A/N: Hellooooooooo Readers,

This is a story of Harry Potter that I've been writing for quite awhile now. I started writing it years ago when the sixth book came out. I know delaying much. I didn't like the way it was written before, so I've made lots of changes. I think now I'm pretty satisfied with where it's going so please read, the later chapters do get better. This one just seems slow because it's basically an introduction to the character. I based a lot of the character views on myself but not her lifestyle or background or anything. I didn't want to base this whole thing on me. It's actually pretty funny how I came up with this story but I think I've babbled on long enough. R&R!!

Thanks

Our story begins in a small town in California, population 67,168, but we are not going to talk about the other 67,167 people just one; one young girl who had lived in the small city since she was born. Her name was Angelica Watmore (Angel for short). Her Mexican ethnicity showed strongly in her features. She was 15 years old when her adventure began, but before we begin that part of the story let's dig deeper to find out more about our unsuspecting character.

Angelica loved to read and she read a lot. She was about 12 years old when the first Harry Potter movie came out and the world fascinated and captivated her. She began to read the Harry Potter series and was immediately attached. She wasn't the biggest fan of the movies; although, it was the reason why she began to read the books. Once she had seen the third installment she stopped going to see the movies. They were just nothing compared to the books. Her favorite house was Slytherin and her favorite characters consisted of Sirius Black and Albus Dumbledore. Severus Snape would have been on the list too but after the sixth book…well, let's just say Angelica doesn't like to talk about it. Speaking of the sixth book, our character had just finished the sixth installment. Wiping her tears away she went to the kitchen to tell her mother the great news.

"Mom, Mom, I just finished reading the 6th Harry Potter book!" she said excitedly with a few tears still on her face that she forgot to wipe.

"Que bueno, mija," (That's good, honey) her mom said while washing some tomatoes for that nights hamburgers, when she finally looked up at her daughter she noticed her flushed face, "Why were you crying?" she asked concerned, her accent heavy as she spoke in English.

"It was just really sad," Angelica sniffed wiping the new falling tears away.

"Mija, it's just a book. It's not real," her mother said rolling her eyes continuing with the tomatoes.

"So? It doesn't mean I can't believe it is," she replied defensively, trying to win an argument for once.

"Actually that's exactly what it means," her older sister Victoria said entering the kitchen getting ready to cut some lettuce.

"Thanks Vicky, I'm going outside," Angelica said without another word.

Angelica didn't get much support when it came to Harry Potter. Victoria always teased her about her 'unhealthy obsession' and she would always say it would get her no where. Angelica knew there was no such place as the Wizarding World or Harry Potter. Of course, that's what she always said but something deep inside her told her differently. Something deep down said that somewhere out there it existed. Angelica never shared that with anyone for if she did, she knew she would never hear the end of it. After having been teased her whole life about the story, Angelica tried to stop believing, but it's like people with Peter Pan, you don't want to stop believing. The thought of something greater than life actually existing is a lot better than having no belief at all. No one understood what Harry Potter represented to Angelica or probably to many other fans. It represented a distraction from the real world, a distraction for anything. Having a rough day, she would shut herself in her room and lose herself in another world. That can't be healthy; feeling such a strong connection to a book.

She was the family disappointment. Having to live in her sister's shadow her whole life Angelica needed something to call her own and that's exactly what Harry Potter held for her. Her older sister, Victoria was 22, her younger sister Andy, 9, her dad's spoiled little Princess and of course her little brother Julian, 7, who was the only boy and therefore was her mom's little Prince. Victoria being the first born she got most of the attention to begin with. That left Angelica in the dark and expected to do everything right and to learn from her sister's social mistakes but to follow in her scholarly achievements. School was not for Angelica. She was an actress and preferred the stage and a good play or book in her hands than a check book.

Her parent's treatment didn't sit well with Angelica but what could she do? All she could do was sit back and wait; wait for whatever was waiting for her to unfold. And it did. Big time! Angelica did not expect her wishes to be realized so soon or so abruptly but they were and they came through a black shaggy dog.

