"Thats me." Jindy replied as a man in a kilt crossed his name off a list, another man holding out his hand and looking sternly at the crowbar, he looked as though he were amazed that someone would leave someone of his age with such a dangerous item.

"I'll be taking that crowbar before you start getting any ideas." The man with the watch said as he grabbed the Wrecking bar from Jindys hands. Throwing it into a box already full of other miscilanious objects. Jindy now stood on a moor that was girt with trees that were barely visible through the growing mist. The sky was still passing through the twilight hours and was hanging on the sweet scent of summer flowers and moist grass that were floating through the humid summer air. He began to feel warm under the collar as he stood their in his winter clothes that he had been wearing back in the winter chill of the Australian Snowy Mountains. He quickly took off his jacket and dragged his wooden trunk off the landing area. He sat down on his trunk next to the kilted man and rolled up the sleaves on his skivy.

"You won't be waiting long, we have one more group to come through before the Patils are coming through. The other member of your group is coming through in a few days time. Just wait patiently for a few minutes while we get this next group out." The kilted man said to Jindy as he checked his list. All of a sudden a group of people, huddled round an old bicycle wheel were sling shot into the clearing, stretching like a rubber band and then standing on the same spot that Jindy had just stepped off. It was a family of four and when they stopped the two children, one about twelve and the other nine, kept going and fell over. The two children were helped up by their parents and then dusted off." Ah, Scott Deas, how are you going?" asked the kilted man to the father that had just dusted off his son.

"Not bad, how have you been basil, hope you havn't been getting up to anymore of your tricks again. You caused my department alot of fuss with that Tax imbargo on Romanian imports. Most of the wand making bunch sent my department Howlers because of the cost of Dragon Heartstring." Said Scott Deas, a thick scottish accent clouding many of his words, making them hard to understand.

"Mr. Campbell, this is Scott Deas and his family. He works for the Public Relations Department of the Ministry here." The kilted man named Bazil Introduced Jindy to the new arrivals, then sent the family to the third camping ground. The clearing remained quite and still with only a soft, warm breeze floating through over the figs and pines that surronded the clearing. a few moments passed in total silence as Jindy addapted to the high humidity and relativly warm tempratures. The kilted man suddenly grabbed for something in his pocket and started cursing himself." I can't beleave I forgot this. Take this bottle of potion, its a new development that you probably know about... Probably take it at the start of each year at Hogwarts. Just down the bottle and you'll be right."

Jindy recognised the bottle as containing Morrisons Paralax Potion, a potion that adjusts you to the time zone your in so that you don't experience what the Muggles called jet lag. A slight feeling of woziness fell over Jindy as the potion began to take effect, a plesently cool feeling spread over his body as the wind changed and dropped a few degrees a feeling of excessive stiffness began to fallover his muscles as the potion released him into the Grenwich time zone. He began to stretch his muscles as he sat waiting for the Patils. As he was stretching his triceps the air around him seemed to compress as the rubber band effect brought the Patils and one other passenger to a stop in front of him. Just as the Deas children had, Parvati, Orca, Mrs. Patil, and one of Jindy's other friends named Ashleigh Bauke who they all called Bengal because of an accident that had happened at a Muggle zoo when she was a child, fell to the ground in a large heap, leaving only Mr. Patil standing.

Jindy had to juggle his need to laugh at the comical sight that lay before him, the wan't to help Orca, Bengal, and Mr.Patil up, and the stiffness in his limbs. He really had no want to help Parvati up so he left Her and Mrs. Patil for Mr. Patil to help up and, trying to stifle the gigantic waves of laughter that were flowing from his stomach, helped Orca and Bengal up. Both looked rather imbaresed and degan to blush and laugh at the fall they had just been helped up from. Parvati, on the other hand, wasn't at all pleased about the fall. Jindy opened his mouth, on the verge of saying "... Whats wrong Parvati? I thought you would have been able to see that coming..." but caught the look on Orcas face and reconsidered. Parvati didn't seem to be making any attempt to be nice to him though.

"A real man dosn't laugh at a lady whos fallen over." came Parvtis high and Mighty voice. The main problem with Parvati was that she reminded him to much of Louisa. Jindy decided to say somthing that wouldn't be mean to Parvati but get the same message across.

