"An invisibility cloak?" Alex held up the cloak at arm's length, turning it over and over. The carpet of her room tickled her feet. She tilted her head, gray eyes inspecting the item481Please respect copyright.PENANA3TW6p6KyKm
481Please respect copyright.PENANAAcQo5IASi4
"You can borrow it for a day." Harry explained to her481Please respect copyright.PENANAB0SkxvlUS1
481Please respect copyright.PENANALe20hrsai4
"Am I dreaming right now?" Alex scowled at him. She pinched her cheek. She winced. The insant pain felt real, alright. She couldn't bear it for more than a second481Please respect copyright.PENANAebHUpfckfu
481Please respect copyright.PENANAAs2syfD5se
Then, she turned back to the visitor of another world, "How did you—"481Please respect copyright.PENANAMEc59IEPQ3
481Please respect copyright.PENANAQR8YOt2eiW
She found her room to be empty. Did she just imagine the whole thing? Lifting up the cloak again, she wrapped it around her shoulders—like how Harry did in the movie481Please respect copyright.PENANALzp5ieKZsb
481Please respect copyright.PENANAW9SVum2tSB
A muffled scream escaped her lips. She stepped back and hit her bed, stumbling until she landed on the floor. She laid on her back, her heart hammering in her chest. Her brown fringes covered her vision. She blew them away, tilting her head to check on her body481Please respect copyright.PENANArBcUda2fad
481Please respect copyright.PENANAqnBylokjpB
It wasn't there. Just like how she saw earlier when she first wore the cloak. Her eyes widened in surprise. How could this be possible? Did she really just see Harry Potter?481Please respect copyright.PENANAjAQzKl7FQJ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAlDUIZsQ9Jk
Or had she gone slightly insane? She stood up, shaking her head. Whatever it was. It was the middle of the night and she had school in the next day. She stuffed the cloak in her bag and went back to bed481Please respect copyright.PENANAl82W3uVatA
481Please respect copyright.PENANArjfuuvboGg
When morning came, Alex woke up with a gasp. She remembered snoozing the first of her five alarms. She tapped on the bed for her phone and checked the time481Please respect copyright.PENANAdP3HV5WwyX
481Please respect copyright.PENANAwQqBvCMFZf
"Ah, shit!" She screamed481Please respect copyright.PENANAS4nx58M0O0
481Please respect copyright.PENANAK0y41kXSCv
Getting up, she ran to the bathroom for the quickest shower in her life. She took the first clothing items her hands found and wore them, wrinkles and all. She didn't bother to check on her pixie cut hair. She reached her bag and her skateboard instead, bolting out of the room with untied shoes481Please respect copyright.PENANA0wbwauazHr
481Please respect copyright.PENANAsEViuKV4br
The small wheels rolled down the pavement. Alex kicked when necessary, bringing up the speed. The wind dried her hair and made her hoodie flutter. Her mind calculated the time of her arrival. It didn't look good481Please respect copyright.PENANABsNz4Ga7DK
481Please respect copyright.PENANABIRAy53hCr
She bit her bottom lip as the school gates appeared within reach. Some of the student council members stood at each post, checking on the dress code and tardiness481Please respect copyright.PENANAwXpe1xCoCJ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAD7w5sGDw58
Alex cursed when the bell rang 481Please respect copyright.PENANAyaHQkcv2G5
481Please respect copyright.PENANAWC7TwrHdjE
How loud was that? She could hear it all the way from her spot. Not wanting to receive a late slip, she stopped by a nearby shop and hid in the alleway. If she got one more of those things, her parents would ground her for sure481Please respect copyright.PENANAogDpqiCnlm
481Please respect copyright.PENANAwWdZmWWNa6
Was there something she could do?481Please respect copyright.PENANAr8INAYtXab
481Please respect copyright.PENANAmRbBqfuuwJ
The zipper of her bag fully opened. Its contents fell on the floor. Alex looked at them in alarm. She crouched and collected her things. She must have forgotten to lock it properly. Her hands paused on a cloak. It sprawled on the pavement, the frabric glistening under the sun481Please respect copyright.PENANARWeEtEsCS5
481Please respect copyright.PENANAVX3HmsyvUt
A hazy dream replayed in her mind. It appeared vividly and vibrantly. She could make out all the details unlike her other dreams481Please respect copyright.PENANATHe5Ilz8aZ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAADsLXO3P5m
Moving slowly, she slipped her hand under cloak. Every inch of the fabric disappeared and camouflaged against the pavement. She pulled her hand back, blood draining off her face481Please respect copyright.PENANAZNnhsRUJXE
481Please respect copyright.PENANAeudRgyxHua
So it was real?481Please respect copyright.PENANAHKnnD7TZhO
481Please respect copyright.PENANA3ujgMAHZ2L
Her head snapped towards the school gates, already forming a plan481Please respect copyright.PENANAuOMxZyCOet
481Please respect copyright.PENANAnUMtPcMvO9
With greath stealth, she wore the straps of her bag behind her and hugged her skateboard close to her chest. A few meters stood between her and the student council. The cloak rested on her head and fell around her481Please respect copyright.PENANAsSeibshumO
481Please respect copyright.PENANAsrHRLDkc8U
It probably looked ridiculous if it didn't work481Please respect copyright.PENANA43D28lqeid
