"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 item394Please respect copyright.PENANAczM3Zmv3kZ
394Please respect copyright.PENANA5hEyG66dcR
"You can borrow it for a day." Harry explained to her394Please respect copyright.PENANAlypGgTulS0
394Please respect copyright.PENANAfsZAnreUVB
"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 second394Please respect copyright.PENANAo0Vmk9PdXV
394Please respect copyright.PENANA3UoZ8xDibj
Then, she turned back to the visitor of another world, "How did you—"394Please respect copyright.PENANAk1sDHI2mTT
394Please respect copyright.PENANAnYkW0RtInc
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 movie394Please respect copyright.PENANA2gWsS8a2DE
394Please respect copyright.PENANATFdcisR9yZ
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 body394Please respect copyright.PENANAMNfuDOPaWs
394Please respect copyright.PENANAILJIKmtRdW
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?394Please respect copyright.PENANAjxDtYmz3wO
394Please respect copyright.PENANAts8QA7YV9I
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 bed394Please respect copyright.PENANAXe48Kta7pF
394Please respect copyright.PENANALgxhmHhAOq
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 time394Please respect copyright.PENANACopQ7BwPkG
394Please respect copyright.PENANAERSvd9NYZV
"Ah, shit!" She screamed394Please respect copyright.PENANAAALbmjGj8N
394Please respect copyright.PENANAA63fzun3rG
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 shoes394Please respect copyright.PENANA8viuMoF4JS
394Please respect copyright.PENANAIlEIk6XfTZ
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 good394Please respect copyright.PENANARLMJGxA0QP
394Please respect copyright.PENANAC3z5AUEIp1
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 tardiness394Please respect copyright.PENANAOTTRD4hxMm
394Please respect copyright.PENANAdIOhzx4vAN
Alex cursed when the bell rang 394Please respect copyright.PENANAmJ40xJMfYp
394Please respect copyright.PENANAex8qqwkIHH
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 sure394Please respect copyright.PENANASYhKqqhGua
394Please respect copyright.PENANApsUAvmLMmR
Was there something she could do?394Please respect copyright.PENANA9FVFfuXsbz
394Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZnNzwKpL9
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 sun394Please respect copyright.PENANA6Uda1tX9Wf
394Please respect copyright.PENANArYpqCLdJbK
A hazy dream replayed in her mind. It appeared vividly and vibrantly. She could make out all the details unlike her other dreams394Please respect copyright.PENANAD1VsrIbFhx
394Please respect copyright.PENANA1HbFlTLnHi
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 face394Please respect copyright.PENANAhZHeOoA9yv
394Please respect copyright.PENANAIs2BBJEgUR
So it was real?394Please respect copyright.PENANAC5eIzhHOj1
394Please respect copyright.PENANANLNd7Uq85q
Her head snapped towards the school gates, already forming a plan394Please respect copyright.PENANAoOjVnkNc9o
394Please respect copyright.PENANALtjurHoZ9T
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 her394Please respect copyright.PENANA87xP2wPmoD
394Please respect copyright.PENANAQEfAulDzLW
It probably looked ridiculous if it didn't work394Please respect copyright.PENANAANnh0xgbd4
394Please respect copyright.PENANAxEEtGAnvkR
But it was worth the shot394Please respect copyright.PENANAj1GaFozbuX
394Please respect copyright.PENANAzbghljTivW
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 way394Please respect copyright.PENANA9D0a13E15k
394Please respect copyright.PENANAeIWmmWcNbC
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 trip394Please respect copyright.PENANAuAQN9IPFwE
394Please respect copyright.PENANA0L60C451Bk
Taking her time, she passed by the gates and entered the courtyard. She heaved a breath of relief394Please respect copyright.PENANAMoHBo9EqXl
394Please respect copyright.PENANA2ellI1Eyhh
394Please respect copyright.PENANAHYzcc6DJpR
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 floor394Please respect copyright.PENANAKGPjHohRTP
394Please respect copyright.PENANAiyuWatReqx
Maybe if she crouched and brisked walk... maybe that could work394Please respect copyright.PENANAJmDgI56k7Y
394Please respect copyright.PENANAW78Bbhii7p
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANAval2f2J5RB
394Please respect copyright.PENANAuA1pUB6IYd
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANATWO7IAGyO1
394Please respect copyright.PENANADGv4UNqFQn
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. 394Please respect copyright.PENANAr61KTuBOmV
394Please respect copyright.PENANAvjIuXUGPKO
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. 394Please respect copyright.PENANAnPGV3V5zkd
394Please respect copyright.PENANA6xENJeBki2
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANA2pw5SOQYIp
394Please respect copyright.PENANAi7y29gExAv
"Good morning, Mrs. Tilly!" He greeted her homeroom teacher.394Please respect copyright.PENANAnWJcgCZnLg
394Please respect copyright.PENANAEWpRDji7jW
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 cloak394Please respect copyright.PENANAdl4ciE16T7
394Please respect copyright.PENANAKWGJKSpTOW
She didn't look at the other students, if anyone noticed a foot without a body. 394Please respect copyright.PENANAKqLnj1UVGg
394Please respect copyright.PENANAMWoFD6EBLY
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANAlX5eaxdanX
394Please respect copyright.PENANARSfbZuBz76
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANAcbJTINdvP4
394Please respect copyright.PENANA0YTNGoK1OD
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.394Please respect copyright.PENANAwpOMNOUeXR
394Please respect copyright.PENANASwwlliDCa4
"Man, what a bummer" she said loudly and got up394Please respect copyright.PENANAqxkqUzWi1H
394Please respect copyright.PENANApP02k9gShi
Her seatmate, Logan, snapped his head towards her. She stared back lazily with a raised eyebrow.394Please respect copyright.PENANAp8jb1Tikpz
394Please respect copyright.PENANADn7inhlO0p
"When did you get here?" A horrified look filled his eyes.394Please respect copyright.PENANAebnwYEgMD8
394Please respect copyright.PENANA1u4x7SCyKF
"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."394Please respect copyright.PENANA1tFC71BB5Q
