Aria Lily Potter was walking back to her common room furious. She had six days left to find a partner for the Yule ball, or else she would show up alone. Much to her great disappointment, she had been told she was required to show up with a partner to open the ball with a traditional dance.

Her first thought was to ask Cedric -the boy she was crushing on, and her fellow champion- but he mentioned he was going with his girlfriend. The Ravenclaw seeker, Cho Chang. The boys in her dorm said they would've gone with her (as friends of course) but they all had dates already. Even Ron bloody Weasley! Ron, her best friend, who was clueless and completely tactless somehow managed to get Padma Patil to go with him! Dean was going with Pavarti, and Seamus with Lavendar. Neville even had a date, he was taking Rons younger sister Ginny who otherwise wouldn't be able to go.

Aria's fury of thoughts was interupted when their was a sudden bright white light, and she felt the similiar feeling she had when they used a portkey before the World Cup. Seconds later she was dropped hard on the floor. Jumping to her feet with her wand drawn, Aria looked around quickly to notice she was in a room very similiar to the Gyffindor common room, and she was not alone. She saw the entire Weasley family trying to get up off the floor, Hermione Granger standing a few feet away in a similiar posture. Across the room were Professors McGonagall and Dumbledore, her Godfather Sirius Black, her 'uncle' Remus Lupin, Aurors Nymphadora Tonks (who prefered to only be known by her surname) and Kingsley Shacklebolt, Alastor 'Mad-Eye' Moody, and a turqoise haired boy she didn't know. She slowly lowered her wand and jumped on her confused godfather, hugging him tightly.

"SIRIUS!" He quickly realized who attacked him and hugged her back before turning to the Headmaster.

"Professor Dumbledore, any ideas as to where we are or why we are here?" He obviously had not noticed the strange boy that everyone else was staring at.

"No, my boy, I do not. However, he may." He gestured towards the only calm person in the room; the turqoise haired stranger who was sitting on a chair.

"Er, right I guess I should explain," he smiled sheepishly. "My name's Teddy, I understand this is going to sound udderly preposterous, but I'm from the future. In the future the war is over, but with too many unnecessary lost lives. We've created a seperate timeline, and have temporarily frozen it. This is so I can tell you of your future and help change it." As ridiculous as it sounded, Aria couldnt help but believe him. She did not know why, but she could tell he wasn't lying.

"And we're just supposed to go along with this? How do we know you are not a death eater?" Kingsley raised an eyebrow at the boy, while Moody nodded in agreement.

"Hm, we thought you might say that. First of all; I'm not born yet in your timeline, and Voldyshorts was defeated and killed two months after I was born, so it'd be pretty hard for me to be a supporter of someone I never knew. Also, if I was a Death Eater why would I come here to help you change the future and destroy him? Anyways, i was given some information that only certain people would know. This information was given to me by the Aria from my time who is also my godmother!"

"For some reason I want to believe you, but I feel like if I don't ask then Moody will never forgive me soooo..." Aria trailed off indicating for Teddy to continue.

"Oh right, well Aria said to give you these letters; they are personalized for each person that way Im not blurting out secrets in front of everyone..." He pulled a stack of envelopes from his bag and passed them out. Aria opened hers, feeling a bit weird about reading a letter she supposedly wrote to herself.

Aria,

Right, this probably sounds ridiculous. I get it, but Teddy's telling the truth (or atleast if he told you he's from the furture, then he is...). Your probably wondering how he's going to tell you and help you chaange the future. Well, our brilliant sister-in-law who also happens to be related to us by blood (I'll send another letter dealing with that later!) has created a spell that transfers everything that happened during a certain time period (or atleast that is relevant!) into a book! Yes, you will be reading about books that are from your point of view about your life. Don't worry though, none of it has happened yet so you can't be toooo embarassed! I guess I should tell you a few thigns before you start reading though shouldn't I? Well first don't be too upset about the ball; Cedric turned out to be only a crush that lasted maybe a few more days from now ;)! We end up going with an amazing guy,and had an amazing night! The next few years in the books are horrible. They are filled with war and death; remember that this is all changing! When people you care about die I know you will be upset; but don't worry too much because it won't happen this time! I figure I should tell you a bit about my life now, since I may be sending some important people from my life there to meet you guys for a bit.

