Disclaimer: I am not JKR and therefore do not own anything you recognise here.

Disclaimer2: I started this fic after I read SlyGoddess' work 'A Butterfly Effect' which is very good and you should read it... like now. I don't own anything from there that has worked it's way in either.

World: Harry Potter.

Genre: Female Harry (Both the story base and the 'Possibleverse' will stay the same but the story will change via a ripple effect).

Written in: Mainly Harry's Perspective (3rd) Changes Occasionally.

Main Pairings: Harry/Cedric originally and then others... not sure who as I haven't written that far yet.

Warnings: Mature Themes, Explicit Sex, Female/Female Sex.

Summary: Female Harry. Female Slash. Harriet Lilly Potter always knew she was different, 'Special' but now it's time for her to return to the magical world and see how much so. XX or XY? What's the difference one letter makes?

Notes: All facts and figures will follow cannon the only changes are ones that are made by Harry being female except for the fact I will not pair Ron with Hermione... I don't know what JKR was thinking with that one.

This will NOT be a god Harriet fic but owing to not being starved and traumatised she will have a better control of magic, she will not be more powerful that Tom while she is still in school though.

Reviews are nice, I like reading them, but I will not beg you for them and sometimes even if you do review I might not get back to you. If you as a direct question I WILL answer it eventually if you have messages disabled then I WILL NOT. I hate when authors reply to reviews in-chapter so I wont.

Anyway have a Preface.

Harry had always assumed her mentor had some grand plan, a way of keeping everyone safe. A way of keeping her safe. Of course Dumbledore didn't think of the love of Harry's life with as much protectiveness as Harry did but he knew what it was like to love someone - to truly and totally love someone. He also knew the pain of losing that person; he would not want Harry to go through that.

Harry had also assumed that the plan would keep Dumbledore safe as well. But now as she stared into the fading blue of his eyes it was clear: this was what he intended all along.

Dumbledore had arranged everything so that if Voldemort was ever defeated it would be Harry that claimed the victory, this was him, literally, passing the torch. He knew she didn't want to be the saviour but he knew if he forced her to take lead, she would. If someone had to, Harry would make the world safe for those that she loved.

"Goodbye old man" she said, her voice breaking.

"Goodbye Harry" he replied and slowly his eyes closed for what would be the last time.

Wiping away tears Harry clutched the elder wand tightly and turned on the spot, she had a castle to liberate; she had a loved one to save.

Possibleverse - my term for everything that is physically (or in this case magically) possible, for instance you wont see any Matrix style bullet time action here.
