Lilly Potter nee Evans was a desperate woman. Her husband was downstairs, fighting against the Dark Lord Voldemort and she knew he had no chance. Escape was impossible for her and her baby girl. She could not open the windows or apparate, in her stupidity she left the emergency portkey in the kitchen but she doubted it would be of any help at the moment. With a heavy heart, she only had one last hope, a forbidden ritual, Very dark Magic which she found in the Potter Family vault. Normally she would detest ever relying on Dark Magic and she knew Dumbeldore and the order would prosecute her for this but she did not care! Her daughter's life was on the line and she did not care how dark the magic she is about to use! She began drawing a magical circle and once the deed was done she started to charge it up with her magic. 3 things were in the center of the magical circle. A broken sword, blonde hair, and a gem that stored an incredible amount of magic, she could barely believe it when she found it. She still did not understand how such a powerful item was even created but according to the book it was necessary for the ritual.
For a moment she hesitated. She did not even know what exactly would happen. All she knew is that it could save her daughter. Her resolve was strengthened when she could hear the fight stop and her husband's body hit the floor. She continued with the ritual, hoping the Wards and barriers she put up would give her enough time. Suddenly the circle began to shine in golden light and radiated power that knocked Lilly down, she stood up nervously and looked at the Circle she was shocked when two golden figures started to appear from the circle. The light made it impossible to see anything and she had to avert her eyes. Only when the light was dissipated did she dare to look and what she saw shocked her.
Two people were standing in the center of the circle, both kneeling in front of her. They almost looked the same except for their clothing and the hair.
The Girl on the right was clothed in a very... VERY skimpy and revealing red outfit, and had messy blonde hair. In her hand was a large greatsword. The one to the left was dressed in a long flowing blue dress and her hair was styled into a tight bun. She was not carrying a sword but Lilly could make see something in her hand, but it was invisible and the only indication anything was there was the distortion around it.
"From the throne of Heroes, I answer. I am Servant Saber and here to serve my master" The two spoke in unison and Lilly just blinked confused.
Also, it seems the two only now realized the other was there and looked at each other. their eyes narrowed and they glared at each other.
"Ya got to be kidding me! I was summoned WITH YOU!? Oh, how wonderful!" Said the girl in red.
"I too, do not find this situation ideal. There are many Servants I would prefer to serve with." Said the blue one.
"Ahem... E-excuse me?" Said Lilly a little scared but, the two continued to glare at each other and ignored her, the two started to argue. Lilly narrowed her eyes.
"STOP ARGUING AND EXPLAIN WHO YOU ARE!" She really had no patience for this! Her Husband just got murdered and his murder was only minutes if not seconds away from her! At least the two stoped aguing and now looked at her.
"Excuse me, master. This bickering is unbecoming of two knights such as us. As for who we are... it's complicated but do tell did you not summon us? Should you not know whats going on?" Asked the lady in blue. Lilly just shook her head.
"No! I just found this book and instructions. I honestly don't care who you are as long as you do what I summoned you for... to protect my baby."
The two blinked and looked to the other side of the room. There're in a crib was a little girl. Both Women stood up to look at the sleeping child. Lilly was impressed that Morgan was still asleep.
"You summoned us to save her? No problem but... save her from what?" Asked the red... no Lilly could not call her lady.
"From the man who is here to kill her, who just now murdered my husband... please I-I don't care what it costs me! Money, my soul, all that I possess it doesn't matter! All I want is to save her!" Tears started to form in her eyes, and she started to panic when she could hear footsteps! Voldemort was near. Before anyone could react the door was blasted open, only now did the baby wake up and started to cry. A man, clad in a dark black robe came into the room. His face mostly hidden but the two servants could make out his demonic and inhuman appearance under his hood. In his hand, he was carrying a white, bone-like wand and had it raised at Lilly. The two summoned women escaped his notice.
"Step aside Girl! And I spare your life!" Spoke the man in a high pitched and just as inhuman voice as his face. Lilly put herself in front of her baby but before anyone could speak the man screamed in pain when his torso was impaled by a sword from behind. It was the girl in red.
"Sorry ballsack face but you will not harm my master ore her little brat. Not that you are much of a threat I mean seriously how did you NOT notice us?" Voldemort wanted to angrily retort but he got stabbed a SECOND time by the lady in blue.
"Perhaps it's the hood that hindered his field of vision? It does not matter. an evil abomination like you is fated to perish!" Suddenly her sword started to glow, Voldemort screamed in pain before his body seemed to combust in a small explosion that destroyed all the glass in the room. All that was left where his robes now dangling from the Swords and his wand.
"...Why is the only thing... where is?... OH GOD, THAT GUY WAS NAKED UNDER THOSE ROBES! URGH BLARG NO!" The Red girl holds her hands over her eyes, DESPERATELY trying to get that mental image of her mind.
