~The Present~
As a 36 year-old Harry Potter reviewed his memory of his first day in Diagon Alley he couldn't help but think "If I could somehow go back in time to this moment many things could be changed most importantly; all of the deaths." In the years since he left Hogwarts Harry picked up on wandless magic and found out he had a few other abilities like being a metamorph for example. Harry couldn't help but drift off in his thoughts and didn't notice his younger self leave him behind. Soon Harry felt an excruciating pain and he cried out in agony. He realized his mistake and tried to catch up, but it was too late and he passed out from the pain...
~The Past~
Dumbledore was having a bad day. He had not counted on the Dursley's on them giving Harry his Hogwarts letter. He wanted Hagrid to pick him up but as he had heard from his eavesdropping charms, Harry got his letter early! OK now, now Dumbledore was panicking he was hoping Hagrid would take Harry down Diagon Alley, but he has been wrong before. Now Dumbledore needed to make sure Harry got into Gryffindor, if he didn't his plans would be ruined!

When Harry woke up he realized two things that were wrong:
1)He was lying on the ground.
2) His body felt strange.
OK now things were definitely wrong he thought as he looked at his hands, he noticed they were smaller than before. Quickly, he got up and observed his surroundings. He was in Diagon Alley. OK now things have gone very wrong he thought as he looked in the nearest shop's window and noticed he was in his eleven year old body.
"Excuse me sir, but what's the date?" he asked a person exiting the store.
"Wednesday." he replied.
"Sorry, but that's not what I meant. The whole date please."
"Wednesday, July 31, 1991" The man replied as if it was common knowledge.
"OK, so my suspicions are true" Harry thought as he thanked the man. After Harry had been nearly turned down about getting into his Gringotts Vault(he had to take a blood test because Hagrid forgot to give him his key)Harry went to get Hedwig and go about his day, when he got to Ollivander's though, he felt a burst of power and a wand(his holly and phoenix feather)came soaring into his hand. He caught it and waved; gold, red, blue, and green sparks erupted at once.
"Curious, very curious." came Ollivander's voice.
*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*D T*DT*DT
Later that day after he got all of his stuff and a Nimbus 2000 GT,(a Nimbus model overlooked, it is much faster than the regular Nimbus 2000)Harry got a room at the Leaky Cauldron and took off the trace by using a spell you only learn at seventeen and started to work on spells from the seventh year that he missed(he didn't have a chance to go back to school as he had to track down all the death eaters after Moldypants death)he also worked on potions because he was still terrible at the subject, but got progressively better . when it was time for lunch Harry decided to go down and get something to eat. After he was done a family of red-heads came spinning out of the fireplace.
"But Mum," came a very familiar voice "Can't I go see Harry Potter, he is supposed to be in the Alley today!" Harry couldn't help but feel hurt as his future wife looked at him as though he belonged in a zoo.
"No Ginny dear, i'm sure he has already left the Alley."
"Actually," Harry spoke up from in front of them "I'm right here."
Molly looked up, startled, Ginny blushed, Ron looked positively awed, Gred and Forge looked as though Christmas had come early when Harry called them over to talk about a 'business deal.'
"Alright you two where's the map?"
They jumped into defense immediately
"What map?" they asked simultaneously
"The Marauders map of course, I know about it because my dad is Prongs, also, " Harry cast privacy wards wandlessly ", you cannot tell anybody else this, and because I have to tell you this or you'll get suspicious about how I know you two have it, I need you to take the unbreakable vow, I will also take this because I need you to know i'm telling you the truth."
After they all take the vow Harry tells them how he knows about the map and that he is also from the future.
"So, you're telling us that-"
"You're from the future-"
"If so, then tell us-"
"The password to the map." they finished simultaneously again.
Harry just shrugged "I solemnly swear I am up to no good."
They then gasped and began worshiping him like a god.
"We are not worthy O' son of Prongs, to be in your presence-"
"We are so very honored-"
"ENOUGH! look i'm already praised too much already, I do not need more." Harry finished, with an amused look on his face.
And with that they gave him the map, and very grudgingly left to go get their school stuff.
DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT *DT*DT*DT*DT
The rest of the time between that day, and the time to go to Hogwarts passed very quickly. But Harry was more than willing to go and see his beloved school again.
The day finally came for Harry to get on platform 9 3/4, everything went the same as last time, except when Harry saw Wormtail, it was all he could do from strangling the traitor. He had decided it was too risky to go and get the rat and turn him in, so he decided to wait until he could get a chance. Everything went the same as last time, except Malfoy was suddenly confunded(by someone who was obviously not Harry)and fell into the lake. When Harry stepped into the Great Hall, he felt another burst of power and heard the Elder Wand singing to him. 'So even after I time Travel it still recognizes me as its owner.' He looked up and saw Dumbledore grasping something inside his robes. The sorting also went the same way as before except for the fact Dumbledore looking nervous and a bit confused. When the hat touched Harry's head when he went up to the stool(ignoring the murmurs)however:
*GASP*
'I hope nobody heard that' Harry thought
'Of course they didn't, Potter so time travel, eh?'
'Yes, but don't tell anybody please especially not Dumbledore'
'Ok, but only on one condition.'
'And what would that be?'
'This time around, i'm going to sort you and your friends somewhere different'
'...Fine'
"RAVENCLAW"
Harry was shocked, he didn't expect to get sorted into this house last time he got nearly got into Slytherin The rest of the sorting went the same except when Hermione got into Ravenclaw and Ron Gryffindor.
Tonks, Nymphadora
Harry's head shot up so fast it was surprising he didn't get whiplash.
'Ok so maybe this timeline isn't so similar' He thought
"RAVENCLAW"
Harry motioned for her to sit across from him and Hermione.
"Hi, I'm Harry Potter." he held his hand out.
"Nymphadora Tonks" came her reply
"But just call me Tonks, I...dislike my first name."
"Alright, Tonks I guess I should introduce you to the brightest witch I've met," Hermione blushed "Hermione Granger."
"Wotcher."
The rest of the meal was held by Harry and Tonks taking requests from Hermione to change into the animal or color that she wanted(Harry ignoring Tonks' surprise at him being a metamorph.)
The meal was great and at the end everybody was tired, Harry couldn't wait to go to sleep; he had a long week ahead of him.
