Time And Again

Chapter 5/? : Uh Oh!

Filch!!! Of all the people she could've encountered ... why did it have to be Filch.

"Ms. Evans, nice to see you here, even when going to the library after hours is NOT permitted. I'm sure you have a nice explanation for this hmm... Ms. Evans?" Filch said in his sadistic tone of voice.

"Well you see Mr. Filch sir, I was just heading for the library to get a book which I need to finish tomorrow's homework, you see, I was busy doing my other homework, I totally forgot about this one." She smiled. 'I can't tell him that I'm off looking for a 'so-called' secret admirer.'

"Nice try. People have been having their 'secret rendezvous' in the library and there was a boy waiting there. I just sent him back to his room."

"Um... Mr. Filch sir, who was the boy?"

"I'm actually quite embarrassed, to tell you the truth, I don't know his name. He must be new to this school." He stuttered. 'Ha ha ha' she thought 'Filch doesn't know anything' she laughed.

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?" he growled.

"Oh Nothing..." She quickly walked away... smiling at the thought that Draco-Harry actually likes him and he's not doing it because he has a grudge against James.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"LILY!" She looked back. After last night, she forgot to pay any attention to what's actually happening in real life. "Yes ... what do you want James?"

"Didn't you get my note yesterday? I told you to meet me by the lake."

"It was from you? I'm sorry ... I thought it was from Sirius, I mean the handwriting and all." She looked a little flushed.

"I ... uh ... asked Sirius to write it for me since you know my writing. You weren't there." He looked angry. Who wouldn't? He got rejected so many times already. She placed her hand on his shoulder. "Listen James ... I said I'd give you a chance and I like your poem but it's true 'Our time is not now'. Soon ..." She quickly moved away when Draco-Harry arrived.

"Hi Potter ... Lily." He grinned. "Sorry if I wasn't in the library last night, Lily, Filch sent me back to my room." Draco-Harry smiled and went in the Great Hall.

"You went looking for him, a Slytherin, instead of me?" Now he's really angry.

She turned away. "You don't understand ... I..." Well they were interrupted by the other members of the Marauders. "Looks like your groupies are here... talk to you later." She ran into the Great Hall with out looking back.

"Is something wrong James?" Remus asked quietly. "I've been rejected once again by Lily." They all comforted him on their way to the Great Hall.

"You really shouldn't take that crap from some Slytherin." Remus stabbed his fork on the half cooked sausage on his plate and stuffed into his mouth.

"He's right. You're a much better catch than he could ever be. Lily will soon realize that and leave that prat." Peter watched as Remus and Sirius went on and on about how stupid Lily's being. All the while plotting on how he could escape Hogwarts to go see his master. Voldemort. 'This is going to be easier than I thought. With Harry ruining things between Lily and James ... it'll be a piece of cake.'

"You shouldn't take that crap from James! He's an idiot anyways." Narcissa pushed away her bowl of cereal. "I don't think he should get mad over some guy. But I still think Slytherin's are evil. Even though most of them are hot." She looked at her friend who was staring at her cereal. 'What do I do? My best friend is mad at me ... but for once the guy who likes me isn't a player or has some evil scheme just to get back at James.' She rubbed her temples.

"Earth to Lily? Are you there? I don't like talking to myself."

Lily blinked. "Oh sorry Narcissa. I was just..."

"Daydreaming?"

"No ... just thinking about stuff."

She slapped her friends back. "Not to worry, your problem is experienced by everyone ... trust me. If two guys like you, you pick the hotter one." Her mind wandered off to Sirius.

"That's not my problem. My problem is that ... my best friend is hurt... by me."

"Exactly ... Severus is my best friend and I picked Sirius over him."

She looked at her friend with curiosity. "What do you mean you picked Sirius over Sev? Sirius doesn't even like you ..." Her friend frowned at the thought of her best friend saying something like that. "Lily ... I thought you're my friend." Tears formed in her eyes. "Why would you say something like that? I know he doesn't feel anything for me ... but you don't have to say it." She stormed off to her room.

'What have I done?' Lily, ashamed of what she's done, walked out of the Great Hall looking down on the floor. 'I shouldn't have said that to her.' Lily headed to her room and stared at herself in the mirror. 'What have I become? First I ditched my best guy friend and now I just dissed my best girl friend.' She sat there, not moving. She does have 30 more minutes until her first class starts.