"Modred this information I wish you had kept for yourself. Speak masters are you and the child unharmed?" Lilly nodded and took her baby into her arms to calm him down.
"Yes...yes we...we are unharmed...but wait...d-did you just call her Mordred?" A little scared did Lilly look at the woman who was named after the murderer of both King Arthur and Merlin. Mordred just rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, yeah I'm Mordred blah blah yeah I'm a girl we get it you're shocked. Jees why do I ALWAYS have to go through this shit?!" Lilly blinked until what Modred said sunk in.
"You're….you're THE Modred? T-The actual…" She now looked scared.
"It seems you truly do not know what we are Master, allow me to explain. We are Heroic Spirits, called upon by the Throne of Heroes... and while I do believe you heard many gruesome tails about my Daughter I can assure you she will not harm you. She has many faults but harming the innocent never was one."
"Geez, thanks, dad. At least you acknowledge I'm not a total bitch like mum" The Blue lady glared again at her daughter.
"Please stop speaking in this crude manner we are in the presence of our master AND A CHILD!"
"Wait wait...d-dad? Daughter?...i-I'm confused!" Lilly looked frantically between the two women. Modred started grinning.
"She's king Arthur ore rather Arthurian. My mum, Morgana, raped her after Merlin turned her into a futa so she could have a child with her actual Wife. She also was pretending to be a man" Lilly blinked while Arthuria blushed.
"That... is correct. But yes I am King Arthuria Pendragon. And this is my Daughter, Modred Pendragon. And what is your name master?" Lilly was once more... confused but she decided to deal with this nonsense later.
"I am Lilly Potter...and this is my Dauther Morgan" Morgan made some happy baby noises, which brought both Modred and Arthuria to smile.
"Ha She's a cute one... soooo what now? I can't sense a holy grail. How were you even able to summon us?" Asked Mordred. Lilly decided to ignore this talk about a Grail and showed the two the book she used.
"I found this Book in my husband's vault, together with the ingredients I used." Arthuria began looking through the Book.
"Hmm... seems to be a tome written by a skilled Magus…. hmm?" She looked at a note that was written on the last side. Ruhcik Hcterlez Gorniewhc. *sighs*" She let out a loud sigh and started to rub the bridge of her nose, having a good idea who was responsible for this, and for a moment she was certain she could hear that damnable vampire laugh.
"I... may know who wrote this Book. An old acquaintance of mine, even if I wish often that I never met him. But it seems this ritual permanently bound us to you as Servants. I don't know how exactly that's possible but with him, it's better not to question it. Now then Master Lilly how do we proceed? Who was this Deamon?"
Still holding Morgan in her arms, Lilly sat down on a small stool. "His name is Voldemort. He is or was terrorizing our world for over 10 years now…" She proceeded to explain the finer details of the Wizarding War and Voldemort's motives. But before anyone could respond the heard footsteps.
"LILLY?! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?!" Lilly's eyes slightly widen when she heard the Voice.
"S-Severus?" On cue, a man stepped into the frame of the door. He had unwashed black hair, a hooked nose, and was completely dressed in black. When he saw Lilly it seems like a big weight was lifted from him.
"You survived... I just now heard that the Dark Lord has found you! T-Then suddenly my mark started to burn and faded what happened and... who are those two." Severus looked suspiciously at the two Knights who just are as untrusting of him, they had their Swords ready. Lilly also looked at him with her wand in hand.
"First explain why are you so late? And where is the rest of the order?!" Severus looked confused at her.
"I don't know what you mean. Like I said I just heard that the Dark Lord would attack." Now Lilly started to frown.
"Dumbeldore said he placed multiple charms on the house that would go off if someone would forcefully enter and I doubt Voldemort would have been able to remove them without us noticing. And it took him some time to kill…. to…. to kill James and get through my own wards…" Now saddened, and nearly crying did she look to the ground, the reality of the fact that James is dead only now coming down to her. Severus looked conflicted for a moment before he spoke.
"If it is any consolation to you... he did not die in pain. I checked his body, no wounds or any lingering curses... it seems the Dark Lord was merciful enough to make his death quick and painless…. and as much as I hate to admit it I'm certain he gave it his everything to buy you enough time for whatever plan you had and it obviously succeeded. But what I find more worrisome is that the headmaster did not inform anyone in the order about those additional protections, Lilly….. I don't think the headmaster can be trusted" Now the 3 Woman perked up.
"Do tell why do you assume this? From masters' explanation, I was given the impression this Dumbeldore is the second coming of Merlin. A great leader of the Light is he not?" Asked Arthuria. Severus looked at her before he spoke.
