A/N: From here on out you'll have to forgive me as I couldn't remember the name of most of the things I wrote, this one however is about Harry travelling to another universe and uses my OC Julius Powers from Turning Of Time, sadly I never even began work on Chapter 2.
Chapter One
Disclaimer: No I don't own Harry Potter, although I might in a alternate reality you never know.
Harry James Potter aged nineteen sat down exhaustion finally settling in, mere days ago he had finally defeated his long-time rival Tom Riddle better know as Lord Voldemort, his mouth was still bleeding from the cut on the inside of his lip his robes still dust covered and the magical exhaustion he felt soon overtook his as he fell asleep on the dirt covered mattress.
Ooo~ooO
He awoke the next day and took in his surroundings, Hogwarts castle…or what was left of it, once standing proud as one of the most respected magical schools on the entire planet had been reduced to rubble, Harry sat on the edge of what was once his four post bed remembering the events of the last couple of years,
He had been fifth teen years old when his godfather Sirius Black had been killed by Bellatrix Lestrange, This sent Harry on a rampage and he soon got through most of the death eaters to finally come face to face with the dark one himself, Lord Voldemort, the two began to duel with neither gaining the upper hand, eventually Riddle decided to use one of Harry's friends as a shield and bargaining chip, Harry felt a burn inside of himself begin to initiate as Riddle had an unconscious Hermione by the through with a wand pointed at her, suddenly all Harry's magic felt like it was flooding out of with like water as if a dam had broken, Riddle was flung across the room into the marble wall making a huge dent in it, whilst evil he was he wasn't stupid and made a quick retreat,
Later Harry found out about the prophecy and thanks to a Fawkes he found out that Dumbledore had bounded Harry's magic, and it was through his emotional distress that the bounds had finally broken,
Harry finally had it out with the headmaster, Harry yelled about all the crap Dumbledore had put him through, his years at the Dursleys, the danger he had gotten in whilst at Hogwarts along with all the other crap Harry blamed him for, whilst the Headmaster did feel ashamed he simply told Harry it had been for the greater good,
Harry after taking time to grieve for his godfather soon started learn more magic than ever, eventually Hermione was healed and back to her old self while helping Harry overcome his grief,
Eventually Harry broke down and ask Hermione to forgive him for her nearly dieing, she just wrapped her arms around him and hugged him has hard as she could, somehow her lips caught his and the two began to kiss passionately, the next day they were as quoted dating,
Ron had been avoiding Harry like the plague since the ministry fiasco but as soon as Harry and Hermione started dating he blew up, he started spewing out how Harry had stolen Hermione from him, and within moments yelling could be heard, Ginny looked pissed about the new couple but kept quiet, in the end Ron attacked Harry and cost for it when Hermione hexed him, Ron eventually had Hermione alone and tried to as he said 'give her want he knew she wanted' however thanks to Luna who happened to be searching for Snacfurts he would no longer be getting 'it up' even if his life depended on it,
Harry spent that summer memorising books as best he could, he also started taking martial arts classes, which both helped him train and kept him busy, his owl result arrived and he done very well gaining nine owls, his girlfriend beating him of course with fourteen according to her letter,
Harry arrived back at Hogwarts and immediately set up the DA once again, Dumbledore soon started trying to get Harry back on his side and explained about Voldemort's Horcrux's, whilst against his gut feelings Harry agreed to work with him and the two started work retrieving the foul items,
Eventually Voldemort's caught on after Dumbledore destroyed the ring and began to attack back, Snape ended up been the first casualty after his mind shields failed him and Voldemort made a example out of him,
The names began to pile up as the year progressed, Bones, McMillan's, Mrs Longbottom, Mr & Mrs Diggory, Rita Skeeter, to just name a few, the only true light side for Harry was his growing relationship with Hermione, he had also found a sister in Luna, Neville became a close friend but he preferred to stick to the background, Ron was always seen sucking face with Lavender Brown obviously trying to make Hermione jealous but to no avail as she never took in his presence,
Ginny also tried to make Harry jealous but she knew it probably wasn't going to work and eventually accepted the fact that Harry was truly in love with Hermione and not her, eventually she apologized even going as far as making a wizard oath that she just wanted to befriends with them again,
Eventually at the end of the year Dumbledore was killed when he and Harry set out for the locket, eventually they ran into the ghost of Regulas Black who told them how he had died whilst attempting to betray the dark lord, Harry and he had a chat about Sirius and Regulas apologized for ever turning dark,
The next two years were dark times indeed, Voldemort had used some sort of ritual to contact demons, after making a deal with them they infused Voldemort with more magical power than any being ever known in existence, forget taking over Britain, Riddle soon had a firm grasp of Europe which quickly led to the rest of the world, the muggles of the world were soon slaughter with only a few managing to survive b going underground,
Harry try as he might couldn't beat him yet always just managed to escape his clutches, eventually Hogwarts became the last safe haven for people and soon house over three thousand magical beings, the next year was spent recruiting new people and saving as many as they could, eventually Riddle came with his dark legion in tow, the battle was soon on and eventually the two squared off, Voldemort no longer even resembled a human, not that he did much anyway, he ears became pointy his skin was a dark red and black colour, his face was marked with strange symbols and his body was filled out, like a warrior's, it appeared the dark lord had become half demon,
The battle had been a disaster for the light side who were over powered, only one was left standing for the light and that was Harry who had been crushed under a pile of rumble but still alive, with the Riddle and his legion gone Harry soon found his friends and girlfriend dead and Harry just for a small amount of time gave up,
Several hours later, Harry found the light in him ignite for a second time, he wouldn't give up, not yet, not until the Riddle and the rest paid for what they had done to the world, Harry was well aware that his plan was a suicidal plan but he didn't care his plan could be summed up in one very simple sentence 'Walk in alone, Kill them all or die trying'.