All of the sudden Angelica heard a bark from across the street which woke her from her thoughts of a better life and to come back to the one she was currently in. Looking around for the source of the noise she spotted a black scruffy looking dog across the way sitting and staring at her. Angelica looked around for anyone the dog could belong to but there was no one in sight which she found odd since there were usually people out in her neighborhood. Kneeling down, she called the dog forward holding her hand out for the dog to sniff.

The dog began to make its way toward her and as he did she couldn't help but notice the resemblance between the dog and Sirius Black. It was just astonishing. The dog crept closer and finally his noise met her hand. The dog sneezed and looked up at her as Angelica smiled at the dog.

"Well aren't you cute," she said with a smile and the dog began to lick her face but stopped when she playfully pushed him off, "Nope, sorry I don't kiss on the first date," she said with a laugh as the dog made a sort of whiny noise but nodded and barked with his tongue sticking out. For some reason the dog gave off the impression of…smiling. Angelica knew it was downright impossible, but that is what she saw. "Can you understand me?" She asked looking intently at the dog, when it did not reply Angelica sighed. "Oh God, if only my sister could see me now talking to dogs." Angelica kept scolding herself until the dog barked again and nodded. "Wait so you can understand me?" Another nod came as an answer and the Angelica sat back in astonishment. "There is no way I can be imagining this," she whispered and the dog replied with a side to side nod which made Angelica laugh.

"Angelica dinner is ready," Victoria yelled from inside the house.

"Oh I got to go," she said standing up to go inside but the dog barked loudly and walked a few steps away and began to whine again. He kept looking down the street and back to her trying to tell her something that Angelica couldn't comprehend. "What are you trying to tell me?" The dog got behind her and began to push her. When she didn't do anything the dog seemed to get anxious and began to run into the street. "Hey wait a minute!" she yelled after the dog and ran after him. "Hold on will you?" she yelled starting to lose her breath after about 20 minutes of chasing the dog and it was starting to get dark. After 10 more minutes the dog began to slow down and finally stopped. "Thanks for stopping and letting me catch my breath," she said sarcastically bending over and resting her hands against her knees. The barked once more and to her bewilderment a door appeared out of nowhere. Angelica was about to question the dog and her sanity when the door opened and the dog went through.

'Should I follow him,' Angelica thought to herself but before she could think anymore on the subject, the dog came back outside the door and began to pull her from her brand new white shirt and then through the door. Before she made it all the way through the door, the dog pulled on her harder and she tripped on the door frame and landed right on her face. Angelica let out a frustrated sigh, stood up and dusted herself off.

"Oh I am so sorry I didn't mean to pull you so hard," a voice said apologetically.

"That's okay, no big deal…" Angelica's response faded as she realized that the only thing in here with her was a dog. 'Holy sheep! A dog is talking to me.' She thought as she looked up, but the dog was no longer a dog. In the dog's place stood a man with waxy skin that stretched so tightly over his face, it looked like a skull. It was Sirius Black.

Angelica took this opportunity to look around quickly and saw 6 read heads, a girl with bushy brown hair, a kid with jet black hair, a man with brown hair that had a few gray hairs in it, a girl with freakishly bright pink hair, a tall strong looking man who was bald, and a really old guy standing in the corner with a glass eye that was looking all over the room but his normal eye was starring fixedly at her. 'I know all these people.' She thought and looked back at her favorite character.

"Oh my, you're…your're…" she said not being able to find words.

"My name is Sirius Black," the man answered but this only made Angelica more confused. Sirius Black didn't exist. The only response Angelica could come up with was laughter. She looked back at the people around and they were all looking at her like she was crazy.

"Yeah right, and let me guess, you're Arthur Weasley, you're Molly Weasley, Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny Weasley," she said while pointing to each one of the 6 red heads, "and then you're...Hermione." She said with a hint of distaste. "You're Remus Lupin, Tonks, Shackelbolt, Mad-eye Moody, and last but not least the famous Harry Potter, and right now we are in the Ancient House of Black also known as the headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix, am I right?" She said with a grin playing on her lips.