"Yes, he is. But would a master of such a craft really take so long to notice me spying on him and the woman who gave the Prophecy? And after that not being able to prevent my escape? As you may know, I was the one who was foolish to inform the Dark Lord about the prophecy... and it always struck me as odd that Dumbeldore noticed me so late into the conversation. Or that he did not prevent my escape. Hogsmead was surrounded by an Anti-Apperation field at the time after all so he had more than enough time to get me before I reached the outskirts, as I was not able to use the floo network. And I noticed some oddities as of late that worried me." Lilly was deep in thought when Modred spoke up.
"Ther is a Giant of a man outside who just showed up." Severus stepped beside her to the Window and indeed a very big man was making his way to the building.
"What is that oaf doing here?" Asked Severus aloud and Lilly knew who he was talking about.
"Hagrid? Why would he send Hagrid? Sure he is immune against most spells but against Voldemort, he is no help at all!" Severus stroke his chin and then nodded to himself.
"Lilly... I know you have no reason to trust me but I have to ask you to leave and lay low for a while. This doesn't add up. Like you said Dumbeldore had more than enough time to inform the order and apparate here himself. He could easily prevent this, and maybe even would have arrived to save Potter. And now his most loyal boot licker appears? Take your two... acquaintances and leave." For a while, Lilly just stood there, she nodded.
"Modred, Arthurhia we need to get out of here. I will apparate us into my and James' safe house grab my Shoulder." The two Servants did as Lilly asked, a loud pop the 3 Woman, and the baby disappeared. while Snape got busy. He created fake ashes and put it into the crib and on the floor. he made the whole room look much more devastated, he just finished when Hagrid appeared.
"Snape? Whatcha doing here? W-Wheres Lilly and the young Morgan?" Severus turned to the half-giant.
"I heard about the attack, it's too late... regarding Lilly and her dauther…." He looked down at the ashes. Hagrid followed his view and his face lost all color.
"No... NO! NO! NO! NOT LILLY!" Angry and also crying he punched a gigantic hole through the Wall. Severus the while picked up the Robe and the Wand.
"Whatever Lilly did, it took him out." Hagrid looked to him and then at the Robes and Wand, recognizing them in an instant.
"A-Are those?" Severus nodded.
"All that remains of the Dark Lord. I felt it before... my mark burned and started to fade... whatever Lilly did she sacrificed herself and also her daughter to take him out. She probably knew that she couldn't trust that fool Potter to protect her. But do tell Hagrid what brings you here? Unless you have also an informant in the Death Eaters you never bothered to mention I fail to see how you could have known something is wrong." Ignoring the insult towards James, Hagrid began to explain.
"Dumbledore sent me. Said I should bring him young Morgan" Severus raised an eyebrow.
"And how did our esteem Headmaster know that the girl had survived? witch, she didn't but I suppose you can gather up the girl's ashes. Now if you excuse me... I have to check on the Dark Lords' forces. if I act quickly I may be able to figure out if the War continues... or if it's over." And so he left the building, leaving Hagrid alone to weep for his fallen friends. When he entered the living room he once more looked down at Potters corpse. He would not deny that he felt no sadness for the man... but he supposes he can at least respect the man for giving his life for Lilly. He knelt and closed James' eyes.
"...you did you're duty Potter. Better than I ever thought you capable of. I hope you can rest in peace...knowing she and you're... daughter... are safe." And with those parting words, he apparated away.
The next few days were very hectic in the Wizarding World. In her safe house, Lilly still got issues of the Daily Prophet, so she was disgusted at what was going on. For some ungodly reason, Dumbledore decided to proclaim her daughter as the one that defeated the Dark Lord! She had no idea how he comes up with that idea that a 15-month-old baby would be able to do bat a Voldemort! A job, not even he was able to do! The same goes for all the wizards and witches who believe this crap! But what angers her most was his attempts of getting control over the Potter Vaults and assets! Not a day after Haloween the Goblins, who of course still knew she was alive, informed her that Dumeldore attempted to seize control over the Potter seats and vaults! She started to believe more and more about Snapes' suspicions. She was currently in the living room of her safe house, a small cottage on the other side of the country. Arthuria and Modred were upstairs, on the lookout for Death Eaters and Morgan was in Lilly's arms.
Her silent ranting about the headmaster was interrupted when suddenly the chimney flared up in green fire and the reason for her sour mood stepped out. Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts, Supreme Mugwump, and Chief Warlock. As always he was dressed in robes that made Lilly seriously question if the man was color blind! They were a horrendous grassy green, with what looks like golden waves, woven into the hems and arms of the Robes.
"Dumbeldore...how did you get in here? How did you even know of this place?" Asked Lilly coldly. She sent out a command to her two Servants, having learned there's a telepathic link between them, to get down here and be at the ready. The unwelcome headmaster just smiled fondly at Lilly, not in the slightest concerned with her tone.
"Lilly I am delighted to see you truly are still alive. Of course, I had my suspicions about this, after all, it was only James' will that was unlocked. I assume it was you who placed the fake ash? A clever ploy to get away from the Death Eaters, I admit but I would have preferred if you had contacted me right after the attack." Lilly just narrowed her eyes.
