Hermione sighed as she tapped her fingers on the table in front of her, occasionally look at her watch from time to time. It had been a very long day for her in The Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and she was anxiously awaiting the end.

As the final minute approached, she reached for her bag while counting in her head.

"5, 4, 3, 2, 1," she said out loud before standing up and exiting her office.

Hermione walked rather quickly so that she can meet Harry and Blaise in the lobby. The elevator ride was too slow for her, but she was in a rush, so she thought everything was too slow for her liking.

As she entered the lobby, she found that the men weren't there yet. So she took a seat at a nearby empty bench. After about 5 minutes, she finally saw the familiar messy black hair and stood up.

"Hey, 'Mione," he said with a smile before going up to her and giving her a big hug.

"Hey, guys," she said, looking at Blaise, "Tough day of training?"

"As usual," Blaise replied.

"How about you, love?" Harry asked.

"Oh you know, the usual looking out for any law breakers. Well, shall we all head to the Burrow now?" she asked.

"Actually, we still have plenty of time. Why don't we stop by the candy shop real quick?" Harry replied, pouting at her.

"Oh alright. Alright with you, Blaise?" she asked the other man.

"I don't mind. I haven't seen Draco in a week," he replied.

With that, everyone got in to position and apparated one by one to the candy shop.

"Come back to Sugar Rush soon!" a cheery Jenine said to a costumer.

"Draco, time to close up the shop!" she said while turning the 'Open' sign to 'Close.'

Just months after leaving Hogwarts, Jenine and Draco opened up their own candy shop in Diagon Alley called 'Sugar Rush.' Their business immediately started to boom and in January, they paired up with Weasley's Wizard Wheezes to make candy pranks.

"You know, I never thought that the edible knickers would be such a big hit," Draco said behind her.

"I know. I didn't know people enjoy eating thongs," she said before laughing.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. When Jenine saw that it was Hermione, Harry, and Blaise, she immediately opened the door.

"How are you two candy freaks doing?" Hermione said teasingly before giving her cousin in law a hug.

"Well, business has been rather busy lately," she explained.

"Yeah. Since it's the end of August, most of the customers are Hogwarts students, too," Draco finished.

"Probably stocking up for the long year ahead of them," Blaise suggested.

"So, how are my two favorite newly weds today?" she said, looking at Harry and Hermione.

"Oh come on Jenine, we've been married since October. We hardly consider ourselves newly weds anymore," Harry said.

"Yeah, but I still like calling you two that. It can be like, 50 years into the marriage and I'd still call you that," she said jokingly.

"Well, I think we should continue this discussion at the Burrow," Hermione said, looking at her watch.

Jenine and Malfoy made final lock ups before joining the other three so that they can apparate to the Burrow.

Meanwhile, Melany locked up the shop before getting ready to leave as well.

"You guys should start getting ready too," she said to the twins, who were developing a new prank that it involved various colors of paint.

They both turned around and she saw that they were both covered in paint.

"Please?" they asked her.

"Where are your wands?" she replied.

"On the table outside," they answered again, pouting.

"Fine," she said before muttering a spell that cleaned them up.

"Hurry, where almost going to be late!" she said.

"Don't worry, we won't be late," her boyfriend replied as he put his wand in his pocket.

"Yeah, Mel. Have we ever made you late for anything before?" Fred asked her.

"No, but if you keep on wasting time then today will be the first."

The twins rolled their eyes before they said, "Ready?"

She nodded before she left the room with a pop. Melany then reappeared in the Weasley's living room, shortly before Geore and Fred arrived.

"Aunt Mela!" Teddy said before going up to her.

Melany bent down and hugged the now three year old boy before he went to go play with the twins.

"Hey dad," she said, taking a seat between him and Tonks.

"How's work?" he asked her.

"Tiring, as usual. Lots of kids nowadays," she replied.

She then turned to Tonks, who was holding a sleeping three month old Serenity.

"She's starting to look like you," Melany said to her.

"Yes, but she has Remus's eyes," she said, smiling.

"Speaking of him where is he?" the other girl replied, turning to his father.

"Getting ready for the meeting I suppose," Sirius replied.

"And you're not?" she asked.

"Naw, too much hard work," he said jokingly.

Melany just rolled her eyes before she stood up and walked into the kitchen. There, she saw the whole group again sitting at the table. George motioned her to sit at the empty seat next to him.

"So did I miss anything?" she asked them after taking a seat.

"I was just explaining how training camp is such a pain in the arse," Ginny said.

A month ago, she had just been accepted to join the Harpies, and Ron went to go play for the Cannons.

