Prologue:

As Lord Voldemort quickly ascended the stairs after stupifying James Potter, he tried to fight the enchantment placed upon him by that manipulative old fool Dumbledore.

"No!" he thought as he was moving closer to the children's bedroom. As he opened the door with a small creak he soon stood face to face with none other than Lily Evans Potter.

"Stand aside woman", He said, in his mind that phrase was pleading and desperate.

But in reality it sounded cold and threatening.

"No, Please take me instead, I'll do anything just don't hurt my babies!" Lily pleaded thrusting herself between Voldemort and the crib that held both 1 year old boys.

"I see," he coldly stated,"I gave you a choice now you must pay the consequences", and with a flick of his wand Lily Evans Potter was thrown across the room smashing into the wall awakening both boys, who were oblivious to the fact that a powerful, possessed wizard was being forced to kill them.

As Lord Voldemort approached the crib he said, "I'm sorry, but I can't fight it anymore, forgive me. AVADA KADAVRA!".

But instead of the curse killing both boys, Harry's magic made the curse rebound onto Voldemort destroying his body and spilling a piece if himself onto Harry. The force of the blast knocked both boys against the wall. A piece of the broken crib hit Harry's twin brother William, creating a crescent moon shaped wound that would soon become a scar on his cheek. While Harry had a lightning shaped wound that in time would turn into a scar hidden under his bangs.
