Audrey wouldn't open her eyes. She didn't know which one would be worse, waking up at Hogwarts or waking up at home. After much debate in her mind, she opened her eyes. She was at Hogwarts. She sat up and saw that she wasn't alone. Dumbledore was in a chair next to her, sleeping.

"Ahem.." she cleared her throat loudly to see if he would wake. He mumbled something about lemon drops and wool socks and went back to sleep.

"Err, Hello? Professor? Wake up!" she said. Nothing, he was out cold.

Audrey smiled, but got up and shook him…

"Professor Dumbledore! WAKE UP!!" Finally, Dumbledore woke up.

"OH! You're up! Good, good…there's much to talk about. Here, put these on and I'll meet you outside." Dumbledore handed Audrey her white shirt and jeans and a plain black robe and left the room.

She changed quickly and met Dumbledore outside.

"Ok, follow me please!" Dumbledore led her past staring students and towards a dimly lit corridor.

"I must be dreaming…or in a coma…or dead…something. But this can't be real." she said after a few seconds of silence.

Dumbledore chuckled, "I assure you, you are non of the things you mentioned. Please step into my office…there is much to discuss."

Audrey entered Dumbledore's office and stared around the walls, amazed.

"Please, sit down. Like I said, there is much to be said!"

Audrey was too busy looking around when Dumbledore spoke.

"Huh what?"

"Please take a seat." he motioned to the chairs in front of his desk.

Audrey sat down and kept looking around.

"Audrey, I know where you come from"

This caught Audrey's attention.

"You do? Do you know how I can get back?"

"I do not know. You weren't supposed to be here for two more years, your mother and I agreed it was for the best…"

"Whoa…what? Go back…you and my mother? Not supposed to be here? Explain please because I think I feel the ground opening from under me."

"Calm down," said Dumbledore, "breathe. Let me explain myself better…"

"Yes, I really, REALLY, think you should."

"Your mother and me…"Dumbledore started, "Well, you see…we met once. I was in the States for a reunion for the Headmasters and Mistresses of the Magic schools around the world. And your mom, well, she was there. She was the host of the evening…quite lovely really…"

"Oh my gawd! I really hope this doesn't lead to were I think it does…"

"Well then I won't go into details. I love your mother, I really do. That's why I've never married. I've always hoped she'd come back to practicing magic…"

"My mother? Magic? C'mon…"

"What's so strange about it…"

"MY MOTHER DOESN'T HAVE A MAGICAL BONE IN HER BODY!"

"Well, she does. But she decided that being my daughter was, for some reason, too much for you to handle. So we agreed that when you turned 13, we would tell you about everything and you could make up your own mind."

"But I turned 13 2 years ago! What happened?"

"JK ROWLING! That's what happened. You see, she was a student here at Hogwarts…she was always doodling or scribbling in her textbooks. Well, anyway, she went into the Muggle world after she fell in love with this bloke. And after THAT was over, she decided she wasn't coming back to the Magic world…she was going to write about it. Especially about the adventures of our student, Harry."

This, in a twisted way, made sense to Audrey, except…

"Ok, so because of her…I couldn't come here or…what?"

"Exactly, you found out way before we expected. And your mom said you had become smitten with it and now she wouldn't allow me to talk to you…she made the decision for you saying that it wasn't fair that you already knew…that she didn't stand a chance…"

"Ok…note to self…kill mom…" mumbled Audrey.

Dumbledore chuckled.

"Don't…I'll send her an owl. In the meantime…would you like to stay here at Hogwarts and study magic…like you were meant to do since your birth?"

Audrey looked at him incredulously.

"Leave all my friends behind? My mom? The only life I've ever known to come here into a world, that I just found out existed?"

"Yes, I guess. But of course visiting days will be provided for you…so you can see your friends and such…"

"How did I get here? That is the only thing that still doesn't make sense."

"Apparently, you wanted this world so badly that somehow…it got you here. So, I'm hoping…you'll stay."

Audrey thought for a moment.

"Sure…why not?"

Dumbledore smiled.

"All right then! Let's get started"
