Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 17 Flying lessons begin

Flying lessons made the already peaceful campus life lively again. Boys born in wizard families began to talk about their experiences riding broomsticks on various occasions. And Dean Thomas and Ron, who came from a Muggle family, had a big fight about which one was better, football or Quidditch. Perhaps among the boys, Neville and Harry were the only ones who were not excited about the arrival of flying lessons.

Needless to say, Neville can cause endless accidents with his two feet on the ground. Flying a broomstick is simply a high-risk sport for him. As for Harry, what worried and troubled him was that Gryffindor's flying lessons were taken together with Slytherin students. Harry felt that he was going to make a fool of himself in front of Malfoy, because Malfoy basically talked about how good his flying skills were all day long, although Nydia had told Harry that Malfoy's flying skills were not as good as his. As powerful as he said, Harry felt that he would be better than someone like him who had never touched a flying broomstick.

Finally the day came, the Gryffindor students came to the field in front of the door, and the Slytherin students had already arrived.

Nydia saw Malfoy in the crowd. In recent days, Nydia often met Malfoy in restaurants or school corridors, but they would not greet each other, nor would they meet Malfoy like Harry and Ron. Like Fu, even if he didn't curse a few words, he would glare at each other fiercely. They just treated each other as strangers and didn't exist. Harry and Ron noticed this problem. Harry didn't say anything, but Nydia guessed that Michelle might have secretly told him what happened. Ron was very satisfied with this situation. He said Nydia did made a wise decision. Nydia didn't know whether this decision was wise or not, she just felt uncomfortable.

The person who taught them to fly the broom was Mrs. Hooch. She had short gray hair and two yellow eyes, like the eyes of an eagle.

"Stretch out your right hand, place it on the broom handle, and say: Get up." Mrs. Hooch shouted from the front.

Everyone followed Mrs. Hooch's instructions, but the results were different. Nydia called the broom several times before she swayed up and jumped into his hand, while Harry only called the broom. It immediately jumped into his hand. Of course, there are very few people like Harry. In most cases, people like Nydia succeed after trying several times. Neville is a bit special, thinking that he is afraid of his heart, so he tries the broom many times and still remains indifferent. of.

It took nearly half an hour to get everyone's brooms up in their hands. Then, Mrs. Hooch showed everyone how to get on the broom without sliding off their heads. She walked around the group correcting their hand grips.

"Okay, when I whistle, you kick your legs off the ground and push hard." Mrs. Huo Qi said, "Hold the broom steadily, rise a few feet, then lean forward slightly and fall vertically back to the ground. Listen. I whistle..."

However, Neville was too nervous and was afraid of being left on the ground, so he kicked hard and flew up without waiting for the whistle to blow.

The other students were frightened, and Mrs. Huo Qi kept calling Neville to come down, but Neville flew higher and higher. The most frightened person was Neville himself. His face turned pale and he shouted for help. Finally, Neville flew up and down. Wei swayed in panic and fell off the broom, falling to the ground with a thud.

"The wrist is broken," Mrs. Hooch checked the extent of Neville's injuries. "Okay, the child is fine. You can get up."

She helped Neville up, then turned to the other students and said, "I will send this child to the hospital. No one of you is allowed to move! Put the broomstick back to its place, otherwise, before you can say a word of Quidditch, you will be Got kicked out of Hogwarts. Come on, dear."

Neville's face was still stained with tears. He grabbed his wrist and limped away with Mrs. Hooch.

"Look!" After Mrs. Hooch walked away, Malfoy suddenly grabbed something from the grass and said. "That idiot Longbottom's grandmother sent it to him."

It was a memory ball. Grandma Neville had sent it to him at noon. Malfoy had snatched it away, but was stopped in time by Professor McGonagall.

"Give it back, Malfoy," Nydia shouted to Malfoy, already furious with Malfoy's behavior by noon.

"You want to help Longbottom?" Malfoy was obviously surprised that Nydia would come forward.

"Why, now you have to defend even this chubby little tearbag Longbottom." Seeing Nydia talking to Malfoy, Pansy jumped out immediately.

"That belongs to Neville, you shouldn't take it, Malfoy." Nydia ignored Pansy's taunt and just asked Malfoy for the memory ball.

"What if not?" Nydia's words made Malfoy a little angry. "I want to put it somewhere and let Longbottom pick it up. How about putting it on a tree?"

"Don't go too far," Nydia said to Malfoy.

But Malfoy had already jumped on his broom and was flying. Upon seeing this, Nydia also went to get the broomstick and wanted to chase Malfoy. Michelle and Hermione came over to stop her.

"You don't know how to ride yet, so it will be dangerous." Michelle said.

