I glanced at him like he was insane. "I'll be helping you don't worry." He calmed me down chuckling and grinned at me widely, almost pushing me towards it.

Still a bit hesitating I sat down on the glider, my clothing changing to the same skin tight suit Kyrre had on. My fingers found the small button on the side, locking my feet in place and securing my position.

I took a deep breath and he patted my shoulder in empathy before I leaned forward, laying down on the pads, putting my hands into the gloves, the glasses immediately showing up again, information about the glider popping up in the left corner of my sight.

The control mechanism instantly adjusted around my arms, while I, still hesitating, grabbed the controller inside the gloves and immediately noticed how the glider reacted, slightly moving up.

I tried to keep my arms as calm as possible, almost forgetting to breath. "Looks good tho." I suddenly heard Lucas' voice from the side and twitched, causing the glider to shoot backwards a few metres.

Both laughed while I was trying to calm down again, giving them a angry glance. "Okay okay..." I muttered, slightly pushing my hands forward like I saw it by Kyrre. Just say if you need help eh? Fynn suddenly said, his voice surprising me again, that I drifted a bit to the side.

"Dangit Fynn!" I scolded him quietly hissing, concentrating on the glider again. He just chuckled and I glanced at the system information again, slowly getting a feeling on how to keep it stabilized. Kyrre and Lucas were standing a few metres away from me, watching me closely.

I took a deep breath, noticing that I was holding it since I've been sitting on it. "Okay." I whispered to myself, slowly moving my hands up and a bit forward, so I was slowly flying up and towards them.

Kyrre nodded widely smiling, giving me a thumbs up, while Lucas was still looking sceptical, is arms crossed and his head slightly tilted.

Suddenly I noticed that Kyrre didn't told me where the break is on this thing and I opened my mouth to ask one of the three but Fynn already gave me the answer. The break is there where it's in all other vehicles,under your feet.

"Do I look like I've ever been in the position to drive a car or so?" I hissed quietly, closing my eyes for a second. Nope. I rolled my eyes before slowly pushing my heels down, noticing that it was actually slowing down.

Someone was knocking on the glass cover and I glanced up, seeing Lucas standing next to the glider. His voice was clearly audible even if the helmet was covering my ears.

"At the controller, there's a small button, that's where you can get out of the gloves and drive back the extra glass thing." He explained and I actually found that button, pressing it and sitting up again, while the glass was slowly disappearing.

"It looked quite okay for your first time flying with one of these things though. You seem to have a pretty good sense for balance." Lucas leaned on the glider, looking at me.

I smiled shyly, taking my helmet off and pushing some strains of hair back behind my ear. "Well, I'll check what Lachlan is doing, then I'll show you some more tricks you can do with that thing." He smiled before turning around, jogging over to the helicopter where I first met them.

I raised one eyebrows, before putting on my helmet again and leaning forward. A bit nervous, I started the system again, hovering up and slowly by a speed of 5km/h flying over to the helicopter.

When I arrived, Lucas stepped out of the helicopter and glanced up, finding me two metres above the ground and started smiling widely. He raised one thump up before he suddenly grabbed something out of thin air and throwing it into the ground before he jumped into the air with a backflip, landing on the glider that appeared out of nowhere, immediately flying up to me.
