I don't own Harry Potter or anything.

A 16 year old Harry Potter was asleep in his bed in the Gryffindore boys dorm when the sound of Proffessor Dumbledore voice was heard throughout the castle "All students, please come to the main hall within the next 30 minutes but do not bring any books or supplies with you. Classes have been cancelled for the day. All visiting guest are also requested to come to the main hall."

Rubbing his eyes Harry reached for his glasses and thought "What's going on now." as he slipped on his glasses and sat up. Looking around he saw his room mates, Dean Thomas, Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottem, and Seamus Finnigan who also looked to be trying to wake up and figure out what was going on.

Harry frowned as he looked at Ron who due to jelousy had caused a rift in thier friendship and thought "Which is normal. Everytime something comes up he get's jelous."

After Grabbing his cloths and getting dressed Harry made it down to the Gryffindore common room and saw other house members up and getting ready to leave while looking confused but avoiding him.

Frowning to himself Harry thought "They won't look at me. Bloody Gits, the lot of them." as he walked out of his dorm.

When Harry got to the main hall he saw it was quickly filling up and Harry took a seat at the end of the table near the back of the hall, far from where he usually sat in the middle.

A brown hair Gryffindor witch by the name of Hermione Jean Granger who was sitting in the middle of the table saw this and frowned as she bit her lip before she got up and walked down to the end of the table where Harry was and asked "Why are you sitting down here Harry." in a kind voice.

Harry sighed and spoke softly "I don't feel like being the center of attention right now Jean. With Cedric being murder last week and the Ministry covering it up and calling me a traumatically deranged individual everyone is acting like I don't exist or that I will turn around and kill them."

Hermione sighed and sat down across from him and said "Not everyone Harry. I'm here and I believe you." as she grabbed his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

Harry smiled softly a small smile "You don't know how much that means to me right now Jean."

Hermione gave him a small smile also and said "You only call me that when we are alone and your really worried about something...I don't think Ron even knows my middle name...Your still upset with him, aren't you. I saw you wince when I said his name."

Harry sighed and nods and Hermione asked "Has he tried to talk to you."

Harry bit his lip and said "We had made up some but now with this happening he's become a git again and avoiding me."

Up at the staff table Professor Dumbledore stood up and said "May I have everyone's attention...Thank you all for coming. I know many of you are curious about why you are here and I am sure many of our visitors who were preparing to leave later today are also wondering why I have asked them to come...To answer that question I would like to introduce you to a guest who requested this meeting. You may come in now."

The great hall doors that had been closed when Dumbledore stood up, opened and a figure walked into the hall. Many eyes narrowed as they saw a man with grey hair and blue eyes who looked to be even older then Dumbledore was walking with a cane toward the teachers table.

The man stopped in front of the staff table and Dumbledore said "Allow me to introduce you to our guest. He is the head of the Department of Mysteries . His real name is unknown to all but for his visit we will be refering to him as Mr. Grime. Mr. Grime, would you care to tell everyone why you are here."

Grime turned to look at the 4 tables of the great hall and said "Last week an event happened that I am sure you all are familiar with however because of several different parties the entire truth of what happened is unknown. Due to the statements of Harry Potter that the man known to many as Voldemort having return when he was presumed to have been dead all these years as well as Minister Fudge claiming Mr. Potters mental state is not stable due to the traumatic events. This has caused a great deal of unrest with not only humans but also other magical creatures." as he shifted his weight from one leg to the other.

Grime said "Now the reason I am here is nearly everyone of you have at least part of the information we need to figure out the real truth so we will be interviewing you in groups of two and teaching you to give pensive memories that will allow us to see actually what happened and not what people think happened. I'm sorry for any difficulties this has caused but the sooner we finish the sooner you can continue with your normal lives...Now Mr. Potter, Ms. Granger, if you would both follow me we can lead you to another room so we can get started. I've started with you Mr. Potter as your are the one who seem to be the center of this situation and seeing your memories of what happened will help us know what to ask others. Ms. Granger, I am told you are really close friends with Mr. Potter so I figure that we can have you come to help make this as easy for you both. Now please get up and follow me." causing everyone in the hall to turn to look at Harry and Hermione who quickly let go of each others hands.

Mr. Grime walked toward them and walked out the door.
Both teens quickly got up and began to follow him out of the great hall. Once the doors were closed behind them Mr. Grime stopped and turned to look at both Harry and Hermione and Grime said "Listen both of you. It's me, Moony, Padfoot is currently at the Shrieking shack waiting on you both."

Both teens eyes widen and Harry quickly said "What do you mean. How can we be sure your who you say you are."

