HARRY POTTER
TIME TRAVELER
Summary – Harry opens a book in the Restricted Section and it transports him 21 years into the future, where he meets up with the future Ron and Hermione and their son, Eddie. Harry also meets Lily Potter, Harry's very spunky and caring future teenage daughter with a hot temper and a bit of an attitude. Harry wants to know about his future, but he feels that Ron, Hermione, Lily, and Eddie are keeping something from him; some very deep, dark secrets.
Disclaimer – I do not own Harry Potter, the characters, or the Harry Potter world. The all belong to the fabulous J.K. Rowling. However, while I do not own their names, the characters and the personality traits of Lily Potter, Eddie Weasley, Daris Malfoy, Christof Nott, as well as Asher Lazard and Robyn Andrews all belong to me.
Chapter 11 - Suspicion:
"Asher, how in the bloody hell do you stay so thin?" asked Harry astonished and wide-eyed as he watched Asher eat his fourth plate of eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, French toast, and pancakes. Lily and Robby laughed.
"I told you!" she squealed, pointing an accusing finger at Asher. "It's not human! Even Harry agrees with me!"
"No worries," said Asher causally. "And to answer your question, Harry; I pump iron!" Asher lifted up the sleeve of his robes and began flexing his arm to show off his so-called muscle. Lily snorted and orange juice came out of her nose from laughing so hard. Harry, Eddie, Asher, and Robby saw her and bursted out laughing at the sight of Lily with orange juice coming out of her nose. Lily just laughed harder. It truly was quite a sight to make an on-looker smile as well.
"It's not bad enough that we have to stand the sight of you Mudbloods and Mudblood lovers, but do we have to hear you as well?" a cold voice asked from behind Harry, Asher, and Lily, who were sitting across from Eddie and Robby. Eddie and Robby looked up and glared. Harry slowly turned around and faced Malfoy's cold, pug-like face, along with the snarling face of his three cronies.
"Oh, shove it Malfoy," snarled Lily, turning her back on the four Slytherins. "No one is talking to you so no one is forcing you to listen. Why are you listening in on our conversations anyway? Do you have no life?" Harry slowly moved his hand into the pocket of his robes to clutch his wand. He would be ready to hex Malfoy or any of his friends off of their feet if they even tried to touch a hair on Lily's head.
"Listen here, Potter," snapped Malfoy, clearly offended by Lily's comment. "I know it was you and Evans who set up the Dungbombs in our Common Room and at our table yesterday!"
"Do you?" asked Lily innocently. "Well, why on earth would you think that? After all, I have so much love and respect for you Slytherins." Both Eddie and Asher chuckled at Lily's antics. Meanwhile, Robyn and Harry looked on in concern. Harry refused to take his eyes off of Malfoy or take his hand off of the handle of his wand.
"Lily stop," whispered Robyn urgently. "Really, it's not worth it."
"Shut your mouth, Mudblood," snapped Nott, who overheard Robyn's comment. "No one asked you!"
"Don't you talk to her like that!" shouted Eddie. Both he and Asher got to their feet. But, Lily ignored their conversation. She just continued her stare down with Daris Malfoy. Neither of them noticed that Harry was in on their staring contest.
"You'll regret your so-called humorous antics one day, Potter," hissed Malfoy; it was almost snakelike and Harry was strongly reminded of Voldemort.
"I'm sure I will, Malfoy," said Lily coolly, not a trace of fear in her eyes or voice. Harry had to admire her nerve. "In the meantime, you can't prove it was me who set the Dungbombs. You're at a dead end; you'll never get me."
"I don't need proof!" snarled Malfoy. Harry was beginning to get nervous and Robyn was silently giving him a desperate look to try and stop the fight or argument that was bound to occur. Eddie and Asher were too busy sizing up Nott, Crabbe, and Goyle.
"I know it was you, Potter," continued Malfoy, "and I'll get you!" Malfoy took his hard cold, gaze off of Lily for one moment to round on Harry. "I will get you too Evans! Make no mistake, I will get you both!" Malfoy turned to look back at Lily and an impish, evil grin crossed his features.
"I'll especially get you, Potter" growled Malfoy coolly. Lily's jaw was set. "I'll get you just like my father got your father!"
It was at that moment that Harry jumped to his feet and pulled out his wand. Not because Malfoy made a physical threat towards Lily, but because Lily had gone red with rage and leaped on top of Malfoy punching him as hard as she could in the face.
