A/N: Christine and Clover are put in this story 'cause I can put 'em in. Don't worry; they're amusing little creations and will be staring (no not staring per se, because the books are called "Harry Potter and the . . . " so-on so-forth) in a different fanfiction. Besides those two, it's basically your good ol' trio you've come to know and love! So I'll leave you with the 2 most bloodcurdling words ever be read when reading my works: Happy reading! *Laughs insanely*
"Whoa . . . this place is huge!" commented Ron when the gang arrived at their destination.
Hermione laughed. "It's supposed to be large, Ron: It's an amusement park. More than 1,000 people come here per hour."
"Hermione?"
"Yes?"
"Please don't tell me any sort of statistics when we're on summer holiday."
Hermione huffed as Harry, Christine and Clover chuckled.
"So where to first? C'mon you guys; you all know more about these places than I do."
Clover smiled mischievously. "Christine and I have this all planed out. Christine?"
Clearing her throat, Christine prepared herself to say an important speech.
"Roller coasters, roller coasters, and more roller coasters," she said simply in a Hermione tone of voice.
Hermione turned pale, Ron raised an eyebrow, Harry nodded and Clover was excitedly jumping in her place.
"Roller coasters?" asked Ron.
"Those," pointed Harry. Ron turned and tilted his head backwards to get a good look at the massive, towering, manmade thrillers.
"Oh. I see," Ron smiled weakly. "Can't be as bad as they seem. Are they?"
"No way! You'll have loads of fun, Ron!" exclaimed Clover, Christine and she not particularly listening to what the others had to say. They were much too busy drooling over their steel prey.
"Sure . . . loads of fun," gulped Hermione.
Harry smirked. "Afraid of heights Hermione?"
"Oh please. I don't have time to be afraid. Such a waist of one's life . . . always in fear of something silly like heights."
"Great! So there are no objections then? Can we go now?" asked Christine enthusiastically and very impatiently.
"Uh, well-"
"Brilliant! Let's go."
As they rounded the corner to the first stop on the list, Hermione feigned enthusiasm for a nearby attraction.
"Oh look! That ride looks like fun! Does anyone feel up to braving it with me?"
Clover scrunched up her face when she caught sight of Hermione's interest. "Gee Hermione, I didn't take you as the kind to be amused by kiddy rides..."
They all turned to study the miniature (well, when compared to the anticipated roller coaster) merry-go-round.
Christine broke into hysterics.
"P-please tell me y-you're k-kidding me, Her-Hermione!" she gasped between laughter.
Hermione glared at Christine and the rest as a patch of pink appeared on her face. "Well I want to go on it."
Clover patted her on the head. "I'm sure you do, but we big kids want to go on the big kids ride."
"DO YOU KNOW THE PROBABLITY OF OUR SURVIVAL OF THAT DEATH-TRAP?!" Hermione screamed. She promptly went to the sign and read aloud:
" 'Experience the world's tallest, most twisted inverted roller coaster. Alpengeist reaches a height of 195 feet and a speed of 67 mph. Alpine "skiers" are launched on the most chilling ride of their lives as this snowbeast twists an innocent ski lift into six staggering inversions and a 170-foot drop.
" 'Continually voted 'a top ten steel roller coaster,' Alpengeist is a breathtaking avalanche of adventure, sending riders on a high-speed journey through countless flips and spins.' "
[A/N: The above is a direct quote from the site's description of Alpengeist so don't sue me 'cause I'm pointing out that it's not mine so there ha! *Takes deep breath* Phew, that was a mouth full!]
Christine rolled her eyes and pointed at Clover and herself. "We're still alive, aren't we?"
Harry sighed and went to the exit of the ride and came back shortly with a bunch of children.
"Okay, Hermione. I talked these kids into sharing their thoughts on this ride." He motioned to one of the children whom appeared to be the youngest. "Now tell the nice lady over here what you thought of the roller coast-"
The child burst into tears, cutting of Harry.
"I WANT MY MOMMY!" he shrieked, kicking Harry before running away.
Ron, Christine, Clover and Hermione stared after the little boy as he ran off into the crowd.
"Bloody hell! My shin!" Harry cursed under his breath so as the children wouldn't be able to hear.
"Well that went well," said Ron, still in awe of the boy's strength.
"Umm - on to the next one then!" said Clover in her attempt at optimism. "What about you, little girl?"
The little girl smiled up at them eerily. "I thought we were going to die, and so I pushed mommy out of the car and now she's swimming with the fishies."
Hermione's jaw dropped and tried to make a run for it, but Ron was too quick and managed to grab her by the arm.
"Ron, let go! These kids are insane!"
"Uh . . . you can't possibly judge all of them by just two of them," said Christine, trying not to scream for park security. "On to kid number three. What did you think of the ride?"
The possibly oldest boy of the group still had wide eyes and was shivering.
"Excuse me . . . little boy?"
Suddenly his expression changed from scared-to-death to--
"I'm *so* going again!" he shouted. "And no one's going to stop me! You hear me?! No one!"
The gang was taken aback as the child lunged forward.
"NOT EVEN *YOU!!*" the once calm boy bellowed. He took off towards the entrance to the roller coaster, all the while laughing menacingly.
Ron blinked a few times then turned to the rest.
"So!" he said, clasping his hands together. "Who's up for the merry-go-round?"
A/N: You guessed it! It's the end of the chapter, and *only* the chapter! Trust me, things will get worse . . . much worse! *More evil cackling is heard as the tired writer finally drifts off to sleep*
*Wakes up suddenly* Oh! And *please* don't forget to review, *please!* Don't let my first posted fanfic go unreviewed! *Sniffles* What a horrible fate for my story! *Hugs story to bits* All you have to do is press the li'l button in the corner, and type something not even a sentence long about how you felt about my story! Quick, simple and you're done!
Thanks a ton!
