A/N: I thought the last one was funny too: P just so you know, I think I am going to start going back to fix my errors. Okay, now on to the story!' Sorry it took so long to update. I got stuck and so that's why this took a while, I kept changing my mind… I skip a few years into Brianne's stories… I didn't have anything to tell for the time in between first year and the year she finds out how to time travel. I hope yall like it. And once I get into the time travel, there will be Dramione and all sorts of fun stuff… Oh and happy Late New Year! Which I guess I could say that all year…
Chapter five: Welcome to the past.
OoOo Mira-Bella oOoO
I didn't quit looking for answers over the next three years. And it only became more difficult as time progressed. After a while I started running out of clues. I had left myself a reasonably good amount of clues, each one better than the next. I really appreciated the help, even if it was my own. Help was help.
"Brianne!" Someone said shaking me awake. I had apparently fallen asleep in the library again. I became aware that I was still wearing my ball gown; it was hard to forget about the long green silk dress… After my grandfather had won the war, the teachers had made it a tradition that there would be A Christmas ball each year on Christmas Eve, I think it was so that we could have a little hope, and so that we could have a little fun.
This had been the first year I had been able to attend the annual Christmas ball. Seeing as I was only a fourth year. I went with a fifth year, Eric Benson, he had to be the most popular boy in school; which had made a lot of girls mad at me.
"What." I said sleepily as I lifted my head off of the book I had been looking at, I could still smell the musty old paper. Ali was standing in front of me looking at me with piercing eyes. I couldn't help but notice how disappointed in me she looked. I had a pretty good feeling as to why she looked disappointed.
"Please don't tell me you ditched your date to come research the 'supposed spell.'" She said frowning. She had always wished that I would put a little less time into this spell and a little more time with social events. I'm not denying that I spend too much time on this, because I definitely do, but it's important to me. It gives me purpose.
"No, we parted ways at midnight and then when I got back the dorm and couldn't sleep I came up here." I said remembering the night's events. "Ali, I am so close to getting it. I think I almost have the wrist movements down and the words are so close that I vibrate when I put the two together." I could feel my eyes slowly closing, "I'm so close that I can almost hear them talking."
"Mira, I know you think you are close, and I am sure that you are. But you are putting way too much into this." Ali said sitting down across from me. "You are working yourself past exhaustion and you barely eat anymore. Is your health worth changing everything?" She asked me quietly.
I knew exactly where Ali stood on the whole time travel thing. She liked to believe that everything happens for a reason and that what happened all those years ago shouldn't be changed, that it couldn't be changed… But I think differently. I'm not doing this to change something for my own selfish reasons. I was doing this for the world. No one and I mean no one in their right minds wanted my grandfather to be in the position he was in, no one wanted the harsh punishments that they normally received. And Draco Malfoy's, my father's, death had affected a lot of people. It wasn't only me.
"It's worth it." I told her with so much certainty that I could almost see the doubt leave her eyes. "You grew up with both of your parents. I didn't, Ali, All I want is to know and maybe save him… And maybe I want to help bring down Grandfather." I smirked. "No one tells me what to do."
"Would you like me to help?" She asked smiling at me.
"Yeah, I would really like that…." I said smiling. As long as I had my friends, I knew that I'd be able to do this.
~Two weeks later. ~
"Okay, so what are the wrist movements?" Ali asked me for the fifth time as we sat down by the lake. Teddy and Jace had decided to join us today; not that they were much help at the moment.
"A complete clock wise turn, keep your wrist firm, and when you get to the end flick it quickly.
"Holy salt!" Ali said when she tried the movement. She could feel the strong vibrations that Brianne had told her about. "Bri! That is amazing, it felt like my feet lifted off of the ground!" she said excitedly.
"I told you… I think that's what we are supposed to feel. The hint I found in one of those books was 'strong vibrations lead the way, one step closer to your leave…" I said frowning. I had always loved riddles; it only made sense for me to leave a riddle.
"Have you tried it with the words?" She asked as she sat down under the big oak tree.
"Yeah, Brianne, words might help." Jace teased me as he rested his head against a large rock.
"No." I said trying not to blush.
"And why ever not," Teddy asked curiously.
"Right now I am afraid to, and besides… how will I get back?" I asked. I had really put a lot of thought into that. I actually had no clue how to get back… I thought that maybe if I said the spell backwards then I could get back… but if that failed I was stuck somewhere else until I figure out the counter to the spell.
"You won't ever know until you try it." Jace said daringly. Sometimes I wished I could smack him upside the head, I had to remind myself that he was bigger than me. Not that I couldn't take him.
"Okay, fine." I said holding up my wand. "But Rosalie is coming with me." I said grabbing her wrist.
"Fine I will go with you." She said smiling. "Do you want to do the honors?" I just nodded at her and closed my eyes as I envisioned the date of when my parents first met each other. It was a story I had heard hundreds of times.
