Now, onto the chapter!
The Jungle
"Wow. He's a muggle!" Ron gasped the next day looking at Raine in amazement.
"What's a muggle?" Raine asked.
"Oh, a muggle is someone who doesn't have ma-"
"Um, Ron means someone who is a Misfits fan," Sakura said.
"Then… you must be one too, Ron," Raine said.
Sakura nodded, "Yes he is!"
"Wicked. Now I think I'm gonna grab a bite to eat," Raine said, "See ya!"
"Bye," Sakura waved to him.
Ron looked at her.
The second Raine was out of sight, Sakura turned to Ron and said, "You can't do that! You can't tell anyone we have magic."
"Sorry! I forgot…" Ron said.
Suddenly, Hermione and Harry ran up to them. They both looked scared.
"What's wrong?" Ron asked.
"Those students… the ones that we never really knew a lot about, Matt, Ashley, Diana, Brinley, and Carli, they've all disappeared! We've looked everywhere!" Hermione said.
"Really? I remember Carli and Diana say that they weren't feeling well and really wanted to go back to Hogwarts, but… that couldn't have done anything, Dumbledore wouldn't-" Ron said.
The four of them looked down the hallway and gasped.
"Dumbledore?" Harry said.
"Yes, Harry, it is I." Dumbledore said. "I see you are wondering what happened to a few of the students. They wanted to leave, and they weren't interacting a lot with muggles. But then most of them live with muggles so I decided to let them go back to Hogwarts."
"Y-You can do that?" Ron gasped.
"Yes I can Mr. Weasley." Dumbledore said.
"But then, why did Hermione and I come," Harry asked.
"Because of the others who are here, like Mr. Weasley. You are here to help those that are not familiar with the muggle world."
"This is too sudden," Sakura said.
"It may seem so, but everything will change soon."
"How?" All four of them asked.
"I'm sick of this!" Draco Malfoy yelled storming down the other side of the hallway. He looked like he was about to explode.
A moment later they turned back to where Dumbledore had been standing and saw nothing but an empty space.
"What's wrong Malfoy?" Ron asked innocently. "You look… angry."
"Shut up! I want a change of scenery! Just something different! Anything different! I'm tired of wandering in this stupid place, caged up!" Draco yelled.
"That's great." Sakura said flatly. "Now if only I had a pin."
"What?" Hermione laughed lightly, confused with Sakura's strange comment.
"A pin… to poke Malfoy with, so I could make him blow up…" Sakura said.
"He does look like he's going to explode," Ron said, grinning.
Meanwhile Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle were tormenting Colin, Ginny and Luna. Goyle had stolen Colin's camera and was smashing it like a brainless monkey against all the walls in the room. Crabbe was doing what he usually did, which was eat, and was holding the wands of the three being tormented captive. Pansy was using her wand to turn all three of their heads into pumpkins, and after they smashed and returned to normal, repeated what she was doing. Unfortunately she forgot that she was in the muggle world, and wasn't allowed to use magic.
"Stop it!" Ginny hollered once the pumpkin on her head smashed. Suddenly the ground started to shake as if an earthquake was going on. All six of them fell to the floor.
"What's going on?" Draco asked in a scared tone. His eyes were wide and he became very alert.
"An earthquake?" Harry said. A loud noise erupted from below them.
Ron was pressing his hands to his ears as the ground shook violently beneath him and everyone else. He opened his eyes for a moment, took his hands off his ears and pointed at a long green twisting plant, yelling, "What's that?"
Hermione barely heard him, and soon answered, "It looks like a vine, Ron! Nothing to worry about, as long as it's just-" A vine had crept up behind Hermione and now had her struggling to break free from it's powerful grip. It covered her from her mouth down.
"Wow! I guess it wants Granger to shut up too! Stupid mudblood, she needs to learn when to stop talking!" Draco snickered.
"Oh my god!" Harry yelled as the hotel began to collapse.
"I don't want to die!" Ron cried, shutting his eyes tightly. He could fell himself falling and then hitting something solid.
"MY WAND!" Pansy cried. Her wand and broken into four pieces during the fall.
"I'm alive!" Ron screamed opening his eyes. "Ginny where are you?"
"What happened?" Harry asked, rubbing his head after the fall.
Suddenly they heard a high-pitched girlish scream. Harry Ron and Sakura all looked in the direction of the scream and saw Draco. Sakura immediately started laughing the second she saw him, eyes still wide, mouth open in amazement and fear.
"Draco screams like a girl!" Sakura laughed.
The blonde haired boy turned towards her with the same look on his face, as if it were stuck that way. He didn't say a thing; he just started waving his arms around.