"Mrs. Hooch told us not to move. You will cause trouble to everyone." Hermione said.

But Nidia couldn't listen to their advice at this time, and pushed hard to make her broom fly into the air. However, Nidia had no experience at all. The broom started to shake soon after it took off. Don't say it now. Chasing Malfoy and even keeping oneself balanced was difficult.

"Idiot, you don't even know how to ride and you still want to chase me." Malfoy, who was hanging high in the sky, said to Nydia.

"You return Neville's memory ball." Nydia said while trying to keep her body balanced.

In fact, Nydia is having a very difficult time surviving now, but she still doesn't want to give up on getting back the memory ball. During this time, she has been holding back a fire in her heart, because of Malfoy's last offense to her mother, and also for Malfoy's last offense. Fu's various evil deeds during this period. Anyway, she just wanted to teach him a lesson today.

"Hurry up and get down, Longbottom's matter has nothing to do with you." Malfoy yelled at Nydia.

"I...ah!" Before Nidia could finish her words, her body tilted completely and fell down.

Just when Nydia thought she would fall and break her bones like Neville, she was caught by someone, it was Harry. He held Nydia's body, and the two fell to the ground. Fortunately, Nydia's altitude was not high, otherwise if it had hit Harry like this, both of them would have been seriously injured.

"Nitya, are you okay!" Michelle rushed over to check on Nitya's condition.

"I'm fine." Nidia got up from the ground. "Harry, are you okay? Thank you, are you injured anywhere?" Nidia asked Harry who saved her.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." After saying that, Harry also got up from the ground. He picked up the broomstick that Nidia had just dropped. He turned around and said to Nidia, "I will take the memory ball with me." Come back."

Before Nydia could react, Harry had already taken off, and everyone was stunned, including Malfoy, who was floating above. Harry rode the broomstick very well, no worse than Malfoy's performance before. He quickly made the broomstick rise smoothly to the same position as Malfoy. The classmates watching all this below all let out surprised shouts. .

"I thought it was his first time riding a broomstick," Michelle exclaimed.

"I thought so too. He was very worried before." Nidia was also shocked.

"This is his first time riding. He is a genius." Ron said, and he happily shouted several times in admiration at Harry high in the sky.

Harry and Malfoy circled in the air for a moment, and his skills were not inferior to Malfoy's at all. Malfoy may have felt that it was difficult to get rid of Harry, so he simply threw the memory ball high. When everyone thought that the memory ball would be lost like this, Harry leaned over and rushed after the memory ball. , just when the memory ball was about to fall to the ground, Harry accelerated his dive. At a height of one inch from the ground, Harry caught the memory ball and straightened the broomstick in time. His series of dangerous operations made the people below The audience screamed.

"Harry Potter." Just when Harry landed safely and everyone gathered around to cheer him, Professor McGonagall suddenly appeared.

"In all my years at Hogwarts, I have never...how dare you...you will break your neck..."

"It's not his fault, Professor." Nydia was worried that Professor McGonagall would punish Harry, so she quickly stepped forward to explain.

"Shut up, Miss Field." Professor McGonagall did not listen to Nydia's explanation.

"But Malfoy..." Ron also stepped forward to explain the reason.

"Stop it, Mr. Weasley. Now, Potter, follow me."

Professor McGonagall strode towards the castle, and before Harry left, he gave Nydia the memory ball. When Nydia touched Harry's hand, she found that his whole body was shaking. His eyes were full of despair. Nydia hoped that he could say something, but in the end he followed Professor McGonagall without saying a word. pace.

After Professor McGonagall and Harry walked away, Malfoy came over. He stared at Nydia fiercely and said.

"You are so stupid."

"If anything happens to Harry, I won't make it easy for you." Nydia said to Malfoy angrily. She could feel Harry's fear. She knew how much he didn't want to go back to the place that was harsh on him. uncle's house.

"I'm afraid you have to say goodbye to your Harry Potter soon." Malfoy smiled proudly. After saying that, he turned and left.

Nydia stood there angrily. She felt powerless. Harry had just saved her, but she couldn't help at all.

"Why can't Professor McGonagall be more partial to her students like Snape?" Ron said angrily from the sidelines.

"Nidia, your wrist is bleeding." Michelle found that Nidia's sleeves were stained with blood.

Only then did Nitya realize that her wrist was injured. It should have been caused by friction with the ground when she fell.

"I'm fine, it's just a little broken skin." Nitya had no time to take care of this little wound now.

"No, let's go to the hospital! It won't be good if the wound becomes infected."

At Michelle's insistence, Nidia finally went to the hospital with Michelle, just in time for her to return the memory ball to Neville.
