Summary
With a sound like a giant bubble bursting, Harry vanished – ripping a chunk of the fence and the earth beneath him into a swirling void.
Dudley and his gang froze, staring at the empty space where the other boy had just been – confusion clear across their faces.
Harry Potter had gotten away.
(Far away, in the humid forests of Albania, a shadow of a man – a mere sliver of soul, the faint spectre of the once-feared Lord Voldemort – felt a violent pull on his magic. He could not resist – could not fight it. In an instant, he was drained, erased, and snuffed out like a candle.
Thus, one prophecy found its end, while another – far away and elsewhere – had only just begun.)
Or: Harry never apparates to the top of the school roof in a feat of accidental magic. Instead, he rips through time and space and – after a few twists and turns – lands squarely in the metaphorical lap of a Dark Lord in his prime, becoming Voldemort’s least favourite plot twist.
Tom, however, eventually comes to appreciate the pint-sized troublemaker he has been saddled with.

Summary
There were a great many things Harry still didn’t know about his world. And he was perfectly all right with that.
You didn’t have to be the cleverest person in the world to be happy, after all, and nobody knew everything. (Though Harry rather suspected Tom would argue otherwise.)
Still, Harry thought it was only fair. If everyone knew everything already, there wouldn’t be much point in anything, would there?
That was what made school so brilliant. It was a place absolutely soaked in opportunity. Or at least, that was how Tom would have put it.
Always seize opportunity by the throat, he’d said once.
It seemed a bit excessive. But nevertheless, Harry fully intended to get everything he possibly could out of the whole affair.
After all, he was his father’s son.
Hogwarts had no idea what was coming.
Between Hogwarts hijinks, a meddling headmaster, and Tom’s overprotective tendencies – paired with his not‑so‑secret quest for Ministry dominance – Harry’s school years are anything but ordinary.

Summary
Harry still wasn’t entirely sure how he’d been roped into these regular meetings with his old headmaster and his merry band of idealists – all convinced they were part of a covert resistance plotting to overthrow the “big bad dictator,” otherwise known as Harry’s dad.
But Harry had taken one look at the whole circus, recognised the covert job description for what it was, and signed himself on with a smile.
The rest was history.
Harry is determined to make it on his own. Unfortunately, building an independent life is tricky when your dad is the Minister for Magic – and trickier still when you have to play nice with a group of self‑proclaimed revolutionaries whose favourite pastime is spinning conspiracy theories about said dad.
Also, there’s a prophecy.
