Chapter 51: Confused? Wait till I explain it.

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.


Jessie groaned and rolled over so she was laying on her belly, with what little strength she had she pushed herself up. Her head felt as if a ton of bricks fell on it. Draco was next to her helping her up. She looked up in to his eyes and regretted it. He looked mad, actually he was livid.

"You are an idiot, when someone one falls in to a veil you do not jump in after them." He said as he gripped her arm tightly. "You are acting like a foolish Gryffindor, disgrace to Slytherin, the damn hat should of placed you with your brother than at least I could understand your foolish, stupid behavior."

Jessie rolled her eyes, like he should talk, he himself has done foolish, stupid, Gryffindor behavior plenty of times in the past. "Sorry really didn't take the time to think about it." She turned to really look at him, and realized he looked younger. He also realized that she was also younger. She touched his face and looked at him. "It is like we are 16 all over again." Draco's hair was longer, his features less refined. Jessie's hair was wild curls that he used to love to bury his hands in, her figure thinner. She smiled at him, "I missed you." She said.

Just before Draco could ask what she meant Harry groaned, "Bloody Hell!!!"

Harry looked over at his sister and his best friend. "Damn." He imagined he was in a similar state as them, but his body hurt to much to care about that.

"An adventure. Just like I always wanted. You guys always got all the fun." Luna said. Also in her sixteen year old form. She was walking and looking at her surroundings in wonder, not affected by the impromptu trip through the veil. "I wonder were Tom is?" She said as she looked around until she found a body mass that was on the ground near a clearing.

He groaned and sat up clutching his head. His whole body ached. He slowly pulled himself up. "Where the hell are we."

Jessie started to laugh, "Why are you laughing?" Tom asked. Then he noticed their younger appearances. "Tell me that I am not in a sixteen year olds body." Panic was about to set in. He hated teenagers, he hated it when he was a teenager, so he prayed to any deity that he was not in fact a teenager.

Jessie laughed harder, "I am sorry but…."

"You are, and I cannot for the life of me find you intimidating anymore." Harry said, joining in his sisters laughter. Draco took a step back because he unlike the siblings was not stupid. Voldemort even at the age of Sixteen was dangerous and deadly.

"OW" They both cried out as tom sent a strong stinging hex at them. And he did not feel guilt now that he was apparently the same age as them.

"Damn Tom, take a joke. And who knew under that tense posture you are actually quiet hot." Jessie said, getting a nudge from Draco. "Well look at him Drake, and plus no one can compare to the Malfoy beauty." She knew how to stroke his ego.

"I am not tense I am just painfully aware, now where the hell are we."

"No clue." Harry said as he rubbed his sore shoulder.

"Well now what." Draco asked.

"No clue." Harry said again. Getting a irritated glare from both the Slytherin males.

"Better question why are we here?" Tom asked as he took in his surroundings.

"Because we are not there silly." Luna said as she skipped away further into the woods.

"I swear sometimes, sometimes I could just…." Voldemort made choking motions with his hands. She was the reason he was here now. Pushing him threw the damn veil, it pained him to admit he could never hurt her, but he wished a fate worse than death on her at the present moment.

Jessie smiled as she went to follow the bane of Tom's existence.

Couple of hours later they were no were near answering their questions, And Draco was starting to complain. "I am not going any farther." Draco sat on the large rock and crossed his arms the look in his eyes daring anyone to say otherwise. Unfortunalty for Draco, Tom was not in the mood for anything.

"Draco if you do not get off that rock and start walking I swear to Merlin that your worst nightmare will look like a pleasant dream when I am done with you." Tom spoke harshly as he grabbed Draco by the collar and shoved him to get him moving again.

"Bloody Hell Tom, this is going nowhere." Draco said dragging his feet.

"Yes and sitting on the rock is the answer to all our problems." Tom said annoyed.

"Why don't we just appartate to the Manor." Draco asked clearly annoyed. Tom pinched the bridge of his nose, what ever patience he did have was completely gone. Harry and Jessie seen this coming and they took a step back. Apparently Draco was not that smart.

"OW."

"We just went through a veil, we have no clue where we are, let alone if there is manor to go to. And believe me it is not a chance I am willing to take. Because I am rather fond of my body parts where they are."

"Tom, hurting them is not the answer. Not stop it and follow, we are almost there."

Tom huffed in annoyance, this day was getting worst by the second.

SECOND LATER

They were surrounded by Aurors. Joy, Harry thought. But one face stood out among the others Sirius.

"Harry?" he was shocked to say the least.

"Sirius! What the hell." Harry said, unsure of how to precede.

"I got it from here boys, it is just my cousin false alarm, I am going to bring them back home." Sirius said, the men behind him started to mutter about false alarms and foolish teenagers. Jessie had to put a hand on Toms shoulder before he did anything stupid, he bristled at the foolish teenager comment, no one ever called him a foolish teenager, even when he was a teenager.

