a bin, which clanged loudly, and he swooped out cursing.

"Well, a second's there to take over if you die," said Ron casually,getting started at last on his cold pie. Catching the look on our faces, he added quickly, "But people only die in proper duels, you know,with real wizards. The most you and Malfoy'll be able to do is send sparks at each other. Neither of you knows enough magic to do any real damage. I bet he expected you to refuse, anyway." 438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVrNsC445j

Hermione stormed off as I turned to look at Harry and Ron. "That was really mean, you two. She was just trying to look out for you, besides...she does have a point. It's really risky..." I said.438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLP2dkBsNd
