My Enemy's Blood by Luna Phase

Summary: A young Harry is sent the letter from Hogwarts, with a mysterious guardian paying his tuition. His living circumstances remain largely unchanged as Harry continues to live with the Dursleys. Once at Hogwarts Harry meets the staff, among them is Severus Snape, the Potions Master, and the Defense Against Dark Arts professor, James Potter.

Challenge Rules

• Harry's last name remains Evans.
• Lily is still very dead
• The relationship between James Potter and Lily Evans should be left up to the writer.
• Snape is Harry's Head of House. This does not have to be Slytherin or Gryffindor. A good sorting is always fun.
• Harry knows next to nothing about the history between his mentor, his father, and his dead mother.
• How the overall interactions of a living James Potter and a Harry Evans contributes to Harry's apprenticeship is up to the writer.
• James Potter may or may not have known about Harry's existence.
• Extra Credit if Grindelwald can be worked into the story without removing Voldemort as the arch-evil.
• Characterizations fascinate me. If the author is up to the challenge, I'd like to see these circumstances made to work with the canon personalities.
• Please, no bashing of any characters.