The three of them looked around. The mall had now become a jungle. They were sitting in a small clearing surrounded by sky tall trees, small shrubs and bright colour flowers and plants. The building had disappeared completely, and all they saw was green and brown in many different shades along with unusual fluorescent colour flowers. It seemed like there was no end to this place. As it went further beyond where they all were, it became darker and creepy. Nobody knew if anything lied beyond the clearing and if something did, what was it? The only sunlight coming in was from patches of sky where no leaves covered over; everywhere else was in shade.
"You idiot!" Sakura cackled. "You're wish came true! You got a change of scenery!"
"WHAT? We have no place to sleep, eat, and no protection from whatever's out… there!" Harry gasped, looking into the jungle surrounding him.
"Ginny!" Ron called, and then he saw Hermione hanging upside down, covered in vine, hanging from a tall tree and rushed over to her. "Hermione! GINNY!"
"Ron, I'm over here with Colin," Ginny said.
"My camera…" Colin said sadly. The remains of it were nothing but the lens and strap used to carry it.
"Shut up about your camera! What about my wand? FIX IT DRAKIE!" Pansy cried.
"NO!" Draco yelled. That was the first word out of his mouth since the incident that previously happened. "I'm not doing anything for you anymore! I'm not listening to you anymore! I hate you Pansy! Get it in your head that I hate you!"
"Ugh… what happened?" Goyle moaned, followed by Crabbe.
"Look around," Harry said.
"What happened? Why are we here? Why do you have to be so mean Draco?" Pansy cried.
"I'm not mean. You're demanding and pushed me too far. Get over it!" Draco replied.
"Has anyone seen Luna?" Sakura asked sounding genuinely concerned.
"I haven't seen her. She was with us just a moment ago," Ginny said.
"Hermione! Oh, how can we get her down from there? She's so… high up." Ron said.
"Here," Sakura said, and snapped her fingers. The vine that ensnared Hermione burst into orange flame. Within seconds it broke and Hermione fell to the ground.
"Oww…" Hermione groaned. "That hurt."
"Sorry, but I couldn't stop that! And I bet you're happier not hanging upside down and being trapped by a vine," Sakura said. "I have to find Luna, and Ami and Martin."
Hermione nodded. "Yes. That was horrible."
"I'll help you find Luna," Harry said to Sakura. "The rest of you stay here."
"Thanks," she said, as the two of them walked away from the group.
"How did she do that?" Ron gasped.
"What was that?" Draco asked.
"Remember when Luna was explaining that Sakura knew elemental magic. That's what Luna meant," Hermione said.
"You're awfully quiet Sakura," Harry said.
"Yeah, I know." Sakura said.
"I know you're worried about Luna. But she'll be okay. She can take care of herself."
"I'm aware of that."
Sakura sighed and walked ahead of Harry. She didn't want to talk; all she wanted to do was find Luna and her friends.
"I wonder if Ami got sent back to Hogwarts too," Harry said, hoping that Sakura would reply, but she didn't. She didn't feel unusual not replying to what someone said. She was born quiet, and liked to keep her feelings inside. She hoped that Ami didn't get sent back to Hogwarts. She wanted someone around who knew her. Ami was one of the only people she knew who actually knew who she was.
"It's really warm here," Harry said. Sakura still didn't answer, she was too busy making a small fountain of water come out of her finger and using it to keep herself cool.
Harry sighed heavily and decided it would be best to just not say anything. Then suddenly Sakura shot water at him. He was soaked from his waist up.
"Sorry it was an accident! I was trying something," Sakura apologized.
"It's okay," Harry said. "I'll just get you back later."
"Sakura? It's you!" Martin's voice called out.
"Marty! You're okay," Sakura said, running towards him and leaving Harry behind.
"I'm fine." Martin said.
"Good." Harry said catching up to them. "Do you know where Ami and Luna are?"
Martin nodded and motioned them to follow him.
"How far are they?" Sakura asked.
"Not far," Martin said.
Soon they came to a smaller clearing than what Harry and Sakura had been in earlier. They found Luna up in a tree lying on her back staring at the sky of green leaves. Ami was sitting on the ground looking really bored. They looked pleased to see Martin return with Sakura and Harry.
"Where is everyone else?" Ami asked. Sakura and Harry explained and answered all the questions they had and then began to head back to the group waiting for them.
Soon the sun had set and the jungle had become pitch black. Harry and Ami were using their wands to light the way around the numerous trees and bushes around them. It looked like someone, probably Hermione, had made a fire, as they could see a tiny light in the distance where the clearing was.
"I see Ginny!" Luna said, she ran up behind a sleeping Ginny and scared her awake.
"Okay, everyone is here. That's good at least." Ron yawned.
"Yeah. Now lets just hope that nothing comes and tries to attack us," Colin said.
"Nothing will come and attack us… I hope," Hermione said lying down on the ground to sleep. "Goodnight."
