Elijah took a huge breath and opened his eyes as his desiccated body began to un dessicate. He had been staked to the wall by the two vampires who had come to save Elena Gilbert a few hours earlier which was a miscalculation on his part. He pulled out the stake and dropped it to the ground and took a few steps forward before stopping to look down on the vampire he had beheaded earlier for his betrayal. Trevor.

"I trusted you and you betrayed me.."

He was about leave the old rotting mansion only to pause when he heard the sound of a large tear as though a wall was being torn in two. When he turned around he took a step back in shock when he saw a large tear through space and time emitting a glowing light from within. All of a sudden it glowed brighter lighting up the entire mansion in the dead of the nights and ejected four people dressed in robes who appeared to be in their early forties and then dimmed again.

Before he could fully comprehend this he felt an intense pain overwhelm him and dropped to the ground eyes closed screaming. In all his life he never experienced this and he found himself wishing for death for the very first time.

"Avada-kedavra!"

The pain stopped when the female voice shouted, and he felt the ground tremble when someone fell. He suddenly head rushing sounds and collision sparks and when he opened his eyes, he saw a female standing in front of him in a protective stance waving what appeared to be a stick with such speed deflecting lights emitting from the two men's sticks further away from her.

Elijah suddenly rose to help the said female once he realised that she was protecting him only to be hit with a purple jet and thrown across the room and impacted a wall before dropping the ground. His strength was weakened and so was his speed.

"Stay where you are!" the female shouted as she deflected another light from one opponent making him drop his stick and waved her stick in slashing movement towards the other. A deep cut as though slashed by a sword appeared on the man and he dropped to the ground blood gushing out.

"I never thought i would see the day. Head Auror Potter using dark magic." The male who had dropped his wand sneered.

"It's over Nott. i'm sending you to Azkaban."

"I'm afraid you can't do that Katelyn, the time travel orb was designed to transport three individuals to the past only. When you decided to hitchhike uninvited it threw us off course and landed here."

Katelyn's wand began to shake at this news. She couldn't believe it.

"Why are you so desperate to go to the past. Who do you want to save so badly?" she asked after she got a hold of herself.

"I want to save my family…"

"By risking creating a paradox!" she shouted.

"I know the risks Potter! I spent years working on the orb, calculating the risks. It works. No paradox will be created. My body will will simply be absorbed by my younger self. Be rest assured that the precious timeline won't be destroyed at all."

Elijah who had been hearing this stood up shakily amazed and confused at the same time.

"Swear to me that you speak the truth, make an unbreakable oath."

Nott nodded before picking up his wand and swore with his life and magic that he told the truth. His wand sparked once and Katelyn took his word once he saw that he didn't drop dead.

"You should also know that only one person can go now and the other would be stuck in this dimension forever." He said.

Before she could reply, Nott tossed a small dark glass orb for her to catch

"I think it should be you. You are the chosen one, you can beat the Dark Lord again and prevent another war. You can save your loved ones, Ron, Hermione and Black."

Katelyn scowled when she had the name of the person she had grown to detest. Ron Weasley. The boy who only craved her fame and money. Even after the war and gotten married he never changed. When the other remaining death eaters who hadn't been captured decided to avenge their Lord, she discovered love potion which was meant for her to ingest with his magical signature all over it. In a rage, she went to confront him only to discover his dead body along with Hermione's. After many investigations she found out that he had conspired with Molly Weasley but decided not to arrest her for Arthur Weasley's sake.

"Ron is not my friend. Thanks for the offer Nott but i can't accept that."

She tossed the orb back to him.

"You go and please make sure i'm sorted into Slytherin House with Hermione this time. I don't want Dumbledore's leash on me." She said with a sad expression. She wouldn't see her world again and she couldn't condemn Nott to this world either.

"You have my word Potter." Nott moved towards the the glowing rip and stopped to look at her tear filled eyes.

"Once i am gone you won't be able to perform magic with that wand in this realm. You will only be able to cast your spells wandlessly."

"I know Nott. i'm channeling from my real realm through the tear."

"I'm sorry that you are missing out on this opportunity. Fare well."

Nott raised the orb towards the rip and was pulled through it by an unseen force and vanished a second later the rip closed and no trace of it was left.

"Amazing."

She turned to face the man in a suite who had whispered only to freeze when she saw her aged hands began to shrink. She also felt her entire body changing and then stop after a few minutes.

The man in the suit just looked shocked beyond belief and muttered two words.

"Another Doppelganger."