Fortunately they all believed him dead and he walked in with the sword of Gryffindor, most of the legion were to shocked to see him and Harry took advantage by blasting them away with his magic, he soon found Riddle getting 'pleasured' b one of his servants and before he knew it the battle ensnared, whilst Riddle was still the more powerful, Harry had something Riddle didn't, 'a death wish', the end came surprisingly enough not from a spell but with Harry swinging the sword with all his might and cutting off his rivals head,
The victory was lack lustre to say the least, those who bore Riddles mark soon passed after it been discovered that if you killed Riddle and you wore his mark you died as well, unfortunately this was true for many of his legion save a small few who hadn't taken but still were part of his legion, his servants and those forced to serve him were overcome with joy and set out to remake their lives,
Harry however simply lost his last reason to live and decided to return home one last time…
Ooo~ooO
Harry eyes started to tear up think about all those he had lost over the years, how it had taken losing Hermione to finally open the gate to his powers one last time and end it, he wiped his eyes upon his sleeves and took one last look around, he had finally defeated Riddle and would finally get the peace he wanted,
He raised his wand to his temple and was about to utter the killing curse,
"Yeah…I wouldn't do that, well not yet anyway" came a voice from behind him, Harry turned towards where the dorm room door was once to see a young man with rather long hair wearing White robes stood slanted onto the wall with his arms crossed, Harry quickly sprung to his feet his wand now pointed at the intruder,
"Who are you?" Harry hissed, the man raised an eyebrow in amusement,
"Friendly one aren't you" he replied sarcastically, Harry however wasn't in a joking mood and the man seemed to pick up on this,
"Put the wand down Potter I mean you no harm" he said kindly though somewhat brassed off,
"Who are you?" Harry asked the man again, not moving his wand an inch,
"Fine, fine my name is Julius Powers and I'm a…well I guess the best term for me would be a 'Higher Being'" Julius said, Harry raised his own eyebrow,
"Yeah nice try, want one more attempt" He asked viciously, Julius held up his hands in protest,
"Hey don't believe fine, hex me" he said, Harry looked confused,
"What?"
"Throw a spell at me"
"Why?
"You'll see"
"Fine, Pertrificus Totalus" Harry cried, the spell however shot straight through Julius who was now smirking,
"Your not a ghost as your not transparent…what are you?" Harry asked, Julius sighed, and he'd had a long day already,
"No I'm not a ghost though technically I am dead, and I told you I'm a higher being"
"What do you mean technically dead?" Harry asked,
"Well in my world I've lived my life now I'm living my after-life, I now work for…well I guess you can call him the 'big guy'"
"What, you work for God!" Harry asked, Julius shook his head,
"Gods actually, but yes I work for the gods, basically I'm here to help you on your path" Julius explained, Harry suddenly felt all the despair return to him,
"Yeah well my paths finished I'm through" he spat at Julius who looked annoyed,
"Listen, I know your hurting and everything…"
"HOW IN HELL WOULD YOU KNOW HOW I FELL!" Harry yelled, Julius shook his head in annoyance he gone through this not twenty minutes ago with another Harry Potter,
"Because I've come across thousands of your reality brothers" he explained, Harry's anger fell a little and a bemused look appeared on his face,
"Basically you know about the concept of alternate realities right?" Julius asked, Harry nodded he had heard about it when watching TV when he was younger,
"Well basically there are and infinite number of you in the whole reality, when they die I or one of my colleagues have had to put up with your little displays of anger so where more than used to it by now, in fact I had another version of you in my office not twenty minutes ago" Julius explained,
Harry calmed his breathing, his pain hadn't subsided yet but interest was peaked at the moment,
"What another me died today?"
