All it took was a baby Ginny to fall in love


Edward, he begun to explain the situation and the plan to all them, as quickly as possible, knowing time wasn’t currently on their side, as far as executing their plan was concerned.

“First of all, I would like to confirm my wife and I, along with more then half of the people in this room, are going to be taking a trip back in time. The trip in question will last a total of three years.”

Sirius asked “Who is being expected to go?” Helene answered “Everyone in this room, bar Mr. and Mrs Weasley and professors Dumbledore and McGonagall.”

Mrs. Weasley asked horrified “What! Even Ginny in her current state?” Edward nodded and said “Precisely. She’ll be perfectly fine, as at the start of the time line in question, in which we are going to be staying, James Potter is already in the exact same predicament.”

Remus turned to Molly and told her reassuringly, “I promise that I along with Sirius and Tonks will be there to watch her. And of course neither, Harry, Ron or Hermione is going to let her be harmed if they have any say in the matter.”

Molly still looked terrified for her daughter, but remained silent, allowing the meeting to continue. Edward and the others chucked as Ginny tried to make another grab for Harry’s glasses. Harry gently removed her hands and shook his head and held her hands.

Ginny pouted and said, “Bad Hawy.” Harry chuckled and took out his wand, before tapping the side of the frame of his glasses. There was a dim violet glow, before a pair of glasses identical to the ones he was wearing appeared, but in a smaller scale.

He handed them to Ginny and said, “There, play with those, it doesn’t matter if you break or slobber all over those.” Ginny beamed up at him adoringly, causing Harry to blush at the sight of it, and of course Sirius, Remus, Ron and Tonks were sniggering at the colour his face had turned.

Harry cleared his throat and glowered at then before saying “Shouldn’t we be getting on with this, isn’t time of the essence all of that mumbo jumbo?” The others smirked at him knowingly, recognising the distraction tactic.

Edward and Helene decided to spare Harry the embarrassment, knowing if he was pushed hard enough, then he’d refuse to work with them, it was he who was the main key to making their plan work, they needed him.

Edward cleared his throat and said, “We are going back in time, this time period in particular because, not only is Voldemort less powerful and packing a lesser punch, all the events that should have happened and didn’t happen how they were meant to.”

He added, “Which means this part of the time line was mangled, mangled to the point that it resembles an alternative reality.” He paused and took in the reaction of everyone in the room.

Hermione asked, “How altered, exactly?” Helene replied, “Some people who are alive in this time line, should have been dead in the original intend line. While others such as the Potter’s should be very much alive. And the Longbottom’s, they surely should have never been in the situation that led to their sanity being destroyed.”

Edward turned to face Molly and Arthur and informed them sadly. “Your entire brother’s combined for example. They should still be alive and married with large families of their own, just like your own.”

Arthur and Molly looked horrified and more then a little angry, at what was so selfishly taken from them, what should have never been taken in the first place.

Helene turned to Hermione and told her. “You should have been a half blood like Harry, as in the original line, your father had been a wizard. But naturally Voldemort figured if you were muggle born you would somehow be less powerful or intelligent, which proves how much that barbaric fool knows.”

Edward added, “You should have had at least two other siblings of your own.” Hermione looked angered as well as on the verge of tears. She was enraged that Voldemort had taken from her, more then she could have ever imagined.

Edward looked at Ginny, who was still playing happily with the smaller replica of Harry’s glasses. He said sadly, “Little Ginny, she should have never known what it felt like to be touched and controlled by such a vile and evil spirit. Meaning the Chamber of Secrets should have never been opened a second time. And the Basilisk should have never been unleashed on the school.”

Helene smiled sympathetically at the little girl and said, “She and Harry should have grown up together, with their other siblings. Harry should have never noticed Cho like he has. That attention was originally intended for Ginny and Ginny alone.”

Edward turned to Remus. He told Remus. “You should have been the defence against the dark arts professor, well before Harry’s third year. In fact that role should have been yours as soon as you’d graduated from Hogwarts. Meaning the teaching position shouldn’t have been classed as being cursed.”

He added, “And the school wouldn’t have ever known you were a werewolf in Harry’s third year. Only those in your circle of friends and family would have known.”

He went on. “Severus wasn’t supposed to out you, in fact he should have been a close friend and confidant of the Marauders since your fourth year, meaning he should have been an Animagus and a member of the Marauders.”

Sirius asked incredulously, “A friend and confidant of the Marauders?” Helene chuckled, “Oh yes indeed. Severus Snape had been destined for greater and better things then he unfortunately received in this time line. He was well and truly robbed of what should have rightfully been his all along.”

Edward chuckled and added, “In fact, he should have never been a death eater, but a member of the order. The position of spy should have gone to Sirius’s older brother, after the Marauders persuaded Severus to not join Voldemort, that he would be protected, along with Petunia.”

He turned to Harry and smirked as he revealed, “You should have had an uncle Sev instead of an uncle Vernon. Your aunt Petunia was meant to be a muggle born witch like your mother. She was meant to be a Slytherin, before she married to Severus and have his children. Dudley should have never been born.”

Harry paled, looking more then a little ill, to say the least. Sirius couldn’t say he blamed him either. Merlin, that was seriously crazy. Snape a Marauder and Harry’s originally intended uncle.

Helene went on, “Lucius Malfoy, well, he should have been killed in the first war. He was never meant to marry Narcissa Black. She had been intended for another. She should have been married to Barty Crouch Jr, who also shouldn’t have been a death eater, but a member of the order. So this means Draco Malfoy had not been born in the original line.”