"Ginny, mind your mouth," Molly said as she entered the room, "For that, will you please call everyone for the meeting?"

The red head rolled her eyes before leaving the kitchen. Soon after, the rest of the grown ups took a seat at the table. Now the only one who was missing was Remus.

"He said he'll be down in a minute," she said to the others.

The group chatted amongst themselves for about 10 minutes before Remus entered the room. But it was not just himself. He was also accompanied by Albus Dumbledore.

The headmaster cleared his throat before saying, "I would like to call this meeting for the Order of the Phoenix to begin, please."

The group suddenly shut their mouths and turned to the man.

"Now, the main reason I called you all here for this meeting is that a very important mission has come up regarding this," he said before reaching into his pocket and grabbing a piece of parchment.

He opened it and started to read it.

Dear Mr. Albus Dumbledore,

You are probably why a phoenix is sending you this letter. Well, if you don't know yet, phoenixes are able to send letters to different time zones. So yes, this letter is from your past self. 21 years in the past to be exact.

The main subject of this letter is that I am in need of help. I have sent the majority of this time's Order of the Phoenix on a very important mission. Three of them happen to be teachers from Hogwarts.

Since I am having a very difficult time searching for fill ins, I am asking you to please send in some of your people from your time to take their positions.

Please send me your reply as soon as possible.

Signed,

Albus Dumbledore

When he was done reading, everyone looked at each other with wide eyes and their mouths were hanging.

"Well did you accept?" Tonks asked.

"I was hoping to, but I also have to reply with the names of the people. Which is why I called you all here so that you can approve of my decision," he explained.

"We're listening," Sirius said.

"I was hoping on sending the students who currently graduated Hogwarts," he said, looking at the group.

They then looked at each other, their mouths opening wider.

"Why us, professor?" Harry asked.

"Well, I thought that you guys would have the more experience, seeing that you maintained Dumbledore's army in your 5th year. Plus, you guys just graduated a year ago, so you must still have some information in you heads."

At this, the twins snorted and the group laughed.

"But are you sure they can handle it all, Albus? I mean, they are still pretty young," Molly asked.

"But they did go through the biggest war ever. So time traveling should be nothing compared to that," Arthur argued.

"So, the real question is, do you guys accept the invitation?" Remus said.

The group looked at each other and smiled before Jenine said, "Of course we do!"

Dumbledore grinned and got another piece of parchment out. He stuck it on Fawkes, his phoenix, and the bird flew out the window.

After another 10 minutes, the bird flew in again and Dumbledore read the letter it carried.

To Albus Dumbledore,

I am delighted that you are sending so much, even though only three are needed. But I am willing to make some students and have two teachers per class.

The open teaching positions are for Muggle Studies, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Potions.

I will be expecting them as soon as tomorrow. Thank you for the help you have provided.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

Without any hesitation, Harry said, "I want to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts."

"I second that," Ron said, and the others nodded.

"Who do you want to assist you, cousin?" Jenine asked.

He smiled and turned to his wife before saying, "Hermione, would you like to?"

She smiled as well and said, "Of course!"

"Great. So any Potion takers?" Sirius asked.

"We'll do it!" the twins said enthusiastically.

"You two? You guys can't even do your own homework," Ginny said.

"Ah, but they did get outstanding on their NEWTs," Melany said.

"Fine, fine. As long as they actually teach something," the red head girl replied.

"Oh, we will," the twins said with mischievous grins on their faces.

"And last is Muggle Studies," Remus said.

"I nominate Melany and Jenine. They taught us a lot about muggle candy last year," Blaise said.

"I second that!" Draco replied, winking at Jenine.

"Alright, then. While those people teach, the rest of you will all become students. I expect to see you all at m office tomorrow morning at 8. Am I clear?" Dumbledore said to his former students, who just nodded.

"Okay then, good night everyone," he said before leaving with a pop.

Everyone decided to go get packed and come back to the burrow so that they can sleep over. Even though they were supposed to sleep early, the group was still wide awake in the living room.

"I can't believe we're going back 21 years. That's what? 1977?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah. Wait, 1977?" Harry asked.

"That's should be right. Why?" she replied.

"That's the year the Mauraders were in school," Melany said.

"Yeah, along with Harry's, Melany's, and my mom," Jenine replied.

"Yes! We're actually going to meet the famous Mauraders!" Fred said with excitement in his voice.

"You've met Sirius and Remus," Hermione clarified.

"I meant all of them together," he replied.

"Well, I suggest we all get some sleep now. Long day tomorrow," Melany said.

Everyone nodded before getting comfortable. Soon after, they were all fast asleep.
