A/N: Hi! So obviously, it's been quite awhile. This is because we've been completely revamping everything, so this is the first chapter of the edited version, and we hope you enjoy the improvements!

In a small town in suburban America, a girl was cleaning out her rather messy garage with the help of a friend. Her name was Alexandra Louvelle, a thirteen year old who would soon be turning fourteen and entering high school. She was a bit crazy, but had a good head on her shoulders. Her heart went out to anyone in need, no matter what their problem was and she had learned to comfort people expertly, so that they would forget their worries when they spoke to her. Aside from that she absolutely loved the Harry Potter series. Her friend was Jessi LaGrande, a fourteen year old who would be entering high school at the same time. She was a bit more sane on the outside, but wasn't without her own moments of oddity. While she wasn't as good with comforting people, she was good at figuring out what they were feeling or thinking. This combined with her highly rational thought process allowed her to give people a clear outlook on things.

After they finished sorting a box of old pictures, Alex pulled yet another box off the wall and nearly dropped it in surprise. There in front of the pair was a doorway that came to a little above Jessi's waist. They knew there was no where it could go so they decided to crawl through and find out where it went. After all, they were very curious and weren't about to give up an opportunity to crawl through the proverbial rabbit hole. They moved the remaining box out of the way and moved for the door at the same time, struggling to figure out who would go first. Eventually they decided Jessi would lead and started crawling through the tunnel behind the little door.

When they came out of the small door at the other end of the tunnel they were crawling through, they realized they weren't in Illinois anymore. For starters, they were in a dimly lit stone corridor that was filled with moving paintings and ornate tapestries. Plus it was dark outside, the waning moon was beginning to rise above the sloping lawns, dark forest, and large lake that were visible outside the window. It was about noon in back home.

"I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore!" Alex gasped.

"We weren't in Kansas to begin with." Jessi smirked in response, turning around and coming face to face with a rather stern looking woman.

"Uh, Alex..."

Alex turned around and had a feeling she knew exactly who she was looking at, and Jessi had reached the same conclusion.

"Who are you?" The woman asked as Alex stared at her in awe. The woman was returning the look.

"I'm, I'm Alex Louvelle. And this is Jessi LaGrande. Are we at Hogwarts?"

The woman looked shocked and then nodded.

"I'm Professor McGonagall. Let's get you to Dumbledore, shall we?"

"Albus Dumbledore? And you're Minerva McGonagall?"Alex asked in complete awe.

"Yes. Come on, follow me."

Alex and Jessi shared a look before they followed the women silently, holding back the millions of questions that were racing through their heads.

Oh my goodness! I can't believe this! Please let it be real! I wonder if the war is real. Will we get to become witches? Were the books correct about their personalities? If we get to stay, can we help them? Alex thought as she and Jessi shared another look that told her Jessi's thoughts were on par with hers, as usual.

As they walked through various hallways, Alex and Jessi kept staring at their surroundings in awe, it seemed so real! Maybe it actually was…

They entered the Headmaster's office and Alex and Jessi both sat down in front of the large desk that sat in the centre of the room. A tall, thin, wizened old man sat down behind the desk and stared at them through his half-moon spectacles as if he could see through them, leaving no doubt in either of their minds that this man was the great Albus Dumbledore.

"Well who do we have here?" Dumbledore inquired, smiling warmly at the pair..

"My name is Alex Louvelle, sir. I'm from America, the Midwest specifically."Alex replied respectfully, her voice shaking slightly.

"And I'm Jessi LaGrande; I'm also from the Midwest. We got here together."

"What wizarding school do you go to there? I don't remember there being one in that area."

"Well, we're not witches. We're just muggles. We were cleaning out her garage when we found a doorway where there wasn't supposed to be a doorway. We crawled through and ended up here at Hogwarts." Jessi explained quickly.

"You're muggles?" McGonagall asked in surprise and Alex nodded.

"Since I know this is Hogwarts, and I know you're Dumbledore and McGonagall, I'm going to make some assumptions. There's a dark wizard named Voldemort," Dumbledore nodded so Alex continued; "You're fighting against him, you and the Order of the Phoenix. You're the good guys, but people are still dying. You have no idea how the war will end, but you are doing your best to win. You're going through Tom Riddle's past to try and figure out his future."

"How do you know all this? The war hasn't spread to America yet and you're a muggle."

"We love to read, and our favourite series of books is the Harry Potter series. This war is chronicled in them to some extent." Jessi replied before Alex launched into another lengthy rant.

"Harry Potter? Well I don't know any Harrys, but I do know a James Potter." McGonagall mused.

"As in the Marauders?"Alex asked excitedly.

"You know them?"

"Well, I know of them, sir. They happen to be our favourite characters."

"Right well let's discuss some more important things." Dumbledore told them, making Alex fidget more nervously and Jessi take a calming breath.

"In order for you to have gotten here, you must possess some magical abilities, meaning you are not muggles, but muggle-born witches."

"Does that mean we get to go to Hogwarts?"

"Yes, now how old are you?" McGonagall questioned.

Alex's mouth dropped open in unison with Jessi's and she took a few moments to compose herself before responding. "I'll be fourteen in September and Jessi will be fifteen in November."

"Then you shall start Hogwarts in your fourth year. We will call in as many teachers as we can to give you the education you have missed over the last three years. How quickly do you think you can move in to the castle?"

"We can be ready by the end of the day." Jessi decided after she thought through what preparations were necessary.

"Perfect, I will give you your Hogwarts letters and send you home to tell your parents of this. Come back here as soon as you can and I will have some of our younger Order members take you to Diagon Alley to buy your supplies."Dumbledore explained.

"Okay, thank you!"

"One more question, do you know the ending of the war?"

Both girls' expressions fell slightly and they nodded.

"Yes, and I think I can safely speak for both of us when I say we want to help the Order by finding ways to prevent deaths that are to come. We can research until we're old enough to actually join the Order." Alex smiled.

"We will gladly take your help. Too many good people are dying." McGonagall sighed.

Dumbledore handed Alex and Jessi each an envelope and McGonagall led them back out of the ornate office.

"Do you think we'll be able to learn everything?" Jessi asked curiously

McGonagall put her hands on each of their shoulders and nodded.

"As long as you believe in yourself and really try, I'm sure you will both do fine, dear." McGonagall smiled, softening her hard expression at the girls' concern.

"Thank you." Alex smiled in return.

"Right, well here we are! Come back as quickly as you can."

Alex and Jessi nodded and crawled through the tunnel back to Alex's house, where they quickly prepared to move to their dream school.
