Chapter 7
What to Do???
"That was sweet." Hermione said once Ginny is seated
"Did you know Hermione, Harry is really cute and I can't really help it not to cuddle him, you know." Ginny answered back
Professor McGonagall cleared her throat to get the attention of everyone present.
"I like everyone here present to not say anything about this matter when you leave outside this four walls of this office. Is that clear."
When she saw everyone nod their heads, she smiled then added, "Now the problem we should ask ourselves is what to do?"
"I think I know what to do, Minerva." Said the portrait of Albus Dumbledore.
Everyone turned their surprised faces in the direction of Dumbledore's portrait. All waited, wanting to hear the suggestion of one of the greatest wizard of all time. "The best thing that we can do is to find the book where James got the potion. Then in finding it we will be able to know how long it will take to make the antidote. Prior to that we will be able to know how long will Harry be a child as we can make plans to go with it."
All nodded in agreement as it is really a good idea to start searching the book first so as to know how will they handle this situation. Suddenly, Hermione's eyes widened and jumped in her seat as if she was electrocuted and almost ran to the door if not a voice of Ginny saying, "What's the matter, Hermione? Is something Ron?"
Well that put Hermione back into her senses and said, "No in fact, I think I remembered I read something about de-aging someone with the use of potions somewhere. I just need to remember where but I know I remembered I saw it near the back part of the restricted section, but arrgh!" She really hated it when she knew something but she couldn't seem to remember it. It's just that she knows that she had read that kind of information elsewhere.
"Don't worry Hermione we won't hold it against you. We all know that you are one of the smartest witch in our age." Ron said trying to assure and to calm Hermione down. No one wants a panicky Hermione though after they had seen what a panicky Hermione would do.
10 years after the war: August 31…
You can find one Hermione Granger panicking. You might ask why though. Well she accepted the role as a teacher in Charms as Professor Flitchwick decided to retire. For one thing, Teddy Lupin and George Weasley decided to prank her. They learned that she became the Charms professor and wanted to give her a "congratulations" in a form of a prank. Sadly they didn't think Hermione will act that way.
George decided with his young successor in the arts of pranking to change the lesson plans of Hermione into a magical parchment like the marauders map. Well the problem starts when Hermione wanted to review her lesson plans for the year. She saw to her horror that her lesson plans were different and any charm she tried to cast was no avail. She started panicking. They didn't know that Hermione is very nervous in being a professor and she wanted everything to go everything as planned.
They didn't find Hermione for the rest of the day and the day and a half afterwards. Almost everyone were worried about what happened to Hermione. After a while, Ron found Hermione in her office in Hogwarts and there they found her writing, reading at the same time with the look in her eyes that she didn't get any sleep and her hair all bushy and disarray. In other words she looked scary.
There they learned what happened and Teddy and George were grounded… Both of them will be under surveillance and no riding of brooms for a month. Plus Harry, Andromeda, and Hermione in Teddy's place was scolded. And All of the Weasley's especially Mrs. Weasley shouted at her son about not being a good role model for Teddy. They all did it at the same time though. They didn't even mind that all of them are yelling to the point the you can't even make out the words that are being said.
Back to the present…
While Hermione's paniking a while ago, her mind is not and it's trying to find the information about the book in the depths of her mind's knowledge.
At least now, Hermione is a little calm. No worries that she'll go into panicky mode. With her calmness, she remembered the book and immediately run out of the office before anyone could stop her.
All in the room just looked at her retreating back shocked at Hermione's actions. Before they could come back from their state of shock, Hermione came back with a smile that is clearly shown in her eyes that something good happened or she remembered something good while holding an old looking book in her chest.
