Like it all Never Happened
Chapter 1
It was like any other normal, dreadfully boring day at the Dursley house. The Dursleys woke up, Harry made breakfast, Dudley went to school, Uncle Vernon went to work, Harry did the chores, Vernon came home, Harry was beaten for imaginary offenses, blah blah blah.
'Just a normal day.' Harry thought sullenly as he laid on his stomach on the small cot in his cupboard, as to not aggravate the injuries on his back. Harry's expression remained blank, though he internally grimaced, as he shifted to his side. It felt like his skin was entirely too tight. Every time he moved it felt like his skin was going to rip. Long after midnight when his relatives were all asleep he sank deep into the security of his mind. He entered his mental library and started putting all of the day's memories into their respective books.
'Done.' he thought in satisfaction as he put away the last memory. He headed deeper into his mind, heading towards his magical core. Of course he had no concrete evidence that it was magic, but he ad no other explanation for the, frankly, crazy things that had been happening to him recently, like changing his cousin's hair red when Dudley had pushed him down the stairs or when he had set the snake at the zoo free.
'I'm turning 11 tomorrow.' he contemplated as he sat by his core, basking in the warm green glow. He stared into his core which was a deep emerald green with sapphire blue and black swirls moving throughout the sphere.
'Not really a sphere,' he thought 'more like a pool, a cylindrical pool.' he mused as he exited his mind before drifting off into a light sleep.

Harry woke up the next morning to his Aunt pounding on his door
"Get up and make breakfast, Freak, before Vernon wakes up." she yelled in her horrible grating voice. Harry sat up and blanked his annoyed expression, absently noting that his wounds were, once again, miraculously healed, before exiting his cupboard.
"Yes Aunt Petunia." He said in a monotone as he began to make the traditional Dursley breakfast.
'A dozen eggs, a sheet of bacon, 24 muffins, 2 pounds of home fries...' he mentally made a list as he cooked. He heard Vernon and Dudley come lumbering down the stairs, sounding like a herd of elephants as they did so. "Usssselessss oafsssss" he hissed under his breath as he put the food on the table and went to stand in the corner.
"You better have made everything to perfection, Freak." Vernon hissed as he sat down at the table and started to eat. Harry did not respond, having been trained to never speak back to his superiors. He watched as the leftover food, which was only a couple potatoes and a strip of bacon, was dropped into the garbage.
"And to make sure." Vernon sneered as he poured dish soap over the food in the trash. Harry watched him blankly having seen this multiple times before.
'It's such a waste.' Harry thought
"Go get the mail, Freak." Vernon snarled. Harry got up and walked over to the door, grabbing the mail and quickly shifting through it.
'A letter for me?' he thought astonished seeing the heavy thick parchment-like envelope in the pile. He folded the letter up and stuck it in his pocket. He watched solemnly as as Dudley left for school, Vernon went to work, and Petunia went to her woman's society meeting. He inwardly grimaced as he started to clean up the breakfast dishes before completing his chores as quickly as possible. He looked at the time and smiled slightly, well, smirked would be a more accurate description.
'Time to go see Iz and Ni.' He thought slipping out of the house and starting to walk. He walked into a poorer section of Surrey and quickly slipped into the house, well shack, that his only friends lived in.
"Harry!" Niamh, or Ni as she was called by everyone, squealed as she pounced on Harry, wrapping him in a bear hug.
"Hello Harry." Izzy, AKA Iz, said in amusement as she watched Harry getting attacked by her twin sister.
"Hello my dearest sisters." Harry said chuckling slightly as he disentangled Niamh from looked them over, checking for any injuries. He smiled softly at the pale-skinned, black haired young women with blue eyes that he was glad to call his partners in crime, his best friends, and his sisters since they were young.
"How are my favorite girls today?" he asked sitting down
Niamh and Izzy suddenly looked slightly nervous. They watched as Harry sat down on the threadbare couch which served as a bed when they had acquaintances over. They sat down on either side of him and started talking in unison, something they only did when nervous or angry.
"Well, you see Harry," They said slowly pulling out letters very similar to the one that he himself had received."We got these in the mail today." Izzy and Niamh stated pulling the letters out of the envelopes. Harry stared at the letters they were holding in slight surprise, slowly pulling out his letter.
"I have one too, but I didn't open it." He said staring at the letter before asking the girls
"What does it say?" Izzy and Niamh looked at his letter and then back to their respective letters before looked at each other solemnly. Izzy opened up her letter and read it out loud to them.

"What do you think it means Harry?" Niamh asked with a frightened look in her eyes. Harry contemplated for a moment.
"I don't know." He admitted looking over at Niamh. He glanced at Izzy who, unlike her sister, had masks and was, as such, showing no emotions.
"Any idea's on what this means, Iz?" he asked watching her solemnly
"I don't know what it means," she said slowly "I didn't even know that was our last name." she commented before continuing. "I have no clue what it means, but I think we should go along with it." she said firmly
Harry sighed but agreed "I think that is probably a good idea." he said "So what is the plan, girls?" he asked leaning forwards.
Niamh spoke up "In the letters ,on the second page, it mentions a shopping center in London called Diagon Alley." she said "There are instructions on how to get there right here." she commented handing Harry the sheet of paper.
"It's decided then." Izzy said abruptly as Harry read the page "We pack up at our respective hellholes tonight and tomorrow we leave for London." she said standing up and taking the sheet of paper from Harry. "It's time for you to go back to the Dursleys." she said looking at the old clock.
Harry stood after clearing his mind "Ill see you two tomorrow then." he said before taking off at a run towards the Dursley home. Izzy pulled Niamh up off the couch and pushed her towards their bedroom.
"Go start packing." she said moving towards the kitchen "I'll pack up in here." she sighed. Niamh stood in the doorway for a moment before asking
"Do you think this is going to improve or worsen our lives?" she asked starting to turn away. Izzy looked up at her sadly
"I really don't know." she said morosely as she watched her sister, her better half, walk away and start packing their bags, to take the train towards uncertainty.