481Please respect copyright.PENANAt9mKzuHY3P
But it was worth the shot481Please respect copyright.PENANAKePgzgKxtY
481Please respect copyright.PENANAEQjEuFsy1Z
She used quick and light steps to avoid the sound her shoes made when it scraped the pavement. She stopped at every meter she managed to achieve, checking if someone noticed. When she came closer, she lifted the heels of her feet and tiptoed the rest of the way481Please respect copyright.PENANAUUSO2QTdcB
481Please respect copyright.PENANARGxIO5IFPO
The student council chattered among themselves even when she stood two feet away. She debated if she should make a beeline for it. Then, decided against it since she could trip481Please respect copyright.PENANAZHJyZGinRu
481Please respect copyright.PENANAEfDbSZC62a
Taking her time, she passed by the gates and entered the courtyard. She heaved a breath of relief481Please respect copyright.PENANAnNRWSUP4jq
481Please respect copyright.PENANApva4DnH7GZ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAp6r0P5cD2B
The cloak passed the test but the main entrance was at a good distance. Running was still out of the question. She checked her feet. The cloak was big enough for an inch of its hem to lay flat on the floor481Please respect copyright.PENANAt9hfyFFD1x
481Please respect copyright.PENANADEcG78wLui
Maybe if she crouched and brisked walk... maybe that could work481Please respect copyright.PENANAEGrG5PCcQc
481Please respect copyright.PENANALYs15mN0LX
She lifted her skateboard, using it to raise the fabric in front of her. Now, she had more room to move her feet. She quickened her pace and aimed for the entrance. The school let it stayed open for 15 mins after the bell rang for late students to come in.481Please respect copyright.PENANAgbHos4kwxU
481Please respect copyright.PENANAKvBY8HZFyV
When she reached it, a soft squeal escaped her lips. The adrenaline of the adventure trembled her nerves in excitement. She could actually make it all the way to the classroom. She checked her phone for the time. Then, her homeroom teacher appeared around the corner.481Please respect copyright.PENANAbXkb9wDGNZ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAffTBaHX5TQ
She yelped and took the first corridor on her right. It wasn't the easiest route to the room but that one would be used by her teacher. If she wanted to run, she needed to be out sight for no one to hear her shoes. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAAQTZNaLEHe
481Please respect copyright.PENANAdbyLlQldX5
Still in a crouch, she didn't hold back and ran. She made several turns. Each one held importance or she'd find herself in another part of the building. Her arms began to feel numb and so did her knees. Nonetheless, she pumped her legs to move faster. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAglAJGEEo6g
481Please respect copyright.PENANA7R9yMmibMp
A surge of delight lifted her spirits when she saw the door to the classroom opened by a janitor. He probably did a last minute cleaning. His eyes shifted in her direction swiftly, landing behind her.481Please respect copyright.PENANApd4R191N27
481Please respect copyright.PENANAdtC0mchj8G
"Good morning, Mrs. Tilly!" He greeted her homeroom teacher.481Please respect copyright.PENANAIkP4EyKRBZ
481Please respect copyright.PENANAUFO01vjeAw
Alex headed straight for the door as it closed slowly. She managed to slip inside, narrowly missing the knob. She fell on her stomach with the skateboard raised over her head. She pulled her legs close to her torso, making sure they're under the cloak481Please respect copyright.PENANAFx7ALOOy1S
481Please respect copyright.PENANAG8Rz7KO3NU
She didn't look at the other students, if anyone noticed a foot without a body. 481Please respect copyright.PENANALxPATpf201
481Please respect copyright.PENANAPAs9GueeWl
She wiggled on the floor like a worm. Then, she took a chance and placed her skateboard underneath her stomach. The faint voices of the janitor and her homeroom teacher came through the door.481Please respect copyright.PENANAL65YZHxPMq
481Please respect copyright.PENANANRdeOQ0rbU
Using her hands, she kicked the floor and rolled towards the back. The wheels scraped the floor, creating a soft scratchy sound. Anyone who glanced her way saw nothing. It didn't really matter since she already passed them by before they looked.481Please respect copyright.PENANAiyrkIMM7Gn
481Please respect copyright.PENANAcXhcL31KIf
Once she reached her seat, she crouched behind it and rested the skateboard against the backrest. She took off the cloak, stuffing it in her bag, and pretended to check the wheels.481Please respect copyright.PENANAFLKPlBesGP
481Please respect copyright.PENANAkPHDXML86l
"Man, what a bummer" she said loudly and got up481Please respect copyright.PENANATHVL6inryu
481Please respect copyright.PENANAfqo65jhm1P
Her seatmate, Logan, snapped his head towards her. She stared back lazily with a raised eyebrow.481Please respect copyright.PENANAY6QZIjS7v4
481Please respect copyright.PENANA051z3LGUY6
"When did you get here?" A horrified look filled his eyes.481Please respect copyright.PENANAoi6lKAIOAs
481Please respect copyright.PENANAKND0j05SlV
"What do you mean, Logan?" She snorted, "I was here minutes ago. I just needed to take off the hairs from the wheels of my skateboard."481Please respect copyright.PENANAT46AmA38VJ
