    Summary

    “Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!”
    “Stand aside, you silly girl… stand aside, now”.
    And Lily Potter stepped aside.
    Voldemort stared at her.
    “... Is this some sort of trick?” he asked softly.
    “No". Her voice was flat, lifeless. “You already killed James... If you let me live, then you can have Harry”.
    Voldemort’s lip curled - not in amusement, but disgust. His own mother had died for him. Pathetic, yes, sentimental and foolish - but she had chosen to die so that he could live. Lily Potter wasn’t even choosing to care. Surely the child of prophecy deserved a better mother than this! Even he could give the boy to a better family to be raised right!
    Voldemort slowly reached down and picked up the child.
    He was still staring at him. He was still oddly silent. His eyes were still the colour of the Killing curse and brimming with power.
    Yes, Voldemort decided, that was exactly what he’d do.
    "You belong to me now" he whispered.
    And with a crack like thunder, he turned on the spot, vanishing into the night.

    Or, the one where Harry Potter is raised by the Lestranges and it goes more or less how you would expect.

    Summary

    Harry Potter was never meant to survive - let alone disappear.
    When he returns to the wizarding world years after being presumed dead, everyone expects a saviour. Instead, they find a boy with bright Killing curse eyes, an innate understanding of Dark Magic and runes, and teeth far too sharp for comfort.
    But power always recognises power, and Harry finds himself being pulled - inevitably, irresistibly - toward the two men who wield it best.

    Or, "You think you're clever, don't you?" Severus said, though without the bite he usually reserved for such remarks.
           Harry tilted his head, a wry smirk on his blood red lips. “I think I’m clever enough... Say hi to your husband for me."

    Summary

    Was it fate? Or the work of a skilled puppet master? The actions of the Dark Lord going after the Potters were his own, but his state of mind may have been tempered with much earlier. Ironically, it is the Dark Lord’s vanity leading to him inadvertently uncovering a plot that has left him insane for decades. What will a sane Lord Voldemort do?

    Meanwhile, Harry is learning new things, staying in Regulus’ room after the dementor incident, that has left him expelled for now. Should he win his trial, he will have to re-enrol. What more will he learn should he be placed in Slytherin the second time around?

    Warning: This is a work in progress and may never be finished. Expect very slow and sporadic posting of new chapters.

    Summary

    Harry Potter had never heard of the lost Malfoy child, even though his story is tied to his own. On the day that Harry lost his parents, the Malfoys lost Draco’s twin brother. He disappeared the very night, the Dark Lord attacked the Potters, never to be seen again – until an old magic failed and it turns out: Harry Potter was a mere façade hiding an eerily familiar face.
