I'VE REWRITTEN THIS STORY. INSTEAD OF FEMHARRY BECOMING DAPHNE GREENGRASS, IT'S A GIRL FROM OUR WORLD WHO BECOMES DAPHNE. I LIKE IT BETTER THIS WAY. THIS STORY IS ALSO AN ALTERNATE VERSION OF MY OTHER STORY 'BAD GUY' (I'M SURE YOU'LL NOTICE, IF YOU'VE READ THAT ONE AS WELL, THAT A LOT FROM THIS CHAPTER IS SIMILAR TO THE PROLOGUE FROM 'HOPE AND THE REFORMED DEATH EATERS', THOUGH THE STORY WILL BE RATHER DIFFERENT OVERALL).

This story is a wish-fulfilment story, pure and simple (what use is fanfiction otherwise, am I right?). Hopefully, even if it is, it won't be bad though. This story will be Original-Character-Becomes-Daphne-Greengrass (but with differences from the Daphne in canon, which she will wish for). OC-as-Daphne will end up with Lucius Malfoy.

Warnings: this story will have Teacher/Student Relationship (Lucius will become the DADA teacher in fifth year and probably in sixth as well).

This story will also have underage sex. Also, light BDSM (without Dom/Sub stuff though), nothing too exaggerated though.

Also, Adultery (Lucius is married) and Age Difference with Older Man/Younger Woman. Once again, IF THAT BOTHERS YOU, DON'T READ THIS STORY!

Dark!OC-as-Daphne (not evil, more like she does what she wants without care for the consequences and she does what is more convenient for her, without caring about the moral implications; she's not sadistic either, but she can be ruthless; she will be a practitioner of the Dark Arts, because, once again, she doesn't care about morals. But she's still committed to help Harry destroy Voldemort because he's a mad man and the world is better off without him), Manipulative!OC-as-Daphne, Cunning! OC-as-Daphne, Self-Serving! OC-as-Daphne, Magically-Powerful! OC-as-Daphne, Smart! OC-as-Daphne. This story's rating is explicit by the way (therefore NC-17/MA). Descriptive smut ahead.

Harry will be similar to canon, but he will be darker than canon (more grey, maybe) and he will be sorted into Slytherin in this story.

Also, this story will have, as side couples: Sirius/OC(Lady Greengrass, Daphne's' mother), Draco/Harry and Remus/Snape.

This story will have a lot of time jumps until we arrive at the more interesting part of the story which is the fifth book (where the war with Voldemort really begins and things start to deviate from canon more). Though the important parts before that point will be covered during the story, of course.

By the way, I imagine OC-as-Daphne looking like Sydney Sweeney.

Hope you like my crazy idea! And please, NO Flames, only constructive criticism. If you have a problem with descriptive sex, underage sex, adultery, teacher/student relationships etc. I advise you to go read something else because I put the necessary warnings beforehand.

Prologue

She was reading 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' once again. It was one of her favourite Harry Potter books, though not her most favourite. No, that place was reserved for 'the Half-Blood Prince'.

She loved Harry Potter, even though she was too old to still be so obsessed with it. She was 25 after all. Yet, she couldn't help it. There was just something so appealing about it, almost addictive in its brilliance.

Of course, the world JK Rowling had created had flaws, big ones; a lot of injustices that don't get resolved at the end of the books.

It wasn't only injustices about the pure blood vs muggle blood debate. It was, for example, the fact that Harry lived with abusive muggles and nobody did anything to change that, just like Snape and Tom Riddle.

It was about the fact that Sirius spent 12 years in Azkaban because he didn't get a trial and nobody intervened. It was about the fact that some of the professors at Hogwarts were just awful and Dumbledore didn't try to remedy the situation, instead he was the one who hired them, almost making it seem like he wanted his students to get out of Hogwarts as ignorant as possible.

Or the fact that Hogwarts was supposed to be the safest place in the Wizarding World and instead, every year, at least five students found themselves in mortal danger. Or the prejudices against Slytherins, or the fact that even Harry himself was prejudiced against them. They basically taught kids before they enter Hogwarts to distrust Slytherins (beside the Slytherin families of course); that was completely absurd and unfair.

Maybe that was what made it so interesting though, even for someone of her age. A flawed world is a world similar to reality after all.

