Story Notes: I would like to say thanks to RoxieRose13. I've never been big on this sort of story, but her fic "Time Management" (specifically a line she had Blaise Zambini say) gave me an idea I haven't been able to shake. So a big thanks to Roxie for the plotbunny!

Also...Warnings/Genres are all JUST IN CASE. I'm not really sure how this one's gonna play out. So yeah...just covering my own ass with this.

~*~*~*~*~*~

A/N:So...here's to trying something COMPLETELY different. Um, I've never done a Time-Travel fic so bear with me as I work out the kinks, okay? Please rate and review; they mean the world to me! I could really use the feedback on this one...okay guys? THANKS! ~ FA

End of 5th Year, Ministry of Magic, Department of Mysteries:

Harry knew he shouldn't. It had been his idea to smash all of the damned things in the first place. But...if he was the only one who had one...the only one who even knew one still existed...what harm could it do? No one had been hurt when he and Hermione had used hers, after all. No one had ever even found out! Plus, they'd saved lives with it.

Besides, he might need it some day to help kill Voldemort. And he knew the rules...he'd be careful, should it ever be necessary. While the others were distracted, Harry slipped the tiny silver Time-Turner into his pocket. No one would ever have to know. And, hopefully, he'd never have to use it.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Harry felt Remus let go of him, his whole body shaking as he stumbled behind a pillar. No...no, Sirius could not be dead! NO! His hands, slicked with sweat, fumbled with the Time-Turner's chain as he tugged it out of his pocket. He slipped the chain over his neck and stared at it, trying to remember the way Hermione's had worked. Three turns of hers had dragged them back three hours in time. This one, however, was smaller. Was it minutes, then, instead of hours? How far back did he need to go?

In a matter of seconds, Harry decided. 5 minutes. That's all he needed. That was just long enough to Disillusion himself and stun Bellatrix before she got out that last spell. And, even if he missed, if he was Disillusioned he could always just dive out there and shove Sirius out of the way. Or push him so he fell forwards instead of backwards through the Veil. 5 minutes would be plenty of time. And no one ever had to know. No one.

He grasped the little knob and spun carefully...one, two, three, four...as he turned it the fifth time, his sweaty fingers slipped. Damn...just under 5 minutes, then...still, it would be enough. It had to be. And if not...well, he would worry about that then. The little hourglass started to spin, faster and faster and faster as Harry's eyes watched it. He started feeling dizzy, so he closed his eyes. He'd need to be stable on his feet when it stopped. He wouldn't have much time.

He felt a funny lurch in his stomach and prayed he wouldn't be sick. He didn't remember feeling nauseous the last time...but then, he'd been worried sick and vaguely nauseated to begin with that night, so who could say?

Then, just as suddenly as he'd felt the lurch, his body seemed to stutter to a halt, though he'd been unaware of moving in the first place. He shuddered, staggering slightly as his feet moved, almost without his permission. As though they'd been moving and his brain had forgotten they'd been doing so, causing him to stutter-step as his brain and body struggled to synchronize. And wasn't that just the oddest thing? He was VERY sure that that hadn't happened the last time! He felt odd. Harry wasn't sure why, exactly...he just did. VERY odd.

Suddenly he felt two large hands close over his shoulders, steadying him as he slowly blinked open his eyes to blinding sunlight. "Alrigh' there, Harry?" He heard the loud, gruff voice ask from behind him. "Things been goin' a bit fast today, haven' they? S'nuff to upset anyone, really. I jus' gonna leave ya here to get your robes an' uniform, alrigh'? I'll be back in a bit..."

Harry stared down at himself, stunned, as Hagrid walked away, leaving him standing before Madam Malkins' Robes For All Occasions. 'Oh Merlin, what have I done?'

Harry's mind raced as he stared down at his too-large grey tee-shirt and the enormous jeans held up by a length of rope he was using as a belt. At his scuffed and falling-apart trainers and mustard-colored socks. At his pale, calloused hands...the right one should have born the words "I must not tell lies." in messy, scrawling handwriting etched by a black quill and an evil woman not long ago, and yet somehow it didn't. He tugged his glasses off, squinting at them...taped. Taped with Muggle masking tape, at that...not even the Spello-Tape he used when he'd been unable to remember the fixing-charm Hermione liked to use on them. He hadn't had masking tape on his glasses since...

