A/N: Hi, I wouldn't mind a beta reader for this story, I have been posting it in every chapter, oh well guess i will keep asking. Sorry for the long wait, i was taking a slight break from writing. I was getting confused as most of my stories are similar. Only one of them is not about harry potter. Anyway am slightly back writing, slowly though. I do my best to check it over for mistakes, but it would greatly improve if i had someone to look over the chapters.

Chapter 17

As the entire school stared in a shocked silence at the space she used to and Harry smiled nervously licking his dry lips, unable to meet anyone's eyes and explain what had just happened as it made him feel uncomfortable, although he was used to people pointing and staring this 'was just unexpected of Susan to Orb in front of everyone' he thought worriedly.

"She must have been desperate to get home after being stuck with me for a while, wherever home is?" said Sirius giving Harry a pointed look, breaking the silence and smiling awkwardly at Dumbledore, who put out his hand where she had stood, saying...

"There should be warm air or a warm feeling where she apparated, how is she able to do it in the school" he asked, rather confused.

Frowning, Harry replied, "she can Apparate anywhere", not mentioning Orbing, as he 'did not want to tell him in front of the entire school, that would only confuse them' he thought, looking down at his feet feeling rather hot and sweat trickling down his face and neck, just glad he was back beside Dumbledore and the other's' he thought as they entered the Great Hall with everyone staring and whispering and pointing. He was used to that as they reached Hermione who stood up and gave him a warm hug.

"Glad you'r back from wherever you were" she said pulling away smiling at him having loads of questions to ask, but knew he would not tell them in front of everyone. Ron also stood up and shook his hand "it's good to see you mate" he said rather nervously his hand all sweaty, also having questions on his mind.

Smiling, Harry and Sirius sat down and had something to eat, as the other's watched them, as if expecting something to happen.

"Who is that woman and how come her Apparition is different from our's?" Fred curiously asked Harry, as he took a bite of his toast.

"She is a friend of ours, called Susan whom rescued Harry from the Dursley's and fed him proper meals and looked after him properly like a family should and her Apparition is different, cause she is not from around here, so her magic is slightly different" Sirius replied, taking a long drink of water.

Harry coughed and cleared his throat, reminding Sirius of what to tell them, nodding, Harry said "she took me to her home and helped me, so am grateful to her for doing that and am glad that i have her as a friend" reluctant to answer any questions, 'where as Sirius seemed to be chipper than him, obviously glad to be out of that horrible reality he did not like one bit. He was worried that they would discover where Susan actually came from and he was worried about the amount of time he would have to spend in the white space and how on earth was he going to hide it from everyone' he thought losing his appetite, so he put the toast down and took a drink asking "what time is it here?"

"It's breakfast time, 7.30am and a Saturday, so no classes today" Hermione replied asking "Where were you to get confused about what day and time it is?"

"We can't really say anything where we have been, it's a bit like the time with the necklace you had several years ago," Harry replied smiling at her, giving her and Ron a clue to where he had been 'Glad the time and date had not changed that much' he thought staring at his half eaten toast.

"Were just glad you'r both okay and I suppose we should thank Susan for rescuing you" said Hermione with a knowing look at them both.

"You probably won't meet her again, she has gone back home" Harry said, when he heard a faint voice calling his name. Looking around he couldn't see where the voice was coming from, but realised it was in his head, growing slightly louder.

As it got louder he knew it was Piper calling him. "Piper" he whispered.

"What did you say?" Sirius asked not hearing him.

"Piper"

"Who's Piper?" asked Ron confused.

"Just a friend" said Harry standing up, "I have to make a call" putting a hand on his pocket, pretending to have a mobile phone or a pager.

Leaving, Harry hurried out of the Great Hall and soon got to the room of Requirement and went inside and the brown door appeared at the far end.

Heading over, he knocked and tried the handle, when it opened revealing Piper, who grabbed him and gave him a hug before he could react.

"Piper" said Leo with a smile. "Let him breath"

"Sorry, I am that happy to see you" as Leo shook his hand. "What happened, you must tell us everything?" as they guided him into magic school.

"I found the stick and it was Susan and Sirius who changed me, luckily Tom wasn't near enough to stop them" All of them un aware that Ginny had followed him, she had pretended to go to the bathroom, but her curiosity had got the better of her and she now stood at the entrance way of the room, seeing a brown door that was not there before and those two people she had never seen or heard of, 'except the name Piper she had over heard the man say', as she made her way over to the door as it closed behind Harry.

Hand shaking slightly, Ginny reached out and turned the handle and it opened wide slowly and she could see the backs of Harry and those people walking down a dark corridor with many doors.

She was about to call his name, but some loud alarm went off, causing the three of them to turn in surprise. "Hey" said the woman.

"Ginny" Harry gasped, stopping Piper going forward and he instead went. "Did you follow me?" he asked coming closer.

She nodded, as the alarm went off, "what is this place?", she yelled above the noise as she stepped though the open door looking about.

"She really shouldn't be here" said Piper coming behind him. "Memory dust" she whispered.

"Maybe she should know about this place" he told them.

"Are you crazy?" said Piper.

"It would be easier if someone except Sirius knew, I wouldn't mind telling Hermione and Ron"

"That's out of the question" Said Piper. "I suppose she should know" she said rather reluctantly.

"This is another Magic School, i am surprised the door opened for you" said Harry.

"Another school" she replied. "How long is this corridor?"

"No one knows" Said Piper, all following them along. "Our magic is different from your's"

"What do you mean different?" Ginny asked confused, as they came to a room with tables, chairs and books.

"There's only so much we can tell you, we don't use wands, we use our mind and these" showing her hands.

"Who are they?" she asked as she saw a couple of men and women dressed in white and golden robes. "Why did the alarm go off?" the man asked stepping forward.

"It went off because of my friend Ginny and we have decided to let her know about this place" said Harry.

"I hope it's only one person you tell and not the whole school"

Harry nodded in response, as Ginny shook his outstretched hand. "I am Ginny" she said smiling, unsure of what to expect.

"I'm Steven" said the man with short black hair and glasses. "I am an elder"

"What's an Elder?"

"Guardians of innocent being's, I must go back home and inform the others" he replied stepping back words and Orbed out in front of them.

"That's the same way the woman Apparated" she said. "How many Elder's are there?"

"Lot's, i used to be one and now I am headmaster of this school" Leo said smiling at her. "Don't worry no Demon's can get in here, it's safe here"

"Your the headmaster, Demon's" she asked.

"Monsters who try and kill us all"

"A bit like the Voldemort who keeps on trying to kill us"

"I suppose so"

"I am a bit like Susan, a guardian of innocent beings" said Harry, unsure how to explain it. "I can Apparate just like they can" Orbing to the other side of the room, causing her to stare. "It has to be kept a secret from the others and i may have to go away to the white space where Susan is at the moment a lot, only Dumbledore and Sirius know i am like them and I wont grow any older than i am now"

"What do you mean you wont grow a day older?"

"We don't grow any older than the time we become a white lighter, it's what we are called"

"How are you going to keep that a secret, while everyone else grows older you still stay the same age?" as Susan appeared before them asking...

"What's she doing here?" clearly confused.
