Keeping her under control as she had Kerry, Victoria put Annie through her paces, moving the broom around the room, getting her accustomed to how it handed, making her feel relaxed . . . generally letting her build the confidence to make the broom do as she liked.
After her little-more-than-15 minutes was up, Victoria gave Annie her last orders. "Okay, Annie, we're just about done here. Get into a hover--that's it. Now, put just the smallest of pressure on the broom, let it descend a touch, bring your feet down and, when you're on the ground, pull the broom out and hold it to your side.
"You've been doing great, so this is gonna be easy. Okay, now . . . land."
