Hey everyone and welcome to my first attempt at a Harry Potter story. You will have to forgive me if it is not written all that well as I am fairly new to the idea of creating fan fictions. That being said I have sort of had this idea in my head for awhile and I hope it can gain some attention. If you do like it I would love some feedback and some opinions on where the story could go. Anyways enjoy Chapter 1!

"Okay, Okay don't freak out, don't freak out" loudly whispered a young raven haired girl who's only telling features, besides the lively green eyes that many have claimed reminded them of the girls mother, was the lightning bolt scar.

"Let's think logically and we can scream later. I'm going to make a huge assumption and say I'm in Harry Potter's world simply because of the fact that their is a snow white owl perched in front of me." Exclaimed the now pacing girl, said owl hooting softly in reply, which from wide eye looks the girl was getting was just as confused.

"Let's recap, I was rereading the Harry Potter book, I distinctly remember reading right before his aunt showed up before suddenly getting very tired and my vision getting blurry. Then nothingness just pure nothing before waking up. Which makes me ask several questions, such as why am I here? Why do I resemble Harry with this damn scar, and more importantly why the HELL am I a girl!" furiously whispered the young women.

Yes, the girl was indeed once a boy, and regardless of said boy's memories of both of his "lives"; as she could remember the life before the strange occurrence, as well as the memories of the body she now possessed. Which made it even more confusing because "THE" Harry was indeed a young male. The same is said about who was now residing in said female body because that person too was male prior to all this. She was really trying to figure out a two males make a female person. It only made her headache worse. Deciding to forgo the identity she once held; what she will now think of as a previous life, she focused on the current situation she was now found in. Which, would have been an awesome story if it wasn't real.

Thinking furiously the newly feminine Harry, who was indeed a fully functioning women, ran a nervously shaking hand through her long,messy, raven colored hair. Her now soft features showing just how frazzled the young girl really was. With her brows crunched in a mixture of thought and frustration, hair mushed messily as if just waking up, and mouth firmly planted in slight frown.

Before waking up the girl would have found this awesome, waking up in a world where magic exists and was in fact a powerful wizard, er, witch. After waking up her thoughts went form scared shit less to the now frustrated feeling currently held. She realized that the high she felt would fall when she could fully sit down and think about all she lost but first she needed to figure out what was currently going on.

Steeling her nerves to try and focus on the current situation, she first began formulating a plan. There was no way in hell she was going to stay with the abusive Dursley's. Although there was no evidence of being physically abused, she remembered the verbal and emotional abuse, in both regards of reading it and having the actually having lived the memories. Regardless she wasn't taking the risk and finding out how bad it could be. With that in mind she began putting her plan into action. Walking around the room she put the little she owned in the trunk in her room making sure to make as little noise as possible. It really didn't take long due to how little she had, she only slowed when she reached the framed picture of Lily and James Potter, Harry's parents…. Her parents.

This was a new feeling for the young women as in her previous life she now dubbed it she never really knew who her parents where. Granted she did have a family she came to love but it wasn't anybody she was related to. No this was a family she had gained through time by the sharing of experiences and creating bonds that she would always remember as shaping the individual she was. A stray thought went through her brain when she realized how easily it came to referring to herself as a women when what felt like hours ago she was a young man. Finally deciding to store the frame as well she went to finishing collecting her things. With that done she walked calmly to the window and open it before turning to the owl that had been following her every movement with its eyes.

"Okay girl we both know I'm not the same Harry you have bonded with these past couple of years. I'm giving you the option to leave freely and live the life you wish. I will not force you to help and stay with me when I am both physically and mentally a different person. That being said I would love to have you stay, so we can both form a new bond and continue to care for each other. God knows I doubt I'll be able to keep many of Harry's friends and having one sure friend would really make me feel better." said Harry whispering the last part more to herself than the owl, but the owl heard it anyways.

After several minutes of the owl regarding the young women in front of her, Hedwig came to a decision by leaving her perch and landing on the woman's shoulder nipping and softly hooting in the girls ear.

