CHAPTER 24

I fall backwards through the air.

Down down down.... I remember halfway that cats always land on thir feet so i pretend i am a cat and start meawing loudly, hoping it will save me from death. I remember rolling off the cliff and how i had to stay in the hopital for three weeks. How long will i have to stay after jumping iff a plane? I don't have time to go to the hospital anyway. I ahve a date with Shrek.

I see the ground coming towards me and i close my eyes tightly, waiting to land on the hard ground.

Instead, land on something soft and bouncy. I open my eyes in surprise and i realise i have landed on an old woman and bounced on her stomach.

"I'M ALIVE!!!!!!!!""" I screech and jump up and doen happily. Unfortunetely, the woman i landed on does not look so good. Her eyes are closed and her tongue is hanguing out of her mouth. There is also a pool of blood ariund her head.

I drag her body and roll it into a bush. Then i get up and start running. I ahev no idea where i am, but hoepfully i can meet someone who can tell me where i am and how to get to the restaurant.

After a few minutes of runninhbi bump into someone.

"Hello! Can you... wait-" I look up in amazement. "Snape!"

. "Hi" he says sadly

"I'm so glad o see you!" I grin but then my smile fades and i start sobbing uncontrollably. I tell him about everything that happened, about having to leave and then jimping from the plane. He holds my hand and lets me cry into his shoulder. I already miss my family so much. But i would sacrifice everything for shrek.

"I don'y jnow where to go" I cry into jis shoulder. "I have 7 minutes until my date with Shrek and i can't go back home and- where are you going?"

I can't believe it. I'm trying to vent my problems and he starts walking away from me.

"Where are you going?" I ask again.

He doesn't reply. Angrily, i take off my shoe and throw it at snape's head. It misses.

I draw snape's face in the sand on the floor with a stick and then take my anger out on it, punching it furiously.

Then i hear a roaring noise nearby.

A lion. I think, paniscking. I lie on the floor motionless pretending to be dead.

"Julia!!" I sot up abruptly and turn around.

Snape?? On... a motorbike???

"Get on quick. I can take you to your date"

I acream happily and jump on the back. Then i remember that i nnedd to wear a helmet, so i pull a leaf off a tree and put it in my head. Safety first

We drive off and i look anxiouslu at my outfit.
