Chapter 2

Teddy held on tight to Lily Luna when they were engulfed in swirls of sand. But as soon as it had come, it was gone. Teddy opened his eyes to find himself on a very familiar Platform 9 ¾, with very unfamiliar people on it. Usually, Teddy knew everyone on the platform, but here he knew no one.
Teddy was about to ask Lily Luna what she was playing with, when he heard someone scream "Sirius!" Teddy's head jerked up and saw a raven haired boy being tackled by someone who looked strangely like his godfather. He heard the boy named Sirius yell, "Hogwarts 1975, here we come!"
Teddy looked down at the object Lily Luna was holding and recognized the time turner her father was working on re-creating. Knowing what had happened, Teddy jumped on the Hogwarts Express, found an empty compartment and shut Lily Luna and himself inside.
"Lily Luna, we have travelled into the past. " He whispered to her, fearful someone would overhear, "We need to be very careful here because this is a very dangerous place." She looked at him knowingly and nodded. "Teddy, what is going to happen to us?" "I don't know," He replied "but we are going to go see Professor Dumbledore and he will help us get back home."
Just as he finished saying that, the compartment door opened and three girls stood in the doorway, staring at Teddy and Lily Luna. "Sorry!" The redhead in the middle exclaimed "We'll find another compartment," and the door closed. By this point, Lily Luna was very confused. That woman looked just like her grandma, the one whose picture was on her daddy's desk at work.
"Grandma?" Lily Luna whispered, as she stared at the door that had just closed. "Grandma," Teddy confirmed, "She doesn't know who you are though, and we can't let her know that you are her granddaughter." Lily nodded again and quickly fell asleep in Teddy's arms. Teddy looked out the window, wondering how he was going to get out of this mess.
When the Hogwarts Express pulled into Hogsmeade station, Teddy and Lily Luna were the first two to jump of the train and run to the carriages. Teddy jumped into the first carriage in the line and soon they were off to the castle.
As the carriage was pulled along, Lily Luna and Teddy stared up at the castle in awe, it was beautiful. The black castle with its shining windows was outlined by the deep indigo sky, but as soon as it stopped, Teddy grabbed Lily Luna and jumped out of the carriage.
Having been to the Headmaster's office a few times, Teddy knew exactly where to go. He ran through the halls with Lily Luna in his arms until he reached the gargoyle. "Lemon Drops!" Teddy guessed and the gargoyle jumped aside. He ascended the stairs and knocked on the bronze knocker. "Come in," he heard from inside, and he entered the room.
"Hello," the old wizard behind the desk said pleasantly, "I do not believe we have met. My name is Albus Dumbledore." "My name is Teddy Lupin, and this is Lily Luna Potter, I am sorry to bother you sir, but we have travelled here from the future, the year 2013 to be exact, and we are not sure how to get back." Teddy replied
"You do seem to be in quite the predicament. How exactly did you get here?" Dumbledore asked, "Time turner, sir" "I may have a way for you to get back to your time, but it may be a few weeks until you are able to return home. May I ask how old you are and which house you are in so I may place you in the correct dormitories?" Dumbledore said.
"I am fifteen and Lily Luna is six, I am in Gryffindor and Lily Luna obviously hasn't been able to come to Hogwarts yet." Teddy said. "I will then have you go to the fifth year Gryffindor boy dormitories, and I will have Lily Luna in the fifth year Gryffindor girl dormitories," Dumbledore decided " Also, I am assuming you are related to Remus Lupin, and Lily Luna is related to James Potter, correct?" "You are right sir, Remus Lupin is my father and my mother is Nymphadora Tonks. James Potter is Lily Luna's grandfather, and her grandmother is Lily Evans." Teddy stated.
Dumbledore seemed highly amused by Teddy's reply but continued to say "You two may eat up here rather than cause a scene in the Great Hall. When you are done you can go to the Gryffindor dormitories, the password is 'Fairy Wings'. I am also assuming that you do not have any clothes, so we will provide you with some clothes until the weekend when you can go to Diagon Alley and buy some clothes. Also, it might look very suspicious if you have the same last names as James and Remus, I suggest different last names. Goodnight!"
Dumbledore waved his wand and a plate of sandwiches and a pitcher of pumpkin juice appeared on his desk. He then exited his office and proceeded to the Great Hall.
After Dumbledore left, Teddy and Lily Luna grabbed sandwiches and a goblet of pumpkin juice. "I think our last name should be Granger, after Auntie Hermione, do you agree?" Lily Luna gave a little nod and said "I will be Lily Luna Granger! But what about Mommy and Daddy?" "We could say that they are Aurors and had to leave for a few weeks, and that Professor Dumbledore was nice enough to let us stay here until they returned." Teddy said "Okay!" She replied
Once all of the sandwiches were gone, Lily Luna and Teddy left the Headmaster's office and walked to the Gryffindor common room. Once they reached the Fat Lady, Teddy said "Fairy Lights", and the portrait swung open. The two stepped inside and were met by stares from every single member of Gryffindor House.
