Well, this is just a little idea I want to get out of my head.
What if Voldemorts attack didn't just backfire like in canon. Instead it actually stole half of harry's soul, gave it to Voldemort and enabled him to survive his rebounding spell as a ghost of sorts.
Since his soul is now imcomplete, young Harry's magical core tries to find a way to fix his soul and it finds one by stealing the souls of other people. Through eye-contact over a certain amount of time, he is able to rip someones soul out of their body.
Sadly that won't help him, since he didn't do any dark rituals which would have allowed him to actually eat those souls. So all the people who die by having their soul stolen, stay near him, strangely bound to him and unable to leave.
Also there is only one person that is safe from his eyes. His aunt. She is protected by the blood magic that keeps harry safe.
Actually the thought of young Harry ripping out the greater part of Dudley's soul, which makes the remaining Dudley just plain evil and leaving Harry with a sort of good consience named Dudley II sounds strangely amusing. :evil:
Well, what do you think? Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