"Good thing that your dad didn't find it that funny then." Came Jindy's sarcastic tone, he looked more at Orca to see if she approved of the restraint being excersised by him not to go off at her. She wasn't. She seemed rather controlled about it, but after all most living with the girl for the last three years, he knew that she was still pretty dissapointed. He tried to send her a look that would say to her "... Hay, I tried..." but it came off as a bit of an aukward shrug.

"Its lovly to see you again Jean Luc. How have you been down in Australia?" Came the hearty tones of Mrs.Patils voice as she brushed herself off." Hope its not to cold down there in the mountains."

"Not to bad, It reached 13 degrees one day up at Jindabyne on the 18th of last month, but that was the highest so far." Jindy replied to the expected questions of Mrs. Patil, Parvati began to almost glare at her mum as though she was a traitor for talking to him.

"Could we please save the reunion for later, we have another load coming through in a minute thrity so would you please move on to your camping sight, Its number sixteen which is first on the other path which is to your left." came the slightly iritated and rather nausiated tone of the voice that belonged to the man named basil. Jindy had an Idea form in his head.

"Strange name for a path, the other path... wouldn't you say Padma." Jindy always called Orca Padma around her parents so they didn't get confused.

"Extremly, wonder who would name a path the other path? any Ideas Ashleigh?" Orca continned on with the thread that Jindy had started.

"No idea. Must be pretty strange person though... to name it the other path." Bengal continued the thread that had been handed to her by Orca.

"Its not called that! Its just that..." Basil started to protest to their little joke.

"We know Basil, just messing with ya." Jindy assured the Kilted man as the party began to walk towards 'the other path', laughing at the light humor of the slightly childish joke they had made. Jindy pulled his wand out of his back pocket (Dragon Heart String, Cedar, 13 inches.) and muttered in a low voice 'Lumos'. They could see a few scatered fires as they walked up the path into the campsite and came out at a slight rise.

They gazed out at a large open plain that had been potted with little tents, cramed together in the tight spaces they had been allocated. there was a small break in the trees on the right of the field where it joined the first camp ground, through which they could see many little hills covered in shamrocks... They wern't hills. They were tents! At the bottom of the slight rise was a small hut that faced towards them. They walked down to it and read the note on the door.

' Could all night arrivals please sign the late book that is under the window to the left. I, the administrator will be down to your sight to collect the twenty five pound surface charge.'

Mr. Patil pulled a quill out of his wollen jumper and signed the space next to the name 'Patil - 737' and they checked the number of the sight on a map of the whole campground and found their site, which was nearly big enough to squeeze four tents into it if they tried to, but it was a bit of a problem trying to put two tents up at the same time. Jindy didn't usually have much trouble puting up his dome tent by himself, but in the dark while the Patils and Bengal struggled to put up theirs next to him and he tried deperatly not to hit them with one of his poles that it took him alot longer than it should have. But he got there in the end and started dragging in his trunk in the wand light. All though he hadn't noticed it before, he had begun to be aware that he was becoming unbearably tired... The Paralax potion was beggining to have its desired effect. He dragged his trunk into his room and nearly fell asleep there and then.

He pulled himself up off his bed in a hope that he wouldn't nod off before he was done with his 'buisness'. He scrambled through his trunk till he found the presents he had bought in Luceat square and pulled out some wrapping paper from home, he also got out the plush toy 'Blue Cows' he had bought from the Mount Blue Cow Ski Tube terminal. He put the bracers of clarity around the neck of Parvatis' cow and wrestled with the erge to write on the tag '... thought the cow should be put back with its own kind...' and then wrapped it. He took the ring and put it around the leg of her cow, the thought that kept flowing back through his head was that this was all very corny and that he'd just make both of them very imbaresed, but he finished wrapping and went back to his bed. He called a good night to every body in the other tent and got hearty replies from all bar Parvati... who chose instead to make a scene about disturbing other peoples sleep. And Jindy nodded off.

Jindy wasn't asleep long before he began to dream of the hooded and masked figures again... but it was different this time. He was sitting in his black jeans and wearing a green shirt, and looked no older than if he looked at himself in the mirror. He was again wearing his wrist blades again, but this time he was sliding his finger along the blade of the khitana and he had a look in his eyes that was neither fear, nerves, or even anger... they were completly blank, no human in him or his eyes. The hooded figures walked towards him and pointed their wands in his direction. Jindy took a fighting stance and then one of the party stepped out in front of the rest and held out a hand to stop them. The rest turned away and walked with their wands turned high in the air, while the man who had stopped them turned on Jindy and drew an axe from his belt and stood in a stance that resembled the stance of a batter in the Muggle game of Baseball. Jindy turned his hand over and gestured the man forward... Then the man charged.

