After Harry defeats Voldemort in the Great Hall at Hogwarts he's hit with a killing curse. Unfortunately, it doesn't kill him immediately, instead it's a slow excruciating process that lasts the next few months. After he's gone, Hermione leaves Britain for good. AU, no romance
Harry's brooding after lessons with Dumbledore leads him to find a portrait he'd never seen before. In it he found more helpful advice than any one living had ever managed. How can a portrait of a servant help Harry defeat Voldemort? Wandlessly of course. No pairings for Harry.
It took a runty giant and a herd of centaurs to get Dolores Umbridge out of Hogwarts, but she wasn't gone. She lingered like bad breath or gas. How many ways could she have gone? 101, Dead or alive, any time frame. Some are more realistic than others, which are just ridiculous. Eventually 101 Chaps. Expect anything. No posting schedule.
Must read I'm not Dark I'm Crazy or you'll be lost. Harry has gone through all those who betrayed him. Now its time to take care of an annoyance. Draco was giving him a hard time all through school, now he'll see what was really going on. Is he truly a Slytherin, or should he have gone to Gryffindor? No pairing, it is AU.
AU Remus runs across Harry all alone in London. Abusive Dursleys. Been working on this again so look for more soon.
How can one person have so many odd things happen to them. A series of Harry's Auror case files.
There is a spell, usually used on criminals, that will empty your magical core leaving you a squib. The counter curse has never been proven to work. How will Harry and his friends deal with this and can he be healed. What will he do with his life if he has no magic. No pairings, just friends.
In celebration of reaching 1,000,000 views on Hunter I've posted this offshoot. Mercedes got accepted to Ambrosia's School for Healing and Research, its a tough school but the only one that has what she wants. Healing is her passion and she wants to make a difference. Harry knew she was brilliant. Thanks for reading all my stories, but especially Hunter.
Snippets and short stories during and after 'It Was an Accident'. No particular order just as I think them up. Most will probably be Harry, Sirius and Remus on their world tour.
In the year since the Battle of Hogwarts the victory hasn't felt very victorious. Hermione was killed just months after the battle and they're still trying to recover. Harry is working with George and Ron has become an auror. What happens when you mix Ron, Harry, George and a bag of time sand. AU (Hermione/Ron) "Accidental Snippets" is a dumping ground for extras on this story.
Albus Dumbledore was not quite the wizard most thought him to be. A few knew but most of them were dead because of him. Thank Merlin wizarding portraits talk and the Potter family was cursed. Harry will soon discover that the man isn't barmy, but he is crazy. Bashing an evil Dumbledore. No horcruxes. No pairings. AU
It's said to be an ancient Chinese curse. If you have been "blessed" to live in interesting times it means life will be full of trouble. Blake Bishop seemed to have been cursed with it. He was set to start Hogwarts with Harry Potter. Unfortunately for everyone Harry Potter didn't show up. So began Blake's interesting times. AU, no pairings and a few new characters.
Justin was a teacher at heart but he couldn't stomach the new ideals. Things were headed down the wrong path and he needed to do something. But he was just a teacher so how could he make a difference. Visiting the right place at the right time he finds the path he had been searching for. The year is around 2100. No pairings.
aka Harry's Revenge - After the battle Harry tries to live. But before he can advance he needs to deal with the past. How does the son of a marauder deal with a past that isn't pleasant? Right now this is a short 3 chapter story. I wanted to share what I had and when I think up some really good pranks I'll post more. Feel free to offer ideas.
**Take 3** 3rd in the series on the marriage law (Stopped in Time is the 1st story, and Sanctuary is 2nd). The first half of chapter 1 is the same (and will be for all of those in this series). With just a few small changes the story ends up completely different. Changes are: 1. Time travel messages. 2. No pairings. How do they get out of it this time.
AU - Harry defeats Voldemort in fifth year, so why is Dumbledore now dead set on sending him to Azkaban? The lies force him to take matters into his own hands. Now he's after revenge and it starts with the aurors trying to take him to the horrific prison. For some reason Snape is one of he few he doesn't kill. Time travel. No romance or pairs.
A short one shot on a missing moment. What should have happened after Mclaggen hit Harry with the bludger during the game against Hufflepuff, sixth year.
**Take 2** 2nd in the series on the marriage law (Stopped in Time is the 1st story). The first half of chapter 1 is the same (and will be for all of those in this series). With just a few small changes the story ends up completely different. Changes are: 1. No time travel. 2. No canon pairings. How do they get out of it this time.
Everyone knows the story of the Four Founders of Hogwarts. But why did they name it Hogwarts? Who were these people? How did they meet? And what was the fight all about? This is a story of how Harry found the power he knows not without knowing he needed to. Time travel, AU, no pairings.
