I'll Never Join You
James Potter's parents were aurors. They were powerful pure blood wizards that held no grudge towards muggles or muggle borns. They talked to everyone except for the supporters for Lord Voldemort who they did not agree with. They thought everyone should be able to go to school muggle born or not and muggles were not any real harm to them as long as no one did anything to stupid.
It was the first war of Lord Voldemort and times were hard when Voldemort attacked many innocent people ripping families apart and torturing people for fun. He was gaining more power fast and everyday more Deatheaters joined. The only two places Voldemort had not taken over was the Ministry of Magic because of the many aurors there and Hogwarts school of Witch Craft and Wizardry was another place Voldemort could not take over. James Potter was there at the moment in his third year.
The reason Voldemort couldn't take over Hogwarts was Albus Dumbeldore. He was the headmaster of the school and the most powerful wizard alive. He was even more powerful then Voldemort and Voldemort was desperately trying to change this. Voldemort never tried to take control of Hogwarts because he knew he was know match for Dumbeldore.
Currently Voldemort was sitting at his home, Riddle Manor. His Deatheaters just attacked Diagon Alley for the third time that month. They wanted the wizarding world to know that they were gaining power and would soon take over. They had killed some aurors but captured two aurors that Voldemort needed to see. Victor and Vivian Potter. Voldemort thought they would make great Deatheaters because they were so powerful so he tried to convert them to his side.
"Never! We will never betray Dumbeldore and we will never join you," shouted Victor potter viciosly as he and his wife stood in front of Voldemort who was seated on his throne smiling at fianlly captruing them. Victor thouhgt about his son James would he ever be able to see him again?
"Ah bravery something that is very valuable and a good Deatheater trait. If you weren't blinded by stupidity you would make fine Deatheaters. So if you will not join me I have no choice but to threaten you to become a Deatheater," said Voldeort with an evil grin. Victor glared at the man. "You already did when you said you were going to kill us you evil sick snake." "How can you threaten us anymore then that," spoke Vivian Potter at last.
"Well your son James would make a fine Deatheater too. So whether you live or die I will kidnap him and have him on my Deatheater team. I just thought you would want to be the one to teach him Deatheater ways instead of me. I can be very cruel at failure," said Voldemort grinning. "You sick snake leave my child out of this," roared Victor enraged at Voldemort for threatening his son.
Thoughts raced through Victor's head. What if they did hurt James. Sure he could be a little spoiled and selfish at times but Victor loved his son because deep down below all the ego James had a heart of gold so pure no darkness could ever break it. Dumbeldore told Victor and Vivian not long ago that Voldemort wanted all of them as Deatheaters and that if they had to choose he knew Victor would do the right thing in the end. He also said if anything happened to them that he would protect James so Voldemort could never get at him.
"What do we do Victor, Dumbeldore did say he would be able to protect James if we die and I don't want to be a Deatheater," whispered Vivian to her husband frustrated at the decision she was trying to make. "Well my love I'm not becoming a Deatheater so I have made up my mind but choose whatever you feel is right just know I'll always be with you," said Victor lovingly.
"I think I know whats right. I will choose death then I'll be with you forever. I just hope James forgives us ," said Vivian sadly. "I'm sure James can get through it he's strong. But he'll have to stay with my squib brother and his muggle wife. He hates magic and wizards but his wife was always friendly." With that they looked back up to Voldemort.
"We choose death," Victor stated solemnly. "Ah to bad I guess I'll just have James kidnapped and forced to be a Deatheater. Maybe I'll even raise him to be my heir," said Voldemort mockingly with an evil grin. "You'll never get at him he'll have the best protection of Dumbeldore and he's to strong to break under you," stated Victor simply. "We'll see about that," said Voldemort as he raised his wand.
Both adults were squeezing each others hands as tears rolled down Vivian's face as she thought of James. "Avada Kedavra." Then green light spilled out of the wand and hit the two adults at the same time they fell on the floor still holding on tightly to each others hands. Then a Deatheater vanished the bodies and they all left there master to plot on how to get the Potter's son.
