'Let's see....' Howl had succeeded in making it into Wanda's dream....but where was Wanda? He walked straight and soon enough he heard a loud howl and a familiar laughing...
"So she's here too," He started to run faster in the direction of the laughing and stopped once he reached the disturbing sight. He was right about her being here, but Wanda was on the ground under the paw of some...wolf!
"Howl...so glad to see you joined us!" Madame Suliman smirked and motioned towards Wanda and the growling wolf. "Do you like what you see?" She laughed causing Howl to ball up his fist; his hair now black.
"I can't believe you were my old teacher....using people to get to me." Howl knew that she was quite sensitive when it came to their past together. As her student, Howl observed what ticked her off, just so he could use it against her later; and this was now the time to use it.
"Yes, but your old teacher knows what she is doing, because it's working. Now, shall I remind you that your friend is in a life or death situation...?" He bit his bottom lip and looked over at....wait, her looks!
'She's....the one from the potion shop...'
"Wanda!" He stepped forward only to be tackled out of the way by the wolf. How could he have been that stupid? All along, she had been put under some spell...maybe even trying to tell him...but he was blind.
"Ooh, now he has breakfast and lunch." He held his hand straight and smacked the wolf across the face as it whimpered and jumped off of him. Madame Suliman's eyes widened as the giant wolf ran back to her side and lowered it's head.
"Hmp, it's soft just like you."
"Arg! You fool!" Their surroundings began to turn red as a giant hole opened up in the ground. "You both will get lost in this place!" Wanda's body was slowly being pulled closer to the black hole. Howl ran over to her, picked her up and started to run; but it was not successful.
"You won't get away...heh, you'll get sucked in, and you won't even have a mind to think!" Madame Suliman and her pet vanished leaving Howl and an unconscious Wanda.
"Markl...this would be a good time for me to get out of here..." Howl had forgotten how to get out of here, and despite what he told Markl (if he had been touched he would be stuck) he knew that had to be the only way!
"MARKL!" he was inching closer to the portal.

Markl ran after the squirrel and jumped in the air landing and holding the squirming creature in his hands. He let out a sigh of relief and frowned at it.
"You troublesome little thing. Ah, Master Howl would kill me if I let him get stuck in some dream place," Markl sat up with a smile on his face and wiped the sweat off his head.
Wait.
"You troublesome little thing. Ah, Master Howl would kill me if I let him get stuck in some dream place," Markl sat up with a smile on his face and wiped the sweat off his head.
Wait.
He felt around and then looked down in his hands. "NO!" The squirrel smirked once more and then lightly tapped Howl as he fell over on his side. It ran off as Markl crawled over to his Master, tears in his eyes.
"Master...Howl."
Tears ran down his face. He wiped them away and continued sobbing. "I failed you..."
"Markl..."
"Master Howl, you're in a better place...constantly dreaming. I'll miss you.."
"Markl?"
"NO! Don't try to speak to me...it won't make me- Master Howl?" He looked up with twinkling eyes into the eyes of Howl, who held the girl.
'How did it happen that fast...' Markl grinned and rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"I guess the Earth troll wasn't telling the whole truth.." Howl mumbled and looked down at Wanda. At least he knew who she was now, and that was was under a spell.
But the only thing is...did she really make it out of the dream?
The only way they could find out...is by waiting for her to awaken...if she ever does.
