Okay, not everything went black after I passed out, along with Harry and Sirius. A lot of the dreams I was having all year just kept coming back to me. They were flooding my thoughts, making it hard for me to really do anything but just watch them all over again.

"Harry? Max?"

Harry and I both woke up at the same time. We were in the Hospital Wing, it looked like. "We saw our dad," Harry spoke up first.

Hermione was worried when Harry said that. "What?"

"He sent the Dementors away," I added. "We saw him across the lake."

"Our mum was there, too," Harry said. "Her Patronus was there, we saw it."

Hermione listened to everything we said, but she told us something bigger than what we told her. "You guys, they've captured Sirius. Any minute the Dementors are gonna perform the Kiss."

Harry and I shot up out of our beds, standing up straight. "You mean, they're gonna kill him?" I asked her in a worried tone.

"No. It's worse. Much worse. They're going to suck out his soul," Hermione replied.

"Was that supposed to make us feel any better?" I asked her.

But before she could answer, Dumbledore came in. He stopped when he saw us. The three of us went over to him. Hermione was the first to say something to him. "Headmaster, you've got to stop them. They've got the wrong man."

"It's true, sir. Sirius is innocent," Harry added.

"It was Scabbers who did it," Ron spoke up from behind us. I didn't even know he was there, so I jumped when he first spoke.

"Scabbers?" Dumbledore repeated.

"He's my rat, sir," Ron replied. "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--"

"The point is, we know the truth. Please believe us," Hermione interrupted him.

"I do, Miss Granger. But the word of four thirteen year old wizards will convince few others. A child's voice, however honest and true is meaningless to those who have forgotten how to listen." Dumbledore looked at the three of us. "Mysterious thing, time." Dumbledore continued. "It's powerful and when meddled with, dangerous. Sirius Black is in the topmost cell of the Dark Tower. You know the laws, 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."

Consequences? What was he going on about? I was scared now. But if Hermione knew what he was talking about, then everything was all good.

Dumbledore continued on with Hermione. "If you succeed tonight, more than one innocent life may be spared. Three turns should do it, I think." He started walking to the doors and told her one more thing before shutting the doors. "Oh, and by the way, when in doubt, I find retracing my steps to be a wise place to begin. Good luck." He smiled at us, shutting the doors, leaving the four of us alone again.

"What the bloody hell was that all about?" Ron asked in confusion.

Hermione turned to him. "Sorry, Ron, but seeing as you can't walk, we're going without you." Hermione took off a necklace she was wearing and wrapped it around Harry's neck and mine as well.

"We? What are you talking about? Where are we going?" I asked.

Hermione started playing with the necklace. Harry tried to touch it, but Hermione slapped his hand away. She turned it three times and watched it carefully. It started spinning fast and everything around us was going in what it looked like reverse. Soon, it was daylight again and everything around us stopped moving.

Hermione took the necklace off of us and tucked it back in her shirt. Harry and I were confused at what just happened.

"What just happened? Where's Ron?" Harry asked frantically.

"Seven thirty. Where were we at seven thirty?" Hermione asked us.

"I don't know. Going to Hagrid's?" I spoke up.

"Come on, and we can't be seen," Hermione informed us. She took off running, leaving us standing there, confused.

I followed after her, with Harry beside me, calling Hermione's name over and over. But she ignored us and kept on running.

"Hermione! Hermione, wait!"

"Yeah, please wait! I think I'm about to throw up," I said, panting. We were running the same way we went when we were going down to Hagrid's three hours ago. Harry and I were still confused at what was going on. I thought I was gonna vomit right there, but I didn't want anyone else to notice us. "Hermione, can you please tell us what it is that we're doing?" I asked her.

But once again, she ignored me. She stopped in her tracks and what we saw shocked us. It was the four of us and our encounter with Malfoy.

"That's us," Harry said. We watched as Hermione had her wand at Malfoy's throat.

"This is not normal!" I told them. Hermione pinned us against the wall and took out her necklace.

"This is a Time-Turner, you guys. McGonagall gave it to me in the first term. This is how I've been getting to my lessons all year," she explained to us.

"You mean, we've gone back in time?" Harry asked.