"Oh shit..." Harry whispered, grimacing at the soft, high sound his voice made. "It took me back years, not minutes!" Harry looked around frantically, unsure what to do. Especially since he was in his own, 11 year old body. Which was NOT how Hermione's Time-Turner had worked, thank you very much! Could a Time-Turner work in reverse? Could he force himself forwards the same way he'd dragged himself backwards? Now, preferably, before he accidentally changed something important?

He reached up to touch the time turner and panicked. It wasn't there...

Harry took a deep breath. Okay...maybe this Time-Turner worked like the Polyjuice Potion, since he was in his younger body, but with all of his memories. Maybe he just had to wait and it would wear off. Then he'd just pop back into his own time, simple as that.

And if it didn't, he could always explain to Albus what he'd done when he got to Hogwarts. Surely the Headmaster would know what to do to help him. In the meantime, he needed to go get his robes and his uniforms, like he was supposed to. He didn't want to change anything by accident.

He stepped into Madam Malkins' and smiled at her as she bustled him along to the back to be measured, muttering about robes and such. It wasn't until Harry saw the small blonde boy standing with his arms outstretched, being measured, that Harry remembered that this had been his first meeting with Draco Malfoy. Harry repressed the sneer trying to creep across his lips, his eyes narrowing as he thought hard. Maybe...maybe there were little things he could do - since he was here anyway - to make things better in his time. Like not having to watch his back for Malfoy's petty crap all the time.

"Hello." Harry smiled sweetly at the blonde, having made his decision swiftly. "I'm Harry Potter." He held out his hand for Draco to shake. "I've just found out I'm a Wizard and I don't really know anyone except the man who came to tell me. His name's Hagrid and he's the grounds keeper at Hogwarts. Are you going to be going there as well?"

Malfoy's silvery eyes had widened during his little babble, but he recovered quickly. He shook Harry's hand and smiled tentatively at him. "I'm Draco Malfoy. I'll be starting my first year at Hogwarts as well. I know some others from our year, too. My parents are friends with a few other Wizarding families, so I grew up with their children."

"Oh..." Harry sighed, holding his arms out at his sides for the young assistant to measure him, but turning his head to meet Draco's eyes. "I suppose you've got loads of friends, then. And you probably know loads about the Wizarding World, too. I'm sure I'd just annoy you with all my questions..."

"Not at all, Harry." Draco smiled brightly at him, his eyes sparkling with mischief. Harry startled slightly at the sound of his first name on the blonde's lips, which made the assistant look at him funny. He mouthed 'Ticklish' at her and turned back to Draco, eyes wide, as the other boy continued. "I'd be happy to explain all about our world. And one can never have to many friends."

"You'll be my first." Harry replied softly, wondering how this would work out when he met Ron at the train station. Ah well, he'd still be a Gryffindor, which meant Draco and he would never be close, but now maybe he could avoid all the intense animosity with Draco, even if they didn't end up precisely friends. "I'm excited about going away to school. I'm sure I'm going to meet all sorts of people and learn all new things about them and it'll be so nice to have friends."

Draco rolled his eyes slightly, smirking at Harry. "Really, Harry, there are some sorts of people you don't want to go making friends with." His eyes sparkled as he added arrogantly. "I can help you figure out which ones are which, though."

Harry gritted his teeth as the witch told him he was all done. "Thanks." He said softly to her, then turned to Draco. Could he really hope to change the arrogant boy's opinions about the world? Or was Draco Malfoy already a lost cause, so hopelessly entangled in Pureblood Propaganda that Harry couldn't possibly cut him loose and teach him to think for himself? Well, he had to try. Every person swayed to their side was one less person fighting against them. Even a neutral Draco Malfoy was better than him as an enemy.

Choosing his words with care, Harry said. "Well, Draco, it was a pleasure to meet you, really." He noticed Hagrid outside with the dripping ice cream cones Harry had forgotten all about in the years since this day.

