Chapter II
A Moste Mysterious Land
When Ron reawakened, he found that he was far from Hogwarts Caste. He seemed to be in a lush, forest-strewn land. Even more bizarre was the fact that the Weasley Twins and Lee Jordan were standing over him, beaming.
"Well, well, well. Look here, gentlemen…"
"It looks as if Sleepy Beauty has finally reawakened." The Twins sneered in unison.
"Where the heck am I?" inquired Ron. "Where's Hermione?"
"Ah, ickle Ronnie, that is a most interesting question."
"I suppose the only answer I can give is that you are in a "Moste Mysterious Land."
"We heard from Verity that Hogwarts had been attacked…" said Fred.
"And we found you lying in the ruins of the Castle," said George.
"Seemingly dead and sorely hurt," added Lee.
"We decided that we couldn't launch our revenge on ickle Dark Lord with you near death, so we grabbed a portkey to someplace until we have you nursed back to health."
"In any case, old Voldie's taken over everyplace. We needed someplace safe to prepare our counteroffensive."
"And this place seems as safe as can be."
"Oh," said Ron, confusedly. "Well, I guess that explains everything."
"Well gents, let's get moving. Daylight's burning, after all," Lee stated, matter-of-factly.
Lee Jordan, Ron, and the Weasley Twins kept walking for a brief while until they reached the edge of the forest to find a wide orchard. Inside of the penned orchard lay a vast multitude of fruit trees. Crowded around these, the group found a humanoid people.
"What do you reckon?" asked Fred.
"People?" inquired George.
"They don't look too dangerous." Said Lee.
"Dang, I'm hungry!" bellowed Ron. The others looked at him.
"Well, I am." His shouts attracted the stares of the other humans. They looked distinctly bewildered at the Weasley's and Lee's sudden arrival, and began grunting in what Ron supposed was a guttural language. Ron strode forward towards the others and said in a loud, clear voice "I am Ron Weasley. I come in peace." Fred, George, and Lee sniggered heartily, whilst the throng of unfriendly humans shifted about, evidently uneasy about something.
Before anything else could be done, a horrible sound came from the distant that set fear into the hearts of the others. It was the hoarse cry of a Hunting Horn.
