That's it for today. Zack spit out your gum." a teacher said as a bell rang. The Math class picked up their books and piled out of the classroom. Lindsey Lawrence was crushed as she went into the crowded hallway. The halls of CMS were always crowded, an unavoidable traffic jam. The school needed to expand, but money was tight.
Lindsey finally got to her locker, number 433. She put away her math book and binder. After grabbing her general binder, she closed her locker and clicked the lock closed. She had to practically run in order to make it in the girls' locker room for Gym before the bell rang. She felt relief as she set her books down just as the second bell rang.
She met her best friend Emily Paradise when she went to her Gym locker, which was next to hers. They chatted while changing into their Gym uniform, white shirt and black shorts. As Lindsey shut her locker a whistle blew to signal changing time was over.
"This school gives us so time to do anything." Lindsey complained.
"Just be grateful the day is so short. We only have reading after Gym." Emily told her.
"Don't forget I have practice till six."
"I guess."
"C'mon girls, attendance spots." Ms. Kaini told them. She was the female Gym teacher, Emily's teacher. Lindsey had the male teacher, Mr. Cardan.
"See ya later Linds." Emily said as she went to the other side of the Gym. Lindsey sat down at the beginning of the second row. She waited patiently while both teachers took attendance. While she waited she counted the number of students in each class. Ms. Kaini's class had twenty-one students, Mr. Cardan's class seventeen. Emily caught her eyes and waved, Lindsey waved back.
"Today's class is going to be a joined activity between classes." Mr. Cardan announced. The girls gave each other thumbs up.
"When you get your color go to the corresponding cone." he told them. He held a bag with bulges in it. He took something out and it was a strip of red clothe. He gave it to the boy in the first row, Ryan Izar. Mr. Cardan went through the rows, handing out the cloth to each student. When he got to Lindsey he gave her a blue piece. She tied it around her wrist. She then watched as Mr. Cardan gave Emily a blue also. It meant they were on the same team! Finally everyone got their color.
"Go t your cone now." Ms. Kaini instructed. The Gym grew loud with the sound of feet and talking. Lindsey and Emily met each other at the blue cone. Emily put her arm on Lindsey's shoulder.
"Long time no see." She said.
"Really." Lindsey said sarcastically. She looked at the colors; red, yellow, blue and green.
"They're Hogwarts colors." Lindsey stated. A crack went through the air, and in a blink the students were gone.

It happened so quickly, no one knew what happened. Suddenly Lindsey found herself in robes in an entrance way with Emily still leaning on her shoulder. Emily instantly stood up straight and looked around. Both classes were here, where ever here was. Everyone stood scared, questioning each other as to where they were.
"This all seems familiar." Emily said, and then Lindsey realized something.
"This is the hallway that leads into the Great Hall! In Hogwarts, from Harry Potter! We're the first years!" she told everyone frantically. Someone laughed then stepped through the crowd until her was face to face with Lindsey, it was Zack.
"That is just stupid. It's probably just one of those joke shows. Like Hi-Jinked or Punk'd. They probably just knocked us out and put us on this set that looks like Hogwarts." he retorted. This brown haired boy was one Lindsey hated the most.
"That's stupid. They're not allowed to knock us out. And plus, the Hogwarts in the movies is made up of different places around the world. This is one whole castle. They also couldn't have changed us like this. Plus they would have taken these cloths off." She pulled her sleeve back; the blue cloth was still there. Everyone checked to see if their cloths were still there. They appeared on ankles, wrists, arms, hair, and other places. Silence followed, even Zack who was a chatterbox was quiet.
A door opened and then closed. Lindsey turned around so her back was facing Zack. The person who came through was a person they all recognized. Professor McGonagall.

A/N: Short first chapter. This is the first Harry Potter story I wrote that I didn't think sucked beyond all belief. I hope people like it and review. I'll try to update quickly and I'm still figuring out the problem with my Angelic Layer fan fictions. Thanks to all who read my stories.
