"Harry? Y/N?" I heard Hermione's voice. My eyes flickered open and I found myself in Madam Pomfrey's chamber. I groaned and sat up on the bed.
"You both are good to go but Mr. Weasley should stay for a day." Madam Pomfrey said and went off.
"I saw my dad." Harry spoke up.
"What?" Hermione asked.
"He sent the dementors away." He said. "I saw him across the lake."
"Listen Harry, they've captured Sirius. Any minute the dementors are going to perform the Kiss."
"You mean they're gonna kill him?" I asked as she turned to me.
"No. It's worse. Much worse. They're going to suck out his soul." Hermione explained and Dumbledore walked in. "Headmaster, you've got to stop them. They've got the wrong man."
"It's true. Sirius is innocent." Harry said.
"It's Scabbers who did it." Ron said as all our attention was turned to him.
"Scabbers?" Dumbledore asked, perplexed.
"He's my rat, sir. He's not really a rat. He was a rat. He was my brother Percy's rat.But then they gave him an owl..." Ron trailed off.
"The point is, we know the truth." Hermione said.
"Please believe us." I pleaded.
"I do, Miss Knight. But the word of three 13-year-old wizards will convince few others. A child's voice, however honest and true... is meaningless to those who have forgotten how to listen. Mysterious thing, time. Powerful... and when meddled with, dangerous. Sirius Black is in the topmost cell of the Dark Tower." Dumbledore then looked at Hermione. "You know the laws, Miss Granger. You must not be seen. And you would do well, I feel, to return before this last chime. If not, the consequences are too ghastly to discuss. If you succeed tonight... more than one innocent life may be spared. Three turns should do it, I think. Oh, and by the way. When in doubt, I find retracing my steps to be a wise place to begin. Good luck."
"What the bloody hell was that all about?" Ron asked after he left.
"Sorry, Ron, but seeing as you can't walk..."
Hermione grabbed me and Harry then we stood close together. She took out a time turner which was in her chain. I remember McGonagall gifting it to her. She took us under her chain then turned the time turner and changed the time causing everything around us change.
"What just happened? Where's Ron?" Harry asked looking around.
"It's a time turner Harry. We're a few around back in time." I explained.
"7:30. Where were we at 7:30?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know. Going to Hagrid's?" Harry answered not so sure.
"Come on. And we can't be seen." She said then we followed her.
"Hermione! Hermione! Hermione, wait." I went after her.
"Hermione, will you please tell me what it is we're doing?" Harry asked but shit up as he saw our past selves. Hermione was about to punch Draco after i told her to listen to Ron.
"This is not normal." Harry whispered.
"This is a Time-Turner, Harry. McGonagall gave it to me first term. This is how I've been getting to my lessons all year." Hermione replied.
"You mean we've gone back in time?" Harry asked.
"Yes." I replied. "Dumbledore obviously wanted us to return to this moment. Clearly, something happened he wants us to change."
