FIC: Nose to the Wind ~ Harry Potter ~ Harry/Voldemort ~ Teen ~ Ch 17/27

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: For those interested, the deleted scene from last chapter can be found here on tumblr.

I very much did not want to write the start of the fourth scene this chapter. I procrastinated for something like two weeks before finally sitting down and forcing myself to write it. And it's a complete crack fest, but it's what you're getting. With any luck, you'll at least get a giggle out of it?

For ages at the start of this chapter, very little time has passed, so Harry is still 15. (Hermione is 15, Will is 14, and Chris is 11.)
