A/N

This story and all its characters belong to JK Rowling

This is my first story with numerous chapters. This is a very small fic that crossed my mind. I just love sane Voldemort and Dumbledore bashing fics as it all makes sense. I have read many fics of either sane Voldemort or fem Harry with a Snarry pairing. So why not merge them both. I felt I have read enough fics to make my own. This story takes place between Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix just before the dementors attack. Well, the rest of the story is AU. Harry is oblivious to his liking for the dark as Tom's soul was dependent on Harry's mind which is also the reason for Harry's hardly average grade. Please don't forget this is a Harry Potter/Severus Snape story. Well here is my take on a sane Voldemort and fem Harry with Snarry. I will mention Voldemort as Tom when he is sane and Voldemort when not. So enjoy this tale and keep reading…

Harry had been woken up many times, by a frantic shaking or by the feeling of dust on his face and his most remembered one by the banging of his cupboard but never was he woken up by the gentle shaking of his body. A way so common to all yet so foreign to Harry. He felt like hugging the person who woke him like this and cry his eyes out. Harry quickly decided against that. Soon memories of the previous night came to him. First, it was pain torturous pain that became more and more excruciating. Then he felt a stabbing pain again so agonizing so unendurable and finally, all his memories came to him.

Flashback:

It was a starry night, and Harry was watching the clock. Five…..four…three…..two….one…. 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME' Harry thought. And then he screamed, screamed as if the cruciatus was ten times more strong. For hours and hours, he screamed till he was hoarse and still more. Harry felt like he was on fire. And Lord Voldemort's soul in harry ran to Lord Voldemort dragging harry to Voldemort's den.

Far away seated on a throne Lord Voldemort felt the same agony. With only Nagini as a witness who felt painful trial herself. Voldemort felt his body changed. From his hairless body hair grew with the double pain that before, his snake-like face changed into a human one. Voldemort felt pain more than he ever did. Tom got his 99.21875 souls and sanity back. Then he saw a boy whose hair was ruffled and he was shaking. Tremors wracking through his body. And when Tom and Harry thought that the pains were over they begin again tenfold.

Harry felt like a piece of himself split apart and Tom felt as if a foreign part came and forced itself onto him. His soul was whole yet in spirit, it wasn't fully his.

At the end of his pain Harry did the only thing he could do, he fainted. Tom did not faint but he tried to clear his mind and compose himself. There was an eerie silence. The only thing one could hear was the dark lord's shaky, uneven and laboured breaths.

End flashback

Harry opened his eyes and blinked again the luminous light blinding him. After a while, he saw a surprising sight it was, Tom Marvolo Riddle. Not the snakelike man but an older version of the 16-year-old Tom Riddle. Harry thought he was dreaming.

Tom's look spelt 'I am going to do business with you and you will listen to me like a sheep'. Harry sat on the chair opposite Tom's. Harry's stance is spelling business too. Harry then started, " I want to present a truce with you. No killing me and no fighting me. Are there any type of vow to do it which kills or takes away magic if one breaks it? With of course me doing the same"

Tom argued, "Well there is the unbreakable vow but swear vow will do plus it has no need for a bearer or a third party."

They went on and on with forming the wording of the vow. Soon they did the job with the wording to be as follows, " I Harry James Potter/ Tom Marvolo Riddle swear on my magic and life to never fight with Harry James Potter/ Tom Marvolo Riddle with an intent to kill, fatally injure or bodily harm Harry James Potter/ Tom Marvolo Riddle and will not tell others to do the same for me this is what I say so mote it be"

Harry suggested for him to go live in the muggle world. Tom agreed and suggested for him to take one of Tom's minions as a bodyguard. Harry scowled at that. He, "So that they can kill me or torture me your order or not."

And then came an argument for the next 15 minutes that follows. They both decided that Snape is the best as he is a spy for Harry due to his unwavering loyalty to Lily Evans (I must have been very insane end of reign he made it so clear that he was the spy and loved Lily Evans, he even asked to save her) and loving sibling-like relationship. Harry had a lot to say about that.

Then Harry reluctantly agreed to change his gender and pretend to marry Snape but ONLY IN THE MUGGLE WORLD. (As much as the idea disgusts me it makes sense and if I find my other half then we can just divorce) Both decisions taking their own time.

They then decided on the other finer details and called Snape.
