Parallel universes

Wizarding World

The day two worlds finally realized each other, you would think that things would have been special but nope. It was still the same boring schedule people go through everyday. The minister of magic of England, Hermione Granger was resting in her office, after an exhausting day of meetings with one particularly attention-catchy. Arthur Weasley, the head of Misuse of Muggle Artifacts office had reported hearing a lot of rumors about sighting a strange blue vortex appearing for a second and instantly disapearing when he and his men were out doing their weekly check at Hogsmeade. This was both troublesome and disapointing as the third-years from Hogwarts were scheduled to go on their first trip to Hogsmeade just 2 days later.

Two choices is placed in front of Hermione, to send a letter to Minerva Mcgonagall, the headmistress of Hogwarts to cancel the trip or find out the source of the problem and solve it. At this point, a letter meant for Professor Mcgonagall was already lying on the front of her desk, with an owl readied to start the long journey to Hogwarts. 

Well why was the letter still sitting on her desk? It is to wait for Hermione to come to a decision. She remembers clearly how she was so excited to go to Hogsmeade herself, being a muggle-born she has never been there and she sort of felt bad that she will have to delay other students from seeing the magical place.

And that is exactly how she found herself apparating to Hogsmeade with Harry Potter, her long time best friend and also the head of Auror's office, despite the cold weather. 

"Gosh, I wish I could spare time for some Butterbeer but I guess that's out of question." Harry mumbled

"Harry, you know that we can't be detoured" Hermione shots back at him, getting stares from random wizards. "Anyways let's go check the portal out so that if it was a hoax at least I can get back home in time for the kids."

They went to the spot where the rumored portal was seen, which was a narrow alley. This is the spot where lots of couples, consisting mostly of students from Hogswarts, go to confess their love and kiss under the mistletoe that hung above their heads.

"Oh, it's this place. I think I remember catching you and Ron kissi-"Harry was suddenly cut off by a hand.

"Shut up Harry, you are not one to say. I heard from Ron about you and Ginny kissing in front of him before in school grounds. Like you are any better than us." Hermione retorted.

"Ok so we are even." Harry replied when Hermione's hand loosened around his mouth. "Anyways, the portal"

"Oh yeah thank you for sidetracking me. I sense magic around here. And it's different from what I usually sense when someone used magic. It feels ... different, like it's magic but also not magic.

"What do you mean magic but not magic? Not like there is any other magic aside from our spells." Harry muttered.

"Wait, what did you say?" Hermione asked.

"I said how can it be magic but not magic? There's no other magic aside from our spells and potions, unless you count goblin magic of course."

"No, this is not goblin magic, I have felt goblin magic before. But what if there is other people with magic? A different type obviously. It feels very...pure. Just joking but can you imagine if it was the type of magic from children stories? Like from Cinderella, Snow White or Sleeping Beauty. Imagine they are all in one world." Hermione said.

"Magical world to Hermione. Snap out of it." (Magical world to Hermione is a joke as we usually say Earth to (name) to ask them to snap out of a trance)

"Oh yeah, anyways I don't think I can get any more clues to what this magic is so we should just go home. I can ask Arthu- I mean dad to keep an eye on it I guess." Hermione said.
