One great 'Harry Potter Takes Control' fanfiction is 'The Power Within Harry' which shows Harry taking control of his destiny in a unique way. It has him making decisions that are different from the original story, like taking charge of his magical training earlier.
Well, in such a fanfiction scenario where the Horcrux takes control, it would be a total chaos. Harry, for instance, if under the Horcrux's control, could turn against his friends. His moral compass, which is usually so strong, would be distorted. The Horcrux might try to use Harry's powers for its own evil purposes, like trying to resurrect Voldemort in a more powerful form or causing destruction within Hogwarts. It would also create a great internal struggle within Harry as he tries to fight against the Horcrux's influence.
One interesting plotline could be Harry Potter taking control of Hogwarts' curriculum. He might introduce new and more practical magic courses. For example, he could start a course on modern magical defense against dark forces in the wizarding world today, which includes dealing with new threats like dark wizards using Muggle technology in their spells.
If Harry takes control, he would ensure the safety of all students. He has faced so many threats at Hogwarts, so he'd strengthen the security. He might set up new wards and have more regular patrols. And he'd be very strict about the Forbidden Forest, making sure students don't go there without permission.
One possible consequence is that the wizarding world would be in a state of confusion. The traditional boundaries between good and bad would be blurred, and many wizards might not know how to react. Some might fear Harry's new - found power over the Dark.
Obviously, Harry Potter is a main character as the title implies. But usually, his friends like Hermione and Ron are also likely to be important. They would be there to support Harry in his new role of taking control.
Well, in a 'Harry Potter takes control fanfic', it usually means that Harry Potter is portrayed in a more dominant or in - control role compared to the original series. Maybe he takes charge of situations earlier, or has more power over his destiny.
One of the best elements is seeing Harry's character growth. In many such fanfictions, he becomes more self - assured and decisive. For example, in 'Taking the Reins, Harry', he stops relying on others so much and starts to think for himself.
One significant event could be when Harry decides to leave Hogwarts temporarily to train with a reclusive but powerful wizard. This step shows his determination to take control of his magical growth and not be confined to the standard Hogwarts education. It's a big decision as it goes against the norm and he risks a lot, but it also gives him the opportunity to learn things that can help him better face Voldemort or other threats.
