    Summary

    This summer was the breaking point for Harry Potter. On top of the verbal and physical abuse he went through, he now has to compete in a competition he did not sign up for. Harry's 'friends' have abandoned him, his teachers not believing him and is left to fend for himself. Harry sneaks down to the Chamber of Secrets to release tension and panic in private but ends up discovering Slytherin's Personal Library.
    Armed with magic, shielded by a Horcrux he discovers inside himself, Harry vows to no longer become victim to manipulation. In doing so, Harry breaks the hold that was on his magic, discovers his creature inheritance and maybe ends up saving the world with his so thought enemy.

    Summary

    War. They had dragged her into it, wrapped her in prophecy, and painted her as some messiah with a target on her back, all to clean up their mess. She was supposed to fight their battles, die their hero, and leave the world tidily saved.

    It should have ended. She did her duty, paid in scars and losses, and tried to make her peace. Yet here she was, tossed back nearly three decades by a smugly amused Lord Death, dumped into the year 1956 with a son she'd kept hidden from the world and a blood-adopted daughter who carried a legacy darker than any shadow she'd ever faced. Thomas Alexander Potter, three years old, bright-eyed, her heart's calm ancho and Delphini Lilith Potter, They were hers, that meant something.

    Her goals were simple, if slightly ambitious: avoid meddling wizards, rewrite the future, and raise her children without the looming threat of war breathing down their necks. Shouldn't be too hard, right? She'd already defeated one megalomaniac. What was a little time travel, a few impossible odds, and the chance of crossing paths with Tom Riddle when he was still just a snake-eyed schoolboy with delusions of grandeur?

    Summary

    Harry Potter has always known he was different from the Dursleys, but when he meets Death at the age of nine, he learns of an entirely new world. A magical one. He knows to expect a letter from a magical school, and is happy to learn that when Professor McGonagall shows up to deliver it personally, she has no intentions of ever sending him back to the Dursley home and instead informs him of his birthright as an heir not only to the Potters but also to the Blacks. Now with a home of his own, although plagued with a yapping portrait and a scowling house-elf, Harry finally learns what it means to be free, and he begins his schooling. However, Harry quickly discovers the magic he uses is not like that of his schoolmates, but something else entirely, something old and forbid-den in Britain, and he has to hide away his true self to not rouse any suspicions.
    Or
    Harry Potter uses old magic, considered dark, he’s slightly bookish, unhinged and weird. During his fourth year at the Triwizard tournament an obsessive Durmstrang student seems infatuated with him, and he can't tell if becoming closer with this boy will make him happy or lead him directly to hell.

    Summary

    “No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
    Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
    “That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
    Harry didn't like the sound of that.
    “But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
    “Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.

    Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

    Summary

    “Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!”
    “Stand aside, you silly girl… stand aside, now”.
    And Lily Potter stepped aside.
    Voldemort stared at her.
    “... Is this some sort of trick?” he asked softly.
    “No". Her voice was flat, lifeless. “You already killed James... If you let me live, then you can have Harry”.
    Voldemort’s lip curled - not in amusement, but disgust. His own mother had died for him. Pathetic, yes, sentimental and foolish - but she had chosen to die so that he could live. Lily Potter wasn’t even choosing to care. Surely the child of prophecy deserved a better mother than this! Even he could give the boy to a better family to be raised right!
    Voldemort slowly reached down and picked up the child.
    He was still staring at him. He was still oddly silent. His eyes were still the colour of the Killing curse and brimming with power.
    Yes, Voldemort decided, that was exactly what he’d do.
    "You belong to me now" he whispered.
    And with a crack like thunder, he turned on the spot, vanishing into the night.

    Or, the one where Harry Potter is raised by the Lestranges and it goes more or less how you would expect.
