Stolen

Chapter Two: This is not happening

Kelley woke up and sat up and immediately wished she hadn't. Her head felt like it had been hit with something hard. A car, maybe an anvil. There was no mistaking it damn well hurt enough.

She blinked a few times trying to place where she was. Nothing looked familiar. For one it wasn't even dark. It had been when she was in her room.

Wait…

She wasn't even in her room anymore! What the hell was going on here? Where the hell was she? This wasn't right! This wasn't right and more importantly how in the hell had she got here?

She felt disorientated and lost and then suddenly she remembered. Everything. Fawkes.

Fawkes the Phoenix had been in her room. A character from a book had been in her room. And then she remembered nothing.

Remembering nothing could not be a good thing. She needed to know where she was and what had happened to her and as far as she knew that wasn't happening. She slowly sat up moving slowly so that her head didn't kill her and then when she was sure her nausea had left her she stood up and looked properly at where she was.

It appeared to be a huge castle. A little voice whispered in her head but she shushed it.

That just wasn't possible.

For god's sake Kelley get a grip

She shook her head and moved a little further now she felt she had the strength to carry on. She walked down the corridor, because that's what it was, a corridor.

She frowned. Ok where was she? This had to be the most surreal experience of her life. Kelley had always been level headed about stuff like magic. She believed it existed in one form or another just as she believed in Spirits.

There was just to many unexplained occurrences for there not to be. And in Kelley's mind this defiantly counted as an unexplained occurrence. She couldn't explain anything about this other than she was lost and she had no idea how to correct it.

She wondered aimlessly through the mind-boggling maze of corridors wondering what she was going to do. She glanced out the window and saw that it stormy here too. Nowhere near as bad as it had been at home…

…But still…

Somewhere in the distance a bell rang. It startled Kelley out of her musings. Then suddenly the halls were filled with kids. Some older and some younger than her. All chattering. No one seemed to take any notice of her but she watched in fascination.

The students, for that is what she guessed they were, were wearing black robes and carrying book bags. Kelley was now more confused than before. What could this possibly mean?

She thought about it…

Well it could mean…

No. She would not accept that as an answer. No. That was impossible. The logical side of her brain was frantically trying to find an explanation for the occurrence. But her imagination seemed to be coming up with more plausible explanations even if they were ridiculously over the top.

They seemed to fit better than anything else she could come up with. What could that mean. She was so confused and she didn't like not knowing things. It made her feel vulnerable and that was another thing that was unacceptable.

She realised she was getting some odd looks from some of the people in the halls. Well that wasn't surprising she did look different to them, they were in black robes and she was in jeans and a t-shirt.

Yeah, only a slight difference then.

At that moment three people approached her. She looked at them and nearly swallowed her tongue. "Hey," A skinny boy about 5 9 with unruly black hair and round glasses covering green eyes said.

"Hi." She whispered. "I'm Harry. Harry Potter." Kelley nearly dropped dead. She struggled to just smile. But she forgot that no reaction at all would be just as bad as looking at the lightening bolt scar on his forehead.

"Kelley Anderson." She whispered. "I've never seen you here before." The girl holding Harry's hand said. "I'm Herminone Granger."

Herminone was about the same height as Kelley with bushy brown hair that went down her back. She had brown eyes that seemed wise beyond her years.

"Hi. Well erm…I don't actually go here. I'm confused actually. I don't know how I got here." Kelley said truthfully.

She couldn't believe it! She was talking to Harry Potter and Herminone Granger! She was actually in Hogwarts.

Hell! How had that happened? Kelley watched Harry and Herminone glance at each other and then glance at the person with them. Kelley nearly swallowed her tongue.

It was Ron Weasley. He towered over his two friends at maybe 6 1 with bright red hair that was longer than she expected falling to just below his ears. It suited him.

"How do we know we know to trust you?" He asked at last after staring at her for a moment. "Oh yeah because a 16-year-old Death Eater is so common." Kelley said before she could stop herself.

Why did she always speak before thinking things through? She really needed to learn to keep her mouth shut.

She threw her hand over her mouth. Herminone, Harry and Ron just stared at her. She knew why. Not many people were so outspoken in Hogwarts since Lord Voldemort's return. Well, with the exception of Harry himself.

Although she didn't know how far into sixth year this was. She had to guess it was because Harry and Herminone were holding hands and that story certainly hadn't been told yet.

"Okay how are you and where have you come from?" Herminone demanded. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you." Kelley said truthfully. She couldn't believe this herself.

