What could be the reasons for Harry breaks away from Dumbledore in fanfiction?

One possible reason could be that Harry has discovered something about himself or his past that he thinks Dumbledore might not approve of or might try to stop him from exploring further. For example, if he found out some dark magic connection in his family history that he wants to understand on his own without Dumbledore interfering.

One reason could be fear. Maybe Harry discovers something about Dumbledore in the fanfiction that makes him scared, like a hidden agenda. Another reason might be to protect Dumbledore. Harry could think that by hiding from him, he is keeping Dumbledore away from some sort of danger that is related to Harry himself. Also, it could be due to a misunderstanding. Harry might misinterpret something Dumbledore does or says, and as a result, decides to hide from him.

One possible reason could be that Dumbledore believes he is acting in Harry's greater good. Maybe he thinks that by taking certain items from Harry, he can protect them from falling into the wrong hands. For example, if Harry has a powerful magical artifact that Voldemort desires, Dumbledore might steal it to keep it safe.

Well, in this kind of fanfiction, Dumbledore himself would be the main antagonist since the title implies that he is the one 'breaking' Harry. He would be acting against Harry's well - being and goals.

Perhaps there are safety concerns for the students that Dumbledore is not addressing adequately. Harry, having a strong sense of responsibility for his fellow students, may feel that the only way to ensure their safety is to remove Dumbledore from his position. He might believe that Dumbledore's actions or inactions are putting the students at risk, and thus he takes matters into his own hands.

Well, it could be that Harry has a different view on how to handle the war against Voldemort. Dumbledore is often very strategic and sometimes keeps things from Harry for what he believes is the greater good. But Harry might think that full transparency is necessary. Also, Harry may have formed new alliances or friendships that give him different perspectives, and these new ideas conflict with Dumbledore's. He might feel that Dumbledore's approach is too old - fashioned or risky in a new context.

One common theme is self - discovery. Harry has been under Dumbledore's guidance for so long that when he breaks free, he has to figure out who he really is without that influence.

Perhaps in fanfiction, Harry runs away from the Dursleys because he discovers a new threat that the Dursleys won't protect him from. He realizes that he has to take matters into his own hands and leaving is the only option. Also, he could be running away because he has made some new friends in the wizarding world who offer him a better alternative to living with the Dursleys.

One reason could be fear. Snape has always been rather intimidating to Harry. Snape's cold demeanor and his past interactions with Harry's father might make Harry feel constantly on edge around him. So, running away could be an instinctual response to this fear.

One possible reason could be a misunderstanding. Maybe Harry overheard something that made him think Dumbledore was planning something against him that he didn't understand. For example, if he heard Dumbledore discussing a dangerous mission for him without his full knowledge.
