A Sacrifice…Or Two

"Lily! It's him! Take Harry and run! I'll hold him off! Go!"
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? Trying to protect your family James?"
"No I am not protecting them… I am saving them!" Voldemort just laughed. Flash! The great wizard James Potter died with a smile on his face knowing that he saved his family.

"No! Please! Not Harry! Take me instead!"
"Stand aside you silly girl! Stand aside now!" Flash! Lily Potter died right then. Trying to save Harry. But she didn't know someone else had just died, to save her and their baby. So in a way the Potters didn't need to leave Harry. Lily didn't have to die that day. She could have lived. So in a way Harry Potter is protected by the sacrifice of both his parents. She didn't have to die…





A/n: Well whatta you think? I know I have been working A New Line Of Heroes. But this was short. It took like ten minutes. I was struck by the thought that James died to protect Harry and Lily. She wasn't the only one who sacrificed themselves. Could everyone do something very decent for me? REVIEW! My other story got like a 100 some hits and 6 reviews. I write stories for the pure joy of having people review!
