A Mystical Place
Summary -
Alex plays a prank on Justin and it ends up going horribly wrong. They both end up in a strange place in the jungle without their wizard powers. How can they escape? Will they co-operate for once in their lives? This is just a fun little short story that I thought you guys might like.
Welcome to the Mystical Place called Alto Pajetan. I might also want to add that this was a story we wrote in school a few years ago and I switched up my characters and improved the plot. I will be changing POV's throughout the story, but only once per chapter. Enjoy!

Chapter 1 – Magic Goes Awry
Alex's POV

"Quick, go distract Justin while I finish." I whispered urgently to my little brother. Max scurried away.

"Hey, Justin, can you count the eyes on this potato for me?" I heard Max yell out randomly to Justin. I put the finishing touches on my masterful prank. (Is masterful even a word?)

Max came running up the stairs and together, we waited eagerly until Justin took his shower.

"ALEX!!!" Justin came running out of the bathroom with his bath towel around his waist. I knew my prank would work. They always do. "WHY IS MY SHOWER STICKY?!?!" He screamed at me.

"Well, that might have something to do with Max eating his candies and showering at the same time." I smiled evilly.

"Don't try to blame this one on Max, Alex. I know it was you up to no good. I was the one that was covering your shift at the sub shop while you left to go pull this prank." Oh, dang, I guess I wasn't so sneaky after all.

Justin stormed off to his bedroom. Max and I had a good laugh about the sticky mess that was Justin's hair. Putting hard candies in the shower head was an awesome idea. I came up with it, obviously. I knew I had to come up with another great idea to annoy Justin before long, or else he might think I was losing my evil sister touch.

I wandered into Justin's room for some planning inspiration. By now he was dressed and sitting at his desk doing homework. (The nerd.) I heard him mumbling something quietly, so I got closer. I came right up behind him, close enough to flick the back of his head.

"Pranks are what Alex does, protect me now or she'll..." I didn't let him finish his spell; instead I launched myself at him and pulled his wand from his tight grip. At that moment, I heard his unfinished spell take effect.

"Alex! I didn't finish the spell! Now the outcome could be anything? I might have disrupted the space time continuum!" He stressed to me in his typical smart, brotherly way.

"Alright, fine! I'll just leave then, and hope I disrupt your spacey, whatever-thingy." I smirked and turned to leave his bedroom. Only, there was nothing-just blank space outside his door. It was a door that led to nothing.

"See? My magic has gone amiss! What should we do? I know, let's go ask dad!" Justin panicked. Then he ran out of his room.

"NO! Justin!" I yelled as he ran into the outer blankness stuff. Without even thinking about it, I ran after him.

"Where are we?" Justin asked me. We were standing in a flat greenish area, surrounded by jungle leaves and stuff like that. He pulled out his pocket compass (I never understood why he carried one of those around) and started walking what he said was north.

"Justin, be careful!" I said worriedly as he disappeared into the wall of green. I ran after him and landed, (of course!) in a thick puddle of mud.

"Come on, Alex, we have to keep going. Plus, I hear someone coming!" Justin told me.

"That's kind of hard, Justin. I'm stuck." He pulled me up out of the mud, but also right out of my brand new stiletto boots. I grabbed a stick and poked my shoes trying to pry them loose.

"Come on, someone's coming!" Justin repeated.

"Hang on one second. I just have to get my boots loose first." I told him with my back turned.

"Paji?" A weird voice behind me said. I whirled around and stared into the heavily-painted face of a man. He was big and burly, and dark of face.

"PAJI!" The man called out. A large group of similar looking people came out of the bushes.

"But, where's Justin?" I asked the strange guy. He just laughed before carrying me away with his big friends.

So, what do you guys think, should I turn this into an ongoing story? If you guys want this story, I promise I will update it much faster than my first story written. Thanks!
