I hope I can be helpful. There was a discussion about time travel
using the time turner recently which may help you clarify what
happened with Buckbeak and how the time turner works. Check out the
posts from Dec. 27 2002 to Jan 01 2003 labeled "Time Travel in PoA"
or "Time Travel" or anything like that.
The basic idea is that there is no "original" story. There is just
one story. As we read the story from Harry's point of view we get
the idea that he and Hermione traveled to the past to change it
(which is what they believe). The truth is that they do not change
it, they justify it. Harry, Sirius, Hermione and Buckbeak never die.
I know it sounds weird at first which is why I strongly recomend you
read the posts I mentioned. At some points you may get confused but
don´t stop reading them, with a little patience you'll grasp the
ideas. If after you´ve read them, there are some things you still
don't understand, I'll be glad to help you.
Cheers...
Sharana
