Re: Ward 10
Half-blind, practically naked, and wandless. Wonderful. He felt like he was sitting in a lukewarm bath. It made no sense, and he had to wonder if he was in some kind of vivid dream - or a vision? But the visions were over now, surely... surely... Anyway, he was definitely in his own body, so that was out. He could tell by the way the wet stuff was lingering in his mess of hair and dripping off the ends. Yuck.
If he was dreaming, it seemed like something inspired by one of Dudley's video games, or one of those science-fiction movies. He pinched himself, just in case. "Ow," he muttered to himself. "Okay, not dreaming." He fumbled for the edges of the bath thing. All right, new plan. No wand, but it wouldn't be first time he'd cheated... Destination, Determination, Deliberation.... He pictured Hogsmeade and concentrated. Nothing, not even the tightness in his stomach that usually came right before the spell took hold. So much for that idea.
"C-Can you Apparate?" he asked the stranger, hands slipping on the glass as he scrambled to tip himself over the edge. His teeth were chattering now - great.