She took her stuff and headed for potions. She had to walk with a couple of Gryffindors in case you-know-who might attack. She sighed and sat next to Draco-Harry. "Hi Harry." She smiled.

"Lily, why aren't you sitting with your own ... people?" He saw James glaring at him. 'What is she trying to do? Get me killed before my evil master plan works? Potters always ruin everything.'

"I-I just think that they wouldn't want me around ... after what happened."

"You mean between you and my- 'almost said mom' "Narcissa? I heard. Everyone's talking about it."

"Oh..." Lily frowned. Potions class was over and so the day went by quick. Slytherin's, except Draco-Harry, have ignored Lily, well ... they sneered at her a lot though. Not a happy thought.

After dinner, she was headed back to the common room. Even though they're mad at her too, for what she did to James. She felt someone tap her shoulder. It was Draco-Harry. He couldn't let her walk alone ... at a night like this. "Lily ... don't worry ... the whole thing will blow over way before I have to leave." She looked back at the boy. "Leave? Why do you have to leave?"

"I have to leave the day after tomorrow. I must go back home." 'And that doesn't leave me a lot of time to her away from James ... forever' "It's because I realized my parents have enrolled me in another school, so I'll be leaving soon."

"Well ... ok then. I'll see you tomorrow" She said goodbye to him as they reached the Gryffindor portrait.

Draco-Harry quickly headed for the Slytherin common room. He reached his room and tried reading 'The History of Hogwarts' to keep his mind of Lily. He's actually beginning to like her... not just for 'getting revenge on the Potters' purposes. Unfortunately he had fallen asleep.

It was a beautiful day. It was also a very beautiful garden. Filled with white flowers, white chairs, white bows hung on fences ... looks like a wedding. Two people stood in front of the altar. 'Who are they?' Draco-Harry stood there watching them. The 'man' turned around ... 'It's me... and ... don't tell me ... Pansy? Disgusting pug-faced Pansy?' the woman turned around ... it was...

Chapter 6/? : Truth to be told

Hermione. 'Granger? Oh no ... I married a Mudblood? This is SO NOT happening! Get out of my dream!' He franticly tried to wake himself up. The stupidest thing he did was jump in the pond located in the garden.

He woke up in cold sweat. "What the hell is going on? Why did I marry her?"

A crooked nosed boy also known as 'the nosy bookworm' looked at Draco-Harry with surprise. "Marry who?"

"A Mudblood-" He calmed down a bit. "-Why am I even talking to you? You wouldn't know anything."

"Try me." He sat on Draco-Harry's bed. Not that he's gay or anything ... he was just sitting down ... to talk.

"I promised someone ... that I wouldn't say anything at all ... to you people, but – never mind ... I think bad indigestion caused that painful dream...I mean painful ... not in a physical way but in a way that could destroy you mentally-I mean a Mudblood! I married a friggin Mudblood! It couldn't get any worse." He chuckled faintly. "I think I'll go back to bed ... and next time ... mind your own business. Or get a life of your own. You can't always live the Marauder's adventures."

"Who says I am?" He moved back to his own bed. "I'm just saying that ... lighten up. I mean just because they almost killed you ... don't mean you have to get up in their faces about it all the time. Not that I like them or anything ..."

"So what were you going to tell me ... about the dream?"

Draco-Harry didn't want to talk about it ... but if he told him, he'd at least have someone to plan 'stuff' with. "It's not really about the dream. The thing is ... I-I-I'm from the future. "

"WHAT? Future? We actually have a future ... I mean with Voldemort running around killing people ... I'm surprised people lived." He sat upright, looking at Draco-Harry intently.

"Well you'd be really surprised to find out who saved us all." He grinned. 'This is so going to piss him off so much when he finds out ...' "It's Harry Potter ... as in James' and Lily's son."

He nodded. It took a while for it to sink in. A boy his age from the future saying his enemy's son saved them all is a tiny bit hard to take in. "Harry ... so let me get this straight. You ... are ... James' son?"

"ARE YOU MAD? Hell no! I just changed my name so that people wouldn't recognize me." He pondered a bit on how to phrase things. "My name is actually Draco – get this, Malfoy. Draco Malfoy is my name."

