As I opened my eyes, I looked at the window. How strange! There was no thunder and rain outside. I thought that it was just a part of my dream, then I went back to sleep. However, I heard the noise again. I was annoyed, therefore I started to search for the sound. Suddenly, I saw a light. It was from a book. It started glowing. A book could glow! Was I dreaming? I walked towards the book slowly. There was thunder again. I listened carefully. The sound came from the book. How odd! I was stunned. As I touched the pages, I was sucked into it. \u201cHelpppppp!\u201d I yelled.<\/p>\n<p>When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a big, neat station. There were a lot of people. I found myself was no longer in my pyjamas, but in my favourite casual wears. When did I change my clothes? I didn\u2019t remember. But it was not important. I had to find out where I was first. I wandered round the station. I found it familiar, as I had seen the place before. \u201cThe King Cross Station!\u201d I was dumbfounded and excited. But why was I here?<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, I saw a boy. He was short and thin. I walked closer to him. Then I saw a scar on his face. And that was a lightning scar. I knew who he was. He was <em>Harry Potter<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>Oh no! I knew where I was. I was inside a book! Just like the story book \u201cLand of Stories\u201d. Would I have to live here forever? I still had to go to school tomorrow! I couldn\u2019t miss any school days in secondary school! I was a bit scared. I wanted to cry, but I didn\u2019t. That was no use. I decided to seek help. The only one who could help me now was Harry Potter. Therefore, I filled Harry in my story and asked him for help.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUmm\u2026.I don\u2019t think I can help you,\u201d Harry answered. \u201dBut I think the teachers in <em>Hogwarts<\/em> can.\u201d \u201cThank you!\u201d My eyes gleamed. \u201cCome with me.\u201d said Harry. Then he led me to walk through the wall between Platform Nine and Platform Ten. We were in the Nine and Three Quarters Platform now. We got on the train.<\/p>\n<p>I was on the train to Hogwarts. It was awesome. I hoped I got my phone here. After that, Harry introduced me to his friends, Ron and Hermione. And we became good friends. When we arrived at Hogwarts, Harry took me to the professors. However, none of the professors knew how to transfer me back to my world. I was frustrated.<\/p>\n<p>Harry and his friends came to me and said, \u201dDon\u2019t worry, you can live here!\u201d However, I didn\u2019t want to live there (although, I had to admit living there was quite cool). Hermione said, \u201cDon\u2019t worry. I\u2019ve read a book about how to transfer people to another world, but it was old magic, I don\u2019t know if the spell can work well.\u201d \u201cNo problem. Just try.\u201d\u00a0 &#8220;Alright then, I am going to use the spell. \u2018Transfer Rex to -\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWait! \u201c cried Harry. Hermione stopped the spell. Harry patted my shoulder and said, \u201cNo matter where you go, Rex, remember we are friends.\u201d \u201cOk, thanks.\u201d \u201cThis is a gift,\u201d whispered Ron, \u201cfor our friendship.\u201d He handed me a wand. A wand! I was very delighted. \u201cThanks so much! Thank you! All right, Hermione, let\u2019s start the spell.\u201d Hermione spelled the spell out, \u201cTransfer Rex to another world!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood bye, my friends!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The next time I opened my eyes, I found myself in a room. However, it was not my bedroom. The room was dirty and messy. I saw a rope in front of me. \u201dWhat is it? Where is it from?\u201d I was curious, and I touched it. It was slippery. Then, I heard some noise.\u201dHisssssss\u2026\u2026\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I was shocked. I was scared. It wasn\u2019t a rope. It was a snake. There was a SNAKE in front of me. My biggest fear was snakes. I hate snakes. I thought they were horrible. And now, I was finished. It is because I knew where I was. It&#8217;s the Riddle House. The place where \u201cYou-know-who\u201d returned.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, a man walked into the room. \u201cVol-\u201c I was done. Oh no! Somebody helped me! I didn\u2019t want to die! I wanted to go home!<\/p>\n<p>The man(also known as Voldemort) knew what I was thinking about. However, he still pretended to be nice and said softly, \u201cWhy? Hello. Little boy. What are you doing over there?\u201d I was too scared to say something. My only thought was that I had to fight with him. Therefore, I took out my wand and yelled, \u201cExperlliarmus!\u201d (This was a spell that could make your enemy drop his\/her weapon.) However, the magic didn\u2019t hit Voldemort. So I used another spell, \u201cStupefy!!!\u201d (a spell that could let your enemy flew away for a distance) This time, it hit Voldemort. And that made him angry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow dare you fight with me! Avada Kedavra!!\u201d(a spell that could kill people) I hid for the magic, and used some spell (like\u201dExpecto Patronum) to protect myself. Voldemort was annoyed, and he yelled, \u201cYou are so annoying! Death Eaters! Come and help me to kill the boy!