Chapter 2: Reading Harry, Confusion, and Muggle Candies

Bailey and Claire looked at eachother horror struck, they had no idea what had just happened and didn't know how to get back to the library. All they knew is that they had read a small paragraph from "Dark Arts for Muggles", which Claire and Bailey were still holding on to for dear life.

***********************

Harry, Ron, and Hermione gradually approached the duo standing in the corner of the common room. When they were close enough to talk, Hermione cleared her throat and said, "Who are you?"

The girl with blond hair said, "Well my name is Claire Micheals, and this is my best friend Bailey Wilson, what country are we in?" "England"

The brunette was the one to speak this time, "OH MY GOD! Claire how did we get here?!? We're probably supposed to be back in our homes that's in CANADA by now, my parents are going to KILL me! How are we supposed to get back? And where are we???"

"Well your at Hogwarts, school of Witchcraft and Wizardry" replied a confused Harry

"O yeah right, my god the next thing your going to tell me is that Voldemort's after Harry Potter, come on how stupid do you think I am?"

"Bailey what if they're not kidding..."

"Claire!? Hello?!? Where have you been lately? There is NO such thing as Wizards or Witches or Magic, or anything like that! My god, we may read Harry Potter, but we don't confuse it with reality! Like some people..." Said a frustrated Bailey, while giving a sideways glance at the boy with messy raven hair and glasses.

"Remember that book you found, in the storage room, in the back of the library?" asked Claire trying to piece everything together, looking at their situation like a puzzle.

"Yeah, what about it?" answered Bailey, slowly catching on.

"What was it called again?"

"Dark Arts for Muggles...but it couldn't be...you don't think...?"

"Yes I do, Let me check, um excuse me?" said Claire trying to get attention of the trio standing in front of her.

"Yes" said Ron, who was now very confused. Were these two girls', muggles? How and why did they have a book about Dark Arts? How did they get here? Should they get a professor? All these questions and more were racing through his mind at 300 miles per hour.

"Are your names, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley?"

"Yes" answered the trio in unison, all very confused how this mere stranger could know all their names.

"Do you all hate a guy named Draco Malfoy?"

"Yes" they once again answered.

"Does Harry have an Invisibility Cloak in his trunk upstairs, along side a Marauders Map?"

"Err..."

"Don't lie. I, we know the answer to that question"

"But how?" answered a puzzled Ron, no one except The Golden Trio and some other people (A/N: Hagrid, Dumbledore, Mad Eye Moody. etc.) were suppose to know about the Invisibility Cloak and the Marauders Map.

"Well we both read Harry Potter, and basically know a lot of stuff that goes on in your life"

"How can you read me?" asked a puzzled Harry

"Well there's these books, there's five of them out right now. One for each year that Harry goes to Hogwarts." Replied Claire trying to convince herself that she was dreaming. She had to be...

"The first one is called "Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone", the second one is called "Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets", the third one is called "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", the fourth one is called "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and the fifth one is called "Harry Potter and The Order of Phoenix"

After Bailey had told them about the books, and some told them some things that happened in each book ( "And in the third book Hermione slaps Malfoy, I liked that part, I think she should have punched him though." Bailey stated this in a matter-of-fact type of way.)

The Golden Trio and The Muggle Duo just stared at each other for a while.

Finally Hermione said, "We should bring you guys to Dumbledore immediately, he'll know exactly what to do."

Bailey and Claire just nodded their heads and they started to leave for Dumbledore's office.

To Claire's and Bailey's amazement, Hogwarts was even more beautiful and astonishing then they could have ever imagined. The movies and books clearly couldn't give enough justice to this beautiful monument. When the arrived at Dumbledore's office Bailey and Claire gave a yelp of surprise as the gargoyle said "password?"

Everyone just stood there for a moment, stuck. They hadn't thought far enough to think how to get in his office. Claire walked up to the gargoyle and started to go over numerous muggle sweets and candies.

Harry catching on started to join in and started to say muggle sweets and candies as well.

Eventually everyone was saying different types of candies. Hermione stopped to think of something that Dumbledore would like and called out "Sugar Babies!". The gargoyle stepped aside and everyone looked at Hermione gratefully. Before they entered the escalator that lead to Dumbledore's office, Claire let her curiosity get the better of her, and had to ask, "How did you come up with that?" "Well my mum was telling me about some types of candies they use to have when she was a teenager. One of her favorites were 'Sugar Babies'. They were like little balls of sugar, kind of like a muggle candy called nerds." "Cool, no wonder I didn't know what you were talking about" replied Claire, as everyone was lifted to Dumbledore's office.
