[author's note] Hi everyone, for those who have followed Realm Drifter, the Harry Potter timeline is by far the longest, however, I haven't been adding to it for the past few years, simply because I wrote it so long ago, and that I've grown up a bit since I last wrote it. Hopefully, this time, the storyline will be longer and better than it was last time, and that basically things will make more sense this time around. Here it goes...]
The vortex spit Gil and Drak out into a thicket of trees. Drak, desperately backpedaling with his shrunken wings, landed roughly onto the forest floor, throwing Gil off the mount and onto the ground.
"Oww!!" he whimpered.
Concerned, Drak rushed to his side. Gil wearily gazed up. He had shrunken down all right, to the equivalent of a fledgeling, but still nonetheless enormous.
Hey Gil? Are you okay wondered Drak with an unnaturally soft tone.
"Y-yeah, I'm okay Drak" you assured with a light voice.
{A fall that you would have shrugged off before, now nearly brought tears to your eyes. This is nothing... this is nothing... you repeated to yourself, staggering to your feet.
Everything appeared so much higher and scarrier now. Of course, you knew that wasn't true, you'd just shrunken down, yet the fact was you werenow in the body of a boy instead of a man.
Yet you were tough as an eleven year old back in your real world. You had been eleven when the Malthinae imprisoned you in a concentration camp!! A simple fall was nothing compared to that experience!!
You and Drak examine each other closely. "Wow, your wings look sooo cute and cuddly now!!" Drak notices, jumping around excitedly like a hatchling. He shifts his claw and played with one of them, as if you'd just grown them. At least you weren't the only one who immatured.
"Hey!! Stop that!!" cried Gil, tucking the twin, membranous structures under his robe.
You sigh with relief, they were much easier to hide now. Someone would have to be extremely peeky if they noticed your wings!! But then again, people who knew magic could always find ways to be peeky!!
Of all the various realms you could have traveled to, Hogwarts was the locale you had studied up the most upon. You were certain you'd ended up somewhere on the grounds, and the only place that had a forest was the forbidden forest, so you couldn't be too far away. However, you'd still needed to decide exactly how you wanted to approach the situation...
