Why am I here?
Harry opened his eyes, his head throbbing with pain, he was lying on the floor in a very bright white room.
He got up and saw two figures in front of him, shorter one looked all grey, even her skin seemed greyish, she had long hair, and there was something around her like smoke or fog, she was holding a scythe in her hand and leaning on it and the second one looked quite normal, only her hair was as if sprinkled with stars, her eyes looked as if they had a galaxy in them and there was a starry aura around her and in her hand she had something that looked like a feather with ink flowing from it.
Then all the memories from last night came back to him.
"am I dead?" He asked because it was the only thing that came to his mind.
"oh no my dear, you're alive" The taller one replied, laughing softly.
"where are we, who are you?" Why am I still alive? It flew through his head but he didn't say those words.
"We are in your head. I am Fate and this is Death. And you're alive because what happened yesterday shouldn't have happened, you tricked fate again Harry." She said it like it was the most normal thing in the world.
"When you were a baby you were supposed to die, but you tricke me and death Harry, and yesterday you did it again, the first time was already difficult, I had to rewrite the whole history, I planned a whole new life for you and for everyone affected by it, Death had to make a completely new plan of who to take and when, you were supposed to collect the Deathly Hallows and become the master of death, but you tricked us again, you were supposed to become the master of death from the moment you tricked us for the first time, it was supposed to be activated when you collected all the hallows, but it was written in your fate, and it is still there Harry, I can't take it back anymore according to your fate you are the master of death so I can't let you die, you have to live but you changed your fate yesterday, so this time we want to have some fun" said Fate and smiled at Harry, Death bowed slightly and smiled too.
"wait what? What do you mean "lord of death"? How did I trick you? What do you mean you want some fun?" Harry asked confused.
"we are in your mind now Harry, but your body is in December 1942, you tricked us twice Harry I don't know how but you did it we have to rewrite everything again and this time we want to have some fun" Death said
"what do you mean 1942? Why? Why am I in the past?" Harry asked, his head starting to hurt more and more
"you're here because you couldn't die and we want some fun, you're at Hogwart now, while Tom Riddle is in his fifth year, he hasn't created any horcrux yet, so you can stop him from doing that, and we can help you, after all you are the master of death and you tricked fate twice, so you have my respect too" Fate said
"tom Riddle? The younger version of Voldemort? Wait, what are horcruxes?" Harry asked, it was all too much for him, he wanted to take a break from it all
"yes younger Voldemort, and horcruxes are things that have a piece of the soul of the person who created them, Voldemort from your time created 7 of them, you destroyed one when you were in your first year, the diary, you were supposed to destroy them and defeat Voldemort" said fate
"but I wanted to kill myself and that won't happen again, right?..." He asked, he had ruined everything again, he had let everyone down again.
"yes but don't worry my dear with our help you will make a new history, show me your hand" said Death
Harry looked at her skeptically but offered her his hand, she grabbed his wrists, on one, just below where the wounds should be now, the sign of the Deathly Hallows appeared, and on the other, in the same place, the sign of infinity appeared, one sign belonged to death and the other to fate
"we will always be in your mind, we will not integrate unless you ask us or we find it necessary, also you should know that you can spend as much time here as you want and the time outside your mind won't move" Death said
"We will also help you with school matters, so if you have the slightest problem in understanding something, it will simply pop into your head, although I have a feeling that it may not be necessary, you are a smart child Harry, one who has strong magic, it's just that no one has ever helped you use it, but now that will change, now come on harry we'll show you everything you think you know before you wake up" Fate finished.
Harry simply sighed and nodded, he knew that now he would have to come to terms with the fact that he would be with the person he hated most in the world in the same year.
"What do I need to know?" Harry finally asked.
"everything about what you had to experience until the end of Hogwarts before you decided to change your fate, everything about Tom Riddle that might be useful, you have to know how to stop him, but we will not decide for you Harry we will give you information but what you do with it is your decision" Fate said.
Harry simply nodded and followed them.
