The beginning of the end
Tom "Voldemort" Morvolo Riddle, aka many things, stepped over the still twitching body of James Potter and flowed up the stairs to the second floor on the trail of Lily Potter. Hurry Lily thought to herself as she threw up another ward on the door to the baby's room, that monsters coming and I have to get Harry out of here.
"Oh James please hold him off for a few more seconds love," she sobbed, the last of the wards sliding in to place. She turned and raced to the crib, tears already rolling down here face. As she reached the crib she heard "Expositus Praemium" and then the door burst open and Voldemort strolled in.
"Were those pathetic wards supposed to stop me," he said as he raised his wand not towards Lily but the baby.
"Intereo Bardus Deleo!" Voldemort barked happily.
"NO!" Lily screamed as she jumped in front of the Unforgivable Spell and then simply fell to the floor dead.
"Fool" he said stepping over Lily's body and pointing his wand at the head of Harry.
Now, to rid myself of you Harry Potter "Avada Kedavra!" the spell burst from his wand and then everything went wrong.
'Consequences be damned' Sirius Black thought as he arrived in a burst of smoke in front of the Potter's house still covered in blood from the carnage the Deatheater had caused in the metro, and froze. The front door was missing as was the second floor, he screamed James and Lily's name once as he rushed into the house wand in hand and blood in his eyes, and then he stopped as he saw the body of James crumpled on the floor and his shoulders slumped it was too late.
"No!" he sobbed, "it's not fair, why Lily, James and Harry why not me instead?" then he heard the sound of a crying baby. He rushed up what was left of the stairs and was stunned the only thing left was the crib and the floor around it. He leaped over to the remaining floor and approached the crib his wand still in his hand and looked down to see Harry crying with a lightning scar on his forehead.
Suddenly Aurors began Apparating in around him.
"Confundus" Said one catching him off guard.
"Accio" said another and his wand flew out Sirius's hand and into his.
"Redimio Silentium" said a third gagging and binding him.
"Take him away" said the last one, as he stepped over to the crib, "The Boy who lived and you were going to finish him huh? Thank the maker we got here in time."
