So... here's chapter five already! I only started this story four days ago. Since no new people reviewed, I'll give a HUGE chocolate chip cookie to both I-sold-my-soul-for-a-cookie and Escape my reality who both reviewed chapter four. R&R! Seriously, your reviews give me motivation to write more. :D

Answer to both Reviews: Yeah, he is super bored. He yelled at me when we had a conversation in my head about it. I didn't know he could yell. But then I pointed out to him that he waits for Saya to wake up for 30 years and he doesn't really talk to anybody that whole time. Just to say, I won that argument.

Secret Rose

Chapter Five

A Magical Start

Saya heard someone calling her name.

"Saya… Saya! You better wake up or you'll be late for breakfast." came a voice that sounded like Hermione.

"Mmm… breakfast." came the reply from the oriental girl who heard her stomach growl and felt the color rush to her cheeks.

Hermione giggled a little, 'Well, it sounds like you're hungry. Harry, Ron, Haji, and I will be waiting in the common room. You better hurry!" she yelled, already out the door.

Saya sighed and got up. She rummaged through her trunk and found some clean robes and pink lip gloss. She got dressed, brushed her hair and put on some lip gloss. She headed downstairs and saw them all waiting for her.

Hermione smiled, "Nice lip gloss."

"Thanks. If you want, you can have some." she said, handing the lip gloss to Hermione.

Soon enough, Hermione was all glossy and they were heading to the Great Hall. They sat down and Professor McGonagall was hurrying over to them, schedules in hand.

"Here's yours Potter. Weasley, Otonashi, Hayashi, Granger." she nodded at them and then walked off.

It seemed like they all had the same schedules. Today they had double Potions, Transfiguration, Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, and Defense Against the Dark Arts (DADA).

They all weren't hungry so they headed down to the dungeons for Potions. They found that they were one of the first there. After a couple minutes, more students began pouring into the room. They all saw Malfoy getting ready to walk over to Saya, but then spotted Haji and thought it a better idea not to.

"Quiet." came a voice from the front of the classroom. Standing there was a man with greasy black hair, a hooked nose, and cold eyes.

"So… that's Professor Snape." Saya said quietly to herself.

"I thought I said no talking. It seems that one of our new transfers is already insisting on disobeying me. You, girl, stand up."

Saya stood up, not liking where this was headed. "Yes sir?" she asked, trying to sound as polite as possible.

"If you're so keen on talking, why don't you tell me where you would find a bezoar and what it's purposes are." he said with a small smirk.

Saya had actually remembered reading this in some of the books Hermione had let her and Haji borrow. "I think that a bezoar can treat most poisons and you can find it in the stomach of a goat."

"You think?"

"I could be wrong, but I think that's the answer you're looking for."

'So… this girl knows her stuff and isn't an insufferable know-it-all like Granger is…' Snape thought and then said. "You are correct. Ten points to Gryffindor."

The Gryffindors looked shocked while the Slytherins looked outraged. The Slytherins were starting to voice their outrage when Snape shot them something of a death glare. This quieted everyone down.

Snape talked for a little while and told them to start on a potion called the Draught of Peace, something they could find on page 74 in their books.

The greasy professor walked around and inspected each cauldron. He made fun of Ron's and Harry's, didn't say anything to Hermione, and made Neville go to the hospital wing when his exploded. He then walked over to Saya's and Haji's potion.

"Hmm… this is a perfect potion. Well done." he said and then announced, "Alright, everyone's time is up. Take a flask of your potion up to my desk and clean everything up.

Saya walked out of the dungeons feeling accomplished. While on their way to Transfiguration, the Golden Trio talked about how Snape hated Gryffindors.

They found themselves in the Transfiguration classroom before they knew it. They sat towards the front of the class. Harry sat next to Ron, Neville with Hermione, and Saya and Haji. Saya noticed that Haji was still getting a lot of weird looks because of what he was carrying.

Soon, all of the seats were filled and Professor McGonagall came in. "Everyone, quiet down. Mr. Roberts, if you would please pay attention." Everyone turned to look at her and she continued. "Good, now today, we will be working on human transfiguration. All that we will be doing is trying to change eye color today."

Transfiguration was actually pretty fun and soon enough everyone was leaving the classroom. The only ones that didn't have homework that day were Hermione, Saya, and Haji, as they were the only ones that could successfully perform the spell.

In Herbology, they talked about a plant called mimbulus mimbletonia. Neville seemed super excited about it though the transfers had no idea why. In Care of Magical Creatures, Hagrid talked about creatures called kappas that hide in the water, waiting for their next unsuspecting victims. Soon enough, it was time for the last class of the day, Defense Against the Dark Arts.

"You know, I just realized, I don't think McGonagall ever announced who the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was." Hermione said thoughtfully.

"You're right. And I don't remember seeing anyone knew at the staff table. I don't think that they came to dinner at all." Ron added.

