But... considering he couldn't see much in the way of rocks around, he decided to just go with whatever the girls were doing. Sigh.
"Avis!" he commanded from his wand, to no avail.... .... ahem, now was not the time to FAIL him, wand!!!! "Avis!" he repeated, and with his focus trained on producing birds they did indeed erupt from his wand tip and flocked with the others to devour the bugs. Bye bye buzzzzzzards.
He was only just beginning to notice that a part of his neck was itching, itching like it was on fire... no doubt he'd been bitten by something. Were these bugs poisonous? Did anyone have a bezoar on their person? Ahem...
Nevertheless, Zeke continued along their way silently, that was, until they came to a stop at a dirty pond thing. Was Maggie really that desperate?
Admittedly, he could really go for a drink. He was sure that half of his body's water somehow managed to extract itself from him and was currently condensing on his back along his spine, around his hair line and was even dripping off the end of his nose. "Why bother cleaning it when you can charm it?" he asked as if what Maggie was suggesting was the silliest idea ever. Non-verbally he cast a short burst of the Aguamenti Charm in Maggie's direction. Hehe. A spritzing did sound pretty good though.
But wait, did that water just move?
"I think there's something in there," Zeke observed. Quote:

That spell had to be on the list for another reason, but soon enough Hady and, surprisingly, Maggie had conjured some birds and started to run. Followed by Zeke after he’d conjured some as well, and she’d sighed. It had been her idea, people. Don’t all take credit for it.
Just to make sure she didn’t get bit or stung or whatever, she traced the bird shape with her wand. “Avis!,” she cast, turning and following the others deeper into the jungle before she’d even noticed if the spell had produced any birds. The important part was that she wasn’t hurt at all, or itchy.
The note had done a good job of keeping them out of her mouth anyway, but she’d stuck it back in her pocket as she’d broken through a patch of ferns to see the other three near a pond. She realized exactly how thirsty she was at the same time she saw the jet of water shoot toward Maggie, but walked nearer to the pond anyway. Professor Bellaire wouldn’t poison them, would she? It was probably as clean as the water they’d had during the summer trip, anyway. But her eyes went to the surface of the water as Zeke had suggested something was in there.
It was too much to ask for it to be a baby Nessie. She knew that, but she still wanted to find out. Breaking off a frond from the fern she’d stepped through, she reached over to poke at the water with it. She wasn’t dumb enough to use her wand, or worse, her hand. It was better the fern get eaten than her, especially as she saw the fish chomp off three inches of green.

Tightening her fingers around her wand a little she kept her mouth shut about it. What was important was getting rid of the pesky bugs which they'd done and moving on.
Following Zeke further through the brush and trees she whispered softly to him, "I'm sure we'll get to use dragons at some point, otherwise they wouldn't be on the list right?" She gave him a small grin hoping to cheer him up a bit before she took notice to the pond.
The water was most likely clean but yeah something was certainly swimming about and it didn't look friendly. Hady watched as Brooklyn poked at the water with something only for the water thing to eat it.... that wasn't a good sign. "I really don't think so..." she muttered with a shake of her head replying to Brooklyn's question/statement. Using the sleeve of her shirt she wiped her face and then pushed her damp hair back off her forehead. This humidity was gross and her throat was dry making her really thirsty. Think Hady...
"We need cups or something..." She muttered to herself mostly as she once more unfolded the parchment from earlier her eyes scanning of it's contents.

Maggie was too slow to react - not expecting it after all - to get out of the way of the water sent her way. Which was how she ended up DRENCHED. Or, you know, somewhat wet at least. DID ZEKE HAVE A DEATHWISH???????? If not he'd just done a very VERY stupid thing.
"Rictusempra!" She shouted without thinking, pointing her wand at the Gryffindor.
