Darkness

"What the… Where am I?" I'm not quite sure what happened but I feel like I'm floating.

"This is very strange. Why is it so dark in here? I cannot see anything." I'm getting scared now.

I feel warmth strangely, a comforting warmth and a pulse as if there's a heartbeat. No, there are two heartbeats.

Suddenly I feel like I'm being squeezed from all sides. Oddly, it's not painful.

Hold on there's a light, and: "OH GOD WHY IS IT SO COLD".

I can see again! Very blurrily mind you. Holy shit these are giants! I'm being held by giants.

I'm feeling terrified now and start to cry.

The giants… seem pleased to hear this?!

Suddenly I'm handed off to another giant.

Then it hits me.

Oh I died. And I was reborn?

Before I can even think on this further my thoughts are interrupted by another loud cry.

This time however it did not originate from me.

I have a twin?! Ahh that's what the second heartbeat was.

I hear a woman's voice now, the one that is holding me, no us.

"Hi Jamie, hi Harry. Welcome to the world."

Our names… Huh. Suddenly I'm feeling incredibly tired, and sleep takes me nearly immediately.


Being a baby is interesting to say the least.

I am pretty sure the first time around I was not nearly as aware nor did I remember a past life.

Currently I am 5 months old apparently. I have made a few shocking discoveries in the meantime.

"WHAT?!" So, my mother's name is Lily. My father's name is James. My brother's name is Harry.

More alarming however was the fact that magic existed in this world. That's right actual proper magic. Actual proper Harry freaking Potter type magic.

The moment I put it all together was a shocking feeling that lasted for a long moment.

However the feelings that came afterwards? Excitement, elation!

You see in my previous life it would be an understatement to call myself a bit of a geek.

Anime, gaming, DnD, Fanfiction,... All that good stuff, I lived it.

Some kind of reincarnation isekai type story? It was everywhere! I had dreams about it.

To actually live it? Well my mind was whirring at the possibilities.

One thing was clear however. Me being the twin of Harry Potter was not cannon.

And as far as I'm concerned cannon can go jump off a cliff. Voldemort might've been defeated at the end but the costs were too high. And thus I started planning…


AN: Thank you for reading the first chapter of my first ever fanfiction story!

I've always loved to read fanfiction but now I'm going to try my hand at finally writing one.

I've wanted to improve my writing for a long time now.

There's no better practice than actually doing it I think.

If you have any suggestions or spot any mistakes please do share!
