The One That He Will Fear
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter and anything connected to it in the books written by JKR or in movies by Warner Bros. Please note that the disclaimer posted is applicable to all chapters in this story and hence will not be repeated at each chapter.
Author's Note: Well as we now have this disclaimer out of our way, let me give you basic summary of the story. The story starts when Harry is 5 years old and almost dies due to the neglect of his relatives to feed him for days. His body fights to survive and in process annihilates the Dark Lord's Horecrux within Harry. Even though the Horecrux is gone, he still retains the knowledge (not the memories) and power of Voldemort's soul which boosts his own already great power. This story will not have any sort of bashing. I also do not like Draco Molfoy or Snape so there will be the way they are in Canon.
Pairing- this will be a Harry/Ginny pairing. This will also be an AU and a bit darker Harry.
I have edited the chapter 1 and will continue till chapter 6, then I can work on the next chapters.
Chapter 1 – End of a soul
Harry Potter lived at No. 4 Privet Drive with his aunt and uncle.
Dursleys had treated him inhumanly since he had been left by Dumbledore at their doorstep on that fateful night the Potters were killed.
Till the age of 3, Harry had always believed that his name was either 'boy' or 'freak'.
It was a common occurrence at No. 4 Privet Drive, that Harry was beaten, starved and blamed for anything that went wrong at the Dursleys.
Vernon Dursley usually did not hit Harry physically, except when he was too angry to control his temper, so that the nosy neighbors would not know, and anyone may call the police which may cause trouble for them. In any of those times he had broken a rib or a bone in boy's little body. Dursleys had however never stopped Dudley to do so.
In last 3 years Harry had broken couple of ribs and have had a broken wrist and an ankle at times. Each time however Vernon would throw him in his cupboard to heal himself magically even though the Dursleys hated magic.
Harry had been told by Dursleys that his father was a useless drunkard. Allegedly Harry's parents had died in a car accident due to drunken driving and he had somehow survived with just a scar on his forehead.
Dursleys had many times expressed their contempt that he had been left at their doorstep by a man called Dumblydore at the fateful night when his parents had been killed, without any compensation to give feed, clothe him and to give him a place to stay.
Harry Potter had Eidetic memory where the mind remembers everything read, heard or even smell and sensations perfectly with complete recall at will.
While Dursleys were against anything abnormal, Harry was anything but a normal child. He was a wizard and his parents had actually died at hands of a dark wizard who called himself Lord Voldemort. They had willingly sacrificed themselves to save Harry from Voldemort.
When Voldemort had tried to kill Harry, the killing curse had rebounded on Voldemort and his body was destroyed.
Unknown to anyone Voldemort had gone too far into dark arts and had created multiple Horcruxes to make himself immortal. When his body was destroyed (which never happens with a killing curse) his soul remaining in the body latched itself to only alive thing in the room at that time and Harry had survived and was left with only a unique lightening shaped scar at his forehead.
Neither Harry nor Dursleys were aware that Harry and his scar were famous in Wizarding world where he was known as Boy-Who-Lived and was a celebrity.

Present Day
Today he had been locked up by Vernon Dursley into his bedroom which happened to be the cupboard under the stairs. He had not been allowed anything to eat after he had broken an expensive vintage China plate from Aunt Petunia's tea collection, which had slipped from his tiny hands while washing and drying the dishes.
He had also not been given anything to eat as part of lunch that day by Petunia as he had failed to clean the garden.
Dursleys had kept him locked up for the next 2 days without food and water. Only time he was allowed out was to use the washroom.
Due to lack of food and water Harry was feeling very weak and was unable to even move. He felt that he will die due to lack of water or food in his already malnourished body.
He was lying on his back on an excuse of mattress, that Vernon had thrown in the Cupboard for him to sleep on when, and he desperately tried to stay awake, but his body had little energy left and darkness claimed him. His last memories and thoughts were of his parents which came forward as the mind started to close due to oncoming death.
He could remember and feel the love of his father who he had called Da, and for his mum who had sacrificed herself by taking the killing curse meant for him. His soul was filled with the immense love he had felt from his parents and also his godfather who he called "Siri". Also he remembered another face who he used to call "Mooye".
If anyone would have been able to see inside the cupboard, they would find that young Harry's body was lifted almost to the ceiling of the cupboard and was encased within a blinding white light. Within that white light filled which was actually the magic of Harry there was a black aura represented by Dark Lord's soul which was right now fighting for its survival by trying to envelop the white aura.
However, his mother's selfless sacrifice which had saved him from the killing curse worked its magic again and the black aura started to shrink and with a loud shriek was completely disintegrated. If one was to check right now Harry's scar was now barely visible but no longer burning or red.
The shrieking noise had rattled No. 4 and entire neighborhood and the Dursleys came down angrily from their bedroom. Vernon had decided that he will give the boy a good beating for creating such ruckus that he will remember for his life. But when he reached the living room, Harry was floating in the air and was surrounded by a blinding white aura that was now flaring even brightly.
As if paralyzed the Dursleys silently watched the aura recede into the boy's body who no longer looked weak or malnourished. Harry's magic had once again healed him.
As the aura fully receded into Harry, his body gracefully landed to the living room floor.
Had the Headmaster of Hogwarts been in his office at the moment, he would have noticed that one of his silver trinkets had stopped working and had completely melt down into a blob.
