Sitting on your bed in your room, you were reading your favorite book, when suddenly, the words began to glow, a bright, blinding light enveloped you, so quickly you didn't even have time to realize.
A cold wind and the clean air, free of the smog you were used to, penetrated your bones. Around you was a sea of colorful leaves, and in the distance you recognized Hagrid's hut, with pumpkins around it.
Shocked, frightened, you had probably fallen asleep on the pages of the book, you observed the world around you. You were in the inner courtyard of Hogwarts.
You looked down at your clothes; you were no longer wearing your warm, soft pajamas, but your Hogwarts robes with your house crest.
The students laughed as they passed you, chatting, and the faces of:
Harry Potter
Hermione Granger
Ron Weasley
They were impossible to miss, shivers ran down your spine, a Hufflepuff student accidentally hit you, quickly apologizing and going back to talking to his friends, and you touched your shoulder, in pain.
Pain... It had hurt...
It was real.
The realization had shocked you; you continued to look around, feeling the world continue to spin.
"Hey, are you okay?"
Someone's voice woke you from your thoughts. You quickly looked up, your eyes widening as you recognized the person in front of you.
It was real... Hogwarts was real, and you... had finally been chosen.
