Lily coughed, she felt wet… very wet. She looked up to find a sprinkler pointing right at her. She sputtered and crawled awkwardly away, slipping slightly on the wet grass.

Once she was clear of the water works, she stood up and gazed about. She was no longer inside, that much was obvious. The day seemed much colder; there was no breeze like the one when she was out jogging before.

Many things were the same, yet several things were different Hagrid's hut still stood by the Forbidden Forest;the Hogwarts castle was still standing.A cool breeze swept across the moonlit ground. The stars were out, yet something didn't feel right. Something about this Hogwarts felt darker.

As she gazed around thesubtly different Hogwartsshe caught sight of… James? Not the person she would ask for but he had to know what was going on.

She started off stomping dramatically in his direction, but the soaked grass madethe stomps inaudible.She got to his side and spun him around harshly.

"What the heck happened Potter!" She shouted. As James turned, Lily let out a small scream as she met his eyesThis wasn't James… he was shorter and his hair wasn't nearly as wild as the James she knew and hated. His glasses were a different color, not that she paid that much attention to that fact, and he had a weird tattoo on his forehead. The thing she noticed the most were his eyes. They were no longer a rich chocolate color, but they mirrored the color of her own eyes instead.

"Who are you?"

"Hello… Hellllllllllooooooo," Remus'eyes went in and out of focus. There was a girl bending over him. She had fiery red hair, and a soft face.

"Lily?" Remus mumbled, squeezing his eyes shut and them opening them again trying to focus on the girl above him.

"Well this is just great, Gin. I told you there were boys spying on us." A girl with short blonde hair complained. "I knew the girl's bathroom was a horrible spot to tell secrets, especially in a castle!"

Ginny moaned. "Would you give that theory a rest, Sadie!" She looked at her friend, "You may be a Ravenclaw, but that doesn't mean you're always going to be right."

The girl named Sadie stuck her tongue out at Ginny. "You're just jealous of my superior brain power!"

Remus groaned. His head was filled with nonsense of girl's bickering. If he'd been listening right, they'd said they were in the girl's bathroom. "Oh great" he thought, "I'm in the girls bathroom, this'll look just great on my Order of the Phoenix résumé."

"Hey, I think he's waking up," Sadie stated pointing at a now fully conscious Remus. "Welcome back, now… GET OUT!"

"Sadie! Would you give it a break, he's not going to eat you!" Ginny laughed as Sadie shrugged.

Remus watched the two girls fuss a little longer before saying. "It's been really great meeting you both, but I'm sort of, well, confused. Have either of you seen James?"

"James Ruby?"

"No,"

"James Kercaba?"

"No,"

James Lickerdo?"

"NO! I didn't know there were so many people named James! I mean James Potter!" Remus exclaimed.

Ginny backed up, "James Potter?"

Sadie just laughed, "He did hear us! He knew we were talking about him!" She glared at Remus, "Listening into girls conversations is an all out low, no matter how hot one is."

"No, I don't think he's talking about Harry, I think he really means James Potter." Ginny looked at Remus, perplexed. "What's your name?"

"Remus Lupin."

"Belipod, Snip Snap, Licker Tarts, Boo Bats."

Sam blinked twice, and then opened her eyes, someone was chanting. She looked to the right, the direction in which the sound was coming from to see a blonde girl huddling over a caldron. She was wearing radish earrings, and a bottle cap necklace.

Sam shook her head to clear it and then sat up. "Hello?" She called out to the strange girl, but received no reply. The girl only continued her chanting.

Sam stood up and stretched and looked around. Where were the others? What had that machine done to them? If it had been a dream maker like Sirius had said her dream definitely wasn't to end up in some strange bathroom with a crazy girl chanting words into a cauldron.

She slowly approached the blonde girl. "Erm, hello?" This time the enchanter did stop. She turned around to face the speaker.

"Oh, you're awake!" She smiled. It was a strange smile, but nonetheless inviting. "I was brewing you a potion because you seemed to be having nose problems."

