Chapter Thirteen

Harry watched as Emily paced around, every now and then she would turn to the portrait and say something and every time she would be wrong.

"Is it Bravery?" Emily asked.

"That was last weeks," The fat lady said, rolling her eyes.

"Think," Emily muttered," Is it Mischief?"

"Yes," The fat lady said," About time."

The fat lady swung open and they quickly went inside. Harry began to go up the boys steps when he noticed that Emily wasn't following him anymore. He turned around to see that she was sitting down in a chair fast asleep. He rolled his eyes and walked over to her.

"Emily," Harry said, tapping her shoulder," This is no time to fall asleep."

"Go on without me," Emily said, not opening her eyes," I'll wait here and keep watch."

Harry rolled his eyes again, but went up the boys stairs. He went up to the dorm he knew was James's. He creeked the door opened and looked inside. To his shock, they were not there. He entered the room and started to search James's trunk, but his dairy wasn't in there.' This is just great,' Harry thought,' I wonder what's happening in the future?'

Future

The sun was just barely coming up when Moony, McGonnagal, and Emily went into the whomping willow, followed by a very angry looking Lily.

"You just had to do that," Lily said," You almost killed the whomping willow."

"If you only knew how many kids have died because of this whomping willow then you would know why we did it," Moony said.

"But," Lily said, looking at McGonnagal," Ain't there a rule about not going near the tree? Dumbledore told us at the beginning of every year."

McGonnagal looked down at Lily with a shocked look on her face.

"Dumbledore has been dead for years," McGonnagal said," He was killed by you-know-who."

"No he wasn't, "Lily said," Snape killed him."

"Snape is dead too," Emily said, looking down at Lily," I killed him."

Lily opened her mouth, but quickly closed it when she realized that things must of happened differently.' How much can one dairy change?' Lily thought,' Well, it can change alot if Emily killed Snape and Voldemort killed Dumbledore. What about Harry?'

"Do know a kid named Harry Potter?" Lily asked.

Moony, Emily, and McGonnagal stopped walking and looked at her in shock.

"How did you know him?" Moony asked, looking both ways.

"He is my friend," Lily said.

"But," Emily said," He is under ground."

"What do you mean?" Lily asked, looking a bit worried.

"He died when he was just a baby," McGonnagal said," Lily and James faught hard, harder then you-know-who thought they would. They had put all their trust in Sirius not to tell where they were, but with Snape on their side. Snape gave Sirius a truth potion and Sirius told them, then they killed him."

"What about Peter?" Lily asked, as they began to walk again.

"Dead," Emily said.

"Neville?" Lily asked.

"Died a year ago in a fight that happened here," Moony said.

"Molly and Arthur?"

"Both alive, but in hiding like everyone else," Emily said.

"Fred? George? Percy? Bill? Charlie?"

"Slow down," Emily said," Fred and George opened a joke shop and died for it. Percy is Ministry of Magic. Bill got killed in a fighter with a death eater. We don't know where Charlie is."

"What about Ron and Ginny?"

"You ask lots of questions," Moony said," Ron died in his first year and Ginny died in her first year here too."

"Well, is Filch still alive?"

"He died of old age," McGonnagal said.

"Hagrid? Filtwick? Mad-Eye? Tonks? Frank Longbottom? Alice Longbotton?"

"Alice and Frank are at St. Mungos as healers," Emily said," Hagrid died a few years ago, same as Filtwick, Mad-Eye, and Tonks."

"What about-"

"Girl be quiet," Moony said, finally getting annoyed of all these questions.

They had entered the shriking shack. Remus was up in a room and had heard them coming. He went downstairs, only to have wands pointed at him. Remus looked at Lily, who gave a small smile.

"Where are the other?" Remus asked.

"They were lucky," Lily said, walking over to Remus," They got away. I hope they fix this, because this place sucks."

Remus gave a small smile and looked up at the others, who still had their wands pointed at him.

"You must come back to the castle," Moony said.

"Okay," Remus said," But first you have to tell me what the heck happened to Hogsmeade?"

"It was destroyed," Emily said," Now let's go."

Remus and Lily followed the other out of the shriking shack, down the tunnel, and out of the whomping willow. Remus didn't look too good when they got out of the whomping willow. Lily knew they were running out of time.