"Trac-TUS-itum!" I enunciated carefully as I waved my arm. I screamed when I realized my feet were no longer on the ground, I could hear Ali screaming as well. We had done it! I couldn't believe it! I watched as gold and silver light flashed all around us.
"Oh my Bloody Merlin." We both said as we landed on solid ground again. I took in the all of the pinks yellows and whites that painted the walls. So this was what a muggle ice cream parlor looked like. I could hear people chatting on about nothing and music that was emitting from a little radio on the counter. We both looked at each other with wide eyes. When I looked up I saw two things at once… First I saw mom, and then dad. I had successfully created time travel. We would go down in history… again.
OoOo Hermione oOoO
"They did it…" Hermione said with a big smile on her face. "My baby invented a new form of time travel…" She could almost sense the smirk that painted Draco's face. It definitely matched her own smile.
"I am proud to call her my niece!" Ginny squealed with a smile.
Taylor had a dazed look on her face. She was obviously choosing her words. A smirk spread across her face… "Well I have two things to say. First, she's in my house, and second…. I helped teach her what she knows."
They all laughed, they were still excited.
OoOo Tom/ Voldy oOoO
"GAH!" Tom said as he flopped back down onto the couch, he had only been home a whole ten minutes and he was already board out of his evil little mind. He found himself to be entertained by the book, and when that was all said and done he had nothing to do.
"Meow…" Fluffy said from where he sat licking his paws on the coffee table. He looked amused as Tom scowled in his direction. How could a cat lick itself clean?
"Fluffy, how can you lick you paws with the same tongue that licks your butt? How would you like it if I went around licking my butt and then washing my paws? Scratch that… You are a cat; you wouldn't give a rat's arse…" He smacked his head with the palm of his hand. Not only was he talking to the cat again… but he was also making bud puns. Rats arse…
"What shall we do today M. Fluffy VonMeow?
"Meowwww," the cat said looking at him curiously.
Tom bolted up right. "Fluffy! That's a wonderful idea!" He suddenly frowned. "I need to stop talking to the cat…" He got up and stood in front of the T.V. He was going to order a paper view movie.
"Hmmmm… What shall we watch Fluffy?" He asked looking through the channels. Titanic… no… Perry Hotter and the order of the hawk… toy story… Jurassic park… "What is a Twilight?" He asked clicking on the movie… He sat back down on the couch and watched. Ten minutes into it he scowled…. "WHAT THE BLOODY HELL!" He shouted looking at the screen in terror. He looked down at Fluffy and then back up at the T.V. "DIDN'T I KILL THAT MORON THREE YEARS AGO!" He didn't like where this was going. It was the Ghost of Cedric's passed.
~a few minutes later~
"Since when are Vampires 'sparkling Vegetarians?' this is lame…" He snorted rolling his eyes.
~Ten more minutes later~
"Tom!" He sat up quickly at the sound of his name. He rubbed his eyes.
"Hello Amethyst." He said flatly.
"What are you watching?" She asked looking at the screen.
"Well I was watching Twilight." He said in a bored tone… "I think I fell asleep when the kid I MURDERED three years ago started stalking that one girl who I don't like…"He sat thoughtfully for a moment. "Did I mention I murdered him? And that Jacob Black fellow needs a haircut… me and Mr. Fluffy Von Meow, thought he was a she… a very under developed she… "
"Yes sweet heart, I believe that you did. And it was nearly four years ago…" She was trying not to laugh at his last statement. His could only get more interesting.
OoOo Hermione oOoO
"Hey Ginny," Hermione said looking over at her sister as she took a can of soda out of the fridge. She was still bouncing from what they had read, and soda calmed her. You would think it would have the opposite effect "You wanted to know what dad does in his spare time…"
"Yes… Why, what did he do?" Ginny asked looking worried. She worried that he would revert back to his old ways.
"Well mum was telling me this morning before she and him left that arranged millions of dominoes in a line and made designs out of them, and late last night he started Writing his 'autobiography.'" She said trying not to laugh.
"He needs to take up knitting…" Ginny said laughing…"Or something normal."
"Hey Ginny, Hey Hermione." Taylor said walking through the front door. She hadn't even bothered to knock. She acted as if she owned the place.
"Hi Taylor," They said simultaneously. She smiled. There was a look in her eye that said 'I know something you don't know.'
"You are up to something." Draco stated as he walked into the room.
"I am not up to anything, Draco." She said smirking in an innocent way. "If I were up to something you would know by now, so therefore I am up to nothing…" She said. Taylor froze as she thought about her words, they had made no sense.
"Taylor, you are forgetting I am a Slytherin too, I know when a Slytherin is lying." He said snatching up Hermione's soda and finishing it off in one gulp.
"DRACO!" Hermione shouted as she slapped her husband on the arm. "Get your own soda!"
"Why get my own when I can just steal yours… Have you ever heard the saying, what's mine is yours. Well it's the same when you put it the other way." That earned him another slap.
Life was always interesting.
