A/N: I don't own anything.

Chapter 2

"What is so funny?" He glared at his friend. "Nothing, except you two need to brush up on your charm, if she faints when you talk to her."

Sirius turned around. "Well James, It did work out. She is past speechless and in my arms."

Remus shook his head at his friends. "Padfoot, I do prefer girls who are conscious. Now come on let's get her to the hospital wing." He let them down the corridor.

Hermione awake slowly. She took in the hospital bed and the curtains drawn. 'Did I really see Sirius and Remus?' She questioned. Closing her eyes she reasoned it out. She traced the words with her finger, said the words and now she was in the past. She shook her head. If it was a spell she would have had to point her wand... "Oh Crap!" She slapped her forehead. "Damn Harry."

During the war, Harry had convinced her to learn wandless magic. She had practiced a lot during their time on the run. She could do small spells without her wand but had never tried a powerful spell before. She was lucky to get here in one piece. No wonder she had felt tired. She was still double checking her facts when Madam Pomfrey opened the curtain.

"Oh good, you are awake, dear." She smiled gently at the young woman. She pulled the curtain open more before addressing her again. "The headmaster wants to talk to you when you wake up and those boys keep coming back trying to see you." She glanced toward the door. Hermione sat up.

"Who were the boys?" She asked. "Mr. Black and Mr. Lupin found you and they brought you here with Mr. Potter." Madam Pomfrey told her as she waved her wand to run a diagnostic spell.

'Potter?' Mione thought. Her eyes went wide with realization. 'James! Oh Merlin, that means Pettigrew was here too and Snape.' "Oh Merlin" She whispered.

"Did you say something?" the older witch asked. "Oh, no." she told her quickly.

"Alright dear, I'm going to get the headmaster please stay here." She ordered the young girl, before she walked out. She returned a few minutes later with Headmaster Dumbledore. She quickly went to her office leaving them alone. Hermione couldn't help it, she rushed forward and hugged the older man, with tears in her eyes.

Albus smiled at her, his eyes twinkling. He patted her back. "Are you okay, child?" Mione backed up and sat on her bed. "Yes sir. I'm sorry." "It is okay. Would you like to explain why it seems you know me?" "Yes, sir. I will." she nodded and proceed to recount her trip to his time. Dumbledore sat in the chair and listened to her story. They decided that the best option would be to search for a way to send her home. In the meantime, she were going to attend classes as a transfer student, under the name Hermione Jane.

"Madam Pomfrey says that you will be out by dinner time. You may come to the professor entrance and I will introduce and sort you." He said in a gentle voice. She thought for a minute. "Sir, I don't have anything here but my bag. I had it tucked in my robes. It has some clothes, books and several other things, but no school robes." "I will arrange for somethings to be brought to your dormitory. They will be sent there after your sorting." He tells her standing up. "Good afternoon Miss Jane. He nodded before walking out of the room.

She laid down on the bed, trying to think of everything that she would have to face. Luckily, the Black girls were not here nor Lucius. She tried to remember Sirius and Remus's stories about their time at school. Barty Crouch Jr. would be here. Alecto Avery was here and friends with Snape. She frowned. It could be worse she thought. She rolled over and took a nap till she was woken for dinner.

"Attention Students. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are pleased to announce the arrival of a new student. Miss Hermione Jane." Dumbledore announced as the girl walked in the side door. "Professor McGonagall if you would." She stepped forward with the sorting hat. She barely placed the hat down when it yelled "Gryffindor!" The headmaster smiled. "You may join your housemates." The girl nodded shyly and walked over to the table with her head down. She choose a seat closest to the head table. Keeping her head down on her plate, she slowly picked at her food.

She glanced around at the people trying to talk to her. She didn't answer, just nodding. Dinner passed slowly. When most the people were done eating Professor McGonagall walked over to her. She smiled down at the girl. "I would like to introduce you to Head Girl. She will be showing you around along with being in most your classes." Hermione nodded and followed her to the other end of the table. Before stopping at a group she knew she would have to face eventually.

"Miss Evans?" Professor McGonagall asked the girl with long red hair, who reminded her of Ginny. She knew it wasn't, she knew it was the future mother of her best friend. "Yes, Professor?" She asked standing up.

"Miss Evans, I would like for you to show Miss Jane around." She moved to the side and let the girls see each other. "Of course, Professor. It is right this way." The red-head walked toward the exit with the shy looking girl following her.

The mauraders' eyes were following the girls. They were curious about the new girl, but Remus pointed out how shy she was acting. "We should wait till tomorrow to talk to her. Give her sometime to adjust." The other boys agreed it did make sense.

"I'm Lily." She told the girl walking slowly. After a few steps she heard her. "I'm Hermione."

Lily smiles at the girl. "So where do you come from?" A few more minutes later, she got her answer. "I had private tutors." "Oh, why didn't you do it this year?" She asked hoping the girl would open up. She glanced over to see her eyes gloss over. "They died." Lily stopped at the portrait guarding the entrance. She looked at the girl. "Who died?" Hermione went quiet again. Lily sighed and said the password. "Gillyweed". The door opened. She led her though the familiar common room. She showed her the extra bed that appeared with her trunk next to it. "Well, I'll just leave you to get settled."

Lily was almost to the door, when the girl who was on her bed answered her. "My parents and some of my friends." Lily turned around confused. "What?" "You asked who died." Lily's eyes went wide in realization. "Oh, I'm sorry. If you want to talk, I'll be around." The new girl nodded and closed her curtains. Lily sighed and turned around to go to the common room.

~ I know she has a massive change in her attitude between talking to Albus vs. talking to Lily and being in front of everyone. My reasoning was that she knew Dumbledore before and in my mind he still looks the same. She has never met Lily and even though she knew some of the other people, they don't look the same. I mean they are 17 now and are in their late 30's when she meets them. Albus however was 115ish when he died and is 97ish in Marauders will be in the next chapter. I just wanted to tell you, that I think I will be updating this story on Thursdays.~
