“Okay are you ready to get started?” Asked the pale blue pegasus
“Yes” I replied.
“Then let’s start!”
The pegasus had all finished making the cloud houses, so Cumulous had offered to give me flying lessons.
“We’ll start off with levitating. I don’t expect much progress since from what you’ve told me you only got those wings this morning. But we’ll give it a try”
“Okay. What should I do”
“Try moving your wings up and down”
I stretched out my new wings and slowly moved them up and down. It was hard at first, but it got a bit easier once I was used to my new muscles.
“Now try moving them a bit faster”
I flapped them a bit faster. Eventually I rose a few centimeters off the ground.
“That’s it! Keep going. Flap them a little faster”
I franticly flapped my wings.
“That won’t work. You won’t get anywhere by randomly flapping. Keep the flaps even”
I tried his method, and it worked. Soon I was floating above the tree tops.
“How do I land?” I asked
“Lean towards the ground” The blue pegasus replied.
I complied. Soon I was zooming back down to the ground.
“Good work! I wasn’t expecting that much progress in one lesson”
“I didn’t either”
I looked up at the sky. The flying lesson took a lot longer than expected. The sun was setting, making the sky orange and purple.
I better get back to everyone else.
