James and Sirius rummaged around Lily's room, looking for something in
particular.
"It's gotta be here somewhere!" Sirius said shifting through the contents on her dresser.
"Ah ha," James said triumphantly.
"What?" You found it?" Sirius asked rushing over to his friend.
"No, I found her underwear!" he smiled, Sirius shook his head.
"Come on mate, find the time-turner."
"All right, all right," James said as he pocketed a pair of panties and a bra. Black and lacy, he smiled at the thought of her in them. The door opened and Remus came in silently.
"It wasn't in her bag," he whispered.
"Speak up, there's an earmuff charm on her," Sirius said jerking his head toward the sleeping form of Lily Evans.
"Nice touch Black," Remus replied closing the door.
"Thanks now look around."
The marauders, minus one, searched her room high and low whit no sign of that bloody time-turner. They were about to give up and help Peter search the Prefects bathroom, when James found it, in the most obvious place to look. Right around her neck.
"I am a genius!" James said swinging the minuet hourglass in small circles. Remus and Sirius walked over where Lily lay, red hair fanned out over her pillows.
"Now we can go back in time, get Snape, make sure we don't get caught again, and get out of getting detention," Sirius said smiling. Remus picked up Lily's head, slipping his hand through the chain to brace her neck. James and Sirius gripped the chain on either side, poising to slip it off of her neck.
As the three marauders discussed pranking tactics for getting Snape none of them noticed that the tiny hourglass came to a stop. What got their attention was the sensation of being pulled forward through time.
Years later, they appeared in what looked like Hogwarts, where the Gryffindor Head Girl's room should have been. They were now in a hallway surrounded by suits of armor. They lay on the cool stone floor in a heap of bodies. It only took Lily a moment to start screaming, the earmuff charm had worn off.
"I think we might have done something wrong," Sirius said as he held up the broken time-turner, which was no longer around Lily's neck, but smashed on the floor, the minuscule grains of sand and chards of glass wedged in the crevices of the stone flooring. Sirius held it up by the faded gold chain; he spun the chain making what was left of the hourglass charm circle, which made the glass catch the light of the lit torches in the corridor.
"Something very wrong indeed," James echoed casting his eyes around the slightly familiar hallway.