The now identified Remus Lupin also called Moony said "You hear your parents die and Voldemort laughing when your near a dementor. Your patronus is a stag named Prongs which was your father's animagis form and name. I'm currently under Polyjuice of the director of the hall of mysteries who owed me a huge favor I called in to help. Now hurry and meet Padfoot while I try and by you as much time as I can. Avoid everyone you can, especially the authorities. Now go and be careful...good luck, both of you." as he quickly turned and started to run away.

Hermione started to open her mouth when Harry said "No Hermione. I don't know what's going on but if Moony and Sirius are here trying to warn us to stay away from the authorities then something must be going on. I think we should grab my cloak and then go meet Padfoot."

Hermione frowned and said "Fine. Let's go." as both teens quickly began to leave.

10 minutes later Hermione and Harry climbed into the Shrieking Shack and a voice both teens recognised said "I'm in here where we met last time. Hurry, there isn't much time."

As the teens walked into the room they saw Sirius and Harry quickly opened his mouth when Sirius turned around with his wand out and fired a stunning spell at Harry before turning to Hermione who was frozen and did the same to her causing both teens to be knocked out.

When Harry began to awake he found himself tied to a chair sitting in what looked like a huge library. Beside him in another chair sat the passed out form of Hermione. Harry not seeing anyone else whispered "Hermione...Hermione, wake up...can you hear me, wake up." as he tried to get his hands and feet out of thier restraints but couldn't as he continued calling to her.

Hermione slowly opened her eyes looking confused and said in a confused voice "Harry...what's going on."

Before Harry could say anything a female voice both teens recognised said "You were brought here to learn some information that you both need if you are going to survive." as Professor Minerva Mcgonagall stepped out of the shadows and walked in front of both teens.

Hermione said in an unsure voice "Professor..."

Minerva held up her hand and said "I'm not your professor right now so please just call me Minnie and I'm sorry about the restraints as well as the deception that brought you here but the information you are about to hear is going to be very shocking and you would most likely try to deny it or run away before you hear it all...Now I know the first bit of information I am about to tell you will shock you both, especially you Harry but before you get angry you should listen to everything I have to say. Alright."

Harry frowned and said "Alright Minnie."

Minerva smiled a small smile and said "First is I used a time turner to come back in time in order to do this. Since I know you both are aware of them then I won't have to answer any questions about them but the one I used allows a person to go back years instead of hours. Are you both with me so far."

Both teens nod and Hermione said "But..."

Minerva said "Don't worry about a paradox. The one I used isn't like the one you used. Instead of taking taking an entire person back in time, it takes thier memories, magic, and soul back in time and put thems in the body of thier younger self meaning there is only one of me right now but it comes at a price which is why it's hardly ever used. The time I lived before I came back isn't given back to me."

Hermione relaxed some but both teens frowned hearing the cost of the time turner and Minerva took a deep breath and continued "Now the future I came from is a very dark one. A lot of good people died. Sirius, Remus, Severus, and Dumbledore to name a few."

Both teens gasped at each name and froze when they heard each one.

Minerva said "Shocking, I know...We eventually won the war against Voldemort but there were a lot of casualties. Entire families were destroyed and hundreds of children orphaned...and just like the last war there were people who did everything they could to gain power...Unfortinately both of you were victims of this. Someone had drugged you both with a love potion in order to turn you Hermione into a sex slave and servant basically and you Harry in order to get your fame and fortune."

Both teens sat there shocked and Harry asked in a restrained voice "Who...Who drugged us."

Minerva bit her lip and said "I'm not going to tell you because hopefully me coming back in time like I did will change that future and those people won't do it again...Anyways, as I was saying, the Ministry of Magic was forced to start giving manditory blood test to every witch or wizard in order to figure out who was actually left alive and in which families...when they did this they discovered something about Harry. Something that caused me to break into the hall of Mysteries and steal a time turner in order to come back in time and get Remus and Sirius to kidnap you for me."

Harry asked in an unsure voice "What did it discover."

Minerva closed her eyes and said "I know that you are aware that Tom Riddle also known as Voldemort going to Hogwarts in the 1940's...I was a student there at the time as well...Tom was an amazing person back then...or he appeared to be. So much so that many girls fancied him including me...I fancied him enough that I tried to use a love potion on him to make him fall in love with me."

Both teens eyes widen and Harry said in a hiss "You loved that bastard."

Minerva bit her lip and said "I was a stupid girl with a stupid school girl crush. Think about the crush Hermione here had with Lockheart. Basically it was the same thing."

Hermione blushed and said "Please don't remind me about that bastard."

Minerva said "Unfortinately in my case Tom tested everything he ate or drank and when he found the love potion in the candy I sent him he threatened me with either basically becoming his slave or being arrested since using a love potion is illegal in most cases...I was so scared of being sent to Azkaban or even some of the other possibilities so I agreed to become his slave...I won't go into details of all the things he did to me as his slave but what I will tell you is in the 1960 I was pregnant with my first and only child that Tom was the father of...Fearing for my child's safety more then my own I fled into the muggle world from Tom while still pregnant and when I went to give birth at a muggle hospital I gave birth to a daughter...unfortinately the hospital was attacked by death eater's while I was there and until the blood test on you came out Harry I had believed that my daughter had died in the hospital. My daughter was your mother Lily."