"I guess that means we are sticking together huh, I can't thank you enough for that Hedwig and I'll try my best to care for you as good as your old Harry did. For now I want you to fly freely and do as you please and meet me when I can get a room at the Leaky Cauldron. First I'm going to head to Gringotts because I have the sneaky suspicion that it would be best to have proof of who I am and get it established before the shit hits the fan." she explained to the snow owl. After another soft nip of the ear followed by a soft hoot Hedwig flew out the window into the night sky.

After collecting her things along with Harry's wand, now her wand, she left the house with her trunk as quietly as possible for hopefully the last time. Successful sneaking away from 4 Privet Drive she walked towards the kids playground up the road away from the majority of the houses. Upon sitting on a bench and opening the trunk to pull out some money for the night bus she was startled by the soft growling of a dog a short distance in front of her. Quickly realizing who it was and based of the confused look in the eyes of the animagus she raised her hands in a placating manor.

"Hey, hey calm down boy." said Harry "If you are who I think you are then you are as most likely as confused as I am." Seeing the dog who had by now stopped growling tilt its head in confusion continued on, "Please don't attack me before everything is said, I know who you are Sirius Black" Realizing the now panicked look on the dog she hastily continued, "I know your innocent and are looking for both your godson and the traitor Peter. I know you probably don't trust me but well how do I put this… um.. I am Harry." Which the dog obviously didn't believe based on it growling again, now louder. Realizing she was going to have to gain his trust she decided to do something probably stupid.

Quickly dropping her wand on the ground and kicking it towards the dog she continued to explain your actions. "I need you to really trust me so I'm giving you my wand as a sign of faith. Please take the wand and follow me, we don't have much time and I have to explain some things to you." Once seeing the slow nod from the dog she slowly grabbed her trunk and walked towards a small tunnel a little ways away from the playground. Not before telling the dog to follow her.

While walking she became fully aware of the dangers of her actions. She just gave a potentially dangerous escaped convict a weapon along with turning her back towards said convict. Having run through all the possible out comes from simple as death to the horrible reality of rape she now had to contended with. Praying to whatever deity that would listen that she wouldn't regret her actions she stopped halfway through the barely lit tunnel turning around to face the tip end of the holly wand sitting directly between her eyes. Following the arm connected to said wand to the grim face Sirius Black.

"Start explaining and give me one good reason as to why I shouldn't kill you now." Sirius stated fiercely and with all the power of a pure-blood wizard. She began to scramble and thing of the best thing to help convince Sirius because even she understood how crazy of a story this all sounded. After seeing Sirius losing his patience it came to her having remembered the "training" in mind magic that Harry experience in the books with Severus.

"How good are you at Legilimency because this will make it both easier and faster than a long explanation that you may very well not believe in the first place." said Harry as calmly as possible, which was remarkable given the amount of internal fear she was fighting down on the inside, fighting to both keep her voice even and her features as non threatening as possible.

"Excellent, it was a skill James and Lily and I practiced numerous times, believed it help us to gain information during the war." said Sirius who was calmly regarding the young women in front of him well aware of the features that reminded him of the closest friends he had. But never letting his guard down.

"Then I need you to read my mind so you fully believe I am who I say I am and know you are innocent. Then perhaps you could help me figure out the hell is going on with me." replied Harry

After several long moments Sirius replied back "Very well, but if you are lying I will not hesitate to make you suffer." At seeing her nod he whispered Legilimens and began the process of shifting through the memories of the person before him. After the process that took longer than thought because of the dual memories that needed to be sifted through, seeing the life lived through both "Harry's" as it where left the man to break down and hug his now goddaughter fiercely.

After several long moments of quiet sobbing and from the man and shushing noise from the woman Sirius began to calm down. Pulling back and regarding the young woman in front of her he finally spoke, " I don't care that your not the Harry that was born of this world or the change in sex you are still my Harry and I will help you as best as I can."

For the first time since she had woken up she allowed herself to break down. The full weight of her situation finally hitting with full force. Collapsing into Sirius she cried over everything. The times in Harry's life both prior and after going to Hogwarts, the built up emotions of realizing what she lost. The realization that she will never meet her previous friends or family ever again for the foreseeable future. The fact that this wasn't some elaborate dream finally settling. More importantly upset over the idea of taking away the potential life of the young boy who's reality she now was undoubtedly involved with.

