An accident brings Harry back to the past. His body is altered, and all he has is his wits and Slytherin's locket around his neck. Harry Potter can no longer exist, but how will Harry Peverell survive when a pre-murderous Tom Riddle sets his sites on him? Rated for future dark themes.

Ron had just missed out on becoming Harry Potter's first real friend. Just how much can a girl who can speak to snakes change the course of the Light side forever? M for eventual chapters. Light/Dumbledore/Weasley bashing. Big AU changes, honestly don't read if you can't handle darker material, because that's where this story is heading. Warnings added ahead of chapters.
