A/N : Hello! I've just finish watching Hannibal series and I must say. It. Was. Epic. Oh my god. I love the cannibal bromance between them. And I ship Hannigram/Lecham! They are made to be together! Don't you think so? I haven't watched the movies yet, maybe in this next month or so and I can't wait! Okay, that's aside. This fic that I try to write is an AU, where Harry Potter will be the main character. Of course, like any other fics, there's a twist inside. I know that many people don't like crossover, but I will try to do a good one. Reviews are highly welcomed. And English is not my main language so please forgive the grammatical errors.


Summary : AU. Harry was betrayed by his so called loving 'family' and 'friends'. Devastated by learning the truth, he jumped into the Veil in hope to die but of course it didn't happen that way. Waking up in an unfamiliar place with no recollections being there, he was greeted by the Gatekeeper who helped him regain his memories back. Learning the shocking truth about himself is one thing. Thrust into another world was definitely not in his plans. DarkCreature!Cannibal!Harry.


General warning : Swearings, child abuse, mention of rape.

Pairings : Hannibal/Will


Disclaimer : I do not own Harry Potter and Hannibal.


Chapter 1 : The Gatekeeper

"Hey."

"Wake up." Poke. Poke.

Harry groaned. Who the hell did that poking...

Poke. "How long are you going to sleep?" The voice seemed annoyed. "Hey!" Poke. "I've got no time for this!"

"WAKE UP!" Jab.

"OWWWW!" Harry hissed in pain as his side was jabbed by something sharp. "What do you that for?!" He asked angrily before realising he didn't where he was. Harry blinked. All he sees was darkness. Total blackness. What the...am I still sleeping? "Where is this?"

A cough caught Harry's ears. A boy, perhaps a ten year old was staring at him. He has white hair and a pair of cat-like yellow eyes. Harry didn't like his eyes gazed at him. It felt like he saw right through him. Creepy...

"It's not nice to say creepy to the person who saves you, you know." The boy looked offended. Harry frowned. He did not say it out aloud. How can he hear it? "Cause I can." Harry stepped back. Okay, that was a bit unnerving. It was weird enough to wake up in an unfamiliar place with an unfamiliar face. Now, there was a boy who can read his mind.

"Who are you?" Harry asked suspiciously. "Where am I? What did you do to me?" He eyed the sharp stick the boy was holding. Is that the thing that he used to poke him with? No wonder it hurt! The end of the stick practically pointy enough to make a hole out of his body.

The boy looked at him amused. "I'm Gatekeeper! You can call me GK." The boy shook his hand vigorously. When did he get so close to me? And where did that stick go?! Did it just vanish or something?

"As for your other questions, Harry.." GK said slowly. Hands still not leaving Harry's. "You are on the other side of life, the death. You fell... or should I say jumped, into the Veil. And now you are dead." He said seriously.

"WHAT?" Harry shouted. Veil? He didn't remember jumping into one. Why would he do that? That was suicide!

"Just kidding!" The boy grinned before releasing his hands from Harry's hand and Harry sighed in relief. "About the death part anyway. The others were true." He stated in a matter of fact.

"WHAT?" Harry shouted again. "What do you mean by I jumped?!"

"Geez, no need to shout. I can hear you." The white-haired boy said irritatedly. Harry bowed his head in shame. "Anyway, you decided to jump after you betrayed by your so called loving 'family' and 'friends'. It was funny though, to see they tried to catch you, but at the same time wanted to let you fall." GK snickered.

"Betrayed?" Harry's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Ya. Something about you being kidnapped when you were a child."

"Kidnapped?" He parroted. "When I was young?" His minds reeling at the words GK said. Why didn't he remember any of this, then? And the boy said something about betrayal. Did his family betrayed him to the Death Eaters of something? Why didn't he know about this?

"That's because they did something to you. Your mind mostly." GK said.

"My mind?" Harry asked in disbelieved. "No, no no no no no no. You got the wrong guy. My family loves me." He said defensively. Of course. This must be a trick somehow. Yes! A trick by Voldemort. How dare he mess up with his dream! But somehow, in the back of his mind, he believed that it was really happening.

