Chapter 1.
All was well (was it ?).
Harry potter age 36 years brought his hand down from his scar which had not hurt him since the demise of lord Voldemort.
As the train left the station Ron asked, "hey harry fancy a drink at leaky cauldron"?.
Harry replied," oh yes Ron why not but just let me say good bye to Ginny and Lily, they both are off to see the puddlemere united vs holyhead harpies match to lift lily's mood".
Lily was sad because she was not able to go to the Hogwarts this year like her two brothers. After saying goodbye to ginny and Lily, Harry and Ron went to leaky cauldron for a drink. In the leaky cauldron as they were talking and reminiscing their hogwart year when Ron suddenly said, I wish harry we had that timeturner of Hermione now maybe we could catch criminals before they commit crime. Time turners were now nearly nonexistent since the adventures of department of mysteries in Harrys fifth year but something about this comment stayed with harry. As they were finishing their butterbeer distress call came in and both Ron and Harry reported for duty as aurors. When they arrived in their meeting room,' kingsley' who was the minister of magic greeted them with sad expression and said " I don't know how to break it to you guys but apparently there was some explosion on the hogwarts express in few compartments, few students loss their lives in them were both of your sons Harry, also Rose was griveously injured ron". Hearing this Harry fell on the ground unconscious both Ron and kingsley tried to wake him up but to no avail.
Meanwhile Ron enquired, " Does Hermione and Ginny know about this? And what about Rose where is she?, is she ok"?,
"calm down Ron we have sent a letter to Hermione and Ginny they both should be here by now".
As they were trying to wake Harry another auror barged in and said nervously, "more bad news minister, the stadium where puddlemere united vs hoyhead harpies match was has also exploded and there are quite a lot of dead people. Investigation has begun on the cause, also the families of the dead will be owled shortly". Hearing this Ron said "Ginny and Lily were at that match minister if anything happens to them I dont know how Harry will survive please find out fast whether they are okay". Kingsley asked the auror to report directly to him about the potter women status and told him to few minutes the auror came back and reported both of them had died in the explosion. Both kingsley and Ron werre in dilemma of how to tell Harry about this. After few minutes Harry became conscious again and was told about Ginny and Lily. The grief Harry was in knew no bound, in one day he had lost everything he cherished the most in his entire life, his 'family'.
Ron took Harry to the Burrow, where he was greeted by rest of the weasleys and left for saint mungo's where rose was admitted. After a lot of comforting each other, Harry went upstairs to sleep but couldn't sleep the thoughts of Ginny and his children were ovewhelming him. Late into night Hermione and Ron came back from the hospital.
When they came to Harry's room they found him awake seeing the sad expression on his face Hermione said,' I am sorry Harry for Ginny and kids , how are you holding up? 'I lost everything today Hermione how do you think I am, Harry said. 'oh I am so sorry Harry' Hermione said and gave him a hug and the dam of tears which he was holding back bursted from Harry and finally he started grieving for his dead wife and children and fell asleep after some time. After Harry fell asleep Hermione kissed him on the forehead and went downstairs to inform rest of the weasleys about Rose hoping Harry would be all right.
In the morning a depressed and sad Harry came downstairs to find Hermione on the dining table and molly working in the kitchen, 'hi Harry' said Hermione and gave him a hug molly to came from the kitchen and followed the suit. 'Please sit down Harry what do you want to eat there are bacons and eggs' asked molly. Whenever molly was upset she had this great urge to prepare food for everybody, it was her way of grieving. After finishing the breakfast Harry Ron and Hermione went to the ministry to receive the bodies of Ginny Albus and James.
