Who: Gideon Prewett and OPEN
What: New arrivals
Where: Top deck
When: Sunday Morning


Gideon wasn’t sure how they had wound up in this position. Death Eaters must have gotten word of the Orders plans. He and his brother were surrounded now, five of them, two down and the remaining three were raggedy. But so where they. They had been hit with spells that Gideon couldn’t even remember, blood was soaking through his shirt, a few ribs on the left side of his body had been broken he could tell, various cuts, bruises and other injuries leaked blood. Fabian wasn’t in much better shape. He grabbed Fabians arm to apparate them both (Fabian likely wouldn’t willingly retreat), but as he did so a blasting hex caught his wand, splintering the wood. Great, now he had no wand.

He heard Fabian say something, and sometimes he wished that Fabian would just keep his mouth shut. It was no sooner than he thought this did he see the green light come out of one of the Death Eaters wand. He tried to yank Fabian away from the spell with the arm he was still grasping but it was too late, his brother went limp and hit the ground. All three wands were now trained on the wandless Gideon and he closed his eyes knowing what would come next.

He stood like that for moments and when nothing happened, he opened his eyes again. He was not in the abandoned alley anymore. He was not surrounded by Death Eaters. His brothers body was no long lying next to him. He glanced around, no one was around, but he was on a …. A boat? It didn’t make any sense, how he had gotten there. Why wasn’t he dead? He fell to his knees overcome by all different emotions, confusion, grief, guilty relief. He noticed that his cuts and injuries had healed, but the tell-tale blood remained dried to his skin and sticky on his shirt. His once broken wand was in his back pocket, intact. He leaned back against the boats railing and let out a loud sob.

Fabian was up on the top deck, enjoying the cold air on his face. It'd been a really strange few weeks, and he was doing a little soul searching. He'd never been in love before. Not that he knew of, anyway, and the feelings he was experiencing for Marietta were confusing to him.

He turned to head back inside, thinking he might like something to eat or drink, when he saw someone very familiar sitting against the ship's railing. As Fabian approached, he found the man was covered in blood. He rushed forward, drawing his wand.

"Are you hurt?" He asked, leaning in to get a better look.

Gideons first instinct was to push the man away, so thats what he did. He pushed the person away from him and scrambled to his feet, drawing his wand. It was only then did he get to look at the other person. His eyes widdened and he felt as if he would throw up.

"Fabian?" He questioned. He knew that couldn't be right, this kid was too young and Fabian was dead. But he looked so much like him. This was a trick. He had to be a Death Eater. "Tell me why I'm here!" He roared.

Fabian sprung to his feet at the push, now thinking maybe this was an enemy. Why would he be so familiar, though? Fabian squinted a little and leaned in. He ignored the roaring.

"...Gideon?" He asked, his eyes going wide. "Gideon?? Is that you??"

He sounded like Fabian. Gideon glared at the man in front of him. Everything about him was so much like Fabian. But he couldn't be Fabian, Unless this was his own personal hell. Gideon took a step forward, pressing his wand against the Fabian look-alikes chest.

"Tell me who you are and why you are doing this or regret it!" He said, ignoring the fact that the person seemed to know him. All part of the act.

Fabian lifted both his hands, one still holding his own wand. "Whoa, take it easy." Though, when he arrived himself, he'd had a similar reaction. "You're on a boat, mate. It's a magic boat. Dumbledore's doing." He said, keeping his voice as calm as he could. "I'm from the year 1966. Fabian Prewett. Born September 16th, 1945."

"You are not my brother!" Gideon shouted. He wanted to punch the person in front of him, how dare he pretend to be Fabian. "Fabian is dead! Where are the Death Eaters that sent me here? Tell me now, I'm loosing patience."

Gideon was furious, his mind was swimming and he was disoriented by the last few hours of his life. All he wanted was to see the people who killed his brother dead.

"Gid, it's me." Fabian said, a little frightened by his brother's anger. "I don't know who sent us all here, but it wasn't Death Eaters. Why would they send us here? James is here, Gid. And Frank. And Dumbledore is here. Why would they bring Dumbledore here?" His brain was racing. What else could he say to convince his brother--his much older brother--that this was on the up and up?

"What year are you from?" He asked, his pulse pounding now.

Gideon felt like he was slipping. None of this made sense, none of it. He had just been surrounded by death eaters, he had just witnessed the murder of his twin brother, they had all been pointing their wands at him. He had been defenseless. He should have died. But instead he was on this boat with this person, this person who was such a convincing version of his brother when they were younger, that it seemed almost impossible that it wasn't him. He must have died. That was the only reasonable option. He was still covered in blood with no injuries, there was no way the death eaters would have let him walk away like that. He stumbled a few steps backwards, taking his wand off of Fabian.

"1980."

Fabian stepped forward, reaching for his brother's arm. He wanted to make sure to keep Gid on his feet, or help him gently to the ground.

"Are you hurt? Gid, you're covered in blood." He said. Wait, 1980? That was the year that they...

"Oh, shit." He said, now putting two and two together. "You just watched me die, didn't you?"

Gideon didn't try to push Fabian away from him. Pushing his wand into his pocket, he rubbed his face.

"I--I'm fine." Gideon managed to say. It was true mostly, despite being covered in blood, all of the injuries he sustained while in battle had healed somehow when he was transported onto the ship. Gideon simply nodded at the next question.

"I tried." He said, blinking furiously, "I tried to get us away, but they broke my wand. And we were injured and outnumbered. We had killed some of them, hurt a few others, but they were winning. And then. Then they killed you and I tried to save you but... I wasn't quick enough. You died, Fabian. You died and I couldn't stop them. I couldn't protect you."

"You don't look fine." Fabian said, frowning as he watched Gideon. Reading about this event and seeing it first hand--through his brother's eyes--were quite different.

"It's okay, mate. I'm here." He said, trying to help calm his brother. "I couldn't save you, either. We did our best. And here we have a second chance." What else was he supposed to say to his brother who just watched him snuff it?

"I should be dead." Gideon said softly. He had been moments from death, yet he had been spared. He had been moved. Something had saved him.

He took a deep breath. It was a relief to see his brother, but he was so much younger. "How... how old are you?"

"I will be." Fabian said, darkly. "Just before you. I read about it. There's a library on board." Fabian? In the library? Strange.

"Twenty-one." Fabian said. "The ship pulls us all from different times."
