Okay so here is the deal. I'm changing the story. Not to much I'm just adding something in. I'm making this the first chapter instead. Get it? Sorry for the confusion. I just thought of something different. So tell me what you think about it.
Oh p.s. the words: ostendo sum vicis means reverse time in Latin. :)
Chapter 1: The New Beginning To An Old Story
Shifting uneasily I look at my gorgeous husband that I had hated so many years back. I couldn't believe I was at this point in my life. It was almost a perfect life except for the fact we were on the run. Our fate relied on a man that James trusted, but I wasn't so sure about.
"James? You are sure we are safe?"
Turning he smiled at me with that same smile that I had fallen in love some years ago. Those chocolate brown eyes filled my heart with warmth and I knew before he even answered we were safe. We just had to be.
"Don't worry my love I will keep you safe."
Sitting down next to me he put his arm around me and laughed at our son, Harry. Harry was parading around the room with a fake wand yelling out fake spells trying to imitate our actions.
"Assssoooo teddy bear!" He called pointing his wand at his teddy bear and concentrating hard.
You couldn't help but laugh at the expression on his face. At least he was an eager learner. He would be a great wizard if he lived. If he lived. Those words echoed in my mind. Had I really just thought that? Surely he would live. He had to live...
"James...I'm still scared." I whispered in his ear.
Tilting my chin so that I had to look up at him he shook his head. "There is no need to be my dear. Please don't worry. Pettigrew will not betray us."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door and we all froze in place even Harry. James moved forward to answer it but I held out my hand.
"No James don't...we will just sneak out the back and disapparate outside. James it could be him..."
Taking my hand he kissed it and got up to check the door. Fear was ablaze inside of me.
"Who is it?" James called.
No answer.
"Who is there?" James called once again his voice not as steady as it had been.
Still no answer.
Turning to look at me through the doorway I saw fear in his eyes.
"Take Harr..." Suddenly the door blasted open picking James up and slamming him against the wall.
"JAMES!" My heart had stopped.
No it couldn't be. No not the man that I had loved. The man that I had hated all those years and wasted precious time with him was laying dead pressed up against the wall, and the man that everyone feared and hated was approaching me and Harry about to take our lives as well.
Voldemort was smiling and laughing getting closer and closer to me whispering, "Lily Lily Lily aren't you oh so pretty." Throwing his head back he cackled in his high glass breaking voice.
That's when James appeared hunkered down and limping. He was alive! He was still alive.
"Bastard!" He hissed.
Voldemort turned around and at the sight of him let out another horrific laugh.
"Do you mean to kill me James Potter?"
James straightened up and tried to puff his chest out just like he would do in school. "You will not take my family away."
I couldn't see this. I believed James could defeat Voldemort but something in my heart told me that it wasn't time. Taking the crying Harry I rushed up stairs never looking back. I heard the screams and crashes from down below but I wouldn't let myself think about it. I couldn't think of my James dying. It was to terrifying to think of him not being here anymore with me.
Wrenching open Harry's bedroom door I locked it and tried to put the few protection spells that I knew on it. Placing him carefully in his crib I placed them on his crib as well. I couldn't bare to loose Harry too. He was so young. He was so innocent he didn't deserve this kind of life. No one does.
Standing between Harry and the door I prayed that James would stop him that all of this horror would end soon and I would never have to worry about Harry dying again.
My heart sunk as I heard the cackling nearing the door. "You think you can keep me out of this room!" The door flew off the hinges trapping me in its force as it hit the wall. Air gushed out of me.
"Noooo..." I whimpered unable to fully talk.
My vision was impaired and darkness was slowly creeping in. "Please don't..." I whispered unable to yell.
"Don't worry I will spare you Lily. You are not to die tonight." Laughing he pointed his wand at Harry.
My wand was standing not two feet from Voldemort's feet. I was completely helpless to my son. Watching desperately I saw Voldemort raise his wand and point it at Harry's head.
Harry held up his fake wand and whimpered, "No! Bad Voldy!"
