PART III
"I've finished, finally." A ridiculous grin grew on Selina Snape's face. In her hands she held the first time turner, or close to one anyway, in about thirty years. Soon she would be able to save the world, stop her parents from dying.
But not just hers. In her mind's eye she saw Cherie playing chess with everyone who was willing, just to remember the times she and her father had spent playing the game.
Then she saw Artemis talking so passionately about quidditch, the games in which she had faced off against her dad. Selina could still see the faraway, longing look in Artemis's eyes. She could still feel the emotions radiating off her.
Selina saw Vickie just staring into a mirror, trying to see her long since dead parents in her reflection, to have at least a little piece of them.
And of course Ryan came next. Selina saw the young boy of nine, already far too mature for his age, keep tears locked up inside and put on a cheerful mask after his father's sudden death. She saw him grow up to the 17-year-old he was now who remained the last bit of visible happiness in the Order, but she still saw looks of pain, both mental and physical, flash across his face when believed no one could see.
Then there was herself. Selina still cried herself to sleep after seven years. And her brother, now a lifeless shell, she would be able to help him. With the object in her hand, she was going to change all of this. Gently she put it down on the desk and stood up. She just had to go say good-bye and it would be hello new hope. Finally.
All right, this takes place the day before Selina went back in time, basically the day Hermione's parents were killed, just thirty years in the future (give or take a year I think). She's just finished the time turner and is recalling how much everyone left in the Order has and is suffering. If I were to do this for a prequel, it would basically start after Voldemort preformed the ritual because that's when this time would differ from the present in O Future Tell of Secrets as long as Selina succeeded in changing the events of the past. Personally, I'm hoping most of you will vote on this one because I believe it would be the most fun to write, because it isn't even close to the main universe. It would be interesting to write about the remaining Order's relationships with their parents, particularly with their fathers. However, unlike all the other ones, I couldn't start this prequel until O Future Tell of Secrets was done, because it explains a lot of what happens in that story. But review and don't forget to vote on your favorite!
