ingenious J.K Rowling ownes it.
Summary:Read the story. its good for you.
Ch. 1: Prologue
Albus Dumbledore sighed and sat back in his chair. He looked wearily around his circular office, eyes lingering on
a small statue of Godric Gryffindor. He stood resolutely, strode across the room, and stopped in front of a strange silver
contraption. It had the base of a muggle lamp topped with a large sphere. Six thick wires that ended in multicolored balls
protruded from the sphere. He muttered "corncob" and the sphere started rotating. A gap appeared in the wall in front of him
as the wires spun faster and faster. The hole opened into a large dusty library. Dumbledore stepped into the room and scanned
the shelves. His eyes rested on a thick black book with silver writing. The title read "Grindelwald: The Rise and Fall of
Darkness". Dumbledore pulled the book off the shelf and reentered his office, shutting the library door with an "I ate it."
He sat again at his desk and opened the book next to his pensieve. He flipped to the page entitled Ch.6: The Realist's Stone.
He read:
"Greatly desiring the power of destruction and utter chaos, Grindelwald created the Realist's Stone in 1943, two
years before his defeat. The exact opposite of the Philosopher's Stone(which makes the Elixir of Life and transforms metal
into gold), it has the power to cause death and poverty. One of the only ways to completely control the power of the Stone
is to magically bind yourself to it. In this case, the only way to destroy the stone is to destroy the one bound to it.
Grindelwald named it the Realist's Stone because he said reality was pain and all that thought otherwise were kidding
themselves. He saw it as his duty to show everyone that "truth". This is why he made a stone to cause death. This is why
he was so evil."
At this, Dumbledore gazed into the pensieve. An image from over 20 years ago slowly appeared. Mundungus Fletcher
walked into the office. He was white and shaking. He collapsed into a chair in front of the desk. "I have grave news of
Voldermort. He tries to locate the Realist's Stone even as we speak. He thinks he has a good idea of where it hides. He
plans to find the stone, bind himself to it, and, after finding out how to use it, use it's power to wreak havoc on the
population of wizards and muggles alike," he said seriously. The image swirled and another appeared. Dumbledore felt a
wave of self guilt. The faces of ninteen year old James Potter and Lily Evans stared back at him.He heard his own voice
saying" So, as you should hopefully understand, the Stone must be retrieved before he can use it against us. I would like
you two to do it. Will you? They looked at each other and then at him. "yes" They said firmly. He sat back in his chair and
remembered the night Lily and James died. Mundungus Fletcher had told him that Voldermort had been destroyed. The mark on his
arm had faded. And with the mark, also faded the lives of the Lily and James Potter. The Stone was ruined. But not Harry.
Dumbledore knew why, of course, even though no one else did. They need not know. Not yet. Voldermort had, of course, found
out who had stolen his precious Stone. The stone was destroyed as Harry killed Voldermort. But Severus had told him just
half an hour ago that the re-risen Voldermort had plans to resurrect the Realist's Stone. It would be completed in the middle
of Harry Potter's Fifth year, this year. He sat up straight. He needed to destroy the stone, and in order to do that he
needed to kill Voldermort. He needed the stone before it was created The second time. He needed someone to go back in time,
get the stone, and kill Voldermort before he makes the stone. The past could not be dramatically changed. Therefore, he
needed that person to implicate Lily and James. Sometimes his intellect dizzied even himself. He couldn't be spared, and
neither could any teachers, for they were needed to fight the present Voldermort. He needed an experienced student who would
be brave facing Voldermort. Harry Potter was perfect for the job.