A bit over a meter he began a swing that Jindy blocked with his khitana and then used to spin him round on the spot and slash at the attacker at his mid chest which was blocked by the man as he spun to jab Jindy from behind. They dueled like this for what seemed like an eternity... Pary's met with blocks that were turned into counter-attacks that were turned into blocks and used by the other to attack. Then in one decisive move Jindy landed a hit on the mans shoulder and he dropped the axe which collided with the khitana which Jindy had to release to ensure the axe didn't take his head off. The man stumbled as he grabbed his arm, but Jindy didn't give up on the man to attack and so he pinned the man to the ground at the shoulders with his knees, and raised his wrist blades. The sleeping Jindy saw Orca at the edge of her tent and the look of shear terror on her face as she watched the dream Jindy wind up... and then release! his fist came down with lightning speed and slambed strait into the place where the mans neck had been... but the man had dissapperated. Jindy woke with a searing pain in his hand, it hurt so bad he thought he had broken it... though he never had broken a bone in his body, he imagined this is what it felt like. And then just as suddenly as the pain had come it subsided. The same cold sweat fell over his face that had been there the night before... or time wise, that night, as the sun still hadn't risen on the day he had left back in Luceat Square.

He checked the fogg watch that he always wore when dealing with magical places, and saw that it was 04:30. He had always gotten by on very few hours sleep all his life and quite often woke up after four hours felling as though he had slept for ten. He slipped on a shirt, pulled a pair of trousers over his stiff legs, slid on his sandles, and walked out with a ten litre bottle to the tap at the edge of the campsite where it touched the first campground. After spending a few minutes at the tap filling up the bottle, most of which was spent trying to unjam it, he began to walk back to his tent.

"Up a bit early to get water, arn't you?" Came the voice of a rather old and battered scottish man. He looked tired and worn, much like the cloak he was pretending to sleep under, which had been proped up on sticks.

"Don't usually sleep much, excitment of the world cup isn't helping much." Jindy lied. He didn't really feel safe talking to this man who seemed to be taking just as little intrest in him.

"You might want to try a sleeping draught." The man sujested rolling over so he was facing the ceiling of cloak." You know how to make one of them?"

"Powdered root of asphedel in to an infusion of wormwood." The simple potion had been learnt in their first lesson and Jindy had tried it out that night. It had had quite the opposite of the desired effect and had just made him go Hyper past the point of no return. Thus Jindy didn't try it again." Dosn't work on it. Got a kinda resistence."

"Pity for you th'n. Sh'ld try and be an optimist, at least no one can put you out with a sleeping draught. All ways look on the bright side of life, thats my motto." The man seemed to be rambling on to his cloak rather than talking to Jindy." By the way, m' names Fletcher, Mundungus Fletcher... and you are?"

"Jean Luc... ah, nice to meet you Mr. Fletcher."Jindy tried to sound as cheerfull but have a finality in his tone that Mundungus Fletcher would get the Idea.

"You kow what I've learned in life, though a bit to late to change it about me. There is one value that should be held above all others. One that I havn't lived by at all. And you know what that value is Mr. Jean Luc?" Jindy shook his head."...Honesty, its all that matters, none of this Humility or Dexterity. they wont get you no where. I leave you to have a think about that." And the man fell back to sleep. Jindy stared at the spot that the man had ocupied with his head before falling asleep. That had to be one of the Weirdest men he had ever talked to... or really listened to.

Jindy walked back to his tent and poured the water into the Exander tank, which would make his water into about a thousand litres of water. He walked back into his room and checked the time, 05:00. He rumaged through his trunks fourth compartment and pulled out his guitar and started playing and then singing.

'Breathing right away, nothing seems to fill this place

I see this every time, so take your lights off my face

And someday I will find,

A love that flows to me like this

and this will fall away... this will fall away

Your getting closer, to pushing me off of life little edge

'Cause I'm a loser, and sooner or later you know I'll be dead

Your getting closer, your holding the rope and I'm taking the fall

'Cause I'm a loser, well I'm a loser

This is getting old, I can't break these chains that I hold,

My bodys growing cold, theres nothing left of this mind on my soul

Addiction needs a pacifier

The blood of this poisonis taking me higher

And this will fall away, this will fall away

Your getting closer, to pushing me off of life little edge

'Cause I'm a loser, and sooner or later you know I'll be dead

Your getting closer, your holding the rope and I'm taking the fall

'Cause I'm a loser, well I'm a loser

Your getting closer, to pushing me off of life little edge

'Cause I'm a loser, and sooner or later you know I'll be dead

Your getting closer, your holding the rope and I'm taking the fall

'Cause I'm a loser, well I'm a loser

Your getting closer, to pushing me off of life little edge

'Cause I'm a loser, and sooner or later you know I'll be dead

Your getting closer, your holding the rope and I'm taking the fall

I'm taking, taking, yeah...'

