Chapter One
Song: It's Time by Imagine Dragons
Hermione Jean Weasley looked at her reflection in the mirror. She took in her still frizzy white hair, cropped closer to her head. Her clouded brown eyes. The wrinkles, laugh lines, and crows feet that had accumulated over her 87 years on Earth. She flinched at the thought.
I look like my mother she thought. This isn't me. It seems like yesterday I was running around with Ron and Harry.
Hermione glanced over at her empty bed. She would be sleeping alone tonight. Ronald had been dead for nearly twenty years now. She slipped out of her slippers and crawled into bed. As she turned over to turn her lamp off for even the simplest spells alluded her now. Before she clicked the switch her eye caught the picture of her, Harry, and the Weasleys during her sixth year. Her eyes skimmed over everyone's sadly smiling faces and lingered on Fred's laughing face. He looked truly happy.
He was the first to go.
Hermione clicked the light off and touched her Time Turner. She often wondered would happen if she just went back and never came back. She sighed.
His laugh.
She fingered the knob of the Time Turner.
His eyes.
She slowly began turning it. Alive. Alive. Alive.
The Time Turner was now spinning rapidly but Hermione was slowly losing consciousness.
Her last thought was It's Time. My time.
