Chapter one
A 25 year old Harry Potter sat on a boulder in the bitter winds of December in what are the remains of Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry, mourning the deaths of his friends and the people he considered family. Hogwarts had fallen five years ago along with his two best friends and his wife Ginny, they had married just after Ginny graduated from Hogwarts because of the war Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione decided to have a joint wedding, they had died defending the lives of the students.
After that day Harry had done anything and everything he could to get rid of voldemort once and for all, finally succeeding using an ancient parseltongue spell to destroy his soul, that was 2 weeks ago and now he didn't know what to do, he had know one left, all the Weasley's had died fighting in the war, wormtail had killed Remus using his silver hand. Dumbledore had fallen a year before Hogwarts fell, after that Harry had taken charge of the order. When Harry turned seventeen he had learnt of his heritage, learning that you're the heir to Godric Gryffindor and Merlin is a very big shock to the system but after intense training with the portraits of his ancestors he found he could do wandless magic, had control over the elements fire and lightening, his animagus forms were a black wolf and a white phoenix, he had learnt the dark arts after being told by Merlin and Godric that there are no good and evils in magic, it's the intent that matters and due to the death eaters always using the dark arts he had decided to fight fire with fire.
"Why do I have to be alone?" he asked looking up at the sky wishing there was more he could've done for everybody, the wind started to speed up covering his face with his hair, when he brushed it out of his eyes he looked up to see three figures standing in front of him two of them males and one female, the males had white trousers and a white t-shirt on, one with black hair and one with blonde, the female had a long white dress on and long blonde hair with violet streaks in it.
"Who are you?" demanded Harry pointing his sword and his right hand outstretched ready to start casting spells
"I am the Lord of fate this is my brother the Lord of time and our sister Lady of destiny." the black haired man who claimed to be fate spoke in a voice that wasn't harsh but commanded attention
"We are here to offer you a choice." continued Destiny
"What choice?" Asked Harry incredulously
"We are here to offer you the choice to save your friends and the people that you consider family." answered fate
"How?" Harry asked in a choked voice as the idea of having the people he loved back came rushing to the front of his mind
"By sending you back to the summer before your third year and from there you can implement the changes that need to be made." answered the Lord of time,
"What's the catch." was the question they received which got a laugh out of the lords and lady
"Yes well there is a 'catch' as you put it," destiny took over "You need to let Voldemort come back."
"WHAT!!!" shouted Harry
"Listen to us, your destiny is to destroy Voldemort you've done it here but if we send you back you will still need to do it but you can't kill him if he's not alive" (AN: to clarify that spell that destroyed his soul it can only be cast on a living being as it uses their own life energy and magic to destroy their soul) "you will keep your powers that you inherited as you could have gotten to them at that age if you had known about them."
"Oh…Ok… send me back." a determined Harry agreed, letting Voldemort come back wasn't an idea he liked but his friends and family back was worth having to bring Voldemort back and then destroy him again.
The three beings nodded and surrounded Harry and began chanting in a language unknown to him, the intensity of the spell made him squeeze his eyes shut and only opened them when silence reined in his ears, when he could see he noticed he was in his room at privet drive, walking over to the mirror, a twelve year old boy was looking back at him as if he remembered correctly that this was the beginning of the holiday which meant that his 13th birthday wasn't for a couple more weeks.
Walking down the stairs and into the kitchen, his relatives were eating breakfast; grabbing something for himself he sat down and turned to his uncle
"I'm leaving and I doubt that I will come back, but before I leave I will change the wards so that they don't need me here to charge them up every year." he said to him in the most civil voice that he could muster in front of his uncle, his uncle was in too much shock of the civility in his nephew to object. Harry just walked into the living room and removed the things off the coffee table, sat cross legged on it and started a chant but when Vernon felt the ripple of magic in the air he snapped out of his shock and turned to his wife and son about to start ranting about ungrateful brats, but when he saw them just staring into the living room, he followed there gaze and his jaw almost literally hit the floor his nephews hair was blowing everywhere and he was floating above the table.