"There is a lot of things I wouldn't have believed long ago." Harry said looking at her in such away Kelley thought he was looking right through her.

The feeling wasn't one she enjoyed.

"Believe this, you wouldn't believe. Look, I want to tell you I really do but I get the feeling you all think I'm a god-damned Death Eater right now."

She watched them as the three friends seemed to confer without speaking and at last Ron asked, "What lesson have we got next?" "Potions." Was Harry's glum reply. "Then I have a free." Ron said, his face lighting up.

"We'll skip. We need to see Dumbledore." Harry said.

Kelley nearly keeled over in relief. Dumbledore! He'd know what to do. He'd totally know what to do.

"Harry I'll take her. Snape will have a fit if you and Herminone don't turn up. He'd love to have a reason to throw you out." Ron said. "You can't give him a reason. Especially since your actually passing the class right now."

"Ron's right." Herminone said. "Come on if we run we can still make it to the dungeons on time." Herminone smiled at Kelley and said, "Look Dumbledore will help you figure this out. We're all just on edge right now."

Kelley nodded. "Harry come on! Ron will take care of her." "Meet us in the Common Room at break Ron?" He asked. "Yeah sure." Ron smiled.

"We'll see you soon." With that Harry and Herminone took off at a run towards the dungeons. Ron watched them go and then turned to Kelley.

"I'm sorry if we were a little demanding of you. We're all on edge right now and you just don't know who to trust now."

"I understand." Kelley said. And she did. She couldn't imagine what it must be like to not know who to trust even in the place where they had previously thought to be the safest place they could be.

Ron led Kelley through a mind numbing series of corridors until he reached a stone Phoenix. "Midget Gem." Ron said. Kelley gasped as the Phoenix began to move.

She had read it described in the books and seen it re-enacted in the movies but seeing it now was amazing. Not the spiral staircase in itself, just that it was another feature of a world Kelley had once thought to be make believe.

A world, made up by an authors vivid and colourful imagination but now she was stood in it, talking to the characters and taking part.

It was all so surreal. Ron watched her reaction with an amused smile. He wondered where she had come from. She was obviously aware of the magical world, her knowledge of the Death Eaters proved that.

But her awe of simple magical tasks had his mind boggled. Who was Kelley Anderson really?

Ron stepped on the staircase and motioned for Kelley to do the same. She followed him taking an hesitant step. She smiled relieved and her smile grew when Ron smiled.

They reached the door in a matter of moments and Ron stepped off and knocked at the Headmaster's door. A voice sounded from within. "Come in!" Ron pushed open the door and motioned for Kelley to go in before him.

She did feeling hesitant and shy. She wasn't sure why. She was generally more out spoken. What was so different?

Oh yeah. She remembered now.

She was in Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, a place she had believed couldn't exist and now because of some freak occurrence she was stood in a world she had previously thought was a book.

Yeah.

That would be why she was hesitant. Now everything made sense.

Right.

Kelley stepped in the office and couldn't hold back a gasp. It was even more elegant and breath taking than the book described. She glanced at the back walls and saw the portraits looking at her.

Headmaster Dippet just smiled and winked when she caught his eye. Ok. That was strange. The portraits were never usually so accommodating to strangers. What was going on here?

She was so busy looking round the office she didn't notice a flash of gold until she felt a weight on her shoulder. She looked up and smiled. "Fawkes." She whispered.

At that moment Albus Dumbledore entered the room, She looked up and he smiled.

"Sir, this is Kelley Anderson." Ron said coming to stand beside her. "We found her wondering the hallways. She um…kind of stuck out a bit."

Ron paused and then said, "We thought it best to get her out of the halls before anyone else noticed her. She told us she has no idea what she was doing here or where she came from."

Kelley rounded on Ron, "I never said that at all!" She looked at Dumbledore. Who in person was someone that automatically ordered your respect. Kelley could see that he had been portrayed very well.

She could also see why he would be the only one Voldemort ever feared there was a raw aura of power surrounding him. Kelley could almost feel it.

"What I said was that I had no idea how I had ended up where you found me and that I was confused. I also said you wouldn't believe me if I had told you were I was from."

"I gather you must be quite confused Kelley." Dumbledore said gently. "Yes." Kelley gushed in relief. She smiled as Fawkes nuzzled her neck and left her shoulder to rejoin his master.

"Do you know why I am here headmaster?" She asked.

"I do Kelley. I do indeed. In fact it was I who sent Fawkes to collect you."
