Chapter 1

"Gone in a Blink of an Eye"

The as the wind blew a bitter cold could be felt in the air tonight. I wrapped my jacket closer around me trying to keep myself warm as I listened to the fight that sprung out again between Ron and Harry inside the tent. I reached up to my neck touching the time turner that was hidden under my shirt. It brought back many memories, happy ones from school. It was that year that Harry had found that he still had someone who was like family. But that person was long gone. I dropped my hand down shaking my head trying to rid myself of these sad thoughts. I took a deep breath and looked up to the stars in the clear sky and what a beautiful sight it was. It was strange that at this very moment a war was going on in the world that we lived in; a war that we were losing.

"SHUT UP HARRY YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!" shouted Ron "I SHOULD NEVER HAVE AGREAD TO COME ON THIS POINTLESS TRIP IF YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE DOING." I could not take any more of this yelling. I lifted myself off the stump and stormed into the tent "RON! What are you doing? We agreed to come because Harry needs us. Are you just going to abandon him? Abandon what hope the world has left in ending this damn war?" I looked into Ron's eyes pleading with him to understand. Ron stopped and looked at me radiating with rage. "Ron please give me the locket." I extended my hand waiting for him to hand it over. "YOU KNOW WHAT FINE! HERE TAKE IT, BUT I'M LEAVING." Ron ripped the locket off and as he stormed passed me he shoved it forcefully into my chest. My eyes grew wide as I heard a sickening cracking sound and the hourglass cutting into my chest. Everyone in the room froze. "Hermione what was that?" asked Harry fear engraved on his face. I lifted the chain from out of my shirt so show a broken time turner. The sand was falling out of it landing down my shirt. My heart started to pick up and I was honestly scared to move. "HERMIONE I THOUGHT THAT BROKE ALREAD WHY DIDN'T….." And that was the last thing I heard Ron say before darkness took over.

My head hurt really badly, it was pounding. I laid there with my eyes closed as my ears adjusted to the sounds around me. I could hear the sound of crickets and birds chirping, I could feel that I was laying on the grass and pine needles. Right there I could figure that I was still in the woods. "What the hell happened to me?" I whispered as I brought my hand up to my head then everything rushed back to me hitting me like a ton of bricks. "My time turner!" I sat up really fast I looked at my shirt to see blood from where the time turner had cut into my skin as it broke. I pulled my jacket and shirt down to see how badly the wound, but to find that there was not even a mark from where it was. I let go of my shirt and began to look around me. Everything looked the same as it was before I blacked out minus the disappearance of the tent ,Ron and Harry. "Crap! Crap, crap, crappy, crap!" I screamed. "Ok Hermione calm down. Everything will be ok." I started to pace around trying to think of something to get me out of this trouble that I landed myself in. "Ok I need to find a newspaper to find out the date before I can think of anything else to do." I shook my head as if to agree with myself. "And maybe try not to talk to myself would be a good idea as well."

I felt my pockets to make sure my wand was still there, thankfully it was, before I apparited to muggle London the first place that popped into my head. I had landed in a dark alley behind some garbage cans. I took off the chain that was left from the time turner and put it as well as my wand in to my charmed purse before I carefully I walked out so that no one saw me as I blended with the crowed. I stopped by a newspaper stand acting as if I was looking to buy as I scanned for a date and what I saw made my heart nearly stop, the year was August 28th, 1977. I had gone back ruffle 20 years and if I was correct that meant that Harry's Parents were in their last year at Hogwarts. This was bad anything I did could cause a rift in the timeline. Just being here in muggle London was bad enough, but I can't just stay here doing nothing. I heaved a sigh I have to see Professor Dumbledore he would know what to do. I left the newspaper stand and continued walking thinking about what was I going to do and how. The thought of not returning home scared me a lot, but if I played my cards out right maybe I could use what I now to make everything right this time so Harry could have a good child hood. Then another thought was should I tell Professor Dumbledore? He would know what to do, but what if he stops me in my attempt to fix this time. No, I am going to tell him I have to trust him he is probably the only person who will believe me anyways and he would most likely help me for the greater good of the wizardry world.

