Once you’ve followed him around, you’ll here Kogawa’s whistle get blown, meaning it’s time to rejoin the class. She won’t be too happy that you’ve gone off with Everett, but who cares?

A few pointers
While flying around on your broom is a lot of fun, there’re a few things to bear in mind, and some additional information that’ll help you out on your adventure.
To equip your broom while in open space, simply hold L1/LB and press circle. This will allow you to jump on your broom and begin flying.
Flying is prohibited while inside Hogwarts, villages, and within Hogsmeade. Even if you were to try, the option is crossed out in the circular slot in the bottom left of your screen.
There’re plenty of new brooms to find through puzzles across the map, and they can all be equipped in your Gear menu.
