Harry Potter and The Journey to the Past Chapter II

Harry Potter and The Journey to the Past
Chapter II

The journey through the time tunnel was like using Floo Powder and Port Key at the same time. Harry felt being spinned and with a jerk he fell to the ground.
" Ouch!!! " Harry fell in a corridor with Firebolt next to him. Not very long after that, Hedwig also fell next to him.
" Hedwig!! Are you following me ? "
She hooted and stared at him with a please-don't-take-me-on-that-kind-of-trip-again-I-prefer-to-fly-thank-you look.
" Did you know that I was going to have this kind of journey so you followed me ? "
She answered with her I-do-know-you-would-go-far-so-I-follow-you-but-I-never-guess-that-you-went-with-that-kind-of-way look.
Harry smiled. " You are a very smart owl. "
She hooted happily.
there was sound of footsteps that made Harry gasped. Someone was standing right behind him.
" James, what are you doing here? " It was a voice of a girl.
Harry turned, in front of him stood a beautiful girl about his age. Her hair was red and wavy. Her eyes were green like a pair of emeralds. Harry felt like have seen her before.
" James, I am talking to you!! " said her again, waking Harry from his thought.
" Ja..James ??? "
She started to get mad, " James Potter, don't tell me that you are drown in your own pranks and can't even remember your own name. I won't laugh. ha..ha.. " Suddenly she paused " You're not James ! "
" I am Harry.... You called me James ??? "
She seemed become embaressed " I am so sorry. I thought you are James. Both of you look alike except for your green eyes and.. that lightning bolt scar... "
" It's OK. "
" Lily, arent't we suppose to have Transfiguration class ? " Said someone behind them. Four boys approached them. They are also looked like sixteen years old.
" You never want to get late for classes, don't you ? " The one who talked looked just like Harry except for his brown velvet eyes.
The four of them stunned as they saw Harry. The second boy stared at him interestedly.
" James, why didn't you tell us that you have a twin brother.? " He cried.
" But I don't have one, Sirius.. " said the first boy, James Potter.
The second one. Sirius Black, stared at the girl, Lily Evans, asking about Harry.
" Don't ask me. I also thought he was James. " She turned to the third boy, which was tall and pale " What do you think, Remus? "
The boy was Remus Lupin. He smiled and said " Congratulation James. Now you have a twin brother. "
" WHAT ??? Two James Potter, one can make this school filled with pranks, two will make Hogwarts ruin. " Sirius giggled.
James sniffed angrily. " Padfoot !! Moony !! And how about you Peter. Do you have any comments about this boy too?? "
The four of them turned to the last boy. He was small and rather fat.
" I think we should ask Dumbledore about this. " he squeaked.
Sirius eyes widened. " Great!! This is the first time you can say something right. "
The last boy, Peter Pettigrew, looked pleased with the praise.
Meanwhile, Harry stood there, frowned. James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and this girl, Lily Evans. So he was in the past, when his parents were still studying in Hogwarts. And he was in ...Hogwarts.
" Mum.. Dad..." He murmured.
Lily realized it, " What did you say ? "
" No.. nothing.."
James approached him and asked " May I ask you your name? "
" I am Harry Po... " Harry paused. Is it OK to mention my name is Harry Potter. So he mentioned other name " I am Harry Rufford. "
" Harry, I am... " Before James finished his sentence, Harry already cut it.
" James Potter. " Then he pointed to the others and mentioned their names. " Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Lily Evans and Peter Pettigrew. "
All of them suprised.
" How do you know our name? "asked James with a shock expression in his face.
Before Harry answered, Sirius already giggled. " I think Profesor Trelawney have a rival now. "
James hit him with his elbow so hard that made Sirius cursed him.
" Ignore him. Say, would you like to tell me how do you know our names ? "
" Well, I ..think I cannot tell you. But can I meet Dumbledore ? "
James turned to his friends, and all of them nodded.
" Come on, we'll take you to his office. " said Lily.
Harry grabbed his Firebolt and put it in his waistbag ( do you still remember that waistbag, All-things-eater-waistbag ? ). Hedwig was still perched on his shoulder, and that made Harry a bit difficult to move, so Lily told him to send her to the Owlery.