"Nose problems?" Sam asked tilting her head slightly in question. She looked at herself in the bathroom mirror. She pushed it side to side. Her nose looked perfectly fine to her)

The strange girl nodded. "Yes, it kept changing shape and form. It was quite interesting to watch at first, but then I remembered what my dad had told me about shape-changing noses!" The girl patted Sam on the back, "Don't be alarmed, it only means you're going to explode, so I was making you a remedy."

Sam laughed lightly. "No, no, no!" She giggled. "It's not a problem at all, you see I'm a metamorpmagus.It means I can change my appearance at will. My mum tells me that when I sleep, my nose sometimes shifts forms, but it only happens when I'm dreaming."

"So then you must have been dreaming I suppose." The girl thought about it, "I guess it is possible. I'll have to tell my father about this. It could make a good headliner."

"Headliner?"

"Yes, my father is in charge of the Quibbler!" The strange girl said proudly.

Sam grimaced but held her tongue. She had hated the Quibbler ever since it had written a story about her older sister's daughter. The article stated that metamorphadflkajsdf should not be allowed.

"My name's Luna," She said sticking out her hand for Sam to shake.

"Sam," She replied and shook Luna's hand. "Luna means moon, doesn't it?" Sam asked, trying to strike up a conversation.

Luna nodded proudly. "My mother thought of it. She liked it because she and my father would always watch the moon together when they were dating."

Sam smiled. She was starting to like this girl. There was something about her. It was refreshing.

"Do you by chance happen to know where I can find Lily Evans?" Sam asked as they exited the bathroom and wandered the corridors.

"Lily Evans?"

"Yea, she's a red head, like the only one in school. She's got a temper that's yet to be matched when she's mad." Sam smiled thinking of her friend.

Luna thought for a little while. "Do you mean Ginny Weasley?" She asked, "She's got red hair and a temper when she's mad, but she can also be the sweetest thing."

"Well I think we're talking about the same girl, she's in Gryffindor." Sam stated, waiting for Luna to realize who she was really talking about.

"Yep, that's definitely Ginny. Follow me," Luna said pointing toward the staircase.

Sam yawned and followed, "I just hope Filch isn't out tonight, I almost had a run in with him back before Peter pulled that bloody switch… Peter…"

"Who's Peter?"

"I'm not really sure anymore. I thought I knew him, until this afternoon." Sam thought back to the incident in the library as the two girls climbed the many sets of staircases.

Sam was nearly out of breath when they finally made it to the top. Luna set of briskly towards the common room. Sam jogged to keep up with her. As they rounded the corner to the Fat Lady, the halted as two figures sat in front of the portrait apparently throwing out random guesses at what the password was.

"This is completely nonsense! You know who I am. I'm Sirius Black, you old hag. Now let me into the common room!"

"Sirius, please, that's not going to help." Came a girl's voice. "She doesn't remember who you are."

"DOESN'T REMEMBER WHO I AM!" Sirius cried, "Everyone knows who I am!"

"Imposter! Imposter! Sirius Black has long since left this school and this earth!" The Fat Lady cried viciously.

"ARE YOU SAYING I'M DEAD!"

"Yes, yes I am"

"DO I LOOK DEAD TO YOU, YOU OLD BAT!"

"Sirius! Stop it!"

"She's calling me dead! I've never felt more alive!"

Slowly Luna and Sam approached the conflict. "Sirius?" Sam called out softly, happy to finally find someone she recognized.

Sirius whirled around. "SAM! Thank the heavens!" Sirius ran forward and hugged her. "This place is crazy! People are calling me dead, and this girl," He pointed his thumb over his solder. "Says I can't talk to anyone because there's something wrong with me!"

Hermione ran up to the three of them. "You know him?" She asked Sam.

Sam shrugged, "You don't always get what you want, but yea I know him." She said patting him on the head and laughing.

"Are there any more of you?" Hermione asked, her face serious. "Any more people from your time...I mean, any other friends?"

Sirius sighed, "She keeps asking this question. I'm just ignoring her. If you do it long enough she turns into a mad Lily clone!"

Sam groaned and pushed Sirius away from her, "Yes, there's me, Sirius, Lily, James, Remus, and Peter." Sam cocked an eyebrow. "Is something the matter?"

"You have no idea." Hermione groaned.

