"The tower of roses."
This is mostly serious than humorous. I've changed the humor genre to drama because this is now different. And new suspense have been growing now. Please review. A new feedback would be great.
As thought Jake felt like screaming because he kept
seeing the two reporters popping up everywhere. So
then, they fight all the time which gets Selena and
Jake thinking they wish they can use the crucio curse
on them to show how seriously they don't want the
bloody interview.
"Just one Interview?" Darla asked pleadingly, Jake
started walking away as if she doesn't exsit.
"Told you they don't want a bitch like you!" Rita
said spraying spit at Darla.
"Why don't you just say it, not spray it. And shut up
you bug eyed bitch!"
Rita gasped, "You Ugly, Barbie double, slut!"
Darla lets her have it and Rita blocks the blow and
yanking at the hair. Jake was watching with slight
amusement and dark grin spreads a bit. If they keep
this long enough, then we aren't interupted. He pulls
his polished wand out and spoke few charms. Rita was
finding herself frozen a bit, Darla was starting to
feel like turning into a tree. Jake smiles in
satisfaction and walked away. Selena watched all along
and starts talking to Jake.
Jake had nearly tripped over the steps but Selena
catches him, "Ah hell, i forget. Now i'm Neville."
Jake said smarmy. Selena nodded and they walked all
the over to the great hall.
Jake realized what he was looking at. As he approaches
the mirror of Erised, he sees himself completely with
many people who are smiling and beaming at him. Jake
sees he was holding boks which were written by him(The
Jake in that mirror). A woman who stood by his side
looking beautiful, elegant, musta have great
personality, and a little lad not more than five years
old stood in front of Jake. Jake looked down to see
that boy, and now knew he looked similar to him. My
son? The Jake in the mirror puts his hand on his don's
shoulders, smiles at Jake, winks at him and then, Jake
grinned. He suddenly remembers Dumbledore's words to
Harry's before. He backed away trying to to be
possessed by the mirror's power. So much he wanted to
have that true as possible, but it holds no truth or
knowledge. Selena came along to him and peers into the
mirror too. She had tempted to get Jake but then,
peers into the mirror. Seeing her truest desire. She saw herself sitting alone reading endless books. She glanced up (her mirror form) and waved to her as twin girls come running out of the field towards her. Selena blushed slightly when she saw the tall man walking along behind them but she pulled away before she could see his face. She knew who she wanted it to be and she knew that her wish couldn't have been real.
"That's creepy." She muttered.
"Come back here!" Selena and Jake turned like deer towards the sound of the bickering reporters and ran down the hall quickly.
"That was annoying." He muttered.
"Jake!" Both of them turned and smiled when they saw Fleur hurrying towards them. She flashed a million dollar smile and brushed her perfect hair aside as she came to stop beside them. "I was wondering what you two were doing." She said shyly.
"We had a little run in with two reporters. They're still trying to kill each other." A loud scream could be heard from the direction that Jake was motioning towards. Professor Snape came towards them from down the hall and sneered down at Jake and Selena.
"I suppose that now we have two more celebrities in the school, how wonderful." He said snidely. "Perhaps you two and Potter should start a fan club."
"No thank you professor." Selena said with icy politeness. "Sorry to disappoint you but you can't be our number one fan now." Snape glared at her.
"Five points from Gryffindor for that comment." He said coldly. A smirk slowly began to form on his face. "Clearly, fame isn't everything." He began to walk away and Jake made a rude face behind him. Fleur was giggling softly.
"Jerk." Selena grumbled.
"I never thought you'd have the guts to say something like that to his face." Jake said thoughtfully.
"Just because I get good grades doesn't mean I'm a coward." Selena said indigently. "I'll leave you to your little girlfriend." Fleur blushed at her words. "Don't do anything I wouldn't. And you'd better watch him." Selena turned towards Fleur. "We Americans are pretty bizarre, especially the boys."
"Hey!" Jake said.
"It's true."
"It's not the guys that form the fan clubs and dream up ways for all of the characters to have every couple in existence!"
"You write fan fiction with some pretty interesting couples."
"So? What does it matter if I like slash?"
"Please! I don't want to think about that!"
"What? Little Drakikins and Potty together make your stomach churn?"
"Shut the hell up!"
"Why should I?"
"I'm leaving. I don't have to take this shit from you."
"It's because you have a crush on him, isn't it."
"No! Leave me alone you pyro!" Selena left quickly, her cheeks a flaming crimson. She didn't want to admit that it was true. She didn't mind reading slash at all, but when she actually had a crush on Harry then slash was the last thing that she wanted to imagine.
As she swept through the hallway, she let her mind wander. She thought about her upcoming assignments and how they would interfere with the TriWizard tournament. After a while she began to wonder who the voice had been that had told her not to make a wish all of those weeks ago. It felt like a life time since she had last been at her home. She didn't want to think about what her family had done when they suddenly found her missing.
Just as she was walking through another hallway, she crashed headlong into a suit of armor. She yelped as she fell over, rubbing her head.
"Damn metal tin." She growled. The armor clanked in protest at the remark.
"Selena . . . ." Selena looked up to find Harry smiling slyly at her. She felt herself blush when she recalled what she had seen in the mirror and look away. When she turned back, Harry was walking away.
"Hey! Wait up Harry!" Selena ran after him, shocked at his sudden agility. He began to walk swiftly so that Selena only caught glimpses of him as he passed by corners and up strange stairs. After a while she stopped to catch her breath and realized that she was in a part of the castle that she had never been to before.
Harry came out from behind a suit of armor grinning widely.
"Jeez, why did you run ahead of me?" Selena asked, annoyed at having to chase him all around the school to an uninhabited section of the school. "I'm not that bad that you want to get away from me, am I?" He smiled that same, strange smile.
