Chapter Nine
Madam Hooch stood near the grassy area of the castle. She had grey hair, blue eyes, and wore black robes; she stood near the students. 'I am sure, as before the last group last year, that all witches, and wizards, can fly. When I say: "UP!", you shall fly; you shall do so without incident. Now, do as I say'. Ron yelled: "UP!". And, as all of them did so, Harry yelled: "UP". And, in the end, the students followed the order. 'Looks like you're a natural, Potter', Draco sneered. He flew in the air. He saw Neville Longbottom. He remained still as a statue. He uttered a spell, and his broom went all over the place. Harry looked around, and stopped him before all chaos happened. Neville wasn't good at any class, yet. Draco waited. He hit the ball into the air. 'Catch that, Potter'. Harry flew in the air. 'Don't Harry. You'll fall', Hermoine said. She wasn't to know that James Potter was a seeker, and he was good at Quidditch. Flying was normal for him; he was a wizard! After he brought Neville down, Harry said: 'Don't fly again, Neville. Maybe you can do potions, or herbology'.
'Thanks, Harry'.
And then he knew that he had a friend who didn't laugh at him.

In other news, Harry Potter has returned to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, just like his parents, James and Lily Potter. Potter lives in Number 4, Privet Drive, Little Winging, Surrey, with Muggles...'.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYg3DrBLCn
Harry gasped at the news.
'Muggles! They dare say where I live! Besides, you don't want to live there, Ron. Hermoine'.
And they nodded, as the next class was about to begin.
