I guess that for a while now I've wanted to start one of those collections of stories I've started but never really had the inspiration to go anywhere with. "The Ones That Got Away" is that collection. Enjoy the compilation of weirdness that spilled from my twisted, twisted mind. (Most will be longer than this first one.)
If anyone wants to adopt these ideas, you are welcome to. All I ask is that you credit me for the prompt and drop me a PM when you post (because I'll want to read it too!). Other than that, this is all your playground.
And I don't own anything. Obviously.
A while ago a friend of mine and I were discussing how we kind of wanted to write a story like this. Clearly, neither of us have ever done so. I've never been able to get past the first bit, myself. But I would really, really love to see someone else run with the idea.
Avada Kedavra!

When I open my eyes, the first thing I notice is the house I had just been standing in is utterly destroyed, and a small part of me notes that the crib I had been leaning over has grown massively in size. But there isn't time to think about that. Instead, I have to focus on getting out of here as quickly as possible.
I turn to run and nearly stumble. I'm on all fours, but I can't seem to balance correctly on just two. That's okay, though, I seem to be able to move quite rapidly even on four legs.
I sprint down the stairs, through the ruins of the house, and out the door before I can really register what's happening. It isn't until I'm several blocks away that I finally take note of what exactly has occurred.
I am a cat.
A black cat.
A black fuzzy cat.
...This may prove to be a slight hiccup in my plans to take over the wizarding world.
Basically Voldemort makes an accidental horcrux from the Potter's cat (which they apparently had, but it just sort of disappeared after Halloween). Bonus points for it being completely canon as Voldecat does his level best to rule the world… or at least force muggles to feed him and give him belly rubs.
Until next time!
