Filius POV

I strode down the hallway as fast as my little legs could carry me. I was told to inform Rosalyn her sister would be leaving the school for a short period of time. I found the bronze eagle knocker, "What can't talk, but will reply when spoken to?"

I thought for a moment before answering the eagle's question, "An echo, isn't it?" The door swung open. All the students were sitting in the common room despite the lateness. They stared up at me with curious eyes. I refused to answer just yet.

"Rosalyn Capper, I need to speak with you." I squeaked and she came scampering from the back of the room. "I received your patronus, I unsealed the room, sir." I nodded, "Yed, but I must speak to you about something that happened to Susan."

She narrowed her eyes at me. "What's happened to Susan?" She looked terrified and I didn't blame her. All the commotion going on today had to do with her sister in a way and that would be upsetting to find out.

"There was a situation today and Susan saw it all. She is fine, but just in shock. Your parents wanted me to inform you that she will be leaving for a week or two." Rosalyn nodded.

"What did she see?" I shook my head at my prefect. "I can't tell you as it revolves around other people. Do not ask your sister either. This information does not need to be spread." She nodded once more and left.

Harry POV

(Earlier in the Day)

I watched as Susan left the common room in quite a hurry. I walked over to the boy she was speaking to.

"Excuse me, do you know where Susan is going? I'm supposed to stay with her."

"Oh, um, hello. I'm Leopold. She went to go inform the Professors on something important that could help them." I nodded. "You can go hang out with Noah, you both are friends right. Tell him to watch you until a professor comes to retrieve you." I nodded and left in search of Noah or Thomas. I spotted Ella and Noah sitting at the bottom of the boy's dorm staircase. They both looked up as I approached.

"Noah, I'm supposed to stay with you now I think." He looked extremely confused.

"What are you talking about Harry?" I looked back towards Leopold and where I last saw Susan. "Um, I'm not really sure. I was supposed to stay with Susan, but she just left. Someone named Leopold told me she said to go to you." Noah nodded.

Ella looked up at me, her eyes lighting up with an idea, "Hey, Harry? Do you know what's going on? Susan knows, but refused to tell us. Have you heard anything from the professors?" Now I was even more confused.

"Why would I know what's wrong? And what do you mean, what's happening?" They both looked at each other nervously. "We don't know exactly. We just know something is up." I nodded trying to think.

"Well, why don't we go find out?" They looked at each other again. "We can't leave the common room Harry. They've sealed us in." I knew the confusion and shock was shown visibly on my face. "It's fine Harry. Come on, you're probably tired. I have an extra bed in my dormitory."

I followed Noah up after bidding Ella goodnight. Noah pointed towards one of the empty beds. "Noah what's this?" One boy asked from his bed. There were five beds in the room. Three boys were staring at me. "Louis this is Harry. Snape's son. He's going to stay here tonight, while the Professors are dealing with whatever is going on. Harry this is Louis Simmons, Johnathan Fitz, and Rory Cox." I waved at them quietly. They nodded their greeting to me.

"Does the kid know what's going on?" Rory asked Noah. Noah shook his head and turned to me, "Harry, you can borrow some of my pajamas. They are probably way too big for you, but I can shrink them." I nodded nervously. I took the pajamas he handed me and he directed me to the loo to change.

I just wanted my sister and dad. Where were they? The way the students were talking it seemed as though something serious was going on. I hoped Anne was alright.

I quickly changed into the nightwear and walked back out of the restroom. Noah performed the charm on me, "Now you best be getting to bed. It's getting late. I'll be back in a couple minutes, I have to go downstairs to grab something. I nodded for what felt like the millionth time. I crawled into my bed, trying to force myself asleep when it flashed over my vision.

I was in a dusty, old classroom. My cheeks felt wet and red trickled from all over. I watched as a monstrous form stalked toward me. Doing things, awful things. I could feel everything. I recognized the boy, I met him at lunch. Why was he doing this to me? But this wasn't me. I was in the Slytherin house.

I snapped out of the vision and swung my head around wildly to see a nervous Noah and three terrified boys standing around me. Louis and Johnathan narrowed their eyes at me while Rory looked sympathetic.

"Harry, what happened? Did you have a nightmare or something? Rory called me up cause you were having a fit or something." I struggled to focus on him, muttering to myself.

"I need my dad, I need to know where Anne is." Noah just looked at me sadly. "Harry, I wish I could retrieve him, but he's dealing with a probable emergency right now. And we can't leave." I just shook my head at him whimpering.

"Noah, that boy, Burton I think his name was. You introduced me to him at lunch. Where is he?" Noah looked shocked at my question. An answer came, but not from him, from Thomas. "He's what this whole ruckus us about Harry. Why do you ask?" I looked at him, curiously.

"What did he do?" Thomas shook his head sadly, "I can't tell you that. Dumbledore told me not to indulge too much information with anyone. But you seemed rather shaken. Again, why do you ask about him?"

"I think . . . I think he's with Anne. I saw something." Thomas' eyes widened. "Out, everyone except Noah, out." The boys looked furious. They seemed to want to argue, but the look Thomas gave them made them think otherwise. "Harry, what did you see?"

