Recap:
Remus woke with a start, sunlight pouring through his window.

Shit!

A 'new' day had started. A new day of daisy chains, a new day of pictures, and a new day to die! Again!

He slams his pillow onto his face and screams.

Below him, the Marauderers plus Y/N and Eliza look up.

"Wha' the fuck?" Eliza asks.

"Don't. even. know," Y/N looks back to the fire.

The door slams open and Remus stomps down. He passes the sofa and heads out of the Common Room. Everyone shoots up and follows him.

He comes to a stop outside of Professor Dumbledore's office.

"Ahh, Mr Lupin. What may I do for you on this fine day?" Professor Dumbledore's voice sounds from behind the group.

*Dumbledore's office*

"What's happening to me?" Remus asks. "It- It feels like I'm living in a loop. Everyday. The same stuff. Wake up, everyone's at Hogsmead, these lot are the only ones in the common room, the girls go to the lake, we go, we start making daisy chains, the Hogsmead visitors come back, we go to dinner and then I get shot! What's happening to me?!"

Behind him, the girls start whispering. They were leant against the wall at the back of the office.

"Nah! They shut that shit down! Remember?"

"Yes, but is is a possibility! Somehow, he could've gotten a bit of that potion!"

"The Minister said they got rid of it all!"

"I'm only saying-"

"And I'm sayin', no! It ain't physically possible!"

"No! I believe, the Minister kept some and Lupin found it! One secret to immor-"

"The Minister kept what? I found what?" Lupin spun round. The girls stood, rooted to the spot. Everyone turns to them.

"Well now ya gotta tell 'im! And he ain't gonna believe you! And I ain't tellin' 'im!" Eliza pushes Y/N forward.

"Well... You remember Operation Immortal Rose? Right... Professor?" Y/N steps forward.

"Indeed I do, Miss L/N," Professor Dumbledore leans forward slightly.

"Well..." she takes a deep breath. "My father was killed working this experiment, and my mother was not fit to continue it, and I was fifteen, so they saw me fit to carry on where my father failed! I created the idea that you could live forever without the help of The Book of Abraham the Mage; or the Codex (Disclaimer: not mine, read The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel); to create the Elixer of Life. I simply created a potion where one could live forever. However, when the drinker gets murdered, their 'Death Day' starts again. They must set out to stop the murder. I give you, Operation Immortal Rose."

"Yes, but- ohhhh... oh dear... oh dear indeed..." the old man laid his head in his hands.

"What's oh dear?" worry clouded Remus' face.

"Mr Lupin, when you were first sent to take your Wolfsband Potion at the Ministry, you may have accidentally taken the Operation Immortal Rose elixer. But how would he get that? The operation was shut down months before he needed the potion!"

"That's the tricky bit... I believe that Fudge may have kept some-"

"For himself..." Professor Dumbledore finished. "Miss L/N, please show Mr Lupin to your old office in the Ministry."

"Of course Professor..."
