There was an air of awkwardness in the room, there were some things that Harry and Hermione needed to explain further, however, before they could be questioned, someone knocked on the door.

“I’ll attend the door!” Ron said before Harry or Hermione could do it before him.

However, when Ron Weasley opened the door, he got his wand ready to attack the person on the other side, only to be completely overpowered by the man at the door without him even taking out his wand as he used a wandless spell to disarm him.

“Snape!” Ron said loudly not finding another way to save himself from this situation.

Severus Snape, his hated potions teacher, and Dumbledore's murderer, was outside and he clearly came to finish what he started, first, it was Dumbledore and now he was going to kill the whole order, Snape soon got his wand ready and cast a shield as the other members of the order started to launch spell as him.

Of course, none of them were lethal, typical of the order that was the thing that angered Snape the most, they were still with their police to avoid using nonlethal spells.

“Wait, everyone!” Harry surprisingly intervened.

This caused everyone to gasp, Harry was supposed to hate Snape the most, hell, he witnessed him killing Dumbledore and also, they were supposed to hate each other, Snape was interested to see how this was going to play out, to see their savior defending someone they hate was interesting for the potions master.

“Step aside Harry, he killed Dumbledore!” Remus said clearly using Dumbledore’s death as an excuse to finally do what he wanted to do since they were classmates.

“Yes, but that was an act of mercy, Dumbledore asked him to kill him!” To say that Harry’s words shocked everyone would be an understatement.

Snape couldn’t help but smirk, there was no doubt that the future Potter was the one who gave this information to the present one thus confirming that he indeed came from the future.

“What?” Questioned Tonks with a shocked expression.

“You remember Dumbledore last year and how he tried to hide his arm as much as he could? His arm was cursed before the last term started, the thing was going to take his life eventually,” Harry’s words caused everyone to chat with each other.

“But…Why he didn’t tell us anything, we could have tried to help him and—” Molly tried to speak but she was stopped by Snape.

“You couldn’t have done anything anyway, even with the use of my abilities at a hundred percent even after meticulously brewing potions and all the sleepless nights of intensive care, I was only able to slow down the curse, enough for him to put his things in order, there was nothing we could do,” Snape suddenly spoke.

“He’s right, you know?” Now another voice joined them.

However, they were surprised to see that the voice belonged to someone who was coming out of their kitchen, it was a tall muscular wizard with emerald eyes.

“W-who are you?” Questioned Ron with a worried tone.

Soon all their wands were pointed at the stranger, however, he just smirked.

“Look, Voldemort’s there!” The stranger said and soon everyone gasped and looked in the pointed direction.

However, this was the opportunity Harry from the future needed, and with a hand movement he managed to disarm everyone but Harry, Hermione, and Daphne, and now, all their wands were in his power.

“What the…” Tonks couldn’t help but say impressed.

Something awoke in the Auror, something that hadn’t happened in a long time, marrying Remus wasn’t the dream she thought it would be, it took her marrying him to realize that the man she loved wasn’t the best lover in the world, in fact, there was barely any love in their marriage.

So, seeing this older, attractive, strong, and in her imagination dangerous man awoke something she didn’t want to admit because it would mean she was feeling other things for another man, it was arousal.

“Constant vigilance!” the stranger said with a mocking tone.

However, he soon did something that took them by surprise, he gave everyone their wands and the most shocking thing is that he knew which one belonged to each one of them.

“Mrs. Weasley and here we have Ron,” the man said as he handled the past version of his best friend his wand. “Well, now that the shock is gone and now that you’ve seen that I mean no danger there’s a question I'd to ask...Severus, did you get the snake?” Asked the older emerald-eyed older wizard.

Snape was suddenly brought back to reality, he nodded and soon, he took a small rock from one of his pockets and soon, the rock was transfigured back to its original state, everyone gasped, it was Nagini, Voldemort’s snake but the thing was completely petrified.

“Good,” Harry from the future said with a serious tone before he slammed the door and sealed it.

Then the future version of the boy who lived placed a silencing charm to avoid anything from leaking out, Fleur was looking at the scene with attention, this was an interesting man.

She knew she shouldn’t look at that at someone just after Bill broke up with her because he couldn’t stand the fact that he was now scarred for life, Fleur was glad though not because he now had a scar but because it hurt her to know that he was so insecure and shallow to think she wouldn’t want him just because of something as simple as a scar.

“Well, I have some interesting things here,” the older Harry said and then he placed a few items on the table.

There was a locket and a chalice, Hermione, Harry, and Ron gasped.

“Is that the real…?” Ron wondered.

“Yes, it’s the real locket of Salazar Slytherin, not the one Harry retrieved from the cave with Dumbledore the night he died,” the older wizard said with a serious tone.

“Wait a minute, who are you?” Asked Remus with a confused expression.

Harry couldn’t help but smirk.

“What do you guys know about time travel?” James asked with a raised brow.

He wanted to be honest but he also wanted to prepare them for the truth.

“Well, I only know that there are time turners and the department of mysteries is in control of them and who can use them,” Moody answered not sure where this was going.

“Yes, all of that, it’s true,” future Harry said with a calm tone.

“Are you implying that you are a time traveler?” Questioned Tonks with a serious expression.

“Yes…Do you want to guess how further I traveled?” James was having fun right now.

“You can only come back a few hours in the past, otherwise you’d be in trouble with the ministry,” Ron surprisingly said.

Hermione looked at the redhead proudly, it seemed like he listened to what she said when they confessed to him what they did when he was injured during their third year after they discovered Scabbers was an animagus.

“Yes, that would be the case if I used a time turner, however…I used something else to come back,” whispers were suddenly heard. “Who am I? The answer is simple, just look at my eyes,” he pointed at his emerald eyes.

Soon their eyes widened and they started to look at him and the younger Harry.

“You’re—” Remus muttered.

“You’re Harry from the future, a very good future it seems,” Fleur couldn’t help but say with a slight smirk.

To say that the members of the order of the phoenix were shocked would be an understatement.