When it was all clear Sirius looked over at Harry, "What are you doing here?"

Harry was at a loss of what to say, his godfather was supposed to be dead. But then again they fell threw the veil and ended up here, so what is to say that Sirius didn't do the same. But non the less he was still confused and did not know how to precede in this conversation.

"Uh…." was all that came out.

"The veil did you come through the veil." Sirius asked.

"Sirius." Harry couldn't help he was overwhelmed with emotions as he hugged his godfather for the first time in years.

"Wow look have you have grown." Sirius said as he stepped back.

"Well, we actually been slightly deaged, I am twenty two now."

"Wow."

"Sorry to ruin this cheerful reunion but would you mind explaining where the hell we are?" Tom said.

Sirius turned his attention towards the angry teenager. "Alternate reality."

Everyone had to let everything sink in for a bit.

"Yeah, it was strange when I first came here too. My counter part was dead and Dumbledore just called it a mistaken identity and I have been living here since. You three are dead too. He pointed towards Harry, Draco and Luna. "Harry the Dark Lord killed you instead of you surviving, Draco was killed as a punishment to Lucius about ten years ago and Luna never had a chance, your family was attacked in a raid before you were even born."

Harry was unsure of how to respond to all of this. "What about my parents."

Sirius gave a bleak smile, "They survived."

Harry felt better knowing somewhere they were alive and breathing.

"So how is the war going here." Jessie asked, wondering.

"And you are."

"Jessie…."

"You found her, I am so glad that you have your sister with you." Sirius said as he forced Jessie into a hug. "I haven't seen you since you were a baby. You do not exist here." Sirius turned his attention towards Tom, "And you are."

Tom smirked a evil smirk. "Tom Riddle, you might know me better as Lord Voldemort."

"Excellent. I was hoping that Severus would take me seriously."

Tom scowled, pissed because his name did not strike fear like it used to, specially to stupid Gryffindors.

"Your counter part is still alive and kicking and let me tell you is he a terror, much worst than you. Everyone here lives in constant fear. He is close to completing his goals."

Tom snorted not liking that this other Tom seemed to exceeded where he didn't, but then he caught Harry and Jessie's eye and he sighed, He doubted his counter part ever felt what he felt when he looked at them knowing that they were changed and that he helped them with their training, education and much to his disgust personal problems.

Harry sat down, trying to take this world in. "Oh no you do not Harry, this is not our home. We have no responsibility to it, we are not going to take on the Dark Lord. Are you insane."

"I did not even say anything."

"You don't have to it is written on your face. No. that is all I am going to say."

"My parents are here."

"and it would be siding with Dumbledore."

"No we would make our own side."

"Never, the dark lord would find out and we would be gunned down. Tom tell him that now please."

"Actually I am kind of curious about this world. I say we check it out, plus we have no way back with out the resources." Tom said, "But siding with Dumbledore will never happen, just letting you know that right now."


"This is crazy." Draco said for the tenth time. They were at order headquarters. Deep within enemy territory. Nothing about this could be good. "Why are we doing this."

"Draco Honey, shut up before tom loses his patience." Jessie said.

"shut up? are in the house that is head quarters for the order, the same order that we fought against."

"Draco, You need to stop panicking."

"Panicking, this is not panicking. This is just culture shock, just wait until the shock wears off, then you will see panicking."

"Is he always this….dramatic." One of the Weasley twin said.

It was difficult to see one of the twins, or anyone they used to be friends with here, knowing that they knew nothing about them. But no one got a chance to say anything because Sirius opened the door and signaled them to come in.

The tension in the room was thick. Harry skimmed the room and saw many people that he knew before he switch sides, many he fought with. Then there was Remus, who looked pensive about the whole situation, sitting next to the werewolf though was a couple that Harry had only seen in picture and only heard about in stories. His heart started to beat faster and his mind started to cloud, he wasn't expecting to see them. Draco came up and put a supporting hand on his shoulder. Lily his mother stood, only creating more tension. "Oh my, Harry." Tear welled up in her eyes as she looked at him. Shocked at what she was seeing she took a step around the table closer to him. "I know I am not your actual mother and you are not my actual son, but I do not care. You have grown so much." she took a unsure step toward him and wrapped her arms around him.

Jessie stood watching her brother and their mother. Her mother didn't know about her, and it was best this way. She stepped closers to Tom and he let her rest her head on his chest. He was beginning to think that this was a bad idea. The backdoor opened and in walked Dumbledore along with Severus and Lucius. Tom eyes flared in anger as he watched the traitors take a seat. But according to Sirius his reign here was worst than it was in his world and if it was really bad he could see Lucius switching sides. He wrapped his arms around Jessie when her breathe hitched from seeing her father. Dumbledore eyed them curiously, obviously not trusting them.

Lucius was eyeing his son, his son died at the age of six. It was a punishment for one of his failures, but there was no pleasing the man. So now looking at Draco he felt pain stabbing at his heart. But before he could dwell on it Dumbledore spoke.