She went on, “The Malfoy line she have ended after Lucius’s death at the wand tip of Voldemort.” Edward shook his head and continued where she had left off. “The world should have never had to contend with the Malfoy’s.”

Harry and Ron instantly protested fiercely. Harry grumbled in disgust, “Ah man, that’s just wrong and sick on so many levels. I can’t believe he was allowed to pollute this time line. I can’t believe the Malfoy were allowed to breed, full stop.”

Ron growled venomously, “If he knew what was good for him, he should have stayed unborn. He would have been doing everyone a serious favour. And because he’s so selfish and spoilt and Voldie is a sadistic monster, we were all troubled with the incredible bouncing albino ferret’s worthless excuse for a life and presence.”

Harry and surprisingly even Hermione snorted at Ron’s incredible bouncing albino ferret comment. All three members of the trio were smirking, as they thought back to their fourth year and the “Mad Eye Moody” impostor had transfigured Malfoy into a ferret.

Minerva, who knew exactly what the trio were thinking of sniffed and looked at them disapprovingly. Edward and Helene also knew what had happened that year. They secretly thought it was hilarious, as well.

Helene went on “Peter Pettigrew should have not turned against his friends, he was in fact meant to fight at the front line for the order. He should have married Stella Monroe from Ravenclaw. He was meant to have children with her. He was also meant to work in the muggle artefacts department in the ministry.”

Edward turned to Sirius and said, “Your cousin Bellatrix should have been killed by Voldemort, after she failed to gain access to the Longbottom’s.” He added at Sirius questioning look.

“You and Aimee Storm were supposed to marry straight out of Hogwarts, just like James and Lily did. Aimee was supposed to discover the truth. The truth being that you were innocent and that the girl from Hufflepuff forced herself onto you, just as Aimee had been coming into view.”

He added, as he took in the look of sick horror on Aimee’s face and the look of pure anger and disgust on Sirius’s own face. “Lucius Malfoy had paid the girl to set you up, so he could sleep with Aimee, then spread it around the whole school, that Aimee Storm was easy and a scarlet woman.”

Sirius let out a bark like laugh and crowed, as he looked in Aimee’s direction. He sneered, “So what do you think of that Storm, how’s it feel to be in the wrong, you miserable little bitch?”

Aimee glowered at Sirius, as tears of shame and anger filled her bright blue eyes. Sirius said coldly, “Save your tears Storm, as they ain’t gonna work on me. You burnt you bridges with me, when you chose to not give me the benefit of the doubt.”

He spat with pure venom, “When you spread around the school that I was a queer and had been doing all of the houses, Slytherin’s included. Merlin even Remus was supposedly one of my sexual conquests.”

He went on. “Did it ever occur to you that I had truly and genuinely been in love with you, that you broke my heart when you broke your promise to me? And also that I’d been planning on asking you to marry me when we graduated.”

He concluded, looking genuinely pained. “I loath the fact that it is still you who holds my heart. Merlin I hate you, but can’t help loving you at the same time. I spent most of my time in Azkaban, hopping the dementors would have sucked out all of the memories of you, but they never did, they weren’t that merciful.”

Aimee sat rigidly in her chair. A single tear trailed down her cheek, as she eyed Sirius in horror. She was seething, seething over the fact because of her stupidity and lack of faith in Sirius, that she had lost the only man she had ever loved and would ever love. She knew she deserved to lose and not have Sirius.”

Helene cleared her throat uncomfortably and said, “Anyway back to the reason we are here. Whatever problems that any of you have right now, well, they can be sorted later, as now is not the time, nor is it the place.”

She said, “Harry, you weren’t supposed to be the boy who lived. There shouldn’t have been a scar on your forehead either. You were supposed to grow up as a normal and happy child, with your parents and other siblings.”

Edward added, “Voldemort should have been killed by James Potter on the same night he ended up being killed. It was your father who was supposed to be the one famous for killing Voldemort.”

Helene continued on where her husband had left off. “Voldemort shouldn’t have had all the power he currently has. He should have had his power surge, like all witches and wizards have, when they reach their seventeenth birthday. And that should have been that.”

Edward concluded, “The prophecy should have been about your father defeating Voldemort. It should have mentioned how James would have protected you and Lily and fought to the death. Either his death or Voldemort’s, only if Voldemort won the world would be doomed and submerged into pure darkness.”

Hermione shook her head and said in horror. “You described what happened to the time line perfectly. It has been completely mangled, there isn’t any other way to describe it.”

Helene smiled sadly and revealed, “You three shouldn’t have been a trio. In your first year you should have had nine of you and eleven in your second year.”

Ron asked who would have those members been?” Edward replied, “In your first year, it would have been you, Harry, Hermione, the oldest son of Sirius, Neville Longbottom and the oldest daughter of Severus and Petunia.”

Helene added, “In your second year, Ginny would have joined, as would have the oldest son of Barty Crouch Jr and Narcissa Crouch.” Everyone watched the trio’s reaction to what they had been told.

Harry, Ron and Hermione looked angered. Angered over the fact they hadn’t allowed either Ginny or Neville into their little group, as they always should have been.

Harry asked, “Once we change the time line, will we all remember this one as well?” Edward nodded and replied, “Yes, those who were in both time lines and were meant to be alive will have knowledge of both. But those who weren’t born and should have been they will only remember the new time line.”