"Well, we'll just have to find out who it is. Hopefully it's someone who knows what their doing, unlike that terrible Umbridge woman." Hermione said, and when she said Umbridge, the Golden Trio shuddered.

Saya passed it off and opened up the door to the classroom. It seemed like they were the first ones there. They all entered the room and sat down towards the front of the class, eager to know who the teacher was.

"Well, look who we have here." came a voice.

All five teenagers looked up to see a man with a scraggly beard and sandy brown hair. He had very kind and, in a way, wise eyes. Harry's, Ron's, and Hermione's all dropped.

"Lupin!" they all exclaimed.

The man known as Lupin chuckled, "I could understand why you three are surprised. I was surprised as well when Minerva asked me to teach again. She said that I was the most popular with the students in years and that I "knew my stuff"."

"Um… I'm kinda lost here." Saya said.

"Oh, right, sorry. This is Remus Lupin. He taught this class in our third year." Hermione said and Harry added, "The best year that we had in this class."

"Oh, okay. It's nice to meet you. My name is Saya and this is Haji." Saya smiled.

"It's nice to meet you. It's not often that we get transfers into Hogwarts."

DADA was pretty normal. All they did was review some stuff from the years before. Now, that all the classes were over, the teenagers headed to the Gryffindor common room to relax and work on some homework. They surprisingly didn't have very much. They had a drawing for Hagrid, Harry and Ron had to practice, and they had a six inch essay due in two days for Herbology on the odd plant they had discussed.

Suddenly, Saya remembered something, "Um… Haji and I have to go to the hospital wing for something. We'll be back in a little bit."

The other three looked confused. "Why? What for?"

"Oh, it's nothing. We were in an accident awhile back and they like to check up on us a couple times a week. Don't worry about it." Saya quickly lied. Harry, Ron, and Hermione weren't convinced.

The two transfers excused themselves and headed down to the hospital wing. The three they left behind exchanged looks.

"You know, I hate to say this, but they seem kind of suspicious. I mean, first that boggart incident and now this. Something's up." Ron said.

"I think you're right. I say that we go and find out." Harry replied.

"But how? It's not like we can just go up to them and say, 'we think you're suspicious and that you lied, what are you hiding?'." Hermione said.

"Well, that's why there's the invisibility cloak. I'll go up and grab it and meet you guys back down here."

Soon enough, the three teenagers were hidden under the invisibility cloak and standing in front of the doors to the hospital wing which, luckily enough, were cracked a little bit.

The trio opened the door a little bit and slid in. There, they saw Saya laying in a hospital bed hooked up to a machine that had a bag of blood.

"Blood transfusion." Hermione whispered. Both Harry, and surprisingly Ron, knew what she was talking about.

The invisible teens walked closer to the bed and heard Haji talking to Madam Pomfrey. "I'm a bit worried, it seems that Saya's long sleep is getting closer."

"Yes, I see what you mean. I'll keep an eye on her. Especially because of your current…situation here. The closer it comes, the more time it takes for her to heal. Which is still very short compared to humans."

Haji nodded and Saya talked, "I still have to get Diva before that comes…"

Madam Pomfrey spoke, "Yes well, don't worry about that now. It seems that you're all done. You're free to go back up to Gryffindor tower."

The eavesdropping teens took that as their time to leave. They left to the common room and made it there just a minute before the other two arrived.

"Hey. We're a bit tired so we're going to go to bed. Goodnight." Saya waved.

"Night." came the reply and the trio waited until they were sure the others couldn't hear them and began to talk.

"What was up with that? I mean, she shouldn't have to get transfusions for something that happened awhile back." Ron said.

"Yeah, and what were they talking about when they said a "long sleep"?" asked Hermione.

"I don't know, but did you hear what Madam Pomfrey said? She said that Saya healed faster compared to humans. What did she mean, because Saya has to be human. I don't see what she could be other wise. Wait, do you think that maybe she's a vampire?"

"I could see you thinking that Ronald, but I don't think that she is. Some of the students would have gone missing already and she never left the burrow."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Harry, are you going to say anything?"

"I was thinking… remember what she said? She said that she still had to get Diva. Remember what happened with that boggart? Before she passed out, she called that girl Diva."

"Wait, I thought that was Saya." Ron said.

"No, her eyes were a completely different color and her hair was a lot longer. The boggart girl was a lot paler too."

"Yeah. And who were those two boys on the ground? One looked like he was our age and the other looked like he was twelve or thirteen."

"I don't know. But what I do know is that there is something going on. And we're going to get to the bottom of it." Hermione said, and they all headed off to bed.

"So, it seems like he was right. Saya is at that magic school." came a female voice.

"Yes, we think she was sent there to protect those students from chiropterans." said a man with blonde hair.

A smile danced across her pale face. "Hmm… I think we might just have to send somebody to visit her. After all, I have to make sure that my big sister doesn't forget about me…"
