The next morning as the sun rose and the golden light of morning seeped
through the Great Hall's massive windows every face was gloomy.
Minerva led them out in a line of two to file on the bus. They all boarded the bus. As Minerva counted the heads of the students Ron piped up, "What about our pets?" McGonagall was taken aback, she hadn't considered that. "How about if we let Filch tend to their animals?"
Snape suggested. A picture began to form in Minerva's mind of Filch holding up a student's animal and saying, "You're Mrs. Norris food you are." And dangling the animal in front of the cat. "Um no, I think Hagrid would be better qualified. Notify him now." Minerva replied quickly. "Filch can drive the bus."
A few moments later Filch boarded the bus and slid into the drivers seat wearing his same pessimistic expression. Once everyone was accounted for Snape signaled Filch who started the flying bus and took off through the clouds.
Their first destination was New Mexico. During the flight Malfoy was doing everything in his mortal power to make Hermione's journey a living hell. "999,999,999,999 bottles of beer on the wall, 999,999,999,999 bottles of beer! You take one down pass it around 999,999,999,998 bottles of beer on the wall!" Screeched Malfoy.
Hermione refused to believe she was in this position. "I am not here listening to Malfoy chant these annoying little sing-alongs, I am at home safe, and.and.and.will you SHUT UP!!!!"
After about an hour she had finally lost it. He had worked his way to 997 bottles. At her outburst he simply smiled and pouted.
"Oh, Granger, you made me lose count, oh well guess I'll have to start all over again." He inhaled. "999,999,999,999 bottles of beer on the wall."
Hermione put her head in her hands. "I'm in hell." She concluded before falling asleep.
She was suddenly shaken to a waking state by Malfoy. "Granger, Granger, there's only one bottle of beer on the wall!"
"Wonderful." Hermione said. Malfoy continued, "One bottle of beer on the wall, one bottle of beer, take one down pass it around no bottles of beer on the wall."
There was blissful silence for a moment but then Malfoy again inhaled, "Negative one bottles of beer on the wall."
Hermione's face fell before she began banging her head repeatedly against the window. Luckily as she began the bus stopped.
Everyone shuffled off the bus. Hermione looked over at Ron, he had a horrified expression on his face and she didn't blame him.
Then she glanced at Harry, his glasses were missing and his hair was standing on end, Hermione didn't want to know why. Would you?
Snape spoke up "Here in New Mexico we are going to eat their very unique food. Follow me."
The eight students and Minerva followed Snape into a Mexican restaurant. Snape ordered for everyone a little of everything. The entire gang sat at one gigantic table.
"What's this?" Malfoy asked poking a red pepper. "That is a jalapeño, I wouldn't eat it if I were you." Hermione said pulling out a book.
Draco eyed it and promptly shoved it in his mouth. His eyes grew wide and he leaped from his chair and began running around the table, smoke emitting from his mouth. Hermione did not raise her eyes from her book but replied to his outburst calmly, "I told you that that was a jalapeño, if you weren't listening that's not my fault."
Snape suddenly appeared from the back garbed in a poncho and sombrero with clips attached to his fingers and singing 'Oh Sombrero'. He one by one adorned each head with a Sombrero.
Ginny looked up took in the full image of Snape and instantly turned away. "Oh I am scarred for life!" Ginny cried as he placed a Sombrero on her head. "Ron don't look!" She warned her brother.
"Look at what.eeeeeeee" Ron turned away, too late to spare him.
Afterward everyone piled back onto the bus all except Malfoy and Hermione who were at the back wall of the restaurant. Malfoy was leaned against the wall, Snape's sombrero over his eyes and Hermione was tapping her foot in agitation.
"Come on Malfoy the bus is leaving." She huffed. "No Engle's Siesta." Was his only reply (A/N: For you people out there that don't know what that means it means ' I don't speak English I'm taking a nap')
"Malfoy I don't have time for this!" She growled and kicked him. "No Engle's siesta." Malfoy returned more forcefully.
Hermione took a jalapeño and shoved into his mouth. "Alright I'm up, I'm up!" He spat.
"Thought you didn't speak English" Hermione sneered. "Shut up." He replied flatly. "Oh no" Hermione gasped as she watched the bus speed away. "This is all your fault." Minerva was counting and noticed a missing pair. "Oh dear!" she exclaimed. "Filch Turn around we've forgotten two!" Filch sneered, "Nasty little boogers get what they deserve!"
