Hi guys, so this is my second fanfiction so please don't be too harsh. Ok so, this is as I said already about George Weasley who is sent back in time to read the books with the Marauders and Lily, this is just a prologue, I will start with the actual book in the next chapter, where George actually gets to meet the Marauders
It was 3 months after the great battle of Hogwarts, and the castle was finally rebuilt, not a single sign left that there had been a battle there, or that the castle had once been a complete ruin. The only place where it was possible to see such remains was in the forbidden forest, where bits of stone and other parts of the castle that have been blown up still remain. These have been left there as a reminder and a as a symbol of those who died in the battle defending everything they loved. Professor McGonagall, newly instated headmistress of Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry sat in her office, preparing to go down to the start-of-term feast, and the sorting ceremony. Down in the Great Hall, students of all ages were eager to start a new year at Hogwarts, the first years were all crossing the lake, and were as nervous as all the other students have been before the sorting.
Minerva just made to stand up and get the sorting hat when there was a knock on the door. The reason she was still in her office and not down in the Great Hall has just arrived.
"Come in," she said. And the next moment a tall red-headed man came in, it was very weird to see him on his own, without another man identical to him standing behind or next to him.
"I got your owl professor, saying you wanted to see me, and that it could be really important." said George.
"That's right Mr. Weasley; well I guess you're wondering why I called you here today," she said, as George nodded
"That is because I have a very important job for you, of course that is if you accept It." she said, "I believe there is a way in which we can avoid having to lose so many loved ones, in the tragic battle that we were involved a couple of months previously." George turned pale at the thought, he had remembered how in the battle, he had lost the one person that meant the world to him, his twin brother Fred. McGonagall, seeing his reaction decided to continue telling him the task, which would perhaps brighten his mood, although she knew how bad he must be feeling, having seen them together in her office for the past 7 years more than any other students.
"I have been able to get a time-turner from the ministry, and I thought that you would be the best person for the job of going back in time and retelling the story of Harry Potter to his parents and the rest of their friends, that is to say the rest of the Marauders. I believe that if they know what things will be like in the future, they will be able to change a few things and possibly avoid losing so many loved ones in the fight against Voldemort. The first thing being to get rid of one of their closest friends Peter Pettigrew, who was the main reason Harry lost his parents. Now if you agree to it, I'm sure you would be the best person to take on this job, what do you say, Mr. Weasley?" she said, sounding quite excited. George turned around for a second and then turned back again realizing there was no one there to share the excitement of the job with.
"I would do anything if it meant that Harry could have his parents and I could have Fred back!" There was obviously some colour back in his face and somewhat of an enthusiasm in his voice.
"Well then that's absolutely great, now, first of all, I have to warn you, this is quite a dangerous job and you mustn't reveal who you are, you can keep your name as being George Weasley, although you will be a cousin of the Weasley's that has been studying magic in a different country, but you decided to finish your last year at Hogwarts. Second of all the people who you tell the story to, they should be Lily Evans, James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and no one else, they're the ones who can change everything and if anyone else gets involved in this, it could end up quite badly. I don't think it will be that hard reading these books in privacy, what could be tricky is getting Lily Evans to join the group for such a long time, given that at the beginning of their 7th year she hated James more than anything else, but I believe you can do that. Now, you will be taken to the Headmaster's office, on the first day of school, when you get there, the Hogwarts student will only just be arriving in the Hogwarts Express, I want you to give this letter here to the Headmaster, it will explain everything he needs to know, and he will be able to guide you from there. One more thing, you'll be able to get back to the present day at the end of the year, on the last day of school, by simply holding on to the time turner, since I have placed a charm on it that will help you get back without any further complications." While she said everything George was getting more and more excited about the task that he has been given, after all he will be able to meet the Marauder's, his and Fred's greatest role models.
McGonagall, then said in a very strict and calm voice, "George, I want you to finish reading all the books by the end of the year, it is very important that you do so, you must organize your time very well, I'm sure you would be able to do so, but just in case, a bit of advice is that if you read one chapter every day, you'll be just fine, and with some time to spare as well, so you have more than enough time, just make sure you fulfil your purpose there, oh yeah and whenever you're reading I want everyone I mentioned to be present, because every bit of information in these books is crucial for changing the future, do you understand?" she told him
"Of course I do professor; I solemnly swear that I will do everything that is possible of me to fulfil my duty in the past." George said in an enthusiastic voice
"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, while you're gone time will seem to pass normally but when you come back, I don't there would have been more than a week that has actually passed, so you won't be missing out on much." McGonagall told him
"That's brilliant professor!"
"Well then, here you go the letter and the time turner. Good Luck Mr. Weasley, and don't make too much trouble, I have enough problems in the past, with the Marauder's as it is, without you enhancing their mischief!" she told him with a huge smile on her face.
"Now I can't promise you that professor, thanks anyway I'll try not to create too many problems but I can't promise you anything." And with that he disappeared. McGonagall then continued to the start of term fest, feeling hopeful and satisfied.
Ok, I know this was really short but it's just a prologue and the actual thing is gonna start in the next chapter. Thanks for reading, and please review :)
