"Next is flying class, with Gryffindor again, fun," Moon said as slowly walked out on to the field with a broom in hand. "Why do I even have to take this class? I already know how to use a broomstick my mom taught me, I've even been on the back of a aethonan."

"You've what?" Star said looking back at Moon who has been walking slightly behind her because all she was doing was complaining.

"Um. . . Long story let's just say my mother's like being high, or well high in the air," Moon chuckled lightly as she rubbed the back of her neck.

"Moms? You have more then one mother?" Star said slowing down so she could be equal with Moon.

"Yeah? It there a problem with that?" Moon said confidently. She awkwardly brought her hands up to play with them because she was unsure of what she had just gotten herself into.

"No there isn't at all, that's awesome. What is it like?" Star said excitedly. Moon relaxed greatly, that could have gone a totally different way.

"Well they both are awesome, Fern, one of my mothers, is rarely home though. She usually is only home for late dinner then she goes straight to bed and leaves before I wake up. Alexa, my other mother, is stuck having to watch the rest of the house. We have Daisy to help but she isn't the best with children," Moon chuckled as they were almost at the field.

Madam Hooch arrived shortly after they did. She had short, grey hair and yellow eyes, she seemed to remind Moon of a hawk. Which was very fitting since she was the flying teacher.

Everybody walked up next to a broomstick and started to shout "up" at them. Moon lazily called up and the broom went straight up into her hand.

"How did you do that?" Star asked impatiently as she called once more at her broomstick which seemed to be ignoring her.

"LOTS of practice, take a deep breath and say it with a lot more confidence, that'll help," Moon stated as she twirled her broom in her hand.

Star did as told and the broom flew right up and into her hand. She mentally gave herself congratulations and twirled in a circle before looking at Moon who was silently chuckling at her.

"See, it isn't too hard after you know the trick, now flying is harder, I still haven't perfected it yet and I've been flying since forever," Moon said rubbing the back of her neck slightly embarrassedly.

Madam Hooch was about to blow her whistle to signal they could take off when a Gryffindor boy took off too soon. He rose up shakely about 30 feet before falling off of his broom with a crack. He broom flew off into the distance out of sight.

Madame Hooch immediately tended to Neville and hearded him off the field to bring him to the hospital wing. This left the whole class unsupervised.

"Look!" Shouted Draco as he picked up the boy's Remembrall that he must have dropped.

"Give it here, Malfoy," Harry said quietly at Draco causing many faces to face him.

Draco took off into the air and teased Harry with the Remembrall. Moon could tell that he was trying to get Harry into the air. After a few seconds, Harry was in the air as well chasing after Draco.

"Draco Malfoy verses the great Harry Potter in a Quidditch game. They both are decent. Wasn't Potter raised by Muggles. Impressive, I think he is better than me and I bet he's never been on a broom before," Moon chuckled as she slunk on to Star's shoulder.

Star nodded in return to Moon who stopped leaning on her shoulder. Moon twirled her broomstick but dropped it in fear when she heard someone yell.

"HARRY POTTER!" Shouted McGonagall as she sped walked onto the field. Soon after, he was dragged off of the field by her leaving the rest of the class speechless.

"He's good to be expelled for sure," Moon chuckled to herself as she sat on to the grass.
