Chapter One: Prologue
Disclaimer: Sorry, but all the stuff J.K. owns, I don't. I REALLY hope you already realized that, for your own good....
Since I don't have anything to say, here is the first chappie!

"Lily! Lily, take Harry and run! Hide him and Kara! Now, just do what I say!" James Potter shouted to his wife as an evil man named Voldemort burst through the Potter's front door, ready to kill.
Lily followed James's orders immediately, and ran upstairs with two kids in her arms, for the first time in her life, fear striking her.
"Why hello, Potter. Let me get through here NOW, or you shall face the consequences!" Voldemort turned to James, the only one in the room.
"No." James stated bravely, even though his heart was pounding.
"You amuse me, Potter. You want to stick up for you Mudblood wife, and your child, when you know they will die anyway. So very funny..." Voldemort mused.
James was confused. He had two children, not one!? But he wasn't going to say that to Voldemort anytime soon!
"Stupefy!" James hurtled a curse at Voldemort, angry for calling his wife a foul name.
"It is a pity you wouldn't turn to the dark side..." Voldemort sighed as he jumped away from the curse with casual ease. "But, it is not so sad that I will have to kill you! Avada Kerdava!" Voldemort grinned like the lunatic he was—an evil lunatic.
James Potter tried with all his might to dodge the deadly spell driving towards him with his excellent Qudditch talents, but couldn't move fast enough. The curse hit James squarely on his chest, and he slipped to the ground with his last thoughts of his family.

Lily Potter was upstairs, in the twins' (Harry and Cara's) bedroom. Lily was trying to find places to hide her children, but it was of no use. Lily was so scared she just quickly hid Cara under the low crib, and covered her with blankets.
But before she had time to hide Harry, she heard Voldemort laughing; a cold heartless laugh, and she knew James was gone.
Silent tears fell down her cheeks, but she knew she had to be strong.
She heard creaking noises coming up from the stairs, and she could tell that Voldemort was making his way up the stairs. She put Harry down on the ground and whipped out her wand, standing ready for battle.
"Why hello, Mudblood. Move aside, and let me take the child." Voldemort ordered, throwing open the door.
"No! I would never!" Lily was now fully crying.
"Stand aside silly girl!" The Dark Lord raged.
"NO!"
"Avada Kerdava!"
And, just like how the curse hit James, it hit Lily, making her drop to the ground in shock, in denial, right before she died. But not before she sent love out to all of her family, pure and gold magic, straight into the twins.
Voldemort turned on to Harry with a swish of his cloak. "How could a measly boy be able to defeat the wonderful and powerful Voldemort? How could everyone think that you would be able to defeat me? Well, they must be mad, because now, you will be gone, and no one can save you now! AVADA KERDAVA!" Voldemort shouted for the third time in the Potter house in one day.
But instead of killing the boy, like all killing curses should, the curse bounced off Harry, like there was some sort of shield around him, somehow sending the spell away, but landing under the crib, bouncing out, and then finally, with a swirl of thunder, crashing rapidly into Voldemort, slamming him into the walls. Suddenly, right after his fall, Voldemort vanished in a swirl of dust and mist.
Harry started crying, and Kara just stared at her surroundings, scared, unlike a normal baby should be.
Later on that day, or night, Sirius Black, Harry and Kara's godfather, came to the house to check up on Lily and James. When he saw the house in ruble, and his friend Hagrid standing off to the side, Sirius's blood ran cold.
He knew that that couldn't be good.
"Hagrid, where is everyone?" Sirius muttered weakly.
Hagrid turned around quickly alert, but when he saw whom it was, his face softened.
"I'm sorry Sirius.... They were good folk..." Hagrid bowed his head down. "But, young Harry survived!" He added, cheering up just a tad, holding up a now sleeping Harry to Sirius.
"Ther—They're—gone?" Sirius's eyes glazed over.
Hagrid bowed his head down, clearly hurt also. "But like I said, Harry survived!"
Sirius seemed to have just heard that. His head perked up, and he rushed over to pick up the bundle of cloth that was Harry.
Harry seemed fine, but on his forehead there was a lightning bolt shaped scar. "Can I take him with me? I mean, he is my godson." Sirius asked.
"Sorry, but I am supposed' to take him directly' to Dumbledor'. Sorry, Sirius." Hagrid said, sending out a huge hand and patting Sirius on the back.
Sirius nodded, and with a final hug, gave Harry to Hagrid. "You can take my bike. You'll go faster that way."
Hagrid nodded, "Thanks bud. I'm sorry about the way this worked out, Sirius."
And with that, Hagrid kicked off on the bike he just clambered onto, and flew off into the night.
Sirius stood watching the house for a good hour or so, after Hagrid left with Harry. Suddenly, a loud wail pierced the darkness.
Sirius, with some hope, ran over to the ruble, and began searching. For what, he did not yet know. "It was probably just a fake toy, or something, one of Kara's dolls. Wait—KARA!" Sirius shouted gleefully, as he lifted up a broken crib revealing a very sad and scared baby.
Sirius picked Kara up, and hugged her with all his might. 'She can't stay here anymore. It's too dangerous.' He thought, thinking of a place where he could send her. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. 'Italy! We can send her to Italy!'
Sirius had had a girlfriend in Hogwarts (The wizarding school in England) from Italy, and she had been an exchange student from Italy, and she had told him about her old school like Hogwarts, called Weatherwoods. It was also a magical school, and Sirius was now intent on getting Kara there.
But before he left (apparated) Sirius took one last glance at his old friends house. He wished that everything had not happened. But then a thought struck him.
'Peter! That traitor! I should have known he would turn Lily and James in! He always liked people to protect him; I guess he also wanted power! He WILL pay for what he did! He will!!!!!!!!!' Sirius thought angrily.
Sirius, with a final (really this time) sad glance at his friends house (or what USED to be his friends house...) thought of meadows and hills of wheat and grain, then very pretty mountains, next to a Italian style castle. Suddenly, Sirius (With Kara in his arms) apparated to Italy, at Weatherwoods.
(A/N: Okay, at Weatherwoods, you CAN apparate on to the grounds, they just have higher security at the school, kay?)
Sirius looked around, trying to find the main entrance to the castle. Finally, after 30 minutes, he found the doors, and he pushed them open. As he was walking along the hall, he thought something stupid.
'Wait a minute! I don't know where I'm going!? Where is the Headmaster's office?' Sirius was very confused, but was saved when an elderly man came walking up towards him.
"May I help you Sir? What are you doing at Weatherwoods?" The man stated with a thick Italian accent.
"My name is Sirius Black, and I was wondering if you could take this child in, and raise her. Her name is—Kara Evans. Please take her in. Her parents were just murdered by Voldemort in England, and now she has nowhere to stay. I was hoping she could stay here because it might be less dangerous here?" Sirius explained really quickly.
"Okay, let me get this. That babies name is Kara Evans. Her parents were just murdered by You-Know-Who. (A/N: Voldemort was so big that everyone knew about him in the wizarding world.) And you want her to stay here, in hopes that she will be more safe?" The Headmaster questioned.
"Yes. Just so you know, a former pupil of yours, Kristine Maggiano, told me about this place." Sirius replied.
"Alright. I will take the girl in. I hope you will be most safe, and goodbye." The headmaster smiled; he was always willing to do a good deed, without too many questions.
"Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOO much! If you need anything, just ask me, and I'll help!" Sirius exclaimed happily.
The headmaster laughed, and sent Sirius on his way.
Sirius intended on going back for Kara when she was about five, and probably all the stuff about Voldemort would have died down.
How wrong he was....
