Duo's Family Outtakes
By Ammie Hawk
Disclaimer: Duo rocks!
AN: Okay, this one is also really short, I think that's why I kept it out of the original to begin with cause I had thought about writing this scene. Hopefully ya'll like it though.
P.S. I know I skipped chapter 7 but I couldn't come up with anything that really needed to be added or expanded on in that chapter, if ya'll think there is something that could be added, please let me know.
Outtake Chapter 8
A Trip on the Knight Bus
The pilots, along with Harry and Sirius, followed Snape and Malfoy out of the airport and onto the crowded London street. Instead of hailing a cab, like the pilots thought he would do, Snape led them around the building until they were in a secluded area. He then reached into his pocket and pulled out his wand, raising it into the air. A loud BANG sounded and six guns came out of hiding as a triple-decker, purple bus appeared.
"Magic, Duo," Harry sighed, putting his hand on his brother's so he'd lower the gun.
"Oh, right," the braided teen chuckled, slipping his gun away.
The other pilots followed his lead, and then entered the bus behind Snape. They were shown to their seats on the lowest deck by a pimply faced young man, who identified himself as Stan Shunpike.
"Well now, if it innit 'Arry Potter," Stan said as soon as Harry took his seat next to Wufei again. "Wha' choo been doing? 'Aven't seen you since las' year."
"I've been alright, Stan," Harry sighed wearily, knowing Stan to be quite talkative from his first trip on the bus. "Been keeping busy with school and things."
"More than that, if wha' the Prophet says is true," the conductor continued. "Read bout you facin' You-Know-Oo in the Ministry not too long ago."
"Listen, Stan, I'd really rather not talk about that, if it's all the same to you," the raven haired wizard shook his head.
"Alrigh'," Stan nodded. "'Ey, wan't that Sirius Black that got on wif you?" he asked. "'Eard 'e was cleared o' all charges. Funny innit, firs' time we met 'e'd jus' broken ou' o' Azkaban."
"Don't you have somewhere else you need to be?" Wufei leveled the talkative young man with a glare.
"Right you are," he shuddered slightly before beating a hasty retreat to his seat behind the driver.
"You didn't have to be so mean about it," Harry said quietly, not looking at his seating partner. "He was just trying to be friendly."
Before the Chinese teen could answer, the bus gave a mighty lurch forward, followed quickly by another loud BANG and they were off, rolling across a country lane at speeds which rivaled that of the gundams. At the initial shock, the six former pilots were forced to grab their seats, just to remain in them, however, after a few moments were able to recover and maintain their balance quite well.
There were several stops, though varying parts of the country, before the bus finally gave a final BANG and was rolling down a rather quiet London street. The Knight Bus came to a stop next to a small courtyard in the center of the square and Snape indicated for the pilots to get off.
"That was the best bus ride ever!" Duo said, bounding off the vehicle. "Why can't every bus go that fast? Then the whole world would be like one big gundam, it'd be awesome!"
"Of course you would think so, Maxwell," Wufei rolled his eyes, smacking the braided teen upside the head.
"Wuffers!" he exclaimed, rubbing his abused head, however, Heero's hand appearing at the base of his braid cut off anything else he was about to say.
As the pilots surveyed the area, they noticed a slight problem. The house they were instructed to go to didn't seem to exist. They all turned to stare at their escort.
Ammie: Another outtake down, only two more to go folks, yay me! Anyway, please let me know what you think.
