I made a simple edit to the first chapter to explain how Harry came back in time. I hope I explained it better then before.
I also made a trailer for the story watch?v=hqX1cMaAr_c

The funeral for Cedric Diggory had been a horrible time for Harry. It didn't help that he had to go through it twice but he has a chance to save a lot of people now. He was not going to waste this chance. Harry remembered nearly seven years of the future. He wondered if anyone else did. Harry hoped that Hermione remembered. It would be hard to go through this without her.
Harry silently made his way through the ceremony. He didn't cry like last time but he sure as hell wanted to.
Looking around him he saw dead people sitting in the seats crying for Cedric. There was Neville and Luna sitting side by side very much alive though not together, not yet anyway. Neville looked quite tense and slid a protective arm over that of his future soul bond wife. Luna looked as serene as ever, though as she turned around to give Harry a reassuring smile she looked sadder then she had been the first time around at this funeral.
At the front speaking was Dumbledore, who was yet to be murdered by Draco. A few rows from the back Creevy brothers Colin and Dennis sat right beside one another protecting each other as always.
Even the Weasleys had made it in for the funeral.
Harry hated Ron and Ginny and he wasn't a hundred percent sure where Molly's loyalties lied. With or against Dumbledores. The rest of the family however , especially the twins, he loved them like a family.
Near the front Susan and Hannah sat beside each other with a protective arm around each other. In Harry's time they fought and died right next to each other up until the very end.
Nymphadora Tonks, sporting shoulder length black hair, in honour of the funeral sat next to Hagrid. Harry had heard that right after Minnie had been tortured nearly to death Hagrid had found her and brought her to St. Mungos and left the country to be with Olympe Maxime. Last he heard they had two young children.
Cho, Angelina and the Patil twins sat in one group. They were probably the group crying the most. The girls all felt Cho's pain, She had lost someone quite close to her.
Hestia Jones sat with her 18 year old sister in the front row. They had been fellow hufflepuffs, though in this time they still were. Loyalty would forever be in their hearts.
Now there was at least two true marauders still alive. Harry wanted the legacy of his father and friends to live on. Remus was at the funeral but Sirius couldn't make because he was on the run.
In the future Hermione and Harry hadn't had the chance to name their forms but given the chance they had wanted to become the next generation of Marauders.
Kingsley stood guard to Dumbledore. At this point in time Harry wouldn't know who the man was but even know his presence was confident inspiring and calming.
The teachers sat off to the side on the platform where Dumbledore was speaking. It was nice to see Poppy, Filius and Minerva alive and well. Harry just hoped that he could save them from the fate.
Finally Harry looked to his side to see someone holding his hand. It was his Hermione with a look of sadness and recognition in her eyes.
Did she remember? Harry certainly hoped she did, even though he hadn't planned on involving Hermione in the time stream but he didn't know if he could do it without her.
'It'll be alright Harry. I promise. We'll speak more later.' Hermione's voice echoed within Harry's mind.
If they were speaking telepathically it must mean that Hermione remembered and that their soul bond also travelled back with them. Telepathic communications was just another perk of a soul bond.
Harry nodded to Hermione. He couldn't even speak in their minds. It was hard holding all of his emotions in. With seeing everyone, including the love of his life alive and well was proving to much for Harry. As soon as the funeral ended Harry hurried out of the great hall.
He didn't notice a small group of people following him. Harry made it unto the seventh floor corridor ad the large brass doors appeared before him. He hurried inside and began to cry.
The room had created a simple lounge and right now Harry was sitting on one of the large comfy lounge couches.
"Harry." A quiet and beautiful voice spoke as she sat next to him. Harry looked up to see Hermione sitting right next to him.
Sitting on the couch across from them was Neville and Luna.
"Hermione what are you doing here?" Harry asked.
"Comforting my husband." Hermione said as she hugged the younger man by ten months.
Harry's head snapped up again.
"Does that mean...?" harry began to ask.
Hermione nodded.
"Yes Harry. I remember the whole war. From our soul bond to the birth of our daughter to my death in your arms." Hermione said as she kissed Harry on the forehead.
"I never saw my child because I didn't pay attention. Then I died." Luna said.
Everyone looked towards the pale blonde girl as she began to cry. Neville hugged her and kissed her on her cheek and forehead.
