Split Infinity

By:Theo Javier

A/N: This is chapter two (obviously) and it's not so funny yet but I think the entire idea is funny (that's just me though). But anyhoo, this author note is just a little joke between you and me because I think it's just a little ramble spot for me.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Karma Levison. The rest belongs to J.K. Rowling and her people, and the lawyer types...

Dedication: I keep forgetting to dedicate to the best writer's on the net, who don't really publish anymore, but when I was younger, I was completely in LOVE with their fics and have probably read them over fifty times each. They are Someone the First, who wrote The Parents Who Died, which is about James and Lily. God, that fic got me SO obsessed with MWPP/L. Then Tropical Fishy, who wrote The Flower and the Stag. Doesn't the name just tell you about the fic? They are really talented writers!!!

chapter two

James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter dragged Hermione Granger or "Lily Evans" as they were calling her, to Dumbledore's office. Hermione was not unconcious the entire time, but was content to pretend to be. Once they were a few steps away, she "woke" up and stood on her own. She raked her hand through her now thinner and redder hair, and crossed her arms over her chest. She was beginning to feel like she was not in her own body, which was odd. Lily was shorter than Hermione, and she was larger in departments that Hermione was not (she was... curvier, than Hermione). Also, Lily "Evans" or Lily Potter, as Hermione knew her, was around some of Hermione's dearest freinds and one of her dearest enemies.

"Password," said Remus. "Now what was it?"

Hermione rolled her eyes and snapped, "Lemon Drop." With that, they climbed in and trouped into Professor Dumbledore's office. The wizard was sitting at his desk, snacking on the said candy, looking as though he had expected the group to barge into his office unexpected.

"Hello," he said cheerfully. "Did Professor McGonnagall send you in for arguing again? Pulling pranks on eachother?" Hermione was shocked to see him looking so much younger. Well, not so much, but considerabley. His beard wasn't as longer nor as snowy white, and he looked a bit less lined. Not by much, but some.

"No," Hermione said. She sighed and began to explain, "You see, it all started when I was in Divination earlier, and we had to visualize stuff, and I was thinking of Lily Potter. So then I had to use the facelities, so I went after class. Moaning Myrtle flung open the door and hit me in the head, and I think I got hurled back through time!" She said this quickly and in one long breath. Professor Dumbledore nodded again and acted like he expected her to say something like that.

"And I think she just got hit in the head in the loo and this is the result," James piped up, grinned like a chesire cat. Hermione shot him a glare and his grin grew wider.

"Well, we have quite a situation on our hands, don't we?" he asked rhetorically.

"I suppose," Hermione said. "I'm Hermione Granger, by the way. Not Lily Potter."

"By the way, she seems to think that Lily and I are married, and that the reason Sirius was in jail, though he wasn't, is Peter Pettigrew," James cut in. "Obviously, she needs to visit St. Mungo's." He chuckled as she decked him in the head. "Merlin, violence much?"

"Reality much?" she said in a mocking tone. "Look, Professor Dumbledore, I think that it's James here who needs to visit Mungo's, maybe you'll see Lockhart there."

"Lockhart who?" Sirius said, scrunching up his face in confusion. "I don't know any Lockhart."

"Yes we do," Remus said, a look of regocnition on his face. "Remember that dorky seventh year? Ha, he's at Mungo's now?" Sirius started laughing and so did Peter, in a nervous fashion. Remus grinned, "The one who we turned his pants pink! I remember!"

"Oh yeah, that one," Sirius said, beginning to snort. "I miss that kid." He shook his head and Hermione stared at him.

"He's not a St. Mungo's now, you daft. He is in the future because Ron -" at the reminder of her real friend, and also crush, she stopped. "Oh my goodness, Harry and Ron must be wondering where I am! They know I'm gone, and now that I'm here and we've realized the problem, we can send me back!"

"Lily. You really don't believe that you're Hermy Ranger, do you?" James asked, turnin serious all of a sudden.

"A) it's Hermione Granger, and B) I don't believe it, I know it. I can prove it to you." She turned flipped her hair confidently and put her hands on her hips. "Ask me anything. Like, say your nicnames. I know what they mean."

"Yeah right, no one knows our nicnames. 'Cept us," Sirius said confidently.

"Padfoot, dog," she started, much to his amazement. "Prongs equeal stag, Wormtail is a rat," she spat, her eyes narrowing in his direction, "and Moony is of course, a werewolf. I know Dumbledore knows, because otherwise you wouldn't be going to the Shrieking Shack, Remus." Hermione grinned at their faces. They had all just stared at her, Sirius's mouth hanging open and making an odd noise when he breathed in and out.

"Well, Miss Granger," said Dumbledore, a pleasant grin on his face. "I suggest that you don't tell any more of the boys' secrets, nor nothing else about their future. It could change everything that you know in the future, and the rest of the world. Which wouldn't be that good of a thing, now would it? I'll take up the issue with the Ministry -"

"Hogwash," Hermione said, not completely trusting the Ministry still, after the Umbridge and High Inquistor peroid of her life. "You'll have to do it with out those pigs..."

"I assure you, they are fine people to work with," Dumbledore said soothingly. Hermione shrugged, having not much of a choice. "But until then, you'll have to stay here, and live life as you normally would. And you'll have to go as Lily Evans for now... So you won't alarm the other students..."

Hermione Granger couldn't believe her luck. As she climbed the staircase to the girls' dorm, she regretted that she didn't quit Divination while she could. She headed into where her dorm was regularly, and was surprised to find that her bed was not the same as Lily's. She was about to step in when a girl grabbed her arm and pulled her out.

"What are you doing, Lily?" the girl asked. She was tall and had long brown hair and big brown eyes. She was beautiful, even in the Hogwarts school uniform.

"Um..." she shrugged and the girl pulled her into another room. It was circular and her bed was in the same spot as the other, just a different room with complete strangers. Her own self was a complete stanger.

"So, where were you today? Did you get in trouble again for arguing James?" the girl asked while changing into her night gown. Hermione did the same, pretending that she did it every day, that she was exactly where she was supposed to be, doing what she always did.

"Um, yes, you know James and me... Always arguing." She shrugged. 'They must have fought all the time, because that's the second accusation for it,' she thought. 'But they were still in love, becaue they got married and had Harry.'

"You know that he likes you." The girl was getting into bed, and Hermione did the same thing. Once she got in though, she felt something hard against her back. Pulling it out, she was more than surprised to find that it was a diary. "Well, we have a full day ahead of us. Night."

"Night," Hermione chorused. She closed the velvet hangings and pulled out Lily's wand, which was somewhat like her own but not really. She mumbled lumo's and a light turned on. Openning it up, she read the first page quickly.

"This is a top secret diary. If any of the MARAUDERS should happen to stumble upon it, they should close it quickly and run away for their lives. Hahaha, I'm great at charms, aren't I Potter?" was written in Lily's neat script. Hermione was almost scared to pick it up herself, after that. But she flipped the page and began to read some more. "James Potter is completely mad. He seems to think that I'm interested in him, and continously asks me to go to Hogsmede some weekend. But they aren't even Hogsmede weekends... I wonder how he get's there... I'm tempted to say yes though, if he would devulge the information to me."

Sighing, Hermione read further and found that the other girl was named Karma Levison, and that she and Lily had been best frieinds since first year. Closing the diary, after reading only another paragraph about poor Severus, and how James was always so mean to him, Hermione decided that she was going to have a very hard time being Lily Evans.

Wishing she was home, she curled up in bed and fell into an exhausted slumber.
