A/N: This chapter is surpringly long...But it explains everything in this chapter. Now the fun stuff begins...
"What's this?" Emma hissed quietly to Jake out of earshot of the Professor who was too busy instructing a troublesome Hufflepuff on the other side of the room to notice the two.
"Andrew found it in our dorm this morning" Jake replied, also in a very low whisper.
"Andrew?"
"Yeah, Well...Peter now"
"Oh" she whispered, unfolding the parchment careful to read the simple five word sentence written in neat handwriting, printed in some sort of black ink.
'Birthday wishes can come true'
"No idea what the heck that's suppose to mean" Jake cut in after noticing the expression on her face from reading the letter. Emma on the other hand, wasn't listening. She was too caught up in deep thought, and finally things were finally making sense. She shoved the letter into her robe pocket, accompany with the unnoticed wand she didn't know she had and fell silence, roughly scribbling a small note to Jake.
'Meet me at the Library at Lunch. Bring everyone'
---
"How did you know it was me?" Jake asked Emma, later that day while waiting in the library for the others to turn up. So far the Library was almost empty except the odd second year Slytherin's huddled into a corner of the room, whispering urgently to themselves.
Emma flicked her long dark red hair over her shoulders and stared back down at the book in front of the two. "Well, I guess I just figured it out after you agreed that weird things had been happening"
At that moment, Scott, Kiara and Andrew had all entered the Library and crowded around the small desk. Kiara took the last remaining spare seat, Andrew sat on the desk and Scott remained standing. Glancing around the library, Scott spoke first, lowering his head down closer to the desk as he did so, beckoning the others to listen carefully.
"Okay, Somehow we've just 'magically...'" Scott started, using his fingers as inverted commas for the word 'magically' "...turned into our RP characters from the site we all go onto."
The group all nodded in agreement.
"Now, I have no idea how long we're stuck like this and this is going to be difficult since none of us have actually met in real life. We're all spread out around the globe, Myself from America, Emma from Australia...etc etc" he paused for a moment, absorbing every detail on their faces. "Since we're original characters from the book, I'm guessing these other guys we don't know..." he flew a hand out, waving it causally to the group of Slytherins, still not paying any attention to their little group "...think we're the real characters. Which means, we HAVE to stay in character, or people are going to think we're mad and screw up the whole Harry Potter series all together"
"This is stupid" Kiara grunted randomly. "I have to act this idiotic freak which ends up running from the law and is killed by his cousin!" Emma remembered that she was talking about the latest book of the Harry Potter series which explains Sirius Blacks death.
"We all have to make sacrifices..." Scott said darkly, glancing across at Jacob as he said so.
"So does this mean I have to be attracted to her without even knowing her?" Jake asked, staring at Emma as he said so. Emma felt a stab of annoyance, she had forgotten that James was in love with Lily.
"Yes" Scott answered briefly. "Also, we have to call each other by our character names"
Kiara groaned once again, which was becoming a disturbing habit that annoyed all of them. Clearly Kiara only enjoyed RPing Sirius...not being him. Without another word, the five departed and headed to the great hall for lunch.