"Lucius' son? And who ... pray tell ... is your mother?" He looked at him quizzically and then nodded, signaling him to continue. "My mother is none other than Narcissa. Sorry to burst your bubble."

"Really?... I'm surprised ... your mother liked your dad ... once-" He shrugged. "-until he started hitting her , abusing her ... in more ways than one– it's how they broke up." He knew it was true. He always heard his mother and father fighting. And he ended up hitting her ... but still – he's dad, isn't he? He hit him a lot too but again ... he's dad. "I know that ... but he's my dad. I can't choose whom my mother marries. And I would never help set you up with my mom ... I wouldn't want to be Draco Snape, now would I?" They both laughed. "Guess not ..."

"So tell me ... what are you going to do? Now that you've got complete control over destiny itself?"

"First things first ... get Lily away from James." He gasped. "How could you do that? Have you ever thought of what might happen if Harry wasn't born?"

"Yeah no more Mr. Popularity ..." Sev walked over to Draco and placed his hand on his shoulder. Again ... he's not gay.(A/n: unless you want him to be ... tell me) "No ... I meant that without Harry, you probably wouldn't be born. I know your dad is a death eater. But Voldemort would kill anyone. What if he killed your mother? You wouldn't be born, neither would any of your friends."

"I have no friends ..." He removed Severus' hand from his shoulder. "It doesn't matter anyway ... my dad would've wanted me to do this. I mean ... you know who ...he didn't exactly like the Gryffindors so maybe he's out to get them. I might just be helping them."

"But why? You have a lot of potential, I guess. I mean why become a Death Eater? You don't need to follow your father's footsteps. Follow your own."

He smiled ... "You definitely deserve to be a teacher ... boring ... yet I bet a lot of students learn from you."

"I'm a teacher?" Draco grabbed his robes and draped it over his shoulders. "Wouldn't you like to know?" He opened the door and left.

Draco hurried to the Great Hall. It was 8:00 am. A bunch of students were already there. Most were from Slytherins. 'We're known for not wanting to waste time ...' he thought and sat down next to some kid. "Hi Harry!" A read headed girl approached him. "Lily ... let me be frank ..."

"Can I be Bob then?"

He chuckled a bit. "Not funny. I mean ... let me be straight with you... as I said before, I like you, and I have to leave soon. So before I leave ... would you like to go out with me?"

Lily gazed into his eyes. Dreaming about their err... future date? "I would love to go out with you!"

"Really?" He grabbed her hand and held it for a mere 5 minutes. "Well ... due to the – you-know-who's reign ... I guess we'dhave to stick to Hogwarts grounds. Meet me down by the lake tonight." Oblivious to the fact that James over heard their entire conversation, Draco-Harry finally let go of her hand. "See you later."

~ * ~ * ~

While in the future...

"Harry? Is that you? What's wrong with your hair?" Hermione looked at the difference in her friend's hair. "It's ... blond?" Harry raised his eyebrows. He rushed into the boys wash room nearby. How convenient.

A loud scream could be heard coming from the wash room.

He took his hand and started pulling out his hair but it was too painful for him to stand it so he stopped. There was also another change in him ... his eyes ... they're blue-ish. "What is going on?" He ran out the wash room, hysterical, he ran to Dumbledore's office. Past the portraits, up the stairs and through the gargoyle. "Headmaster! You've got to help me ..." He stopped dead in his tracks. He realized he was taller than before. "Look at me ... my hair – eyes – height! I look like ... Malfoy!" Dumbledore just nodded. "I understand he went against my orders."

Harry looked at Dumbledore as if he was speaking in a different language. "No offense but it's not the time to talk in metaphors. And besides I didn't go against any orders." He shut his mouth when he realized who he was talking to. "I'm not referring to you, Mr. Potter. However ... one of your – peers has gone against my orders."

Harry shook his head. "Ron and Hermione would never go against your orders, sir."

"I'm not talking about them. Anyways ... just accept this for now ... everything will be back to normal – I hope." Harry looked at him dumbfounded. "Please tell me what's going on? Is this another one of Vol- uh...you-know-who's plans?" Now it's the old man's turn to shake his head. "I'm afraid not. But this is way out of your hands. The whole 'now' isn't going to change totally until he comes back."

