Prologue
It all started one dark evening at the end of September, at a beach by a lake where two friends sat hidden together under a blanket.
They had been there for a while, and were supposed to leave earlier, but they just couldn't manage to.
The food was long ago eaten, and they were starting to run out of both wine and cigarettes, but they just had to stay a little longer.
At this moment, they whispered secrets to each other, secrets they only dared to whisper when no one else was there to hear. The mood was light, but trustful.
"What is your biggest fear?" one of them asked. She was pale, with black, straight, short hair and a tiny smile in her eyes. Her name was Vanessa.
The other one of the friends gave her a thoughtful glance. She had a softer look than Vanessa, with pouting cherry lips, and dark brown hair, that curled its way down her back.
She was called Hayley, and she seemed to finally have an answer to the question.
"My biggest fear is what will happen when it ends", she said.
"When Harry Potter ends?" Vanessa asked.
"Yes."
"When we have seen the final movie, and there will be no more releases. My biggest fear is a life without Harry Potter," Hayley whispered, and Vanessa was nodding in agreement.
"What if we could enter that world for a day, what would you do?" She asked.
Hayley started laughing.
"Hitting on Snape of course", she said smiling.
"Yeah, why do I even bother to ask? You are like the most obsessed fangirl ever", Vanessa sighed.
Hayley just smiled, and they both sank into their own personal fantasies for a while.
"Look! A falling star!" Vanessa suddenly shouted.
"You´re right, that means we both have a whish", Hayley whispered.
With a smile they closed their eyes, braided their hands together and concentrated.
Without warning, there was an explosion of light, and they were both tossed backwards, screaming.
"Oh, bloody Merlin, I never get this right…"
A voice was heard. Slowly they opened their eyes.
An unfamiliar woman was standing right in front of them, she was only wearing a short, blue dress, and her blond hair was flying in the wind. Vanessa was the first to speak.
"Who the HELL are you?" She shrieked.
"Your personal MAL fairy at your service. But you may call me Adenydd."
"MAL?"
"FAIRY?"
The confusion was written all over the friends faces, but Adenydd mostly seemed impatient.
"Yes, I am a Magical Assistance Licensed fairy", she said quickly.
"Ehm, yeah right, what are you on?" Hayley asked skeptically.
"I clearly see that you two are clear cases of unbelievers, but fortunately enough, I am licensed to prove to you that I am telling the truth. Look at that stone over there."
They just had time to spot the stone before it suddenly turned into a frog that hurried to jump into the bushes.
Both Hayley and Vanessa were speechless.
"This is some kind of joke. I don't know how, but it has to be", Vanessa mumbled.
"But what if it isn't? What are the fairy doing here, and why us?" Hayley asked.
"I am here to fulfill your wish of course!" Adenydd said, while watching her nails in a bored way.
"Oh no, come on, that only happens in fairy tales, like Cinderella…" Vanessa looked skeptical.
Adenydd suddenly raised her head and looked at them.
"Oh my, do you seriously think Cinderella is a fairy tale?" She giggled.
"Eh… Yeah…"
"Well, it was quite a dramatic event. Carelessness that made the common world hear about it. Poor Gwendolyn got charged by the whole International Fairy Assistance Department."
"But why us?" Hayley insisted.
"Oh, Fairy Assistance Law. You know, two soul mates wishing for the exact same thing, at the exact same time, holding each others hands, when a star falls. Not a very common incident, as you may understand. So, your wish is to be part of the Harry Potter world?" Adenydd finished.
Vanessa still didn't seem to be convinced, but Hayley suddenly lit up.
"Can it be done?" She asked.
"Of course it can be. It will be a bit difficult, since we have to move you to a different dimension, but it is possible."
"But, is it really that simple?" Vanessa asked.
"Well, no…" Adenydd said and snapped her fingers, and suddenly a gigantic book appeared in front of them. Adenydd started to turn the pages fast.
"Ah, there it is! Paragraph 234. "In case of drastic changes in the experienced reality, and/or assistance missions grade 5 or higher, there must be a limit placed in a future time space of less than two months. The MAL Fairy may set a code if which is spoken the limit is removed. Said code must be spoken by an uninvolved, independent person, and the objects of assistance may not inform any person of the code, in which case, the code looses its effect.""
Hayley and Vanessa gave each other a glance.
"And what will the limit be?" They asked.
"Well, I am feeling very generous tonight, so I will definitely give you more time than a couple of hours, but dear Gwendolyn does have very serious PMS issues. What about that someone must honestly tell you they love you before the seventh hour of the seventh day of the seventh week?"
"Sounds fine", Hayley said smiling.
"What will happen if no one does?" The always suspicious Vanessa asked.
"Then, you will forever return to this dimension again", Adenydd said.
Vanessa had suddenly started to giggle.
"This is the weirdest joke I have ever been exposed to. I have to say, you really managed to make the frog and the book look real…" she said.
"But what if it is real?" Hayley asked.
"You know, I am really in a hurry; I have a date with a really hot faun in like five minutes, so if you would please lay down on the ground and try to sleep…"
Adenydd pointed at the rock beneath their feet.
Vanessa giggled like crazy.
"You know, I almost fell for it for a moment", she said.
"Nessie, lets just play along for now?" Hayley begged.
"Sure", Vanessa said smiling, and they both lay down, side by side.
"Well, goodbye then", Adenydd said.
A huge tiredness suddenly swept them away, and before they even had time to wonder why, they were both sleeping.
