All of a sudden their in 1995, with now idea how to get out. Will they manage?

1. The Joker

"James!" Victoire yelled out to her younger cousin, over the sound of a baby crying. "What did you do now?" James came into the living room where a tired Victoire Weasley was holding a crying baby.

"Nothing!" James said defiantly.

"Andy never cries unless you do something bad," Victoire said fiercely. "What was it?" James didn't answer. Victoire was about to yell at him, but Teddy walked into the room.

"What did James do now?" he asked wearily. He took Andy from Victories' arms and rocked her.

"I didn't do anything," James said.

"Maybe Andy's predicting that you'll do something bad," Teddy said, smiling. Hearing the ruckus, the rest of the cousins walked into Harry's living room. Rose Weasley was holding a sleeping two year old girl with pink hair, and Albus Potter was holding a two year old boy with blue hair. Teddy smiled at the sight of his sleeping twins. "Al, Rosie, can you just out the twins in the stroller?" he asked, as if he hadn't had sleep for days. "We'll go for a walk later." Rose and Albus happily obliged, as Roxie, Fred, Lilly, Hugo, Dominique, Louis, Lucy, and Molly took seats in the Living room, all catching up on their summer plans. Andy had drifted asleep. Victoire moved the stroller nearer to her cousins, and plopped down on the huge couch. Teddy sat next to her, and Rose, Albus and James sat on the floor surrounding them.

"Hey Fred," James said to his cousin, and best friend. "Look at this." He pulled out a small necklace with an hourglass on it. Teddy and Victoire were too busy watching their kids to notice anything. Fred laughed as James put a charm on the necklace. Louis noticed what they were doing and moved closer.

"Care to have some fun boys?" Louis asked, smirking.

"You're not actually gonna use it James?" Fred asked, a bit nervous.

"No, I'm just gonna give Vicky a fright. And it's not like it works, it's just an old relic," James said, rolling his eyes. Fred let out a breath. He may be a huge prankster, but even he had his limits.

"James Sirius Potter!" Rose whispered fiercely. "What on earth are you doing?"

"Just having a bit of fun," James replied casually. "I'm not going to use it, it doesn't work." Rose bit her lip, and continued her conversation with Albus. All of a sudden Victoire let out a small shriek.

"James!" she cried, but not loud enough to wake her youngest daughter. "What do you think you're doing!"

"It doesn't work," James said, exasperated. "Watch." He spun the hourglass, Victoire shrieked, there was a flash of light, and then darkness.