In the atrium they were surrounded by a large number of reporters, one of them asked 'how are you feeling mr. Potter? Do you know who did this? Where were you when this happened but Harry had no reply for anyone he pushed through the crowd like some inferi intent on seeing the bodies of his beloved ones. After completing formalities the bodies were released, the Golden trio took them to the potter manor for the funeral which was set for tomorrow. After whole day of mourning Harry made a promise to himself that he would find out whoever did this and bring them to justice. Many people were present for the funeral the whole order of phoenix and his hogwart friends were present along with weasleys. After the funeral kingsley approached Harry and said, 'harry we found out who did this, it was umbridge with the help of some bigoted allies. She was caught after the explosion near the stadium where she was laughing madly, aurors thought she had lost her marbles due to explosion but on further investigation she confessed to the crime'. ' but why did she do it?' Asked Harry, ' to take revenge on you Harry' was all kingsley replied. ' I want to meet her' Harry said suddenly, 'ok but do not kill her Harry she is not worth it, she will be tried by wizengamot and given justice' said kingsley, please dont do something you will regret Harry ' he added. In the integoration room Harry sat on the chair and opposite to him was umbridge chained to the chair. Harry asked 'why did you do it umbridge. Why'?. umbridge laughed and said,' for so long I have waited to see this look on you potter, because of you I lost my job. I could have been the next minister but because of you I was sentenced to azkaban for two years.'.' I decided to take revenge then, I couldn't kill you because it would not be much pain to you so I killed your family. So potter how does it fill to lose everything'.' you will be kissed by dementor for your crime umbridge I will make sure of it' Harry said. ' it doesn't matter now I have taken my revenge now I can die peacefully' umbridge replied. Harry seethed within he wanted to throttle umbridge but remebered kingsleys words, she was not worth it and he did not want umbridge to feel any more elated by his misery and so he left the room and went home to potter manor.
The potter manor was harrys family home which was destroyed in the dementors attack but after the war he rebuilded it and lived with his family there. He found Hermione and Ron waiting for him inside, all of them sat on the sofa where they were served tea by winky.
' What can winky bes doing for master harry' the downtrodden winky asked.
Nothing we will call you if anything is needed winky' Harry replied.
' Harry we are going to stay with you for time being till rose is in hospital, Hermione and I have decided that you will not be yourself because of this and we dont want you to do anything recklessly' Ron said,
' I will be fine Ron Hermione you dont need to babysit me' replied Harry.' but Harry we know you since we were eleven we dont want you to draw into yourself, and stop living please Harry consider this Ginny was Ron's sister to please Harry let us star here' Hermione intoned. Harry was stubborn as ever and told Hermione and Ron to leave and let him be. Both the weasley's left after failing to convince Harry. Few days went by but harrys depression did not go away, he started drinking fire-whiskey daily to forget the pain but to no avail.
One day while drinking he remembered the conversation he had with Ron about time turner on the day he lost everything and a plan started formulating in his mind but to complete it he needed the time turner and for that he needed Hermione. After the battle of hogwarts Hermione had completed her last year of education and was immediately recruited by the department of mysteries for her brilliant mind. So he owled Ron and Hermione and asked them to meet him at potter manor. Due to his self induced isolation the weasleys had no contact with Harry for the past few days so they immediately responded to the invitation before Harry could change his mind. The next day when Ron and Hermione arrived Harry greeted them and brought them to the study.
After closing the door he said, ' look I know that I have been out of touch with you guys for the last few days but I am fine, also I told you to come today so that I could tell you that I have found a way out of this mess and also a way to help a lot many people from being dead'.
'Harry you cant bring dead people to life harry it is not possible' Hermione argued. ' I know that so thats why I am going to use time turner so I need your help in getting it or making a new one' harry replied.
' Harry listen first of all I can guarantee you that all the time turners were destroyed in our fifth year and even if I could get notes from my predecessor from the dept of mysteries, it will be difficult to change the past because you cannot be seen by yourself and I dont know how are you going to accomplished the fact of ginny being dead' Hermione said.
' I dont know Hermione please build the time turner so that I can not only save my family but also sirius and all the lives which were lost during the battle'. It is not possible harry and going so back into the past it is never done before' Hermione replied. 'Heed her advice harry just let this crazy plan go away harry' Ron replied. Harry tried to convince Hermione but could not. After they left for their home harry made up his mind to make the time turner himself and complete his mission of saving everyone...
