Harry Potter in the Land of Magic

*I’m going to need a bigger broom.*

The thought didn’t really register as anything more than idle chatter in my head as I took in the landscape of the magical land. A tingling feeling started rising in my chest, and a grin crept across my face.

*This is it.* My very first time entering another world, and I was already exploring. But there was something else, something that felt wrong…

I stopped for a second and looked around. The landscape before me was almost familiar, like those paintings you see of an ancient city somewhere in Europe. Tall walls with battlements stood before me, broken down in some places, but otherwise largely intact. Above me shone the sun, but it seemed darker somehow, more purple than orange. It was then that I noticed that I wasn’t alone on this hillside. Sitting by her feet were two girls, one with blonde hair and another with red hair.

I jumped off my broom and walked towards them. “Hey!” I called out to them, “What are you guys doing here?” The blonde girl looked at me curiously, while the redhead stared at me emotionlessly. They started to speak at the same time, each saying something different.

“Hel-lo? What are you doing here?” asked the blonde girl sweetly. She had a cute face and freckles dusting her cheeks. She seemed like she could be a pretty good friend if we ever met again.

The other girl spoke next, this one being the redhead who had yet to say anything other than stare at me blankly. Her eyes were narrowed slightly from what I could only describe as annoyance and irritation towards me for interrupting their conversation. Her white dress reminded me of those you would see on Snow White or even Alice in Wonderland; it certainly suited her well. Her voice carried an air of authority about it; she was probably used to getting her way all the time. “How did you get into this world? You have no right to be here! You should leave now! Go back where you came from!” she spat at me venomously.

I turned towards the blonde girl and smiled sheepishly, hoping to calm her down a bit so we could start communicating properly. Unfortunately for me, she only seemed angrier after seeing my smile; she stood up angrily and pointed her wand at my face threateningly. “I said go back where you came from! This is our land! Leave now or I will make you leave! Go away now!” she shouted at me angrily through tears which were starting to form in her eyes. As much as I didn’t want to hurt her feelings by leaving so hastily without saying goodbye or thank you or anything like that…I really didn’t feel like getting hexed! So I quickly hopped back on my broomstick and flew off as fast as possible from their sight before either of them could try attacking me with their magic wands again…and miss horribly, of course!

I continued flying for some time until I spotted a lake below me; judging by its size alone, it must have been massive! Large enough to hold almost all of Tri-Cities inside of it easily! A quick look around told me that there were no signs that anyone had ever been near this place before except for myself; there weren’t any footprints or anything of the sort surrounding the lake itself either…probably because nobody had ever approached it before! Anyways…better check out this lake since I was already here anyways! It would be a shame not to check out such a large body of water after all…at least that’s what I told myself anyways so that I wouldn’t feel too guilty about leaving those two girls behind…those poor girls though…They went through all that trouble just so they could try attacking me with their wands when all along they didn’t even realize who they were attacking…they failed miserably too! With how awful they were at spellcasting, I wonder if they really were real witches after all….or if this was just some sort of elaborate prank set up by kids who thought dressing up as witches would be funny…nahhh someone would never do something like that….right?
