I woke up in the middle of a street. I had no idea where we were. Speaking of, where is Zayn? I frantically looked around and strained my neak to look past the crowd of people. I saw that I landed in front of the outskirts of my castle. I saw the bridge that was just outside. I turned and saw that people were lined up to see the castle. I run up all the way to the front of the line and I tried to enter. 'Ticket please.' Said the young man. 

Me: Excuse me? I do not need a ticket to enter! Let me through!

I pushed and shoved but he just stood there in front of me, planted like a root. I huffed.

Me: Do you know who I am?

Clerk: No, but if you don't have a ticket, the police will.

I just gaped. Was this the new guard or what? Then I realized that this was not my time anymore. I apoligized, curtsyed, and turned to leave. He stopped me.

Clerk: Wait a minute. Is that you over there?

I turned to face the wall. There was a portrait of me! That was the portrait I did not like the most but today, it was my favourite! I nodded so quick I think I got a whiplash!

Clerk: I am so terribly sorry! Go ahead!

I rushed in without saying a word. There were many people in here and they were all walking around the place. How rude! I went up to a nice young girl. She looked like she was 3 years younger than me. So I though she was 13. I went up to her and she was looking at a glowing rectangle. 'Maybe she's a witch!' I though.

Me: Excuse me, do you know why all these people are here?

Her: Uh, duh! They're taking a tour of the castle!

She turned back to her glowing rectangle. I noticed it again and asked: And one more thing, what is that?

She looked at it and looked back at me.

Her: Have you, like, never seen a cellphone? Wow! What do you do live under a rock and work at McDonalds?

Me: Sooo....... does this 'cell divice' give you magical powers or.... are you a witch yourself?

She looked at me angrily. She rolled her eyes furiously and stomped off. I was muffled. I guess she was not magical. I went up to the next person I saw. I was a teenage boy.

Me: Excuse me? Have you seen Sir Zayn?

He turned aroung and took headphones out of his ears.

Him: What? Sir Zayn? Yea! Acually I did see him!

I perked up. Me: Really? Where? Where is he?

Him: In that picture right there. He looks totally radical, dude!

I was so startled by the picture that I didn't notice how oddly the boy was talking, let alone taking magical buds out of his very ears. Why was Zayn's portrait in MY castle? Then I looked closer. He was wearing a royal wedding uniform. The it struck me! Later in life, when we age, we will marry! Joy rolled over my whole body! I couldn't imagine Zayn with anyone else but myself. I continuded my search. No luck though. I was just wandering around my own castle like a lost puppy.

I sat down in one of the moderized benches to think. I had to find Zayn or I would never be able to go back! First, I thought, I should go and see my room in the future. I went up the long winding stairs. The door to my bedroom was wide open and people were crammed in there. There were many flashes of light. Was it a wand? Was it wisps? Nope. They were the rectangles called cells or cellphones or whatever it was. I got out of there as fast as I could and went to the garden. I saw that the labrynth was exactly the same, but kept untidy unlike mine. The little pebbles I put for the path were gone. I looked around and decided to poof myself there. I poofed half-way there and walked the rest of the way. To my luck, Zayn had came before me and sat to wait. He saw me and got up.

Zayn: There you are! What took you so long?

Me: I took a tour of the newly-formed castle first.

Zayn: Me too! It looks a little different, but not far off.

Me: Yes, indeed. But I saw something very different. Something that was not there before.

Zayn: What was it?

Me: A picture of a young couple.

I smiled and waited for him to catch on.

Zayn: Oh! I saw that one too! He leaned in and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

I laughed! Me: How about we get out of here now?

Zayn: Sounds good to me!

We both touched the orb at the same time. It glowed like usual. And once again, we were off!!