Jindy finished and jumped at the sound of clapping from the door way. Jindy turned and saw one of the twins standing in the doorway... he assumed it was Orca because she hadn't made any smart remarks about the song. But there was only one way to be sure." How do I know your not Pavarti?" Jindy asked with very little intrest, he was looking for reaction rather than words. He knew that if it was parvati she'd try and shrug it off without any real proof. But instead the twin raised her hand and showed the scar from where her wand had gone through her hand after she had been nocked down the stairs accidently. This was the action that Jindy expected from Orca. Jindy got up and grabbed Orcas present he had wrapped only hours ago from the table and passed it to her. "Happy Birthday Orca."

But instead of reaching for the present she almost shuned it away. Jindy's mind went crazy. Had he gotten the worng day? It was possible with the Paralax potion he could of gotten confused.

"Mum and Dad wan't me to open all my presents in my bed as if I was at home getting them. We always did it that way before and they wanna keep it that way. Besides it wont be as aukward giving parvati her present that way. Would it." Orca rushed through it all as she saw the shocked and slightly scared look on Jindys face. He breathed a huge sigh of releaf.

[PHEW]

"I thought I'd gotten the wrong day or something and I was just like... Oh, F***." He began to laugh at his own idiocity and strum a song that was really just a repetative base line.

"Wanna go for a walk?" Orca asked as Jindy sat playing around with the guitar. He was about to say yes when he remembered the little run in with Mundungus Fletcher and thought better of it.

"Not really, theres this guy who is a bit off his rocker down their and I don't fancy passing him again." Jindy replied to the rather off put Orca. He would love to go for a walk with her more than just sitting around here, but Mundungus Fletcher had a slight look about him that scared Jindy a little. " Wanna make a fire? no camps complete with out a fire."

" But we'd have to go get some wood." She began and saw the slight sceptic glare that was on Jindys face as though he was saying '... You must be thick as bricks...' and then realised how stupid it must sound to him."Dad said that the ministrys asked that the place look as Muggle as possible so the Caretakers don't get suspicious."

"There's gotta be enough wood around here to look like it was a real fire then we'd only have to charm it so it dosn't burn and light a magical fire thats pretty low in temprature so it looks like a 'real' fire. sound good enough to you?"Jindy questioned, looking hopefully at her so that it might inspire some in her as well.

"Alright, but we got to put it out by 08:00 or my parents will be awake, and they didn't want me outta bed before they gave me my presents." Orca looked almost guilty to be out here talking with Jindy when her parents specifically asked her not to be. Not that Jindy was complaining.

They sat there gazing into the fire and talking about their holidays. Jindy entertined her with the story of a particular run down the slope known as Zali's at Mount Blue Cow where a snow boarder had gone over the back of Jindy's skis and released the bindings. Jindy thought that it would be fun to take out the snowboarder, so he had leant forward off his skis while the bindings where still out and dived forward. He had begun to slide down the side of the Mountain on his stomach and was picking up speed when he saw the snowboarder who had done it, so he dug the left side of his body in and turned straight across her board and she had spunout and slid down the trail that lead to Jindys favourite run, which also happened to be the hardest run at the Perisher Blue Ski Resort, named Kamikasi. Jindy had then had to climb half way back up the mountain to get his skis and stocks, but it had been worth it, and Jindy liked the exercise.

By the time Jindy had finished the storie they had to put the fire out and Orca snuck back into her tent. Jindy moved all the sticks and logs behind his tent so Mr. and Mrs. Patil wouldn't see them when they walked out of their tent. Jindy walked back into his tent and rumaged through his trunk for the presents his parents had sent with him for the Twins when a voice came from the next room.

"Knock, Knock." Came the voice of Mrs. Patil from the other room, drifting through with the wind that had penetrated the tent with her entry. She walked through to the bedroom where Jindy had found the presents and was about to walk out and seeher." Ah, Jean Luc. Just coming to get you. We're about to go wake the girls up and give them their presents. Come on." She seemed so excited, as though this'd be a surprise for the girls, but Orca had said it happend every year.

