Disclaimer: I own nothing! I do have a great and abiding admiration for J.K. Rowling and much love for the world and characters she has brought to life.

Harry: Where have you been? Everyone has been waiting on the next chapter.

Me: I've kinda been out of it, you see I lost my mother in November. The holidays haven't been very fun and I've just been dragging myself through.

Harry: I am so sorry for your loss! I know how it is to lose the ones you love.

Me: Thank you Harry, I've had your stories to keep me company. I've managed to reread all of what J.K. wrote and several new fantastic fanfictions.

Harry: I will always be there to help you through no matter what, all you have to do is pick up one of my books.

Me: Thanks again Harry, now how about we get on with this story? I know there are some folks out there waiting.

Somewhere off beyond the confines of time and space, a unique gathering of beings is taking place.

"I'm telling you I felt it, a shift took place. I believe it to be an emergence!" a voice rang out over those gathered.

"An emergence! Are you daft there hasn't been an emergence in eons? The races of the verse are too young."

"I'm telling you it's happening and I think we need to look into it."

"Why does it concern us? Asked another voice "We don't meddle with those of the lower plains the way that you do?"

"And if this being ends up as a malevolent presence that has the power to harm us?"

Several of the assembled beings openly scoffed.

"Why don't you go back to your own reality and play with that little starship you love so much? Leave the important matters to your elders!"

"Mark my words this is a portent and we need to heed its warning!"

Those gathered began to disappear one by one or in groups, all returning to their corners of the multiverse.

"This is not good and I will get to the bottom of it myself since none of these fools wish to help." and with a snap of his fingers and a flash of light he was gone.

Hogwarts 1991

Harry had been both anticipating and dreading this day for ten long years. He had planned for every eventuality but hopefully would only have to take care of Voldemort just once. He knew that when he started full implementation of his plans he would have a major fight on his hands.

He knew also that the theatrics he was about to put on would more than likely get him branded as a dark lord.

Both he and his Aunt were sitting on a bench eating small sandwiches while watching the students of Hogwarts come onto platform 9 & ¾.

He sat with a smirk as he watched groups of muggle born eyeing each other's collars and the Alicorn pin that rested upon them.

"There are more of them than I thought there would be." Aunt Petunia said with a look of confusion on her face.

"Well Uncle Vernon and Alicorn have been extremely busy these past six years. They have already opened tracking offices all over the continent, Australia, the Americas, Canada and in Africa. More and more muggleborn will be contacted on their fifth birthdays. The training facilities are all following my methods to the letter. And when the time is right, the magical community won't know what hit them!"

"Just promise me you will be safe Harry, watch your back."

"Aunt I will make that promise, plus I already have several friends who will be watching out for me as well."

He then pulled her into a tight hug "Head for the safe house when you leave here and I will see all of you soon. I love you!"

"I love you too my son!"

Harry release her and smiled then he spun with a determined step and marched onto the train.

He found the compartment he wanted and knocked twice before entering.

"Alright guys and gals how is everyone?" he asked the five already seated.

With a quick wave of his hand the door closed and locked and privacy wards were thrown up around the cabin.

"Are you all ready for the fun to begin?" he smirked looking into the faces of Dean Thomas, Hermione Granger, Ernie MacMillan, Hannah Abbott and Zacharius Smith.

"Yes Harry, everyone has their assignments. I just wish you would tell us the truth on what the big reveal is."

"All in good time Mione', just everyone remember to keep your minds closed off. I would rather a couple of nosy folks not find out what is planned until I take Voldemort out of the equation. If all goes as planned I won't even need you for backup."

There was a knock at the door, Harry reached out with his other senses to take a peak.

"Malfoy, right on time and with the goon squad."

The conversation broke up as there really wasn't much to discuss. The boy's began a game of exploding snap as the girls entered into a conversation of their own. Harry simply leaned back and thought over everything he had to do, praying he had not miscalculated.

Not even thirty minutes later there was another knock on the door and Harry just simply said "It's Ron Weasley" they ignored him as well.

The train pulled up to Hogsmeade Station and Harry told everyone "Good luck!"

"You as well Harry!" they all replied.

He reached down within himself and pulled upon his magic, with a slight shimmer to his form he disappeared.

The students both new and old were herded along the platform.

"First years to me, first years this way."

"Blimey he's huge!" Ernie said in awe.

The giant of a man seemed to scan over the crowd and didn't seem to find what or rather whom he was looking for.

"Right all first years follow me to the boats."

The gathered crowds within the Great Hall all joined in the merriment of the sorting. Albus Dumbledore on the other hand was a bit worried. Hagrid had informed him upon entering that he had not seen Harry Potter. He had also noticed that this year there were more of those blasted pins on a majority of his students.

He had at first thought it was a new fad but each year more and more of them had been showing up. He had tried looking into the meaning of the pins but had come up with nothing. A great foreboding sat upon his shoulders as if something of such immense importance was about to happen and he hadn't the slightest idea what.

He was brought out of his introspection by Professor McGonagall calling out "Harry Potter!"

