Chapter no.2:

The Reunion:

Harry's perspective:

Harry's uncle left him with his trunk at the King cross. He started walking towards the platform 9, this time familiar with everything.He saw the Weasleys standing near the barrier.

If he wanted to know whether Ron and Ginny had come back too, then it was his chance. He just walked past them and ran straight into the barrier. If they had noticed, they would absolutely understand that he was from the future too. He stood their for a while but no one of them came. So he decided to find a compartment. He was trying to load his trunk on the train when one of the Weasley twins came.

"Want a hand?" George asked.

"Yes, please," Harry panted.

"Oy, Fred! C'mere and help!"

With the twins' help, Harry's trunk was at last tucked away in a corner

of the compartment.

"Thanks," said Harry, pushing his hair out of his eyes.

"What's that?" said one of the twins suddenly, pointing at Harry's

lightning scar.

"Blimey," said the other twin. "Are you?"

"He is," said the first twin. "Aren't you?" he added to Harry.

"What?" said Harry.

"Harry Potter, "chorused the twins.

"Oh, him," said Harry. "I mean, yes, I am."

The two boys gawked at him.Then, to

his relief, a voice came floating in through the train's open door.

"Fred? George? Are you there?"

"Coming, Mom."

He saw Mrs. Weasely hugging the twins. The twins were telling them about something, probably about Harry Potter. Ginny ran and Mrs. Weasely shrieked behind her. In no time, Ginny was at the Compartement door.

"Harry," she said, tears in her eyes.

"Ginny, you.. you..came back too." he said.

"Yeah... Ron too and we think Hermoine too.

I thought I lost you. I thought I will never see you again." she closed the compartement door and hugged him.

"Ginny" Ron called, he opened the compartment door, " Ginny what are you doing here? Mum's calling for you." he noticed Harry standing, "what... Harry you... Harry." he looked surprised.

" Yes Ron," he said.

The train started moving.

"I have to go." Ginny left.

Ron stood thier surprised. " We thought that only us, me and Ginny came back in time."

"I stayed in shock after finding that we came back, and even told mum about that. Mum told me that I was sick and sent me to my room. Fred and George made lots of fun about me. Then Ginny came to my room and told me that something like that had happened with her too.We tried to figure out but couldn't."

Ginny was so tensed these days, she even stopped speaking," he told him, " remember the voice that came in that cave. It looks like Something truly bad happened "

They sat their in scilence, thinking about what might have happened to cause such a change in time.

The compartement door slid open.

"Have you seen a toad around here, a boy named, Neville lost one." Hermoine said standing at the door.

"Blimey, a toad , I hate Toads. They are really scary, aren't they?" Ron said pretending to be serious.

"Wait , What?" she said astonished.

"Will you tell me your name please?" she asked, pretending to stay normal.

"Ronald, Ron Weasley. Your future..." he stopped talking.

" You idiot." she said laughing.

Ron stood up.

"Oh wait, do you have a pet?" she asked.

"Yes... ohhh..." Harry said suddenly understanding. Scabbers Ron's rat was not only a pet, but a traitor.

"No, I left him with Ginny. She would take care of it." Ron told them.

"Good riddance." Harry said.

"You sure, he will stay there. I mean if he runs away." Hermoine said.

"No, she will take care of him." Ron said.

" So do you know what might have happened?" Ron asked.

"No idea, " Hermione replied, "couldn't find out, i had less access to the magical world these days."

"The cave it was magical, strong dark magic. I'd say it was the most strongest." Harry told them, " things have changed."

"What kind of things?" Ron asked.

"There's a girl, Lily. She was never here at Hogwarts before," Harry told them, "and I have started dreaming about Voldemort again."

"Strange." Hermoine said, lost in thoughts.

"Should we tell Dumbledore?" Ron asked.

"No, Ron we can't. It's too dangerous." Hermoine said.

"But it was the voice which said that time awaits to be changed." he said.

"But Ron If we tell anyone else, they might try to intervene in it by themselves. What if everything gets worst instead of getting better."

"Yeah you are right." He said.

"What matters right now is that we find what caused this turn in time. And how can we handle it without causing much damage," Harry said," if we stay careful, we might able to save everyone. Sirius, Fred, Remus everyone." a warmth rising in him.

"And we are more trained than before.

We are Aurors," Ron said, smiling, "we can fix everything."

"Hope everything goes as we think." Hermoine said.

The compartement door slid open and the same red haired girl Harry had met in the zoo, Lily , popped in.

"Can I sit here." she asked. She was holding two large books in her hand.

"Ohh... Hi." she said when she noticed him.

