The Hogwarts corridors, one of Harry Potter's favorite places because they went on forever. He loved just wondering about after hours and thinking about everything he wished he could change, which was a lot. For example, he wished he had listened to Hermione and didn't go to the Department of Mysteries that night. He wished he could've saved Sirius or Cedric, it was after all his fault they died in the first place. He wished he could go back in time and stop his childish quarrel with Malfoy. If he had just shaken his hand in first year. It's not like they had to be friends or anything, but being acquaintances was far better than being enemies over something so petty.

As he continued to walk about the castle, he turned a corner and something caught his eye. He noticed a tiny light coming from one of the dark corners. Harry wondered what could be producing the light and how it even got there. So Harry, being the curious Gryffindor he is, decided to investigate it. As he slowly approached the light, it started to get slightly brighter than before. When Harry got close enough to see the object, he feels like he's seen it before. Then it hit him. It looked almost identical to the time turner Hermione had in third year. Harry picked it up and started to examine it, wondering who could've dropped it here, but just as he starts inspecting the time turner's light, it starts to shine even brighter than previously.

The light was beginning to become blinding and it made Harry drop it to the floor. When the necklace hit the floor it opened up revealing dark gray smoke. It started making noise and speaking things that were oddly familiar to the Gryffindor. "I can help you there," he hears a young Draco Malfoy say. The gray smoke starts to form the scene in front of Harry and soon he could see first year Draco holding his hand out for him to shake. The smoke then changed scenes and showed the sorting hat on Harry. "You could be great you know. It's all here in your head. And Slytherin will help you on the way to greatness, there's no doubt about that. Better be SLYTHERIN!" the sorting hat shouted. Harry was in shock, thinking this was all a dream.

Suddenly the smoke turned to normal and the light was becoming so bright, Harry getting engulfed by it. Harry couldn't see anything but yellow brightness and felt like he was in the sun. Abruptly the light went out and nothing was in the corridor, not even Harry. Instead, Harry opened his eyes revealing a place he knew all too well. The place he spent 11 years of his life in. The cupboard under the stairs.
