FIC: Nose to the Wind ~ Harry Potter ~ Harry/Voldemort ~ Teen ~ Ch 9/27

Title: Nose to the Wind
Series: Like a Ghost in My Town
Fandom: Harry Potter
Author: Batsutousai
Rating: Teen
Pairing: Harry Potter/Lord Voldemort, James Potter/Lily Potter
Warnings: AU, violence, universe hopping/rebirth, Dark!Harry, werewolf!Harry, underage relationship (ish)
Summary: While Harry had been content with his second chance, that didn't keep him from thinking what he could have done different, how many people could have survived if he hadn't been set on the very specific path he'd walked. Third time is the charm, though, right?

A/N: There is a bit of a time hop at the start of this chapter, because most of the stuff I have planned needs a little more time to pass.

I'm crying, just a little. For those confused about how/when Dumbledore died, that was back in chapter three. :') His death officially ended the war. (This is Voldemort we're talking about; he's not the type to leave his foe trapped in prison. *throws so much shade on the dead* XD)

For ages at the start of this chapter, Harry is turns 9 during the first paragraph. (Will is 7 and Chris is 5.)