Sirius just held Harry as she sobbed and spoke all her scrambled thoughts. Telling here that it was alright and soothing the girl who was obviously holding in so much pain. Perhaps more than what would be natural considering the two different lives she has apparently experienced. Finally once Sirius got her to calm enough he spoke in a soft voice.

"It's going to be okay, I promise that I wont abandon you just because magic has decided to cause a miracle with you. This is all new to me as well but I promise we will try and get through this together."

"Thank you" whispered Harry as she whipped her face and finally calmed enough to be let go by Sirius.

"Now lets figure out what we are going to do. Since I am still on the run I can't do much so for the most part you are on your own. But I will try and guide you whenever I can. Your plan with Gringotts is good, make sure you state your name as well as request an inheritance test to prove who you are. This should help with both the goblins and the Ministry as far as legally. The hard part will be your friends and the public itself." explained Sirius

"That's what I was hoping for. As it stands I'm expecting the backlash of the boy who lived becoming the girl who lived to quite bad. Press will have a field day and I'm not optimistic enough to hope I can keep friends because of this. This excludes the problems with the enemies I already have and the pressure of now being a girl loosing the "power" I once had." stated Harry while using her fingers to air quote when saying power. While also thinking about how to make sure it doesn't look as if she is going to be aware of how certain things happen.

"Ah that's the beauty of the inheritance test, since you are old enough you can claim Lordship and become independent. Plus since you where born a boy regardless of the fact you are now a girl the Ministry only option is still regard you as the political power of the males." said a laughing Sirius obviously thinking this in regards as some massive prank now. "Unfortunately I may have inadvertently caused you more trouble because I am both infertile and named you my heir. As it stands you may have to marry multiple people." said Sirius who was now etched with a look of worry.

"Well that's certainly better, but what about marrying because no offense but I'm still into girls. Changing the physical parts didn't change my preference at all." a entirely disgusted Harry imagining the thought of being with a man. While also realizing just how hard things will be because of being into what is now considered the same sex. "As for the marrying multiple people, if that is necessary I will handle that when the time comes. I'd rather focus on the now and worry about the troubles I will face in regards to my love life later."

"Well I'll say there will be a plenty of young boys who will be mighty upset with that fact and a few girls who may be very happy if only looks were anything to go by." stated Sirius who was really enjoying the massive blush that was no sported on the girls face "That being said though its not that common in the wizarding world, it is also not as backwards when it comes to same sex relationships. You may get some narrow minded individuals like that with blood status, but overall nothing will be said. Though you shouldn't hold off on dating too long, never know could date multiple people at once" stated Sirius with a Cheshire grin.

Fully happy with the prospect of not being forced into marriages with people such as Draco was one less worry to be had. Though the thought of a difficult task of finding someone who would be interested in her let alone multiple will be difficult that is for sure. Coming back to attention to Sirius she realized he was staring intently at her. At her curious expression he decided to explain what he was thinking.

"You know you really do have Lily's eyes, but unlike the photos I have seen of you before you now look much like your mother did in school. Except for the hair you definitively got that from James." explained Sirius. This was the first time she really thought about her appearance. She had obviously examined her body among waking up and would defiantly describe herself as having a moderate bust size and a curvy figure. But never really thought about how her facial features looked. Upon looking herself in a small puddle on the ground she realized she really did look like Lily from the photos she had seen when packing.

"Well that will defiantly be different considering everyone usually say I look like my father aside from the eyes. Perhaps this will be a decent change of pace." Once looking closely at her face she realized something was missing, that was until she looked herself in the eyes and realized she wasn't wearing glasses. "Sweet Merlin I didn't even realize I could see without glasses!"

"I thought something was missing but you defiantly are better of without them. They can only hold you back and would only mare your natural beauty." said a Sirius who was thoroughly enjoying embarrassing his goddaughter.

"Yea yea flattery will get you nowhere" said Harry once fighting down the blush. "Now you really should go before someone finds you, I would hate to be the reason your kissed."

"I will and you be careful and try to keep your head held high, stick to that plan of your and hopefully the crazy will pass fast." said while hugging Harry one last time before quickly changing and running in the opposite direction than where they came.

