Itachi Uchiha, a prodigious ninja, former child soldier, and reluctant mass murderer, carried the weight of a devastating past. His heroic sacrifice, or perhaps melodramatic demise, had promised peace. Instead, fate, in its cruel jest, delivered reincarnation as Harry Potter's older brother.

A new world unfolded, a new body inhabited, yet the specter of his past remained. Gone was his chakra, the agonizing clan feuds mercifully silenced. His Sharingan, however, persisted, a dormant power, a hidden reserve—to be unleashed only during magical emergencies (or excessive Quidditch commentary).

Hufflepuff, the house of unwavering loyalty and resilience, became his haven. An ex-ANBU captain, perpetually weary, navigating a boarding school teeming with volatile adolescents, whimsical enchantments, and fiercely competitive wizarding chess matches, he sought only tranquility. His younger brother, Harry, three years his junior, a vibrant, affectionate whirlwind of excitement, idolized Itachi and clung to him relentlessly.

Itachi's aspirations were simple: academic success, safeguarding his vulnerable sibling, and the resolute avoidance of bloodshed. He yearned for a connection with Nymphadora Tonks, a vibrant and unpredictable metamorphmagus, but dreaded the prospect of revealing his tormented soul.

Destiny, it seemed, possessed a penchant for unexpected twists. And Tonks, with her chaotic energy, was equally unpredictable.
