Jonathan.... was heartbroken... His friend. The beautiful Delilah... An agent for Dr. Vilkenheim. He may have shed a tear. He took a step away from the girl.

"I can't believe it..." A quick turn back. "You ARE mind controlled." A triumphant step towards Delilah. "DON'T WORRY, MY LOVE I SHALL SAVE YOU!!!!" Jonathan picked her up in a fireman's carry and strode through the rest of the fortress trying to find an opening to the outside.

Eventually, he did. Jonathan took a quick step onto a bridge when the fortress decided it didn't want him in it anymore.

*FLING*

Oh, my... I'm in the air.

Drat! The evil Dr. Vilkenheim had prepared for Jonathan... Yet, somehow... The ground was soft. Jonathan was laughing when he sat up.

"You, okay, Dee?"

Harvey watched as she flipped back up and chuckled "You did? thats so cool!! Yeah.. well maybe not.. maybe you always had them but you didnt use them" he chuckled with her.. it was amazing the sort of reflexes she had he wondered what else there was to still learn about her.

Grinning as she asked if he wanted to go on the swings with her "Sure." he replied. It was his first aim, when he spotted her on the bouncing dragon thing. A michievious look came on his face "Race ye there." he said taking off at a run and laughter coming out in his voice.

Hey if you couldn't have fun just being a kid, what else was there?!

Ameliah laughed. "Maybe." she had just adjusted herself when she noticed....

DRAGONS!!!!

Ameliah squealed a little. She loved Puffs and Doggies, as well as Ducks, but Dragons were her favorite. And from the looks of it...yep. They had Welsh Greenbacks.

"EEEEEP!!! Let's go see the dragon spring thingys!!!" she squealed, already halfway there. When she made it, she had already claimed the Welsh Greenback. BUT....OH NO!!! It tried to buck her off!! But NOTHING was going to keep Ameliah from her dragon, and she clung on expertly.

Harvey watched as she adjusted herself when she squealed a bit before saying that she wanted to go the dragon springy things.. before he could even help her off the swingset she was already there and he followed her as she got onto one and it tried to buck her off.. Harvey looked a little scared thinking that she was going to get hurt with this dragon thing but she managed to stay on it "Be careful.. that thing doesnt seem to like you!" he said to her as he watched her on the dragon ride

No. Welshy. Loves me.

Ameliah rolled her eyes. "Puh-lease. This is the charm put on it that doesn't like me. Welshy here LOVES me!!" she had still managed to stay on.

Minerva was happy to be outside. She walked to the newest part of the grounds, always changing things she thought. Setting down her bag she moved around looking at the playground. She decided to just sit and watch everyone else explore the area.

"Yay!" Ronnie exclaimed. "A race, eh? Your on, Mr. Isaac!" she said, giggling and running as fast as she could, a little ways behind him.

She finally reached the swings, and realized Isaac had beat her there. "I was just going easy on you." she said simply, even though it wasn't really that true. She grinned and hopped on a swing, and began moving her legs so that she was going higher,

and HIGHER,


AND HIGHER!

"Weeeeee!" she cried, swinging back and forth. She loved swings, they were VERY fun. These felt more like riding a dragon that those...little spring rockers.

Tay was wearing a black tank top and skinny jeans. She didnt feel like being colorful anymore. Taylor was too sad to even think of wearing colors. She saw Minerva and nodded to her.

Minerva got up and walked over to Taylor she could see she was upset. She hated seeing all her friends so upset. She hugged her "How are you?"

Harvey watched as she was still on the dragon thing "I know its just a charm.. well then the charm dont like you and be careful.. well you seem to be doing good!.. managing to hold on!!" he said as he watched her stay on.. she seemed to be enjoying riding that thing "What?! I have competition with a dragon over you?! Oh how am I ever going to win?" he asked jokingly as she said that Welshy loved her

Tay hugged back, "Dreadful....." She frowned, "But there is no way to fix it....." Taylor sighed.

"It will be okay, just let the hurt feelings heal and then it will get better." she gave a smile not really sure if they were okay. She didn't want Taylor to feel weird now knowing that she was the girl when Minerva had liked him the entire summer.

Tay sighed, "I accidently heard what he said in the passageway......" She shook her head, "I hurt my best friend..... or exbestfriend.... or whatever we are......" Taylor frowned and rubbed her arms.

Ameliah laughed. "Just stay yourself. That's good enough." she smiled.

