I was in Potions with Dawn and Xander when a vision hit.

I'm not the one who's so far away

When I feel the snake bite enter my veins.

Never did I wanna be here again,

And I don't remember why I came

This time the pain was unbearable. The images terrible. I knew they were of the past in this realm. They were just so sad.

Images of my parents dieing and me and Harry getting hit with the curse. Then It flashed to Patty, Andy, and Prue all dying. Then it flashed again to Buffy talking to Dawn then jumping off the tower. The scene switched to Spike and Anya dying, and then ended with Leo dying then Prue dying at the hands of Caleb.

When I came out I clutched my stomach and coughed.

"Potter you alright?" Snape asked.

I couldn't answer. The images were imprinted in my mind. All I could do was shake my head no.

"Class dismissed," Snape said and all the kids ran out.

I tried to take a deep breath, but it hurt. Snape picked me up and we started walking. The torches lined along the walls lighting up our way.

Candles raise my desire,

Why I'm so far away.

No more meaning to my life,

No more reason to stay.

Freezing, feeling,

Breathe in, breathe in...

I'm coming back again...

Kailie started getting really hot. She was sweating.

"Snapey......when did it get dark?"

"It's still daytime Potter. You alright?" Snape asked.

"No....It's really dark.....I can't see anything......Snapey," Kailie then got scared.

Snape was grateful that Dawn and Xander had went back to their dorms when told. They wouldn't take this well.

"It's alright Potter. We'll take care of this," Snape said as he neared the hostpital wing.

I'm not the one who's so far away

When I feel the snake bite enter my veins.

Never did I wanna be here again,

And I don't remember why I came."

"I don't like the dark," Kailie whispered then let out a whimper.

Snape honestly felt bad for the girl. She looked really scared. One thing he had learned about Kailie was that it was not easy to scare her. He opened the doors to the hospital wing. The smell filling the air.

"No hospitals," Kailie whispered. "No more....no more...."

She was delusional.

"Please. Don't leave me in the hospital," She pleaded to the Professor.

Poppy looked at Snape then the girl.

"I'll call Dumbledore so he can find her a room away from here," She said then went to her office.

Kailie rested her head against Snape's chest. He was shocked at what this girl was doing. She was warming up to him.

You can pick on me, try to annoy me, or anything else that pops into your mind, but behind it all I will always respect you for what you have done. Just so you know that you never can annoy me

Her words filled his head. Dumbledore walked in and led Snape and the sleeping girl to a hidden room behind a painting. Snape set her down then stepped out with Dumbledore.

"What's wrong with her?" Dumbledore asked.

"She had a vision again. This time it must have been bad because she couldn't breathe. Then she couldn't see anything," Snape answered.

"Curious," Dumbledore said. "I think that she should spend some time alone. Would you go in there and make sure she's comfortable?"

"Sure," Snape said as Dumbledore walked off.

Kailie was tossing and turning. She whimpered and a tear trickled down her pale cheek. He walked over and placed the blankets over her after magically placing her in her PJ's. Snape was about to leave when she weakly grabbed his wrist.

"Snapey?"

"What Potter?"

"Can you stay? Just tilll I sleep?"

She was worried. He pulled up a chair and sat as she fell into a nightmare filled sleep.

Hazing clouds rain on my head,

Empty thoughts fill my ears.

Find my shade by the moonlight,

Why my thoughts aren't so clear.

Demons dreaming,

Breathe in, breathe in...

I'm coming back again...

"That girl is rubbing off on him," Dumbledore mumbled as he walked away from Snape.

Snape was probably worried for the girl. She had shocked both himself and Snape by the way she looked at him for help. There was something more about Kailie that no one had yet to realise.

*****

Snape got up to leave. As he walked to the opened painting he took one last look at the sleeping girl before walking to his classroom.

I'm not the one who's so far away...

I'm not the one who's so far away...

I'm not the one who's so far away
