Athena wakes up in a bed in the hospital wing. It's still night.
Hermione: Athena?
Athena: I saw my dad or mum.
Everyone sent pity looks to Athena who just ignored them.
Hermione: What?
Athena: One of them sent the Dementors away. I saw them across the lake.
Hermione: Listen, Athena, they've captured Sirius. Any minute the Dementors are going to perform the Kiss.
Athena: [scrambling out of bed] You mean they're going to kill him?
Hermione: No, it's worse, much worse. They're going to suck out his soul.
Remus moved closer to Sirius, Orion, regulus and the Potters paled.
Dumbledore enters.
Hermione: Headmaster, you've got to stop them! They've got the wrong man!
Athena: It's true, sir, Sirius is innocent.
Ron: [in bed with his leg still broken] It's Scabbers who did it.
Dumbledore: Scabbers?
Ron: He's my rat, sir. He's not really a rat. Well, he was a rat. He was my brother Percy's rat, but then they gave him an owl and--
"It's not the time for your life story Ron" chuckled Ginny.
Hermione: Point is we know the truth. Please believe us.
Dumbledore: I do, Miss Granger, but I'm sorry to say the word of three thirteen-year-old wizards will convince few others. [walks up to Ron's bed] A child's voice, however honest and true, is meaningless to those who have forgotten how to listen. [As Dumbledore speaks he absentmindedly taps Ron's broken leg, causing Ron to yelp in pain. The Clock Tower starts chiming, and Dumbledore moves back towards the entrance.] Mysterious thing, time. Powerful. And when meddled with, dangerous. Sirius Black is in the topmost cell of the Dark Tower. You know the law, 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. [steps into the doorway but then turns back for one last comment] Oh, by the way: When in doubt, I found retracing my steps to be a wise place to begin. Good luck. [leaves]
Ron: What the bloody hell was that all about?
Hermione: Sorry, Ron, but seeing as you can't walk.
Hermione puts a necklace around hers and Athena's necks. On the end of it is an hourglass. Athena reaches up to examine it, but Hermione swats her hand away. She spins the hourglass three times. A ticking sound begins, and everything around Athena and Hermione rushes backwards. It stops with them standing in a deserted hospital wing during the daytime.
Everyone laughed when Hermione smacked Athena's hand. The Ravenclaws, Lily, Remus and Regulus all look wide eyed at the time turner, finally understanding how Hermione would randomly turn up.
Athena: What the fuck just happened? Where's Ron?
Hermione: [looks at a clock] 7:30. [turns to Athena] Where were we at 7:30?
Athena: I don't know, going to Hagrid's?
Hermione: Come on, and we can't be seen!
Hermione takes off running and Athena follows.
Athena: Hermione!
They go down the Clock Tower and across the courtyard to the Covered Bridge.
Athena: Hermione! Hermione, wait!
Athena and Hermione reach the end of the Covered Bridge.
Athena: Hermione, will you please tell me what it is we're doing! [The scene from before is playing out.]
Earlier Draco: Ah, come to see the show?
Earlier Hermione: You! You foul, loathsome, evil little cockroach!
Athena: That's us.
Earlier Neville: Hermione, no! He's not worth it.
Athena: Holy shit! There's no way....
"You travelled back in time!" Asked an enthusiastic Hufflepuff.
Hermione pushes her out of sight. She holds up the hourglass.
Hermione: This is a Time Turner, Athena. McGonagall gave it to me first term. This is how I've been getting to my lessons all year.
Everyone turns and looks at McGonagall who looks gobsmacked.
Athena: You mean we've gone back in time? I knew it, I knew you were up to something!
Hermione: Yes. [puts the Time Turner away] Dumbledore obviously wanted us to return to this moment. [looks out at the scene] Clearly something happened he wants us to change.
The earlier Hermione punches Draco.
Everyone cheers.
Athena: That punch was amazing.
Hermione: Thanks.
Crabbe: Let's go! Quick!
Hermione: Malfoy's coming.
She and Athena jump onto the ground beside the bridge before they can be seen by Draco and his friends.
Draco: [as he and his friends run to the bridge] Not a word to anyone. Understood? I'm gonna get that jumped-up Mudblood! Mark my words!
Narcissa smacked Draco and Lucius.
Earlier Hermione: That felt good.
Earlier Ron: Not good. Brilliant.
Earlier Athena: That was fucking awesome girl
Earlier Neville: That was so badass
Earlier Athena: Come on, we should be at Hagrid's.
The quartet heads down the hill. Following at a distance, the time-traveling Athena and Hermione reach the edge of the hill.
