Professor Dumbledore believes them, but it won't make any difference to anybody.
The words of some thirteen-year-olds won't make any difference to those who've forgotten how to listen.
Everybody's convinced Sirius is guilty, and then the clock strikes midnight.
Dumbledore starts talking to Hermione, saying stuff the other three don't understand - and then he leaves and Hermione pulls Bloom to her feet.
They got the fact that Sirius is being held in the top of the Dark tower, but that's all.
Hermione takes out a pendant with an incredibly long chain and loops it around Bloom and Harry's necks as well as around her own.
Bloom suddenly gets what professor Dumbledore meant by 'three turns should do it' - there's an hourglass in the middle of the pendant.
It's a Time Turner, it's how Hermione's been getting to all her classes.
She spins the pendant three times, and time reverses in a dizzying spin.
They actually see events happen in reverse, like a tape being played back on high-speed.
When it suddenly stops, the wing is entirely empty except for the three of them.
Bloom teleports them all out to near Hagrid's hut when they figure out where they're supposed to go.
They look around, only to see themselves confronting, and, in Bloom's case, heavily scaring Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle.
Teleporting is easy, it hardly gives off a magical signature - and Bloom was so focused on Draco right then that she didn't even notice the teleportation.
They see Hermione and Bloom both deck Draco hard, and then they hide just before he can see them.
"Not a word of this to anyone! I swear, one day I'll get that jumped-up mudblood, Granger. And as for Bloom! The mystery girl who's every teacher's favorite student. She'll get everything that's coming to her one day, mark my words! I'll have father ship her off far away - maybe off to Azkaban!"
Harry grabs Bloom's hand before she can get mad and clamps his other one around her mouth firmly.
When they can't hear the sound of his ranting or Crabbe and Goyle's loud breathing, they sneak back up and go to free Buckbeak.
They're in Hagrid's hut right now, and any moment they'll come out the back.
When they aren't coming, and Fudge is headed for the door, Bloom gets an idea and starts mumbling a spell.
It's one to make the target feel what you want them to - an Bloom wants her past self to feel like they have to leave.
They make their way to the trees behind them just as the four friends get to the Pumpkin patch their future selves were in.
After a minute, the four friends move up the slope to get a good view - leaving it clear for Harry, Bloom, and Hermione to get to Buckbeak.
Buckbeak recognizes Bloom at once, and he returns Harry and Hermione's bows at once as well.
They try to get Buckbeak to go with them, but it's when Hermione grabs a handful of dead ferrets that he follows them willingly.
They get away just in time, and they hear the sickening sound of the executioner chopping his axe into a nearby pumpkin.
Crows scatter everywhere, and Bloom can guess this is where she started crying.
They get Buckbeak safely into the forest, and Harry asks how saving Buckbeak will save Sirius.
None of them know, but it'll probably work out right - Bloom will make it work out right if she has to.
They make their way to the Whomping Willow, leaving Buckbeak with Bloom in the forest, and Harry and Hermione wait for the action to start.
They still don't know how Bloom calmed the tree, but they can't argue with the results.
Finally, the figures emerge from the tunnel: Sirius, Remus, Harry, Ron, Bloom, and Pettigrew - who is every bit as pathetic and disgusting as they remember.
Harry whispers to Hermione "See Bloom and I talking to Sirius? He's asking us to come live with him."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, and we jumped at the chance. When we free him, we'll never have to go back to the Dursleys."
Harry looks back at the forest, and adds "Which is really good, because I'm pretty sure Bloom's had it with them for a while - gods know I have. She's the only reason the past two summers have been bearable, I'm telling you Hermione."
Hermione grins, and says "Sounds like somebody likes you."
Harry blushes fiercely, and says "Hermione, it's not like that. Her adoptive parents here on Earth were killed, and she doesn't have anywhere else to go. Besides, her mission is to protect me - and she can't protect me if she's not with me, according to her."
Hermione raises an eyebrow, and says "Do you really think she's just following her mission? Harry, that's what brought her here and the reason she's our age, it's true. But do you honestly believe that she only sees her mission when she looks at you?"
Harry doesn't answer, and looks down at the ground.
"Harry, we're going to have to have a talk when Bloom's not in earshot. Starting with how her face turns bright red every time you two are within two feet of each other."
"Hermione, she's the best student in Hogwarts! Why would she like me as anything other than a friend?"
Hermione rolls her eyes, and mutters something about guys being clueless.
They suddenly hear a howl, and they recognize it as Lupin's.
Hermione and Harry watch as Lupin and Black fight, Pettigrew gets away, and Bloom flings the branch with magic - and suddenly they hear a howl coming from behind them.
Now they recognize it as Bloom's voice, and Harry whispers "What is she doing?"
"Saving our lives, but we should get moving."
Another howl pierces the air, and both kids get moving as Lupin comes closer.
They hide behind a tree, and Lupin disappears after a moment.
