assassin bashing darkbutnotevil darklord do-over dumbledore dumbledorebashing fanfiction harry harrypotter hermione hogwarts ron secondchance texttospeech theorderofthephoenix timetravel tomriddle voldemort

-Harry Potter fanfiction- 

What if the end battle in seventh year didn't end the way it was supposed to? What if it was just one big slaughtering and only a couple of Order members escaped? And what if Harry decides that the future doesn't hold anything promising any more?

He goes back to the past, that is what. After a rigorous training Harry is sent back to just after his parents were killed. Unfortunately for the Order, his and their goals are different this time around. During his training he has come to a couple of important decisions and conclusion, and this time Harry wants some drastic changes to occur. Screw the Order and Dumbledore, Harry is doing it his way.


---------
It's quite a slow story so if you're just interested in when Harry actually time-travels go to the chapter "Time is relative".

I'd personally advise not to skip the earlier chapters though because they contain all the backstory and it can become a little confusing to start right in the middle of the story.All Rights Reserved

I Hate That I Love You (Harco/Drarry) by ItzIanEdits

Harry's last year at Hogwarts, of course, had been interrupted by the war. The war that had ended the reign of Lord Voldemort. The Battle Of Hogwarts. But Harry wasn't ready to end his time there. He missed the castle, he missed his classes, he missed everything about it. Luckily he would get the chance to go back. Students in 7th year at Hogwarts were given the chance to continue their studies in 8th year. This was set up for the students so that they could continue their magical education. All younger students were to repeat their year before moving on to the next year. Studies would continue just as normal as ever. Harry was happy to have one more glorious year with his friends before continuing into the magical world on his own.

Fix You - Dramione by _Always_Shipper_

The war has ended and the Golden Trio has come back to Hogwarts to complete there 7th year, since they missed it while finding Horcruxes in their battle against the Dark Lord. When the trio comes back, joining in the year with Ginny, they see some familiar faces. Such as Neville, Luna, Dean, Seamus and many others from all houses... Even Slytherin... But what if Draco Malfoy comes back for his 7th year, as Head Boy? Surely Professor McGonagall has made a mistake! But no, no she hasn't...

Another chance. (discontinued) by lila9009

Harry Potter, what would happen if he actually had died that night in the war. What would happen if he got another chance at life to change the outcomes. What would happen if he truly wanted to change Voldemort and make him a better person? Well he gets that chance but a bit more twisted than what he wanted. When he wakes as the younger brother of Voldemort in his new life to find that he turned back time but, took Voldemort with him. He finds out that when he was born it was the same day as his last life it's just he was born with a different home and a younger dark lord sitting next to a small crib when he opens his eyes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ !! You can continue this if you like etc. as long as I'm credited but this is discontinued!!

If we could turn back time by MBlack_93

When Harry is called to the Headmasters office at the beginning of his sixth year he isn't sure what to expect. He at least really didn't see it coming that he would become Master of Death, travel back in time to become someone else, and more importantly to stop Voldemort before he would be lost to the monster. **** ''You must understand, Harry, that it's very dark magic. I don't want to taint your soul.'' Harry hisses, feeling his rage rear its ugly head again. You could taste his magic in the air, and Harry almost imagined the tendrils swirling around him wildly. Dumbledore's eyes widened. ''I call bullshit! The darkest curse was thrown at me when I was a baby, I'm almost of age, and you should just fucking tell me what I need to know. And I mean really what I need to know, and not what you want me to know. I think it's time to trust me, to trust your weapon, because that all I am, right? A soldier in this war, a weapon to end the Dark Lord, just a means to an end. The savior of the wizarding world, the boy who lived, the chosen one, and all that other rubbish!'' **** There will be smut in later chapters. **** Update 13 Oct; Someone actually went and started translating my story!! Thank you @LittleMitty007 Spanish translation: https://www.wattpad.com/story/288139145-if-we-could-turn-back-time Update 9 Nov; Wow! Someone also translated it to Portuguese!

