Shouldn't it stay there.
DISCLAIMER- I do not own any of these characters JK Rowlings does. So please don't sue me.
SUMMARY- Stories from the past are better best forgotten. Shouldn't they stay there? Or do you let them all out.

From the beginning.
When one says please think back I always tried to shut my thoughts off. But standing here today I have no choice. So many faces staring and expecting things from me, and I am finding it difficult to remove the lump that has firmly lodged itself in my throat. People from my past, present, and future (hopefully) not knowing if to smile at me, greet me or cry for me. If only a time-turner was available to me now to use in such an inappropriate manner, I could change everything for the good, not only for me but for everybody else here today. A slight chuckle escapes my lips and everyone turns to stare in my direction, once again I feel young and vulnerable even though me face doesn't show it. My school friends who are here today probably can't believe what they are seeing, I must look alien to them, not the confident person I was at school, that had been taken away from me and I had gladly pushed it to the back of my mind. Standing in front of the Minister of Magic himself Mr Fudge he is going to make me relive it all and I don't know if I can.
Looking around I see a door at one side of the room not to far away, I could reach it in a few steps, oh yes logical thing to do is stay, but there is my marauding side that is telling me to run for it. Standing here musing about things I realise I still haven't addressed Mr Fudge or the Wizengamot and the pity stares had turned into confused ones.
So I will take a deep breath, try to lose the lump in my throat and start the long tale of my past, present, and future, and maybe getting some answers for myself.
I will wish myself luck.
"my name is McKenzie Potter" my voice strangely strong even though my legs feel like they are going to give way at anytime.
"miss Potter, thank you for coming here today I realise this is difficult for you, but you are a key link to the accused Mr Sirius Black. Please in your own time" Mr Fudge settle down and waited for the long tale to begin…….
