*******************************************************************

It had been a very normal year so far for Harry Potter. So far, Snape had deducted over a hundred points from Gryffindor, and each day he got into a verbal fight with Malfoy, although due to some reasons only Harry, Draco and Ginny understood, they weren't as bad as they normally would have been.

Hermione was still a bookworm, and Ron still loved Quidditch and beating Harry at chess, the only difference now was Hermione and Ron were a couple. One that fought almost constantly, but a couple nontheless.

One very surprising item he was stunned about was Ginny, as in Ron's little sister, was currently dating Malfoy. As in Draco. Harry had been totally shocked about that turn of events upon hearing about them from Ginny, who had been unable to keep their secret but begged him not to tell.

Voldemort, for reasons no one understood, had been silent and hadn't done anything for some time- since their last meet at the graveyard. (AN: During Goblet of Fire.) It was making the young wizard rather nervous to have his enemy so quiet.

On the good side, their DADA teacher was once again Professor Remus Lupin, back by popular demand of the students (mostly Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw wanted him back, but even a few Slytherin asked for the werewolf). Along with his pet dog, Snuffles, that is.

Harry smiled to himself as he heard Ron and Hermione aruging again. Ginny was staring dreamily at the Slytherin table, where Draco was trying his best to pretend he didn't notice the other girl but more then once was found meeting his girlfriend's eyes.

Harry sighed and looked down at the table and his dinner, which, although very appetizing and delicious looking and tasting, he had eaten very little of. Lately, he had felt slightly left out with everyone around him becoming part of a couple.

He had been asked out by more then a few girls, and even a few guys, but he still hadn't found the right person for him. He didn't care which sex it was, he just wanted someone who understood what it was like to be in the spotlight all the time and loved him because of him, not because he was Harry Potter.

So far, this person was still unfound, to the young Potter's dismay.

"Harry? Harry?!" Harry blinked, snapped out of his thoughts by an impatient Hermione. "Are you all right?" Suddenly, her look became one of corcern. "Does your scar hurt?" Harry shook his head quickly.

"I'm all right, Herm." Harry said with a smile. "Good. I was just wondering, have you finished your book report yet?" Harry saw Ron rolling his eyes and tried not to smile. "Almost. Why, do you want to go to the library after dinner and finish it?" Hermione nodded. "I've finished, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to go over it for mistakes again."

*********

Harry rubbed his eyes with one hand, then adjusted his glasses and tried to muffle a yawn. It had to be at least 11:00, and he was exhausted. His eyes were aching from staring at the print of their books after so long.

Even Hermione and Ron seemed tired, and that was unusual. Normally, Ron would have been chattering away about the Quidditch practice the next morning and Hermione would have been scolding about one test or another.

They entered the entrance hall, seeing as how it was the easiest was back to Gryffindor from the library. Harry was dreaming his nice warm bed and of how nice it would be to curl up in it when...

BANG! BANG! BANG!! All three stopped and looked at each other, puzzled. "What was that?!" Hermione asked curiously. Harry looked around, dropping his things and instinctively reaching for his wand.

"Please! Let me in! Please, oh I beg of you! Open the door, please! Please!" A female's voice, sounding greatly frightened, came through the thick door. Ron's mouth fell open and Hermione's eyes widened.

Harry shook his head from his stunned stupor and rushed to the door. He fumbled with the locks before opening it. A body fell and Hermione and someone else screamed. Something inside Harry shrieked to be heard and he slammed the door shut.

He caught sight of Crystal Blue eyes before they fell closed. Harry looked at the girl, shocked, as Ginny and Draco rushed over. Ron was too freaked to demand what Draco was doing with his sister.

"We'll go get McGonagall, Lupin and Dumbledore!" Ginny blurted and, taking Draco's hand, they ran from the room. "We'll get Madam Pomfrey!" Hermione gasped. She and Ron rushed away. Left alone with the girl, Harry examined her closely.

She had long blonde hair, and there was an odd crown of what looked like diamond's on her head. As Harry had seen, her eyes were blue. She wore a simple, ripped dress and looked rather beat up. She was pale and with her was a single bag.

She moaned suddenly and he jumped before hurrying to her side. He knelt beside her, sliding his arm beneath her neck to support her. "Are you all right?" He asked anxiously.

She moaned again and her eyes fluttered, opening slowly to reveal a startling blue overshadowed with misery. "Help..." She managed to whimper. "Shh." Harry told her quickly. "Don't speak. My friends have gone to get help..." She nodded slowly.

"You should sleep." Harry said in a whisper, feeling for some reason it was wrong to speak out loud. She nodded again, staring into his green eyes with an intensity that made Harry feel strange.

"Thank-you." Serena sighed as her eyes drifted closed and her body relaxed. Before it did, her slim hand found Harry's and she clutched it tightly as she sank into a peaceful sleep filled with Emerald eyes of concern and safety.

"Harry!" Professor Dumbledore, McGonagall and Lupin rushed into the room, followed closely by Ginny and Draco. Right behind them were Ron and Hermione with Madam Pomfrey.

"Who is she, Harry?" Lupin asked. Harry, feeling embarrassed, almost slid his arm out from under the girl but at the last second kept it there. 'Why does this feel so familiar?' He wondered.

"I don't know, Professor. She just fell into the entrance hall when we opened the door." Harry said. Pomfrey shook her head as she stepped forward. "Well, shoo Mister Potter. We must get this girl to the infirmary!"

Harry leaned back as the girl was levitated onto a stretcher, it had been impossible for him to do so beforehand as she had been in his lap. However, when Harry tried to pull his hand out of hers, he discovered this girl had no intention of releasing his.

"Let go, Mister Potter!" Ordered the nurse. Harry felt very silly when he had to answer. "I can't." "What do you mean, you can't?" Asked McGonagall. "I mean she won't let go, Professor."

To prove his point, Harry let his hand go slack and tried to pull it away from the unconscious girl. It was no good. This girl had an iron grip.

Pomfrey gave him and irritated look but shook her head, seeing the boy was right. "Well then, you'll just have to come along to the infirmary then!" She said and started off briskly.

Harry almost had to run to keep up, giving a helpless glance towards Ron and Hermione as he tightened his grasp on the girl, making it more comfortable for him. The three professors followed them to the infirmary after telling Ron, Hermione, Ginny and Draco to go to bed.

After the girl had been tended, Madam Pomfrey decided the best course of action, since the girl still refused to release Harry, was give Harry a bed beside her to sleep in when he felt tired.

"Try to sleep, Harry." Lupin said, giving Harry a sympathetic look. Harry gave a weak smile in return, sitting on a stool beside the girl's bedside. "Good-night." The professor shut out the light and closed the door.

Sitting alone in the dark, save for the light of the Moon, Harry looked at the girl before him. 'Who are you and where did you come from?' He wondered. But moreso then anything...

"Why do you feel so familiar?"
