Hello guys ! This is my first of many fanfics (hopefully). There are a few points, however that you need to know about this story.

First of all, there will be no Slash. This might change in the future. (Give me your input).

Next, this story is a time travel fic but it will not be a Perfect Harry one. There will be a lot of plot twists, and turns so be ready for the ride.

Parseltounge, is in *text* as I don't like entering gibberish that no one understands.

Normal speak will be in "text"

Thoughts will be in 'text'.

Please do not confuse the three.

Another thing to note is that the characters might be different than you normally perceive them.

Without further ado let's start!

Voldemort crumpled to ash as Harry defeated him, but there was no celebration. Countless people had died, this day would not be celebrated, rather it would be feared.

It was ten years later from that day. The Wizarding World had greatly changed, for better or worse. Harry woke up from his sleep, and got ready for another day of his regretful life. He sighed heavily and walked out of his door. He saw an old man walking towards him, the man was odd and mysterious. Harry approached with caution as his unfortunate battle experience made him ready.

The man had eyes that had no light in them as if he didn't have a soul, "Do I know you?" The old man stared into Harry's green orbs. "Know me? No, Mr Potter but I know you, the boy who lived the savior of our world. That is what many call you, yet with so much fame and money you do not seem happy. Why?"

Harry looked at the sky as he replied, "I am famous for something I didn't even do, I lost many great friends and family, some died either to Death Eaters or some died simply because I was not strong enough to protect myself, yet no one remembers them. They only remember the Boy Who Lived. If only there was a way to go back in time, things would be done very differently. Sadly, there is no su-"

"Actually Mr Potter, there is a way, you might not like it but it will do the job. Time travel is very dangerous, it is very likely that you will go to a different dimension. I do not know, I have grown far too old, the journey would kill me. All you need to do is stab yourself with this knife directly in the heart." He stated as he handed him a knife that looked very expensive, one of those knives used in rituals.

Harry simply stood, shocked before he muttered, "I d-dont have anything to l-live for anymore, maybe you're lying to me, but I don't care." Without giving himself a moment to change his mind he held the dagger and closed his eyes. "Here goes" he whispered.

The world was blurring around him as he blinked until he could not see anymore he saw black for a second until everything stopped, he felt a horrible pain by which every drop of Magic was sucked out of him. And the next thing he knew, he was being sucked into a void where he went unconscious.

Harry woke up to the loud banging on his cupboard door, Aunt Petunia yelled, "Get up Boy! Don't make me come there!" He replied out of habit, "Yes Aunt Pet-" 'Wait, WHAT!' The gears starting moving in his head and excitement rushed to his body.

He decided to act normal right now since he didn't want to make his "family" angry, he might be an adult mentally, but physically he was still a kid.

He walked out the door and rushed to make breakfast for the whole family, he fried the eggs and bacon and put them into three plates. He managed to save a piece of bacon or two and shoved it down his pocket as he served the food and ran back to his cupboard. He sighed as he munched on the crispy piece of meat.

He knew he needed a wand, but the time to get one was not here yet. With a sudden thought he spoke in parseltounge, *Hello?* He gasped as he realized he was still a horcrux.

He lay on his bed.. if you could call it a bed anyways. Sleep quickly caught him and for once he actually slept in peace without having to worry about his war. The nightmares did not leave.

Harry held his wand tight in his hand and fought Voldemort fiercely. Harry ended up winning against him in the duel. He had perished Voldemort. But there was no cheering heard, there was no one around to be happy.

Harry dropped to his knees, there was no one to catch him. His head hit the cold ground streaked with blood of friend and foe alike, the world around him blurred.

Harry woke with sweat beading off his face, wiping it off with his sleeve, he got out of his cupboard and went to the bathroom to take a shower, He would try at least. He turned the hot tap on and stepped inside. Efficiently washing his hair, he turned the tap off and wiped off the water with a towel. He tried to tame his wild hair, to no avail.

He quickly prepared his breakfast and that of his 'family'. 'I should get out of here before they wake up..' He slowly tip toed towards his uncles room and opened the door, hoping it would not creak. Knowing how perfect and normal his uncle was, the door prodyced no noise. Harry stepped closer, minding the floor for any obstacles. Harry spotted his uncles wallet and slowly pulled a few pounds out of it, slowly creeping out of his uncles house, Harry stopped a cab and sat inside telling the driver the directions. The leaky cauldron was where Harry was going to. He told the driver to pull up near a weird building that seemed normal for Muggles.

Taking a deep breath, Harry walked in with a hood covering his face. Swiftly he pressed the brick and walked into Diagon Ally. It shocked him, the Wizarding World not in chaos. He walked into Gringots and spoke to the first Goblin he saw. Harry asked respectfully, "Hello, I am Harry Potter, I wish to see my vault." as he lowered his hood. The Goblin looked shocked briefly until he snarled, "Harry Potter hasn't been seen in years, Prove it!" He lead Harry to a chamber where his blood was tested, he was then lead to his vault(s). Harry put around 200,000 galleons into his pouch, charmed obviously. Putting his hood back up, Harry left Gringots.

Harry had gotten most of his school supplies, He was just entering the pet shop, He saw Hedwig! Harry ran up to her and bought her in an instant. The shop-keeper gave her to him after he paid until he heard a noise, familiar...*Stupid Humansss* Harry turned around and walked over to the mysterious looking snake, *What are you?*

A magical snake, obviously.. wait you can sspeak my tongue! * Noticing the attention he was getting, Harry purchased the expensive snake. The snake seemed to be a hatchling, around the size of Harrys palm.

Not worried about the venom, Harry let the snake curl around his wrist. 'Now, What should I call you' Harry thought. Walking aimlessly around in the Alley, a certain Ice Cream shop caught his eye, Harry ran towards it and bought himself a chocolate ice cream. Sitting on one of the empty chairs, Harry looked around at the familiar faces, He saw a bunch of red.. The Weasleys!

Harry knew they could not afford food like this as they had financial issues, Knowing their stubborn pride, they would not accept any money. Sighing, Harry finished his ice cream and walked a bit more, looking at his watch, He saw it was around 10 AM. He saw a trunk shop, The shopkeeper greeted him, Harry nodded back as he looked around at the various trunks. They came in different shapes sizes and colors. Harry asked him, "Do you customize these by any chance?" Seeing his nod, Harry ordered a new trunk made of iron wood trees, decorated with the finest stones and embroided with the finest silk. He asked for there to be a endless charm, a lightweight charm and a notice-me-not charm. He also got it charmed to hold a secret password. Paying an amount that made Harry raise his eyes brows, Harry left with a lighter pocket. He charmed the trunk into his pocket and left to Muggle London.