Both teens paled and Harry gasped and said "Then...then...the reason Tom and I are so alike is..."

Minerva said "Is because he's your grandfather...I now understand how you lived the night he killed your parents. When I was pregnant with Lily, Tom made a magical vow that he would protect her. The night he killed her not knowing that she was his daughter his own magical vow attacked him saving your life."

Hermione seeing the shocked look on Harry's face bit her lip a moment and said "Your still Harry. I don't care who your related to Harry or whose blood flows through your veins. Your still Harry to me, your the man who was my first friend and is my best friend, your still the same man who saved my life several times, your still the man I..."

Harry turned hearing Hermione's voice and asked "Stil the man you what." in a quite but still shocked voice.

Hermione bit her lip and looked Harry in the eyes and said "Still the man I find myself falling in love with...the man I hoped to make jelous at the Yule ball to see that I'm not just one of the guys and see me as a woman...a woman I hoped you would fall in love with." as she lowered her eyes saying the last part quitely.

Harry was frozen in place hearing Hermione confession and his shock slowly melted away and said "I...I've noticed you for a while Jean...In fact...I noticed you and liked you also since the day we met on the train all those years ago...when you fixed my broken glasses was the first time you took my breath away in amazement and you've been doing it every day since then...I...I just was afraid to say anything because I thought that you wouldn't like me as more then a friend and I didn't want to lose you." as he lowered his head also.

Minerva sniffed and said "I'm happy that you both have admitted that you love each other and I hope that in the future that you both find happiness together...but that isn't why I am here...OK, maybe it was a bonus for me but it's not the main reason I'm here. Harry...Dumbledore is keeping a secret from you. The secret is there is a prophecy about you and Voldemort. It says that The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies."

Hermione frowned and said "But what does a stupid prophecy have to do with anything. What does it have to do with Harry. Prophecy are all just a bunch of crap." while Harry looked confused but also in thought.

Minerva sighed and said "And usually they are but as much as I hate it this one is a real one. As for what this has to do with Harry...Harry was born on July 31, born as the seventh month dies. Voldemort had every child born in the last week of July killed except for two. Harry and Neville...the part about marking him as an equal relates to Harry's scar...but his scar is more then a scar."

Harry asked "What do you mean." in a shocked tone.

Minerva said "Remember the diary that tried to take over Ginny...Well that diary is called a Horcrux. I only know this because you told me in the future. Tom has a total of 7 of them from what you both told me in the future. You destroyed one when you destroyed the diary...besides that one, I only know one other for sure...the one inside your scar Harry."

Both teens eyes widen and Hermione asked "His scar." as she turned her head to look at Harry scar.

Minerva nods and said "Dumbledore knows what it is and has known all these years. He's spent all these years looking for a way to destroy the Horcrux in your scar without killing you Harry. So far he hasn't found one and until he died nobody but him and Voldemort knew about it. He fears the only way to destroy it is for you to die which is why he hasn't told you about it. He didn't want you living your life filled with the idea you had to die a martyre to save everyone or that your life wasn't worth something. He keeps hoping there is a way to destroy it without you dying and keeps looking."

Hermione said "Which there is...right. That's how we won and Voldemort died and Harry lived...right." saying the last in a worried tone.

Minerva bit her lip and said "I...I honestly don't know how Harry did it...We all saw Harry's dead body in Hagrid's arms the day of the final battle and he was dead...but something happened and somehow he came back to life and began to attack Tom...I'm sorry I can't tell you anything else about how he did it or what exactly happen. The future Harry never told anyone what happened or how he came back to life."

Silence filled the room for several minutes as they heard this and Minverva said "For all the good Albus did in his life, he did have one flaw, a flaw that Harry has also. He believes that he has to do everything himself. He never told anyone about the Horcrux and searched by himself for a way to destroy them...I don't know if it will work but a goblin once told me that it was possible for a curse breaker to destroy a Horcrux without destroying the container. That is part of the reason why I came back in time."

Harry looked at her and asked "You came back to ask me to have the goblins look at this scar and see if they can destroy it without killing me."

Minerva said "Partially...I don't want to see you die because you are my grandson...but I don't know how you feel about having me as your grandmother or who your grandfather is...I've told you both that you lose the time that you already lived by going back in time like I did. I don't have very much time left to live so I won't be going back with you both when you go."

Both teens eyes widen again and Hermione asked quickly "What do you mean go." and Harry nods also.

Minerva smiled sadly and said "I told you both that a lot of good people died. As things are right now, even with the info I gave you there won't be anything you can do because Minister Fudge is going to do everything he can to discredit Harry and Dumbledore and that includes a woman named Umbridge. She sends dementors to Harry's home to try and kill him."