There was a murmuring around the room as some of the students asked in excitement "Did she say Harry Potter?" "Blimey the Harry Potter is here?"

But from the group of new students gathered at the back of the hall no one came forth.

"Harry Potter!" McGonagall repeated and yet again no movement from the back. She turned and looked at the Headmaster with a query in her gaze. He simply nodded his head for her to continue.

This was not good, not good at all.

Once the sorting was completed and he had welcomed one and all he was about to give his speech about the third floor being off limits when a figure suddenly appeared in front of the staff table.

There were gasps from around the room and several of the faculty pulled their wands, only the Headmaster could apparate in and out of Hogwarts.

"Sorry I'm late, had a bit of business to attend too." as said figure who was wearing jeans, trainers and a Pink Floyd t-shirt spoke up.

"And you are?" asked the Headmaster

"Why I'm Harry Potter, I do believe you have been expecting me Albus!"

"That's Professor Dumbledore or Headmaster to you Mr. Potter." replied an angry McGonagall

"Oh but see Professor and Headmaster would be appropriate if I planned on actually attending this school. Now before we get into the whole you are attending this school and what not, I have something to take care of."

Snape jumped up from his seat pulling his wand "You will show proper respect to your elders Potter." he was then shocked as were all those present as Harry simply smirked at him.

"You will have to wait your turn Severus!" and too Snape's utter horror he couldn't move or utter a single word.

"There seem to be some players missing!" Harry stated rubbing his chin. "Oh yes!" with a wave of his hand all of those known to be Death Eaters as well as The Minister of Magic and one Deloris Umbridge all appeared before the gathered students.

The Death Eaters as well as Umbridge all pulled their wands only to freeze in place.

"Now now, I can't have you hurting anyone." laughed Harry

"DUMBLEDORE, WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" screeched the Minister

"Quiet Cornelius, I'm trying to take care of some business here." replied Harry leaving Fudge sputtering in shock that he had been spoken to by a child in such a way.

"Harry what is the meaning of this?" asked the Headmaster

"The meaning of this Headmaster is I don't wish to play your games or those of the great and powerful He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named bloody Voldemort."

Quirrell snapped to his feet calling out "AVADA KEDAVRA!" only for nothing to happen. He looked down at his wand in horror.

Harry's grin turned a little unsettling for those who saw it.

"Tutt tutt Professor, trying to cast a killing curse in the middle of a room full of children. That cancerous growth on the back of your head must have messed up your magic."

Harry smirked and the turban atop Quirrell's head simply vanished.

"Hello oh great and powerful Voldemort, I've been dying to meet you." said Harry

"Harry my boy you must stop this, whatever it is." Dumbledore tried to say

"What this is, why it's a reckoning Albus! It's the righting of wrongs committed by hateful beings. Now I said WAIT YOUR TURN!"

Dumbledore was shocked and a little saddened at what he would have to do. He pulled his wand from his sleeve only for it to leap out of his hand to sail into the outstretched hand of Potter.

"Even this wand will be no help to you Albus."

This was not possible, the Elder wand was his. His fury at this child for taking it reached a peak and Albus tried to flex his magic for a threatening display. Only to realize it wasn't there, great Merlin's beard my magic is gone.

"Now sit down Albus before you have a stroke." Harry said turning his back on the Headmaster and facing Quirrell.

"Let me see him!" a hissing voice said from behind the frightened Professor.

There were several screams from behind Harry as Quirrell spun around to show the malformed growth on the back of his head.

"Ah the boy who lived, come to die at my hand."

"I think not oh great and powerful Voldemort, or should I call you squib Voldemort?"

"What are you talking about boy? I am the most powerful Wizard alive!" and with a flick of Quirrell's wand he tried to cast a curse at Harry only for nothing to happen.

"Now see this is where you are wrong Tom! You are now and will remain for all time a muggle."

"Not possible, I am The Great Lord Voldemort!"

"No you are Tom Riddle a hack and a has been or rather you will be in a moment."

With a wave of his hand several objects appeared in front of Voldemort, his eyes bulging from their sockets. "NO THIS ISN'T POSSIBLE!"

"Oh but it is Tom, you see when you cast that killing curse at me all those years ago it interacted with the spell my mother had cast. And guess what my mind was opened in ways you could never even dream of. Now here are your little trinkets, let's put you back together shall we?"

Wisps of black smoke rose from each of the objects hovering in front of Riddle and then to the amazement of everyone present the face on the back of Quirrell's head dissolved and became black smoke as well.

All of the smoke coalesced into the form of a very human looking Tom Riddle.

"What have you done to me?" he asked.

"Why I've given you what you always wanted, I've made you immortal."

"But my magic, I can't feel it!"

"Of course you can't, there has to be a price paid. And that price Tom Marvolo Riddle is your magic. Once you leave these grounds you will not remember anything to do with the magical world."

With a snap of his fingers Harry sent The Great Lord Voldemort away to live forever as a muggle.

"Now let's see, who do we deal with next? I know let's see what the so called purebloods have to say for themselves. I'm thinking you deserve the same as Riddle just without the immortality, what do you guys think?"

