Halloween 1981
Godric's Hollow
"Come on Lily" shouted James, "we'll be late for the order meeting"
"I'm ready" replied Lily, "let's go"
They turned to Margaret Potter, James sister
"Look after the twins while we're at the meeting. We'll be back soon" said James
They apparated to Hogsmead and hurried up to Hogwarts castle for the meeting with the Order of the Phoenix.
"Is everyone here?" asked Dumbledore
"No only Pettigrew is missing" replied Sirius
"We'll wait five more minutes then start the meeting"
Pettigrew did not turn up in those five minutes. He was miles away in Riddle Manor.
Riddle Manor
"Master, I can give you the location of the Potter brats" said Pettigrew, "they made me their secret keeper"
"Well done Wormtail you have done well." Said Voldemort
"Thank you master" Wormtail replied, "the Potters live at No. 5 Godric's way, Godric's Hollow"
"Thank you. I will go kill them so I can't be defeated."
"Why do you need to kill them so you can't be defeated?" asked Wormtail nervously
"A prophecy said that only a child born to those who have thraughted me three times will be able to defeat me. Only the Potters have fulfilled this part of the prophecy"
With that Voldemort apparated to Malfoy Manor to organise a surprise attack.
An hour later the plan had been made and was immediately put into effect. A group of Death Eaters would attack Oxford while Voldemort went for the Potters.
Hogwarts
Back at Hogwarts an alarm sounded in the meeting room. The saw that the attack was on Oxford so apparated there. No one noticed the alarm go off again for an attack on Godric's Hollow as they all were at Oxford fighting the death eaters.
Godric's Hollow
The twins Harry James Potter and Kerry Anne Potter were asleep in their crib. Margaret Potter and her fiancé John Talbot, who was a muggle but knew about the wizading world because of his sister and Margaret, were relaxing downstairs after putting the twins to bed.
Suddenly the front door blew apart, John jumped up and pulled out a gun, the only weapon he had that might stand a chance against a wizard. Margaret went up to the twins' room to try and protect them.
Voldemort stepped over the door and saw John.
"Well, well, well" he sneered, "a muggle"
John fired off a shot just missing Voldemort.
"Shut up Voldemort, you won't leave here alive"
"You have guts, I respect that, but that's not enough. Avada Kedavra"
John fell down dead. Voldemort stepped over the body and headed upstairs.
He saw Margaret in front of the crib protecting them.
"Give me the kids and you shall live" he hissed quietly.
"No. you will have to kill me, I won't let you take them"
"Very well then. Avada Kedavra"
Margaret Potter fell dead as well. Voldemort stepped in front of the crib and lifted his wand.
"So you are the ones prophesised to defeat me, time for you to die. AVADA KEDAVRA!"
The curse launch towards the twins. It hit them and Voldemort smiled. Then the unthinkable happed, the curse rebounded on to Voldemort. The only marks on the twins were scars. Kerry had a scar on her forehead, clearly visible, while Harry's scar was hidden beneath his hair.
The attack on Oxford was stopped, a few Death eaters were captured and no lives were lost. They returned to Hogwarts and noticed that Godric's Hollow was also under attack.
In a panic Lily and James instantly apparated to their home. The first thing the noticed was John lying dead in the hall and the door destroyed. Lily ran upstairs and saw that Margaret was dead. Dreading the worst she went to the crib, but was surprised to find another body lying there. She looked into the crib and saw that the twins were alive.
"James!" she yelled
"What is it?"
"The twins they're alive and Kerry was a scar on her forehead no mark on Harry and Voldemort is dead"
"Voldemort dead? Kerry has a scar? Kerry must be the child in the prophecy"
Lily picked up Kerry and gently rocked her.
"It's ok, the bad man gone" she crooned
Harry made motions to be picked up as well but was ignored.
James contacted the ministry and the Daily Prophet. The ministry said that Voldemort was dead, which was published in a special edition of the Daily Prophet. By 9 o'clock that evening everyone knew that Voldemort was dead and that Kerry Anne Potter was the 'girl who lived'. The celebrations lasted all night, everyone celebrating the fall of Voldemort and raising their glasses to Kerry Potter, the girl who lived.
