Harry sighed looking at his newly born daughter sleeping in his hand. He felt like he could never stop smiling. Holding your daughter for first time is an important moment for any father. He felt a cocktail of emotions at the same time and finally he felt content and realize how wonderful your life truly is.

FLASH BACK

When he broke the elder wand in his previous life death and fate were really pissed. Something about irresponsible movie directors ruining perfect moments. So when he died a year later (convenient I should add) death punished him with a muggle life. He was reborn as Harry Riddle.

The Riddles died in a car accident leaving young Harry Riddle comatose in a hospital bed. And Harry Potter woke up in his place. Well at least fate is consistent. All those people who cared about him they were his family they were his real victory and he lost everyone in single stroke. Now he was an orphan again. At least death is creative.

He was raised in an orphanage, people there were actually decent and he had a mother figure in the form of Sister Mary the matron of the orphanage who is affectionate towards all children under her care. Even though she's really strict she made sure all the children were fed well bought them decent clothes and arranged for a proper education. She also was adamant that every child of her should realize their full potential so she made sure everyone gets enough time to study as well pursue whatever activity they're interested in and she also arrange scholarships so they can continue to excel in whatever field they're good at.

Harry was a brilliant student since he had a head start when it comes to studies and is also better disciplined compared to his peers. He also wanted to repay the orphanage and sister Mary for all their support so he with single minded focus and ended up in Medical School with a scholarship to study Dentistry from University of Surrey. That's where he met love of his life Emily Granger. There was an instant connection which developed over five years and he proposed to her the day before graduation. So he lead an ordinary life in every sense of the word and he wouldn't gave it up for all the magic in the world.

Thank Death for such a wonderful punishment. He would hug and kiss no probably just hug if he saw death at that moment.

Harry saw Emily smiling at them from the bed. He gave her the baby. Kissed her and the baby in the forehead.

'How're you doing Em? You look really tired.' He said sitting beside her in the bed so that she can snuggle. And he started wiping her forehead.

'It's worth it.' Emily said smiling tiredly. 'Have you thought of a name for her?' -She asked.

'Hermione' suddenly name appeared in his head. Yeah he miss her the most. He was not against naming his daughter after his friend. But he didn't say the name out loud. He felt there is something wrong.

'No, I haven't thought of one end. I am gonna get us something to eat from cafeteria' -said Harry and left for the cafeteria.

Harry sat waiting for food to be delivered. An middle aged Indian man sat next to him wearing a white suite he was holding a walking stick with a bull's head at its helm.

'Glad to meet you, Mr. Harry Potter. I think congratulations are in order.' -he said extending his hand. Harry looked at him worried.

'Dont worry Mr. Potter. I'm the one who judged you and gave the sentence. And please refrain from kissing me Mr. Potter. Hug would be fine though..'

'Death!' -Harry was anxious this can't be good.

'Its Dharmaraj actually. Hindu deity of Justice. See your Death and fate both were pissed with you. Magic wanted someone impartial to judge you. So your case was outsourced to India. You can call me Raj if you wish.' said nodding towards his extended hand. Harry realized he was being rude towards all powerful deity and took his hand and shook politely.

'May I ask why are you here?'

'You can, but it'll be better if you figure it out yourself. So tell me what is the date today?'

'What? September 19 Why?'

'Year?'

'1979. again why are you asking me this?'

' C'mon think, why is this date important? I know you were not the sharpest tool in the shed. But I thought 20 years as a devoted scholar would've made you smarter.' -Mr. Raj said grinning.

'Hermione' -Harry said glaring at the immortal deity.

'See, I know you'll figure it out.' said looking amused at the young man glaring at him.

'You Son of a... this is justice in your book. Watching from sidelines, helpless as my daughter's life is put in danger year after year and end up being my memory wiped by my own daughter. This is your justice.' - Harry yelled forgetting they are in a crowded cafeteria.

'Thank Magic for notice me not charms. And sit down Mr. Potter' Raj said. 'Mr. Potter you may think it's harsh but I did it to protect you and this timeline. What you did ruffled lot of feathers. Your defiance changed course of that timeline not necessarily in a good way. The Elder wand had a important function in future. They had to create 6 infinity stones to compensate for cosmic energy you released. After all the hard work they put to sort out that mess if they thought you got away easily I could not protect you from their wrath. This is the least severe punishment for your crime that'll keep everyone happy. Also this is the timeline where Harry Riddle dies and Hermione's never born. You know how much chance of defeating Voldemort decreases when Hermione isn't guiding the Chosen one. That's why you're needed here. Two birds with one stone. You understand?'

'Yeah, but tell them whoever is trying to control my daughter's fate wizard or not I'm still Harry Potter. If they think I'm gonna leave my baby girl to her fate alone and gonna be crying in the sidelines they are stupid.' -Harry said angrily.

'And no one expects you to be. You can train and protect your daughter no one's opposed to that. How well you can do it without magic to be seen. A word of caution please refrain from telling anyone about future. It won't end well. See your purpose here is done the moment your daughter is born. If you screw up any plan of fate here you're free game as of now. So do be careful.' with that parting words he disappeared.

Harry entered the room where his wife was feeding his little girl. 'I'm gonna protect you.' he thought holding her tiny hand.

'Hermione' Emily asked 'Do you think Hermione will suit her?'

Yeah 'Hermione Granger sound right for her. Very Shakespearean.' - Harry said with a smile.

'Why Granger and not Riddle? We can hyphenate if you want.'

'It won't be safe to be a Riddle with both Voldemort and Dumbledore around' Harry thought to himself.

'No dear. I'm thinking about leaving Riddle name behind. I'm gonna take your family name as well. I'll explain to you why when time comes. Just trust me on this.' said Harry. Emma agreed worried not knowing where it is coming from. Something's worrying him. 'Well Parenthood changes all.' - she thought.
