Disclaimer: I do not own anything Harry Potter related. I only own the carefully schemed plot that totally rocks! Woohoo! Go me! And I'm using the journal idea again, so all credit for the journals goes to the person who thought of them.

A/N: Ok. I guess I'll update now. And now I will give some credit to all of my wonderful reviewers! I'll be switching POVs in this chapter, so yeah. Just guess.

Forward to Times Past

Chapter Four: The Headmaster

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Previously on Forward to Times Past...

Suddenly, she heard a grunting noise underneath her. She looked down and noticed that she had landed on someone. She immediately got up.

"I am so sorry." She said.

"It's ok." The person replied. She person stood up and Hermione gasped. She had landed on top of a boy. And not just any boy, she fell on top of...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remus Lupin. He looked exactly the same. With the sandy brown hair, the grey eyes and the scars. But one thing was definitely different about him. He looked twenty years younger than the last time he saw him. She must be in the past. THE PAST! Either that or he started using a new face rejuvenating potion. She must be in the past.

"Hi. I'm Remus Lupin. And you are...?"

"Oh! I'm Hermione Granger." She said using her real name. The Grangers didn't attend Hogwarts. They were Muggles. "I'm a new exchange student from Beauxbatons."

"Really? You don't sound French." Remus responded.

"Uhh...when I was ten, my family moved to France and I've lived there ever since. But I moved back to England to live with my uncle when my parents were murdered by Voldemort."

"Oh. I'm sorry."

"There's no need to be. It's not your fault." Hermione said. "Can you take me to see the headmaster?"

"Yeah. Follow me." They walked to Dumbledore's office in silence. Hermione was deep in thought. He parents really were murdered and he was the first person she told. When they got there, Remus walked up to the gargoyle and said, "Frog Spleen Crunch." (A/N: Isn't that a lovely name for a candy?) The gargoyle sprung to life, jumped aside and let them enter. They went on the revolving stairs and Remus knocked on the door.

"Enter." They heard from inside the door. They obeyed and walked into Dumbledore's office. He was sitting behind his desk eating lemon drops. He looked at Hermione curiously and said, "Mr. Lupin, if you could be so kind as to leave my office..."

"Of course." Remus obeyed and went outside. Before leaving, he said to Hermione, "I'll wait for you outside."

"Ok." She answered. After Remus left, Dumbledore spoke again.

"So, who are you?"

"I'm Hermione Granger. You might be wondering who I am. Well, I'm from the future. About twenty years from now. Do you know how I could get back?"

"Well, I will have to research. I will ask you to do the same. Until then, you are?"

"I am an exchange student from Beauxbatons. I moved to France when I was ten and I moved back here to live with my uncle because my parents were murdered by Voldemort. And that's about it." Hermione finished.

"Very well then. What house were you in?"

"Gryffindor, sir."

"Well then, you will be in Gryffindor. Have Mr. Lupin escort you and pretend that you have never been here before."

"Ok, sir. Thank you."

"Your quite welcome. Be on your way now."

Hermione left the room and found Remus sitting by the gargoyles looking as if he was about to fall asleep. It must be near Full Moon. Hermione thought. At the sight of Hermione, Remus awoke from his trance and got up.

"Are you ready?" He asked.

"Yep." She replied and he lead her to the Gryffindor common room.