\u201d I saw the snake sliding towards me, and I was too busy to fight with Voldemort so I didn\u2019t have a hand to protect myself from the snake. Oh no! The snake was slugging around my foot and it was going to bit me. The last thing I saw was a flash of blue light, then I passed out\u2026..<\/p>\n<p>When I opened my eyes again, I was lying beside a tree. And there was no sight of Voldemort and his Death Eaters. I thought that I was in the heaven, but I was wrong. I saw three similar faces in front of me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHarry! Ron! Hermione!\u201d I cried happily. \u201dWhy are you guys here? And where am I?\u201d\u201dI sent you to the wrong place. I am sorry.\u201d Hermione said. \u201cWe went to find you immediately. We saw you nearly getting caught by the Death Eaters. Luckily, we were just in time to save you.\u201d \u201cThanks. So the blue light was from you?\u201d \u201cYes, it is.\u201d Ron answered. \u201cBy the way, Professor Dumbledore would like to see you.\u201d \u201cMe? Why?\u201d I asked. \u201cWe don\u2019t know why. Let\u2019s go back first.\u201d Harry said. \u201cAll right then.\u201d I agreed.<\/p>\n<p>When we went back to Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore was already there, waiting for me. When he saw me, he shouted joyfully, \u201cThank God! You are safe! Rex!\u201d \u201cHello, Professor Dumbledore. But &#8230;&#8230; but why do you know my name ?&#8221; &#8220;Of course I know your name! I am the one who sent you here!&#8221; Dumbledore whispered to me. &#8220;I know that you will have a lot of questions in your mind. And now, I am going to tell you the truth.&#8221; &#8220;The reason I sent you here was that, our kingdom, The Story Kingdom, wanted to teach you a lesson. We want to teach you that reading is fun. Rex. We know that you hate reading very much.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What? &#8220;I yelled. &#8220;No! Just the opposite !I l LOVE reading very much! Everyone calls me &#8216;Bookworm&#8217; in the class as I am always reading books!&#8221; &#8220;What? You are not the one who hates reading? So who is it?&#8221; &#8220;Maybe&#8230; it&#8217;s Herny Chan, the one who sits next to me in the class. He hates reading. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh I see,&#8221; murmured Dumbledore, who was still in a surprise. &#8220;So we picked the wrong person. Never mind that now. I will tell that to the king of the Story Kingdom. It&#8217;s my fault. I am sorry. Here is a key for you. It is the key to travel through books. I will give it to you now,&#8221; he handed the key to me. &#8220;This key can take you to any book you like. Whenever you want to go inside a book, just say &#8216;I order you to let me go into the book!&#8217; When you want to go back to your world, just say, &#8216;I order you to let me get out of this book! &#8216;You are now our Story Kingdom&#8217;s VIP. You can come anytime you like. We will always welcome you.&#8221; \u201cYes, we will.\u201d cried Harry. \u201cWe will always welcome you!\u201d \u201cOk. Rex, you can leave now. Remember to hold the key tightly. Good luck!\u201d Dumbledore said. \u201cThanks so much, everyone! Goodbye! I order you to let me get out of this book!\u201d \u201cBye, Rex!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Boom! I heard the thunder again. I opened my eyes and found myself at my study desk. I saw three items on my desk. They were a key, a wand and a booklet. It was a book report. Oh yes! I had to hand in my book report tomorrow! I was sucked into my book report. Haha! So funny. Of course, I wrote down &#8220;Harry Potter&#8221; in my book report. I tried to use my wand, but it was no use. I guess it would only work in the Story Kingdom. It was two o\u2019clock in the morning, so I went back to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, I was going to head to school. Last night I dreamed that I was playing with Harry, Ron and Hermione. We also wandered around Hogwarts and saw a lot of people and professor, and also&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRex Ng! Stop day dreaming!\u201d shouted my Geography teacher. \u201cConcentrate in class!\u201d(Geography was not my cup of tea. I hated Geography very much as I found it boring.) I couldn\u2019t tell anyone what I was thinking. They wouldn&#8217;t believe me, but never mind that.<\/p>\n<p>When it was reading lesson, Henry Chan groaned, \u201cOh! Why should we take the reading lessons? Oh!\u201d (He has said this for a billion times!) He threw his book on his desk. And when he touched the book, he screamed. Then he disappeared. After a minute, he was back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRex! I\u2019ve been to another world! I met Harry Potter there! Trust me! It\u2019s true! I\u2026I\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Umm. It seemed that I had got a \u2018friend\u2019 to travel through the Story Kingdom with me. What adventure would be the next? Would it be\u2026.Star Wars?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One night, I was awakened by the sound of distant thunder. As I opened my eyes, I looked at the window. How strange!