"I wanted to show you something." He said.
"Really? What?" Selena asked. He came towards her and took her arm. She felt herself blush as she was led to a slightly opened door. Tugging her in, Selena wondered why her heart beat had increased dramatically. Something didn't feel quite right. Why was Harry doing this? Why was he leading her into this strange room? And why did she have a sinking feeling, as if someone she didn't want to meet was in that room?
Jake finally convinced Fleur to go on a walk with him around the school without making it seem like a date. He led her out to the cool school grounds and even managed to put his arm around her without making it seem imposing. As they walked, Jake's fingers curled around the necklace beneath his robes and yelped when he felt a scorching heat! He pulled the necklace out and was shocked to find the crystal inside burning a terrifying green.
"What is zat?" Fleur asked curiously.
"Why is it glowing, that's what I wanna know." He mumbled to himself. He glanced up at the castle and was shocked to find a similar pulsing light coming from one of the tower windows, one that he had never been to. In fact, he had never heard anyone talk about it at all, and it was bizarre enough for Hogwarts to be the talk of the school.
"It's coming from over there." Fleur said when she noticed the light. "But what can be zer that is so magical?" Jake shrugged but he couldn't get the sense of creeping dread out of his stomach. He wanted to check on Selena.
"Do you want to go inside? Its getting a bit cold and the classes will be starting soon." Fleur nodded disappointedly. She had been planning to kiss him but she could see that he was preoccupied. This only encouraged her more.
"Very well." She said as he allowed her to steer them both towards the castle. She gave him a goodbye kiss on his cheek before Jake left Fleur apologetically and made his way to Dumbledore's office. Once inside, he quickly explained to Dumbledore what he had seen in the tower. Professor Dumbledore frowned as he listened to Jake's description of the strange tower. He explained how it was a lime green with a blue turret and literally hundreds of roses and ivy mingled together to form a cobweb of green and red.
"There is no such tower in all of Hogwarts." The Headmaster said gravely when Jake was finished.
"That's impossible. Fleur and I both saw it." He said.
"I assure you, there is no such tower. I have looked for such a place because of its importance in the history of Hogwarts and the world." Jake starred at Dumbledore in disbelief.
"What?" He wished that Hermione or even Selena was around to tell him what the hell that was.
"The Tower of Roses is legendary. It was said to have been built by Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin, and an elf prince after the fifth Elf War."
Just like Selena kept rambling on about. Jake thought.
"It's a sacred tower which is said to hold the weapons, scrolls, diaries, talismans, and magic of that elf prince and the founders of Hogwarts. No one but a Chosen Mage can enter or even see it. The fact that you saw it must mean that you have some kind of connection to one of these Mages. That or Ms. Fleur has a very interesting power of her own. Besides the Chosen Mages only veelas, leprechauns, centaurs, and magical people can see it quite easily. All magical animals that cannot speak to humans can see it as well." Jake was listening raptly but he felt his mind wandering. He wanted to know where Selena was. It was strange, but the two always ended up finding each other in odd places, as if being separated was dangerous.
"Mr. Jake?"
"Sorry Professor, I was just wondering where Selena was." Dumbledore sat back and starred at him. He suddenly looked very old.
"You don't know where she is?"
"No." Jake said, puzzled that Dumbledore looked so grim. "Why?"
"There was a spell on you when you first arrived here. I noticed it after a while even though it is impossible to detect. It seems that you two are bonded together for whatever reason. In fact, I believe that you have never spent more than five minutes being more than at least twenty feet apart."
"That isn't true! We sleep in different dorms!" Jake said.
"Your dorms are only ten feet away from each other." Professor Dumbledore pointed out. "And I've seen you suddenly change your course walking and bump into her for no apparent reason. You are bonded together whether you want to be or not." Jake arched an eyebrow.
"Well, we're in different places now. I don't know where she is."
"Are you sure?" Jake opened his mouth but no words came out. Strangely enough, he had a pretty good idea where she was. Maybe it was the strange glowing around his neck or maybe it was his growing anxiety to find Selena, but he knew that she was somehow in that Tower of Roses.
"Is there anything dangerous about that tower?" Jake asked slowly.
"I don't know. The legend is that angels have control over it." Jake didn't feel quite relieved to hear that. "Of course, there is also the vast amount of doors and keys which lead to other realms and worlds." Dumbledore said slowly. "One of the students supposedly found it and returned to tell everyone. Of course, two hours later he disappeared and only found twenty years afterward." Jake gulped.
"So talking about the rooms is bad."
"Going there at all is dangerous. With the upcoming tournament, a disappearance would cause uproar. I relieve you of your classes for the rest of the day until you can find her and bring her back. I would assign a teacher to go as well, but I don't think they would be able to find the tower." Jake was standing to leave when he turned to Dumbledore thoughtfully.
"Can I ask Harry Potter to come look with me? I think he'd be able to find the tower too." Dumbledore smiled in amusement.
"In your world, is this book called 'Harry Potter and the Tower of Roses'?" He asked jokingly.
"No." Jake said. "It's called 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'." Dumbledore starred at Jake in shock before smiling weakly.
"Yes, Mr. Potter may accompany you. Tell him that he is excused from his classes and if he must ask someone, the teachers shall all know." Jake nodded and left the room. Dumbledore shook his head tiredly. "I never should have entered that tower." He mumbled softly.
This is mostly serious than humorous. I've changed the humor genre to drama because this is now different. And new suspense have been growing now. Please review. A new feedback would be great.

Rita gasped, "You Ugly, Barbie double, slut!"
Darla lets her have it and Rita blocks the blow and
