After the end of the war, in light of his unrepentant ways of happily killing those who took his loved ones from him, the Ministry tries Harry for murder and for being the next dark lord. A ritual banishment meant to send him to his own private version of hell is tweaked just a little and the result is... a fortunate exile.

What if one small change made a world of difference? What if a young Harry Potter was in the hospital with Rick and could talk to him in his coma? What if Rick becomes a father to one more little boy during a zombie apocalypse? What if that starts the group on a completely different path that leads them to safety, family, love and a better future for all?
