Hello dearies! Hope you like this story. It is losely based off a story I read awhile ago. Can't remember the writer to give them the credit.
I own none of the charaters, just the storyline.
Prologue
It was over. The war that had pledged their world since before they were born. They had won in the end but lost so many lives. Life had moved on, the dead buried, the injured healed and the lost found. Many tried to work through it but no one could get over all the lost and damage done to their world. The weak hid away and the strong put on a show. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny sat in silence inside Harry's home, Sirius' childhood home. Harry and Ron's friendship was on a rocky edge and Ginny had desided to let Harry beg for forgiveness even though he had told her that he wasn't ready for that life. Hermione had went to look for her parents and found them dead. She was still morning that loss. They all were off in their own little world when Kreacher appeared, he had become nicer after the war, after Hermione had saved him when Bellatrix had been torturing him. "Mistress Hermione, you have a letter from Hogwarts."
"Thank you Kreacher." Hermione smiled at the old house elf. "You go relax in you room." Harry had given him Regulus' old room, Kreature had been so happy that as a thank you, he got rid of the potrait of Sirius' mother. As the elf left, Harry and Ron looked at the letter that Kreacher had handed Hermione. "It is from McGonagall." Hermione stated as the boys nodded and looked away.
Dear Granger
I am expecting you at Hogward. It is urgent and has to do with the war but I will discuss this in person. Please come to my office at 8 pm. Please do not tell the others what you are doing, it is for you and you alone.
Sircerely,
Minerva McGonagall, Headmistress
"I must leave," Hermione pointed out.
"What? Why? What does she want?" Harry stood from the table.
Hermione shook her head, grabbed her bag, said goodbye and apparated to Hogwarts. Since the rebuilding was still going on, the wards were still up and it was faster to do it this way. She looked around at the broken school and remembered the battle. Not much had been cleaned up but you could tell that it was getting done. She walked into the school and down the halls to the Headmistress' office. She remembered that her new password was hope eternal, the gargoyle stepped aside and she walked inside. In the office was McGonagall and Kingsley. As she entered the office McGonagall motioned her to sit down in one of the chairs infront of the desk. On her desk were pieces of parachment with writing and many designs on it. Hermione gasped as she put it together.
"I thought that this was just a rumor." Hermione wispered.
"No, they are plans for expanding the powers of a Time Turner." McGonagall stated.
"Why am I here?" Hermione wondered.
"We have discussed it and we, against the opinion of the order, are sending someone back in time to change it, for the better." Hermione gasped but McGonagll shook her head. "Yes Miss Granger, I know the rules of a Time Turner but I find myself in a place that I no longer care. I find myself in a place where the words of Sirius fit best. 'Some times what must be done for the good, will be what the good look down on.' Now we are sending this person back a little bit before Halloween when Harry was a baby. We plan on saving alot of lives with this and if possible avoid the second war all together."
"Professor, if someone does this, it is not all that could change. It could change who we are, are friends and the lives that were made because of the war." Hermione stated.
"Miss Granger, fate has desided that things in life are ment to happen. Births, freindships and even some deaths. We realized after the phrophcy that no matter how we tried to change the future, what is meant to happen, will in fact happen. That doesn't mean every thing will be the same as it is now but if friendships, relationships are ment to happen then trust that they will happen."
Hermione nodded but sighed, "But why am I here? What does this have to do with me?"
McGonagall frowned slightly. "Miss Granger."
"You are sending me." Hermione whispered as she figured out. "I am the best person for it. I have time traveled before, I am smart enough to know what to do and when to back off. I won't put my personal opinion in the matter but do what must be done."
"Yes, Hermione. You are our choice.." Kingsley stated.
"I have to do this. I could save so many people. Remus, Tonks, Sirius, Harry's parents, Fred, Severus and Draco." Hermione closed her eyes when she said his name, it still hurt that after eveything he had done, they had lost him. "I wont pass this up. I am going to do it."
"Thank you Ms. Granger, we know that you are sacrificing alot to do this." Kingsley spoke. "The plan is simple. We are sending you back a week before Halloween to explain the future from your first year until the end of the war. To the Potters, Sirius, Remus, Dumbledore and Minerva herself. Now at the end, you will feel yourself being pulled back. You will rejoin the future then and if everything goes to plan a new past will occur and the only ones to remember your visit will be those you talk to."
"I can be ready by tomorrow." Hermione nodded.
"Of course, how about you come around four tomorrow." McGonagall stated.
"Sounds perfect." Hermione stated. She walked out of the office. All of that night she sat down and wrote everything she would tell the past Marauders and Professors. Hermione wrote notes to all of her friends telling them that she needed time away to mourn her parents. She couldn't say goodbye to all of them, so the next morning she left before everyone got up and went to see George. She had spent a lot of time with him after the war, he had become one of her closest friends. After saying goodbye to him and Charlie, who had moved in with him, she went to visit Draco and Dobby. She smiled at the memory of Draco first visiting here, he made them all promise that if he died that he would be buried right beside his house elf. She was sad that he was died but she made a promise to try and change that too. She visited Harry and Teddy, she sqeesed them so tight that she didn't want to let go.
She appareted back to Hogwarts and walked into McGonagall's office, she saw her old Professor sitting at her desk holding a letter. "This letter will prove to me and Dumbledore that you are telling the truth. Do not lose it, Miss Granger." Hermione nodded and placed the letter in bag as she had place everything else that she owned. She still hadn't told anyone that she lost her home and carried everything she owned in her charmed purse. "Once you convince us, the others will follow. Now go straight to Dumbledore, if I remember correctly, he is in a phase of suger pops." Hermione smiled, hugged her old Professor as she took the enhanced Time Turner, placed it over her head and spun the little hourglass. Once again she felt the floor drop out from under her.
