AN: I own nothing.

Ch. 12

After the group of six had eaten their breakfast; they had made their way to the Room of Requirement, where they were met with Professor Dumbledore with a Ministry official, who would be overlooking the testing. When they were inside the room; they found James Potter and Lily Evans waiting for them as well, where ten teenagers mingled into one big group and talking with each other.

Lily asked, "I can understand everyone but James and Sirius being here to be tested out early, but what is going on?"

The Headmaster moved over to the front of the room and said, "I can explain that." Everyone sat down into their desks as Dumbledore took center stage, "I am testing you out early is because I don't think Hogwarts would be able to teach the MacArthur sisters anymore than they need to, after all that they have done to take down Tom Riddle Jr., why else they should be here. Another thing is because all of you have outstandings in most of your classes. So I am just giving all of you a little push into starting your futures, whatever they may be." He out stretched his hands, "Does that answer your question Miss Evans?"

Lily just nodded her head.

Dumbledore then asked, "Anything else? No. Then lets let Mr. Turner conduct the testing shall we?" With that the Headmaster took his seat at the corner of the room; while Mr. Turner from the Ministry handed out some paper and quills for them to answer some questions before the practical side of the test started.

The written part of the test took up until lunch time to finish for all of the classes that they have ever took. During lunch the group went down to the Great Hall and had lunch with their friends, Severus even ate at the Gryffindor table; where he was getting glares from the snakes and wondering eyes from the other tables. No one bothered telling him off during the lunch hour, if Black, Lupin, and Potter had not chase him away, then no one else was going to do a thing about it. After the lunch hour was done and over with; the ten teenagers had made their way back to the Room of Requirement where they were dealing the the practical side of things.

Dumbledore was sitting back in the chair that he was sitting moments earlier; but Mad-Eye Moody was also there to give some of the practical testing with Mr. Turner, to bring the testing an early end for the day. No one wanted to be there more than they needed to be. The first one up for the practical with Moody was Sirius; who managed to turn Mad-Eye's hair turn orange in a blink of a flick of the wrist; which caused Mr. Turner to cough into a laughing fit.

Moody growled, "Watch it boy, or you will be missing an eye here soon."

Sirius waved his hand again and Mad-Eye's hair was back to the way it was; a dark brownish color, Sirius corked out saying, "But you needed something to bring out the fire in your eyes sir."

Char, Anne, and Hermione were doing all that they could from laughing at Sirius's poor attempted at humoring with the man. The girls were trying to hold onto their laughs with their hands, thinking it would stop it from squeaking out.

Lily glared at them, "You three are no help. All you are doing is encouraging him."

Anne leaned over into Lily's ears, "It is the way he said it Lily. 'But you needed something to bring the fire in your eyes . .' I don't about you Lily but that sounds like a pick up line if I have ever heard one."

After a while with Lily thinking it over. "Oh My God!"

Then most of the room lost it when Sirius managed to pool the wool over Moody eyes from a transfigured handkerchief that Mad-Eye had in his pocket, when Sirius found an open spot to use it against him. "Boy! I am going to hurt you."

Mr. Turner then spoke up, "It's a good thing that he is done with his testing then. It is now Ms. Evan's turn to do as she wishes with you," as the tester laughed his private little joke.

Mad-Eye grumbled, "Funny John, very funny. How about you going after Dark Wizards in the middle of the night some time, I would like to see you try it."

The tester then looked up at the aging man before him, from his quill and paper, "I don't think so Alastor for the due fact is this, you are paid and trained for that kind of grunt work, not I. Now; back to work!"

Lily shot a stunner at Moody, deflected it. Then fired a snake in front of her, which she answered with a flame spell that ate up the snake in seconds and then fired a water curse at the fighting experience man before her, who through up one of his shields that kept him dry. She then fired another spell that ended up wrapping rope around him, which caused him to drop his wand upon the floor.

"This. Is. Not. My. Day. Dumbledore, do I really have to be here?"

"Yes Alastor; you said that you would do it, not matter how long it would take."

"I was only joking."

"I was not. Now; lets see out Lupin pans out."

Lily moved out of the way; when Remus moved to the middle of the room, for his testing. Remus put up his shields first before firing one shot. Moody then spoke, "Good; Mr. Lupin, you are following your teaching from class I see. Why is so Mr. Lupin?"

