A/N Hi-ho everyone! :) Been long enough eh? Sorry about that, I just didn't know what to write for this story. Who knows, maybe I'll update the others soon also. By the way, I've finished Journey to The Two Towers, in case you're wondering. I've also made a website, you can find it at: groups.msn.com/FellowshipoftheMovies. Hope you like it! Well, anyway, enjoy the chapter! I wrote it while on a sugar high and listening to random CD's, right now it's Fellowship of the Ring. Be afraid, be very afraid. Oh! BTW! I got new muses, in case you didn't already know. Meet Sirius, Dean, Tonks, Aragorn, Legolas, Alex, and Keladry. No spoilers for OotP in this chapter because it hadn't come out yet. Well, have fun!
Chapter 5: The Luggage
(a/n The Luggage is from Discworld by Terry Pratchtt. Don't know what I'm talking about? Pick up the damn books then! . . .yeah. . .anywayz! Onwards!)
"So," said Wormtail, trying to strike up a conversation, "you've done this before?"
"Yeah," said Sirius, "we went to see The Two Towers last month, it was a lot of fun."
"They left out Shelob," muttered Harry.
"Yes Harry, we know already!" said Hermione.
It was then that Harry saw it. . .well, actually they all saw it, but no one really understood the problem except Harry, so only Harry cared that she saw it.
"No body move!" said Harry, holding out her arms so that the people behind her stopped.
"Oh, what now!" yelled Dumbledore.
"It's. . .it's. . ." started Harry in a way that suggested a dramatic ending to the sentence. "The Luggage!"
Everyone stood in a collective silence for a few minutes, trying to comprehend whatever it was that Harry had just said.
"Harry," said Remus, "it's just a suitcase."
"Just a suitcase!" yelled Harry. "It eats people!"
They could have sworn it moved. . .
"It eats people?" repeated Fred.
"Great," said Neville, "we have a person that's invisible, and now a box that eats people."
George rolled her eyes, went up to the suitcase, and poked it. "See Harry? It's just a suitcase."
Okay, it definitely moved that time.
"Um, George?" said Dobby. "I think maybe you should just, um, leave it be."
Did that thing just growl?
Some poor person had chosen this particular time to walk up to the group.
"Watch out!" screamed Harry.
The person looked up from the book she was reading, 'Prisoner of Azkaban,' "Huh?" she said as she stopped.
"Please tell Chelsea here that that box is just a suitcase and that there is nothing to be worried about," said Malfoy.
She looked at the suitcase, "Is it supposed to have a dozen tiny legs?"
Silence.
"Run for it!" screamed Harry as she grabbed the girl and ran behind a building where everyone else soon was.
Except for George who came about a minute later screaming her head off.
"It chased me!" she said, panting. "That damn box chased me!"
"I told you!" said Harry.
"Harry," said Ron, "what exactly is The Luggage?"
"It's made of sapient pearwood and it eats people," said Harry, she then broke into a grin, "It's also my favorite character, and I have to get a picture of this!" She started walking out from beyond the building.
"Oh no you don't!" screamed Hermione as she pulled her back.
"Um. . ." said the new person. "I don't mean to be rude, but, who are you?"
"We are going to see a movie," said Dumbledore. "Chamber of Secrets to be exact, want to come?"
"Uh, sure. . .I guess," she replied.
"You have to have a nickname from the books," said Ron.
"Ok, let's see," she thought hard about what her nickname should be. "How about. . .Cho! She seems nice."
Everyone shrugged, "That works."
So, as the group set off again, they didn't hear two girls giggle in the bushes over by where they had just been.
"Oh, that was good," said one.
"Let's catch up with them later," said the other. They took the mechanical Luggage and set off after the group with a bag and a suitcase full of tricks for the girls that they would soon find out later.
A/N Well, that's it for now, hope you liked it! I'll update sooner then last time, I promise. I have to finish this story before Prisoner of Azkaban comes out so that I can write one for that as well. Well, see you all later, bye!