Once my course of action was decided I had already walked almost the street I had quickly ducked into an alley and apparited to Hogsmeade. I took no time to steady myself I just continued to walk all the way up to the gate, but that is as far as I got cause the gate was locked. "Crap" I shook the gate to no success. "Think Hermione. Think." Then it dawned on me I could send a Patronus to Professor Dumbledore to ask to speak with him. I reached into my purse and retrieved my wand. "Expecto Patronum!" The spell was cast and my otter was made. "I would like to request a meeting with Professor Dumbledore." And just like that my patronus was gone. It only look 5 minutes before the gates to Hogwarts opened and another three before someone had come to great me. I couldn't tell who they were at first but as she got closer I knew right away that it was Professor McGonagall. She looked exactly the same, but with a few less wrinkles. "Welcome to Hogwarts, my name is Professor McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress. Now please explain your reasoning for requesting a meeting with the headmaster." "Professor McGonagall I understand that the Headmaster is quite busy with the upcoming school year that is rapidly approaching, but my request to meet with him is in a means of life or death. I would not have asked at this time if it was not of the upmost importance." She looked at me with the same stern look that I knew her to wear as if she was trying to decide if she should trust me. "What is you name miss?" she asked as her tone suggested that she was going to give me the better of the doubt. What should I say? My name is one that no one would recognize now but what if later in the future someone will recognize me? "Hermione, Ma'am Hermione Granger." She nodded once and went to turn away. "Follow me Miss Granger."

The trip to the headmaster's office was quit and I had used that time to prepare myself to see a live Professor Dumbledore and not a painting. I wonder if I would blurt out something I shouldn't or would I be calm and collected. As that thought circled in my head, we had arrived at the gargoyles that guarded the entrance into his office. By the time I had pulled myself out of my thoughts the gargoyles had already moved aside allowing us entrance into the stairway that lead up to his office. My heart started to pound I had really not thought this trough I had just acted kind of like how I would expect Harry to do. I took a deep breath and let it out I will do just what Harry would do. I am going to march myself up those steps and do what I think is right and tell the only person that I know of that can help me in this situation. I walked up the steps as the gargoyles moved back in place hiding the entrance to the staircase.