"Forgive me but ... WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" He pounded his fist on the headmaster's table really hard. (A/N: Kinda like Maney and his wall eh? P/J) So hard that his pencil holder fell on the floor. "Do you really want to know the truth Mr. Potter?"

"Of course I do! I'm old enough to handle these things." Harry looked down on the floor waiting for Dumbledore to answer. A few minutes passed yet it was still silent ... until "You're right. I've thought about it ... and you do deserve to know. First of all, if my memory serves me well, I remember Mr. Malfoy coming to the past. He pretended to be you and well all I know is that your mom and your dad will have no chance to get together."

"I don't get it. If you said that Draco right? If you said that he went back in time ... and my mom and my dad aren't ... together ... then how come I am here and I have memories of the night Vol- uh... you-know-who killed my parents." Dumbledore stood up and looked out the window. Avoiding Harry. "I said ... that the whole 'now' – or the present will not fully change until he comes back. People's memories haven't yet been altered, aside from mine. And physical change in anyone will not fully show until – tomorrow, I presume?"

"How do you know he's coming back tomorrow?"

"Well Mr. Potter all time traveling spells only lasts for three whole days or 72 hours to be precise. So just subtract the number of hours Mr. Malfoy's been missing from 72 and that's how much time til he'll get back." Draco haven't seen Malfoy since dinner so he assume he'd be gone after dinner. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1. "72 minus 42 uh..." He started counting in his head. He wasn't much of a math wiz. "30 hours left. A day and 6 hours. I've got to do something before it's too late."

Dumbledore stopped Harry. "You can't ...

Chapter 7/? : Don't You See...

I won't let you... let Mr. Malfoy handle things on his own." Dumbledore stroked his long beard. "I'm sure he knows better than to do 'that' to your mom ... or even you."

"You don't know him. He's selfish. He's just going to do things to his own advantage." Harry said sharply.

"Mr. Potter ... don't be to quick to judge somebody. He's not all bad." And with that Dumbledore allowed Harry to leave his office.

~ * ~ * ~

"Lily ... you are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." It was time for their date. Draco-Harry had been practicing on his mirror. He grinned and combed his hair again. "6:55 – I have five minutes to meet her out on the lake." He grabbed his robe and left the Slytherin common room.

He walked out onto Hogwarts grounds. There she was ... sitting near the lake as she was asked to do so. "Lily!" He warned her ... there was a shadowy figure approaching her from the Forest. "Lily!" She looked at Draco-Harry with happiness but she frowned when she saw how he was reacting. "Behind you!" He ran as fast as he could to save Lily ... but the mysterious figure grabbed hold of Lily and Disapparated away from Hogwarts grounds. Draco-Harry ran to the lake shore to search for any clues on this captor. But no luck... well he found a pen... it could be anyone's. He looked at the pen once more ... it seemed familiar – the initials L.M. caught his eye. Lucius Malfoy! "Son of a –" He raced to Dumbledore's office. "Headmaster! Lily's been kidnapped! I found this pen ... it's my fathers. I know that there's a possibility that my dad could've dropped it a long time ago ... but it looks good as new. All I'm trying to figure out is how did my father Disapparate from Hogwarts." He stopped to catch his breath and tried to continue...

"Slow down ... Ok first of all – why were you and Lily uh... outside after hours?" The Headmaster asked but he knew the reason ... he may be old but he knew a thing or two about teenagers these days.

"Iaskedheronadate" Draco looked away ...

"I know ... I just want to hear it from you ... but you know that is it wrong to change the future."

"Yes headmaster ... but Lily's been kidnapped ... I have to save her, don't I?" He asked the headmaster.

Dumbledore stood up and looked outside his window. "Look ..." He motioned for him to come to the window. "Lily disappeared over down by the lake and near the woods right?" Draco-Harry nodded. "Well even though the forest is part of Hogwarts ... people are allowed to Apparate and Disapparate there ... that answers one of your questions. And as for saving her ... you could try – but you won't necessarily find her. I mean you don't know where they went do you?"

"No sir."

"Don't feel bad ... I'm sure the Marauders can help you."

Draco-Harry blinked ... have heard right? 'The Marauders help me?' He thought. 'That's impossible ... bunch of Gryffindors would never help a Slytherin' – " Gryffindors and Slytherins don't mix sir. It's like the monkey/dog relationship. Dogs have been the dominant one among the two but then recently monkeys were sent to space so the dogs is trying to be better than the monkey ... so they hate each other so much. We used to be the dominant ones but then Gryffindors ... well more like Mr. Potter took it all away from us. It all started with James."

