If only I had, One Chance

Chapter 1

Mooney's gift

'If only' is the thought that Harry Potter had most nights before he went to bed. He was always thinking about his parents, if only they never died, if only he had a chance to meet them.

This thought didn't eat Harry up inside nearly as bad as the next one…'its all my fault' is what he kept telling himself at night. Harry's last remaining wizard relative had been killed at the end of last year, and Harry very strongly blamed himself for his death. Seeing as he was the one that rushed off so sure that Sirius was actually even in danger…But something else bugged him as well..

He would lye awake at night almost every night thinking, what if he had the chance to meet his parents.. It would make him that much happier. As of now the rest of harry's holidays didn't look good at all, and actually he didn't even know how happy he would be with the return of school.

Of course there was the comforting notes he received every so often from one of his two best friends, Ronald Weasley, a pure blooded wizard with fire red hair, and hermione granger, a witch who could be very beautiful if she tried. Though she would claim 'o its to much effort to do my hair you know how bushy my it is' but to Harry it wasn't to much effort for he ever since his first year had hidden feelings for a certain someone even though he knew he could never reveal them.

More often then not he would just throw the notes away after reading them, but he would feel slightly better after he received them knowing that there was indeed still people who cared deeply for him. He received many notes but he would there were certain notes he would always keep, they were signed Love, and made Harry feel happy even re-reading the same note twice, thrice, even four times.

One day Harry received a very strange delivery indeed, Instead of the normal parchment he would receive, it took 3 owls to bring and seemed to be very heavy. And to his great surprise it wasn't even just a note, but for some reason it was still very small. Harry quickly opened it curious as to what may be inside. To his surprise a note popped up holographic ally and read this

Dear Harry,

This is a very powerful artifact, and as you know the artifact is weighed by the amount of magic it holds not its size. I'm giving you this because I know, you just as I, must be weeping over the lose of a great friend. This is an artifact that we created in our childhood for laughs just incase we ever wished to return to the past and see what we were truly like. But I feel it would do more good for me to leave it to you. What it will do is return you to the year of 1977 when we were in our 6th year. You will live out one year as another student at hogwartz in the time of the marauders. Everything that you do while there will not be remember by them and it will be reversed, but you may not return till the 1 year has past. It was made for four people but I lost one of the rings so only 2 people will be able to accompany you, Choose wisely. O yeah and I highly wouldn't suggest letting people know who you truly are until your sure you would be able to confide the truth into them. I guess you will have to worry about it yourself…Good luck…Hope it cheers you up…

The last true Marauder left,

Mooney

Harry just sat there shocked…He must be dreaming…Was he really going to finally get to meet them…Without hesitation he pulled on his robes, grabbed his invisibility cloak, his firebolt, and the rings. He tore down the stairs hearing his aunt petunia scream

'Vernon, VERNON he's got his thing!!!' she shrieked

'What in the blazes do you think your doing boy'??? his uncle shouted

'leaving…' he replyed simply…

But then he realized that he forgot something, quickly turning back around and returning upstairs he grabbed the map that Ron made for him just incase he wanted to sneak out of the Dursley's.

'Thank you Ron' Harry muttered and walked out the door under the invisibility cloak hearing the shrieks of his Aunt. And actually chuckling to himself…Wow he thought… he was actually laughing for the first time since the end of the school year 1 month ago…But why shouldn't he be cheerful? Just a little longer and he'll be with his mother and father…Things were finally looking up for the boy who lived…