"Sure." And he Grabbed the presents and walked out with her, anxious not to burst the bubble of excitement that was surrounding Mrs. Patil. He walked out of his tent and followed Mrs. Patil into their tent. It was quite spacious, alot more than what you'd imagine from the look on the outside... But Jindy had learnt that most wizards tents where like that. Mr. Patil was standing outside one of the doors, laiden with presents, and Jindy was just beging that they didn't walk in singing Happy birthday and trying to surprise them, which is what his parents had use to do. It all felt childish now, but he realised that he wouldn't know if his parents would do it to him because his birthday always occured during the Hogwarts school term, so he was always away for his birthday.

Thankfully they didn't walk in and try and surprise them or sing Happy Birthday, 'cause Jindy knew that if they did Orca would just pop her head up and say something like "... Oh, Is it my birthday?" Orca was sitting up in her bed reading while Pavarti and Bengal were still asleep. As soon as Jindy walked in there he wanted to run over to Pavarti's bed and squeeze her nose so she couldn't breath and she'd wake up all pissed off, but just as he restrained him self the night before, he didn't. He forced himself not to laugh at the rather corny scene that followed with their parents giving each a gift, thinking that if they didn't give each at the same time the other would fall over and cry. Jindy noticed that all though Orca was rather embarresed and irritated by it, Parvati was lapping up the attention like a cat laps up milk, she sucked it all up and nearly took all of Jindys restraint with her parents Attention.

When it came for Jindys turn to give presents, he gave them all together, but made sure he gave Orcas first then gave Pavarti hers. Jindy had decided to add ' Spoilt Little brat.' to his list of things he hated about Pavarti. However Jindy got a couple of browny points with parvati when she opened the present he had bought for her. If she didn't have her self restraint and angry bitterness she would have run over and kissed him for hours. Thank god she didn't. She began to tell her parents about what her Divination teacher had told her about the Clarrity Bangles that she wore when Orca opened her present. She, unlike Pavarti, hugged the Mount Blue Cow Plush toy and raved about how cute he was before she noticed the ring on its leg.

Orca had seen Jindy wearing his ring on occasions, like the time they had snuck out at night to "liberate" some food from the kitchens so that they could keep partying after the Hufflepuff vs. Ravenclaw match were they had flatened Hufflepuff by about 200 points, and knew what it did but she had never worn it. She slipped it on to the finger next to her pinky on her left hand and stared around the room. Jindy knew what she'd be seeing... The various shades of grey that represented her surroundings, the mix of different shades of red that showed the people and animals, and everything that generated heat. Orca reached over to Jindy and hugged him, making Jindy's heart miss a beat. He felt charged, like he had grabbed an electric eal by accident and was feeling the power surge through him. And Jindy wasn't the only one who noticed the hug. Parvati was glaring at the two of them shocked out of her mind, Jindy couldn't even figure out why, it was realy just a friendly hug (Unfortunatly), and Mrs. Patil was looking rather uncomfortable.

Breakfast was a rather noisy affair, considering that there was only six of them sitting around the fire they had relit. Pavarti was trying to tower over everyones conversations and the bacon in the frying pan was hissing and spitting firey globules of fat everywhere. Jindy had had to make breakfast as Mr. and Mrs. Patil weren't use to cooking by hand and so he was constantly jumping around and nocking into things as he dodged the flying objects. Mr. Patil was talking to himm as he ran the gauntlet that was cooking the bacon and eggs while trying to keep his hands burn free. The question that seemed to be the only thing in Mr. Patils mind was "Who are you going to be cheering for?" This struck Jindy as being slightly unusual as Mr. Patil would know about the Bulgaria vs. Australia match that had knocked Australia out in the Quarter finals.

The day passed with very few interesting things happening. The three (Jindy, Orca and Bengal) went "exploring" the camp site around midday and came across a few people from school. They spent a short while talking with the new captain of the Ravenclaw quiditch team, Sereventa, and her fluffy cat who, rumor had it, was really her former next-door neighbour. It was said that she had caught him spying on her and transfigured him into the cat as punishment. They talked a bit about the Quiditch Cup at school and what they were hoping for this year. Jindy just wanted to show the school that a good keeper can win the game for there team, no matter how bad the team may be. After all, the keeper is the most important player on the team, it dosn't matter how good your beaters are, or even your seeker for that matter, just as long as nothing can get past your keeper.

