Disclaimer-The characters of this story do not belong to me; I'm just using them, that's all.

Note From The Editor- Hey guys, thanks for reading and all but I need to tell you about the story for a sec. Um...I got a review from a person asking me who Laura Peltive was. I can't disclose that info until a few chapters later so bare with me. Also keep in mind; Laura plays an important role in the book. Although In the original third book (told through Harry's Perspective) there is no Laura, she appears here. Just keep in mind she is a "MAIN" character; you juts don't see her that much in the first chapters that's all. Oh, in this chapter the "past Hermione" is referred to as just that, "past Hermione". Thought you ought to know!





"Oh blimey, now I've gone and done it," said Hermione in a bad mood shoving past her "past" reflection in a hurry.

"What...what do you mean?" said the past Hermione looking as if she was going to faint.

"Okay...I'm from the future.... Your time turner.... You went back in time, or at least you're going to anyway.

The past Hermione stepped back and observed her before taking out her time turner and picking up her books.

"We can't tell anyone about this... okay." said Hermione

"Yeah...you're...You're right...umm..." The past Hermione took a deep breathe. "How far ahead are you in the future?"

"An hour" Hermione paused "I'm going to...um...hexes"

The past Hermione stared at Hermione for a second, before bending down a picking up her divination book.

"You have to be...I mean we have to...well...Just be care full next time. If anyone sees me, well you...humm...us, we're in trouble."

"I don't know how to position myself when I go back in time, but I'll ask Mcgonagall". Said Hermione cheerfully.

Hermione glanced down at her watch. "Oh no! You're going to be late for Divination!!!" screamed Hermione "We have to go...Or we'll both be late"

Hermione started to walk away when she remembered her divination experience.

"Wait"

"What?" asked the past Hermione in a hurry.

"I left divination...well you're going to leave it anyhow" said Hermione

"Why?"

"The class is a lot of rubbish that's why" she exclaimed "Before you leave, use the Time Turner. Don't wait until the bell wrings."

"Why?" asked the past Hermione.

"Because if you don't...You'll bump into yourself again."

Hermione started to walk away again when she thought of Harry.

"And don't..."

But before she could finish, the past Hermione was already away from her and up the stairs leading to Divination.



"Take that for predicting the future" Hermione laughed



Hermione turned around and headed towards potions. When she arrived, the classroom was empty and the doors were locked. Snape had already left with the Slytherins, and Gryfindors.

"Alohomora" Hermione whispered and the lock of the door clicked signaling it's opening. Hermione pushed open the door and looked back into the long corridor. Hermione waited in the doorway until the room became cloudy. She lifted her wand and shouted.



"Impedimente" The cloud in the room slowed it's movement and Hermione ran inside. With audacity, she ran to the cupboard in the corner of the room.







"Alohomora" She screamed. The cupboard flung open and Hermione lifted her wand up and screamed.





"Reducto!!"

A yellow potions bottle shrank in size and Hermione grabbed it. Before she knew it, Snapes cupboard started to shake violently.

"Oh, no!!"

The cupboard bounced up and down and Hermione dropped the potion bottle.

"Lud.no.Reduct .no.Impedimente!!!" she shouted.

The cabinet started to slow down and Hermione, grasping her wand tightly, she reached in again grabbing another potion bottle out of the cupboard. Hermione went into her book bag and placed the bottle in the front pocket and removed a container from the bottom of her bag. She opened the lid, revealing a golden powder.

"Armarous postrum!!!" she shouted before blowing the powder onto the cupboard and around the room.

The cupboard stopped moving and slid back into it's original place. The potion bottle pieced back together and went back into the cupboard, closing the door.



"That was easy" she said briskly "Wait a minute".



Hermione looked to the door on the other end of the classroom. The room started to become hazy. The air became thick and hard to breathe.

"Snape!" she gasped "Lacarnum Inflamare.labule" she whispered

A roar of flames cloaked her before sending Hermione into a whirlwind transporting her back into a corridor of the Gryfindor tower. Footsteps echoed through the hallway as Hermione struggled for air.

"Oh no, not again!!!" she managed as the footsteps became closer.

"Lumm." But before she could finish Snape stepped into the corridor from an off hallway.

"Ms. Granger, how very interesting to see you" Snape muttered Snape.

"Professor I was just."

"Wandering the hallways out of class, now that wouldn't look to good would it?" Snape said circling Hermione like a Hawk.



"Now what would a student like yourself be doing in the hallways during class?"



"I got. I umm. I was lost.my watch. it umm."



"I wouldn't want to see such a intelligent student get expelled from Hogwarts." A small grin crept across Snape's narrow face.



"I.wasn't." Hermione took a deep breath "Professor Snape, I was on my way to see.Um.to see.Professor Mcgonagall!!"



"But in order to prevent this I'm forced to take.20 points from Gryfindor!!!, for destruction of property and wandering the halls without permission!" Snape's grin grew wider.



"But that's not fair!!!" Hermione shouted.



"And 5 points for back talk to a teacher" Snape motioned his hand to the classroom on his left a few feet back. "And Mcgonagall's office is back there".



Hermione looked back the long corridor before looking back to Snape.



