Who could be the kidnapper in a 'Harry Potter kidnapped as a baby' fanfic?

It could be a rival faction. In the Rance universe, there are often different groups vying for power or resources. A rival faction might see Harry as a threat or an opportunity and kidnap him to gain an edge.

Well, one possibility could be that a dark wizard other than Voldemort kidnaps Harry. Maybe this wizard wants to use Harry's magic for his own evil purposes. He could take Harry to a hidden lair and try to train him to be evil from a young age. However, the wizarding world soon realizes Harry is missing and Dumbledore leads a search party to rescue him.

It could be Death Eaters who are still lurking in the shadows. They might see Hermione as a threat because of her association with Harry Potter and her strong stance against the Dark Arts. They could kidnap her to try and get information about Harry or to use her as bait.

It could be the well - known Team Rocket. They are always up to no good and kidnapping Pokemon for their own gain is right up their alley.

It could be a jealous rival from his past. Maybe someone he outperformed in a competition or a former acquaintance who has a grudge against him.

Well, it could be a secret organization that has been operating in the shadows. They might have some ulterior motive related to Naruto's power or his connection to the Nine - Tails. Maybe they believe that by kidnapping Naruto, they can control the Nine - Tails and use it for their own purposes. Another option is a jealous ninja from within Konoha. This ninja might feel overshadowed by Naruto's achievements and popularity and decides to kidnap him to get him out of the picture. Also, a powerful and ancient being awakened from a long slumber could be the kidnapper. They see Naruto as a source of energy or a key to something they desire.

It could be Vilgax. He has always been after the Omnitrix and kidnapping Ben 10 would be a way for him to get it.

It could be a group of rogue Death Eaters who think that kidnapping Harry would bring them back into Voldemort's good graces. They might take his glasses as a way to humiliate him, seeing Harry as the symbol of their defeat. They underestimate Harry's resourcefulness even without his glasses.

Perhaps a wizard from a foreign magical school who is jealous of Hogwarts' reputation and believes that by kidnapping Hermione, he can undermine Hogwarts. He may think that her abduction will cause chaos and damage the school's standing in the wizarding world. Also, it could be a magical being that has been corrupted by dark magic and views Hermione as a threat to its new - found power, so it takes her away.

I'm not entirely sure as 'fanfic' can vary greatly. It could be about Harry Potter being kidnapped in some alternate storyline created by a fan. Maybe it's a dark plot where Voldemort or some new villain has abducted Harry for their own evil purposes.