"You didn't answer my question. How did you get in here? How do you even know of this place? The only people who know are James and me!" Much to Lilly's annoyance, the smile did not vanish from the old man's face.
"Well, James made a wise decision when he clued in both Remus and Sirius in the location of the safe house. Sirius was more reluctant to share but Remus was more than forthcoming and gave me the address" Lilly had to hold a scoff. She was not surprised. For as intelligent as Remus was he was one of James' friends Lilly disliked the most, Peter not counting as she always knew he wasn't a true friend of James. Even when she wasn't as suspicious of the Headmaster as she is today she never liked how Remy saw all that Dumbeldore said as the word of god.
Merlin, she is certain Dumbeldore could speak about killing small kittens and Remus would follow as long as Dumbeldore spouts about his Greater Good. Meanwhile, Dumbeldore continued talking.
"I'm truly glad that both you and Morgan are alive and well. Now then we have to discuss business. First of all, we must bring Morgan to a safe location where she can grow up, away from the wizarding world. I was thinking about sending him to Petunia and-"
"My daughter isn't going anywhere, especially not to Petunia!" She had to do her best to not shout and wake Morgan up. Dumbledore looked at her as if talking to a misbehaving child.
"Lilly I understand you and Petunia did not part on the best of terms after the death of your parents, but I'm sure you can see the reason in this. Voldemort may be gone but I have my doubts about his demise and his followers are still roaming free. I'm sure you heard of the attacks on the Longbottoms, a truly tragic thing. Living in a Muggle Neiborhood will make it much harder to locate her because I erected special protection-"
"And what makes you think she's not safe with me Dumbeldore!? And I don't care for your reasoning! I will give you my daughter!" Dumbledore shook his head in disappointment.
"Lilly please see reason in this. Morgan must be raised away from the fame and the danger. Also... you are a 19-year-old widow, unfit to raise a child on your own. This is for the Greater Good so please hand over harry so that I-"
"Sabers!" Was all that Lilly said and before Dumbeldore could even attempt to pull out his wand he suddenly found himself looking at two blond Women, both pointing their Swords at him.
"Albus allow me to introduce you to Saver of Red and Saber of Blue. Their the once who killed Voldemort, with the Swords that are now pointed at you. Do you think I didn't know about you trying to gain control over our Vaults? Or MY seats at the Wizengamot that are within my rights as Lady Potter?" Dumbeldore narrowed his eyes, the normally always present twinkling gone. He was certain the two Knights were not there when he entered the room and moved at immense speeds.
"Lilly... did you truly ask two Dark Witches for help? Are you out of your mind?!" But Lilly just stood up still carrying Morgan and glaring at her old headmaster.
"Ther is no Dark Magic involved here Dumbeldore and I'm pretty sure the two here don't know much magic. Leave. You are not welcome here." But Dumbledore didn't move an inch.
"Lilly you can't be led astray! Morgan MUST be raised in the muggle world where she is safe! This only proves my reasoning that you are unfit! You resolved to Dark Magic to- ARGH!" Modred having enough of the old man's babbling, with a swift swing of her sword, so fast that neither Lilly nor Dumbeldore even noticed she moved her arm until suddenly half of Dumbeldored's beard fell to the ground.
"Shut it, you old geezer! You heard the Master so fuck off! If not well... next time I may aim for the head!" A wide grin spread over Modred's face that terrified the old man, solidifying his opinion that Lilly was led astray from the path of light!
"Master? Do you even realize how far you have fallen already Lilly? It pains me to see that one of my pupils would go so far away from the path of Light... I will leave but I'm afraid you will not remain free for long Lilly. I hope that maybe Azkabahn will show you the errors of your way and once I'm certain you have been redeemed we can arrange your meeting with Morgan once he turns 11." He stepped back into the fireplace and vanished.
"...This? This was the man you followed in this war? he blatantly stated that he would return with the authorities, pretty much warning you about what is to come" Lilly just gave out a loud sight.
"I hardly can believe it myself... everything is ready, correct?" Arthuria nodded.
"As you ordered I went to the Goblins and secured an international Port Key to Japan... but may I ask why Japan exactly? It still partially eludes me and I had no real-time to ask till now." Lilly nodded.
"Japan is not an ICW member nation, therefore Dumbeldore has no influence there whatsoever. Quite the contrary, they hate his guts, for branding their special kind of Magic as Dark and trying to outlaw it worldwide. It's the whole reason why Japan did not join with like the majority of Asian Countries." Arthuria nodded and they quickly gathered the portkeys. They knew something like this could happen and so Lilly took preparation to escape the country. When an hour later Dumbeldore returned with the order and a few Aurors, Lilly was long gone and left no trace as to where she went.
