They couldn’t believe it, a time traveler from a very far future was in their room, to say that they had many questions would be an understatement, however, James suddenly decided to take the word.

“I know you have many questions, however, I’ll answer that once we get rid of that thing!” He pointed at the petrified snake,

“Do you really know how to kill it?” Asked Snape with a concerned tone.

“Yes, at the count of three I want you to finish the spell,” Harry answered his former potions professor with a serious tone.

Snape nodded and soon, Harry started to count.

“…Three!” Said the older Harry.

“Finite…” “Avada…”

“…Incantatem.” “…Kedavra.”

The two of them said at the same time. And the moment the Snake suddenly recovered from the petrification, the thing was hit with the killing spell, and to say that the order was shocked would be a very short-sighted conclusion.

They were told to not use the unforgivables, however, the moment they saw the snake being hit by the killing curse, Arthur couldn’t help but feel satisfaction, this fucking thing almost killed him back when he was guarding the prophecy, to see the thing withering and letting out screeches as it ceased to exist brought incredible satisfaction to the red-haired man.

The order was surprised by the next thing as coming out of the snake it was some kind of black smoke with the form of Voldemort, the thing was smiling at them.

“This isn’t over, I’ll be back sooner than you think!” Said the figure before it finally disappeared.

“What was that?” Asked Molly completely shocked at the sight.

“That was one of Voldemort’s soul anchors,” Harry from the future answered before Hermione or his younger self could say something.

“Soul anchors?” Questioned Tonks with complete interest.

“Yes, the reason why he couldn’t be killed was because the idiot divided his soul thus becoming somewhat immortal, but the problem here is that he was too arrogant to just sink them in the ocean or to carry them with himself all the time,” Harry suddenly pointed at the objects he showed previously.

Now the order understood why he brought those things.

“The cup was in Bellatrix Lestrange’s vault, I was so lucky that my time journey landed me at the Greengrass home while the family was under attack,” Now everyone looked at Daphne who smiled at them. “After dealing with the death eaters I took Bellatrix with me to Gringotts, trust me it was better than the plan of my original timeline, Hermione had to use Polyjuice potion and then we did so many questionable things in Gringotts, luckily this time everything went smoothly,” He placed the cup on the table.

Then he grabbed the locket.

“Kreacher used to have this thing but our dear friend Mundungus decided that it was a good idea to steal it and sell it to the worst person ever…Dolores Umbridge,” everyone shuddered at the mention of the name while the older Harry just smirked. “The ones who suffered under her reign at Hogwarts should feel happy, after all, let’s say that she suffered an unfortunate accident that cost her life, after that, it was easy to get the locket,” younger Harry and Hermione were staring at the locket with complete interest.

Ron meanwhile was looking at the future version of his best friend with awe, he couldn’t believe he would become so awesome but this brought him some questions about his own future self.

“So…Future Harry…Do I own the Chudley Cannons in the future?” Asked Ron with an amused tone.

“No, and you will never do that,” Harry sighed.

Ron looked offended, it seemed like his best friend had become arrogant too.

“And that is because dead people cannot own quidditch teams,” Harry said with a cold tone.

“W-what the…? Am I dead?!” The redhead couldn’t believe it.

“Yes…And that’s why I came back, I want to change some things, deaths that could’ve been easily prevented, failed marriages that ended in tragedy,” he couldn’t help but look at Tonks for a brief moment.

“You should’ve come back earlier in time…Around 1981 to be honest,” Snape couldn’t help but say with a serious tone.

Would he have known about a way to save Lily he would’ve jumped at the chance even if it cost him his life.

“I tried, trust me but…I could only land in in this time…You can try to do it though,” Harry told the greasy potions teacher and soon his eyes lit up.

“Wait, are you sure about that Harry? What if Snape comes back before you were even born?” Ron was concerned right now.

“It doesn’t matter really because that would create a new timeline, right now my original timeline continues and it will be like that forever, me coming back has created another timeline which I hope will end in the way I want it,” Harry said with a serious tone.

“I see,” Snape couldn’t help but say with an interested tone.

Future Harry had other motives for Snape to get away, he knows Hermione would probably not be interested in him in this timeline, however, he couldn’t afford for that to happen, he was being selfish, and he wanted her to be with his younger version or anyone else but Snape.

“Still, we have more important matters to take care of,” future Harry said with a serious tone as he pointed at the objects. “Another anchor, a ring was destroyed by Dumbledore, I destroyed a diary in my second year and Harry has already died,” Everyone looked at his younger version with shocked expressions.

“Yes, I was an anchor but the thing is gone, I had to die and I even saw Dumbledore in the afterlife,” the younger Harry said as he caressed the back of his head.

“There’s just one object left and for that, I’m going to need your help…Headmaster,” he looked at Snape. “After all, you’re the only one who can access Hogwarts during the summer,” Snape couldn’t help but give a rare smirk before he nodded.

The sooner they finish this, the sooner he can get back in time.

“You guys can come too,” Harry said to the order and most of them agreed to the proposal.

Five minutes later they were already at Hogwarts, to be more precise, they were on the seventh floor, in front of them was a painting of some trolls dancing. Soon everyone gasped when a door appeared out of nowhere, the future Harry opened it and invited everyone.

“Wow,” a lot of members of the order said as they awed at the room.

To know something like this was hidden in Hogwarts would’ve been amazing when they were students, however, their thoughts were suddenly interrupted when the future Harry emerged from a certain place while he levitated a diadem.

“Professor Snape, did you get the sword?” Asked the future Harry and Snape nodded.

“Yes, the ministry was going to get ahold of it in a few days but here it is,” the potions master handled the older emerald-eyed wizard the sword.

The thing tried to offer the future Harry many temptations, however, he didn’t hesitate and soon, he stabbed the thing with the sword causing a big screeching sound to be heard in the room.

Once again, coming out of the object, a black mist with a figure resembling Voldemort came out of it, however, this time it was just painfully screaming, there were no threats or anything similar, the thing just faded.