They arrived in front of the gargoyle statue. And all of them stood there, didn't know what to do.
James talked first. " Well, anyone knows the password? "
Noone knew, so Harry stepped forward. " Can I try ? "
James stepped aside, felt confuse. How can this boy know the password?
But Harry didn't know the password, he only knew that the password was the name of junkfood, and what was it? So he just mentioned every name of the sherbet and candy.
" Sherbet Lemon " Nothing happened " Chocolate Frog, Berty Bott's Every Flavour Beans, Cocroach Cluster "
James and Sirius stared at each other and exploded in laughter, the same with Lupin. While Lily dropped her jaw.
" Custard Cream.. " The statue sprang and jumped to the side.
All of them paused and laughed again, louder than before.
Harry grinned " First Sherbet Lemon, and then Cocroach Cluster and now Custard Cream. Dumbledore sure has a great sense of humour. "
Lupin was the first one to stop laughing, he asked the others to stop laughing and went to the office.
All of them climbed the stairs, still giggling. Arrived at the office door, Lupin knocked it. " Sorry, Profesor. There is something very important we must tell ytou. "
The door opened, Dumbledore stood in front of them. His half moon glasses shone as bright as his eyes. " Hi Lupin, oh you're with your friends. Come in. "
They entered the office. Dumbledore asked them to sit while his eyes fixed to Harry.
" Who is this young one ? Your twin, James. "
James fell to his seat and shouted. " Why do everyone keep telling me that he is my twin. I don't have one. "
" I am sorry Profesor. Can I talk to you.. in private. ? "
Dumbledore nodded. " I am very sorry, boys and girls. I must speak to James' twin in private. Don't you have class to attend ? "
Lily's face became pale. " Oh no!!! Transfiguration!!!! We forgot it. "
Dumbledore smiled. " Well, in that case. Tell Minerva that you're late because I called you. "
" Thank you, Profesor. " said all of them in the same time and then ran downstairs.

" So, what is it? Hmm.. you haven't introduce yourself. " Dumbledore started the conversation.
" I am Harry.., Harry Potter. "
" Potter? Do you have any relationship with James? "
" Well, I am his son.. in the future. "
" Future ? Do you mean that you came from the future? "
Harry started to introduce himself and why he came there. Once he finished, Dumbledore looked a bit confuse.
" Interesting.. The chain which bind past and present that can open the time tunnel. It won't happen once in 100000 years. But this bind also invite an evil plan. And then here you are, trying to protect this time from Voldemort's evil plan. Indeed, Harry. I am very understand about this situation. I'll help. In this case, maybe even Voldemort don't know that his plan will make a big disaster. "
" Thank you, Profesor. "
" For the time being, maybe you should become a student here. So you can protect your parents from Voldemort. And I think you can get closer to them, since you never met them before."
Harry nodded.
Suddenly a bird flew to his shoulder and put his beautiful head to Harry's arm, right at the place where Voldemort had torn with a blade. The bird was scarlet and gold with long beautiful feather.
" Fawkes. "
Fawkes shed his tears at Harry's wounded. It healed slowly.
" I am sure he seldom heals your wound in the future. Thanks for your trust to me, Harry. I really apreciate it. " said Dumbledore.
Harry grinned. " Well he did. I don't even remember how many time he had done that. But since I fought a basilisk in a secret chamber..... "
" Wait, Harry. I hope you don't tell me or anyone else about the future. "
Harry paused. " I guess you're right. "
" I'll tell Minerva about you. You can join the marauders at lunch. You're a Gryffindor, right? "
Harry nodded.

At lunch, Profesor McGonagall introduced Harry to the Gryffindors.
" This is Harry Rufford, he'll join the sixth year. He is a new student from abroad. I hope you can help him. "
Once Mcgonagall had gone, James pulled Harry to sit right next to him.
" Hi, my twin brother. So you're a new student here. Welcome to Gryffindor. "
Sirius grinned. " Since when did you admit him as your twin ? "
" Since now. Why can't I? He is really look alike me. ..And we do have the same sense of humour. ..so..."
" So you make him as your twin. " answered Lupin quickly.
James grinned.
Suddenly there was a strange loud voice from Slytherin table.
" .lleh s'tI .srettoP owt evah ew woN !!!tahW " It was Severus Snape.
Harry recognized his voice. Confuse, he stared at him. " What did he say ? "
But his new friends couldn't answer. They're already fell to the floor, laughing.
Only Lily can answer his question. " I guess the Reverse-talk Potion we had given to him this morning still works. " She whispered in her laugh.
Harry remembered all of things inside his waistbag, and grinned broadly. " Pranks... "

After lunch, they had History of Magic ( Harry had the same time-table with James and Lily from Dumbledore, along with the books and his school things. ).
And as usual, History of Magic meant Hog-nap time ( Hogwarts nap time ). All the students were falling asleep, except Harry. He could neither concentrate to the lesson nor sleep. His eyes kept looking at James and Lily, as if he was trying to fill his memory only about both of them. But that wasn't the only reason, he also really wanted to show everything he had in his waistbag to his new friends. When Fred and George gave all of that things, he couldn't figure up what would he do with those things. But now he knew.

