Futuristic Problems

A day. I've been in 1982 for a whole day, and now I'm going to see Sirius from the future. But what about Sirius from the past? Is he okay? He must be worried sick! She woke up at the Leaky Cauldron and got ready to go meet Sirius.

"How will I meet him, sir? And where?" Ashley asked Dumbledore as they left the pub together.

"Well, you'll be going to a small station just outside of Azkaban. Ministry Cars will take you there. The speed of those cars should make the ride about five minutes long," Dumbledore replied.

"Thank you so much, Professor!" Ashley said gratefully as she got in the car.

"Good luck, Ashley," Dumbledore responded, and waved her goodbye. The car went so fast that she thought she would surely puke. After around five minutes, it stopped, and, shakily, she got out.

She walked into a small, gray, one story place. Inside, there were gray walls, two chairs and a table. "Just lovely," Ashley muttered.

Then, a tall auror with almost white hair and brown eyes entered the room. "Mr. Black will be in in a moment."

"Uh, thanks."

Just then, Sirius Black entered the room, one auror in front of him, one in back of him. He wore handcuffs, his hair was longer and crazed, he looked pale and sickly. But this was the man she fell in love with, and the man she would love forever.

"Sirius!"

"A - Ashley. Y - You're alive!"

"No. I'm from 1977. Dumbledore said I was here to observe and go back to change what is. But what happened? How did you get here? Oh, look at you!" Ashley rambled. She walked close and hugged him, and gave him a quick kiss.

"1977, eh? What date?" Sirius asked skeptically.

"November 12, 1977. Remember what that is, don't you?" Ashley asked.

"How could I forget? That was our one month anniversery," Sirius said, and for a second, the boyish smile she had remembered crossed his face.

"What happened on our one month anniversery that you remember?" Ashley questioned.

"Well, we pretty much spent the day on Hogwarts grounds. By the lake and such," Sirius replied, remembering.

"That's why! In my time we were going to go outside, and then we passed the Room of Requirement so we went in, and we started talking about the future and stuff, and I accidently said something that made me come here."

"We talked about the future by the lake too. I remember it like it was yesterday. That was the day I knew I wanted you to be the girl I married and had kids with," Sirius replied quietly.

"Really? Were we married? Did we have any kids?" Ashley asked eagerly.

"We were engaged. And then Voldemort, that son of a bitch, and stupid Peter had to ruin everything! Not to mention that jackass, Tyler."

"Tyler, Who's Tyler? And wait-Did you say Wormtail? Peter as in our friend, Peter Pettigrew?"

"He's no friend of mine. He betrayed us all. He's the reason you're all dead! He's why I'm in Azkaban. He is why I lost the love of my life."

"Is Peter a - a Death Eater?"

"Pretty much," replied Sirius solemnly.

"What could I do to change this?" Ashley asked, holding his hands.

"Don't let Peter be the secret-keeper. Volunteer to do it yourself," Sirius said, after a moment of thought.

"Secret-keeper?" Ashley asked, confusedly.

"Don't trust Peter. We're in seventh year now, right? He's probably all ready a Death Eater, or close to becoming one. Warn us all of what Peter is becoming. Especially Dumbledore," Sirius said, ignoring her question.

"I will, Sirius. One question before I go," Ashley said with a smile. Sirius nodded, telling her to continue, "Do you love me?"

Sirius smiled. "Always and forever."

Ashley glowed a yellowish color and was gone.

AUTHORS NOTE: Sorry this is so short, but I wanted to put something up in the meantime.
