Seventh Year Dorm, Gryffindor

(25th September, 1977)

The entire dormitory was silent, except a few snigger's that could be heard from the bed, to the farthermost left. That bed had the distinction of belonging to one Sirius Black. Sirius was lounging on his bed, a few snigger's escaping his mouth as he thought of the prank they were going to pull of in a few day's. He could just imaging Snivellus's face!

Sirius Black at the age of 17, was extremely handsome. Dark black hair, that was cut short. Gray eyes that were fathomless, the aristocratic, somewhat haughty Black good looks. He and his friend's were some of the best looking guy's in Hogwarts's, if he could that, in all modesty.

His musing's were interrupted when a house-elf appeared beside his be, with a POP. He startled, and nearly fell to the floor.

"Oh, Master Black! Me's so sorry! Oh, Tippy! Such a bad elf Tippy is!", Came the worried and sad voice of, what he could say, Tippy the house-elf.

"Oh, no! It's alright, no need to punish yourself.", Sirius consoled the distraught elf.

After sniffling a bit and comparing Sirius to Merlin, Tippy handed him a letter.

"This be from Headmaster, Dumb'do!" And with that he POP'd back, to god knows where. Sirius cracked up laughing and fell to the bed. This was the scene, the rest of the gang, namely James Potter, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew came to.

"I knew it. He has cracked. Finally!", Came the amused voice of Remus.

"Oh, you wound me, Moony!", Sirius moaned, with his hands on his heart.

Remus just rolled his eyes and went to his desk. James and Peter went to sit with Sirius. James also noticed the letter in his hands.

"Oi! Who's that from?",

"From Headmaster.", replied Sirius.

That caught their attention. They all met with Dumbledore, at least once in two months. That is if they were unfortunate to get caught. They only knew if as the kind headmaster. To contact a student so personally, that was surprising.

James and Sirius had also met with him during the summer, when he had come to James's house, in his capacity as the Supreme Mugwump. That was because they had had a run in with a few death eater's and they were forced to do magic in front of two muggle policeman. He had come to reprimand them.

"Well, go on! Read it!", Urged James.

"Okay, okay... Sheesh, so excited."

James looked abashed for a moment, before the look was replaced by a look of eagerness. Sirius just rolled his eyes and muttered, "Such a child."

Before James could respond, Sirius opened the letter and began to read it out loud.

Dear Mr. Black,

I would like to inform you that your presence as well as the presence of your three friend's, James Potter, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew is required by me. Please proceed to the seventh floor, to the left corridor and opposite the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy. There you will find a room, please await my arrival.

There will be some other people too. Please refrain from using any magic or words that would provoke a fight between you all. Come no later than 20:30.

Albus Dumbledore

They were all shocked. They were going to spend their evening with their idol! They were all requested by him! That was amazing. They all had heard about Albus Dumbledore and his secret order. It was all in the paper's, even thought there was no proof. They all wanted to join and today it would give them an opportunity, to ask him.

But one thing confused them. They were all very proud of the fact that they knew every nook and cranny of this school, what place Dumbledore had described did not exist.

"Maybe, it is a room only the Headmaster's are allowed in or know about?", Remus the voice of reason told them, as they were discussing that. They all were looking forward to the time.

Library, Hogwarts's

(25th September, 1977)

The Hogwarts's library was by far the largest collection of knowledge in Europe and perhaps the world. It was filled with countless number of books, tomes, scrolls. There was enough forgotten knowledge here, that it would take more than a millennial to read them all. There were tables and chairs scattered all around. The person we are looking for, was sitting on a table in the farthermost corner of the Library, hidden behind to bookshelves.

Her name was Lily Evans. She was most commonly hailed as the smartest muggle-born to come to Hogwarts in nearly a century. She was just completing her Transfiguration homework, with her friend Alice Prewett, when suddenly a letter appeared on the table.

Alice jerked back in her surprise and nearly toppled of. Lily had to turn her head to hide her sniggers. Alice just glared at her and huffed.

She grabbed the letter and read the name on it, Lily Evans.

"Hey, Lil's this is for you."

"Me?" Lily asked confused. Why did the mail not come thorough an owl?

She opened the letter and started to read it out loud;

Dear Ms. Evans,

I would like to inform you that your presence as well as the presence of your two friends, Alice Prewett and Frank Longbottom is required by me. Please proceed to the seventh floor, to the left corridor and opposite the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy. There you will find a room, please await my arrival.

There will be some other people too. Please refrain from using any magic or words that would provoke a fight between you all. Come no later than 20:30.

Albus Dumbledore

Alice and she were stupefied. The headmaster wanted to meet with them? That was incredible. Now you must be wondering why Frank Longbottom was here, well that was because even though he was in Gryffindor, he had more friend's outside the house. He was just cordial with him dorm mates, they being the Marauder's. He and Alice had been going out for nearly two years now.

Frank came into sight as he slumped in a chair beside Alice. He gave her a quick kiss and then noticed the amazed expression on their faces.

"What's got you two so excited?",

In reply he only got a letter thrown in his face. As he read the letter, his face also became amazed. He was going to meet Albus Dumbledore.

"Let's complete the assignment shall we? Then we can hurry up." Hearing this spurred on both the girl's.

They were so eagerly waiting for the time.

This phenomena happened in Hogwart's at two other place's, that being one secondary potion's lab and the other being Slytherin fifth-year dorm. Severus Snape and Regulus Black received those letter and were understandably shocked.

Yet, even they could feel that this was something momentous.

{-!-!-0-!-!-}

The time arrived and all the respective attendies began to move to their location. As was their luck, the Marauder's saw the Slytherins on their way to the door, before a fight could break out, Remus noticed a letter in both their hands and mention it too the rest of them.

"So, you two also got an invite?, Questioned James.

"Yes." Regulus curtly replied. Even though he was not looking at James, he was looking towards his brother, Sirius.

"Hey, Siri." Regulus whisphered.

That got a smile from Sirius and he was soon wrapped up in hug by his older brother. "How have you been, Reg?" Sirius asked, his voice muffled ans his mouth was pressed against Regulus head. In reply he just got a shrug.

The touching moment was disrupted by a sneering voice calling, "Now that this display is over, ;et us go shall we!" by Severus Snape.

Sirius was just about to retort when the door opened and they found Lily Evans, there. Surprise was written all over her face!

"So you are all the remaining guys?" She questioned.

"Remaining?" Remus asked.

"Yes, we all are waiting for you and the Headmaster." Lily replied. She stepped back and they all came in and took a good look at the occupant's and the room itself. The room was huge done in comforting colors, there were armchairs and sofa's and couches spread out in a circle, with a magnificent Oak table in the center, with a wrapped up square object.

They all came in and greeted each other and took their place. Marauder's at one corner, Lily and her friends at another.

"So, you brats are here too?" Came the gruff voice of Alastor Moody.

"Yes, sir!" James replied.

Suddenly the door opened and the three head of house came in accompanied by the headmaster. The heads took their seat's in one corner, then they all turned to look at the headmaster, silently asking him to say the reason.

The student's on the other hand, were in awe.

"Now you all must be wondering why I have called you here?" At this everyone nodded.

"Well to put it simply, we are here to read the future!"

At this there was a stunned surprise, until there was din of shouting and what not. Dumbledore just raised his hand's and motioned for the to be quite.

"We are going to be reading 11 years into the future, to be exact."

A/N: A cliffy. Just wait for another chapter, the reading begins and so does the explanation by the headmaster.