Remus sighed, "Because you never know where your attacker will be coming from, nor what he or she would being firing first. You may not have the time to through a shield up, once you are engaged in the fight."

Then Remus fired to spells after the other; one was a weak spell that Moody through, then the second hit its target but making Mad-Eye fall to his knees. Alastor growled, "Someone has been doing a lot of thinking and I am glad that it is you Mr. Lupin that knew what he was doing throughout this testing."

Remus smiled, "Thank you sir."

Moody than asked, "Who is next?"

Mr. Turner then grabbed another paper. "Anne MacArthur is next."

"Come on girly, let's see what you have?"

Remus Lupin and Anne McBride had then changed places upon the floor. Both Moody and Anne had such dark looks upon their faces. To where most of the people had believed that they were at war with each other, or something quite close to it. Anne closed her eyes; she used her hearing to do what was needed to be done, for something told her that Mad-Eye was up to something. When she opened her eyes she fired a smoke spell upon the man before her, which made it into a fog like ring around her and Moody. Then a gold spark through out of Anne's wand and hit her target, with a great loud bang and thug. She used another spell to fan the fogyish smoke away, where everyone saw a lion sitting upon the man's chest that was before them. The lion then licked the man's cheek as it sat upon him.

Dumbledore laughed, "He looks good upon you Alastor, you have gotten yourself a pet."

"Not another word Albus or I will tell McGonagall where to find your sweets that she has been trying to get her hands on. She has been trying to through those things away for the last ten years or so, saying something about rotating your teeth or something."

"Oh dear, now we wouldn't want her to find out, now would we? Well, I think Ms. Hermione MacArthur is next."

"How many after her?"

"Three."

"Good." Once Anne and Hermione had changed places; Alastor Moody was trying to use his deadly face, where most dark wizards were known to fear with. What he saw from Hermione; she was not buying his act one bit, and he was not too happy about it. "Alright girly, show me what you got."

Hermione had thrown what came first to her mind; she through a protronus charm, which brought a flash of light to where it had brought the wizard to close to blindness for a few seconds. Which gave her a window to send a spell that brought a round a hives that he could not stop himself from itching and brought that test to a close for Hermione.

Mr. Turner grumbled softly, "Bright young lady; she could be one of the healers to find a cure or something."

Dumbledore chuckled, "That she can."

Alastor had to leave the room for the hospital wing to get the hives taken care of; which had left Char, James, and Severus. This left Mr. Turner to deal with them himself. Which took each one of them about ten minuets to deal with him each. In the end; everyone had passed their tests for all of their classes, just before the winter holidays and they were free to do as they wished until June for their graduation with their school.

The next day eight teenagers were riding the train; on their way back to England, where they would be going to Potter Manor for the Winter Holidays. Their plans were to spend the holidays together before going their separate ways for work and finding a place to live. On the train ride. The three girls told James and Lily that they were from the future, once that was out of the beg; both Lily and James were asking questions.

Lily asked, "Tells about our futures please?"

Hermione spoke first, "Severus is a Potions Professor for Hogwarts and one of the best that has ever been know."

Anne said, "Remus was a DADA Professor at Hogwarts for a year or two."

"Go Moony," was heard from James and Sirius that blend into one voice.

Char said, "There is nothing to be said for Sirius, because whatever had happened to him, will not happen to him now. All thanks to Peter that is."

Sirius asked, "What do you mean?"

Hermione said in a sadden voice, "You were sent to Azkaban for twelve years for the murder of James and Lily Potter and Peter Pettigrew; which you never had done, it was all Voldemort and Peter's doing. Then you were cleared of some of the charges when both came up in the media light."

Severus sadly said, "So it was a dark future in some ways for the three of you?"

"Yes it was," said the three girls in one.

For the rest of the ride was spent in quietness, not much talking but mainly lost in their own minds. During the two weeks that they were at the Potter Manor, everyone was involved in snow ball fights and other outdoor fun that they could manage at the time. On Christmas day; each guy had given their girlfriend wedding rings for Christmas, knowing that each one of them wanting to get married that coming year. Hermione was given an emerald and diamond set, Anne had a sapphire and diamond set, Char a onyx and diamond set from his family, and Lily was given a pearl and diamond set. Each of the ladies fell in love with their man that day.