There was also the fact that there were some things that were left to the reader's imagination but were never really explained. For example, the existence of muggleborns.

She had a theory about it. She was convinced that the muggleborns were descendants from squibs who lived in the muggle world and had procreated with muggles. The magical gene was recessive in them but appeared again in their children or a few generations later.

That meant that the muggleborns belonged to the Magical World because they had magic and they came from magical blood too. Muggleborns, moreover, offered new blood into those magical lines that were so inbred – like the Gaunts – that their magical abilities were severely diminished.

However, she agreed with those that wanted complete separation from the muggles.

The influx of muggleborns into the Magical World meant that more and more muggles knew of the existence of the magical world and that put the witches and wizards into very serious danger.

Humans were usually afraid of things they couldn't understand, rationally explain or gain for their own. Therefore, muggles finding out about the existence of the magical world wouldn't be a good thing. A solution needed to be found to allow the muggleborns into the magical world without involving the muggles. And have the muggleborns learn of the Wizarding World's traditions instead of trying to integrate muggle traditions into the Wizarding World to make the muggleborns happy.

A class at Hogwarts would be useful for the muggleborns to be really introduced into the magical world and a class for the purebloods to know the muggle world because they were really ignorant of it and that could be dangerous because they severely underestimated the muggles.

Another problem was the ban against the Dark Arts. Sure, She was sure a lot of curses were bad but everything depended on how those curses were used.

She was of the idea that magical people should at least learn them but not use them unless it was in self-defence. She was rather sure not all the Dark Arts were horrifying curses created to torture people. There must be more than that, it can't be all there is to an entire branch of magic.

She would sometimes think about how she would change the story events, because, why not? It was fun. There were so many possibilities, after all, so many what ifs.

For example, what if Sirius Black had conceived a child before being sent to Azkaban? Perhaps that child could have been Daphne Greengrass. Daphne's mother and Sirius were secretly together since the seventh year at Hogwarts (they were the same age; Daphne's mother had been a Ravenclaw, not a Slytherin) even though she was engaged with Mr. Greengrass (because her family had forced her into the engagement). Perhaps, they were even thinking of getting married in secret before Sirius was sent to Azkaban and Daphne's mother was forced to go through with the marriage with Mr. Greengrass because she was pregnant with Sirius (though Sirius didn't know it at the time).

For that to be possible – with Daphne still being the same age as Harry, Draco and co – Harry had to be born after August of 1979 (so that he would still begin Hogwarts in 1991), instead of July of 1980, but better in October, the 31st of October, – with the prophecy changed accordingly, of course – while the attack to the Potters happened the 31st of December instead, but of the same year (with Harry only 2 months old).

Daphne's mother, at that point, would be only two months pregnant when Sirius was arrested and she would go about marrying Mr. Greengrass and passing off the child – Daphne – as his and not Sirius'. Daphne would therefore be the one born in July of 1980.

Astoria would be born two years after her sister, but she would be a sick child – due to the Blood Malediction – and she would die of pneumonia before Daphne had even started Hogwarts. Mr. Greengrass would die of some kind of accident even before Astoria. So, there would only be Daphne and her mother left (but Sirius would eventually escape Azkaban and prove his innocence – unlike canon – and the three of them could be a family, perhaps with Harry as well, because he desperately needed one).

She also liked to think about Lucius actively switching sides, but only to protect his son (who, in canon, was marked by Voldemort for his mistakes; Lucius would certainly want to avoid that). Lucius was clearly miserable in the Deathly Hallows – and before that, since he had ended up in Azkaban. She was rather sure the only reason Lucius had even remained 'loyal' to Voldemort was fear for himself and his family, nothing more. Sure, he was a prejudiced asshole but he wasn't a sadistic madman like Voldemort. He was more an ambitious opportunist who grew up with the idea that purebloods like him were better than anyone else. She didn't think he was pure evil.

Another thing she would change would be Snape's 'love' for Lily (read obsession). She hated the idea of Snape being 'in love' with Lily Potter for decades. She would prefer if Lily had been his best friend, but that he wasn't in love with her. In fact, she always liked the idea of Snape and Remus together, because, why not?

