Um, well, I've written the next chapter. I don't really know what to think
of it though.
Thanks to Lady of Argyllshire and Maxennce for reviewing.

"Hermione, hurry up! We'll be late!" Ron yelled.
Hermione came down the stairs, struggling to put her Transfiguration book in her bag. "No we wont, Ron. Besides, it's not like Hagrid would mind."
"Hagrid?" Ron said in confusion. "I thought we had Potions!"
"Ron! It's Thursday. We don't have Potions until after lunch."
"Oh yeah," Ron said with a sheepish smile.
The two of them left Gryffindor Tower and headed out to Care of Magical Creatures. They joined the rest of their class outside Hagrid's hut.
Suddenly a flash of silver light blinded the entire class. Ron and Hermione looked at each other, wondering if this had anything to do with Harry's disappearance fourteen months before.
As the light faded, Hermione could see someone lying on the ground, in the same place where Harry had disappeared. She and Ron glanced at each other, before running in that direction.
They reached the person, and the two of them were stunned to see the unconscious form of Harry Potter lying in front of them.

"Professor!"
Minerva's raised her eyes from the essays she was marking and watched Ron and Hermione run up to her desk. She couldn't help but compare the day with the one fourteen months ago, when the two had came and told her about the disappearance of their best friend.
"Yes Miss Granger, Mr Weasley?"
"You'll never believe what just happened," Ron gasped out, trying to catch his breath.
"I'll never be able to until one of you tell me," she said, raising an eyebrow.
"Well," Hermione began, "We were down near the Lake, and we were near the spot where Harry disappeared, and well, there was a flash of silver light, and Harry was there. He was unconscious, so we took him up to the Hospital Wing."
Minerva saw that the happiness and relief she felt at the news was mirrored on the faces of the two teens. "Well I suppose we had better inform the Headmaster."

Harry opened his eyes, expecting to be on the floor of Malfoy Mansion. Instead he found himself in the Hogwarts Hospital Wing. No one was in the room, and he suspected that something odd was going on.
He went over his memories. He could remember the party. Lucius, Damien and Remus had been turning two, and they had thrown the party. He had been on the way to the kitchen to get some more dip when he slipped on Damien's toy dragon and fell to the floor. He had knocked himself out, he was sure of that, but he could remember a flash of silver light...
'Just like when I left Hogwarts,' the thought came in to his head rather suddenly. He looked at a nearby calendar, the date was clear. And the date was quite a few years later than it had been that morning.
The more he thought about it, Harry began to realize what must have happened. He'd been thrown back in time with no memory, lived there for fourteen years, which was only fourteen months in the future. And now he was back.
He could remember details from both lives, the one here with Ron, Hermione, and everyone; and the life he had lived for the past fourteen years - er, months.
He knew this would mean trouble.
He knew there was only one thing to do. He had to pretend he couldn't remember what he had experienced. He didn't think his friends would be able to cope with the truth. What would Remus say if Harry told him he had baby- sat him?
And what would his friends say if they found out that his best friend had been Tom Riddle, now known as Lord Voldemort?
I didn't really want to leave it there, but I figured it was a good place to stop. Besides, that leaves you readers with a lot of questions, doesn't it?
And yeah, I know it's short.
Please review, 'cause it helps me write faster, really! Also, I need to know if anyone is even reading this story, as if no one is, I wont bother continuing it.
So yeah. Review. Please?