Draco Malfoy and The Half-Blood Prince (BOOK 6 of 7) by malfoy101

*FULL SERIES COMPLETE* This is book 6 in the Draco Malfoy Series. I highly recommend that you read the first five before this one. Draco has been recruited for Voldemort's elite circle, the Death Eaters. Not only that, but the Dark Lord has a special task for him: kill the only wizard who stands a chance against Voldemort. Draco can't kill anyone, much less Dumbledore, a man he has grown to respect above most others. And how is he supposed to help bring Voldemort to his knees when he's got a Vanishing Cabinet to fix? Things get tough during Draco's sixth year, with former members of Dumbledore's army despising his guts, with aspiring Death Eating Slytherins (and not just Slytherins), and with participants in the battle at the Department of Mysteries conflicted about their feelings towards Draco (well, he did save their lives so it should kind of be a no brainer). The real question is: who is on whose side? Draco may be the heir of Merlin, but there are some strange alliances that even he couldn't have seen coming, especially when it concerns his own friends. Rights for the creation of the Wizarding World and all its occupants go to J. K. Rowling.

Erased and Replaced by Elisedeluxe

Dear Hermione, Ron and well everyone, Someone once told me that the universe was larger and more unexpected than we could ever imagine. Until now, I never knew what they meant. If you are reading this, I somehow managed to get this to you, Hermione- the headmaster here believes I have gone into a different universe. We are working on how to get me home but that could take a while. Things are different here, Gryffindors are evil and Slytherins are good. That took a bit of getting used to. Then there is the fact Dumbledore is killing everyone while Riddle protects us. And there is this other kid with a scar like mine but he is definitely not me. It is confusing, all of it. Soon I will get home. I hope I don't miss it too much. Ron, don't annoy Hermione too much and try to train. Hermione, don't bother researching and don't force Ron to study. Luna, don't let anyone bully you or Nevile and stick together. I'll see you all soon, Harry James Potter

YEAR FIVE: The man who murdered her parents is back, and now wants to take the life of herself and her brother, Harry. Things never get easier, they get harder and will keep on getting harder until someone dies. Gryffindor and Slytherin will join forces, Dangers will increase and drama is a guaruntee.

YEAR SEVEN: No time for studying people, we have a war to handle. Emma needs to find Horocruxes but it's kind of hard to do when there is a constant voice in her head telling her this is her fault. This year is full of drama; involving the mergings of S.S. and D.A., Love intrests. Oh and also, saving the world.

Twin Flames by Ostara_Avery

After the war has ended, Harry finds himself at a loss for what to do with himself. He lived, but what did he live for? Who is Harry without needing to be the chosen one or destined to defeat a great and powerful dark wizard? Who is he without a war? Draco Malfoy is also asking the big questions in life after the war. Who is he without his father's influence? Does he want forgiveness for his crimes from the war? Who does he want to be? Does he even want to follow in the footsteps of his family history, or is he finally brave enough to carve his own path? They both get invited back after a year of rebuilding to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry after reinventing himself to try and stay out of the medias eye returns to try and enjoy life and new things and actually live- its easier said than done. Draco returns as part of his home arrest, not that he's complaining- maybe he can make some thing of it. This year, however, the returning students are to be resorted, Harry is but Draco is not. This year an entirely different adventure awaits the two men. With an ancient love spell cast on Harry before School the unknown consequences grow steeper as the year goes on, leaving the entire wizarding world on the edge of their brooms for news of their savior. Can a villain become a hero? Will the hero get a happy ending? Also on Ao3...(Edited version... Some mistakes in this one.)

In a chase for an escaped Death Eater, he is hit by a particularly nasty curse; It just so happens that this curse was explosive enough to hit Ron and Hermione too. All three wake up in limbo after death scares the hell out of the Death Eater and his allies, have their realities shattered by certain revelations, and are given a chance to go back in time to save a Tom Riddle who needs some saving. ---- Anytime I publish a chapter, expect there to be more chapters that come along with it. I never just publish one chapter or just one part and leave it at that, that would be WAYYY too lazy.

Controlled Pandemonium || Where Did It All Go Wrong - Year 5 by fridaystartstheWKD

Y/n comes back to Hogwarts for her 5th year. Over the summer she had been anticipating an old friend to come find her, however her hope had been futile. Over the next year, will she still be waiting for him? Will she instead want nothing to do with him or embrace the path she chose? ________________________ Harry Potter with a (female) reader insert. It's based off the movies, not the books. It will be in the third person but follows the reader's pov, if you know what I mean. Don't correct anything or state your dislike please, it's fanfiction and not that deep, if you don't like it, then simply stop reading it and move on. Also, if you are here for a specific character, you'll most likely see them in future parts of the series, so I'll put the following list in every description, and of course at the end of each I'll give the next books name so you can find it. Love interests in this series (not in order): -Draco Malfoy ★Tom Riddle (Voldemort) -Cedric Diggory -Maybe some other short-lived ones And Tom Riddle is end game btw

