AN: Bear with me. I try to be perfect, but it just doesn't work so if there is any OOCness... Sorry.

"Professor! He is going after them tonight. We have to leave NOW!" Severus Snape paced in the Headmasters office.

"Now Severus? He doesn't even know where they're hidden." Dumbledore hastily pointed out.

"Pettigrew. Pettigrew. Told." Snape growled, "We have to leave."

"Yes." He stated in reply simply, moving quickly through the door and down a corridor where the members of the Order were waiting- not so- patiently for orders to be given.

Dumbledore stormed into the room, his robes flying dramatically behind him.

"He is on the move. Now" that was all it took for every witch and wizard in the room to apparate to the chosen spot, from which Dumbledore Would lead a flight on broomsticks.

Sirius was gone before Dumbledore could finish speaking. Remus was gone a half-second after, trying hard to hide his fear of losing one of the people that understood him best, and the nicest woman he would ever met. Not to mention their baby boy, who Remus had loved from the start.

When everyone had apparated, and after the broom ride that seemed so much longer than it was in reality, Sirius jumped off his broom a good 4 feet before he hit the ground. Mad Eye grunted and took the lead with Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall.

Dumbledore mumbled a spell and the door flew off of its hinges right as the order flooded in. Sirius walked throughout the first hall with Lupin and Gerold Bringler who were casually guarding the Longbottoms.

The entire group had begged them to opt out of this mission to stay with their new-born baby.

Dumbledore Lead three more wizards down a second hall, and a third was manned by just Minerva and Mad-Eye Moody.

All three groups crept quietly down the hall with their wands and minds ready to send or block a killing curse n less than a seconds notice.

When the first hall and the third hall met in the living room, the groups took a collective breath.

All eyes immediately found the dead body of James Potter, his green eyes wide open in panic.

Before anyone else could even react, Sirius Black was on the floor, hopelessly searching for signs of life that everyone knew were not there.

"James!" Sirius choked out.

Tears flooded down the cheeks of Remus, as Sirius just sat there staring at his dead friend.

"He's been here. Let's move." Minerva said solemnly, marching to inspect the rest of the house.

Mad-Eye and Sirius traveled down a dark hallway, stalking quietly with their wands trained in front of them, ready and lighting their path.

They reached the nursery, where Sirius had been trying to get the entire night, to see Dumbledore leaning over in silence.

Sirius crept over to where he was standing. He didn't have to look over his shoulder to see Lily's body lying unmoving.

That meant one thing: Even Lily and James- the bravest people he had ever met- couldn't protect themselves or their new baby, Harry.

Silent sobs shook his body just thinking of the dead baby's body that Dumbledore was surely holding in his arms.

The baby that had James's everything but Lily's smile. He had stayed at Sirius's small cottage just a few miles from the Potters old home, and the baby had made Sirius Black's heart swell with love for the tiny version if his best friends. Now that everyone-

But Sirius's thoughts were cut short by the small cry of a woken baby.

Sirius flew to the other side of Dumbledore to find him holding Harry, and a folded note.

Dumbledore turned to him and gave him a weak smile, before passing the baby to him.

"The house is clear." Moody reported solemnly.

"No. Go to the front yard. There are others. They have been waiting for us."

Moody quickly left as fast as his legs would take him, calling for backup the whole way, but Dumbledore stayed sitting, And Sirius continued to hold Harry. He slowly opened the note and passed it to Sirius to read.

To whom it may concern,

I know this must be the end. Even when James and I are gone, I want my son to grow up with someone who loves him. Please take Harry to Sirius. Love Forever, Lily & James.

Sirius looked down at the baby that he held in his arms. He looked down and softly kissed the head of his godson.

"Take Harry. We cannot risk his safety. Not now that he has survived an attack by Voldemort."

Sirius nodded soberly and apparated to a safe house that James and Sirius had set up last year. He walked into a nursery made for Harry when James first found out that Lily was pregnant. He set Harru in the crib, and softly spoke to him.

"You're safe, now."
