Chapter 2: Far Away From Home

As I awake, or come back into reality, I see him. He's lying on his side, and staring at me. When he sees me looking, he smiles. It's been so long since I saw him smile that I had to smile back, and yet I frowned upon the darkness that was around us. It wasn't home. It was a different place. He saw me frown and he looked around. He frowned also as he stood up and went to walk around but there was an invisible barrier. He banged right into it and fell on his butt, which made me laugh. He looked at me with a hurtful expression on his face, but he took joy in my humored expression.

"That's right, laugh at the injured." He said as he stood up and poked the barrier. "So how do I get through this?" He asked me.

"Like heck I'm supposed to know." I answered. He looked at me.

"Like that's supposed to help us right?" He asked sarcastically.

"You keep talking like that, and you'll turn into Snivellius." I said, and he looked back at me with horror in his eyes. "Just kidding." He sighed in relief. I got up and saw a hole in the barrier that suddenly became white. "You see that hole right there?" He shakes his head. "Are you blind? It's perfectly seeable."

"Really? You must be special then." He said, then smiles.

"Shut up. Here, come here. I'll take you through the hole in the barrier." I said, motioning to him. "Come close or we both won't fit." I said as he comes closer. I put my arm around him, and get really giddy. Well, we walk through the barrier, and I let go.

"Well, let's go!" He said, cheerfully, and walked away.

"Ok……" I said and followed him.

So, I just realized something. It's dark, we are in a place we don't know, and he was leading us. This has bad situation written all over it! So I stopped, and asked him, "Do you know where we're going?" He looked shocked, but shook his head, no. "Well, how do you know if we're heading in the right direction?"

"Ummmm... An invisible map?"

"Nope."

"A little voice in my head, telling me the right direction to go?"

"Nope."

"A wizard's compass?"

"Maybe… If you had one."

"You got me there."

"So let's use our wands!"

"Best idea you've had all night." He said as he pulled out a rubber chicken that he thought was his wand, and tried to cast a spell with it. "Point Me!" It surprisingly didn't work. "Now why didn't that work?" He asked staring at it, trying to get it to work.

"You do know that that's a rubber chicken right?" He stared at me dumbstruck.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Oops!" He puts away the rubber chicken and pulls out his actually wand. "Point Me!" It didn't work but turned into a rubber chicken. "Forge and Gred! Stupid fake wands, but it looks so real!"

"I thinks that the point."

"Ohhhhhhh!"

"Here just let me do it."

"Ok." He says, as I pull out my real wand.

"Point Me!" I say, and I'm tugged to the way we just came. "See! I knew it wasn't a good idea for you to lead us in the dark!" He pouts.

"Sawwy, Hawwy." He said, babyishly. He then gives me the puppy dog eyes. I try to not be effected, but they're to strong.

"It's ok, let's just go back." I said, and walk away with a happy Paddy behind me.