"No, Harry. I'm sorry, but this is real." GK shook his head. "I'm real. You're real. We're in the Veil." He said honestly. "Actually, I didn't think that your mind can take it after what they did to you. You're much stronger than I give credit for." He smiled softly.

Harry still reluctant to believe the boy. "How can I know what you said is real?" He stared at the cat-like eyes. "What if you just lying?"

The white-haired boy stared at him. "You don't. But you can choose what you believe."

There was a long silence before Harry decided to speak. "I... trust you. I don't know why, but I don't think you would lie to me even though we've just met. Not anything serious, no."

GK smiled. "Thank you."

"Did...did you know what they did to my mind? You know, my...family..?" He asked awkwardly. The Gatekeeper's eyes hardened and for a split second Harry could see the fury in his eyes. Why is he so angry?

"Yes.. They, suppressed your memories."

"Can you lift it?" Harry asked, curiously.

GK looked at Harry again. Something unreadable surface on his face. He looked sad and reluctant to answer his question. It was weird that the boy can jump from the happy to serious to defensive in a split second. It's like he can't control his emotions. Like a child...

"I'm not a child." He hissed. "And to answer your question.. Yes. I can remove whatever constricting your memories."

Harry looked hopefully at the white-haired boy. "You can?!" He wanted to know the truth. He wanted to know why he jumped into the Veil. He wanted to know what the betrayal is about. And he will get his answer if he can gain his memories back. "Can you lift it for me?"

GK shook his head. "No. The memories will be forced on your mind. The burden of gaining suppressed memories can make you insane or worse, kill you." Harry gulped when he saw the yellow eyes glinted in the darkness.

"Well... if I decided to jump, then. Maybe... maybe that's because I wanted to die?" Harry asked.

GK frowned. "Perhaps.."

"Then, it wouldn't matter, right. I wanted to know what pushed me until I decided to die. It must be something very painful. I want to know." The green-eyed teen said determinedly.

"Don't you afraid of knowing that someone betrayed you?" GK asked curiously. Harry blinked. Yes. He was afraid. Actually, he didn't want to know at all. But he wanted to understand.

"Yes. But I'm more afraid than not knowing that someone betraying me." Harry chuckled humourlessly. "So, can you help me, GK?" He asked.

GK sighed. "Of course. Don't say that I didn't warn you, though." Harry nodded. "Oh yes, before I forgot. Your personality will probably take 180 degrees when you get your memories back."

"What?" Harry asked, shocked.

"That's because the one they suppressed were your real personality, not this one you had right now. I guessed when your memories back it will assimilate with your current one." GK explained.

"You mean I'm not me?" Harry asked again. Shocked by the revelations. Not only his memories were suppressed, his family also betrayed him. Now, he's not acting like him? Is that why he was so conflicted with himself? Harry chuckled bitterly at the misfortune that befall him. Really, it sucks to be me.

"Harry?" GK asked, concerned. "Did you already lose your mind?" Harry shook his head.

"No. It's just there's always something new I learnt about myself that is quite shocking. Next, you tell me I'm not a human or something." He joked. That's hilarious. He is a human. Don't question it.

The Gatekeeper eyes widened in surprise. "I didn't tell you? You are not completely human, Harry. In fact, you are a cannibal." Harry stilled his body. Not human. He was not a human! Oh Merlin! He's a cannibal! A man-eater! That's worse than Death Eater! His eyes rolled back and he went limp before falling down.

Thud.

"Harry?" GK looked at the unmoving body in front of him before sighing. "That's just great. He fainted." A sharp pointy stick magically appeared in his hand. The Gatekeeper smiled mischievously as he watched the unconscious Harry.

"Now I need to wake him again..."


So how is it? Good? Bad? I know that it was short but this chapter is more like a prologue. The next one will be longer. Should I continue this story or not?

Explanation : As I said in the Author's Note, this fic is an AU. Non-canon. Lily and James are alive in this fic and they will appear in the flashback Harry will had later. They will become the bad guys (sorry Lily and James fans). And Harry is not a human. Not completely that is. If you want to know, you gotta read it. Harry jumped into the Veil but he did not die, GK saves him and the reason why, is in the next chapter.