Draco Malfoy and the Deathly Hallows (BOOK 7 of 7) by malfoy101

*FULL SERIES COMPLETE* This is book 7 of the Draco Malfoy Series. I highly recommend that you read books 1-6 before this one or much of it will make little sense. Dumbledore is dead. Bellatrix is back. And Voldemort is ready. Draco Malfoy faces his most difficult challenges to date when Voldemort decides to drag him along on every excursion. He must keep up appearances while saving members of the Order and the rest of the Wizarding World because The Boy Who Lived couldn't be bothered to do so himself. But Voldemort isn't stupid-he knows there's a traitor in their midst. Will Draco be able to bring him down before he is discovered? Just because he has all three hallows as well as his trusty owl and Dumbledore's phoenix doesn't mean he's immune to failure. A/N: I am not J.K. Rowling. This means that I don't own Harry Potter. All I do is manipulate the world and the plot to show how Draco is the awesomest character ever.

Coloring outside the Lines (Dramione) by elliewilliams24

Hermione and her friends are invited back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for one more year following the Battle of Hogwarts. Of course, this excites Hermione. With the Dark Lord defeated and the Horcrux's destroyed, she and her friends are hoping for at least one normal year of school before they go into the world to do their own thing. The year, however will become anything but normal for Hermione, because of two things. An unexpected Death Eater rise and because of a boy. A boy she never expected... Draco Malfoy. *All characters and places belong to JK Rowling and not to me. This is just a fanfic*

Early Creature Inheritance by CarleyDTforevs16

Harry Potter goes into hiding with his parents Lily and James Potter when the Dark Lord helps them fake their deaths but Harry does get the lightning bolt because Tom manages somehow to make him his seventh and last horcrux. When Harry turns 11, he goes into an early creature inheritance (Creature Inheritance in this book is when you turn 14, but because Harry went into his, Draco did as well, Tom already had his) and breaks everything of what Dumbledore had put him on, so Dumbledore is in for a surprise when Harry is put in Slytherin and becomes the mate of not only Draco Malfoy but also Tom Marvolo Riddle and Dumbledore is very surprised to see that Lily and James Potter are still alive and on the dark side, Sirius is freed and reunited with his 2 best friends one of which is his mate. READ TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS!!!!! THERE MAY BE RONBASHING, GINNYBASHING AND MOLLYBASHING BUT I LOVE THEM ALL AS CHARACTERS. Normal speak will "this", Parseltongue will be ~this~ (in italics), and other languages will be normal but underlined and I will specify what it is.

Going Rogue by ally_luffman

"Slytherin will help you on your way to greatness." How true that saying was for Draco Malfoy. Not only was he forced to become a Death Eater, but he was forced to maim, kill, and destroy any who dare cross his path. A greatness indeed. This saying would do the same for Asterin Nott - Theodore Nott's younger sister. Asterin is one year younger than Theodore and has to follow in her older brother's footsteps. That includes becoming a Death Eater herself. What happens when Draco and Asterin discover a newfound love.. for revenge? Can these two work civilly with the Golden Trio to eliminate the Dark Lord? Or will their going rogue destroy them? * * * I don't own any of these characters except Asterin Nott! The rest of the characters belong to J.K. Rowling! Also, this book will be rated-r due to violence, gore, and a little bit of naughty.. ;) And this story does move quick. If you don't like storylines to be quick, then this story isn't for you. I've also changed some things so this story doesn't necessarily follow the storyline of Harry Potter.

Death's Gift by PotatoModeActivated

I ABANDONED THIS STORY YEARS AGO AND AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON RE-WRITING IT TO THEN FINISH. The new vs old chapters will be labeled. After the war Harry distances himself from everyone, feeling empty. He spends a year in solitude, only writing letters to communicate. When he's finally drawn from Grimuald Place by the Weasleys, Hermione appears at his front door with urgent and unsettling news. Harry realizes the hidden horrors of his years at Hogwarts and, together, with the help of Hermione, the two formulate a plan to redeem it all. Though, when it all goes sideways, Death shows himself to Harry, his master, and offers him a once in a lifetime opportunity. Will he take it? -- 1. THIS IS A SLOW BURN (iykyk) 2. This is NOT smut with plot, it's a whole bunch of plot with some nice innocent romance... well, as if Tom Riddle is anything but innocent or nice... 3. You WILL hate me by the end of this story, sorry not sorry and have fun reading! 😘
