Spellz Academy - Additional IC

Nether shrugged and said the first few things that came to mind. "Brooms, wind magic, levitation spells." He said with a shrug really he just said things he read form some fantasy games. After all he lived on earth so he wasn't sure how much of that was correct.
 
"Ah yes very good, just please raise your hand first and stand up when i grant permission to talk."She said softly. "Brooms really are one of the most traditional flying utensils, they used to be considered typically female or girlish and still are a lot associated with witches more then male practicioners of magic, but nowerdays they are the most common used way to fly." She liftet the first crate revealing a broom under it. "I will address wind magic later and levitation spells. Soooo Brooms, well there are of course different ways to make them and use them, and thus different kinds of them. The upside to using direkt means of flight is that they do not drain your thaumic energy that much and constantly." She smiled..."What some would call mana. Yeah I bet you should know that word. Well anyways there can be spirit infused brooms, they are sentient and thus can be hard to use...with them having an own mind but they have their own magic capabilities and thus you don't need to use your own energy up. An other way is to cast a strong lifting spell on a normal broom that uses itself up over time." She sighed..."Okay maybe we should talk about other ways to fly...does anyone know other traditional ways?"
 
"Um well......" She wasn't really sure this stuff was really new to her. "I thought the broom was the only one though I really wouldn't know." She glanced outside and imagined her self flying around. "I wonder if I will be able to get off the ground." She said quietly you herself the n she looked back at the teacher.
 
"Don't worry I will help everyone especially the beginners and students who are afraid of heigths." She then scratched her eyebrow."Another quite popular one it the flying carpet of course, it is rather hard to master though but is very comfortable and roomy for more then one person or longer flights, definitely an advanced way to g et around though." She pointed at the darkwooden ceiling where a carpet was ...well lying upside down. "Wewill not use one this year though. Okay another way that used tobe mighty popular are beds, as spells for brooms work on any kind of wood utensil there was a time when it was very fashionable to use beds for flight. Another not tradional but noverdays quite often used one is of course the flying vacuum cleaner." She raised the second box revealing her own one "Its a bit slower and turns worse then a Broom but is very very stable in flight and ideal for long distance or heavy lifting." She scratched a neck a bit..."Well maybe that should be enougth theory for day one I bet you are burning to get off the ground...would two of you carry the other two boxes for me? We will get to the great grassfield.
 
Nether had no desire to get off the ground, in fact he rather loved the ground and would prefer to stay on it. So he just stayed in his seat and hoped to high hell that by the time it was his turn to fly or whatever class would be over.
 
"Come along young man." Himiko said softly as she had waited by the door when all the other students where already outside on the way there.
 
Nether sunk into his seat as everyone left hoping that the teacher wouldn't notice him. Much to his dismay he was called out. He slowly stood up and took his time to leave the building. "Fun..." He muttered as he created headphones and placed them on his ear to distract him from the idea of falling and becoming a gory decoration on the ground. "I hate heights." He mumbled as he walked past the teacher and out the door.
 
She just snapped shortly summoning the phones to her hand putting them into one of her pockets. "Ah that explains it then, don't worry I have just the right broom for you, the spirit is very experienced and calm, and it will not go an inch higher than told and be slow and carefull about it, also take one of these." She handed him a pile of Ofuda, Pieces of paper with complicated formulas on them." Just attach one to your skin and it will slow you down when you should fall, you will just hit the ground very softly." She scatched her neck "You didn't think I'd let beginners fly around without safety measures did you?"
 
Nether took the paper and shrugged. "No...I still hate heights." He said calmly as he left but stopped a few feet away and looked over at the teacher. "I was...nevermind I need to get over my idiotic fear first." He let out a sigh and left.
 
Himiko sighed then followed him. She stopped smiling for once and in a worried sounding voice said. " May I ask your name? I will not force you to do anything, but really I am here to help, there are a load of people who are now great at all kinds of flight who where and in some cases still are afraid of heigth, we will start very very lightly with hovering, you won't even be higher then you are now standing up, just without touching the ground...comeon let's not keep the others waiting." She said leading him towards the lawn field where the other students where already waiting.
 
"...Nobody." He said as he placed his hands on the back of his head. "I'm Nobody." He let out a sigh as they arrived on the lawn. Even when she tried to reassure him he still didn't like the idea. But not much he could do about it.
 
She sighed thinking for a moment to ask again but decided against it, in the end she just walked over to where the students had set down the crates and opened them, revealing far more Brooms than 3 Dimensions would normally provide room for, she took her time talking with each and every Student handing out fitting ones and finally came back to Nether. "Okay Mr Nobody here we have it, you do not have to talk with it really, Broomspirits most often communicate on other ways and will pick up what you want them to do easily." She handed him a very beaten looking broom with a handled that was gleaming for having been polished by generations of Students. Once she had shoved it into his hand it seemed to project a sense of calmness and steadiness. Himiko sat down on her own Broom in Ladyseat and hovered her feet a few centimetres above ground. then she hoveres a bit higher drwaing everyones attention to herself: "Okay everyone onto you Brooms, who ever feels ready to do it alone just please stay above this lawn and do not fly higher than a hundred metres, also do not forget to attach your safety ofudas I handed out. These Brooms are mostly experienced once they should not give you any trouble, they know how to handle new riders." Then she turned to Nether smiling reassuringly. "Don't worry we will just float around a bit...no higher then 2 feet above ground and no faster then you can walk, so you can get the feeling for it."
 