Harry stepped back. At first glance, he could have sworn it was Ginny. But her reaction at the sight of him, and her question, 'Who are you?' didn't make any sense.

"Harry."

The girl shook her head trying to clear it. Who was this boy? Why did he look so much like James? She squeezed her eyes shut and then opened them again.

"And who are you?" The James clone asked. He was looking hard at her. Did that mean he was confused?

"I-I'm Lily." She held out her hand lightly, "Lily Evans."

Harry gapped at the girl who called herself Lily. "How'd… how did you get here?" He thought back to the time in his third year when he'd used time-turners to save his Godfather. He looked at Lily's neck. It bore no necklace.

"I'm not really sure… There was this big machine. And then Peter pulled this lever, and then there was a big flash of light, and I woke up out here."

"So you have no Time-Turner?" Harry asked, begging her to say she did in fact have one with her.

"No, Time-Turners are illegal, why in the world would I have a Ti… TIME TURNER!" Lily's eyes seemed to pop out of her sockets. "You mean you think I'm from the future?"

Harry shook his head, "No, I know you're from the past." Harry tried to clear his head so he could think this theory over. He needed Hermione. He wondered if she'd be back in the common room by now. "Follow me, I need to talk this over with someone."

Lily tilted her head, but set off after Harry at a slight jog to the castle.

Ginny gasped. She knew she recognized him. But it wasn't possible, what was a younger version of the Lupin she knew doing in the girl's dorm bathroom?

"Lupin, like Professor Lupin?" Sadie asked kicking up an eyebrow. "You look much younger than the last time I saw you."

"I guess I'll take that as a compliment." Remus sighed. "Look, I really have to go. It's been fun and all, but I have to find James and Sirius and Peter."

"What are all the marauders doing here?" Ginny gasped, "No Remus, you're going no where, except with me!" She pulled him out the door and into the girl's dorm. Then down to the staircase.

"Where are we going?" Remus asked as he tried to keep up with the girl who looked like Lily, but obviously wasn't.

"I have to talk to Harry about this, or Hermione, she'd know what to do." Ginny said franticly. Then she stopped frantically. Sadie, aren't you coming?

Sadie smiled from a few stairs up, sorry Gin, I'm tired and I've got a date with Johnny tomorrow, maybe another time?"

Ginny laughed, "Alright whatever Hun, I'll see you around then." And with that, she continued down the stair, yanking Remus by the sleeve of his robes)

When they entered the common room, Ginny set off to the Boys dorm. She began up the stairs, Remus at her heels.

"You can't go up here!"

"I need to talk to Harry," Ginny shouted back at him.

"Well, at least let me go first so I can make sure all the boys are decent." Remus stated yanking on Ginny's ponytail.

Ginny groaned, "Fine. Whatever, just hurry it up!"

Remus grinned and ran past her; he pushed open the boy's dorm door and would've been knocked back down to the bottom of the stairs, had Ginny had not been behind him. The pillow that had collided with Remus' face fell to the ground.

Ginny giggled, "Well I'm glad you went first!" She crawled past a stunned Remus and entered the boy's dorm. She looked around wildly and spotted Harry. She ran up to him and pulled him by the neck of his shirt down so she could talk to him.

"Harry, I really need to talk to you." She whispered urgently.

"STOP CALLING ME HARRY!" The boy roared. Ginny leapt back as she realized that it was indeed not Harry who she had whispered to. But if it wasn't Harry then it had to be...

"James?"

"THANK YOU!" He laughed and looked down at her. "Oi, Evans! Since when do you call me James...not that I don't like it or anything." He added grinning.

"I'm not Lily,"

"What? I can't hear you, this crazy red head guy started throwing pillows at me." He shouted pointing at Ginny's older brother,

"RON!"

The pillow fight stopped abruptly. The four boys looked around at her. Peter was huddled in the corner using a blanket as his only protection, and Ron and Neville were fighting it out using towels as whips.

"Oi, Peter when did you get here!" James shouted looking in the corner. "What the heck did you do!"

"No, STOP!" Ginny said grabbing James' robes before he could launch himself at Peter. "I want all of you to come down to the common room right now!" And with that Ginny turned on her heel and marched out of the dorm.