"Wow, I told you, didn't I tell you Remus, this girl knows everything about our world," Sirius said and the whole room immediately irrupted in talk about the mysterious girl. She could understand some things that were said like:

"She could help with the war."

"What do you think Dumbledore will say?"

"How does she know us? All of this?" The voices were beginning to give her a headache so she put an end to them.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey," she yelled amongst the other voices and silence set in, "Yeah, hi, I'm still here. Would anyone care to tell me what in bloody blazes is going on here?" she asked.

"How do you know everything about the Wizarding World?" Sirius asked.

"The what?! What Wizarding World, there's no such thing. It's all just in these books that I have at home."

"You mean this book?" Lupin said while holding the first Harry Potter book.

"Yeah, you know what I'm dreaming, right? Oh, no did my sister put you up to this, a family member, or one of my friends. You know, whoever it was they did a good job…that, that looks almost real," Angelica said reaching to touch Harry's scar but he quickly slapped her hand away.

"Do you know who Actchevious Ak-shee-vee-us was?" Lupin asked.

"I'm sorry, Professor, who?" she asked confused rubbing her hand where Harry had hit. There went the idea of her dreaming… it really hurt.

"Actchevious," Lupin repeated.

"No sir I don't believe I do," she replied looking at the others.

"This book is based upon a vision of hers. She was the greatest seer on earth. Who went into your world for her protection because she had a vision of Harry being born and what was to ensue because of his birth. To survive she changed her name and wrote her vision on paper to sell. She knew she couldn't let her vision be known or discovered especially if it reached the Dark Lord. Actchevious realized the danger she was in and fled only telling one other person about her vision," Lupin said looking at Angelica the whole time as he explained the story.

"Who did she tell," Angelica asked curiously.

"Dumbledore himself," Lupin replied, "She didn't tell him anything in detail only that Harry was indeed the one the Prophecy referred to," he finished.

"Wow," was all that escaped from Angelica's mouth. It really was a fascinating story. "Okay well you still haven't answered my first question, why am I here?" Angelica said starting to get a bit annoyed.

"Well, we were kind of hoping you would be able to help us defeat the Dark Lord. I mean you already know what's going to happen," Harry answered looking hopeful.

"Well technically no, I mean the seventh book hasn't even finished being written yet I don't know the outcome of the war, but I have read Harry's first through sixth year at Hogwarts, and I bet you're all in his seventh year by now so that's useless," she said feeling a bit out of sorts considering that she was talking to a bunch of book characters.

"No we're not," Lupin clarified.

"That's impossible you have to be. Unless you're going by the movie dates which means you're in…" her words fading and dread feeling her stomach.

"…My fifth year," Harry finished eyebrows raised. Angelica paled beginning to feel slightly dizzy and began to sway.

"What, what's wrong?" Sirius asked looking concerned grabbing onto her arm to steady her. She looked up at him and then back to everyone else, and then to Harry again.

"I don't think it would be such a good idea to talk about it here, in front of everyone," Angelica replied trying to get a hold of her self before she said something stupid.

"I agree. We should wait until Dumbledore comes," Arthur said chipping in his opinion before anyone else did.

"Alright then, um, Angelica—" Sirius said.

"Call me Angel, please," she suggested. Sirius smiled.

"Angel, Harry will show you to your room," he said beckoning Harry forward.

"Wait a minute, does that mean I'm staying?" Angelica asked shocked. Sirius merely laughed.

"I have been watching you for about a week now and I've seen how much you love this world, reading the books to escape your lifestyle, are you really in a hurry to leave now that you've discovered that this is all real?" Angelica looked into his eyes and smiled. 'Wow, he looks cuter up close.' She thought to herself.

"You know you're absolutely right. Harry, lead the way," Angelica replied looking at the boy who was Harry Potter!
