There are only two basic rules:
1. Sentences must begin with the corresponding alphabetical letter. I'll begin with an "A" sentence, the next person will begin their sentence with a "B" word, the next person will add a "C" sentence, etc, etc.

2. You must wait until another member has posted below your comment before you can contribute another sentence. (no double-posting)

The Beginning

[end1essly.livejournal.com]

As soon as Malcolm the Muggle touched the discarded toilet paper roll and fell into the middle of Diagon Alley, he knew he had made the wrong decision.

Blushing, he pulled up his trousers and hurried to the side of the alley, staring bemusedly at the oddly-dressed folk in the exact same way they were ogling him.

"By golly-whiz-eriffic!! Where am I?" Malcolm wondered looking utterly confused.

Checking behind him, he saw nothing but more strange people and buildings.

"Dang," Malcolm whispered to himself. "Where am I?"

Claire//Puff/1

Even though he was confused, he couldn't help but be excited too.

Fantastic-looking things were walking all around Malcolm, including this man who looked like he was AT LEAST ten feet tall.

Claire//Puff/2

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

"Gosh," Malcolm said, staring at the man for what was probably an impolite amount of time.

Tasha//Gryffindor//2

[clzair.livejournal.com]

"Hullo, do I know you?" The man said in a loud voice, peering down at Malcolm.

Claire//Puff/3

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

"I... I..." Malcolm stammered, looking frightened.

Tasha//Gryffindor//3

Jabbering like an idiot, Malcolm edged away from a man and ran into the closest shop to get away - a shop that seemed to be very loud with hoots and feathery flutters.

Claire//Puff/4

[cheapxdate.livejournal.com]

"Keep yer hands off the cages," an old man grumbled from behind the counter of the shop. "The owls bite."

kelly//gryff//2

"Lovely," Malcolm thought to himself. "owls, what next?"

Claire//Hufflepuff/5

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

Maybe that was a bad question to ask, as just then he backed into a bookshelf and knocked some books to the floor.

Tasha//Gryffindor//4

[clzair.livejournal.com]

"Nothing I say seems to keep you people from making a mess!" the shopkeeper yelled at him, brandishing something that looked like a twig and waving around at the pile of books on the floor.

Claire//Hufflepuff/6

"Ok, I'm out of here," Malcom said, pushing the door open and returning to the busy alley.

kelly//gryff//3

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

Praying that something else crazy like that wouldn't happen, he walked down the street.

Tasha//Gryffindor//5

[clzair.livejournal.com]

Questions started popping into Malcolm's head: where was he, was he going to get out alive, could things get any weirder?

Claire//Hufflepuff/7

[mmailliw.livejournal.com]

Right that moment, his questions were answered.

William//Slytherin//1

[clzair.livejournal.com]

Standing in front of him was a strange man, dressed in a particularly strange navy-blue cloak with stars on it; "Good afternoon, Malcolm," he said calmly.

Claire//Hufflepuff/8

[cheapxdate.livejournal.com]

Trying to remain polite, Malcolm returned the sentiment, though hewas just as confused as ever.

kelly//gryff//4

[clzair.livejournal.com]

Understanding nothing of what was going on, Malcolm's arm was gripped by the strange man and he was steered into a nearby ice cream shop.

Claire//Hufflepuff/9

[cheapxdate.livejournal.com]

"Very interesting," the man muttered, pushing Malcolm into a booth and studying him.

kelly // gryff // 5

[clzair.livejournal.com]

"WHAT'S interesting?" Malcolm practically shouted, upset at being so disoriented and scrutinized by this man with the most absurd beard he had ever seen.

Claire//Hufflepuff/10

[cheapxdate.livejournal.com]

"Extraordinary, really," the man said, ignoring Malcolm's question.

kelly // gryff // 6

"You're... you're really starting to make me think I've gone crazy," Malcolm said out loud, mostly to the room in general rather than to the man.
