    Summary

    When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

    Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

    Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!

    Summary

    It was the year 1998, and Wizarding Britain was finally beginning to heal from the wounds of the devastating war. Auror trainee Harry Potter was leading his first field operation when he was struck by a Killing Curse. This led to an unexpected encounter with Death, who revealed to Harry that he could turn back time to remedy his deepest regrets.

    Unbeknownst to Harry, dark wizarding activities were erupting across Britain, threatening to shatter the fragile peace once more. But who was behind these sinister plots? What were they trying to accomplish? Was it too late to stop them?

    Perhaps all the answers lay where Harry was headed...

    This is a journey of family, friendship, self-discovery, and, as always with Harry Potter, a healthy dose of world-saving.

    Inspired by Tsume Yuki's "Time to Put Your Galleons Where Your Mouth Is" and with her expressed permission, this is the author's fiction re-imagined.