"I must have lost track of where I was going" she lied.



The smile disappeared on Snape's face.



"I'm sure you did," said Snape still holding his hands towards the door. "Well Ms. Granger, move it or its 30 points".



Hermione grinned and walked to Professor Mcgonagall's office door. Clutching the door handle she looked back at Snape who was walking towards her.



"I'm waiting" He whispered, hands folded in his arms. "Or are you that eager for detention?"



Hermione smiled and responded.

"I just thought.." She stopped and turned the door handle. "Have a good day professor," she said sternly walking into the office. Mcgonagall stood in the corner of a large room eyeing Hermione.



"Well?" her voice echoed through the room.

"I.umm." Hermione stepped back and watched as Snape walked into the room.



"Ms. Granger here says she has something important to tell you," said Snape glaring at Hermione, with evil intent.



"Well it's not all that important I just."



"So important she found it necessary to leave class and tell you" Snape's voice sounded loud and irritated.



"Well Ms. Granger out with it" said Mcgonagall "there's nothing to be afraid of"



"Well it's just that.I um.you know if you're busy.I can wait until tomorrow" Hermione uttered a nervous laugh.



"That's alright Hermione, I'm not busy now" Mcgonagall said with great interest.

"I.I." Hermione looked at the side of Mcgonagall's desk and saw a Daily Prophet newspaper.



"I came here to ask you about the.the.news paper!!!" She shouted. "Yeah can you believe that Rita?" Hermione chuckled innocently.



Mcgonagall watched Hermione fidget and turned to Snape.

"Yes well she is an interesting writer, but I suppose that pen is going to get her into a lot of trouble one day. Umm.is that all?" she asked

"Yeah.I just wanted to tell you that.Um, I've got to get back to class".



Hermione turned and looked at Snape who was blocking the door with a shocked expression.



"Excuse me.Professor," said Hermione looking at the door handle. Snape reluctantly moved from the door. Hermione walked through in a hurry, but was blocked by Snape again.



"Now you wouldn't happen to know who was in the third corridor, would you?" said Snape looking from Hermione to Mcgonagall.



"I was startled to find my room opened. Someone, I'm guessing was a student, gotten past my enchantments and stole the Elipicule potion from my cabinet.



Mcgonagall pulled down her glasses and stared at Hermione.



"I assure you professor, Hermione isn't capable of getting past such spells. It would take someone familiar with the dark arts to counter course it". Mcgonagall glanced nervously to the door in which Snape was blocking.

"You should send someone to investigate. Now if you two don't mind, I have an engagement.if you would Hermione?" Mcgonagall motioned Snape away from the door.



"Gladly Professor" Hermione glared at Snape teasingly



"Oh by the way is everything going okay with the."



"Yes!!!" Hermione yelled cutting off Mcgonagall and watching Snape nervously "Everything's fine.um I've have to go, good-bye Professor" Hermione looked at Snape. "Snape." she glanced back and started to walk through the door. She was half way down the hall when Snape caught up with her.



"Don't think I believe you for one second Ms. Granger" Snape hurriedly whispered. You and Mr. Potter have been a nuisance ever since you came here. Breaking every single rule you can, all for attention".



"But I." Hermione began but Snape cut her off.



"I'll see that you're expelled, mark my word Ms. Granger. You won't last in this school and neither will your disgusting friends if I have the last word" Snape abruptly turned and walked from Hermione.





"And neither will you" Hermione whispered.



"What?" Snape's voice echoed through the hallway bouncing off of the corridor walls.



"I didn't say anything" Hermione lied



Snape's eyes seemed to glow in the light from the windows.



"30 points from Gryfindor!!!" Snape bellowed, and I have my eyes on you Ms. Granger"



Snape's footsteps faded as he advanced up the hallway. Hermione found herself walking in the common. She stopped in front of a red seat near the fireplace and relaxed.

"Why bother, we're not going to win the house cup anyway, and besides Harry."Hermione stopped herself and yawned. A creaking came from the hall and the door swung open. The past Hermione stood in the doorway.

"How did divination go?" Hermione asked



The past Hermione dropped her book bag and walked to the fireplace.



"Trelawney mental.that's all" the past Hermione sighed.



"Yeah." The bell rang and Hermione looked at the common room door.



"You'd better go back in time now" Hermione watched as The past Hermione took out her Time Turner.



"Wait." the common room door began to open and Hermione shrieked

"Go now!!!"



The room became hazy and the past Hermione disappeared through time, dragging the time turner with her. Harry and Ron walked though the door laughing with each other, when they saw Hermione.



"Hermione, that was bloody brilliant!!!" Ron bellowed.



"Yeah Hermione that was pretty funny what you did to Trelawney. She went on afterwards dropping plates and predicting death for every one who talked about you, or laughed.



Harry smiled at her and Hermione blushed.



"Yeah well Trelawney is.special" Hermione said briskly.



"Uh.I've have to go to um.the Library, Bye" Hermione Grabbed her bag and ran to the doorway when she noticed the bag the Past Hermione Left Behind.



"Oh no"

Harry picked up the bag and opened it.

"Hermione?" Harry's face looked puzzled.