After staring off to where Sirius left Harry looked at her watch and realized it was close to five in the morning now and better hurry off if she was to get to Gringotts without any trouble. Quickly grabbing her trunk and wand and hurrying to the street she raised her wand much like Harry did in the third book to call the Knight Bus. Steeling herself for the crazy journey that she was about to fully experience and wondering how in the hell she was going to survive.

It didn't take long for the Knight Bus to pop into existence in all it's glory. The thing look just as the book had described but she was once again reminded that she really is in another world. With all it's amazing facets of life both good and bad that left her both excited and terrified. Realizing she was standing there staring dumbfounded at the bus and the impatient man staring at her she picked up her trunk and walked forward.

"Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. My name is Stan Shunpike, and I will be your conductor for this evening." recited Stan before looking up and staring at her. "Well come on then lets not wait for the grass to grow."

"Sorry this is just the first time I have seen the bus, I've only heard stories before." wile trying to make sure her scar was covered. She realized it would be better than to bring too much attention to herself yet and the scar was a dead giveaway as to who she was.

"Well come on then in!" Exclaimed Stan. Harry went to reach for her trunk when Stan jumped forward saying "No no no, I'll get this you get in." While lifting the trunk with a great effort. It took all she could not to laugh outright at his outrageous face and stance but all that did come out was a tiny giggle. Then pausing to realize that yep she just giggled, this was defiantly going to take some getting used to. It wasn't that she was out rightly trying to do things like play with her hair, straighten her clothes self consciously or now the added giggle. It just happened as if they where natural ticks she had all her life. It was like relearning everything about yourself while trying to learn about the outside world as well. She had a headache already just thinking about it.

Walking into the bus whole avoiding the still sleeping wizard she walked towards the front of the bus. Sitting on the bed once she had her ticket and bracing herself for the rough ride ahead she focused out the front window to keep herself from hurling up whatever food was in her stomach.

"What did you say your name was again?" asked Stan

"I didn't" she replied trying her best to keep that damned scar hidden from the man least he figure out who she was supposed to be.

"Well where about's are you heading?"

"The Leaky Cauldron please." Harry said deciding that it was better to remain nice in hopes to prevent the strange man from continuing to talk to her.

"You hear that Ern, The Leaky Cauldron" stated Stan

The creepy doll in the front started talking "The Leakey Cauldron, Hey! If you have the pea soup make sure you eat it before it eats you!" while cackling madly. It was a truly weird moment and the experience itself was surreal because here she was experiencing the exact same thing Harry would have in the third book. Only this time it was before Marge could show up and before the accidental magic scare. That also meant avoiding the damnable Minister who wasn't worth the trouble to deal with.

After the very eventful ride that surprisingly went exactly like the book went, with the old lady and all they finally showed up at there destination. After paying them and watching the bus leave she walked into the pub at a leisurely pace. This was both to avoid dragging attention to herself as well as because she was at awe with what she was seeing. She was really here, in the pub that connected to Diagon Ally where it is technically where she got her first taste of the magic world. Well in regards to the male Harry anyways because she felt as if she was experiencing it all over again.

She didn't want to stand there and look stupid gawking at the place so she decided to go ahead and get the room she needed for the foreseeable future as well as get a good meal in before the hectic day she was indeed going to be having. When asked by Tom the bartender what to reserve the name under she said "Lily Evans" at his strange look she realized her mistake but just gave him the most innocent and hopefully charming smile that she could. She knew keeping her identity a secret for now was important but she really could have picked a better name then her deceased mother's. Although the strange look he didn't say anything and after paying for a breakfast decided to sit down and go over everything she needed to do.

Thinking to herself Harry started with how she was currently where she was. She honestly couldn't think of anything as to why she was here and why she was a girl. The only thing she could think of is how multiplication worked in math. Two negative numbers make a positive, but she highly doubted it worked that way in regards of a person. She really could not wrap her head around why a male, regardless if it was the original person to host the body or the person that now inhabits the body, was now a female. She really didn't think magic could work that way.

Regardless she just decided to believe magic worked and strange ways and had decided that Harry was indeed going to be a female, as well as be a complete different person then who was supposed to be here. She had always believed in the idea of their being unlimited different realities, but that still didn't explain why she was here. Harry also wondered what happened to "the" Harry, was he where she was supposed to be? It was really nerve racking and she decided to hell with it and just live the new life. She may have been from a different reality, she may have once been a male. This didn't change the fact that she was now here, as a woman, and there was nothing she could do about it. Might as well stop bitching and move on.

