Sophie peered up at the directions and read them over. So this was how fortune cookies were made. Cool. She looked at the numbered steps at the bottom and realized she needed to shrink her parchment small enough to fit inside the cookie. That seemed easy enough. She wasn't too sure about the cooking part yet.

She gathered her three pieces of parchment and laid them out before her. She flicked out her wand and held it firmly in her right hand. She pointed her wand at the first fortune and said, "Reducio!" She whipped her wand in a V-type movement. She let the spell go until the parchment was the perfect size, and then she ended the spell.

Then she did the same with the second fortune. "Reducio!" she said, again making that V-type movement. Once she'd repeated the spell with the third and final fortune, she was all set to go. She had three fortunes all hopefully the perfect size for a fortune cookie.