Some of the gathered Death Eaters looked rather pale after witnessing the resurrection and then banishment of their so called leader.

"For crimes against both the magical and mundane world I sentence you too…"

He was interrupted by a flash of light and someone appearing in the recently vacated seat of Quirrell's.

"Well what do we have here? Looks as if I was right after all there has been an emergence. What is your name son?"

Harry looked up at the new player with a frown upon his face.

"Seriously? Why have there always got to be complications? And who the bloody hell are you and why are you here?" he asked.

The man looked down from the table at Harry with a smirk on his face. "I felt your awakening but I seem to have arrived a little late."

Harry ran through memories of other realities at lighting speed trying to see if he could place a name with the face. In a few realities he finally came across the memories he wanted and all of them took place a few hundred years in the future.

"I know you, what are you doing here Q? And why bother me? Don't you have a certain little ship to be playing with off in your own reality?"

"What?" asked the flabbergasted Q "How do you know me? I don't remember ever meeting a child like you and a Q never forgets."

"I'll tell you what Q you let me finish my business and I will answer any questions you have?"

"Fine but I am not leaving here until I get those answers, so on with whatever this may be."

Albus couldn't hold it any longer "Harry my boy what is the meaning of all of this and who is this man?"

"Now now Albus answers will be had as we continue with the festivities. Now where was I before that little interruption?"

Q scowled at being labeled a little interruption but didn't say anything else.

"Oh yes, our lovely pureblood Death Eaters. What should your punishment be hmm?"

A voice from behind his back spoke up "Potter I don't know what you are playing at but my father is not a Death Eater. He was absolved of his crimes because he was under the Imperius Curse."

Harry turned and looked at a fuming Draco Malfoy.

"Draco I hate to break it to you but your father paid his way out of being sentenced and lied like several others about being under that curse. But since you won't believe me, how about we do what should have been done to begin with?"

He pulled a small vial from his jeans pocket. "Do you know what this is?" he asked Lucius. I really don't need it, I could compel you to speak only the truth. But I want everyone here to hear it and believe it with their own magical means.

"Veritaserum can not be used on a pureblood, it's a law of the Wizengamot." Lucius sneered.

"It may very well be a law but it is one that will have to be stricken from the books." replied Harry with his own sneer.

"You see dear Lucy, the days of corruption within the magical world are coming to an end. Everyone and this includes me are sick of having to fight for our right to live a peaceful life. You think you know best for everyone and wish to rule over the magical and mundane world. Well I am here to set you all straight once and for all. I have been planning this for 10 long years, ever since the night my parents were killed by that so called dark lord of yours."

"Since we seem to have an uninvited guest I will let you all in on a few little secrets, this should answer some of the questions rolling around in those dense brains of yours."

Harry took a deep breathe and recanted the tale of the night his family was killed by Voldemort. How his mother had tried to cast a spell to send him to another Earth for safe keeping but had failed only for Voldemort to throw the killing curse at him and awaken memories from throughout the entirety of the multiverse.

How he had spent the last decade plotting and planning just like all of those present had been.

"You see there is always one constant in all of the other Earths out there and that is the pain and suffering of those I love. I am sticking my foot down and saying no more! You see I now control the entirety of magic on this world, I can give it to any I wish and can take it away from those who abuse it. Your time is done, you have abused what Mother Gaia has granted you. And I think that will be your punishment, unlike Tom Riddle aka Moldy Shorts you will remember what you have lost. There will be no way for you to ever again gain magic by any means other than if I grant it."

"Harry, son let's talk about this. There has to be another way taking away magic from those it rightfully belongs to and giving it to muggles is not the way to go." Albus tried to reason.

Harry turned to look Dumbledore square in the eye's. "I am not nor have I ever been your son or boy. You placed blocks on my core and then placed me on a doorstep in the cold, an infant in the cold Albus. Why should I listen to anything you have to say?"

Harry could feel the gentle push against his mind as the Headmaster tried to force entry in a bid to stop him.

"You wish to see what is in my head Albus? I warn you that you won't like what you see!"

Harry opened up images of Albus Dumbledore from multiple worlds all of them where is was the villain and showed them to him. All of his manipulations for the greater good and a few were he was just as bad if not worse than Voldemort.

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore sat and watched as he lived other lives and did great wrongs and he wept.

"What have I done, what will I become?" he whispered.

A/N: And I think that is a good place to stop, this chapter just kept going and wouldn't let me finish. But I'm gonna stop it there since its already two pages longer than I like most of my chapters.

Also yes I threw in Q and he does play a limited role in the story, he is not however our bad guy dujour! That comes later after we close out the Hogwarts story. And yes I know it feels like I am rushing the story but I get tired of those plodding Hogwarts plot lines that we have read over and over again and since I already have one of those in Destiny's Forge I'm cutting this one short. So Hogwarts story line will probably be closed out with in the next two chapters if not sooner. Then we can run out into the great beyond!

As usual I hope you enjoy and please review. Any critics, suggestions, questions just PM me.
