Chapter 2-The man out of time
'Rise and shine' were the two words that were swirling in my head, those were the first words that 'creeper' said to me, I didn't know his real name but I called him creeper cause he gave me creeps.
It was a rather silly innuendo on the man's inhuman qualities, but I worked for the guy now, no idea what I did for him but yeah I worked for him, for one second I thought whether the creeper or his employer will pay me, but I thought living after getting poisoned was a great reward,
It dawned on me that I was really cold, I finally opened my eyes fighting my sub conscious thoughts about how it was a bad choice waking up,
I was lying in cold dirt surrounded by trees, I groaned seeing the full moon, there was no doubt I was laying in the forbidden forest, I got up horrified at the fact that I was bare naked, the cold chill in the atmosphere was having disastrous effect on my body,
"Expecto patronum" I heard someone scream, the voice sounded suspiciously like a specky git I knew, if that was true I was royally fucked,
And sure as hell when I turned towards the voice I could see Harry casting his stag while Hermione shielded her eyes from the light, they were both so little, and with a pang I remembered I was lying on the hospital bed uselessly,
At first I wondered about all great things I could do with my knowledge of the 'past', but that's when it hit me like a troll's club over my head, I was in the past that means everything that happened, has already happened.
I was always supposed to be poisoned and I was always going to accept the creeper's job, there really wasn't much point in changing the past. All I could do was wait and watch myself die in my sixth year,
So without dwelling too much on what Harry was doing I started walkin trying to find my way back to Hogsmeade village,
Now was my chance at life again I had a three year head start, an interesting thought struck me as I made my way through the eerie woods, I will be older than both Harry and Hermione when I meet them again, well that would be an interesting scene to be a witness of,
The shrieking shack still seemed awfully far, I didn't have a wand to apparate 'hell if I even had a wand I don't think people would take kindly to a naked guy appearing in the middle of a street',
Maybe I could live at hogs head, I bent down and rubbed some dirt on my hair because, let's be honest I looked like bill in a shaggy wig,
Soon I was at the street in front of Hogshead inn, I laid down and pretended to be unconscious, I almost smiled as I felt someone shaking me,
"Get up, get off the street you drunk eedjit" I heard the man say but I didn't make a move, he picked me up by his shoulder half dragging me inside the pub,
Laying on the bed I pretended to have just woken up,
"Um- where am I" I groaned, well playing the memory loss card was the best plan I thought,
"You are in my pub boy and I would really like to know what you were doing in my street naked" The old man said his piercing blue eyes boring into me, there was something familiar about the man,
"Have we met before" I asked
"Yeah,yeah I know the routine 'you look just like him'" the old man said in a weird high pitched imitation, "Never was good enough as him was I"
"Excuse me but who are you talking about" I asked him genuinely confused,
"Oh don't you know boy Albus of course, never was good enough as my high and mighty big brother" The old man grumbled,
I was shocked speechless that the brother of the greatest wizard was running a local pub, maybe fate was showing me my future in a cruel twist of irony, I decided to play dumb and use my memory loss card to its full advantage,
"Um-sorry I really don't know anything, I can't remember other than the fact I can do magic" I said,
"Oh my boy, it is refreshing to meet someone who isn't familiar with my brother, I'm Aberforth Dumbledore" the old man said, "why don't you take a shower and we will talk some more"
I nodded giving aberforth a smile, he was really a kind man like his brother, but Abe lacked the cunningness that his brother had,
I finished up showering, wearing the plain white v neck shirt and black pants, I didn't know where the man got these clothes from but they looked fresh,
Abe was just cleaning the bar it had a real grim atmosphere, Abe looked like he didn't even care for the bar,
I sat down at the table in the far corner and Abe returned with a steaming plate of scrambled eggs and bread with what looked like goat cheese on side,
"Thank you very much, mister" I said politely,
"Oh forget the mister crap boy, call me Ab" Aberforth said waving his hand.
I ate my share in silent when I was finished Ab asked me if I had any plans on what to do, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do I needed money at least for a new wand,
"I have no idea" I said shaking my head,
"Tell you what kid, why don't you work for me, I'll give you ten galleons and five Knuts a week" Ab said
Well things were looking up "if you want help, I can certainly do that" I said,
"Okay boy, but what should I call you" Ab asked,
"I don't know call me Bob" I said cringing at my made up name, Bob made me look like some weird guy whom you work with,
Ab laughed "Okay Bob, why don't you help me clean up a bit" Ab said,
I spent the whole day cleaning and talking with Ab about Dumbldore and his family, I really related to the guy always in the shadow of his brother, always deemed too dim or mediocre at magic, it was like looking at a mirror, the guy even had blue eyes for Merlin's sake.
And that was a start of a great friendship that got me through the whole first year in the past, I helped him change the look of the pub, when the tri-wizard tournament rolled around, I was fully able to feed myself and buy some new clothes and a wand,
Ollivander seemed unconvinced of my cock and bull story of how I lost my memories by getting hit by a troll club on my head,
It was like routine when my wand chose me emitting the red sparkles from the end, 15 inches Apple wood, Unicorn hair core and rigid flexibility, it was like my wand knew I came back, apple wood was rare wand but it chose me for my high aims as Ollivander said, I had joked at that time how I couldn't even remember my aim to the unamused Wandmaker,
When You-kno—hell when Voldie finally returned at the end of the tournament, I decided it was time for me to get off my arse and do something, and then there was the problem that my past self was starting to look a lot like me, it was bound to happen, so I decided to take Aberforth's leave the old man looked sad because of my decision but I promised him to visit as often as I could, but there was one thing i had to do before i could really run off on my own,
And that was how I found myself with large books that i never would have thought of reading courtesy of Ab Dumbledore and mandrake's leaf stolen from Hogwarts greenhouses, sitting naked in my room in the Hogshead inn, I had told Ab not to disturb me while I began the excruciating process of becoming a duel animagus, illegally"
It was hard really, till the time I mastered the art of becoming an Animagus it was already two months after the school started,
I charmed my hair brown and apparated to the leaky cauldron, illegally, I couldn't live in the wizarding world anymore looking like Ron weasley, so I got out in the only place I could be totally invisible, Muggle London.
It was nothing but a start of a great new adventure.