Shiyam looked at the crate of brooms before looking at the teacher with a passive look. Mara looked at the brooms with a confused look, how was Shiyam going to fly one of these things when she could simply use her sword to fly? The many wonders a flying creature thinks about a broom.


"Teacher, I don't know if any broom would stick."
 
Nether took the broom and inspected it. "Let's get this over with. Hey if you plan to drop me give me a warning first." He said to it as if talking to a broom was an everyday occasion. He casually got on it and kept a tight grip on as he floated in the air. True he wasn't two feet of the ground but he sure as hell missed it.
 
Himiko looked at Shiyam a bit confused. "Will stick? What do you mean by that?" She didn't actually see when Nether took off and smiled brightly and clapped excitedly when he saw him hover sideways slowly but apart from that beeing airborne just fine "Oh fine very fine, I thought I'd need ages to get you that far, if you want to lean forward just a little bit to move into that direction." She then turned to Shiyam again "If you already know how to use other ways to fly but not this one i would still ask you to try with a broom, it's just the beginners way to do it, I am at your disposal after class to talk about other ways of flight and if you want to train some other way to do it, but for now e wills tart the easy way, and that is with Sentient Broomsticks." She then floated closer to Nether again nodding approvingly afterwards she looked around for anyone like Amu for example who was entirely new to flying too and might need assitance.
 
Amu was sucking on a sucker as she grabbed a broom and got on it. "Ok so how do I do this?" She inspected the broom then took the sucker out of her mouth then popped it back in. She grabbed the broom with both hands then closed her eyes. "Alright so this is just magic right so I have to make it fly." Suddenly she felt herself lifting into the air. "Whoa! I'm doing it!" But then she realized she wasn't stopping and that she was getting higher and higher. "Um Miss Himiko!!" Then suddenly she started flying everywhere really fast. "Whoa!!! Someone help me stop!!! Ah!!!" It was actually kind of funny in a way.
 
Shiyam shook her head.


"I don't think any broom will accept me is what I meant to say but I'll try."


She saw Amu flying higher and didn't think before pulling out Bloodskal and tossing it into the air, making it float a few inches off the ground.


"Miss Himiko, Amu is going higher than she's suppose to."


She said as she got on Bloodskal, the sword purred. Yes the sword purred. Bloodskal was a sentient sword that was handed to her by her adopted mother and it loved her energy since then.


 
Shiyam looked at Bloodskal floating before grabbing a broom and sitting on it like Miss Himiko. She placed her feet on Bloodskal and it gave a growl but didn't do anything else.
 
Himiko sighed, shead nearly waited for this as it happened nearly everytime during first class..."If you'd excuse me." she said sftly then jumped onto her broom standing like on a skateboard and shot after Amu, dialing a spell n her wand then aming at at her, needing a few times before she had the broom under control slowing it down. "Gotcha!" she said and with the girl in tow flew slowly back to earth.
 
Shiyam just looked on as she floated around on the broom and her feet on Bloodskal. Said weapon was purring as they floated around, even though they were only a few feet off the ground. She had this energy that calmed the untamable weapon that her mother had trouble calming down. It even accounted for the plants wanting to...A small vine was around her wrist and she sighed before more vines joined the first.
 
Her hair was am mess and the sucker dropped from her mouth. "W-why did it go all crazy like that?" She tred to stand but was a little wobbly. "Well whatever just happen it was awesome!!!" She finally got her stance together and turned to the teacher. "Sorry I really have no idea what just happen or how I did that."
 
"Don't think about it too much, maybe the spirit picked up on your excitement and that made it fly off. I think this one is one of the impressionable ones. the important part is normally to have yourself in check and keep in control." She said softly as she sat her down.
 
Nether had gotten off his broom slightly dizzy even though he only went up five feet and moved at the speed of your average jogger. He had stayed airborne for a good ten minutes before decided he had enough and wanted to stay on the ground. Sure it seemed pretty cool to fly, but as of now he was born on land and that is where he belonged.
 
"Ok......so can I try again?" She asked eagerd to get back on. Either that or the ten pieces of candy she had was getting to her. She realized she dropped her sucker then pulled a piece of gum out and started chewing.
 
Himiko nodded "I would appreciate if you could refrain from eating candy during class though, let's see ah your classmate seems to be done with the beginner broom maybe you should try that one, there is no way on earth that one will get out of hand so badly...I'd like if you could try flying nice orderly 8s around the place." She said softly after she had colected the first Broom then she turned to nether. "Hey 10 Minutes is okay for the first time I am quite proud, I'd appreciate it though if you could show up for afternoon classes, I can teach you better with fewer students around and this way your chance to pass the test at the end of year are higher."
 
Shiyam still floated a couple feet off the ground while vines had wrapped around her arms, legs, and neck but they never harmed her, they just loved the feel she gave off. Bloodskal was becoming bored with staying at one altitude and began lifting up with Shiyam along for ride. Shiyam didn't try to stop Bloodskal as it higher and faster, she was still on the broom.