"I understand ... but you need them to help you – it has something to do with a certain ... map."

Draco-Harry looked at him, puzzled. 'Map ... ok – I think the headmaster has totally lost it.' "Map? Wh – what kind of map sir?"

"The Marauder's map ... now please leave and ask them to help you. You don't have a lot of time." Draco nodded and left the headmaster's office. 'Marauder's map eh? I don't know how a map is going to help me...' He looked for the Marauders ... dungeons ... nope – Great Hall ... nope – Kitchen ... nope – Gryffindor common room .... He stood in front of the portrait of the Fat lady.

"Password?" The fat lady looked at the boy. "I've never seen you before ... who are you?"

"Huh? Oh my name is Harry..."

"Uh huh password?"

"... Gryffindor's rule?" Much to his surprise ... the Portrait swung open. He entered a very warm looking place compared to his own common room. Red and gold, everywhere. "Longbottom! What are you doing here?" questioned James. "Well? Are you going to answer my question or not?"

Draco-Harry snapped back to reality. "Oh Dumbledore sent me here."

"Why?" James laughed. "That is funniest thing I've ever heard. Dumbledore wanting you to come here ..." He suddenly stopped laughing when he saw that Draco-Harry was actually serious. "You're serious huh?"

"Who said my name?" Sirius Black jumped at the sound of his name.

"NOTHING! I'm talking to some Slytherin scum right now ..."

'Scum – what a nice name to call the only person who can save Lily' "It's Lily ... she's gone. I can't find her ... my f – f – father kidnapped her."

"You scum! I knew it! Slytherins are bad!" James punched Draco-Harry in the eye. "Stupid Scum ..." Hit. "Why did you pick Lily?" Punch. "I'm going to kill you if you don't say anything." Hit.

"Calm down James." Remus grabbed the 'furious' James away from Draco-Harry. He glanced at the boy lying on the floor. Bleeding. "No really what do you want?"

"Dumbledore said something about the Marauder's map." James, Sirius and Remus' lit up. "Marauder's map? What's that?" They all pretended not to know which really pissed him off. "As I said before ... Lily's been kidnapped by my ... father. Anyways the headmaster told me to ask you about the Marauder's Map ... something that'll help me find her so I can save her."

"What makes you think that you're going to save her?"

"Cause you don't deserve her ... I do." 'What? Did I just say that?' Draco-Harry was confused. The only reason he's doing this is to make Potter suffer ... he didn't really have feelings for her ... or did he? "What the hell does that mean?" James threatened to punch him again. "Look James ... I know you don't like me ... and I don't like you and I never will. But this is about Lily ... give me the map and I'll save her."

Remus looked worried. He reached into his pocket and pulled out ... what seems to be a blank piece of parchment. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." Mumbled Remus. A map of Hogwarts appeared and in moments dots appeared. Labeled dots. Dumbledore ... Mme. Pomfrey ... James ... Remus ... Sirius ... Draco... "Draco? Is that your real name?" Remus eyed him suspiciously.

"You might as well know that my real name is Draco Malfoy."

"Lucius' brother? He never mentioned a brother." James looked quite smug to know that kind of information about some Slytherin 'scum'. "Or are you something ... or someone else?"

"Oh naïve James. I am not his brother" laughed Draco. "For I am his son." He said the word 'son' with a bit more expression. "So Lucius kidnapped Lily?" Draco nodded. He hated his father for hitting his mother ... for hitting him and now he kidnaps an innocent, or so he thought, Gryffindor girl. "How old is Lucius anyway? How can he have a child who's only a year younger than him." Now it was Remus' turn to laugh at James. "He traveled back in time ... obviously."

"Is that true err.. Draco?" Draco nodded. 'Damn it! They figured it out ... I guess it's good to have it out in the open...'

"I seriously have NO time to explain everything right now ... just hand over the map and I'll leave." Remus pulled the map away from Draco. "You can't use this ... it's only a map of Hogwarts, I'll make one for a map of the whole Wizarding world in England. It'll take me 5 minutes to find the map, and read the incantation ... that'll give you time to tell us what is going on."

