A/N: Hi everyone, I'm back from the dead~! Did you miss me? No? Okay. Anyway, hi this is really short, I totally rushed it, I only wrote this to signify that I'm alive anyway, so uh. Lol. Will I continue this? Maybe. I dunno. Is this OOC? Perhaps. I haven't read Harry Potter in a long time. Oh, and I tried making it not black and white okay, I really did. And I can't help but switch from past to present tense I don't even know okay I'll shut up now. Enjoy? :(

Disclaimer: I don't know how to create perf characters like what JKR does, and I stole the title from the book by Peter Abrahams~


One day, I woke up, expecting to find Granger beside me, as she should be.

However, the only visible thing on my right was a book.

It was a very strange book: the cover was completely black, and no words or pictures were emblazoned on it. The spine and back were rather empty, as well.

This would peak any sane person's interest, and I, for one, am a very sane person myself, and so I opened the book.

The inside no different from the outside—the pages were totally blank. I examined it a little bit more, and all of a sudden, I felt like I was falling down into nothingness, and everything went dark.


When I came to, I was still falling…rather, floating down into whatever was down there. Fortunately enough, I could see much clearly now.

As I fell, random objects just kept appearing out of nowhere. Teapots, cups, chairs, tables—you name it. I am a wizard, and I see magic going on every day, but I still found this rather strange. After all, I've never come across a book that just makes you suddenly…hell, I can't even explain it.

It was then that I noticed that I wasn't in my pyjamas anymore (Yes, Draco Malfoy wears pyjamas until now, shut up). I was in some kind of shirt and pants and a coat and I had a bloody bow tied around my neck. I even had this gigantic hat on my head. I have no idea what's happening.

Before I knew it, the falling stopped, and I was standing in some kind of corridor or something. The corridor was sort of one way, but at some point, I got stuck. There was a fork. To make things easier for me though, I just took the one with the door, and I opened it.

Beyond it was another, smaller door, which I opened. A door was behind this one. I opened it.

Another door.

Why am I not surprised.

This continued on until the door was so small that I had to crawl to go past it.

Why must life be so difficult?

I found myself in a room so empty except for tiny curtains in the wall across from me, which I guess, have a tiny door behind it. It was far too tiny for me to fit in, though.

Okay, so that wasn't the only thing in the room. Beside the curtains was Granger, who had weird clothes on like I did. She was wearing some kind of blue dress with an apron on top of it. She had a black headband with a ribbon on her head.

Granger. With a ribbon on her head. Could this day get any weirder?

She looked so amused to see me all confused. It was annoying.

"So, Granger," I said, breaking the silence. "Care to explain?"

She merely smiled.
