2004 Potter Cottage
It was a sleepy day at the Potter household and Harry was washing up from lunch and Ginny was trying to force the newest addition of the household to eat some bland mush.
"Come on Jamie. Eat the applesauce for Mummy" Ginny pleaded as she swooped the spoon in front of his face.
"Come on. Here comes the broomstick woosh" James looked infinitely unimpressed but took the final mouthful.Harry heard Ginny sigh in relief before muttering about 'Potter stubbornness' as she wiped the huge amount of apple mush all over his face.
Harry wiped down the high chair and once James was clean again Ginny lifted him up and released him onto the floor. He shot off out of the kitchen and into the living room.
"Where does he get the energy from?Nap times imminent and he's still shooting about"Harry asked in a bewildered tone
"I'm just glad he hasn't decided it was broom time"Ginny replied in an exasperated tone and Harry just nodded in response. They finished getting rid of all remnants of Lunch then walked into the living room. Harry was expecting him to be playing with his toys or trying to climb the sofa which usually resulted in Harry narrowly stopping him from flinging himself backwards into the coffee table.
"James?" Ginny called out and they heard a faint giggle in reply.
"Heathen" He muttered with a smirk before following his wife.
They kept following the giggles until they approached Harry's office.
"Oh no." Was all Harry could manage before darting in to see James reaching for the time turner currently laying on his desk
"Jamie no." Harry said firmly which caused James to turn around rapidly landing him on the floor with a thud. The sharp landing caused James to burst into tears.Ginny rushed forward and began to comfort him. Murmuring soft words in his ear.Ginny went to stand up but stumbled causing James to fall again.
James was beyond soothing and sobbed harder. Then to everyone's shock a sharp explosion echoed throughout the room making the tiny gold necklace land on the floor and shatter. The sparkly sand pouring out.
"Harry?" Ginny squeaked out before the trio disappeared into the sand.
They landed in an eerily familiar hallway with a soft thump. This had riled up James even further and he continued to sob. Ginny's panicked voice appeared over the crying "Are we at-"
"I think so"
"Oh God what if it's Sirius' insane family?"
"Then we run."
James showed no sign of quieting down and they were yet to notice the collection of people in the kitchen doorway.
Thoughts?
