An Alternate Beginning; The Potter Family.
Hi! This is my first Harry Potter fan fic, and it's a little different, if someone out there has already done it, my apologies. Please read and review. I don't mind critisiscm at all, as long as it's not too nasty! I'll post again if I get reviews! Thanks!

Prologue
Voldemort came to the Potters house for one reason, to kill the baby Harry Potter. Instead of killing James first, Voldemort went straight to Harry and as he casts the killing curse Lily and James both interfere. The spell goes haywire and backfires, leaving little Harry Potter with only a scar, and Voldemort a near dead man. However, in the alternate beginning to my story, Harry not only gains a scar, but his loving parents remain with him, weak, but alive.
This is my version of Harry Potter.
The green stream of light that was rushing forward to the baby Harry Potter was suddenly hit by two blue streams of light, the green stream seemed to grow smaller as it loomed towards the baby. As it hit a place on his forhead it backfired with a deafening crack and headed straight back toward the man who had sent it, Voldemort. As it hit Voldemort square in the heart, screaming, he collapsed in a crumpled heap on the floor. Realising he has been defeated as he hit the floor, he used his remaining strength to flee and was gone with a cracking sound. The two weak bodies of Lily and James were lying together on the floor as their baby screamed. Eventually Lily mustered enough strength to crawl over to her baby. She removed him from his crib and brought him back to her husband as they lay together on the floor. James arms around Lily and the baby, his wife hushing their screaming baby back to sleep, as the news of the nights events slowly began to travel throughout the wizarding world. The couple soon expected Dumbledore to arrive in their presence, all they had to do was use their last remnants of strength to survive, and wait.
