I fell and fell, and kept on falling until I landed on pure green grass. My mother had told me all of her stories about her fantasy world, and how much she... hated it really. However I saw it as something completely different; a Wonderland. A minute ago I was sitting in the garden whilst mother was reading a book with no pictures in to me, when all of a sudden a door appeared. This is where I am now. In a place where the sun shines brighter than ever before.

I met everyone. Yes, even the Queen of Hearts, and I mustn't forget the cheshire cat. My my, he is a strange little thing. One minute there, another minute over here, messing about with his invisibility powers and all. But the single day passed by, and as the moon gradually rose, I made my way back to the door. Strange, how it took so long for the sun to go down.

I turned the handle and within a few seconds I felt like I was falling through nothing, just an empty space. Oh, how I was looking forward to telling mama and papa, and not to mention my dear sister Ava, about my unforgettable experience in this world. As much as I loved it, it would be good to be back at home in 1943, in a world where time exists.

Once I had landed I looked up to find myself lying on a forest floor. My, how peculiar! This wasn't where I lived at all. Maybe I was in the wood a few miles away from home. I made my way out of the forest. It seemed dark and mysterious, but perhaps a little too dark, and it looked oddly familiar. I climbed the small hill and found myself standing in the open once again, on grass.

But that's the thing, you see. Everything fell into pieces, like destroying a perfectly laid out jigsaw, for confusion overwhelmed me. I stood at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry...

Only it seemed much, much different than before.
