This is a story about where Sirius is proved innocent when Harry is about four, and adopts him. The story will differ from J.K. Rowling's version, but will follow it to some extent.

Lila Ranger is an ordinary Canadian high school girl who dies one night after a terrible car accident followed by a heart attack. The next thing she knows she's waking up in an alternate world's Japan apparently in the Death Note universe, one of her favourite anime's. This would be great except...Now the death note's been placed in her hands and now there's no going back!

At the end of 3rd year, Hermione asks Harry for some help with starting an interesting project. If a dark lord's got a 50-year head start on you, maybe what you need is a little more time to even the playing field. AU, Timetravel, HHr, mild Ron bashing. Minimizing new powers, just making good use of existing ones.
