“Teddy, you know that this will change the entire future right?” Victoire’s words rang out in Teddy’s head. “You shouldn’t do this! Or if you do, at least take me!” He snuck into the Ministry in the dead of night by using his position as an Auror-In-Training and Harry Potter’s godson and grabbed a time turner, a new model that let you go farther back in time. He also grabbed another new magical device that let you return to your previous time. Both were untested, and both were very dangerous.
Teddy took a deep breath before he looked inside his backpack, placing the two magical devices down on the floor carefully. He pulled out a book that looked worn out, the brown leather outside scratched and flimsy. The pages crinkled as he flipped to the exact page where the entries ended.
He re-read the page again, checking the date that was written in the uppermost right corner. March 22nd, 1970. Teddy had gotten ahold of some of Remus’, and his, family in order to find out the exact day anything strange happened. What he learned that was the most important was from his 2nd cousin. Remus stopped writing in a Journal on March 22nd in the year of 1970. He had always written, but then he had apparently losthis drive to do anything.
Teddy took a shuddering breath. “Ok, c’mon Ted. You can do this,” he calmed himself down as he swung his backpack back onto his back. He picked up the two magical devices, and then wore them like necklaces. He tucked them into his shirt before he carefully made his way out of the ministry.
On his way out he ran into Harry.
“Teddy, what are you doing here?” Harry asked as he pushed his glasses up onto his nose. His black hair had noticeable speckles of grey in it. To top off his aging form Harry looked exhausted from working non-stop on an Auror case.
“Uh, I was just grabbing some things,” Teddy supplied vaguely before he walked past Harry. “Sorry Uncle Harry, I’m in a hurry.” Teddy smiled warmly at Harry who waved as he yawned. Teddy lightly jogged out of the ministry.
Once he was out of the ministry he apparated over to Hogsmeade, walking up to Hogwarts as fast as he could. He wanted to go back in time in the forbidden forest, where he wouldn’t be seen by anyone, but had a very high chance of being attacked by something as soon as he warped back in time.
He started to run into the forest to get to a certain depth inside. He wasn’t sure how much it would have changed over the years but he was sure it couldn’t be too much. He ran into it, a feeling of fear creeping into his spine as his lost sight of the entrance and a maze of trees was all he could see. He shivered in the cold February air, his breath ghosted in front of him as he ran.
Once he felt he was sufficiently hidden he pulled the time turner out. He took a deep breath before he turned it enough times to go back to the year of 1970. He closed his eyes and felt the anticipation of going back in time flow through him. He felt giddy and nervous, almost to the point where he felt he could puke. When he opened his eyes, he couldn’t tell if the time turner had worked, confusion replacing the nerves that had empowered him.
“Huh?” Teddy whispered to himself as he looked at the time turner. He poked it with his other hand before he heard a growl. Quickly tucking it inside his shirt he looked around for the place where the growl was being emitted from. He heard it again but louder this time. He turned around and there was a huge wolf right in front of him.
The wolf growled before Teddy turned tail and ran to his left as fast as he could. He ran around trees, feeling the cold winter air blow into his face. He heard it begin to run behind him. The wind snapped as its tail moved around. Each snap of the wolf’s jaw sounded louder and louder, as if a thunderstorm were approaching the area Teddy was in. He stumbled over a branch, falling down and skidding across the ground. Teddy rolled over right as it pounced. It barely missed Teddy who got up and ran once more. He began to pick up a sweat as he ran for his life, or his humanity.
The wolf bounded past him, causing Teddy to bump into it. He fell to the ground and began to back up, bumping into a tree. The wolf growled into his face and Teddy whimpered in fear. The wolf lunged, pinning Teddy to the tree. His breath ghosted into Teddy’s face and the scent of animal blood assaulted Teddy’s nose. Teddy’s adrenaline kicked in and a primal instinct drove him to bring up his legs and push the wolf off of him. The monster was pushed back because it wasn’t expecting resistance. It whimpered for a second before he growled again. Teddy pushed himself off the tree and ran passed the wolf.
Suddenly Teddy was pushed down by the wolf before he could get any farther. His back was towards the wolf meaning he was pinned and had no way of moving. His bag was ripped off and he felt drool drip down onto his neck. He shivered and felt fear grip him like it never had before.
Time seemed to slow down as Teddy’s life flashed before his eyes. His hair shifted through many colors as he lost control over his metamorphmagus abilities. The wolf bit down at his shoulder and Teddy felt pain burn throughout his entire body. He screamed before the wolf bit him again causing him to pass out in pain.