Hermione whispers "We have to find Bloom and Buckbeak."
Harry nods, and they step out from behind the tree - only for Professor Lupin to be there and be about to tear them to shreds.
Suddenly, the tree shakes and Buckbeak lands in front of them with Bloom on his back.
Buckbeak's claws come within centimeters of Lupin's face, and he glares angrily at them before loping off.
Bloom says "Professor Lupin is not having a good night, is he?"
Harry's never been so glad to see Buckbeak as right then, and he hugs Bloom gratefully as she slides down.
Suddenly, they feel a gust of cold air and realize the Dementors are here.
They watch Harry, Sirius, and Bloom struggle with them, watch Bloom keep Sirius alive and Harry from reaching Sirius's stage, and then Bloom can't take it anymore and pulls Harry forward and they do the Patronus Charm.
The Stag Patronus is Harry's, the Phoenix is Bloom's - and together they drive off the rest of the Dementors.
They see Bloom collapse on the shore and change back, and then soon they're flying on Buckbeak to the Dark Tower.
Bloom's transformed again, and they land on the landing pad outside Sirius's cell.
He's pacing, a condemned man - but stops and stares in shock when he sees the three of them.
He can't stop staring at Bloom in particular, until she smirks and says "Just wait, it gets better at sixteen."
Sirius laughs and says "We're going to get along brilliantly."
Hermione starts trying unlocking spells on the lock, but Bloom says "Harry? Remember how I got us out of the house last year?"
He breaks out into a grin, and says "Hermione, you can stop now."
Sirius looks confused at first, until Bloom steps forward and grabs the bars.
She starts glowing, and then pulls back on the bars - they blow out like a bomb was sitting behind them.
Sirius runs out and laughs hard, saying "You are a miracle worker!"
Bloom starts shaking, but shakes her head and the air goes a little colder as she absorbs enough heat to make it back to the room.
Sirius asks "Is there anything you can't do?"
"Not eat an entire feast after a night like tonight?"
He laughs again, liking this girl more and more as he gets to know her.
He gives Harry a discreet thumbs-up, making him go red again.
Sirius, Harry, and Hermione are riding Buckbeak, Bloom is flying next to them and loving it.
He shouts in freedom and joy - two things he hasn't known in twelve years.
He says "Harry, you really are your parents' son!"
He then bends down and asks "Seriously, is there anything she can't do?"
"Be cruel or mean-spirited? Magically, no. She's literally the most gifted kid in all of Hogwarts. Hermione wasn't kidding when she said Bloom's the strongest witch in our age - she's just not technically a witch. Also, she loves Phoenixes, ever since she saw Fawkes in Professor Dumbledore's office."
Sirius grins and says "She kind of reminds me of Lily."
Harry sees Sirius's mischievous grin, and blushes redder than Bloom's hair.
When they all land, Bloom helps Hermione off while Sirius slides Harry down.
"I'll be forever grateful to this, the three of you. And especially to you, Bloom, for keeping Harry safe all this time. Thank you again."
Bloom smiles and says "No problem Sirius. Are you sure we can't come with?"
She sounds semi-desperate, the idea of never going back to the Dursleys had appealed to her more than a little.
"One day, perhaps. For some time, life will be too…unpredictable."
Sirius scowls, he'd wanted to get to know Harry and Bloom as well.
Bloom says "Wait. Then let me do this for you."
She grasps Sirius's wrist, and starts murmuring something under her breath.
She starts glowing, and the glow spreads to him.
"A spell to protect you. You'll feel a flash of heat when danger is coming, and the heat will grow until your safe again. Not the most pleasant thing, but you'll know it when it happens."
She looks apologetic, but Sirius smiles and thanks her again.
They look up and see a shooting star, just as Sirius takes off on Buckbeak and they fly off together.
Suddenly, they hear a familiar sound: the clock.
It's starting to strike twelve.
Bloom musters all her remaining strength, and teleports them back just before the twelfth chime.
They appear, and Bloom instantly changes back to her human form, just as Dumbledore is backing out of the room and shutting the door.
He knows they're there, but looks up so they don't mess up the whole universe.
"Well?" Harry says "It's done. Sirius is free."
Dumbledore asks "What's done?" with a twinkle in his eyes, and swings the door open again - just as Bloom, Harry, and Hermione fade from existence in the room.
Bloom instantly goes over to her bed and crashes on it, falling asleep as soon as her head hits the pillow.
Ron asks "How'd you get over there? You were just here? And what happened to Bloom?"
Harry and Hermione share a glance, and Hermione asks 'What do you think Harry? Too much for one night?"
Harry nods mischievously, and they all head to their beds for the night.
AN: Yeah, so Bloom's cover hasn't been blown yet all. Wormtail might've heard everything, but he can't really go around the Wizarding World shouting that she's from another universe - he's supposed to be dead after all. Year four coming soon, promise!