"Yes why not." Hermoine said.

"Thanks. I cannot sit in that stupid compartment with those girls. Talking like they have met each other after a decade." she said. She sat down on the seat opposite to Harry.

"Sorry about that day. I had to go. My father is just so orthrodox. Never allowed me to go out." she said to Harry.

"Oh, No worries." Harry said.

Lily had now opened one of those large books and was now completely hidden behind it.

"Which book are you reading?" Hermoine asked.

"It's a book about history of Wizarding world," she replied "you interested?"

"Yeah, I like reading." Hermoine told her.

"She doesn't only like reading, she loves it or I'd say addicted to it." Ron said.

"Looks like I have finally got a partner." She said.

Hermoine blushed.

"Ohhh," she murmured,

"I really forgot to ask your names," she said, " I am such an Idiot."

Hermoine laughed. "You don't even know him." she gestured towards Harry.

"No I met him before but he was about to tell his name when I left."

"Harry," he introduced himself," Harry Potter."

"Ohhh... Harry Potter... that Harry Potter in History Books who defeated Voldemort." she asked, looking bewildered.

"Yeah." Harry said smiling.

" Thats why there were Students shrieking "Harry Potter is on the train"

and I didn't get it." she said, "what's yours?" she asked the other two.

"Hermoine Granger." Hermoine told her .

"Ronald Weasley, everyone calls me Ron." He said.

"Weasely, Fred and George's Brother."

she asked.

"Yeah." he replied.

Harry was releived that she didn't talk about him much.

"I am a great fan of those two. The way they live thier life. They are really LIVING thier life. There pranks and everything." she said, "I wanted to ask them if they could pull a prank on that stupid Lestrange."

"Blimey!!! you like those two." Ron looked surprised. Harry was surprised too but didn't show it.

"What did you say? the name ? The one you wanted to pull a prank on?"

Hermoine said, shocked.

"Ummm... Lestrange. His name's Zean Lestrange. Such a jerk he is." Lily said, disgustingly.

"Zean Lestrange. Never heard of him." Harry said. A horrid feeling rising in his heart.Hermoine and Ron looked shocked too. Of course , there was no other Lestrange in past except Bellatrix, Rodolphus and Rabastan.

"He is the son of Rabastan Lestrange.

I don't know much about him. His mother's dead. And father is in prison. He stays with the Malfoys." she told them, she looked out of the window and then to her watch "I think we are about to arrive. Let's change." she added.

Malfoy and his friends came when Lily and Hermoine had gone to change.

""Is it true?" he said. "They're saying all down the train that Harry Potter's in this compartment. So it's you, is it?"

"Yes," said Harry.

"Oh, this is Crabbe and this is Goyle," said Malfoy. "And my name's Malfoy, Draco Malfoy."

Ron gave a slight cough, which might have been hiding a snigget. Draco

Malfoy looked at him.

"Think my name's funny, do you? No need to ask who you are. My father

told me all the Weasleys have red hair, freckles, and more children than

they can afford."

"That means I am a Weasely too."

Lily said from behind him, Malfoy turned quickly," I have red hair, a bit freckles," she said twirling her long hair ," and I think I would have been proud to be one. At least they donnot bully people as you guys do."

"And who are you to talk to me like that?" Malfoy asked.

"Who I am? Who are you, Draco Malfoy. A mommy's boy?" she said, "I ask who are you to talk to me like that?"

"I am Malfoy, the heir to one of the most powerful pureblood family." he said arrogantly.

"If family names matter that much, then I'd say I am the heir to that family whom even The Malfoys are afraid of."

"And may I ask which one." he asked angrily.

"I don't think you are important enough to be told." she said, " besides i think family names become important and superior only by thier members. And i don't think mine or your family are worth enough to be called superior."

"Disgusting." he said, " Let's go." he said and left.

"Lily what is your family name?" Ron Asked after they had seated.

"Everligh. Its not a British Wizarding Family, originally from America but I live here." she said.

"Blimey," Ron said surprised.

"Ok Ron I don't want to talk much about it . And you three... " she said "not to tell anyone about my family."

"Why?" Harry asked

"Its just .. she hesitated I don't want people to know about my family. Teachers are prohibited to call me with my family name. And you three are too. Its Lily James... Ok."

"Ok... but why?" Harry asked again.

"Because half my family was killed by Voldemort because our family never coordinated with him. And my Father don't wants me to be the target too. My mother was killed particularly by him. I don't want to talk about it any more."

They covered the remaining journey in scilence and thinking about what was coming next. But he hoped for the best.