Both teen's screamed "WHAT."

Minerva nods and said "Yes, this summer you would be attacked by dementors along with your cousin Dudley. You save both yourselves with a patronus but then get arrested and put on trail for underage magic. They tried to railroad you by tricking Dumbledore about the time and location of the trial and a few other tricks. Luckily Dumbledore arrived in time to stop it but then they send a Umbridge to Hogwarts as the high inquisitor and she uses torture devices on Harry and gives Malfoy and the other junior death eaters power as her assistant's...right now there is nothing you can do because your going to be to busy trying to stay alive...besides, by going back you can change things, possibly getting Sirius cleared and saving Cedric to name a few."

Both teens frowned and glanced at each other and Harry asked "How far back are we going and what do you want us to do exactly."

Minerva said "I'm sending you both back to the summer before you started your first year at Hogwarts. I knew that Hermione would do everything in her power to help you if she knew the truth because through everything that has happened and is to come she has stood by your side which is why I am so happy that you both admitted you like each other. If the goblins can't find a way to destroy it without killing you then she might be able to...I want you to speak with them when you first meet them Harry. Ask them to do an inheritance test. It's a small ritual where you give a few drops of blood in ritual bowl. Do not leave there without asking for it Harry, please."

Harry nods and Minerva said "Good, now besides that I want you to ask for a set of family library rings."

Both teens looked confused and Harry asked "What's a family library ring."

Minerva smiled and said "It's a gold ring with runes on it and a jewel. It is usually given to the Lord and Lady of a house but anyone could ask for it if they had the right amount of gold. You don't have enough but Harry does. Basically the goblins have a vault set up that can only be entered by touching the jewel with your wand and it will summon you inside the vault. You can store anything inside it, gold, books, weapons...even people. The only trouble with it is if you take the ring off and someone else puts it on they can enter your vault that way which is why it is usually given to the Lord and Lady of a family and they ask for the family security runes which makes it only someone of thier family can enter it...know this though, if you get that security rune on the rings Harry and give it to Hermione and she put's it on, she will from that moment on be your wife."

Both teens began to blush and Minerva giggled causing both teens to turn and look at her and she said "Sorry, it's just everytime one of you have a reaction you both do it. You both blush, you both go wide eyed, and so many other things that I think if Mr. Weasley hadn't of been there causing trouble or being jelous you both would already have been together...aw, your both blushing again...anyways, I am asking you to get the library ring because you both can use it to get away from prying eyes and ears so you can both talk to each other privately. Oh, that reminds me Harry, when you ask for the library, ask for the complete package. That way the vault will have a restroom, bedroom, book shelves along with several books that will come in handy that you can only get from the goblins, furniture and even a fireplace. There are some witches and wizard that actually live in these vaults and only leave to get food or visit people. Some families hid durring the last war in these vaults...of course most couldn't because of the price but in your case it would be worth it."

Hermione bit her lip and said "Your wanting us to get this so that way if things go bad that we could hide also...don't you."

Minerva smiled sadly and said "You really are the brightest witch ever Hermione. Yes, I don't know if Harry wants me as his grandmother and when you both go back nobody will know that I am besides you both. It will be your choice on what to do. Harry always complained that people were using him and never let him control his own life. I'm giving him the choice he always felt was never his own."

Harry said "But aren't you controlling me now."

Minerva said "Harry...I'm going to tell you something that will change your life forever. Everyone is controlled by someone. I'm controlled by my responsibilities and duties, you are both controlled by the teachers, your friends, family, and enemies. In some way everyone is controlled. The difference between being controlled is you have the right to chose how much someone controls you by making a choice. That is why I don't believe in prophecy. The prophecy about you is true because your parents and others let themselves be controlled to fulfill it. Take for example you tell someone that it's alright that they are going to break a cup in thier hands before they do it. The person becomes nervous from hearing that and tries to make sure it doesn't happen causing thier hands to sweat and them to loose control of the cup and bam, they fulfilled a prophecy because they let themselves be controlled. If the person hadn't of became nervous over what they heard then they wouldn't have broke the cup. Do you understand."

Both teens got looks of thought on thier faces and Minerva said "Well that is all I have to say. You will both be going back to the summer before you started to Hogwarts. The choice is yours on what to do. If you worried about being drugged or poisoned then learn to detect them from books or ask someone who knows. The choice is yours." as she pulled out a long gold chain that had a pocket watch on it and wrapped the chain around both teens heads ignoring the words they were saying and thier attempts to get free.

Bending down Minerva kissed both on the forehead and said "Goodluck and Harry...no matter what, I love you." as she pressed the button on top of the watch and watched as both teens died as thier souls, magic, and memories were sucked out of them and sent into the past.