They also found Cho Chang in the campsite along from them, and stooped for a few minutes to talk with her. Jindy was glad his friend Elvis, Terry Boot, wasn't with them as he always acted rather strangely around Cho. Though not nearly as strange as he acted around Bengal, as Bengal was half Veela and Elvis seemeed to be very, well, sensitive to the "Veela charm" and thus quite often would over act. Bengal was quite good friends with Cho so they spent a bit more time than planned.

Elvis wasn't gonna come till the day before the cup because he had something to do with his family, Jindy didnt know what, but his dad had used a couple of favors to get himself and Terry a laiter portkey.

The after noon was just as uneventful as the morning had been and the afternoon slowly flowed into night. The camp ground looked like a sea of multi coloured fire, flickering and shimmering in the twighlight of the mild summers day. They were all sitting around the campfire talking, Jindy (while strumming his guitar) was talking to Mr. Patil about the Bulgaria vs. Australia match again, quite often pulling bullshit facts out of there arses to sway the occasional arguments that poped up their way. Mrs. Patil was juggling between conversations with Pavarti and Orca and Bengal. Orca and Bengal were talking and quite often giggling together, Jindy couldn't hear what they giggled about but he didn't really think it was giggle worthy stuff. They stopped giggling and orca threw a small pebble at Jindy." Play something." She urged him.

"What do you wanna hear?" He asked, in the hope that she didn't ask for one of the groups from the Wizards Wireless, as he didn't know much of that because alot of it wasn't designed for a guitar.

"Anything." She replied, the reply that Jindy hated the most. It also happened to be the reply that Jindy always gave to people.

"Okay, lets try a classic.

'And a love struck Romeo, sang the streets a serenade

laying every body low with the love song that he made

finds the convenient street light, steps out of the shade

and says something like you and me babe, how about it?

And juliet says hey its romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack

hes underneath her window, shes singing, hey now my boy friends back

you shouldn't come around here, singing up to people like that

any way, what you gonna do about it. He says...

Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start

and I bet, and you exploded in my heart

and I forget, I forget, the movie song

when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong

juliet..."

"Who are Romeo and Juliet?" Asked Orca, rather confused by the subject matter of the song.

"Are you saying you don't know who Romeo and Juliet are!" Jindy yelled in amazement. He didn't think he had ever met some one who didn't know who Romeo and Juliet where.

"What, do they go to hogwarts or something?" she asked, baffled even more by Jindy's exclamation.

"No, they're the most famous fictional people in the history of the planet, with the exception of Adam and Eve." He began explaining." They were the two main characters in shakespeares play Romeo and Juliet."

"Who's shakespeare?" Asked Bengal, rather flubbergasted as well. This was too much for Jindy to comprehend, he couldn't believe that two of his best friends didn't know who Shakespear was.

"If you guys don't know who shakespear is then how the hell did you do snapes essay?" Asked Jindy.

"Are you telling us that you actually figured out what the nut case wanted us to write about?" Asked Orca, excited by the news that she wouldn't be silent for the first week of term.

"Yeah, its from a skaespear play called Macbeth:

Double, double toil and trouble:

Fire, burn; and cauldron bubble.

scale of dragon, tooth of wolf;

witches mummy; Maw and gulf.

and it goes on and on for a little while like that, but the point is that these witches are saying an incantation during a potion brewing which is all wrong." Jindy explained.

" So now that we've got that out of the way, who are Romeo and Juliet?" Orca asked again, intent on finding out about it.

"I'll lend you a copy of the play and you can read through it and find out."

Jindy said."Its about two teenagers who fall in love, but their two families are at war with each other and so they can't see each other, and its a story about their fate."

"Sounds a bit too romantic for you Jean Luc." came the scathing voice of Pavarti, baiting him to snap.

"Actually it has quite an Ironic end, well written to the last letter." He defended himself with the most tact that he could muster.

"I think thats a enough for one night all to bed, come on." Mrs. Patil jumped in so as to avoid an argument. Jindy said his good nights and walked into his tent as Pavarti skulcted into her room, agrovated by the wounds of coming off second best. Or more that she didn't win. Orca hovered around the door for a few secondas before she joined her sister and bengal. Jindy Lay awake in bed, relishing the midsummers heat, and then gradually fell off into a quite, contented, and thank god dreamless sleep.



Chapter 2 Chapter 4