This brought her back out of her small trance and back to why she was in the Leaky Cauldron. She needed to head to Gringotts to get the ball rolling to make sure she was safe. She could contemplate the theories as to the why's later. Once finished with her meal she quickly left towards Gringotts. Marveling in all the sights she was seeing as she went through Diagon Alley. Being careful to not look like a tourist with wide eyes at everything she was seeing. As it was she was barley keeping control of her emotions as is.

Inside Gringotts was just as awe inspiring with how well designed everything was. But that didn't last long because she realized that the difficult task of dealing with the goblins was now about to come into play. She knew how hard it was to work with the goblins at times based on the books but she was really hoping that they could help her without much trouble. She really didn't need any more.

Walking up to a teller and trying to be as polite as possible she addressed the goblin before her. "Excuse me but I would like to discuss some issues I have as well as get some money from my vault."

"Name?" Said the Goblin

"That is part of the problem, I would like to do a inheritance test to prove who I am. I've recently gone through a ah…. physical change for want of a better word." she explained as delicately as she could.

"And what change makes it so difficult you can not simply give me your name?" asked a now agitated goblin who looked up from his work.

Deciding to forgo too much more beating around the bush she lifted up her bangs to show the scar on her head and said as quietly as possible while getting the point across to the goblin. "Well the change had me going from a male to a female, my name is Harry Potter." which caused the tellers eyes to bug and stay as wide as you would expect from a goblin who was surprised.

"I see… very well follow me, I will take you to the family account manager who will handle your business today." said the teller who was now leading Harry past the teller stalls towards the offices areas in the back. Passing under an archway along the way that after walking past had the goblin staring wide eye at her again. She could only assume it was used to prevent those under Disillusionment Charm and other appearance modifying magic from gaining entry into vaults that where not their own.

Finally being shown into the office she came in front of an obviously older goblin who was currently working on some paperwork on his desk. She waited patiently for the goblin knowing that it would help to be patient rather than pushy. She didn't want to get on the bad side of the goblins and not get the help she needed.

"You may have a seat Ms. Potter I am Master Steeltooth and I am the Potter Account Manager. Once we have proven who you are we will continue on wit business today. Am I to understand you wish to take the inheritance test?" asked the now named goblin who although words wore polite demeanor was anything but.

"Yes sir, I was hoping it could prove who I was as well as help me gain my titles so I can be emancipated. I'm well aware of the strangeness of me now being a female and would like to have my bases covered when, pardon me for saying, all hell breaks loose." said the now sitting Harry who was being sure to look the goblin in the eyes as much as possible. Hoping to be respectful to the goblin and not screw anything up.

"That is a wise decision, it is most strange for a wizard to change into a witch. It is not known how this is possible but you are correct in saying that it will prove who you are and protect you from the Ministry as well as allow you to continue to access your vaults." stated the goblin which was regarding her curiously. "Very well simply poke our finger with this blade and drop three drops of blood on this sheet. This will tell us who you are and what titles you have claim to." Said Steeltooth while passing an ornate dagger to Harry who immediately did as asked. She watched in awe as the blood began to morph and form words on the paper. A list appearing on the sheet under her name.

Holly Lily Potter (Formally Harry James Potter)

-Heir of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Potter

-Heir of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Black

-Heir of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Gryffindor

-Heir of the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Slytherin(by conquest)

The now renamed Potter just stared there looking over the list and realizing that this just got shit tones harder then it could have ever should have been possible. She really hoped she didn't have to marry five different people and seriously hoped that said people if necessarily could be women. She really didn't want to go down the road of dealing with men.

"Well, well you are very interesting indeed. Though I will hopefully put some problems to rest. Since you are still considered a male on record, even though physically a female, you are still required to marry one women for each name if you are to claim these titles. Therefore you will require a Lady for each title you own and you yourself will hold the title of Lord. The fact that it is magically recognized that there is a name change means nothing in regards to Lordship as well as the current physical sex." explained Steeltooth. He continued on to explain how to claim the Lordships along with what rights are gained from claiming said Lordship.

