Summary: At the Dursleys the summer after Sirius' death, Voldemort sends werewolves to attack Harry. Taken to Grimmauld Place by his rescuer, Severus Snape, Harry devises a disastrous plan to rescue Sirius from the veil, resulting in his being transfigured into a baby. Snape is the only one who can brew the potion to restore him, and is the only one to realize that Harry still retains his 16 year-old-mind. Over the summer and the first two potions which restore him to age eleven, Harry begins to feel that Snape is the only one who understands and can protect him. Is he right or has his deaging muddled his thinking? AU story for 6th year.

Story Notes:
So this is my first fanfic ever. Please leave some reviews; they'd be much appreciated. After reading AYLNO, I have been inspired to write. (Especially since AYLNO is complete, I'm sure to go through some withdrawals…) I'll try my best to keep my story in character and free of any Mary Sues. Oh and I should be updating frequently, my friend Nefla, pesters me daily to write.

So I tried to keep everyone in character… I know that I'm starting to change some personalities, but I hope that the transition is believable. If you have any suggestions please let me know… Oh and I must mention, I had a difficult time with Hagrid's dialect, so I need to give Nefla credit, she helped a lot.

Previously in HP and the F. Potion: Voldemort tries to get Harry. Snape rescues him. They're at Grimmauld Place. Harry goes a bit mad and is deaged. School starts. Bad stuff happens (mean DADA teacher, etc.). Harry and Snape start to get along better. Harry's having bad dreams/visions and wanders down to see Snape. One night, Harry's captured. Snape is caught as a spy. Lucius rescues Harry and Snape-resulting in his and Narcissa's death. A battered Snape and Harry floo/portkey to Grimmauld Place, with Draco along for the ride. Pomfrey checks them over, Harry seems to be "okay," but Snape's condition is grave...

23. Trust by Arualcopia [Reviews - 11] starstarstarstarhalf-star (6284 words) Printer

Sorry it's been so long since I updated. I'm in my senior year of college, taking all 400 level Biology courses, and working part time. I'd like to remind people that this story is pre HBP and ignores the cannon information we find out in it (for the most part). Also, I'd like to give a special thanks to Sunsethill; my ever faithful beta (took her one day to beta!!!). And my friend, Nefla for helping me hammer out a not-so-boring chapter, Syllva for all her input, and Solitare (Emrald Eyes)/Kailanyui for their support. I'm collecting quite the staff!

I'd write a summary of past events, but I'm too tired right now to do it, and I really want to post. Basically, Snape and Harry were tortured, escaped/rescued, and were brought back to Grimmauld Place. Harry had to pick a guardian, because the Dursleys are dead... he chose Snape...

Warning... there is a bit of a cliffy at the end of this chapter and I don't know when I'll have the time to update ... 2 more months in the quarter and then graduation, moving, new job (hopefully), etc. But I'll try to write whenever I can. BTW, in my HP universe, chocolate frogs come in a box.

25. Unreality by Arualcopia [Reviews - 14] starstarstarstarhalf-star (8508 words) Printer

It's been ages since I've updated, so if you can't remember what's happened in my story, here's a brief reminder:

Voldemort used a potion to control werewolves (the ferratilis potion) and sent them after Harry. Snape rescued him and brought him back to Grimmauld Place. There he discovered a dark artifact, put it on, and went crazy. In that state, he went to the Department of Mysteries to rescue Sirius from the veil only to be deaged to a baby. Afterwards, Snape took care of Harry, creating a potion to bring Harry back to his sixteen-year-old self. He was briefly five and went to his relatives only to discover they too were infected with the ferratilis potion, which was slowly killing them. Harry returned to school an eleven year old, and then was later aged to sixteen. He was captured in the hallway one night when he was on his way to see Snape. He was taken to Voldemort and tortured for four days before he and Snape were rescued by Lucius. Lucius and Narcissa were later killed, while Draco, Snape, and Harry escaped to Grimmauld Place. There, they recovered; Snape adopted Harry (and also gained custody of his godson Draco). Harry then fought with Draco, and was sent to his room. After a while of waiting for Snape to come, Harry decided to go find the man. First, he went to the bathroom and washed his face; there he heard an odd ringing in his ears, which turned to pain and he passed out. After that he looked for Snape only to discover a plate of chocolate frogs in the kitchen. He ate one and some of another, until he realized that they were poisoned. Meanwhile, Snape went to Harry's room to look for the boy, only to discover Harry was gone from Grimmauld Place...
