With the care of Teddy Lupin now in Harry Potter's hands, Harry wants to settle down. Preferably away from the crowding press and the nagging ministry. Harry moves to the U.S to raise Teddy away from the attention in Britain. Little does he know S.H.I.E.L.D wants to drag him back into the hero business

They wanted him to be their pawn. Instead, he became the player. When Harry Potter sees through Dumbledore's lies and Voldemort's cruelty, he chooses a third path-his own. Armed with cunning, power, and a growing alliance of students and exiles, Harry builds a secret rebellion within the walls of Hogwarts. As war brews beyond the castle, a hidden movement rises in the shadows. Not light. Not dark. Just his way. But in a game of secrets and power, how long can the truth stay hidden?

~Short Story~ Dumbledore thought he could twist things to work in his favor, too bad he summoned someone who couldn't be controlled.

Anna Watson's life was far from easy. A battle with cancer left her frail, defeated, and questioning her life's meaning. Her final moments were filled with regret for dreams unrealized and paths untaken. But when death embraced her, it wasn't the end-she awakened in an entirely new world: the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Yet, this wasn't the familiar era of Harry, Ron, and Hermione. She found herself in the time of the Marauders, a generation before the golden trio. Even more shocking, Anna had a new identity: Petunia Evans, the famously non-magical, bitter sister of Lily Potter. But this Petunia is different. Born as Lily's twin, Anna retains her memories of her past life and discovers she has magic-a shocking divergence from the character she once read about. Her magical abilities open up opportunities and challenges, not only for her but for her relationship with Lily, her new family, and the unfolding story of the wizarding world. As Anna navigates Hogwarts alongside the Marauders, Severus Snape, and her own twin, she realizes that the story she once knew is shifting. Her choices ripple across timelines, altering destinies and alliances. Struggling to reconcile her knowledge of the future with her growing affection for this new life, Anna must decide: should she preserve the world's fate or carve out a new destiny for herself and those she loves? In this thrilling twist on the Harry Potter universe, the story explores themes of second chances, sibling bonds, and the weight of choice, painting a vivid and detailed picture of what might have been if Petunia Evans had the magic to change it all.

She was never meant to exist in this time. But without her, none of them would have. In the final battle of Hogwarts, a stray curse strikes Hermione Granger's Time Turner, hurling her decades into the past-straight into the heart of the First Wizarding War. Blood-adopted by the Potters and going by the alias Lyra, she finds herself among a generation not yet broken by war: James and Lily, Sirius, Remus... and Regulus Black. As she navigates shifting alliances, manipulates Death Eater politics, and dismantles Horcruxes before they're even made, Hermione refuses to let another generation die for a war they never chose. But rewriting history comes at a cost, and the more she changes, the less room time has for her. Falling for Regulus Black was never part of the plan. Neither was becoming a myth. A story about sacrifice, second chances, and the quiet power of choosing peace. Because not every hero is remembered-some are erased to make room for the lives they saved.

Harry Potter was never meant to be in the Triwizard Tournament. But when his name is pulled from the Goblet of Fire, everything begins to unravel-not just the tournament, but the life he's been forced to live. Abandoned by friends, doubted by his mentors, and caged by hidden magical restrictions, Harry finally makes a decision: He's done pretending. No longer the obedient student, no longer the Boy Who Lived under everyone else's control, Harry begins to rewrite the rules. He studies in secret, masters forgotten magics, and allies with unexpected students-particularly from Slytherin. As he walks through fire, faces dragons, dives into freezing lakes, and navigates deadly mazes, Harry forges a new identity: one not defined by prophecy or fame, but by freedom. With Fleur Delacour at his side-not a fantasy, but a fierce, intelligent partner-and Gabrielle as his loyal shadow, Harry's world expands beyond house colors, school walls, and old legacies. This is not the Harry you remember. This is the one who chose to live Unbound. ✅ Powerful, independent Harry ✅ Slytherin friendships, slow-burn romance ✅ Magical theory, creature lore, political rebellion ✅ Found family, emotional growth, no clichés ✅ Canon divergence with meaning and bite

In the heart of the magical world, where spells are cast and secrets are kept, a story of love and destiny quietly unfolds between two souls who never expected it. From the moment they met, Harry Potter and Hermione Granger shared something unspoken, something that would grow in the shadows of their friendship, blossoming into something neither of them could have foreseen. Before they even set foot at Hogwarts, their paths had already intertwined in the most unexpected of ways. At just nine years old, Harry found himself escaping the cruelty of the Dursleys, seeking refuge in the warm embrace of Hermione's family. The Grangers became his sanctuary, offering him the love and care he had been deprived of for so long. Little did he know, this act of kindness would change everything. As they grew up together, side by side, their bond deepened. What began as a friendship, rooted in shared moments of laughter, struggle, and discovery, began to evolve into something more. In Hermione, Harry found a safe haven; in Harry, Hermione discovered a strength she never knew she had. Their connection was undeniable, though neither was brave enough to speak of it. The weight of their unspoken feelings pressed upon them, but both pushed forward, knowing their friendship was something that could never be broken. When they finally arrived at Hogwarts, the magical world opened before them in ways they never imagined. Together, they faced unimaginable challenges, from the perilous mysteries of the Chamber of Secrets to the dark forces that threatened their world. But through it all, the bond they shared only grew stronger. Every moment, every trial, brought them closer, even when the danger surrounding them seemed too much to bear.