"I have to be going. That's Hagrid there...the man who came and saved me; telling me I was a Wizard and that I would be leaving my family's house and coming here, to our world, where I belong. So..." He forced a smile onto his face as Draco looked incredulously between Harry and Hagrid, adding. "So thanks, for offering to be my friend. But I don't need any help deciding who's a good person. I'm pretty good at figuring it out myself, you know. Like Hagrid...he's really great."

With a peek from under his eyelashes, Harry added softly. "And like you. I'm sure we'll be good friends. Right?"

"Um..." Draco looked unsure, his eyes still flicking between Harry's diminutive form and Hagrid's enormous one, but then he seemed to come to a decision and he nodded firmly, his face set. "Of course, Harry. We'll be best friends. I'll see you on the train in a few weeks, okay?"

"Okay. Bye, Draco!" Harry grinned happily; he couldn't believe Draco had given in to what he wanted! Maybe the Slytherin boy wasn't a lost cause after all...at least, not yet. Maybe when he went home, they'd still be amiable. And wouldn't that be interesting to see? Draco Malfoy, chummy with Harry Potter and Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Perhaps this hadn't been such a bad idea after all...

Plus, if he stayed long enough to get to Hogwarts, he could catch Wormtail and have Sirius freed now! Then Sirius would be his guardian and he'd be FREE and he wouldn't die! He could save him, just like he'd intended in the first place! Harry was beaming as he stepped out of the shop, hands full of his purchases, and took a cone from Hagrid, licking at it happily.

He babbled happily about making a friend and then he noticed it. The cage Hagrid was holding. With a snowy white owl sitting inside it. Harry's chest tightened...he'd forgotten all about her, so used to her being his by now, that he hadn't even realized he didn't have her yet. Without thinking Harry hugged Hagrid tightly, heedless of the dripping, sticky-sweet treat melting all over his friend.

"Oh she's wonderful, Hagrid! Thank you so much!" He took the cage carefully, smiling lovingly down at his bird. "I'm going to call her Hedwig." When Hagrid look a bit surprised, Harry remembered that he had come across the name in one of his schoolbooks the first time around. AFTER leaving Diagon Alley for the Dursley's. Oops. He smiled bashfully. "Um...it sounds so pretty, doesn't it? Hedwig?"

"Sure." Hagrid smiled back, still looking a bit confused. "Do ya need anythin' else 'afore we go? Got any questions to ask me 'afore I take ya home?"

Harry remembered how he'd been brimming with questions back then (back now?), but he couldn't remember what he'd asked. And did it really matter? He knew the answers already, after all, and he was planning to change far more than just a few conversations. "Nope. I'm sure I'll think of a dozen or two later, but I'll just ask my new friend while we're on the train."

Hagrid nodded and they headed back to Muggle London, and then on to the Dursleys' house. While Harry didn't relish the idea of spending the next month with his relatives, it was made easier with the knowledge that he'd never have to go back there again. Not this time. He was going to free Sirius first thing when he got to school and that was that.

He was going to have the life he should have had the first time around. He'd make sure not to make the same mistakes twice. After all, how did that saying go? Forewarned is forearmed? Well it certainly would be in this case! He was going to fix EVERYTHING. After all, he was supposed to be the Savior of the Wizarding World, right? Well, maybe this was how he'd been meant to do it all along! Confident in his choice, sure this was the right thing to be doing, Harry fell into blissful dreams that night of the life he'd soon be living. His fairytale just might have it's Happily Ever After, after all...

~*~*~*~*~*~

A/N: Okay...so...yeah. There's your premise. Um...what do you think? I'm trying to figure out how long to make Harry stay in the past...and how to send him forward again. I already know it'll be after he's at Hogwarts, since there are a few more things that I want Harry to change before his return. Then he'll get to see all the repercussions of his actions. Won't this be FUN? Please rate and review! They make me SOOO happy and I'd really like everyone's opinions on this one...Also, I alert to updates, so if you leave your e-mail I'll add you to the list! Happy reading! ~ FA
