    Title: A Different Start: The Power of the Stone
    Author: The Omakeer
    Rating: M
    Genre: Action/Adventure
    Pairing: H/T H/Other
    Status: WIP
    Summary: AU Darker retelling of the Harry Potter Saga. The World believes Lord Voldemort to be dead. The truth is he's trapped. His Soul Maically bound... to Harry Potter's
    Link: Link

    A WIP I found about a month ago, and I thought I would share. Goes very in-depth about the many original concepts. Currently, it's being rewritten, aparently the author didn't like where the fourth chapter was going, so he is revising it.

    I remember reading the original story. The author is qute talented and can write some nice scenes with great character interactions with just a touch of humor. Not quite sure about the new version, seems a bit mushy with Voldemort and Sirius getting along for Harry's sake. I preferred the old story especially in how he revealed Voldemort.

    I think the story is well written, but Voldie is too soft, he's nothing compared to what he has done.

    Yeah, I don't get why he changed it to this. I really don't.

    I think it comes throigh the bond to Harry and i think its ok, he has made a timejump from 4 years but he mentioned it not directly. Through you can get really confused, and then the thing with this potion to see Voldemort, he should have explained it more.

    Mhm...maybe I write a Review and say these things, then comes the next rewrite and we all are happy :D

    I read the entire three chapters and i am going: WTF IS THIS?!

    Voldemort is all nice, and most of the third chapter is filled with Harry being all cute and cuddly and stupid shit like that. Damn, what a waste of time. I am never going to get that 2 hours back... :x

    The original had it better, at least I think.

    Hmmm... not bad... too bad that the author hasn't written anything in about 2 years.
    does anyone know where I can find a copy of the original? Also, were there more chapters in the original?

    Fic no longer exists on the Author's profile and it lists him as having only Teen Titans stories. I have three chapters in the archives, would be surprised to see any more show up. Given reaction of those who have read it above and the fact it was posted before the ability to vote, perhaps this story should be reconsidered?