When Harry had finished changing the wards he floated back to the table, when he opened his eyes he saw his relatives looking at him in shock, he just gave them a grin and went upstairs to his room, packing his things into his trunk, shrinking it with a wave of his hand he put it in his pocket then told Hedwig to fly around and meet him at the Leaky cauldron later that night, with that he left privet drive for what he hoped was forever. Walking to a empty street he put a glamour on himself so he wouldn't be recognised then put his wand arm out and with a bang he summoned the knight bus.
"Welcome to the knight b…" Harry didn't let Stan finished he put a hand over his mouth cutting him off then handed him some money.
"Leaky cauldron as soon as possible please." he asked and walked over to one of the beds and sat down, with a bang the bus was on its way.
"What did you say your name was?" asked Stan trying to start a conversation.
"I didn't." came his reply, the ride to the Leaky cauldron was quiet after that
When he arrived he jumped off the bus more then happy to not be on there anymore, he made sure his glamour's were still up, then walked into the pub saying a quick hello to Tom the bartender, he walked straight through to the back, and opened the wall to Diagon alley, he walked straight without stopping all the way to Gringotts walking in he walked to the nearest empty teller, he also noted that it was one that he knew it was the goblin from his first year he waited for him to be noticed by the goblin and when the goblin did notice him he looked a little surprised at the patience of this young wizard as most demand that they do what they want immediately.
"Hey Griphook I'm Harry Potter and I was wondering whether I could see my account manager please?" requested Harry, shocked that a wizard remembered his name he showed Harry through a bunch of corridors to a door with the name Ravkook and 'Potter manager' along with some other names some he recognised like the Blacks and some that he didn't underneath it, knocking politely Griphook waited for entrance then guiding the young man in to the office when he got it.
"Ravkook this is Harry Potter he wished to speak with you." Griphook addressed the goblin sitting behind the desk in the office, looking up and nodding to Griphook to let him know it was fine once Griphook he had left Ravkook addressed Harry.
"You don't look like any Potter that I've known and if rumours are true you're supposed to look like your father." Ravkook said cocking his head to the side; Harry laughed and let his glamour's fall, nodding at the young man he gestured to the chair in front of the desk
"What can I do for you Mr Potter?"
"Well I need to be able to access my family vaults and estates and I read somewhere that if there are no adult family members left then when the next heir reaches the age of 11 they can take control and become the head of the family." he had found this out after his 17th birthday and realized that along with the prophecy Dumbledore had kept that information away from him thinking it was for the best, he respected the man and considered him family but there was some things Harry wished he had done differently.
"Indeed, well as you came to us, we can arrange that for you, there is a law we have to follow, the heirs have to come to us we cannot inform them which is why we at Gringotts didn't inform you about this in case you were wondering." replied Ravkook, Harry just nodded at the information, even though he already knew about the law.
Two hours later all the paperwork was completed and his family ring was back where it belonged on his right index finger.
"Is there anything else I can do for you Lord Potter?" Harry smiled at the goblin
"Please call me Harry, and there is something, I have quite a lot of shopping in both the wizarding and muggle worlds to do and I was wondering whether there is a way for me to access my money without having to keep coming back?"
"Yes we have a method there is a pouch that is linked to your vault and magical signature where you place your hand on it, think of the amount you need and it will appear in the pouch, we also have what muggles call a debit card for shopping in the muggle world altogether it cost you 60 galleons." answered the goblin
"I'll take them; I would also like an inventory list of all vaults in my possession if that's possible."
15 minutes later he left the bank after putting his glamour's back on he had with him a new money pouch, debit card with a pin number and an inventory folder which he shrunk and put in his pocket.
Going to 'Madam Malkins Robes For All Occasions' he brought a range of casual and formal robes, and some Hogwarts robes as well, then heading down a side street he entered a trunk shop,
"What can I do for you young man?" asked the shopkeeper from behind him, but Harry had already started to turn around as he had sensed him walking up to him before he spoke
"I would like a multi compartment trunk one that if need be you can live in."
