Prologue:

"Tell me Maddy, why do you insist on doing these crazy things?" I asked playfully, knowing full well I wouldn't get a proper answer.

"because dear Annie, I will succeed one day." Her look was determined. Maddy had had this crazy idea of her one day being able to join the Harry Potter World. She was certain it was real and that she could be a part of it. I always laughed at her, but her certainty and resolve was to be admired.

"so, tell me Maddy, how is it that you will get to Harry's world. What brilliant plan do you have this time?" my sarcasm wasn't missed by my friend, but she chose to ignore it instead opening her mouth to begin her lecture. I sighed and prepared myself.

"so basically, I read in the harry potter books that it's possible to travel through either time with a time turner or through space via portkey or alternatively apparition. If that's possible surely its possible for me to create a device to transport me through parallel planes and into the harry potter world. I'd just need something to tether me to that place. I was thinking maybe the actual book." She looked so happy, and hopeful. I didn't want to remind her that though her ideas were great they required magic and since well, we didn't have any magic as we were "muggles" it was quite impossible. I was just about to burst her bubble, when she started to talk again.

"I've already got the plans all written up, I just need help to build the device. I was hoping you wouldn't mind." I bit back a groan, this should be fun, hours wasted attempting something that was beyond impossible.

I looked at her about to make an excuse, but the look on her face made me stop and I just nodded my head.

I swear she squealed before launching herself at me.

My laughter could be heard for miles. My friend was just too easy to please.
