~Padfoot And Marley~

Harry and Neville entered the Three Broomsticks, trying to appear as casual as possible. "Oh, hello again boys!" Madam Rosmerta greeted from behind the bar, Harry nodded politely in her direction as he scanned the large room.

Neville nudged his side "What are you looking for?" he whispered.

"Shush, atleast one of the Marauders-if not dad maybe Sirius or Lupin," Harry whispered back.

Neville looked confused "Marauders? Lupin knew your dad?"

"Shh!" Harry hissed, suddenly he'd spotted his jackpot; Sirius was sitting with Marlene McKinnon at a table in the back corner of the room. "C'mon, and don't say anything," he warned, motioning for Neville to follow.

"Marley, I admit I was a bit of an arse yesterday..."

"A bit? Sirius Orion Black you are such a liar...more like a ton!"

"Look, I'm sorry-okay? Do you forgive me?"

"Hmm...I'm not so sure Black."

"You're not going to make this easy for me, are you McKinnon?"

"Definitely not."

"Why?"

"Because you are a total, utter, arse...and-"

"And-?"

"That's what I love about you."

*Kiss*

Harry cringed slightly, then pictured Ginny and suddenly it didn't seem as gross. "That's Sirius, my godfather, and his girlfriend Marlene McKinnon-so I guess we'll start here," he told Neville, who nodded along obediently.

He slowly approached the table and cleared his throat "Er, excuse me?" The young couple flew apart, backs against their respective chairs. Harry found the thought of interrupting his much younger Godfather Sirius snogging the young blonde lady Marlene McKinnon quite funny, and chuckled slightly.

"Can I help you?" Sirius asked, a bit annoyed.

Harry noticed Marlene was staring at his eyes curiously. "Do you know who I am?" he demanded.

Sirius shook his head "No. Should I?"

"Okay, I haven't much time. My name is Potter, Harry Potter. Son of your best friends James and Lily, I've come from the future," Harry stated flatly.

Sirius's blue eyes flew wide open in shock "Merlin's beard...but the prophecy..." he whispered.

"He has Lily's eyes..." Marlene mused.

Sirius's face grew-well-serious. "How, how are you alive? There's a prophecy! The Dark Lord is at large, he's planning to kill you and-"

"-and I beat him-somehow the curse backfired, but my parents were killed. And so was Marlene and her entire family along with many other families by Death Eaters," Harry interrupted, there was no time to waste.

Marlene's already pale face grew paler and her bright blue eyes darkened to sapphire. "Excuse me?"

Sirius looked very upset "James and Lily? Oh Marley no!" The he looked confused. "How could this happen? When? Please!"

Harry continued "You're Order of the Phoenix members, highly targeted. "The last week of October. My parents. The McKinnons. The Bones. And Fabian and Gideon Prewett."

Sirius grasped Marlene's hand across the table, both of their eyes filling with tears. "Don't worry, that's why we're here! To change the past, to warn you so none of these horrible things come true." Harry patted Sirius on the back.

Marlene looked up at him in disbelief "Tell us what you know," she spoke softly.

Harry rubbed his chin "My parents used the Fidelius Charm and asked Sirius to be Secret Keeper, they are going to switch to Peter Pettigrew because they think he's a less likely suspect, but that's a fatal mistake. Pettigrew is now in the Dark Lord's ranks. The Dark Lord will murder my parents, he offered to let my mother live but her love is what made the curse rebound off of me, I'm famous now The Boy Who Lived, but I'd give it up to have my parents back, At Hogwarts my friends and I have established a new club as Dark Forces are at large once again-Dumbledore's Army. I've travelled back in time with my best friend Ron Weasley and some of his siblings-their mother Molly is the sister of Fabian and Gideon Prewett who are to be murdered, also Susan Bones niece of Edgar as you can predict with what's to come with only she and her parents survivng-the Bones line is extinct, and this is my friend Neville-son of Aurors Frank and Alice Longbottom who are going to be tortured into insanity and he'll have to live with his grandmother. We want to change history, get our families back. Please Sirius, don't let my parents change Secret Keepers or if we could tell the Aurors of Pettigrew's betrayl plans when the time comes and get him in Azkaban-because the thing is, Marlene will be the last McKinnon murdered and on the same night you will be charged and sentenced to life in Azkaban for the murder of Pettigrew, you will be so angry at his betrayl and the death of my parents that you'll beat him up in an alley, he'll transform into his animagi rat and escape, faking his own death. We need a plan, are you guys willing to work with us?"

Marlene looked skeptical "Are you absolutely sure?"

"I come from the year 1995, I'm positive. You in?" Harry demanded.

Sirius begged Marlene with his eyes "Marley, what do you think?" he asked.

"If you're in, you have to believe us, that much is absolutely crucial," Harry said. Neville nodded along beside him "Yeah."

"We're in, what's next?" Sirius asked.

"We find the other Marauders, but not Pettigrew, just mum and dad, and Remus Lupin...this is going to be difficult, time travel is always tricky, and quite confusing, so bear with us-and we'll play it by ear," Harry replied.

Sirius placed his hand on top of Marlene's, Harry and Neville placed their hands down as well. "Agreed."


A/N: So did you like Sirius and Marlene? The next chapter will contain mostly Harry and Neville with the Marauders (JamesxLily) and they find Remus by himself somewhere.