"Fine ... go look for the map now then." Remus nodded and he went off to find the map.

"Ok so I was doing this project for Prof. Flitwick. I was supposed to translate French into English. I found this love charm thing ... I was having trouble with girls ... there's this girl I like and she's just so mean to me ... well it's because I was mean to her first but I thought we –" he was cut off by James. "Hurry up and get to the time traveling part" growled James. "Fine ... anyways as I was about to read the spell, I noticed my wand on the floor, when I went to pick it up, I guess the wind blew the book to another page so I ended up reading a time traveling spell. There happy now?"

"So you know we're older than you ... so then why are you courting Lily – she's too old for you."

'Uh-oh what am I supposed to say ... I'm courting your future girlfriend so my arch-enemy wouldn't be born but instead live with the fact that he looks like me ... I don't think so'. "Well you see..." 'think ... think' "I-I-I was courting Lily because ..." 'Because what?' Draco trembled in fear but of course he didn't show it. 'Oh screw it! I'll tell them the truth ... it'll ease my mind'. "BECAUSE I HATE YOUR SON AND IF I WENT OUT WITH LILY ... YOUR SON WILL NEVER BE BORN!" Draco screamed. 'Ok now that wasn't so hard was it' "Easy for you to say ..." he mumbled.

"WHAT? Lily and I are going to have children together? Wow –"

Draco shook his head. "No not children ... a child. But you won't get to know him because of some horrid reason." 'I don't like them but I don't like the fact that you-know-who killed them'.

"What happens to us?" James looked at Draco. He sat down on the nearest arm chair and clutched the armrest. "You wouldn't want to know ..." Draco's voice trailed off. "But since you asked, I guess I should tell you. Vol – you-know-who is going to kill you and Lily." Sirius hand slipped of the table he was leaning on. "For real? What about me?" Draco hesitated for a minute ... but you know how he is in keeping promises. "Well you'll be thrown in Azkaban for 13 years and you escaped ... I don't know how but you did... I bet it has something to do with that Potter."

"Me?" Asked James.

"No ... I said that you're going to die ... how can dead people save prisoners ... a very unlikely story. By Potter I meant Harry, your son." Remus rushed back from his room waving around a map of Wizarding places. "I finished the map." It was a map of London and thousands of red dots appeared. There it was ... Lily. Her dot was accompanied by another dot labeled Lucius Malfoy. Seems they're headed for the Malfoy Manor. "What's your father going to do to her?"

"I don't know ... so I'm going after her!" Draco ran to the exit but he was stopped by James.

Chapter 8/? : Forever in my Heart

"Can I come with you?" James looked at Draco with pleading eyes.

"I suppose you could." Draco smiled and nodded. After all he didn't want to face his dad alone. Even if it was James Potter who has to accompany him.

'Have I gone daft? Why did I have to let him come with me? What will people think? I'm a coward? No that can't be. I'm the bigger man since I told the truth or is James the bigger man since he's technically supposed to be older than me? I never thought I'd be going after a Mudblood. All my life, I've been taught to hate Mudbloods, my father said that it's how life is supposed to be. But then again ... who cares about my father, he's a bastard.'

"Draco?" James looked at Draco who was staring at the window intently.

"Huh? Oh sorry ... I was thinking about stuff." He replied solemnly. He looked sad and tired though he couldn't be since he hasn't done anything yet, aside from thinking about his father. His abusive father.

"Like what kind of stuff?" He wanted to know what's going on ... 'My friend ... my dear friend Lily, what is going to happen to you. I do not wish to think that something had already happened. Something unforgivable. I hope you are alright.'

Draco sighed as the carriage started moving. "My father."

"Oh? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to ... I'll understand. I don't want to talk about my father either. I know it's completely off topic. He has nothing to do with anything but all I'm going to say is that I'm ashamed of my father."

Draco didn't seem too interested. He just looked at the window once again.

Lucius ushered Lily into his bedroom, and told her to sit on the bed, while he sat on the stool. Lily looked into Lucius' eyes, there was something sinister about them...