"LILY, DON'T!" Harry and Eddie shouted in unison. Robyn squealed and dived across the table to try and pull Lily off of Malfoy. Meanwhile, Eddie and Asher pulled their own wands out to prevent Nott, Crabbe, or Goyle from touching the girls. Harry followed Robyn's lead and walked over to try and pull Lily off of Malfoy. But, someone grabbed Harry's ankles and pulled him down to the floor. Harry realized that it was Malfoy. He shot a quick glance at Lily and saw that Robyn had managed to pull her out of the scuffle, but she was cradling a bloody nose. Before Harry could retaliate in Lily's defense, Malfoy started punching him as hard as he could. Harry managed to punch Malfoy directly in the stomach and hard.
"ANOTHER FIGHT!" a voice screamed. Hermione had jumped up from her seat at the staff table. When she saw Malfoy on top of Harry punching him aimlessly, a fury grazed her features that none of the students had ever seen before. She ran from the staff table and right towards the Gryffindor table.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING, MALFOY?" screamed Hermione, her voice echoing throughout the Great Hall. "GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF HIM!"
Everyone at Hogwarts, with the exception of Lily, Eddie, Remus, and Snape, were shocked by Hermione's actions. They just did not know or understand that Harry Evans was really the Headmistress' late best friend from the past and that she was going to be a bit protective of him. The students who did not have a clue as to who Harry really was were beyond shocked. The Headmistress had never singled out a student before. Malfoy gave Harry a deathly glare, but let go of him and got to his feet. As Eddie helped Harry to his on feet, Malfoy looked long and good at Harry's face. That was when his eyes widened; to the point where they looked like they would pop out of his pug face.
"What's that mark on your forehead, Evans?"
"What mark?" asked Harry quickly as he nervously pulled his bangs over his forehead. Lily heard this and her eyes widened dangerously at Malfoy. Eddie stood behind Harry and gave her a warning look to prevent her from leaping on top of Malfoy again. Malfoy, however, failed to notice Eddie and Lily's exchange and raised a disbelieving eyebrow at Harry. An evil smile played across his pale lips. Harry did not like the look of that smile; he did not like it at all.
"What on earth is going on here?" asked Hermione sternly when she finally reached the scene. Asher and Robyn opened their mouths to answer but Harry turned to look at her quickly.
"Nothing, Professor, nothing at all," said Harry, giving Hermione one of his 'I'll-explain-later' looks. Hermione looked at him with narrowed eyes, showing him that she frustrated and not happy with what just went on, but she nodded in understanding.
"Malfoy, please return to the Slytherin table," she said giving the Slytherins a look of dislike. "That goes for you too, Nott, Crabbe, Goyle. I will deal with you all later. And that goes for you four as well!" Hermione now rounded on the four Gryffindor fifth years who looked at her wide-eyed. With an irritated sigh, Hermione headed back over to staff table, mumbling incoherent words under her breath. Harry noticed that neither of the Slytherin boys had obeyed Hermione's instructions. Harry rounded on them.
"I suggest you get out of here, Malfoy," snarled Harry. Malfoy simply stared at Harry; his face impassive.
"I would take your own advice, Harry Evans," retorted Malfoy. His impassive face now became a very disturbing grin, emphazing the word 'Evans.' Harry, Lily, and Eddie all looked at each other out of the corner of their eyes, a bit nervously. When Malfoy and his goons finally turned and walked back to their own table, Lily turned urgently to Harry.
"Don't think anything of it, Harry," whispered Lily urgently. "He has no idea who you really are. I mean, how can he know?" Harry just grinned and nodded uncomfortably. Lily sighed and dropped the subject as the four of them returned to their breakfast.
But, it was not what Malfoy had said that troubled Harry. He knew that Lily was right and that there was no possible way that Malfoy would assume that Harry was really Harry Potter. It was something else; something was still nagging in the back of Harry's mind.
'What did Malfoy mean when he said to Lily 'like my father got your father?' What did that mean?' Harry asked himself.
Those were the thoughts that were troubling him.
A note from the Jitterbelle. Oh no! It looks like Malfoy might suspect something....
Please keep reading, enjoying, and reviewing!!!! :)
Coming in Chapter 11 -- Malfoy and his friends have a little discussion about 'Potter' and her new friend 'Evans.'
