HARRY POTTER'S YOUNG ADVENTURES
CHAPTER 6: SHIPWRECK
Harry was scared. He was in the middle of a strange city full of
strangers, and Sita was gone. Let me tell
you what happened to him.
Harry woke up from his boring dream of reading letters from school,
for he had fallen asleep on the boat. Yes, that's right. A boat. They
had gone on a cruise around the world. He had woken up because the
boat was being rocked by a storm. When he went on deck, he heard
someone shout, "Abandon ship!" indeed, the storm was so rough, that
the boat would sink soon, and Harry saw why. A hurricane was
coming, and waves were coming to them very fast, and very high.
Suddenly, a lightning bolt hit the boat in the middle, and Harry fell
into the water.
"Harry, help!" cried a voice. Harry turned around in the water, and saw
Sita. She was being dragged by the strong current towards the wind funnel
that was coming closer. So was Harry. Suddenly, a piece of metal from
the ship flew towards him, and he was knocked out.
LATER
Harry woke up floating on a piece of driftwood. He looked around and
saw more debris from the ship in the water and (yuck!) dead bodies.
He also saw Sita sitting on a piece of debris, like him, with a fishing
pole and a bucket already full of fish. He quickly swam towards her.
She heard him turned around, and smiled.
"Harry! You're alive!"
"Sita! It's a miracle!" then they hugged.
"I got food." Said she.
"Smart idea."
"Well, someone had to keep their head, don't they?"
So, they just kept floating and fishing silence for a while, then Harry
asked, "What are we going to do?"
"We're going to use a compass I found to direct us to America again,
paddle like crazy, drink from water bottles I found floating around, and
pray. Oh, and talk."
Harry sighed. This was going to be bad.
