Part 3

Amanda gave a short laugh after a few moments, and the whole area stopped. It wasnt Amanda laugh, however... it was the strange sound that they heard, almost like someone clearing their throat.

"What was that?" Teazer asked, half way through a flip. She landed on her back, the breath knocked out of her.

Amanda laughed once more. "You guys know that this place is called Island WannaHockALugie, right?"

A random ammount of uneasy 'yesses' followed the question.

"Well, Island WannaHockALugie is named so because of the... I suppose we can call it a hock-canio..."

"Hock-canio?" Misto looked at her in confusion.

Amanda gave a sigh, and suddenly a loud HOCK was heard. She quickly pulled out a large black umbrelle, and pulled Misto, Tugger, Erik and Elphie underneath it.

"Why did you-"

Suddenly, large Goobers rained down upon the clearing.

"The Hock-canio likes to clear it's mucus glands..." Amanda had to shout over the screams that ensued. Tugger and Misto stared wide eyed as Teazer and Mungo were covered in Goober.

Erik looked out at Christine, who was shreiking to the top of her lungs, and batting furiously at the Goober snot.

ELphie gave a soft laugh, however, as a particularly large Goober belted Glinda right in the head, and a shreik of horror escaped her lips.

Amanda looked out, her head shaking slowly. "I should have warned them of the trials of the Island before the came." At about that time... Raoul was pelted with three Goobers, and the poor boy passed out from sheer disgust.

After watching Glinda, Carlotta, and Christine scream and run around in desperate circles trying to avoid the rain for quiet a few minutes, the pelting subdued.

"I thought that you liked them?" Mungo spoke softly, gesturing to the two Goober soaked Cats.

"I do... I just like you guys the most... and there is only room for five under this umbrella."

"Oh..."

None of them were going to argue with that.

Erik looked at Christine, who was a lovely shade of green. "Maybe I should go and check on her?"

He started to step out, and another loud HOCK was heard, Elphaba pulled him back under the umbrella, making him stumble onto her just in time. A large Goober fell in the place that he had stood seconds earlier.

Erik reach out to steady the falling Elphie. "You saved me..." He stated in bemusement and wonder. She blushed, which was a wonderful feat for a green woman.

"You needed it."

"Well," Amanda said, and pulled the umbrella back down. "Two people are leaving. Goodbye Wizard, Goodbye Piangi."

The Wizard stood in shock. "I'll be back!"

He and Piangi disappeared in a cloud of purple smoke...

"And you will..." Amanda mused to herself.

Raoul stood up, his hair plastered to him with Goober. "Where are the cannons?" He asked dumbly. Amanda laughed slightly, and shook the Goobers off of her umbrella, smacking Raoul in the face with them. He passed out once more.

"You've met with one of the trials of the island now. Build your shelter, and prepare yourselves to be split up.'

She handed the Umbrella to Erik. "Share it with only 1 person... I mean it."

"Now what?" Christine asked, slightly angry at the treatment.

"You have thirty minutes until the next erruption. I'd get to working on a shelter if I were you."

They all paled, save for Erik, and scrambled to work.

Amanda laughed and disappeared.

That's the end of this part. Hopefully, I'll get it up soon on
