Hey everyone! Thank you so much for the reviews! They really keep me going!
Hermione awoke the next day shivering. You wouldn't really say that her night had been restful. The ground was rough and uneven. Rocks everywhere. Draco had already gotten dibs on the tree and there was no arguing with him unless you wanted a black eye. Hermione looked up in the tree to see Draco still asleep and snoring extremely loudly. Hermione sighed as she bit into the banana. She would have to eat it sparingly since she didn't know if they're many banana trees around or any other sources for food. Hermione heard Draco mumble to himself as he jumped down from the tree. He started to smile menacingly.
"Have a good night Granger?" he asked.
"No," said Hermione bitterly. Draco said nothing and started towards the forest.
"Well I'm going exploring if you don't mind, you can stay here or you can come I guess," said Draco unwillingly.
"Fine," said Hermione as she gathered the little she had with her and started after Draco. She didn't want to be alone in the forest and at least Draco could protect her. They continued like this, walking absentmindedly into the forest. Didn't really matter where they went since they were pretty much lost anyways. They walked by waterfalls, cliffs revealing breathtaking views of the forests below. Hermione didn't want to get too close to the edge, which would give Draco the opportunity to push her off.
"Wow, the Amazons sure are interesting, Malfoy," said Hermione as she gazed in awe at the magnificence of the trees that were towering over her. Draco only shrugged and moved on deeper into the forest. He began to grow tired and sat down and leaned his back against a tree. Hermione set the banana's down and joined him. Draco closed his eyes for awhile; he looked deep in thought.
"Umm, Malfoy what are you thinking about?" said Hermione suddenly. The eerie silence was creeping her out.
"Why do you want to know mudblood?" Draco snapped back at her. Hermione scowled. Draco turned to say something to her when he saw a chimpanzee a few feet from them, eyeing the bananas next to Hermione. Draco started to hit Hermione on the shoulder,
"Granger! Scare that monkey away! It wants our bananas!" Draco cried. That was the only food they had and he didn't want to lose it.
Meanwhile at Hogwarts . . . The students were gathered at their tables after classes for dinner earlier then usual, wondering what was going on. Dumbledore rose from the staff table to tell them a funny but surprising announcement.
"This year, we shall be watching a most intriguing show in which two of our own students will be in the Amazons with little supplies and no wands. They are also completely on their own and these students are none other then Miss Hermione Granger and Mr. Draco Malfoy," the students began to murmur and some were laughing, "Now the screen should be coming down any minute now. Alright, Mr. Filch please dim down the candles," said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling as a TV screen of some sort appeared before the students. It was large enough for everyone to see. They could see Hermione and Draco sitting under a tree and a chimpanzee eyeing their bananas.
Back in the Amazons . . .
"Granger! Grab the bananas! Quick!" said Draco as he saw the chimp make a go for the bananas. Hermione hastily reached for the bananas but the chimp was quicker and it started to scamper back into the forest.
"Argh! Oh no you don't!" Draco bellowed as he started to run after the chimp. Hermione followed close behind.
"HEY YOU FREAKING MONKEY! GIVE ME BACK THE BANANAS!" Draco yelled after the chimp.
"DAMN THAT STUPID MON-" Draco did not finish his sentence, for he had tripped over a rock and fell face first into the mud.
Meanwhile the students at Hogwarts were howling with laughter.
"Oh! Drakkie! How is going to clean himself up without me there to help him!?" Pansy cried in dismay. Even the teachers where able to let out a chuckle.
Back in the Amazons . . .
Hermione could not suppress the laughter after Draco had tripped and fallen into the mud. The chimp * lucky for him * was able to get away. Draco got up, covered in mud from head to toe. He wiped away the mud from his eyes and his gray eyes scanned around him and he began to curse most furiously. Hermione was able to tone down her laughter to giggles. Draco shot her a death look through his muddy face.
"Oh erm, sorry Malfoy," Hermione said quietly. Draco stomped away, cursing and stomping through anything that was in he way as he went by. Hermione meekly followed after him, giggling now and then when Draco's back was turned. Hermione was surprised that she didn't see steam emitting from his ears.
"So, Malfoy what are we looking for?" Hermione asked. She was beginning to grow tired of tramping through the rainforest after Draco.
"Well what do you think? I'm trying to find a place to wash this * curse * mud off me," said Draco angrily.
"Ah, that explains it," said Hermione quietly as she followed behind him.
They finally found a small lake being supplied with a raging waterfall. It was actually quite peaceful, only being able to hear the rushing water and nothing else. A muddy Draco walked carefully up to the edge and put his hand in the water. Draco quickly tore off his robes only leaving him dressed in an undershirt and boxers. He climbed up onto a rock and jumped in, getting Hermione wet in the process. Hermione scowled and sat on a rock, being able to get a clear view of everything around her.
"Malfoy! Be careful! They're piranhas in the Amazons you know," Hermione taunted. Draco didn't seem to have heard or he was trying to ignore her completely. Fear got the better of him.
"Um, Granger . . . What are . . . Piranhas?" Draco asked, looking around him trying to spot any unusual activity.
"Oh they're just a type of fish that can well you know . . . eat you, they live around here you know," said Hermione casually as she looked at her nails. Draco gave a quick yelp and scurried out of the water and quickly dried himself off.
"Well, I think that's enough swimming for the day," said Draco unceremoniously as he put his robes on again.
It soon began to grow dim in the Amazons and soft rumbling of thunder could be heard in the distance. They kept on walking, trying to find a suitable place to sleep for the night. They couldn't sleep in a tree unless they wanted to get electrocuted. They trudged on, their robes were torn and scratches covered their bodies. The rain began to dribble, then it grew harder and more intense. It soon came down in sheets and a fierce wind started to blow and loud crashes of thunder and blinding flashes of lightning lit the darkness around them.
"This . . . SUCKS!" Draco cried, he was wetter then he was when he went swimming. Hermione nodded in approval.
"We need to find shelter!" Hermione yelled over the thunder to Draco. They continued until they found a small cave, plants covering the entrance. It was large enough for 2 people. A loud crack of thunder broke the silence and Hermione and Draco quickly got under to find that it was fairly dry. Hermione began to shiver uncontrollably under her damp robes. Draco, seeing that she was freezing, allowed her to share some of his cloak with him.
"T-t-t-t-thanks Malfoy," said Hermione as she ended the sentence with a sneeze.
"Whatever. I just don't want you dying on me, Granger. I need you to tell me how to do stuff out here and what and what not to eat," said Draco casually. Hermione looked up at him and saw that his blonde hair wasn't sleeked back anymore with whatever he used. He actually looked quite appealing.