Stop imagining things, Lily told herself. Lucius got up, locked the door, and threw the key under the door into the hallway. Lily now, definitely, felt uneasy. "Uh... Lucius?" Lucius moved over to him, and pushed her flat against the bed. "Lucius!?!?" Lily cried out in alarm. Lucius just slapped her- hard. Lucius then proceeded to hold Lily down, as he tied her hands and feet to the bed. Lily knew that she was in major trouble. Lucius raped Lily. (a/n: I'm not actually going to describe it any further)

Tears formed in Lily's eyes. 'I thought he was my friend *sniffs* I am crying, yes, Because I can not wash it away. I can not wash away this awful feeling, Like a steel knot in my stomach. I can not wash away the memories. His smirk, His threats, His touch, My agony, My fear, My unwillingness. And I can not wash away the fact Of what he did to me. That is burned forever in my heart. Then I heard a voice ... could he be my savoir?'

"LILY!" Two boys err men barged in the door.

Lucius let go of Lily and dropped her on the bed. "How'd you two get in here?" He put on his robe and had his wand ready but hesitated to do anything since one of the boys looked like him. "And why do you look like me?"

"Hi ... dad." He emphasized on the word dad. He loathed his father ... (A/n: and I can't repeat that enough.) It's the truth and yet no one ever bothered to ask him about. They always thought he'd be a Death-Eater like his father and his father's father ... well to make it plain and simple... his ancestors were evil ever since the reign of Grindelwald? (A/n: I forgot his name)

"Dad? I – I'm your father?" he stuttered incorrigibly.

Draco just shrugged as to imply that he didn't like the idea that he was his son. "Yeah I come from the future and I'm not proud of being your son. Because of our stupid surname, I was – and still hated by 1/3 of Hogwarts! They think I might turn into a Death-Eater like you ... but I won't! And yet no one would listen! Why? Because they don't trust me ... and it's all your fault!"

"Don't blame things on me boy! I know you don't want me to be your father ... that can be arranged! All I have to do is avoid whomever your mother is! She's probably a wench I-"

"Lucius!" 'I, Lily Evans am baffled. That boy could be my son ... and that – thing called me a wench!' "What the hell is wrong with you! How dare you call me a wench?" She grabbed the nearest object to her – which was a pillow – and hurled it at Lucius.

"Lily! Don't worry ... it's not you. In fact it's just as well that it wasn't you ... I wouldn't want you to feel the pain my mother has to go through with this ... bastard."

"I don't know you that well right now ... but I know why you had to go through all that shit ... from the looks of it; it's cause you're a horrible son ..." Lucius walked over to Lily and slapped her. "And as for you ... you have no right to talk to me in that tone of voice!"

James lunged for Lucius but Draco stopped him. "Don't ... I want to be the first to hit him." And with that Draco punched Lucius in the face.

"How dare you ... son of a-" He stood up and was about to hit Draco but ...

"Don't you dare call Narcissa anything!" Lucius was interrupted by James who kicked him in the shins.

"H-how do you do know Narcissa was my mother?"

"Oh maybe the fact that Lucius was going out with Narcissa for the past 9 months."

"No need for sarcasm ..." Draco glared at his father once more but he calmed down a bit so he didn't kill his father ... yet, who knows what the future holds for Lucius Malfoy.

"24 hours left. What am I going to do now?" Harry looked back at himself in the mirror. His face as pale as Draco's and his hair ... silvery blonde like Draco's hair as well. Things were looking very bad.

"Harry!!" A girl barged into the boys washroom – totally unexpected and forbidden – yet she was there. "Look at what I found! I was researching in the library and I found a spell to turn your hair black ... I know you still would have Draco's err... face but it's a consolation. You would at least have your untidy black hair." She smiled at him ... wishing and hoping that he'd be impressed. She liked Harry since their first year yet he paid no attention to her. I mean he 'hung out' with her but he looked at her as if she was 'one of the guys'. Then she remembered a Muggle song she heard in a Muggle movie.

Wishin', and hopin', and thinkin', and prayin',

Plannin', and dreamin' each night of his charms,
That won't get you into his arms.

So if you're lookin' to find love you can share...
All you gotta do is:
Hold him, and kiss him, and love him,
And show him that you care.

Show him that you care, just for him.
Do the things that he likes to do.
Wear your hair, just for him...
'Cause you won't get him thinkin' and a-prayin',
Wishin' and a-hopin', just...

Wishin', and hopin', and thinkin', and prayin',
Plannin', and dreamin' his kisses will start,
That won't get you into his heart.

