Chapter Two
Here it is, the second part of the story!!! I have no idea what I'm typing, by the way; this is all coming off the top of my head so I'm sorry if it doesn't seem to make sense. Don't forget to review!!! (
Harry spluttered and coughed as he fell into the Griffindor common room in a flurry of smoke and ash. Hermione, who had been, as usual, bent over a table littered with books, jumped and spun around.
"Harry, is that you?"
Harry scrambled to his feet and dropped the hood of his invisibility cloak over his shoulders. Hermione shuddered.
"I wish you wouldn't do that; it looks like your head is floating in mid air! Did you find anything?"
"Yeah," Harry said, fighting against the overwhelming urge to hide the pendant from her. He fished the object out of his pocket and felt the same desire for power as he had when he had first picked it up. The golden lion glinted in the light of the fire and Hermione's face lit up with an expression of awe and longing.
"Oh.Harry! Can I hold it?"
"No!" Harry snapped, unable to control himself, "I mean.no, maybe you better not touch it. I think this is the reason that all those things I saw happened; it makes the wearer evil!"
All at once fear crept into Hermione's eyes. "Maybe we should go to Dumbledore."
"Yeah." said Harry, rather reluctantly as some part of him didn't want to let the pendant go, ".Yeah, maybe."
Neither of them moved, however. Their eyes were fixed on the pendant, which continued to glimmer wickedly in the light. Harry suddenly realised that he didn't want to give the pendant to Dumbledore, who would probably destroy it. After all, wasn't one of the powers the pendant granted its wearer the power to heal the dead? He could bring Cedric back; he could bring his parents back.
But no.he couldn't use the pendant's power. Everything it did, no matter what the original intentions of the wearer, was pure evil. Godric Griffindor had used the pendant out of a desire to do good and had ended up with blood on his hands.Harry didn't want to make the same mistake.
And then suddenly it happened. Harry gasped as pain shot through his scar and the common room faded before his eyes. There was a flash of white light and suddenly he was in Dumbledore's office, looking at Dumbledore and the smaller figure of.Harry Potter.
Harry gasped as he saw the pendant in Dumbledore's hand; this was obviously some vision of the future. Dumbledore was nodding slowly as future Harry explained about the pendant.
"Yes Harry, I know all about the pendant," he said eventually, "The events that unfolded when it was in the hands of Godric Griffindor and other powerful wizards is infamous. However." he sighed and turned the object over in his hands, "The decision to destroy it cannot be taken lightly. Evil objects such as this have ways and means of defending themselves. Unlike Tom Riddles' diary, Harry, this pendants' magic will not disperse once it is destroyed.
"What will happen to it?" future Harry asked.
"It will find another vessel to channel itself through; maybe even a living person," Dumbledore replied, suddenly looking much older, "And you more than anyone else, Harry, can appreciate what could happen if it found its way to Voldermort." Dumbledore sighed. "The pendant must be hidden somewhere, protected by powerful magic. Go now Harry, I will see that it is delivered into the right hands."
Future Harry left and Dumbledore, unmistakeably, turned to face the other Harry.
"A sad coincidence, Harry, that you should be the one to find this pendant."
"You.you can see me, Professor?"
Dumbledore nodded. "You should go back to your own time now, Harry. Do not bring the pendant to me."
"But you said you would see that it arrived in the right hands!"
"It is in the right hands already. Who better to defend the pendant than the heir of Griffindor himself?"
"What?" Harry gasped.
"That's the reason Voldermort tried to kill you when you were a baby, Harry. He's the heir of Slytherin and you're the heir of Griffindor, his enemy."
Harry felt weak. So the reason his parents had died.it was his fault! They should have just let Voldermort kill him and they would have survived!
"You see Harry," Dumbledore continued, "Centuries ago Griffindor suddenly broke free of the pendants power, pulled it away from him, left it where it fell and sealed the part of Hogwarts where he dropped it with powerful magical barriers that only he.or his heir.could pass."
"Me," said Harry weakly, "So I should put it back.where no one can reach it!"
"No Harry. There is a danger that Voldermort could eventually break through Griffindors' spells. The only way to stop this pendant is to stop it being made in the first place."
Harry was confused. Surely that meant going back in time?
"I think," Dumbledore continued, "That it's time miss Granger got her Time Turner back!"
