CHAPTER 1
"Hedwig are you sure that this is a good idea?" A girl with red hair and green eyes asks a girl with honey-golden eyes and silver hair.
"Of course Lily." Hedwig says. Soon four boys walk up to the two girls that were resting under a tree. Lily rounds on one of the boys.
"James! This has you written all over it!" Lily accuses.
"What?" James asks confused.
"Lily this has nothing to do with James if anything him being an animagus has to deal with me since I told them about it and showed them the spell." Hedwig says shocking her friend. She turns to one of the other boys.
"Remus please talk her out of it." Lily begs.
"I have tried Lily but it's no use. She is so set on it." Remus says.
"Fine! Whatever!" Lily says throwing her hands up in defeat.
"Hey what about us?" Sirius asks.
"What about you ?" Lily asks.
"Aren't you going to ask us about our opinion?" Sirius asks.
"No because you would only encourage her and I know that she is frightening to Peter." Lily said looking at Peter who was hiding behind Remus to escape Hedwig's glare.
"Come on Lily you should be like all of us. Even Hedwig is going to do it, although I am surprised she wasn't the first one out of us since she did find the spell." James says.
"No thanks." Lily says.
"Fine. I am going to change now." Hedwig says focusing on her form. They watch as she glows silver then a fairly blinding light appears. It vanishes a minute later and they see in Hedwig's place a snowy owl.
"Hey it looked like it worked. Now try changing back." Sirius says. They watch as the air ripples around the owl and the owl change into a girl.
"Haha yes! Success!" Hedwig cheers followed by James, Sirius and Remus.
"Nicely done Hedwig." Remus says.
"Thanks Remus." Hedwig says before turning to Peter who lets out a little yelp. "Now Peter you need to be careful of me now since I am a bird of prey now and you are a rat. You know what that means right?" Hedwig asks.
"Y-Yes I-I understand H-Hedwig." Peter stumbles.
"Good, now I am going to practice with my form some more." Hedwig says.
"Altight. We will see you at dinner." Remus says as the others head back to the castle.
"Alright. See you later." Hedwig says before changing back to an owl and trying to learn how to fly using wings. She figures it out and spends the day flying around the castle of Hogwarts and seeing fellow classmates in classrooms and throughout the school. She sees a tree and lands in it to rest. She has been sitting in the tree for an hour when she hears someone cast a spell and she feels the effects on her thus alerting her that it was directed at her. She flies away from whoever casted the spell.
'The only one who can break the spell will be James's and Lily's son.' The person thinks. 'With her help he should be able to save the magical world.' And with that the figure vanishes
'What? Why can't I change back?' Was Hedwig's thought. She tried everything to change back but couldn't. She then starts to panic about not being able to change back. Soon nightfall happens and she notices a rustling in the bushes. She flies into the tree waiting to see what happens. She watches as Lily, James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter walk out. She flies down to them.
"Hedwig?" Lily asks and receives a nod from the owl.
"Why are you still an owl and you missed dinner." James says. Hedwig just looks at him. Remus stares at her then his eyes widen a bit.
"Hedwig can you change back?" Remus asks. Hedwig shakes her head earning a gasp from Lily.
"What? What's wrong?" James asks. Hedwig uses her wings and makes a shrugging shoulders motion.
"Should we go to McGonagall?" James asks. Hedwig nods her head.
"Okay let's go see Professor McGonagall." Lily says and the group head back to the castle. They arrive at the transfiguration room where Professor McGonagall is still at her desk. She looks up to see who is entering her classroom and is surprised to see five of her best students and a owl.
"Hello Professor. We have a problem." Lily says.
"Is it about why Hedwig is gone?" McGonagall asks.
"Yes Professor. We know why she is missing." Remus says.
"Really where is she?" McGonagall asks and in answer she sees the five all look at the snowy white owl. McGonagall's eyes widen with realization. "Is this owl Hedwig?"
"Yes Professor but she doesn't know why she can't change back." Lily says.
"Really? That is unusual to happen." McGonagall says drawing her wand and casting a diagnostic spell. She casts it again as her eyes keep widening. "It seems someone has cast a spell onto Hedwig where she is now stuck as an owl." McGonagall says shocking the students. "Let me Get Professor Dumbledore and see if he can do anything." And with that she leaves and returns with Dumbledore.
"What seems to be the trouble?" He asks.
"Professor it seems someone cast a spell onto Hedwig to keep her as an owl." Lily says.
Dumbledore is a little shocked at hearing this and draws his wand and casts a diagnostic spell as well. He spends five minutes trying to counter the spell. The others can tell it is taking Dumbledore some power to try to fix whatever happened if they couldn't tell by the sweat gathering on his head. He stops five minutes later and gives a sad sigh.
"I am sorry my dear, but I can't undo the spell. Whoever casted it was very powerful and it appears to be a spell unheard of, so I am sorry to say that you are stuck as an owl." Dumbledore says and everyone gasps at this revelation.
"What?" Lily asks with tears in her eyes for her best friend.
"Who would want to do this?" McGonagall asks.
"I do not know." Dumbledore says. Soon they are interrupted by the sound of an owl flying through the open window and flies up to the group and drops an envelope and flies out the window. Lily picks up the envelope and sees it is not addressed to anyone in particular so she opens it and reads aloud.
As you have found that Hedwig is now stuck as an owl. No spell can change her back, but the spell can be broken. At this everyone gathers closer. The spell will be removed by only one person, but that person has yet to exist and won't exist for some time. All their eyes widen at this.
"So that is why this spell is powerful, it was casted by someone who travelled to the past from a future point in time." Dumbledore says shocked at this.
"I wonder who did this." Sirius asks.
"Continue reading Lily there is more." Remus says.
Hedwig will know when the person to change her back has come as she will feel a pull to him. She will help him through his times of need. The two will become great and restore magical Britain back to what it was before. Hedwig will not age but she will de-age to the same age as the person who will be able to set her free. To break the spell Hedwig will have to kiss the person while as an owl.
They are all shocked and look at Hedwig trying to figure out what she is thinking.
'What I am stuck like this for who knows long till one person can undo this.' Hedwig thinks. She starts to chirp angrily which then dies down and they notice tears coming from her golden eyes. Lily walks over and picks up her friend and hugs her and cries with her.