"Don't worry love. I got them before they got me." Neville said.
That's when Luna lightly punched Neville on the shoulder. Neville rubbed his shoulder even though it didn't really hurt.
"That was a stupid thing to do Nev! Harry and Hermione needed you!" Luna said.
"Sorry." Neville ducked his head as the shy Neville made an appearance.
"No. I'm sorry Neville. I'm just angry because we never got to see our child." Luna said.
"You guys remember as well then?" Harry asked.
"Yeah. At first it was a bit confusing cause we, well at least me only had the memories up until the moment at the funeral. Then it was like someone slapped me in the back and I suddenly had over seven years of memories that I hadn't had the moment before." Neville said.
"It happened the same way for me. It was quite a shock not to be pregnant anymore. Do you guys know what gender it was?" Luna looked pleading to the couple on the other couch with glistening eyes.
Harry and Hermione looked at each other. Harry was still shocked that not only did Hermione remember but also Neville and Luna did as well.
They also weren't sure if they should tell her. It might make her more hysterical. It was then, they decided, in their minds that they would tell her.
"A boy. We buried you and him in the same gravesite. The headstone read Simon John Neville Longbottom, like you wanted him named if it was a boy." Hermione said.
Luna smiled. As did Neville.
"Our boy." Neville said.
The group of four spent the next few moments in near silence with the exception of a rare sniffle or sob.
"Now here is a question. How did we return in the first place?" Neville asked.
"That would be me." Harry said.
Everyone looked at him intently.
"How?" Hermione asked. Even eight years into the future and dying hadn't stopped her thirst for more knowledge.
"After everyone died including our daughter." Harry began.
Hermione gave a sharp intake of breath. She hadn't know they would loose their daughter who had been alive at the time of her death,
"I began to do work at the ministry trying to repair the damage done during the war. I found a spell, a new time turner and time dust. After a few months I perfected the spell and used it. I saw a great number of me's starring at me and we seemed to merge all at once. Everything went balck and I literaly woke up to Dumbles speech." Harry said.
"Our... our daughter is dead. How?" Hermione asked.
"You sure you want to know?" Harry asked.
"Yes Harry. We need to stop it from happening again." Hermione said.
Harry's eyes began to water again. It was his fault his baby girl was gone. All his fault.
"It was my fault. When I went after the death eaters after you died I was captured by the last seven death eaters. They had captured Minnie and Lillian and brought them to Voldemort where I was being held. They tortured Minnie to death and then Bellatrix killed Lillian while Malfoy Jr. Held her upside down. After that I managed to break free of my binds and I killed them all including the big bad dark lord himself." Harry said.
Harry and Hermione were crying in each others arms.
"Do you think anyone else remembers?" Neville asked.
"No. I think it was only those I knew who were soul bonded." Harry said.
"That makes sense." Hermione said.
"Of course. The books on soul bonds say that the bonds overcomes death and time but I guess we never knew what that meant until now." Luna said.
Like Hermione she had a thirst for knowledge that like the soul bond had overcome death.
"What do we do now Harry? I assume you did this so that we could change the future and save others from their fate." Neville said.
"Well yeah though I only thought it would have been just me who travelled back. We need to start saving people. The next death is my godfather, so we have a year to plan what we are going to do." Harry said.
"There is a month left in the term and school year so we can get the DA back together." Luna said.
"We need to meet in private. I also need to find a way off of Hogwarts to go to the bank to claim my titles and money." Harry said.
"I am going with you." Hermione said. Harry nodded. He knew that there was no talking Hermione out of something once she had set her mind to it.
"Now who should we let know first?" Neville asked.
"The ones that can protect their minds from ol' dumb as doors like Minnie, Filius, Kingsley, Moody and Susan." Harry said.
"Then it's settled." Hermione said.
"We will start all of this tomorrow. I am really tired." Harry said as he yawned.
"Me too." Hermione said as she cuddled into Harry on the comfy couch.
"We can all sleep here and get to our dormitories in the morning." Neville said.
Just then two large beds appeared and four pairs of pajama's.
The four changed and each couple went to a different bed. They were much to young to be doing anything beyond cuddling even if their minds were in their early twenties.
The four fell asleep with the hopes of change tomorrow.
