Thanks to all my reviewers! I decided that this story wouldn't make an ounce of sense if left as a one-shot. Besides: I really do like it. I have just been distracted at school since my Finals are coming. So: Chapter 2, here we go.

Disclaimer: I own the Harry Potter series as much as I own Mars- which is not at all.

CHAPTER 2: Stars and Sky

Harry sat quietly on the park swing, gazing up at the bright, diamond-like stars that littered the otherwise dark sky.

He wished that he was one of those stars. Then he could help make the sky even more beautiful, and he would be away from this place...

As he mused in the swing, which swayed slightly in the light breeze, he suddenly noticed a figure shrouded in darkness; watching him with a bright intensity.

In other circumstances, he would have jumped from the swing, and back away fearfully. But somehow, the stranger's presence was... calming. Safe. So instead of running away, he simply watched as the figure stepped into the silvery moonlight.

It was a girl that looked hardly older then 16. She had light brown hair with streaks the color of the sun running threw it. Her lightly tanned skin glowed in the moonlight, as did her sky blue eyes. She was dressed in a long gown matching her eye color perfectly, with silver bracelets glimmering at her wrists, and a silver and blue necklace at her throat. Harry didn't know how he could tell, but there was something not... human... about this girl.

She smiled as she stopped in front of him, and spoke softly. "Are you alright?"

"I-I'm f-fine," Harry stuttered. He watched as she took a seat on the swing next to his, her eyes never leaving him.

After a minute of silence, Harry blurted out, "What- who are you?" He flushed in embarrassment, and looked down again.

She chuckled slightly, and he looked up again. "My name is Skyler. As to what I am, I am a half angel, half elf." To prove the point, she flexed two powerful-looking silver wings, before tucking them away again.

Whatever Harry expected her to say, it was not this. He stared hard at her, noticing that her eyes portrayed amusement. "W-What!"

She stood from her swing, and observed him from her height advantage. "Harry Potter, I have watched you struggle threw your younger years with much sympathy. I helped and assisted when I could, but I dare not approach you until you reached sufficient age. I wish to take you away from here. To live with me among my clan.

"I know this is much to take in, but we must leave now if you wish to go. I know that your family has hurt you both emotionally and physically, and I wish for you to live out your remaining childhood in happiness." She paused to take a deep breath, and continued. "What do you think?"

Harry was in shock. That wasn't real. There was no such thing as magic! But here he was, being given a second chance at happiness by a magical creature that had been his guardian when things got to ruff.

Now that he thought about it, he could remember strange things happening that helped him when he was feeling particularly strong emotions. Should he go with her?

The answer was rather obvious. There was nothing he was going to miss at Privet Drive. And as long as he could see the stars every night, he was going to be happy.

"I would love to go with you, Sky," Harry responded, hugging his rescuer as tightly as he could, afraid that she would disappear if he let go.

She smiled happily; glad that she could finally take proper care of her child. She had declared herself his mother subconsciously, despite him being a human, and she an Elvin angel. "Let go then."

With a slight rustle, her silver-feathered wings extended again, and gave a powerful flap. The wind around them picked up, and a second later, a bright silver portal appeared in midair.

Harry hesitated slightly. He glanced over at Sky, who nodded her encouragement.

"Go on."

Taking a deep breath, he plunged into the liquid-looking surface, Sky close behind, and it shut closed behind them.

WHEW! That was refreshing. I just want you all to know, I did make a sincere effort to watch my spelling since it bothered some of you. I used a dictionary and everything, but even the best of us make mistakes, and if there is any that I didn't catch, sorry.

"Hope you all enjoy! Please R&R!"- So proclaims the Master of Random Disaster!