I know marriage law stories have been done to death. But the light side has been bamboozled by Umbridge and Harry refuses to marry Pansy. He will get it stopped even if he has to work with the Slytherins, house elves and Snape. Time travel and Canon pairings. Starts about one month after the final battle. This is a self-challenge and story 1 in the series of 3 for now.
Harry is not content to hear how he is "perfectly safe" and turns to the only adult he feels he can trust. Sirius helps him gain his animagus form, its down hill for the bad guys after that. Then one shock after another leads to a new life for Harry and his three 'Uncles". No pairings. For missgsmith51 who picked the animagus form. **Mercedes Raine is a continuation on this story
Quick little one shot on Seamus. I seem to constantly be replacing fifth year... I hate Umbridge. This is just a way Seamus could have helped. No pairing, just getting rid of the toad.
What is the GAME? Most think its just a game; a way to sharpen their minds. But a few, a select few, play it as it was meant to be, a way of life. Few utilize the tools. Few take it very seriously. Few will actually win. - non-canon pairing for Harry but not until the last chapter, its a surprise.
The long awaited sequel to Betrayal. Phase two will now begin. Reading Betrayal first is a must or you will be totally lost. Mostly from George's point of view. Starts at the end of Eighth year partial overlap with Betrayal.
At the end of Harry's fifth year Sirius fell through the death veil. Harry followed. Now what are they going to do? Canon pairs
What happened to Fred after he died. Not a big tear jerker even has a bit of humor.
He wasn't supposed to remember that he had another set of parents before this one. He wasn't supposed to remember that Peter was a rat. He was supposed to adore the Dark Lord. He was supposed to look down on others. He knew if they ever figured out what he knew and felt, he wouldn't be allowed to live for long. AU
A Dumbledore, Ron, Hermione, Ginny and Percy bashing story - just to see if I can. AU starting after Volde is knocked off. Harry has to protect himself and what friends he has left. Through it all he comes to find a niche for himself. Of course he includes those closest to him. A weird new creature and apologetic goblins, what more can be in store? Sequel named Revenge.
Its a foregone conclusion that someone had to die on Halloween in 1981. It didn't have to be the Potters. What would happen if someone else had died? What if it was Dumbledore? How would that change the world? Does a prophecy exist if no one knows about it?
A few minutes makes all the difference in the world. Sirius reached Peter later than he thought he would and what he found made him look for help before confronting the rat. That one simple decision has far reaching effects on the life of one Harry Potter. AU from Halloween 1981 on. Eventual canon pairings. Warning it jumps over several years.
Harry stopped Voldemort when he was 15. Less than a month later he finds not everyone is as appreciative as he thought. Bloodied and bruised he sets out to escape and runs into a little unexpected help, from several places. Updating THE LIST periodically. I compare Scotland and Florida to show how they break larger nation into smaller parts.
My first try at a Dumbledore bashing story. Situated during fifth year. And the truth shall set you free - free from the greater good that is. For now this is complete, however I may think of more to add later in another story but I'm clueless right now.
Harry woke after the battle to the castle acting wierd. What in Merlin's name is going on? Is magic only in the movies? What really happened to Harry's parents? How will he get out of this mess? Took it out of crossover and just saying its similar to Truman.
The fate of the world is about to be decided. Can the Hogwarts houses join forces and save the day? AU Fifth year after Dumbledor is chased out of the school.
The Potters get a surprise visitor. Mostly sweet with a touch on past abuses.
If they hadn't kissed after the quidditch match how would they have gotten together? This is a series of one shots. All different ways the first kiss could have happened.

The story "150 things I will not do: written by M Mcgonagall" by evans.hazel18 - My thoughts on why students have this rule-Rule 145 : If the thought of a spell makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it. These are rules McGonagall made during her tenure as Headmistress.
Which house was he in? Not ours. Nor ours. Don't put him here. Absolutly not. An ultra short arguement within the school of Hogwarts. Set the year after the final battle.
Written for whitedorumon who doesn't want anything canon. So AU no canon pairings, major out of character behavior for at least one cough*Bellatrix*cough character. No romance. No scar. Reposting chapters to correct grammar errors.

The battle has been won but at a terrible price. AU
Oh the horror... a Gred and Forge dialog

AU It's happening again. Almost three hundred years in the future and it's happening again. Who can help? The whole gang sort of. Triple Trouble is next in this story line, need to read this first.
Lavender and Parvati figured it out. Summer of the Horcrux hunt. Rating for innuendo