After dinner ( still full with laughter ang giggle since Snape still talked in reversed way ), they walked to the Gryffindor tower.
" You should see McGonagall's face. She really didn't know what Snape was talking about.. " James giggled.
" Still not match with Snape reaction when the potion started to work. " said Sirius.
" Yeah, he kept repeating what he said. He thought there was something wrong with his ears. " Lupin continued.
" How long will the potion lasted ? I think Madam Pomfrey doesn't have the antidote. " Said Lily, muttering the password to the Fat Lady ( Holy Bell ).
They climbed through the hole to the Common Room and took theis favorite seats, next to the fireplace.
" So, what'll we do to the Slytherin tomorrow? " asked Lily.
" Blast their table with Dungbombs. " said Lupin.
" It's common. We need something new. "answered James.
" Paint Lucius Malfoy's hair into pink or orange. "
" Already did it last year. "
" How about changing them into a canary? " asked Harry suddenly.
All of them turned to Harry with identical evil grin. " How ? " asked all of them in the same time.
Harry grinned and pulled a tube of Canary cream given by Fred and George.
" If you eat it, you'll be tranformed into a canary for.. an hour....maybe. "
" Great!!! So we just mix it to the Slytherin's food, and.. " said Sirius.
" We'll have heavenly pleasure. " James continued. " Who'll go to the kitchen this night? "
" Since this is Harry's idea. Let him go with you, James. "
" So, what do you think, Harry ? "
" Deal ! " Harry answered with a grin in his face.
" Whooo...hooooo..... "
" What's that ? " Harry looked for the source of the sound. It came from his waistbag.
" Whooooooooo.......hoooooooo....hooooooo "
Harry stunned, " Oh no. It can't be... "
Without any warning a tiny owl jumped from his waistbag, and started to fly zig-zag.
Harry jumped and catched it. " PIG!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE ??!!!!! " Harry shouted to that owl.
Pig hooted happily without giving any attention to Harry's anger.
Lily grinned. " Harry that's not a pig but an owl. "
Sirius took Pig from Harry. " Yap, Lily's right this is an owl. " He said in a serious tone.
" Not that. He is Pig, Pigwidgeon. That's his name. " explained Harry.
Sirius stared at Pig ( He was still hooting happily ). " You have a funny name. " he chuckled.
" I thought your owl was that snowy one. The one which was perching on your shoulder when we first met. "
" She's Hedwig. She is mine. This one belongs to Ron, my friend. He must've been playing in my waistbag and taken here accidentally. "
While Harry and Lily were talking about Pig, James was staring at Harry thoughtfully.

That night, the Gryffindors left the Common Room one by one until only James and Harry were left. James took a cloak from his robe, Invisibility Cloak.
" Come on, Harry. "
Harry also took his Invisibility Cloak from his waistbag ( It was one of his things that Ron had put in his waistbag, beside the Marauders Map. ).
" Hey, you also have one. " said James.
Harry grinned and put on his cloak, followed by James.
James whispered. " We meet in front of the fruit painting. You know the place ? "
" I know. "
The plan worked very well. They easily sneaked to the kitchen and mixed the Canary Cream to the food. And then they went back to the tower and climbed to the dormitary. Sirius and Lupin haven't slept yet. They waited impatiently.
" How is it? " asked Sirius once they entered the dorm.
" Why both of you haven't slept yet? " asked James.
" Well, we want to know how the plan is going. Unlike Peter, he snored right after he touched the bed, we can't sleep. So tell us. " said Lupin.
" Well, what must we tell you ? We went to the kitchen, mixed the cream, and get back here. After stealing some pies of course. What do you expecting? "
Sirius grinned. " I was hoping you have an interesting story, like you met Filch or Mrs. Norris. "
" So you were expecting we were catched by them. "
".. Not, really.. "
" Better get back to sleep. " said Lupin.
" Yeah right, so we won't miss the show tomorrow. " James climbed to his bed. The others also did the same.
Harry's bed was next to James. He heard James muttered softly before he snored.
" Harry you're very strange... As a new student, you know too much about Hogwarts...... "

Authors' Note

Well, this is the second chapter. I did this in a hurry, cause Ferrum can't wait any longer for the second part. Imagine she kept asking and asking. So, Ferrum this is for you and please stop that 'You owe me chapter eight'. Oh yeah, I think I do really need a beta reader. So if anyone want to be my beta reader, please e-mail me or tell me in the review. Well Lizzy said that someone already made a story about Harry going back in time but I think it wasn't like this one. So if there are any similarity, consider it is only a coinsidence. Sorry again to make you read my grammatical errors and misspellings. Anyway thanks for the reviews, I love reviews.
