Prologue


The students of Hogwarts are worried. Voldemort is at large, and they have no way to stop him. There is one student, however, who is brave enoughto take on the Dark Lord.

Jacob Potter jumped out of bed and scurried down the stairs. The second year knew he was in danger by doing this alone, but he was ready. At least, he hoped he was. And so did everyone else. They were relying on him.

Jacob was used to people depending on him. Just last month, he had nearly killed a Slytherin in a duel. But he had a mission, and he would succeed. He was easily the bravest student in his year.

His five-year-old sister, Harley, would love to see her older brother save a thousand students and twenty-something teachers and Albus Dumbledore.

He had to do this.


AN: Sorry this chapter was so short, but I ran out of ideas and decided to end it there. I hope you liked this first chapter.