Voldemort was slightly taken back. Stepping back he looked at the boy more eagerly. Then began to laugh.
"You stupid boy that is not a spell!"
Gathering the little strength I had left I crawled from out of the binds of the door and towards my wand. I knew that I would not go unnoticed but I just had to try. I just had to try to save Harry. Maybe just maybe I could.
"Here is your stupid wand." Throwing it at my feet he just stood back and watched my fatal attempts to stop him.
"You are so sure of yourself. More self centered than my husband. One day even if it is not me someone will stop you."
Laughing he flicked his wand at me and I was sent hurtling backwards.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
Screaming I winced expecting to be hit with green light. However, the pain did not come but darkness did.
"Lily! Oh Lily you have to wake up! Please don't die. Please awake! LILY!"
Opening my eyes I saw Sirius staring back at me. I wasn't dead? How was I not dead?
Suddenly I sat up and looked at the crib. There was Harry sleeping peacefully. My heart soared. We had made it out alive.
"Harry!" Getting up I tried to go to him, but Sirius held me back.
"Wha...let me go! I want to see my son! Let me go! SIRIUS!"
He was crying and wouldn't let me go.
"Lily oh Lily he is dead..." His voice trailed off and he would not look me in the eyes.
Pushing him away I ran to Harry. Sirius had always been crazy and stupid. Harry wasn't dead he was just merely sleeping that was all. When I reached his crib my heart crumpled to the floor. His eyes were glassed over and he was staring straight ahead.
"NOOOO!" I had not been able to protect my only son.
"James?" I asked Sirius and by the look in his eyes I knew it was all over. I had lost everyone that had meant anything to me. They were all dead because of him.
Grabbing Sirius by the collar I bellowed, "KILL HIM SIRIUS YOU HAVE TO KILL HIM! KILL THAT STUPID RAT!"
Pushing me away he shook his head. "Don't you think I have tried? I found out right before Voldemort came here. I went for Pettigrew and he faked his death. The Ministry is looking for me to put me in Azkaban."
"They can't! The just can't your innocent!"
Shaking his head he looked solemn. "They can and they will. I have to run Lily. I am trying to find him don't worry."
Before I could say another word he disapparated. All alone in the rubble that had used to be my home I crept silently down the stairs. As if I really had anything to worry about.
Walking into the living room I found Hagrid standing in what was left of the living room crying his eyes out making a river on the ground.
"Oh...Lily...Dumbl...Dumbledore...sent you...this." He gasped.
Slowly I took the letter looking at the giant crying helplessly. Saying nothing he just looked around and continued to cry. I didn't know what to say to comfort him. It was if I was numb. I was afraid to look towards my right where I knew for sure James probably was slain upon the floor eyes glassed over just as Harry's had done.
My Dearest Lily,
You were such a wonderful student in school. So smart I'm sure you found many charms in order to try and protect your son, Harry. I know you failed Lily, but here is what you must do. You must fix it for you were supposed to die not Harry. Ah yes I know this sounds crazy as do most of the things I have told you these past few years, but please trust me you must go back in the past and fix this. If Harry does not live this world will end as we know it. Please use this spell. It is a new spell and will surely work just not in the way you expect it to. Believe me this time you will get it right. Time is not something to play with Lily remember that.
Dumbledore.
P.S. The spell is: ostendo sum vicis
Looking at Hagrid I smiled and hugged him. "Don't worry Hagrid I will fix this."
Pointing my wand at myself I yelled, "Ostendo Sum Vicis!"
The world started spinning and darkness twirled its blackness in front of my eyes. Years passed by my eyes so fast I could barely tell what they were saying. Suddenly ahead I saw light and I went hurtling into it, and found myself falling down into a room. It was the History of Magic classroom and I saw myself trying to take a test being disturbed by a boy. Before I could remember anymore I slammed into a version of my younger self.
A/N: Okay so I hope you like the new little twist. :) please review! I would appreciate it!