Sure, it was a little twisted (with Snape almost dying because of Sirius' stupid prank) but that was what also made the situation interesting. The reason why neither of them acted on their feelings for each other would be obvious: Remus was afraid of his friends' judgement and Snape thought Remus was in on the prank, and of course, the rivalry between Snape, and Sirius and James (with Remus being their friends) was a big obstacle – Snape hated Remus as much as he liked him, for being friends with the guys who bullied him (even though Remus never participated in the bullying, he never did anything to stop it either). But as adults, they would manage to start over in some way and finally being together (the forced proximity, first at school and then while working together in the Order, would force them to deal with their feelings).

There were other things she liked to fantasize about, not only what she would change, but also what it would be like to be in that world, being a character in the Harry Potter world, in the Harry Potter story. She could change so many things, save so many people, like Sirius, Remus, Snape, Cedric Diggory, Dumbledore, Dobby, just to name a few.

What it would be like to be Daphne Greengrass, then? This Daphne Greengrass, who was secretly Sirius Black's child?

Daphne didn't even appear in the movies, as far as she remembered and there was so little about her in the books, that she could imagine her however she wanted. For example, she had always imagined Daphne blonde and blue-eyed (but more light blue, closer to grey) – and pretty, of course, very pretty (like Sydney Sweeney, for example? That would work).

Academically speaking she would be very talented, excelling in all her classes, both because she studied a lot, like Hermione, but also because she was naturally gifted. And of course, she would try to broaden her knowledge by studying ahead and in other subjects not taught at Hogwarts.

She would be the best student in her year, even better than Hermione, magic would just come naturally to her, even before Hogwarts. She would be especially talented in Potions (because of her mother) and Transfiguration (because of Sirius), but also in Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts. She would also be good at Divination because she would be gifted with the Sight.

She would be ambitious, of course, as befitting a slytherin student – and cunning, self-serving and manipulative too (and a rulebreaker like Sirius). She would work hard at school, not only with homework and studying from the curriculum, but even outside of it, to be the best witch she could ever be, and she would certainly not stop to learn only Ministry-approved magic, no, she would want to learn the Dark Arts as well, because, in her mind, all magic was worth learning and knowing.

Hermione was certainly intelligent, but she was also too obsessed with learning everything by heart, only following the books' knowledge, without going beyond it, like Snape did when he would invent spells and modify potion recipes. Hermione had never been able to do that. But She would, and that was what would set her apart from all the other students in the school – except maybe, Fred and George, who were the really brilliant ones, to be honest, much better than Hermione, in fact; they were just never very much academically inclined, but they were amazing inventors.

She would also be shallow and very concerned with her appearance, wanting to look pretty and feminine (and sexy and seductive once she would get older). Naturally she would get the best money can buy, whether clothes, beauty potions and products but also rare books, the newest broomstick in the market – everything she wanted, really, since the Greengrass family would be very rich. Therefore, she would also be spoiled and used to get what she wanted.

Daphne would also befriend Harry. Perhaps Harry could end up in Slytherin and become friends with Daphne and Draco, instead of Ron and Hermione – the Silver Trio, instead of the Golden Trio, with Draco and Daphne along for the ride in all of Harry's adventures, helping him like Ron and Hermione helped him in canon. (Harry would be the seeker for the Slytherin team and Draco one of the Chasers).

With Draco and Harry as best friends, Lucius would be forced to confront the fact that he was serving a madman much earlier than in canon and that now, because of Draco's friendship with the Boy-Who-Lived, he had to choose Dumbledore's side – even though he despised Dumbledore – because it was what was best for his son.

And talking about Lucius Malfoy, she was always intrigued by the idea of him becoming the Defense Against the Dark Arts' teacher, perhaps in Umbridge's place and then again in sixth year (somehow, they would find a way to break the curse Voldemort put on the position – perhaps it was an actual cursed object and it was inside the Chamber of Secrets, so, with the object destroyed, the curse would be destroyed as well).

She kept daydreaming about how her life would be like in the Harry Potter world – but perhaps without remembering she didn't belong in that world. If she were to end up in the HP world as Daphne Greengrass, she would want to forget that she belonged anywhere else.

Of course, such a thing was impossible so she decided to stop thinking about it.

She closed the book she was reading, look out the window at the cloudless, starry sky and then closed her eyes, an involuntary wish on the back of her mind before falling asleep.

She didn't notice the falling star passing in that moment outside her window.
