Chapter I
October 31, 1981
"James, where are Gracie and Eli?" Screamed Lily Potter in a panic. Her home, her family, all being destroyed.
Voldemort was the culpret, and he was out to destroy James and Lily Potter because of them being in the Order of the Phoenix, a group of very powerful good wizards out to kill Voldemort and and his followers: the Death Eaters.
It was unknown to the rest of the world that Lily had twins, Grace Lily and Elijah Sirius. She and her husband feared that they would be in serious danger if Voldemort figured out that Gracie and Eli were born only a few months before. Apparently it didn't matter if he knew about the Potter twins, he still attacked anyway.
Harry, her one year old son, was in her hands, and she placed him in his crib in his bedroom. She didn't want to leave him, but she had to find Gracie and Elijah Suddenly, James ran into te room, Gracie on one hip, Elijah on the other.
"Lils, Remus and Sirius are on their way, you know, just in case." James said, scared. Lily was scared too. For James. For Harry. For Grace. For Elijah. That's all that she could think about being scared for. James put the twins in the crib with Harry and they fell asleep almost instantly.
Suddenly, a large bang came into the bedroom, following with a man. Lily thought that this had to be Voldemort, and she was ready for the worst.

Remus arrived at Potter Manor in Godric's Hollow around midnight. He was shocked at what he saw.
The home of Lily and James Potter was destroyed, in shambles.
Then he thought about Harry, Gracie and Eli.
He ran into the house as fast as he could up to the twins' nursery. It was empty. He next ran to Harry's nursery and had to pry the door opened. When he eventually got it opened, he saw the Potter children all in Harry's crib, not before he saw the bodies of his best friends.
He was saddened and shocked, but he now knew that he had to take care of their children, especially since Harry was the Chosen One.
He looked at Harry. He now had a lightning bolt scar on his forehead and was crying, but becoming very sleepy. Remus knew things would be difficult for him as he gets older.
