Neurasthenia

Prologue

____________________

Year: September 1st, 1977
Current Location: Hogwarts, Great Hall

Quiet was not the word to describe Hogwarts' feasts. Definitely not when Gryffindor existed as one of the four houses. The boisterous atmosphere emanates from the Gryffindor table. The whispers of quiet but rapid discussions and debates from the Ravenclaw table. The warmth and homely aura of the Hufflepuff table. And last but not least, the elan of a medley of silent nods, head tilts, and raised eyebrows from the Slytherin table.

Is a pretty normal evening I would say. Until a bright light flashed and a stack of books with a glass ball on a stand appeared in the middle of the great hall with a thud, along with a mysterious note which landed on the headmaster's desk.

Dear Hogwarts students and ex-students.

I'm sure you're all confused about what happened and why people who no longer go to Hogwarts were in the Great Hall. Well, the reason behind this is the future needs reshaping. I know you probably think that this is a joke but it isn't. Magic won't be able to be used in the hall until all the movies are watched

There will be a few more people joining you from the past, though some older people in the hall would be able to recognize them.

I hope this message finds you well

Hecate

Silence. That's all they can react to. No one knows how to react after hearing the headmaster read the letter. An outburst occurred, some laughed it off thinking it was some kind of a prank, some shouted demanding an explanation, and some shook their heads not believing what the letter said. Everyone was speechless about what they just heard 'How can that be possible?' many thought.

The hall started being in a frenzy, nobody knew what to do especially when they tried to use magic and it didn't work.

"Silence!" Dumbledore shouted. As the students started to calm down, the doors of the great hall opened revealing the families of the students. The Potter, The Blacks, The Lestranges, The Weasleys, The Tonks, The Ministry of Magic - Amelia Bones, and Alastor Moody.

Not long after the family arrived a bright light shone and several people were standing there with a note similar to theirs in one of their hands, the people that appeared looked up and Dumbledore looked like he had seen a ghost yet he couldn't say anything, it was like something was physically stopping him from saying something.

The Black brothers, The Lestrange brothers, and Lucius were surprised and creeped out by the younger versions of their father but were wondering who was the extra person with them.

"Oh great! A family reunion" murmured Sirius sarcastically, although his mother Walburga Black heard him quite well and rolled her eyes at her "son's" words.

"What is the meaning of this James? Dumbledore?" asked Euphemia Potter to her son who shrugs in confusion before turning to the Headmaster.

"We received a letter saying that you needed us here immediately," said Amelia while showing the letter to the headmaster

Dumbledore looked at them trying to ignore the people from the past as much as he could. He knew exactly who they were specifically the person with a powerful aura surrounding him.

Tom Marvolo Riddle.

"Yes, that's right. While welcoming the students; I received a letter saying that it's from the future and that they want us to watch it." Dumbledore said

"Well let's watch it, shall we? Dumbledore asked the people in the great hall who nodded. The tables are turned into couches with several pillows and blankets the second they get up. The Blacks and Lestranges sat near Regulus and his friends while The Potter, Weasleys, and Tonks sat near the Gryffindors.

The obvious leader of the group that appeared walked towards the Slytherin side and sat down with his group. All of them settled down on the couches, not looking or caring for anyone else in the room.

After everyone else settled in,  A screen flashed and words appeared.
