Instead of Harry Potter being the Boy Who Lived, the story follows a young Slytherin boy named Mattheo Riddle (surviving Voldemort's killing curse). Retelling of Philosopher's Stone with Mattheo Riddle as the Boy Who Lived. "They're toxic to each other - always have been. But they need each other at the same time. He found a family in her that he's never known before, not in any real way, and she calms him. And she needs him to hold her together - she tried to be everything for everyone and didn't learn how to be herself along the way". Mattheo Riddle - Raised as a muggle, new to magic, saved the world once. Artemis Bellator - know-it-all. Fighter. Overachiever. Mattheo's obsession. Lorenzo Berkshire - joker. Prankster. Loyal best friend. Never takes anything too seriously. Alfre Lancaster - no memory, super powered, confrontational attitude.
