Welcome To Blast From The Past! It’s the year 1996 and Harry Potter has just received a vision of his dear Godfather being tortured in the Department of Mysteries. In an instant he, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Ginny Weasley, and Luna Lovegood are on a rescue mission, set to infiltrate the Department and save Sirius Black. In the midst of searching they run into a Slytherin obstruction. It seems that Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, and Pansy Parkinson have followed them to the Ministry in attempts to stop them. As the battle between dark and light commences, the large group stumbles into one of the many rooms in the Department of Mysteries. All of a sudden they are transported back in time - to the year 1976.
