Chapter 3- The Book from the Future
Ron & Luna's apartment:
"Harry," Ron said, cautiously. "What are we going to do?" "We need. we need to call all old D.A. members. Ron, your sister is working in the Contacts Department of the Ministry, and her husband, Dean, he works in the post office. Have them send out notices to the D.A members. Also send one to Dumbledore," Harry told Ron, and then turned to Luna. "Luna Aparate to the OP Head Quarters and alert all the members. We especially need Lupin, Tonks, McGonagall, and Snape." They left to alert the D.A. and the OP members. Harry sat in a chair and stared into the fire. "We have to get Hermione back."

"Aranel, wake up," Legolas whispered in a melodic voice. To Aranel, when Legolas spoke it was with melody in his voice. "If you don't get up, I'll pick you up and carry you to Rohan myself," he said quite mischievously for an elf. Aranel, wanting him to do just that, continued pretending to be asleep. "I think she's really asleep, Legolas," Aragorn said, entering the room. "Somehow, I don't think so, but I guess I'll have to carry her." If she's not pretending I'm glad, and if she is pretending I'm even gladder, he thought to himself. "Let us go eat before we depart," Aragorn said. "We'll bring something along with us for Aranel." They left and Arwen entered the room. She smiled at the girl. "Mae govannen, Aranel. We finally meet," she said, knowing the girl wasn't asleep. Aranel sat up and blushed. "How did you know I wasn't asleep?" "Oh, I know what it's like. to be in love. Now here is a drink for you," Arwen said and gave the drink to Aranel. Aranel drank it, and laid her head on the pillow, drifting off to sleep. Arwen smiled and left to get Legolas and Aragorn. Legolas came in, followed by Aragorn, who laughed at Aranel's snoring. "Legolas, I think you may have to carry her to Edoras," Aragorn said, laughing. Legolas smiled and sighed. "Yes, I will, and I am glad," he said, more to himself than to Aragorn. Let us be on our way," Legolas said, and he bent over and picked Aranel up with ease. She felt so right in his arms. He sighed as Aranel wrapped her arms around his neck, and laid her head to his chest. Aragon put on Legolas's quiver and placed Legolas's bow in it among the arrows. He smiled at Legolas. "Come along," he said to Legolas. "We have to get to Rohan and find Gandalf. He will be able to tell us who she is, and how she came to be here. I don't think she is from anywhere in Middle Earth. We must leave with haste. Though the ring is gone, back in the fires of Mount Doom, there is still yet evil abroad. With that they left on horseback, and rode with speed to Edoras, and they did not meet anybody. Not once did Aranel awake, which worried both Legolas and Aragorn. As they reached the Golden Hall, Gandalf came out with haste. "I heard of your coming. Where is the girl?" Legolas dismounted from his horse, holding Aranel with care, and showed her to Gandalf. "Is she alright, Gandalf? She has slept for four days, not waking once," Legolas told the wizard. "Yes, she sleeps, for Arwen put a sleeping draft in her cup before she left and Aranel can only be wakened by me, but I will not awaken her until I know who she is and how she came to Middle Earth. Take her to Eowyn, Legolas," Gandalf told the elf. "She has a room prepared for her. Legolas left and took Aranel to Eowyn. Aragorn dismounted and approached Gandalf. Gandalf turned to Aragorn. "I know this might sound impossible, but it may be possible. I believe Aranel does not come from anywhere in Middle Earth, or even from our time. She, I believe, is from a book that I believe was linked here by magic. When she opened it she was drawn by force here." "Have you found the book you think she came from?" "Yes, I do believe so," Gandalf said and took a book from his white robes. He handed it to Aragorn. Aragorn looked at the cover, and the title read: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone." "This is impossible, Gandalf," Aragorn said, but Gandalf shook his head. "Nothing is impossible with magic, Aragorn," Gandalf said. "Nothing." "Will we tell Legolas," Aragorn asked, and Gandalf nodded. "Yes," he said, looking at the door Legolas had gone through moments before. "Yes, he loves her and he needs to know the truth. Of whom she is, and where she came from. If we find a way to send her back it will be her decision, not Legolas's, of whether or not she returns. Only Aranel, or Hermione I should say, can decide." Aragorn looked at Gandalf. "You think she is Hermione from this book," Aragorn asked, looking down at the book. Gandalf nodded. "Yes, Aragorn," Gandalf said, entering the Hall, Aragorn at his side. "Yes, I believe she is."
