Kelsey and Harry, very calmly, walked to Room 501 where they found
Dumbledore and Dana. "Well, here she is! Okay Dana, there is nothing else,
so you can go now." With that Dana walked out of the room and down the
hall. "She traveled all the way here?" Kelsey asked. "Oh no no. You see she
appartated here, but you can't do that on the school so she must go out of
the school to appartate back home. Harry, is there anything else you need?"
Dumbledore asked. "Oh, he is here for me, is it alright if he stays, I
asked him to." Kelsey questioned.
"Your sister requested a private conversation with you, so it would be reasonable not to ask me, but ask her." At that very moment there was a shimmer in the corner of the room and there appeared Casey. She looked ghost-like at first but then became solid. "I see you have been working on your power as well Casey." Dumbledore noted. "Huh?" Kelsey said.
She knew this had something to do with what Casey needed to tell her the night she left. Dumbledore crept out of the room and whispered for Harry to follow.
Out in the hallway Dumbledore said, "I think they need some time alone. You might want to wait out here in the hallway if Kelsey does need you, but I think she will be just fine by herself." And with that Dumbledore headed down the hallway, to his office.
Harry knew that what Dumbledore said was true, and that Kelsey would be fine by herself. He sat outside the classroom anyway, just in case.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Casey, what did you just do?" Kelsey asked. "I know you have a power, I know that you and Angela and Vanessa all have powers, and well, I do too. I can astral project. Be in two places at once." Casey explained. "That was what I wanted to talk to you about, but then, you left."
"I am so sorry that I left you, but, what could I do? I hope my absence hasn't affected you." Kelsey said. "Well, that's the second reason I came here." Casey trailed off. "You see, your absence DID affect me, and I missed you. So, once I figured out how to use my power, I started coming here. In fact, I have been attending classes here, people know me! Isn't that great!" Casey said, hoping Kelsey would feel the same as she did.
But Kelsey didn't. "So, let me get this straight. You have been coming here, instead of your own school? You have been taking witch classes? How did you get everything? The robes, the wand, everything?" Kelsey questioned.
"Well, your going to laugh! You really are!" Casey was trying to take time; she didn't want to tell Kelsey. "Go on." Kelsey said.
"Okay, I projected the night that you and everyone went to that shopping place, I think they called it like Hogs something or something. Well, I followed you all there and I found all the shops there. I had money, but they didn't use our money, so I found a place that converted money. I then had the idea of going to Hogwarts regularly. I bought the robes and I got a wand at the Hogs place, and here I am!"
Kelsey didn't know how to react. She knew that Casey was doing something wrong, but at the same time it was comforting to know what her sister was up to, and that she was here instead of thousands of miles away.
"And no one noticed you really didn't go here? What about the teachers and such?" Kelsey asked. "Well, they really don't take attendance here, and they thought I was one of the students. Plus, the only people who knew who I really was you, Angela, Vanessa, those boys, that one girl, and Dumbledore. None of the teachers knew about me. Well, I am sure that they did, but they didn't know what I looked like and all, so. Kelsey, are you mad with me?" Casey asked back at her sister.
"No, actually I am glad that you are here. I missed you too. But still, I can't believe that you pulled all that off! Its amazing!" "Yeah, it is."
"Wait, but, so, what is going to happen? To you? Since you are already here, how? This is way confusing." Kelsey said.
"Yeah, no kidding. I hope that I will be able to stay. Who would we have to talk to about that?" "Well, I would imagine Dumbledore, since he is head and all. What time is it?" "Five fifty. Why?" "Why don't we go and talk to him now?" Kelsey said.
Casey shrugged as she got up out of her seat. Kelsey followed suit and opened the door for her sister. Kelsey saw Harry sitting outside and when he saw them, he abruptly got up.
"What's going on?" he asked. "We need to talk to Dumbledore. Oh, have you met my sister? No? Hmm, well, this is Casey, she has been going here without anyone else knowing." Harry gave Kelsey a confused look and she laughed.
"Yeah, that's the same look I had. We need to talk to Dumbledore, so you wanna come with us?" Harry nodded and the three headed to Dumbledore's office.
On the way there, Harry talked with Casey. "So what classes have you been taking? What year are you with?" "I went with the fourth year, and I'm not trying to brag or anything, but I think I got it down, what they are learning I mean. I am especially good with Charms, they are my specialty."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"What do you think that was all about?" Vanessa asked Angela. "I have no idea, but its best that Kelsey went, she can tell us about it later." Angela replied.
"HEY! DON'T THINK LIKE THAT VANESSA!" Angela yelled. "What? Oh, you're using your powers. I can't help it! You know weird things have been happening, you never know what could go wrong now!" Vanessa said in her defense.
"Girls," Lupin said, "I am sure there is nothing wrong. I want you to do five more of your drills and I think that we will be done for the night. Here Angela, I recorded this conversation today. I will go in another room and you try and concentrate to see if you can hear it. Vanessa, I laid out some more stuff, see if you can see what will happen to it or what has happened to it."
The girls said no more about Casey and Kelsey, and set to work on their drills.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Yes, I think that it would be best since Casey has already been here. I wanted to keep her away from the magical world for a bit longer, but now since she has already gotten familiar." Dumbledore said.
Casey looked ecstatic, and Kelsey was also very happy.
"Casey, listen very carefully. Go home and pack your things. Tell Dana this for me. Tell her that you will be coming here from now on. Tell her that once you are done packing, to use the Floo Powder to transport you and her here. Do you understand Casey?"
"Yeah. I have a question though, what's going to happen with my friends at my other school, what's the excuse going to be, as to why I am not there? Can I still talk to my friends?"
"I am sorry Casey, but no, you will not be able to talk to your friends about this. I will get Dana to tell your school and friends that you were transferred to another school, and you will only be back in the summers."
"She will? Will Angela, Vanessa, and I have to go back too?" Kelsey asked. "Yes, you will. I have my reasons, Harry knows right? Yes, but you will have to go back during the summers, you cannot stay here.
"Okay, Casey, go now. I will be waiting, don't take too long." Casey nodded and with another shimmer, she was gone.
"Kelsey, Harry. I don't want this to come out. Everyone already thinks that she is here, there will be no point in saying that she just got here. And please, do not tell anyone of her powers. I say this for her safety, for yours and your sisters' too." Dumbledore said at Kelsey. She and Harry both nodded solemnly as they were pushed for the door.
"Goodnight." Dumbledore said as he shut the door.
