She slows down and watches a woodpecker hard at work high up in a tree enjoying the new perspective on the world around her. She looks down at the clearing, where her classmates are also getting the hang of flying. They laugh and giggle, chasing one another around the clearing. Mystique watches contentedly, her own broomstick in hand. She gets on and calls the girls back to her.

The seven girls hover in a line before Mystique. She gives them instructions to follow her and leads them out of the clearing over the trees. Mystique flies in large spirals and loop-de-loops, teaching her students some more complicated maneuvers. They follow her through the sky like ducklings follow their mother through water.

After an hour of flying, Miss Teak and her seven pupils land back in the clearing. The hens cluck together as if gossiping. The girls lean their brooms against the wall of the cottage and follow Miss Teak back into the cottage for some tea. Miss Teak gives everyone a cup of fresh mint tea using mint from her garden and a dollop of honey from a hive in the forest nearby.

The honey smells floral from the local wildflower pollen and the tea has a rejuvenating effect on the girls. They giggle and chatter to one another excitedly, already greatly enjoying their first day of school. Miss Teague smiles at them, answering questions and giving out compliments. Everyone finishes their tea and takes turns washing out their cups in a small, light-filled kitchen.

They hurry back to their benches, eager to find out what they will be doing next. Mystique comes out from one of the back rooms of the cottage with a large box. She places the box on the ground and the girls all lean closer to get a better look. One or two of them gasp as the box moves slightly. there is definitely something alive inside.

She says there was even one very old witch who used to have a donkey as a familiar. Miss Teak goes on to say that the most traditional familiar is the cat.

With a flourish, she lifts the lid of the box to show seven mewing kittens The girls collectively gasp and squeal with excitement. Miss Teague takes the kittens out of the box one at a time to let them explore and tells the girls to sit on the ground around the room. They are to interact with the kittens... See which one they feel a natural affinity with.
