ANGELUM MEUM

by: tweety-src-clt9

Eleven-year-old Harry Potter fidgeted on the seat of the compartment he and his new friend, Hermione Granger, occupied. His uncle dropped him early at King's Cross and he was so scared that all that he had seen at Diagon Alley with Hagrid was just a figment of his imagination.

He tried to look for Platform 9 and ¾ but to no avail. And then, a miracle happened. Hermione and her parents arrived and his new friend who clearly very smart showed him how to get to the right platform.

"Harry?"

"Yes, Hermione?"

"Do you want to see me do a spell?"

"Er, sure," he shrugged but deep inside he was so eager to see what she could do.

Hermione took a deep calming breath, pointed his wand on his irritating lightning bolt scar and said, "Avada Kedavra!"

oOOOOOo

Hermione Granger woke up to blinding light before she realized that she was in King's Cross Station again but it was an ethereal version at that. The last thing she could remember was casting the killing curse on Harry's scar just like the old Harry's instructions on the letter he left for her in his will during the original timeline.

Suddenly, as if the mist covering the station cleared up, Harry Potter, the version of him in his forties who sacrificed his life and magic to pour power into her dying body, smiled brightly at him.

"You did it, Hermione! You came back in time! And, by killing the Horcrux in my scar, you've bonded our souls in ways that no one could ever sever," Harry opened his arms and she eagerly ran into them.

"Oh, Harry! Why did you do that? Why did you sacrifice your life for me?" She cried into his chest.

"I needed to do it, Hermione. I needed to let you live so you could go back in time and together, we can fix things." He whispered into her ear.

"How did you know about all this?" She looked into his emerald green eyes that were sparkling with magic as she pulled away.

"Well, when Draco and I traveled to the ICW, one of the archives had this book on Soul Magic. It called me you see. There, I found a spell, Angelum Meum. It's the soulmate revelation spell. Since the symptoms of your illness matched with the ones with the side-effect of soulmates not getting together, I tried to do the spell. I expected to see Ginny but instead, I saw you. Draco did it and turns out, he's meant to be with Ginny… Long story short, I investigated things and it turns out, Snape potioned us so that he could get his final revenge on a Potter… I talked to his portrait and it seems he doesn't want me, a Potter, to end up marrying the Brightest Witch of the Generation again. So, he dosed you and Ron, me and Ginny… Anyway, I did it to save you, Hermione. But along the way, I realized that if you could find a way to go back in time, we can do so much more… We can set things right," Harry explained.

"Okay, Harry… Tell me all that you know," Hermione pulled Harry to sit on one of the benches. They needed to make plans before they returned to their first year at Hogwarts...

A/N: This is a snippet of a scene I had in mind for Angelum Meum. This is my second idea for Quantum Bang. I already have a complete outline but this story is too long and complicated. I don't have enough time to finish even 80% of it by March 15. So, I decided to put this on my to-do-lists for now. Does it make sense though? Is it something worth pursuing?

I am in love with my final Quantum Bang entry but I do like my first two ideas. I even made aesthetics for them already but I have to make do with the time. Hence, my final idea (which I'm not at Part 3 of 5).

Anyway, what do you think about this one?
