A Leap From The Past

SIRIUS POV

"Congratulations Minnie!! "I screamed and went to high five her except as usual she declined my high five and stared at me in shock

"Professor are you alright? "lily asked her

"How... When?? "

"Minnie we need your help, we accidentally traveled through time by a time turner which James just broke a minute ago and we don't know how to go back so we came here. We need to go back. And by the way, can you tell us what year is it? And secondly where's Dumbledore? And is it the summer holidays because the castle is quite empty but we still saw few students outside with hagrid " I blurted out in one breath

"Uhhh....... Mister black it's 31 August 2019.."

"2019?!!!" All of us shouted

"We traveled 44 years in future?!!!!! " lily shouted at last

" If you are done, please explain then how did you get a time turner? "

"Professor, James, and Sirius stole it from your office at our time," she said while folding her arms

"So that's why I wasn't able to find it that day "

" I helped too " Remus added

"No professor,  I just forced him, " I said

" Well, a broken time turner cannot be fixed and I don't even have extra time turners so until I get one you will continue your studies here "

I and prongs groaned when she said that

" And it's a lot safer to change your disguise," she said and flicked her wand and our appearance changed
James had red hair which wasn't messy like before but he had blue eyes and was fairer than before, in short, he was looking like a Weasley. Remus had black hair and blue eyes, his scars were fainter but his face was mostly the same. Lily had long straight brown hair and green eyes like before but she also had freckles and she wasn't even recognizable to us. Well according to prongs  I still had my beautiful hair just my face was different. I had green eyes and my face wasn't as beautiful as before. That's it.

" So you people are from drumstrang Sirius and Lily are siblings and you will go under Caleb and Cassandra Styles who are half-bloods whereas James and Remus are twins who will go under Liam and Chris Brown who too are half-bloods. The four of you are going to start their fifth year at Hogwarts from tomorrow and too are in gryffindor house. Your books'  uniforms and extra clothes will be present in your dormitories and the password for the common room is periwinkle. "

" OK thanks, Minnie, "I said while grinning

" Professor where is professor Dumbledore? " Remus asked

" He retired," she said with a straight face.

And taking it as our queue we ran out of the office. But before going to the Gryffindor tower, we decided to have some lunch in the kitchen. We were roaming in the corridors when someone stopped us.

"Who are you? " It was a female's voice

I turned around and saw a woman walking towards us. She looked like around her fifties, she was thin and had blonde hairs tied up in a loose plait with sky blue eyes and was wearing a black formal jacket with blue top and flared black jeans. And she looked a lot familiar

" We're transfer students from drumstrang. " I said

" And where are you going? " she asked sternly

" Headmistress said we are Gryffindor house so we were going to the Gryffindor tower, " lily said hesitantly

" Do you know where it is? "

"Uhh... "

"Well, I could show you the Gryffindor tower "

I was about to say that we already know the way but before I could open my mouth, lily answered

" Thank you, ma'am "

" Follow me then "

We followed her even though we knew the way

" What are your names? "
"I'm Caleb Styles and that's my sister Cassandra and these two are twins and our friends Liam and Chris Brown. "

"  Nice to meet all the four of you. I'm Vanessa Hodge, the head of Gryffindor house and the deputy headmistress of Hogwarts. "

We just stared at her. She was Vanessa?! The Vanessa we knew in our time was a cute little girl with blonde pigtails who used to talk non stop. She was her?? I met James's eye and he mouthed no way.

" And here we are, " Vanessa said while bringing me back to reality from my thoughts.

" You know the password? "

" Yes, v... Mam. Periwinkle " lily said and we went inside. After the door closed I said

" She's Vanessa? "

"She looks so different," James said
" I know right ."

" She's an adult now guys," Remus said

" I'm going to rest. This time travel has made me exhausted. " lily said and went to the girls' dormitories and suddenly we heard a noise from above and Lily groaned

James started to run towards the girls' dormitory when suddenly the stairs became flat and he fell on his face
" Bloody hell prongs are you alright?! " I almost screamed

Suddenly someone opened one of the doors from the boys' dormitories

" Lily are you fine? "Remus asked her

" Yes, I am. Sorry.  I'm coming down. "

I helped James get up. Fortunately, he just had a bruise on his nose and I waved my wand and healed it.

" Thanks, pads "

"Welcome prongs "

Lily came down with two other girls and two more boys came from the boys' dormitories

" Who are you guys? " I asked them

" Transfer students from beauxbaton "one of the brown-haired girl replied

" And you guys? " asked a boy with blonde hair

"Transfer students from drumstrang "
