OK, so this is a story that has been swimming in my brain for awhile and I decided to type out the first chapter to see if anyone likes the idea. Now, I know there are a lot of Though The Veil stories with Harry and Co, but I am hoping that mine is different than most.

I will only move on to the next chapter after I have five reviews, just saying.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. If I did Snape, Remus and Sirius would all be alive and so would Borimir, Haldir, Theoden and Theodred.

Through The Veil- A Different World

Chapter 1- A New Beginning

Hogwarts- After The Final Battle

In the fields of Scotland, where a majestic castle once stood, lay hundreds of lifeless bodies. Bodies of old men and young teenagers, men and women, Light and Dark Wizards alike. Only two beings were still alive, a young raven haired, emerald eyed teenage boy, and an immortal fire bird.

The teenager let out a chocked sob, having just awoken from magical exhaustion to remember that he is the last magical human in all of the Untied Kingdom. The Dark Lord Voldemort had used a dark spell that went very wrong. The spell was only supposed to target a specific group of people the caster wished, in this case all those possessing the traits that Lord Voldemort hated, he was not careful enough and the spell killed all magical people within the U.K.. The young man only survived because his sheer magical strength, his magic created a strong shield around him, draining his magical core. This young man's name is Harry James Potter.

"Oh, Fawkes, what am I going to do?" Harry questioned brokenly. The phoenix let out a comforting trill and took flight, he used his tail to signal Harry to grab hold. "Where will you take me?"

The only response was a shake of the tail. Harry gingerly took hold of the feathers, expecting them to be hot, he was pleasantly surprised to find them warm not hot. Without a second glance Fawkes burst into flames that covered both he and his charge. When the flames cleared, both were gone from the battlefield.

Department of Mysteries

Deep under the streets of London, in the now deserted Ministry of Magic, deep within the department of mysteries, was a room shaped like a coliseum. In the middle of this room, on a raised dais is an arch with a curtain that flutters with a non-excistant wind. Suddenly a large flash appeared leaving Fawkes and Harry behind when it faded. Harry looked around him and saw The Veil, he understood what Fawkes wished for him to do.

"Will this give me peace?" Harry asked desperately. After the event at the end of fifth year, when Sirius, Remus and Snape fell through the Veil, Harry and Hermione had done all possible research on the Veil.

Flashback

Sirius, Remus, Snape and Harry all stood on the raised dais. Sirius and Remus were back to back with Harry and Snape respectively. Sirius and Remus were dueling Bellatrix Lestrange while Harry and Snape battled Augustus Rockwood. Suddenly Snape shoved Harry off of the platform just before a purple spell enveloped the other three and blasted them backwards through The Veil.

It took the combined strength of Kingsley and Mr. Weasley to hold him back and keep him from following.

"NO!"

End Flashback

Harry and Hermione had spent the next month searching the Hogwarts Library and the Black Library at Grimmauld Place for any information on the Veil.

Flashback

"I found it!" Hermione said excitedly as she rounded the corner coming back to the table.

"What does it say?" Harry asked with a little hope. Instead of answering she slid an open book across the table. Harry looked down and began to read;

The Veil

The Veil was originally named the Executioner's Veil. Though it was later discovered that it was falsely named, for those who fall through do not die.

Harry's eyes had widened when he read this.

The Veil was built around a rift between worlds. If you fall through you are taken to an alternate plan of existence. Though no one knows what is on the other side. For once you step through, there is no returning to this side.

"So Sirius, Remus and Severus are alive then," Harry mumbled to himself. "After Voldy's gone I will join them. There is nothing left for me here."

"Then I will come as well," Hermione said determinedly. "You are all I have left. And if you think for one second I will let you go to an alternate world without me then you are insane."

The two smiled at each other. The first real smiles they had given since that night at the Ministry.

End Flashback

As the memory faded from his mind, and tears streaking his face, Harry James Potter stepped though The Veil, into a new world, with Fawkes following not even a moment latter.

Okay. Read and Review.
