A/N: Thanks to all those who reviewed. And no, I have not forgotten about
Change of Scenery. I plan to write another chapter very soon.
Em- That WAS creepy.
Julia- I hope you do enjoy it!
The Captain************
The luggage was finally all on board. Jade and Emilia began looking for the headmaster. They found him outside on the front deck, watching all the people on the dock. His attire surprised the girls. Like them, he was wearing Muggle clothes. But his definatly showed a bit more personality.
Albus Dumbledore wore jeans and a T-shirt with socks, sandals, and shades, a normal Muggle combination. Normal, besides the fact that his shirt was a hot pink Hawaiian print, his sock were purple, and his sunglasses had half- moon frames. They recognized him right away.
As they walked over, Dumbledore continued to gaze out at the docks. Just when Jade was wondering if they should say something, he stated, "Beautiful day for sailing. Don't you think so, Miss Jade?"
Jade nodded, unsure of what to say. But she was saved the trouble of answering when Emilia spoke up. "Professor Dumbledore, the baggage is all on board. You told us we were going to meet the captain."
Dumbledore grinned, his eyes twinkling as he turned to them. "Thank you, Miss LaRosa. I almost forgot! Right this way!" At that, he marched across the deck to the door leading into the cabins. The girls followed him obediently, but curious to see who would be the captain of their voyage.

Dumbledore stopped at a white door. Jade noticed there was no doorknob and wondered how they would get in. But her question was soon answered when Dumbledore suddenly said, "Ginger Newt" and the door slid away to reveal what appeared to be the bridge.
They walked over to where a man in a white uniform was hunched over a control board. All the controls of course were working on their own. A giant wheel in the middle of the room was rocking slightly. Jade saw no other crew members. "Duh," she thought, "the ship will sail by magic."
The man in the uniform straightened up, saying in a gruff voice, "Good day, Albus. Should be ready to leave in a few minutes." Emilia and Jade gasped when the man turned to them. His face was scarred and part of his nose was gone. One normal eye peered at them, while another bulged and looked at Dumbledore. He wore a captain's hat, slightly askew to cover the strange eye. Jade looked down and saw that one of his legs had been replaced by a wooden one.
Smiling at them, Dumbledore said formally, "Miss Jade, Miss LaRosa, I'd like to introduce you to your captain, Alastor Moody."
A/N: Like? I got the hat Review! over the eye thing from book 5, which I am currently Review! reading. So other than that, this story Review! won't involve the OotP plot or characters. Righto! (Don't you just love subliminal messaging?)