So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is,
All you gotta do is:
Hold him, and kiss him, and squeeze him, and love him,
Just do it, and after you do,
You will be his.

Show him that you care, just for him.
Do the things that he likes to do.
Wear your hair, just for him.
'Cause you won't get him thinkin' and a-prayin',
Wishin' and a-hopin', just...

Wishin', and hopin', and thinkin', and prayin',
Plannin', and dreamin' his kisses will start,
That won't get you into his heart.

So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is,
All you gotta do is:
Hold him, and kiss him, and squeeze him, and love him,
Just do it, and after you do,
You will be his...
You will be his...
You will be his...

Hermione snapped back to reality. In truth she knows that he won't ever be interested in her. He's been fascinated by Cho Chang and Harry isn't the kind of guy to give up even though she's turned him down lots of times. Even now, she already graduated yet Harry hasn't even forgotten her name. Cho isn't her only competition ... Lavender, Pavarti and Ginny have crushes on him and those 3 girls are determined to get Harry. And the other reason she couldn't just come out and tell him the truth is because she had just dumped Ron... Harry would think he'd be just a rebound. Hermione felt bad inside but tried to keep a happy face. "So Harry ... do you like your hairstyle?" she asked after she recited the incantation.

"It looks fantastic." Harry mused as he looked in the mirror examining his hair. It looked like the one he had before ... before he had turned into Draco Malfoy that is. 'That stupid ferret went back in time just to spite me...' "Damn him!"

"Damn who?"
Harry didn't realize he said his thoughts out loud. "Oh ... Malfoy, of course! That stupid git ... he thinks he can change the future by going to the past ..."

"Uh ... Harry ... he did change the future by going to the past ..."

"That's not what I meant. I mean that if Malfoy thinks he can get away with this... he is sadly mistaken."

Hermione rolled her eyes at her best friend. She likes him and all but sometimes he sounds ... stupid. 'Honestly, how does Harry think he can do something to prevent this from happening ... I mean he only has 24 hours. I mean in the 6 hours he had found out Malfoy had gone back in time ... he sure didn't find anything that could possibly be of help.' "Harry ... you have 24 hours. And how do you propose you find a way to stop him."

"You could help me. And so could Ron."

"As if Ron would be any help."

"I'm right here you know ..." He had forgiven Hermione for going off on that trip and he was actually sorry that he acted like a prat but he wasn't about to be insulted by her. "... besides I've changed. I actually did some reflecting on the things I've done in the past ... and I decided to straighten up. You know ... do work."

"He's got you there 'Mione." Harry chuckled at the –now glaring- Hermione.

"Ok so his grades have improved in the past 2 days ... as if that makes any difference. I've been getting good grades since ... since... since EVER! And I don't hear anyone cheering for me?"

"But 'Mione ... Ron ... is well ... struggling, it's not his fault all this smartness comes to you but not you him. Anyways his improvement is showing. In the two days he's been at Hogwarts, he's finished all his homework even before it was due and Snape even gave us 10 points because Ron had answered all his questions in potions class."

"I answer his questions ..."

"But it's natural for you –" Harry put his arm around Hermione but removed it quickly when he saw Ron staring at him as if he was about to murder him. Even though Ron had forgiven Hermione, he had not gotten over the fact that she chose her studies before she chose him and he still loved her. It was obvious to Harry but to Hermione, Ron was just a friend.

"And it's un-natural for me to answer questions ... Snape must've thought it was a miracle and miracles only happen once in a lifetime therefore he knew that he wouldn't have to give Gryffindor anymore points since it was only a one time thing."

"Well I have a theory." Hermione knew that Snape wouldn't just give us points ... besides she wants to be the know-it-all that gets their house points.

Harry and Ron groaned. "Alright fine ... let's hear it!" Harry coaxed.

"Well my theory is that; since Draco ..." She coughed. Saying his name was weird ... but it was pleasant. 'Pleasant?!' She thought. 'I don't think his name sounds pleasant' Hermione started making gagging noises with her throat but continued. "...Malfoy – since Malfoy is um... lost, Snape must've thought that Malfoy inhabited Ron's body so he gave us points."

"Funny..." they all laughed but Ron and Hermione stopped when Harry started twitching ... he was changing again ...