She, very carefully, let go of the handels. She held on using only her knees. "I wonder if this is how Americans spend their time. Riding bulls." Hmmm. She didn't find a point in that. Bulls are, like, cows. Not as exciting.

Unless they're ALIENS!

Yeah. Aliens like cows. Of course!! How could she not realize that?!?! NUUUU!!!!

Minerva sighed and sat down on the grass. "Oh you did, yeah that was rough." she looked up at Taylor hoping she would sit down as well. "Taylor , I'm sorry if you think I lied all summer. I knew the entire time. See why I said the girl was prettier then me?" she gave a small smile.

Tay sat down beside Min, "yeah i did...." She shook her head, "It wasnt your place to tell me and i understand that. I'm not upset that you just went around it...." She sighed, "I'm not as pretty as you." Taylor shook her head.

Minerva played with the grass, "Well you are, but it doesn't matter." she looked at Taylor "Tay everything will turn out okay. He just needs support right now, he'll get through this and so will you."

Harvey laughed "Oh trust me that wont so hard with you around.. I am always myself with you" and some other friends.. but she didnt need to know that right now.. "I dont think they do.. I am sure they have other things to do as well" he smiled.. like changing hair and eye colors "Like hanging out with their friends and stuff" he smiled.. still watching her on that dragon.. well there wasnt much competition between him and that dragon.. thats what she said.. just to stay him and it would be enough.. that isnt so hard.

Tay sighed, "You are way prettier than me." She wrapped her arms around her knees, "I miss him like crazy....." Taylor frowned.

Daichi continued to laugh out loud as he lay half on Thea half on the surprisingly soft ground. The shock that the ladder had disappeared had only been there for a short notice and Daichi had found it funny now he thought about it. It was brilliant! And now that he really looked at the playground, he noticed that alot of the devices had a magical touch to it. Some seemed to be even floating in the air!

But now the realisation that he half lay on Thea dawned on him and Daichi stopped laughing. Not completely cause a few more giggles escaped his mouth and got off of her. Seeing hersun glasses askew on her face the fourth couldn't help it. He tried to keep it in but laughed again. "BWAHAHA your glasses!" He pointed at them , not realizing that his own were askew on his face as well.

OH MR.DUCKLES! Now Daichi's eyes widened as he opened up his bag to see if his plushy was okay. "He's fine~" he answered after taking the duck out and actually checked it out. "Yes well that was the decision you had made, deal with it" whaaat? it was true right?

"You wanna ride those dragons!?" he shouted after noticing the spring rockers and looked hopefully at his Gryffindor friend and partner in crime.

Ameliah shrugged. "There are muggles, though, right? From Texas?"

And Aliens. Never. Forget. The Aliens.

"Then go talk to him. He probably feels awkward, but it's going to take effort on both sides to make this normal again."

Getting to her feet, Thea straightened her sunglasses. Raising her eyebrows, she leant forward and flicked one of Daichi's lenses and snorted.
Brushing down her clothes, she picked her bag up also.

Yawning slightly, she raised her eyebrows again as Daichi spoke. 'Wow, since when did you get so touchy?..' Thea stuck out her tounge and turned to look at these dragon rockers her friend was shouting about. Her truthful answer was 'no defiantly not?' but after catching a glimpse of his face she sighed. 'Okay.. I'll race you.' Thea rolled her eyes behind her glasses. She knew Daichi would most likely race off as soon as he heard her say that, so she braced herself for everything to go flying.

Rummaging in her pocket, she brought out a sugar quill. Popping half of it in her mouth, she waited for Daichi duckling to calm down a bit before offering him it.

Jez hadn't been on an actual playground since she was four and Keegan had snuck her to the Muggle park across the road (their parents had been furious). The closest she'd come since was the giant treehouse in her first year. Now there was an actual PLAYGROUND!!
She took a leap at a rope ladder, climbing it to the top and running to the slide. She shrieked in delight as she went down. If anyone saw her and told her not to be so immature, she'd slap them around the head.
Jez's five minutes back as a four-year-old lasted about ten minutes before she saw Jordan sitting alone on a swing. Wow, he looked more miserable than Jez had ever seen him. So she went over to try and cheer him up.
"Hey," she said, taking the swing next to him. "What's the matter? You look a little blue. Well, not really blue," she added quickly, not wanting him to think his meta powers were going weird. "Blue as in sad, not literally blue." She smiled at him, eyebrows raised. "So, what's the matter, lion boy?"
