Chapter one

Harry had a feeling of nothingness as his regained his consciousness. He couldn't feel any part of his body or whatever was surrounding him. He couldn't even panic as he wanted to his mind was completely relaxed.

He heard a voice that seemed to come from everywhere at once say to him "You are not supposed to be here, how did you get in?"

Harry wondered how he could answer if he couldn't even feel his mouth but the voice said "I can hear you just fine if you think what you want to say. However this place is not for you, the purity of your essence is calming and healing those who damned and meant to be here for all eternity in pain. I do not like it. They do not deserve a reprieve. This is where the worst of humanity ends up so I ask again how did you get here?"

Harry didn't particularly care how he got where ever he was. He could not remember a time since he had felt this peaceful and calm. It was like he had taken a drug that stamped out all emotion and pain. He did not want to feel the pain he left behind. He had been drowning in it for too long.

From the moment his parents were killed when he was one, happiness for him was out of reach. Emotional and physical pain became his best friends and loneliness his companion he had been raised a weapon for the masses to get rid of the darkness that threatened the rest of humanity. The rest of the world believed that sacrificing him was worth the price he had to pay so that everyone else could be happy. There was no way he was going to give up his peace now that he was away from them. He would fight tooth and nail...

Well whatever he had to fight to keep from being sent back. So he answered "I don't know, I don't care I'm not going back and you can't make me."

Harry could hear the fury in the voice's words. "Do you have any idea who I am? You do not want to piss me off boy. You are going back; you cannot stay in the underworld you managed to cease the punishment the souls here are meant to be receiving for their choices in life"

Harry felt himself being pulled from wherever he was into a large room that seemed like it was inside a castle the walls were high and looked more cave like than normal walls. A huge throne was directly in front of him made out of bones and skulls that seemed to still have some of the flesh on them. He felt nauseated at the sight. On the throne sat a man that to Harry looked like he would be at home on stage performing rock songs.

He was dressed in black leather had long dark hair that looked as if it was alive. The man's eyes were completely black, they were a bit unnerving. The most noticeable thing about him was the black aura that surrounded him. Now Harry was no aura reader but this man's aura seemed to speak to him about unimaginable pain.

Looking down at himself Harry noticed he was corporeal again. He frowned and said in an irritated voice "What did you go and do that for? I did not ask you to move me or undo whatever it was that was giving me peace. Is it too much to ask for just to be allowed some peace?"

By his last sentence Harry was shouting and not caring about whoever this man was. The man's fury showed on his face as he spoke "You will respect me boy! I am the lord of this world and I can make things difficult for you if I wish it."

Harry laughed and said "There is nothing you can do to me that has not already been done. Do you honestly think I care?"

It occurred to Harry that that he was in the place where all evil souls go. He wondered what it was he had done to even be sent here. Especially after all his sacrifices and everything he had had to endure he had expected to see his parents when he died only in a much different place than this dark cave in the underworld. Did he deserve to be here?

Maybe he did maybe he done something really awful without knowing it and thus showed no remorse and ended up here. But if that was the case then … His musings were interrupted by the man on the throne completely ignoring Harry's outburst, he knew he would need the boy's co-operation if things were to get back to normal. If the boy became stubborn he could refuse to leave and death could stop literally.

"I can tell you are just as confused as I am on this matter, we will have to look at what happened in your last moments before you died. Then we can get you where you are supposed to be."

The man stood up from his throne and waved his hand at a mirror Harry had not noticed. It looked like the mirror of erised that he had seen in his first year at Hogwarts, only the colour was different it looked like it was created out of the shadows. Smoke swirled inside the mirror and the man told Harry touch the glass and keep his hand there.

Harry was a bit sceptical "What will it do to me?" The man answered in an annoyed voice "It will show your last moments and I can figure out what went wrong and undo it so you can go back to your peace where it is welcomed" Not wanting to push his luck any further by annoying the being that punished evil doers, Harry slowly walked over to the mirror and placed his hand on it.

The smoke cleared. He saw himself in the forbidden forest with Dumbledore. The man had betrayed him. He had found a book on black magic bindings. The magic would bind two enemies together under the control of the one who performed it. He would then kill Harry and the dark lord would die as well.

The magic only needed one of the pair to agree to it and Dumbledore was going to make Harry do it. He was going to bind him to the dark lord. Dumbledore had tortured Harry to get him to agree but Harry refused that was when Dumbledore brought out a muggle child he had kidnapped as a last resort to convince Harry. He knew Harry would never allow an innocent to be tortured, he was right Harry gave in to protect the child.

What Dumbledore did not count on was the connection Harry had to Voldemort to come into play. Harry was a hocrux, as soon as the ritual was complete he hit Harry with the avada kedavra spell killing him. Harry watched as his essence left his body, it was a blinding pure white that Dumbledore and Snape had to cover their eyes or risk being blinded.

When it had cleared his body got up on its own with a smirk at Dumbledore and said before disappearing "I never really thought you would fall for it. I mean killing you precious boy who lived. I couldn't do it myself and if it had come down to it I could never have defeated him. His power sings, so much magic in one being. The entire world's magic at his fingertips now mine. Did you know he was the heir of magic? I suppose not or you would not have been so quick to kill him. Now I control his magic and have new body of my own, I suppose I should remember my manners, thank you professor Dumbledore"

Dumbledore looked on in horror as Harry now Voldemort disappeared in a flash of light.
