**When She Was Bri.**

Chapter 1: Re-Introductions

As Brittany stood shaking waiting for the potion to be done, Barbara Clemings slipped into the room with a vial in her hand. As soon as Dumbledore turned to talk to Brittany, Barbara opened the vial and put in two drops of the liquid in the bubbling potion. Nothing happened, good. She smirked and slipped back out the door with a cup of the potion as well.

Barbara stood against the wall outside and slowly began changing. The Poly Juice Potion she'd taken was wearing off. A girl of 14 stood in the place that the 16-year-old Barbara had. She smiled again and held the cup tightly waiting.

She heard Brittany disappear and she took a swallow of the potion filling the hallway with light as she herself disappeared. The plan had worked.

"Brittany! Come on!" shouted Amber Love chasing Brittany around her bedroom.

"No! You have to keep him here, until your parents come back!" said Brittany holding up a locked box.

"Please Brittany, that has all of my magic stuff," said Amber with a pained look on her face.

"All this stuff is baloney compared to my experiences at Hogwarts," said Brittany running down the stairs.

"I don't care about your stupid dream Brittany! Just give me back my- " Brittany had had enough of people telling her she'd been dreaming about going back in time. She whipped out her wand and held it up to Amber's nose.

"B, I know all three Unforgivable curses thanks to Tom. I DID go back in time, I went to Hogwarts in 1941. or whatever year it was, and I DID get captured by Death Eaters. You're the only one besides my family who I thought would believe me, but they just put me in counseling. I have to find out what they've been talking about behind my back since I told them about my trip. This boy is Tom Riddle and you HAVE to help me while we're waiting for our letters to leave here!" said Brittany. Amber watched the wand and gulped.

"I didn't know your parents put you in counseling," she muttered.

"Tell me you'll help me."

"Alright. He can stay in Heather's room," said Amber looking over in the living room at the boy who was staring at them.

"Brittany, don't threaten her," said Tom standing. Brittany put her wand back in her pocket and sighed.

"Sorry. I just. I'm sick of hearing my parents talk about me without my knowledge of what they're talking about," said Brittany sighing and finding a place on the couch next to Tom. Amber watched her.

"Well what have they said?" she said trying to help.

"Something about finding me. and wondering if I found out about the Alameda's. But that's a street, of course I've found out about it," said Brittany blowing her bangs out of her eyes.

"Finding you. Alameda.. Maybe they found you on Alameda," said Amber sitting in the love seat and pulling her feet up.

"I don't know," muttered Brittany. Tom tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and smiled. "I have to go though. Dinner's at 6 and if I'm not there who knows what'll happen. The rents have been pretty unpredictable lately." She picked up her purse and turned to Tom. "I'll be back in the morning." He got up and kissed her softly.

"I'll be waiting," he whispered. Brittany smiled and ran out of the house hopping on her bike.

"Well I suppose I should show you to your room," said Amber sighing and leading Tom back up the stairs.

Brittany brushed out her strawberry blond hair and sighed. Leaving Tom at Amber's was probably a stupid idea, but until her parents came out and told her what they've been talking about it was her only option. She sat on the mattress she just recently put on the floor and put her hands on her eyes. **Today hasn't been a very good day.** She thought. **I keep having stomachaches, my eyes are burning, and mom and dad are still insisting I have counseling. Why does my life stink?** She lay back in her bed and closed her eyes willing sleep to come over the stomach cramps that were slowly getting worse. "Wait," she said slowly. "These aren't stomach cramps." Suddenly a bright light filled the room as it had when she'd first come back to the future and she disappeared leaving her room in a strong gust of wind.