This might seem really strange to you now (unless you already have a crush on him; I honestly look back and remember loving him as far back as I can think!) but we are married to Mr. Fred Weasley! I'm pretty sure one of the first few chapters shows the start of our relationship. The past sixteen years that we've been married, and the four and a bit years we dated have been absolutely amazing. He always keeps a smile on my face and keeps me from freaking out (which we both know would happen alot if it weren't for him!). Teddy is our godson, he's just about to turn seventeen and we consider him our oldest child. He lost his parents during the war when he was a few months old and Fred and I have basically raised him with the help of his grandmother. After Teddy we have three children; James Sirius and Lily Luna are twins and fifteen. They will probably come to visit, but they are both very much like us pranksters and always taking care of everyone else. Then we have little Drake Charlus Septimus. This summer you will need to go to Gringotts with Sirius (after he's cleared of course; no need to cause any heart attacks!) and speak with the Potter family accountant. As the last remaining Potter, you become the head of house, when you come of age you will be known formally as Lady Aria Potter of the Most Ancient and Noble House of Potter, informally as Aria Potter-Weasley! In my time Sirius did not have any children and left you as the heir to the black family. I am known as Lady Aria Potter-Black of the Most Ancient and Most Noble Houses of Potter and Black, informally as Aria Potter-Black-Weasley. Mouthfull isn't it? I'm sure Sirius can explain all the Ancient and Noble house stuff to you later, so I won't get into that. But just so you know, after Teddy comes of age he will become the head of the Black family and the role of head of house potter will be left to James when Fred and I are no longer able to take the spot.

Now don't worry, everything will turn out for the better,

xx, Lady Aria Lily Potter-Black-Weasley,

Looking up from her letter Aria scanned the room until she caught Fred's eye and he winked at her. While everyone else was reading or thinking about what they read, Fred made his way to stand next to Aria.

"So we're married..." he smirked as she blushed.

"So I've been told." She replied quietly. She's always had a bit of a crush on Fred but she assumed he thought of her as just his little brothers best friend.

"I know you probably already have a date but well I really like you and I was hoping maybe you'd want to go to the ball with me?" Aria almost wanted to giggle. She had never seen Fred this nervous; it was utterly adorable. He was biting down on his lip and had his eyebrows crinkled while running a shaky hand through his already messy hair.

"I'd love to!" She smiled as he let out a breath of relief.

"What do you think everyone else's letter said..."

"Probably who they married, where they work that sort of thing I guess."

"I bet you five galleons that my future sister in laws are Hermione, Ginny's friend Luna Lovegood, Fleur Delacour, Percy's girlfriend Audrey and Angelina." Fred ponders as Aria shakes her head.

"Hermione, Audrey, Fleur, and I'll bet one of your brothers doesn't get married, and one of them is gay." Aria smirked as Fred contemplated this.

"Which one do you think is gay?" He asked her as she looked around at them all.

"Hmm...Ron." Fred stared at her as if she had suddenly said she was giving birth to a cerbrus.

"No way! If any of them it would definitely be Percy!" Fred almost shouted but dropped his voice when people started to turn towards them.

"No Im serious! Ron's the only one of your brothers who no one has ever heard him talk about a girl, let alone done anything with a girl! I don't think it's Percy; Remember in Ginny's first year she walked in on him and Penelope Clearwater snogging?" Fred's face turned slightly green at the reminder of his brother snogging his ex and he shuddered slightly.

"I see your point...I still don't think Ron's gay though." Aria rolled her eyes and told him he wouldn't be so sure of himself when he was handing over the five galleons.

"Soooo has everyone read there letters?" Teddy asked awkwardly to the room full of people staring at him. He had never liked crowds...why couldn't she have sent Jay and Lily back! he mentally groaned.

"Okay well then I guess we should read...we'll start basically where you were when I brought you all here...just to clarify Aria you were on the way to your common room, right?" When she nodded he nodded his head and picked up the smaller of the four books...makes sense it's starting half way through the year I guess.