"I think I have what you are looking for in the back." following the man into a
backroom he was shown to a case that had a blank black wood trunk
"What are the specifications?" asked Harry
"7 compartments 5 walk in compartments first is a living area which has a kitchen, bedroom with bathroom attached and a living room, second is a library, third is a large empty room for you to use as you please which has a large storage room connected, fourth is a potions lab, the fifth is an open outside grassy area with a swimming pool, the other three are normal trunk spaces but are twice the normal size."
"I like it, I'll take it can you change the lid at all?"
"I can change it if you have anything in mind." pulling a drawing out of his pocket which he had drawn on the knight bus using magic to keep it steady, the design was the four corners of the lid having animals on them, on the top left corner is a stag with a string of lilies around his neck, the top right corner is a grim like dog, the bottom left a werewolf and the bottom right corner a wolf all of them with laughter in there eyes in the middle of the lid there is an oval with the words 'Marauders take care of there own' written inside it.
"I can do that just give me half an hour."
"I'll come back how much is it?"
"500 galleons sir." grabbing his pouch he concentrated on the amount then handed the money over "I shall see you in half an hour then sir" the man said going to work.
Harry left that shop and went down the alley to a shop that sold wand holsters and other nick naks after buying himself a dragon hide wand holster that can either go around your wrist or waist, attaching it to his wrist he put his wand inside and headed to buy an ice cream before going back to pick up his trunk, after getting an ice cream he sat down to think. Ok what do I need to do now, hmm well I need to go clothes shopping in muggle London pick up some clothes for my self and Sirius for when I find him, then tomorrow I'll go stay at one of the houses that I own, then find Padfoot then take him to the house the only question is do I tell him the truth or not…who am I kidding I can't do all this on my own I'm gonna need his help, what about Moony I could use his help as well plus he needs to know of Padfoot's innocence, maybe when I've found Sirius I'll invite Remus round and explain to them both at the same time. With a plan now in his mind he went back to collect his trunk, entering the shop the man was just bringing it through from the back,
"Ah your back well what do you think?" he asked, heading over to it Harry saw that it was exactly what he wanted
"Perfect" he grinned at the shopkeeper who had a pleased smile on his face at Harry's statement "I forgot to ask does the trunk have any spells on it?"
"Yes it does it has a shrinking and enlarging charm on it all you have to do is tap it, if its already enlarged it will shrink and if its small it'll enlarge, also it can be keyed into your magical signature so only you can open it all you have to do is put your hand on the lid and speak this incantation" he said handing Harry a piece of parchment, doing as instructed the trunk was now keyed to him only.
"Anything else?"
"Nothing that I can put on but you can add things to it yourself"
"Ok thank you" Harry then took out the things from his pocket put them in one of the normal trunk compartments, tapped the trunk with his wand and then placed that trunk into his pocket "Bye"
Heading out of Diagon alley Harry headed out to muggle London and to the nearest shopping centre after buying a whole new wardrobe which included several pairs of jeans, t-shirts, shirts, vests, cargo trousers, khaki's trainers and boots and the necessities he headed out to buy Sirius some clothes, estimating on his sizes from when he last saw him at Christmas in his fifth year, but residing to the fact he may have to use magic to adjust them he just grabbed pretty much what he got for himself but mostly plain as he didn't really know what he liked he had got some t-shirts with sayings on them for himself, he only got a few of each deciding when Sirius is with him he'll take him shopping for himself. He then headed back to the leaky cauldron, getting a room for the night, he went up got ready for bed and let Hedwig in when she rapped on the window, climbed into the bed thinking on everything that had changed since this morning from sitting in the remains of Hogwarts to now having the chance to save everyone, and with that thought he fell asleep with a content smile on his face and the most restful sleep he has had in 10 years.
