Prologue: October 31, 1981

The potters were your average family if you consider magic average. The father James had just returned from a trip to the store to get some nappies for his one-year old son. As he entered the house he saw his son and wife in the sitting his son was zipping around on a little toy broom as his mother chased him trying to put him to bed as it was getting late. James chuckled at his wife's attempt to catch their son.

As Lily, for that was her name, heard James laugh she straightened up and you could see a bulge in her abdomen showing signs of about seven months' worth of pregnancy. She turned a glare on him "and what do you find so fun about your son terrorizing me on that toy broom your dog of a friend got him" she pretty much growls at him.

He was about to reply when suddenly there was an almighty shriek outside and they knew only one thing made that type of noise. Their wards had just been ripped to shreds James turned to Lily "take Harry and run for your lives." As he finished this comment the door the shudder as if struck with a battering ram. Lily turned and grabbed harry and took off upstairs to try and get away.

As Lily ran upstairs with their son James turned to the door and drew his wand to defend his family. Just as he was facing it the door burst in and there stood Voldemort no nose and red eyes. His raspy voice crocked out "give me the child and you can live."

"Never" was James only reply as he begins to cast spells at a fast pace but Voldemort was just as quick and raised a shield to deflect the spells away from himself. Then he went on offense and attacked with the killing curse as he cast James tried to dodge and summoned a small object which stopped the spell from hitting him but the force with which it struck the small trinket, a statue of a dog stag and wolf, it through him back into the wall and knocked him out cold.

The statue was not noticed by Voldemort or the few followers that were with him. So, figuring him dead they continued upstairs where Lily had taken the little nuisances, as Voldemort saw him as he approached the room he told his followers to remain behind that he could do this himself. As he enters the room he was bombarded with some quickly fired spells which he easily deflected them all. "move aside silly girl. There is no need for you to die." He rasped at her.

Her only response was "no you will not take him, not Harry." Then she stood directly in Voldemort's path to her son so Voldemort cast the killing curse at her. As she dropped so did a little stuffed snitch toy which was levitated in front of Lily which stopped most of the spell but not all. What little that got through only knocked her out though.

Upon seeing her fall Voldemort steps over the body of the fallen woman and approached the cot with the now crying child. Voldemort raised his wand and said "goodbye harry potter. Avada Kedavara" but some unseen force caused the spell to rebound from the child and back upon the caster destroying him instantly, but at the same time there was a bright flash and the child disappeared from the house.

Over near the small hamlet of Ottery St. Catchpole there is a haphazardly put together house that could only be explained to stay up as if held by magic. Inside this odd little house lived a rather wild bunch. For there were seven children between eleven years and two months old. All with vibrant red hair, the youngest, a girl, just starting to come in. the mother had just finished putting the youngest two down for the night and was heading to get the next two ready for bed, when suddenly there was a flash of light from her youngest room.

When she gets back to the room she finds two children laying in the cot looking at each other, giggling carrying on. One has bright red hair and brown eyes, her daughter Ginevra, the other was a dark hard boy with the brightest green eyes she had only seen one other place. That was at the one order meeting she went to after Gideon and Fabian had been killed while on assignment for the order. The person was one Lilly potter so once she saw the child's eyes she knew that this must be little harry potter, but she had no idea how he came to be here.