Hermione nodded. "Yes. Dumbledore obviously wanted us to return to this moment." She went back to us and Malfoy. "Clearly something happened and he wants us to change it." Then we saw Hermione punch Malfoy square in the nose.

"Good punch," Harry commented.

Hermione grinned. "Thanks."

"Next time, go for his balls," I added.

"That's if he has any," Harry chuckled.

Hermione's grin soon turned into a serious face. "Malfoy's coming!" We jumped out from the exit and into the ground, hearing Malfoy swear revenge on Hermione. We were heading down to Hagrid's, it looked like, so we treaded carefully, hoping they wouldn't see us. We stopped when we got to the top of the hill.

"Look! Buckbeak's still alive!" Harry exclaimed.

"Of course! Remember what Dumbledore said? If we succeed, more than one innocent life could be spared," Hermione reminded us.

We headed down to Hagrid's Hut and hid behind Hagrid's massive pumpkins. While Hagrid was talking about how Dumbledore was a great man, Dumbledore himself was coming down for Buckbeak's execution.

"Here they come. I better hurry." Harry stood up, but Hermione stopped him.

"Fudge has to see Buckbeak before we steal him. Otherwise, he'll think Hagrid set him free," she said.

We saw Ron take Scabbers out of Hagrid's hands. Harry and I were filled with anger. "That's Pettigrew," I informed them.

Hermione grabbed my arm so I wouldn't go anywhere. "Max, you can't!"

"Hermione, that's the man who betrayed our parents, you don't expect me to just sit here!" I was about to take off in a full sprint, but Hermione stopped me again.

"Max is right. You can't let us not do anything!" Harry protested.

"Yes, I can, and you must!" Hermione retorted. "You guys, you're in Hagrid's Hut now. If you just go bursting in, you'll think you've gone mad."

"I'm already mad, Hermione," I told her.

"Awful things happen to wizards who mess with time, Max. We can't be seen," she told us once more. Dumbledore was getting closer to us and by this time, we should've been out of Hagrid's Hut and behind the pumpkins. "We aren't leaving. Why aren't we leaving?" By Hermione's hand, I saw a little rock. The same one that was used when that pot broke.

"Hermione, look by your hand," I told her. She grabbed the rock and looked at it. Then she threw it right at the pot.

"Are you mad?!" Harry said.

She grabbed two more rocks and threw them at our heads. I felt it on the back of my head and started rubbing it.

"That hurt!" Harry informed her.

"Damn, Hermione!" I said.

"Sorry," she replied.

Fudge and Dumbledore were at Hagrid's front door, which meant we were about to come out through the back door. The back door flew open and we were about to run. We ran and hid behind the trees where they wouldn't see us. We looked over and we were all hiding behind the pumpkins like before. Hermione decided to get a closer look at something.

She gave an odd look. "Is that really what my hair looks like from the back?"

"Hermione!" Harry and I whispered loudly to her at the same time.

She turned away quickly, breathing heavily.

"What?" Past Harry asked her.

"I thought I just saw--" Past Hermione was starting to say, but she quickly changed her mind about it, shaking her head. "Never mind."

"Let's go!" Past Ron said.

They left from behind the pumpkins and up the hill. Once they were gone, we stood there for another minute just to be sure.

"They're gone. And by the way, Hermione, yes, that is what your hair looks like from the back. And you need to work on it," I informed her jokingly.

Hermione grinned at me. "Shut up, Max," she replied. Harry looked at me and chuckled at my joke. He always got me.

We walked carefully back to our hiding spot, where Hermione and I hid while Harry left us to go steal Buckbeak. We watched him and saw he was struggling to get Buckbeak to move. I spotted a rack of dead ferrets and pointed them out to Hermione. We grabbed a few of them and held them up for Buckbeak to see.

"Come on, Buckbeak," I said, waving the ferret. "Come get the nice, dead ferret!"

Buckbeak got up and I threw it up in the air for him to catch. Hermione and I took turns feeding the creature, while Harry held onto the chain that was linked to his collar. Everyone was coming out of the house and we stopped in place. Then, once it was safe, we kept on moving out of Hagrid's garden and into the woods.