Right as I was about to knock a voice called out enter and the door swung open. Hesitantly I walked into his office behind the desk sat an old man his hair was white with slight streaks of brown. His beard was quite long but not as long as I remember from when he was alive. His eyes although were exactly as I remembered them with that knowing twinkle as if he held the entire answers one would ever seek. I could see now that this war had aged him greatly. "Professor Dumbledore?" he nodded once and began to speak. "Well it seems that you dear know me, but I must say that I am at a disadvantage seeing as I can't seem to recall who it is I am speaking to. It seems to be coming with old age." He gave a slight chuckle. "I am sorry sir it was very rude of me not to introduce myself. My name is Hermione Granger." He looked at me with his head turned sideways as if he was trying to put a name with a face, but his twinkling eyes told differently. "Well it is very nice to meet you Miss Granger. Seeing as it is almost the start of term and there is a lot to get finished before September 1st, I can safely assume that this meeting is of up most importance or else my deputy Headmistress would have requested to have this meeting another day. So please have a seat and let's began." I nodded my head and took a seat in front of his desk. I looked up at him to see that he was waiting for me to start and that I had his undivided attention. "Um sir what I am about to tell you is going to be quite dificult to believe or, but please have an opened mind." I let my words sink in before he gave a nod to continue. I took a deep breath and began again. "You are correct in stating that I do know you, but you don't know me…as of yet." I paused again letting him take in what I said yet again. "I am from the future, 20 years to be exact. You see what happened was we were on a mission for you and my time turner kind of broke. Wait I have it right here." I dug into my purse to pull out the broken time turner and placed it on his desk for him to see. The sand was all gone from the hourglass and all that remained was the frame of the hourglass and the chain. "What happened to it and where is the sand." He asked gently lifting it up to get a closer look. "When it broke it dug in to my skin cutting me and the sand spilled out, but there is no mark from it braking. The only sign left of it cutting me is the blood that had stained my shirt." I unzipped my jacket showing the red stain. Dumbledore put down the time turner and looked up at me. "Well Miss Granger at this time I cannot help you return to your time with the means that you have arrived to us. Time Turners are just wishful thinking it is still in the theory process. Although they have a few designs none were successful as of yet." Professor Dumbledore leaned back in his chair. "I figured sir in my time the time turners were still considered a new discovery that was still being improved." I sighed I was not going to be getting home anytime soon it seemed. "I can see about giving this design over to the Department of Mysteries and see if they can recreate it. Now as for you Miss Granger, this is going to be a very sticky situation. It is not wise to mess with time because everything can come unraveled. Your knowledge could cause a lot of problems, but it could also save many lives." He looked at me with a serious face. "Sir I am well aware of how important it is that just me being here talking to you can cause a lot of problems, but as you have clearly stated it can also save many lives. But what you are forgetting is with what I know and what I have seen I can give people the second chances they need I know who to trust and who not to. Time is like water once touched or meddles with can because a different outcome, but I know what steps to take and how to make them so that the outcomes we want are achieved." Professor Dumbledore just sat quietly listening to ever word that rapidly left my mouth. "The only thing is Professor I need your help I can't do this without you. I know you probably don't want to know all that is going to happen in the future and if you don't want to know I won't tell you. The only things I will tell are the things you will need to do that are the upmost importance. If we are able to secure the people we need before Tom does we can…" Dumbledore put his hand up stopping in my tracks of pleading and ranting. "Child how old are you?" I was confused and bewildered my age was not important what did a number had to do with the information that I knew. "I'm 17, sir." "And have you completed your Hogwarts education?" I looked down "No sir. But you have to understand we were on a very important mission for you." I felt like I was defending myself as if it was my choice to not return, well it was but still. "What kind of mission would be more important then returning to school?" Professor Dumbledore was waiting for me to respond, but I was truly hesitant to say. "Sir, we were hunting Tom's horcruxes." Dumbledore's eyes had gotten wide. "Miss Granger, why would I have asked this of you?" I looked him in the eyes "Sir you didn't ask this of me, you asked this of Harry. Ron and I would do anything for Harry." Determination burned in my eyes. "Miss Granger maybe it is time for a little story. Cut out whatever you feel is not important or that I should not know of yet, but I think it is important I know as much as you will about this Harry." And so for the next two hours I told Professor Dumbledore the story of the boy who lived and his life up till I had disappeared. I then finished off with my plans to change the past for a better future.

"Remarkable." Was all that he had to say after the story was finished. "It is very brave of you wanting to change the past so that the weight of the world would not fall on your friends shoulders, but you do know that it is his destiny." I looked at him. "But sir although that is a big aspect of what I am doing, I also want to give those who have died as well as those who live a chance at life without war larking over their shoulder. Please." He heaved a sigh and smiled. "Very well Miss Granger. I will help in your quest. I shall be the voice to your course of action and follow your directions, but you must listen to my request. Is that understood?" I could not stop grinning Professor Dumbledore had agreed to help. "Anything Professor." He just chuckled. "Child you are too eager you have to first listen to my demands." I just nodded for him to continue. "I want you to finish you schooling first and I want you to at least have some form of childhood if not for just a little while. Make friends and let the weight off your shoulders. There is plenty of time for that later." "Sir, I will complete my schooling and I will make friends, but I cannot relax once the war is over will I be able to breathe without worry." He nodded once. "Very well Miss Granger welcome to Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry."