"Um, I'm not entirely sure. I was trying to fall asleep and then my vision blurred over. It was like I was seeing from someone else's eyes. I saw that boy I met. Burton. I think I was seeing through Anne's eyes. There was hair in my face, red hair. A locket was cracked on the floor, Anne has the same one." Thomas nodded, thinking.

"What do you remember from the room? What did it look like?" I closed my eyes as if looking back into the room. "It was like a classroom. Very dusty. Very dark. The windows were stained. Every other one blue and black." Noah and Thomas looked at each other immediately, "Binns!" They both shouted this at the same time. "Noah, you stay here with Harry. I'll be back soon."

With that Thomas ran off.

Thomas POV

I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, jumping steps. I searched the common room for the only person that could get me out. Leopold. He was sitting on a couch.

"Leopold, I need to get out. It's an emergency!" He looked up exasperated and rolling his eyes. "Seriously, Susan just said the same exact thing. Said she knew where the girl was"

"Please Leo, I need to find a Professor, immediately. I know you can't do anything, so don't give me that crap because you're a prefect you can help." He glared at me, but pointed his wand at the door. I thanked him quickly and ran for the door.

I scrambled down the hall. I thought as I ran, where would all the professors be? Then it hit me. They would most likely be in Dumbledore's office if they couldn't find them. I'd been to Dumbledore's office earlier in the morning to inform him of what had happened, so I remembered the password.

I reached the stone gargoyle and whispered, "Chocolate eclair." It jumped out of the way, allowing me passage. I heard yelling coming from the office above. It sounded much like Professor Snape. I didn't even bother knocking and just barged in. The teachers looked both startled and angry at my appearance.

"Mr. Childers, how are you out of your dormitory?" Snape glared at me.

"I know . . . where she . . . is. I figured . . . it out." I gasped from lack of oxygen, from running so fast. Snape suddenly looked interested. "How?" I waited before answering, catching my breath.

"Susan figured it out before me. I don't know where she is. She left the dormitory before me. Well, that's not true, I do believe I know where Susan is. But I figured it out because of Harry." Snape narrowed his eyes at me questioningly.

"See, Harry was having a fit or something, not exactly a nightmare as he was still awake. I was there and saw it. When he woke, he kept asking us where Burton was. The other boys didn't understand, but I did because I was there with the whole thing last night. I told Harry that there was an issue revolving around Reggie and that's what all the teachers were doing. I told him I would not indulge him further though. I asked him why he wanted to know and he told me he thought Anne was with him. That he saw him through Anne's eyes. Please don't ask me how. I don't know. But Noah and I asked him to look back and tell us about the room they were in and he did. They're in-"

Just then a whispy rabbit patronus hopped into the room, "Professor, I found her. I found her and Reggie Burton. It's awful, come quick. She's lost a lot of blood. I stunned Reggie, I have the antidote with me. Come quick. Please. We are in Professor Binn's old classroom on the fifth floor." The voice was Susan's. I guess she found them.

"Yes, well that's it. She's right, that's the room Harry saw." They all looked stunned, but then jumped into action. "Thank you, Mr. Childers. Go back to your dormitory now." I nodded as I walked down the stairs with the teachers then parting ways.

Once they were gone, I began to run back towards the dungeon. I set my bloodhound patronus ran ahead of me, informing Leo to open the common room. It whispered the password and climbed into the common room. Once I was back in Leo sealed it back.

"So, what happened? How is it your back before Susan?" He waited curiously for the answer. I whispered back, "Susan found them and I went to inform the teachers where they were." Leo nodded. "What's happened to the girl?" I just shook my head.

"Susan said she lost a lot of blood, the poor lass. I just want to know what Reg was doing to her." Leopold raised his eyebrow at me, "You know we can find out, right?" I looked at him questioningly.

"Macilyn, the one who poisoned him, she's locked up in an empty dorm until the teachers come to get her. We could go ask her what the potion was intended to do." I laughed, "Like she'd tell us." Leo seemed to blush a bit and shied away. "What, Leo?"

"Well, I may or may not have some veritaserum." I could feel my mouth dropping to the floor. "Now where'd you get that?"

"Well, you know my father works in the auror department in the ministry. I might have knicked some." I grinned at him and shook my head. "Well, let's go use it then."

Once Leo had retrieved his vial of veritaserum we poured two drops in a goblet of water. We walked into the dorm, where Macilyn sat terrified on a bed. I handed her the water goblet and told her she should drink it while she could. She took a big gulp while Leo and I grinned at each other.

"Macilyn, did you sneak that potion in those chocolates you gave Reginold." She looked up sadly, "Yes. I wanted him to like me, but Mary Anne had to see him first, didn't she?"

"What type of potion was it, what was the name?" She watched us suspiciously as she answered unwillingly, "I don't know what the name was, just that it was a love potion. I took it from a potioneer, that's a friend of my mother. I overheard them talking about how powerful it was."

"So you don't know of any side effects." She shook her head. I groaned and Leo pulled me out of the room.

"Leo, I just want to know what happened to my friend."

"I know, Thomas, I know. I do, too."
