A Different Kind of Story
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, if I did, why would I be here?
Chapter One: A Dark and Stormy Night
It was a dark and stormy night and little Harry Potter was asleep in bed. Lily held her head over the crib and saw her sleeping little boy clutching a tanish brown teddy bear and was covered with a blue blanket. "Oh James,… isn't he just precious?" she asked in the sweetest little whisper. "Yes, and Harry means leader." James whispered back as he also looked down upon his son. "That's what he is though,…" Lily began. "And He knows that." James put an arm around his wife. "Oh Lily, don't worry, Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black have our cover." James whispered………………………………............................................................................
The thunder crashed a crossed the land as loud as fifty bowling pins being knocked over. In the distance a man in a black cloak and dark covered hood stood above two other men. One looked almost like a rat, with tuffs of hair falling out, long fingernails and big ratty eyes. The other one almost looked like Jesus with a long bushy beard and swaddling clothes. The one who looked like Jesus jumped in front of the cloaked man and pointed a finger at his hood. "There's no way you're getting anywhere the Potters!" He bellowed. Not if I have anything to say about it." he finished under his teeth. "Oh Sirius,…Sirius…." he hissed. "There are things more important than your friends,…James; and Lily." "All the Potters; Tom." Sirius growled. "That's including Harry………………………………..............................................................................
"Death Eaters! Death Eaters!!!" Tom shouted with a screech in his voice. Suddenly, thousands of cloaked figures began to circle them in a clockwise version spinning inside out as they became visible. "Take Black and to the Potter's!!!!" he shrieked. Finally, he lifted his hood just so Black could see his devilish eyes. "He misses his friends." he said through his vampire like fangs as he smirked and chuckled evilly……………………………….................................................................................
Back at the Potter's Mansion, Harry was still fast asleep in his crib. Lily rocked in a little wooden arched rocking chair, while James was downstairs looking through the glass door as the rain poured from the sky hitting the glass, with the lightning and thunder right behind it. Suddenly, it looked as though the grim reaper was making it's way towards the house. Slowly and snakelike it emerged. "Lily!!! Lily!!!" he shouted as he ran upstairs two at a time. Harry began to whimper, than cry. Lily had a scolding eye as she made her way towards the crib. "Now look what you did! You woke him up!" she scolded. "But Lily, Voldemort's here!!!" Lily picked up Harry and rocked him on her hip to comfort him. "Voldemort?" she asked with a dumbfounded look. "But who___" she began with her mouth wide open. James went over and hit his arms on the walls as it thudded the whole house along with the thunder. "Peter Pettigrew!!!" he shouted angrily.
………………………………............................................................................................
I knew he was no good, I knew he was a coward! Sirius tried to warn me, but I didn't listen! "What do you mean?" Lily asked as Harry finally stopped crying. "Sirius told me once that Peter would do anything to save his own skin. Even tell bullies where Sirius was in order not to jinx him." "So what do we do now!!??" Lily asked with panic in her voice. James spun around to look at her. "We have to hide Harry!!!" Suddenly, there was banging at the door as though someone was trying to knock it down. "I'll get downstairs and get my wand! You stay up here and protect Harry!" Neither Harry, nor Lily, nor James knew that he wouldn't be coming back………………………………...............................................................................
There was a flash of green light downstairs and Lily ran to the top of the stairs while Harry lay under his blanket. Looking up Voldemort started to fire green shots from his wand at Lily. "Get back here Lily Potter!!!" he shouted as Lily ran back into the nursery and put on James' invisibility cloak. Harry was whimpering under his blanket. "Shhh…" Lily said as she put a finger to her lips. Voldemort made his way upstairs by the sound of Harry's cries. He was just about to lift the blanket when Lily made herself visible again. "NO!!!! NOT HARRY!!!! PLEASE NOT HARRY!!!!" she said sobbing. "TAKE ME, KILL ME INSTEAD!!!!" "Avada Kedardra!!! Voldemort shouted as he pointed his wand at her and Lily was knocked unconscious, but she wasn't dead ………………………………..............................................................................................
Suddenly, Voldemort lifted the blanked and pointed at Harry, everything in Lily's mind went blank.
………………………………............................................................................................
Am I dead? Lily thought. Is this Heaven? No it can't be Heaven. I saw Voldemort kill Harry and Harry isn't here? I see Mittens, but where is Harry??? And then Lily fell asleep
