Prologue
Three and a half year old Harry James Potter couldn't quite understand the excitement that permeated his household. His daddy had explained that he was getting a sister that week, but he didn't understand why that made everybody so happy. He wasn't certain if he even wanted a sister. He liked playing with his friends, as well as his parents, and wasn't sure if they would still have time for him if his sister was around.
Alas, little Harry Potter had no control over things like the addition of siblings, and had to contend himself with the fact that his life was about to change…
Change, wouldn't even begin to explain the impact that this little girl's birth would have on his, and his entire family's lives.

Soon after hearing the prophecy, upon the other's permission, only a single mind remained with the knowledge of what was said. For the wise headmaster had known; that were the contents of this prophecy to fall in the hands of the one that were to be destroyed, all their lives could well be ruined forever.
For this prophecy contained the great and unexpected news of salvation for all, by one who was yet to be born.
The one with the power to vanquish the dark lord approaches. Born as the sun rises on the day of love. Born to those who hath defied him half a score. But the lord shall not know, as the one who should have been looks after the chosen. And one shall sacrifice so that others may live. The one with the power to vanquish the dark lord approaches…
