Ch. 1

Hermione and Catherine Granger; two cousins who find themselves at Hogwarts after the downfall of the Dark Lord Voldemort, they were there in the Headmaster's Office after receiving a letter stating that they were to be there as soon as possible. Catherine knew that Hermione has been going to Hogwarts for seven or so years with her best friends Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley, but she had not known of why she was also summoned to come as well. When she had gone to Ireland's Gifted Arts for the same amount of time that Hermione has been in school, but still not knowing of why she had to come as well. So the two young ladies stood in the grand office, with Albus Dumbledore's old stuff decorated the place that dealt with time. From things that looked like the solar system with silver and gold wires going different places that represents time and space movement, which could go hand and hand together, or work against each other.

Both ladies had brown-red hair, Hermione had hers in a bun, while Catherine had hers in a French braid; Hermione with her brown eyes show her questions, while Catherine with her green-blues shown her sense of wonder for the place.

The two ladies looked up behind the Headmaster's desk and found Headmaster Dumbledore with his eyes open, looking at the two girls. "I see that you have gotten my letter Miss Hermione and Miss Catherine Granger. I have a mission for the two of you, from the sister fates; Lachesis, Clotho, and Atropos, they would like you two to change what has already have come to pass."

Hermione asked, "You mean the second war that has just past? How can we change that?"

Albus chuckled in his grandfatherly way, "For the two of you to be sent back through time of course. They have told me that Harry could have had a normal life without being our Chosen One, so in the end I would have to say that you were right Hermione. We really did not have to have Harry to be the one to end the wars that is why the two of you are here. It is through the two of you with the help of fates to change things in order to stop Tom Riddle from coming into power, or bring in down much earlier than today."

Catherine asked, "So when are we going to meet these sisters, so we can change all that we can change?" Albus saw that she was willing do what it took to make things better for all, just like her Gryffindor cousin.

Albs smiled as he called out, "Lachesis! Clotho! Atropos! Come out; come out, wherever you are!" Just as he had ended his calling for the fates; a bright blue light was shown within the office, behind the two girls, from where they were standing. Once the light was gone, the painting spoke again, "Fates! You have two champions for the three of you."

When Hermione and Catherine turned around, they saw three differently aged women before them. One looked like she could be the same age as their grandmother, with long flowing gray and white hair and gray eyes, and lots of wrinkles upon her face, neck, and hands. The second one could be the same age as their mothers, with her shoulder length brown hair and green eyes with some wrinkles upon her face. The third and final lady looked to be the same age as them, with long blond hair that comes down to her waist and her icy blue eyes. Each of the three sister looked like they were sad, tired, and stressed out from the dealings that they have experienced in their lives.

The older woman spoke up, "My name is Lachesis, I am known for the things that were."

Catherine spoke up, "Past."

Lachesis smiled, "That is right dear. My sisters and I have asked Albus to bring the two of you here to help us to change time as we know it from ever happening again, will you help us?"

Hermione asked, "Which one of you is Clotho?"

The lady that was the same age as their mothers stepped forward, "I am dear, what would you like to know?"

"Could things really change for the better, if we change the past?"

Clotho spoke in her worldly voice, "You mean if you change the past and Harry had a different childhood, would he be better off even without helping the world, then yes."

Catherine spoke up after being in deep thought, "Atropos, right?" She asked the young woman of the sister, who nodded. "What would have been our futures if we had stayed?"

Atropos spoke like she was Luna Lovegood herself; she almost looked like her too, "Hermione would have married Ronald Weasley and have about five children, but she would not be very happy with the marriage when he keeps running off with Lavender Brown. You, Catherine would have married Seamus Flanagan after Hermione had gotten you to meet him. You end up okay, but always get mad whenever he tried blowing up the house all the time. You would have two children with him."

Hermione gasped and through her hands to her face, "Oh Catherine, I am so sorry that I will do that. I know that he is great guy, but I should have thought about someone else."

Atropos smiled, "You did, but you did not want to end up having Draco Malfoy in the family."

Hermione growled and stomped her foot, "No I would not, not after seven years of Mudblood and other things, no thank you!"

Lachesis asked, "So; would the smartest witch of her age and her cousin, be able to do things that we are asking you to do? Will the two of you travel back in time and change everything that you have ever known?"

Hermione and Catherine looked at each other; that gave a nod at the other, and then faced the three fates and spoke as one, "Yes!"

Clotho smiled, "Grand." She then fished out two leather journals from within her robes and brought them out for the two mortal ladies to grab. "These journals are similar like Riddle's diary but different, you will not find an evil soul like his, but you will have direct communication to the three of us with these journals. All you have to do is write a question or explain what has come to pass that you would like help in understanding, and we will help you by writing back or show things like you would through a pensive or something like that." Each journal has a Celtic cross upon it; Hermione was given a ruby colored one, while Catherine had a sapphire one.

Atropos grinned, "You have already packed for the journey since you have not found a home yet to put your stuff, so are you ready to go?"

Hermione still had her beaded beg that had everything she owned in it, while Catherine was carrying around a book beg that has same charms upon it, like Hermione's beg. Each of the girls had money pouches in their pockets and in their begs, enough money to pay for a flat for three years if needed. The girls had also added their journals into their begs for safe keeping, until they would be needing them.

Catherine sighed in defeat knowing that they need to be leaving soon, before their friends start hunting them down. "Yeah, we're ready when you are."

Albus called out from his frame, "Good luck my dears, and you are making the right choice."

Clotho spoke up, "Before we send you back, I will warn you that will be getting help from other people as well, either through the journals or come to you like ghost like figures that only you two could see and hear."

Both Hermione and Catherine had spoken as one, "Like whom?"

Lachesis smiled, "It could be anyone, even Merlin himself."

The answer that they were given was not enough for the Granger girls, but they would have to live with it, knowing that fates may not always give them a straight answer. The three fates moved themselves to make a triangle with the two mortals in the middle of them. Each one of the fates with their two hands rose up towards the side of the triangle shape, to trap the Grangers within.

"Εμείς αδελφές της μοίρας, φέρνουν αυτά τα δύο μέσα στο χρόνο και στο χώρο. Γη τους στην 28η Αυγούστου του 1977.." (We sisters of fate, bring these two through time and space. Land them in August 28th of 1977.) "Good luck Grangers." With a flash of golden light, they were gone.

Albus spoke from his painting, "Merlin help them."
