Sarafina Weasley: Book 3

Time Turner

Sarafina's POV

I got up a few minutes ago was sitting in between Ron and Hermione's beds waiting for someone else to wake. When I heard the minister and Snape talking outside the door. "We shall see Snape, the has undoubtedly been foolish" Fudge states as they talk about Harry. I turn to see Harry is awake listening to the conversation and he was looking at Hermione. I turn to see she was also awake listening looking petrified.

"What amazes me is the behaviour of the dementors" Fudge states. "You have no idea of why they retreated?" he asks Snape.

"None minster, when I arrived they were returning to they posts" Snape replies.

"Extraordinary and you say Black, Harry and the girl" Fudge trails off. I growl how dear he not even know my last name. When my father works at the ministry.

"All unconscious I bounded Black and conjured stretchers for the children. Then brought them all back to school" Snape explains. I growled again how dear he bound my friend like a common criminal when he is innocent. I was brought back to the present when Madame Pomfrey appeared to see the three of us awake.

"Ah you're both awake" she states placing chocolate on Harry's table.

"How's Ron?" the three of us ask her as Hermione and Harry sit up. I stand up beside Hermione ignoring my scratches.

"He'll live, but you two are staying here until... Potter what are you doing?" she asks. Harry had gotten up and put his glasses back on. I knew what he wanted to do and I wanted to do the same thine. So I walked over to him.

"We need to see the headmaster" I tell her.

"Potter, Weasley it's alright they have Black" she tries to reassure us. "He's locked up and the dementors will perform the kiss soon" she explains.

"What?!" we yell at her. I went into shock just standing there rooted to the spot breathing quickly. Sirius can't die he's like an uncle to me I think as a few tears leaves my eyes. Hermione hugs me as Harry talks to the minister. Who had just entered the room along with Snape.

"You've got the wrong man!" Harry yells.

"He's right minister, we saw him too" Hermione states.

"It was that rat, my brother's rat sir he is an animagus. By the name Peter Pettigrew" I say finally returning to the present.

"See sir, confunded all three of them" Snape states.

"We're not confunded!" Harry and I yell.

"Minister, professor I insist you leave. They are my patients and don't need anymore distress" Madame Pomfrey states.

"We aren't distressed" I tell her.

"We are trying to tell them want happened" Harry begins and Pomfrey stuff some chocolate into his mouth.

"If you try that with I'll hex you, where's my wand?" I demand looking for it. But I couldn't find it anywhere. Then Dumbledore entered the room and I sighed in relief knowing he'd believe us. He asked to speak to Harry, Hermione and I alone. So the minister and Snape left the room while Pomfrey went to her office grumbling in anger.

While Harry and Hermione tried to explain I became hungry. So I got some chocolate to ate. "What we need is more time" Dumbledore muses. I got excited and so did Hermione. "You know the laws Miss Granger, Miss Weasley you must not be seen. If all goes well more then one innocent life maybe spared tonight. Three turns ought to do the trick" he tells us.

He wished us good luck after saying he was locking us in and to be back before the last chime. I dragged Harry to Hermione and she wrapped the chain of her necklace around all three of us. She turned the hourglass back three times and we went back in time three hours. Hermione and I dragged Harry into a closet.

While she explained want was happening quietly I kept watch. Once the ghost was clear I told Hermione and we left the closet. We then snuck out of the castle and ran into the forest. Sticking to the edge of the forest approaching Hagrid's hut. Once there we waited for the Minister to arrive with Dumbledore and executioner.

They appeared and Hermione throw a rock through the window breaking a vase. "Let  the chaser show you how's it's done Hermione" I state picking up another rock. I chucked it at the back of Harry's head.

"That hurt Sarafina" Harry pouted as the back door to the hut opened. I apologized as we went behind the trees. Then I heard something in the trees.

"Guys I hear something I'll be back" I tell them and leave before Hermione can protest. You won't believe who I found, it was Dotty. the hippogriff I met in my first Care of Magical Creatures class. I bowed to her as we made eye contact and didn't blink. She bowed back and I approached her carefully.

"I'm gonna need your help, can you do that for me girl?" I ask. She nods her head and I see Harry leading Buckbeak towards the whopping willow with Hermione. "Come on girl let's go see Buckbeak" I tell her smiling. Se followed me and I left her by Buckbeak when we reached the others. "So now we wait?" I ask and Hermione nods her head.

Soon everyone came out and Lupin transformed into a werewolf. We run towards the lake and Hermione howled. "What are you doing?" Harry asks her.

"Saving our lives" I tell him and howl with Hermione.

"Now he's heading this way" Harry states.

"Yeah didn't think about that, run" Hermione states and we all run. In the end Buckbeak and Dotty saved us from the werewolf. Then the air became cold and we looked to the skies seeing Dementors heading towards the lake.

We run to it to see we were opposite to where our past shelves are. Harry then run out of the bushes and wand drawn. "Expecto Patronum!" he shouted and a stag run the dementors down scaring them away.

"I'm proud of you Harry and Lupin will be to" I tell him. Harry smiled and it was soon time for us to collect Padfoot from the tower. We got there and Sirius approached the window looking at us in shock. I was riding Dotty while the other two were on Buckbeak. "Stand back" I tell him as Hermione drew her wand wand. He does so and Hermione points her band at the lock saying 'Bombarda'.

It destroyed the lock and I held an arm out to Sirius which he took jumping on behind me. Harry and I told to the hippogriffs to go up to the tower. Once there I told Dotty to return to Hagrid and she left. "Take care Padfoot and just for the record, you're the best dog I ever had" I state smiling.

"Thanks you're an amazing girl Sarafina" he says giving me a hug. Before hopping onto Buckbeak grabbing hold of the rope. "You and Hermione really are the brightest witches of your age" he tells us smiling. "Harry you truly are your father's son" he tells Harry smiling. "We'll see each other again" he promises us before leaving in Buckbeak.

The three of us then ran back to the hospital wing as Dumbledore was about to lock the door. We stopped him told him we'd done it and he let us in locking the door behind us. Hermione and I sat on her bed eating chocolate as harry sat on his. Madame Pomfrey came back and started to treat our wounds until we heard Snape's roar of fury.
