Hey! Sorry, I've been kinda busy lately, writing a new fanfic and a possible new one with school work piled on top. Enjoy!

CHAPTER FIVE: FIRST FLIGHT

"FLYING LESSONS!" Callie said spinning around the halls. "And I can't believe they're allowing all four houses to be together this year!"

"I take it she's excited about flying lessons…" Erica said.

"Gee, you think?" Nick said sarcastically. Callie continued spinning until she made everyone dizzy.

"Stand still." Albus said grabbing Callie by the waist. She stopped in her tracks.

"So dizzy…" Callie said as she ran to the bushes. A moment later, the sound of vomiting could be heard.

"You couldn't have done that sooner?" Nick said.

"Are you okay, Nick?" Erica said to her fellow Ravenclaw, "You've never acted like that before."

"I'm fine…" Nick walked ahead of them. Albus and Erica looked at each other, and then at Nick, then at Callie, who was walking over to them.

"No more spinning for you." Albus said.

"Come on, Callie." Erica put her arm around her best friend, "Let's go to flying lessons."

A woman stood in the middle of the flying field. She has cinnamon brown hair and blue eyes.

"Welcome students!" said the flying instructor, "I am Madame Blake, and I'll be your flying instructor for the year. Everyone to a place, hurry up!"

The students ran up to their places. In each spot, a broom lay on the right hand side.

"Alright," said Madame Blake, "Place your right hand over your broom and say up."

"UP!" Everyone repeated. Albus's broom immediately flew into his hand, while everyone took a try or two to reach their hands.

"Mount your brooms and kick off. I don't want anyone flying off higher than needed." Scal looked over at Albus, who laughed embarrassingly.

"Hey, guys," Albus said to Nick, Erica and Callie "Let's race to the top of Gryffindor Tower."

"You just want to freak out James and Rose, don't you?" Callie said.

"Yep!" Albus kicked off, his friends following him to Gryffindor Tower, but Nick remained a few feet below them, with a god-damn fear of heights.

"What the f #$?!" James yelled when he saw his brother waving thought the window.

"Albus!" shouted Callie from below, "Come down! Before you fall!"

"I'm not going to get hurt," Albus said confidently, "Flying is in my blood."

"Come on Al!" yelled Erica, "You're going to get hurt!"

"I'm fine!" Albus said, "Just watch!"

As he rose higher and higher, Albus began to lose balance and toppled off the broom.

Nick looked up and saw the Slytherin racing toward the ground. He pulled his wand from his cloak and pointed at him. "Wingradium Leviosa!"

Albus shut his eyes tightly as he descended to the ground, waiting for the pain or death. But it never came. He opened one of his eyes and saw he was hovering two inches off the ground, as his friends landed, the charm wore off and he landed on his face.

"I told you, you would get hurt." Erica teased.

"Well, you were right. Maybe you're a seer." Albus laughed. A hard slap came across his face. It was from Callie.

"You're such an idiot." She said. "Because you went that high you could've died!"

"I know, but I am usually able to fly that high without falling off."

"You didn't fall off by accident," said Nick, "Someone tried to throw you off."

"We all saw it happen." Callie said, "He fell off on accident."

"Not from my perspective. Something hit him in the back, and I was able to retrieve it." Nick pulled something from his pocket. It was a small, green rock.

"The only question left is who threw it."

"It has to be someone who wants us gone, out of the picture." Erica said, "Probably because we want to look for the missing students."

"Students?" asked Albus "I thought only that Hufflepuff girl was missing."

"Not anymore, this morning, a boy from Ravenclaw house was missing."

"Who is kidnapping all these students?!" Callie shouted.

End Chapter Five

Sorry this chapter's short, I had run out of ideas. Anyway, the flight instructor is also the mother of one of the characters which will be introduced later. Anyway, who is kidnapping the students? and who tried to kill Albus? You'll just have to wait and see.

Please Review!