"We find ourselves in a rather unique position. One that I have no idea how to….to sort out. Sirius was a easy to integrate him back into this world, but for the five of you I have no plans on how to continue. But why don't we start with introductions. I am Dumbledore."

"We know who are." Draco replied scathingly. He might have agreed to come he, willing or unwilling, but there was no way in hell he was going to be nice to this man, ever.

"Well than my boy why don't you all introduce yourselves." Draco brislesked at the comment of being called boy.

"Draco Malfoy." He said through clenched teeth, he stood to his full height looking every bit of a Malfoy, Poised, calm, and proud. And Lucius could tell he spent his whole life being taught the ways of being a Malfoy and what the name carried.

"Ohh my turn. I am Luna Lovegroove." She smiled brightly, like she wasn't in an awkward position in another world.

"Harry Potter." gasp were heard in the room, Idiots Tom thought seeing as Lily basically said who he was. Harry turned his attention to Jessie wondering what she was going to say.

"Jessie, Jessie Andrews." not really sounding sure of herself. Many people noticed the tone to her voice and knew she was hiding something.

Draco whipped his head around and she pleaded with him with her eyes to be quiet. She didn't exist in this world, no sense disturbing her mother and fathers lives with the shocking news.

"Tom Riddle." when he spoke the name he got the desired effects. Wands were aimed at him quick, he gave a little chuckle at the actions as he brought out his wand, he felt Jessie do the same. Draco came closer wand drawn glaring at everyone else.

Harry sighed, knowing that Tom did this on purpose and was in his element of causing chaos, seriously you can't take Dark Lords anywhere without them causing a scene. Dumbledore slowly stood. "I thought as much." he also slowly drew his wand a tad bit unsure. Harry stepped out of his mothers embrace.

All eyes were on him as he took stance by Tom, showing everyone in the room who he supported and were his loyalties lied. "Dumbledore I suggest that you put down your wand."

"Harry you have no clue what this man is capable of." Dumbledore said to Harry.

"No you have no clue what I am capable of, if you do not put down your wands I will show you. What ever he is here, he is not in our world." Harry said.

"SO he is not a ruthless murderer or is he not a psychotic maniac." Moody asked.

"He is neither." Harry said. Jessie couldn't help it she snorted, then laughed. Tom's patience broke. So he hit her over the head with his wand. "OW"

"You annoying little girl can you for one minute stay serious. I know that you are incapable of controlling yourself but could you at least contain the side of you that thinks everything is a big joke, too much time with those twins, when we get back home I forbid you to spend time with them."

Now a annoyed Jessie turned around, "Forbid, you really cannot forbid me to do anything. First you are not my father, two I am twenty two and you are not the boss of me, so you and your forbidding controlling ass can just fuck off." It was a lot easier to tell the Dark Lord off when he was in the body of a sixteen year old.

"CONTROLLING!" The Dark Lord exploded, "Trust me I am anything but controlling, the three of you have been running around answering to no one since the moment you all became friends, so do not tell me controlling, because if I had my way you would of learned how to behave."

"Yes because you have been such a good role model." Toms wand hand twitched but he controlled himself and let out a string of curses in Parseltongue. Harry laughed hard at what was said.

Jessie glared at her brother, "What did he call me." she demanded to know but Harry just shook his head, never in a million years would he tell her.

Jessie being in a teenage body, so therefore going through all the hormones and emotions of said sixteen year old stomped hard on the Dark Lords foot.

He bit back a curse, and grabbed his foot. Glaring at her not believing she actually did that. "When we get home I swear to Merlin that….."

"You have no clue, admit. Big bad Dark Lord lost his touch." she laughed, "Maybe you should go through therapy, you seemed to have lost your mojo."

Harry and Draco could not help it anymore they fell to the floor in laughter. Jessie soon joined them, the Dark Lord glared at them. He hated this body, he hated this world and right now he hated them. Childish yes, but he hated none-the-less

"fine, fine don't take me seriously but you will when I tell Narcissa about all of this."

Laughter stopped, Draco's mom, who was like a mother to them all, had one main rule: Respect your elders, and even though Tom was currently in a six teen year old body he still was to be respected. When ever she was home she enforced that rule to the core that the twins rather take a vacation then refrain from insulting the Dark Lord and Lucius. So it was a true threat, she would more than likely lecture them for hours about the reason you should respect your elders and then set them up with some punishment and then laid on the guilt trip that she and only she could do to perfection.

"You evil man." Jessie muttered. Tom just smirked. Jessie mutter some more about tattle tale dark lords, since this was not the first time he has done this.

The rest of the order watched in wonder, they to them just seemed like a bunch of teenagers, even Tom. They lowered there wands awhile ago.

"Okay since that is settled, the next question is where they are going to stay." Dumbledore said.

"They can stay with us." James for the first time spoke up. Harry and turned and looked towards the man, he was going to stay with his parents.
