Lydia was out the door early. Straddling her broomstick, she secured her bag to her shoulder and strapped on her goggles. A long time had passed since she’d been out for a proper fly. She was no Quidditch player, but she liked to vault up into the skies and zone out for a few hours. Lydia twisted her wand around her body, casting a Disillusionment Charm about herself and her broom so the No-Maj communities wouldn’t take notice of her on her journey.
The witch kicked off, grinning with the rush of adrenaline as she aimed upward. She settled just below the clouds and flew south. So far, she hadn’t traveled out of the Obsidian Harbour and Brightstone Village circle just at the bottom of the North Island. Without a job to tie her down, it was high time to explore.
Lydia had been thinking, and she’d decided to stop her job search for a while. She clearly needed more time to put herself together. Her mother’s death- rather, the agonizing year of watching her become a shadow of her former self- had torn Lydia to ribbons. She deserved a longer break. If that meant using up her savings, so be it.
Lydia gasped in wonder as she approached the Southern Alps. It was beautiful. She descended to an isolated spot with a small, crystal clear lake. The air here was so crisp and clean. Setting down her bag and broomstick, she took out her wand and got to work.
It took several minutes to set down the proper spells and charms for what she intended. She thought she was alone, but it was better to be safe than sorry. She created a boundary so that her magic was contained in the area. Next, she set down another Disillusionment Charm so any No-Maj- Muggle, she reminded herself- wandering by couldn’t really see what she was up to. Finally, she transfigured a rock into a solid cloth-and-wood dummy.
Lydia stood back and took a deep breath. Grounding herself, she waved her wand at the dummy and shouted, “Confringo!” She grinned with glee as the Blasting Curse tore into the dummy, shredding it from the inside out. Her heart pounding, she picked up another rock and hurried to transfigure another target. This was much better than trying to practice at home.