"Since you are of age to claim Lordship and can gain emancipation in the wizarding world from said Lordship I would recommenced doing so now before we continue on with our business. I must ask what titles would you like to claim?" asked Steeltooth who had become much more hospitable since the Holly's titles had been discovered. It was no surprise though considering goblins valued money and she had perhaps become their richest and most valued customer in a matter of minutes.

"Excuse my lack of talking but I was in shock of all the titles I do hold. Before I say I would like to ask if I claim the title can it be hidden until I decide to officially take up the political role or will it become knowledge immediately? I want to have my bases covered legally before this information does go public." asked Holly who was fighting to get over the shock of how much she was really work.

"All titles will be said to have been claimed on paper and the previous proxy will lose said votes in the Wizengomot. Other than that it is up to you to publicly claim said Lordships though you will be able to have access to said vaults and lands owned by each house." replied Steeltooth

After considering her options she realized that although this will bring more attention to herself in the long run the safety having this kind of pull both financially and politically was enough to push Holly into claiming all Lordships. But the problem would lie in having to find women that would be willing to be with a women, as well as willing to share her. This whole mess just kept getting better and better in her opinion. There wasn't really much she could do if she wanted to have the safety said titles held so she made her choice and can only hope it wouldn't bite her in the ass.

"I would like to claim all titles and would like to keep gaining said titles from public ears at this time." she stated which prompted the retrieval of each houses rings which would ultimately decide if the House magic would accept her. She decided to put the rings on one by one starting with the Potter family ring. When she put said ring on she felt a warm spread through her body as the ring sized to fight her right ring finger. Next was the Black family ring with as instructed put on the same ring as the Potter family ring. Once settled she felt the two rings combining and another strong warmth spread through her body. This repeated with every ring with the comforting warmth getting stronger and stronger with each ring. She knew it was the House magic accepting her and that it would also help with protecting her from some harm such as mind attacks but it was just enough to have the rings for her at this point.

"Congratulations Lady Holly Lilly Gryffindor-Slytherin-Black-Potter on claiming your Lordships and may every house prosper under your guidance." said Steeltooth with perhaps too much excitement, but he had reason because of this he would become one of the richest Gringotts employees around. Deciding to see this young women was indeed the smartest investment he had ever done.

"Now let us begin to discuss important documents that are related to each house. Two of which are particularly betrothal contracts. One to the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Greengrass with the house of Potter and one to the Most Ancient and Most Noble House of Davis with the Blacks. Both awaiting activation but not necessarily required at this time. Though it is suggested to speak about this towards both Houses before deciding anything." Well that was news certainly new, she knew nothing about any marriage contracts in the books so this was all news to her. Deciding to follow the advice and contact the individual houses prior to deciding was good advice. If she remembered correctly there was a Daphne Greengrass and Tracey Davis that where her age but really didn't know much other than both girls where gorgeous in their own right. But it wouldn't do to put both young women in a loveless marriage, especially if they were not into women in the first place. Only time will tell, perhaps they could slowly build up the friendship before anything else is set in stone.

Upon deciding and voice an agreement to Steeltooth, Holly decided to set for going through all the paperwork, finances, and lands owned with each house. After hours of signing papers, selling land, and buying stocks in both magical and muggle companies. One sore and tired Potter finally left Gringotts with new titles, a safety net when the news hits the public, and a pouch full of gold to buy new things. But all that could wait till she was fed and had a good nights rest because she had been in Gringotts all day and the sun was now going down. Yes a good bit of food and rest would do her brain some good. Maybe she would even wake up and this was all a strange dream. She highly doubted it but only time could tell.

Well that is the end of chapter 1. I hope you have enjoyed it and stick around for more. If people end of liking it a lot I will try to upload more often.

Also Hopefully the idea behind the story isn't too far fetched. The idea was to follow the original plot "for the most part" But with the added problems behind multiple marriages, social problems, on top of the characters sex being changed(Boy being turned into a girl) and learning how to live with that. Im hoping to use a reoccurring thing of Holly having difficulty's because of the mindset of being male conflicting with the female body and the gradual lessening of that mindset as well/

I hope that made sense?!

Later,