"Technically yes, although he was two years younger than you, plus it wasn't his time yet so I had to send him back in time" Julius explained, Harry suddenly felt a small glint of hope,
"You can send people back in time?" Harry asked, Julius caught the sound of hope in his voice which made him cringe a little inside,
"Yes we can, but no I can't do that for you before you ask", Harry suddenly exploded,
"WHY THE HELL NOT, YOU JUST SAID YOU SENT ANOTHER ME BACK IN TIME, WHY THE HELL CAN'T I, DON'T I DESERVE A CHANCE, IF YOUR NOT GOING TO LET ME KILL MYSELF THEN YOU BETTER HAVE A DAMN GOOD REASON FOR NOT HELPING ME!" he screamed, Julius sighed,
"Because everything that's happened to you…was meant to be" he sadly said,
"WHAT, MEANT TO BE, ALL THOSE DEATHS, ALL THE PEOPLE I LOVED, MY FRIENDS, HERMIONE, SIRIUS, LUPIN, NOT TO MENTION MOST OF THE POPULATION OF THE WORLD, AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THEY WERE MEANT TO DIE!" Harry snarled at him, Julius was starting to get pissed off himself,
"You know I don't decide who gets to live and die, you have a problem with that then take it up with the big guy when your time comes, contrary to your belief, I wish all these people hadn't died but I don't make the rules I just follow them!" he yelled back but with less velocity,
Harry took some deep breaths and calmed down, the two eventually calmed down,
"Fine, if your not going to send me back then what are you doing here because I refuse to stay in this…this…hell" Harry stated,
"I can't send you back, you're not meant to do that, you do however have a choice"
"A choice of what?"
"You can kill yourself and be judged either to go to Haven or Hell or you can help fix another world" Julius replied,
"Another world?" Harry asked perplexed,
"A world that's messed up with bigotry and hate, you have the talents and the heart to do this"
"Why me…I mean why me personally, doesn't this world have its own Harry Potter?"
"Had actually, the Harry Potter of this world died as a baby when Lord Voldermort hit him with the killing curse on that Halloween night"
"Does this mean that Voldemorts alive?" Harry asked very reluctant to take on his rival yet again,
"Yes but he's just a man still, no Horcrux nor any deals with a demon, whilst a powerful wizard he still just a man", Harry thought for a good few moments,
"Are any of my family and friends still alive?" he asked hope once again returning to him, Julius tried to hold an expressionless face,
"I'm afraid I can't answer that as my answer could effect yours, I'm simply here to make you the deal" he replied, Harry swallowed a huge breath he hadn't known he had,
What was he to do, if this guy was real then he could just go on to the next life and be done with everything, he wanted peace no doubt about it but his 'saving people' thing knew what was the right thing to do,
"I'll do it" Harry said, he looked up at the young man again,
"What do I need to do?" Harry asked, Julius went into his robes and pulled put a small ruby and handed it to Harry,
"Hey I thought you couldn't touch anything here?" Harry asked, Julius for the first time grinned,
"I'm a higher being Potter, I can do anything I want in this realm"
Harry glanced down at the ruby in his hand, non the wiser he looked at Julius again,
"That in your hands is…for lack of a better term, a transportation device, it will take you to your alternate reality destination once activated"
"How do I activate it?"
"You kill yourself whilst holding it" Julius replied bluntly, "I suggest you carry on with what you were going to do when I arrived tonight Mr Potter" he said before he started to become transparent, Harry realized he was leaving,
"Hey…thanks" he called out, Julius nodded at him,
"Good luck" he said before disappearing entirely, Harry sat his wand in one hand and the ruby in his other,
"Can it really be this simple?" he asked himself, "Do you really have anything to lose?"
Harry took one last big breath before lifting his wand to his temple again,
He squeezed the ruby as hard as he could and cried out one last time…
"Avada Kedavra"
His soul felt like it had been sucked into the ruby as his body de materialised and soon joined him on a trip through reality.
Ooo~ooO
Minerva McGonagall sat at the head table chatting with her colleagues about the new term coming, Hagrid had just mentioned something about a Hippogriff named Swarmy when a loud buzzing was heard from above them,
All the teachers looked up to see a small ruby slowly glide towards the middle of the great hall, and just float above it for a few minutes, they all got up and surrounded it, when suddenly a force stronger then anything they knew pushed all of them back against the walls,
The ruby then started to emit a strong wind followed by what look like bits of dust but the pieces soon fell into place as a human skeleton appeared in front of them, whilst making no noise it's jaw was wide open as if screaming in agony, it soon started to have flesh added to it and eventually vocal cords as it really did start to scream in agony, eventually after what seemed an eternity the now flesh made naked young man finished after his hair had finally grown back, he stopped screaming and started breathing hard trying to recover his breath,
Many of the teaches stood shocked as this young man wore a striking resemblance to another young man they once knew and in one of the teaches case a deceased husband, Harry's emerald eyes though obviously still showing signs of pain met with another pair of emerald eyes across the hall,
"Mum?" he asked before passing out from pain.
Ooo~ooO
Nothing else much to say, I already said everything I needed to in the Authors notes at the top…..
