AN: I'm bored, I can't write at the moment, let's see what happens!
Harry Potter sat on the Hogwarts express quietly, looking at something in his hands underneath a cloak, crimson lights shining from something underneath it.
"Excuse me, have you seen a toad? Neville's lost one." A girl with bushy brown hair asked as she burst into the compartment without knocking.
Harry shook his head silently, the motion causing the cloak to slip from his body for a moment, before he sorted it out.
"Oh, thanks anyway." She said, leaving quickly.
As soon as she did Harry gave a sigh under the cloak, the glow vanishing as he stopped slumping in his seat… And saying something confusing… "This isn't helping, stupid comedian… He should be glad he's only able to give help mentally, or I'd show him the results of those genocide runs that… Thing, put me through… Why do I have to be a guy anyway? I was a girl, at least physically, and non-binary… But noooooooo, stupid relatives won't let me be anything that's not 'normal'! Tch, like they'd know…" He, no, They, gave an annoyed growl as they fell into a puddle of darkness, not pool, puddle. It helps to deal with bad memories, just splash around in them for a bit.
Hours later
Harry stepped into the great hall, shrugging off the cloak and putting it into a pocket somewhere with a little difficulty. Their appearance was a little different to what people would assume Harry Potter would look like, instead of emerald green eyes they had crimson red eyes with splatters of emerald green around in random spots. On their cheeks were two rosy circles that seemed to be a permanent blush. Instead of Hogwarts robes they were wearing a green sweater with a yellow stripe going all across the sweater and arms. They popped a piece of dark chocolate into their mouth while they observed the area. "You better be right comedian…" They said with a whisper, barely audible.
"Relax kid, I know what I'm doing, kinda… Didn't expect the magic but it'll help, maybe…" A deep but fun voice said in their head, only heard by the Boy-who-lived-and-was-actually-a-non-binary-girl-apparently.
They sighed as the students were sorted.
"Potter, Harry!" The old lady called out, but Harry didn't move at all, since, for them, that wasn't their name.
"Potter Harry? Has anyone seen potter?" She called out confused, with Harry finally deciding to oblige her, and, after popping another square of chocolate into their mouth, they walked forwards towards the stool.
"By the way, I'm not Harry Potter, my name's Chara, Chara Dreemurr." They told the old lady before the hat went over their head.
Chara's mindscape…
The hat appeared inside of a black void, confused, apparently the child possessed a mindscape… But no mindscape was perfect, there was always a weak point… You just had to find it. Luckily, the hat was built by the founders, and made to find any weak… Spot… It's fabric brow furrowed in confusion…
"Odd… Where is it?" It asked in confusion.
"Sup." The hat twisted 'round to find a figure in the shadows.
"So that's why… This is two mindscapes in one… So the weak spot of one mindscape is protected by the other mindscape…" The hat realised.
"Yeah, so… Just put the kid in ah… Let's go for Gryffindor, K?" The figure said.
Real world
The hat shouted, after a few minutes to Chara's annoyance, "GRYFFINDOR!" Leading to the entire school clapping as they made their way to the red table.
"Would you please be quiet!?" They shouted over everyone else's cheering and shouts, covering their ears in pain. Everyone promptly shut up. "T-That's better… I have sensitive hearing…" They whispered as they tried to adjust.
"So… What's with the name mate?" A ginger asked as he ate.
"First off, we're not friends, second, don't call me mate, and finally, there's nothing wrong with my name." Chara said as they popped another square into their mouth.
"Why not? You're the boy-who-lived! Harry Potter! Not Charkey Dreamguner or whatever you said!" He said, making Chara scowl at him, popping yet another square into their mouth.
The boy eyed the chocolate bar as Chara put a new packet in front of them, so that they could grab a new square in a moment.
"My name… Is Chara, Dreemurr… How many times am I going to have to say that before it gets drummed into your pathetic skull?" They growled at him.
"Umm… Why do you have red eyes? Aren't they meant to be green?" The bushy haired girl from earlier asked confused.
"They've always been red, but there is some green splotches here and there, it's normal for me." They said, relieved that not everyone was so rude. They reached for the packet and instead found hard wood…
The ginger had swiped the chocolate bar and eaten it all while they were distracted.
"Where… Is my… Chocolate…" They growled out in pure rage.
"What? We're mates! You should share with your mates!" The boy argued, his mouth covered in chocolate. "This stuff sucks!" He said as an afterthought, making Chara start to shake in even purer rage.
Their eyes turned pure red, the green getting covered up by the red as a crimson glowing knife appeared In their hands, which then went into the ginger idiot's shoulder, as the enraged saviour twisted it around before pulling it out and making it vanish.
"Never… Ever… Take. My. CHOCOLATE!" They roared at the idiot before pulling out another packet and popping a square in their mouth like nothing had happened.
"Jeez kid, I thought that you were the one that was forced to watch" The voice said sarcastically.
'You know that it corrupted me… Besides, it's easier, IT was right about that…' They said mentally to the voice.
"Yeah, whatever."
"What the bloody hell mate!?" The ginger shouted in pain.
"We… Are not… Friends. We never have been, and never will be… Oh! That reminds me!" Chara's mood instantly changed as they snapped their fingers heading to the old lady, who they knew was called McGonagall or something like that. "We need to talk about something after the feast, it's really important." They told her, getting a calm nod before they walked off, popping a square of chocolate into their mouth and going to explore the castle for somewhere to relax…
