Day of Destiny - Prologue

When things change in this world or any other it does not happen with a million voices crying out with sorrow nor with a thousand voices crying out in joy. Instead it is with the merest whisper on the wind that often signals the changes that will affect entire worlds.

So it was on the day that fate set the wizarding world and the muggle world on the path that would one day see them combine and come out the stronger or end in this world's annihilation. There are two ways this world can go and a million choices will be made before the end is known for fate may paint the broad brushstrokes of our destiny but it is we who make that final choice between light and dark or merely a shade of grey.

This story truly starts with a man, a woman and a child living in a small but cosy house in the village of Godric's Hollow. Dusk had fallen on all hallows eve while the man and woman were enjoying their meal after putting their precious son to bed, when they were disturbed by a knock on the door.

Within second they were both alert and wary knowing that no one should know where they were or even that they still lived. James looked at his wife with love and sorrow in his eyes and said "Run! Lily grab Harry and run like hell. Don't look back and I'll buy you all the time I can."

Lily dashed up the stairs as the door was blasted to smithereens and one of the most foul, most evil wizards who would ever live entered the house at Godric's hollow. Lily desperately tried to apparate out of the house as the battle for their future continued below. However it was already too late there was no way they could leave the house as the only exit was back the way she came.

Suddenly silence fell below and Lily knew that James had fallen. "Merlin and Morgana" she muttered "I do not care what happens to me but please. Please protect my son for he is an innocent whom, you are oath bound to protect."

The footsteps that had been steadily ascending where now sounding outside the nursery door…

BOOM!!! Lily quickly stood in front of her son prepared to fight to the death to protect him. Much like a mamma grizzly bear does for her cubs.

"Stand aside you foolish mud blood and I will continue to allow your pathetic existence. Resist and I will annihilate you so that you will be no more than dust on the floor and then I will kill your son."

"I will not let my son die you will have to kill me first."

The dark lord shrugged and his eyes shone as "Avada Kedavra. So be it. You could have had a future instead you will all be destroyed. Avada Kedavra" and so the legend began as the unforgivable did the unbelievable and was reflected back at the caster. Leaving Harry with a scar in the shape of a lightning bolt on his forehead.

So begins the legend of Harry Potter; the boy who live and who would later be a catalyst for change and essential in determining the future of this world
