Lily potter POV
We were expecting one child but we got two the first of our family, Edward James Potter jr. after James's father, he had brown hair with streaks of red but not the same color as mine, mine was bright fiery Phoenix bird feathers red, no his were a numb kind of burnt red. His eyes were a dull brown that had speaks of green going threw them. He was on the chubby side but most baby's are.He came screeching at the top of his lungs, loud enough to ring through the st. Merlin's hospital. Edward god fathers were Remus Lupin, Sirius black and Peter. The Second child to come is Harry James Potter, he seemed to be crafted by the gods, his hair was pitch black darker than darkest black it seemed to glow, his eyes, oh those eyes, they seemed emerald green, seemed, they looked like a emerald shining in the sun with a blue ring that was very faint but mad his eyes pop even more, but if you looked close enough you could see that that you could not describe that green, you could not put into words how it looked, you could not describe the color, vibrance, The powerful glow these eyes had, you would put them to shame by describing them, you cannot imagine how they looked. His features looked as if he was a God, an angel. His eyes held intelligence that was not of his age he seemed too old for his babyish looks, he had no baby fat seems as if he lost it all, this boy was pure perfection, you couldn't put him into words. Harry's godfathers are Severus Snape and Frank Longbottom, his godmother is Narcissa Malfoy and Alice Longbottom. Edward came out loud Harry didn't the doctor had to make sure he was alive. He was too quiet for a baby much too quiet. Sitting there holding my children I felt as if someone was watching, someone of great importance was witnessing my children.I would never know who that person was I was too caught up in the love I feel for them, my children

Tom Riddle POV October 31, 1981
I knew I should not do this, I knew this was wrong, this child did not deserve it, after all he is just one. But in order to bring the magical world back from the dead I would need to live to see it though. If this prophesies child defeated me then it will all be for nothing, all these sacrifices would be I vain, they would be for nothing I... yes I had to do this to bring our world from the dark. I walked to the front gate slowly making sure to mask my magical signature. I turned to the gate and pushed it open, loud creaking was heard through the street, oh no they heard, a crash is heard in the house. I walked faster to the house, my wand at the ready, I will not be killing ones that did not need to be killed. I will leave three out of the four potters alive only one sacrifice is needed. I opened the door to find lily potter running up the stairs with the infamous twins and James potter pointing his wand at me. He was surprised at my appearance I did not look like the snake man Dumbledore said I did I looked like Tom Riddle my brown hair that shines in the light a golden color with my natural brown/Amber colored eyes. He was shocked long enough for me to knock him out with a spell. He crumbled to the ground and in a heap of limbs. I followed Lily up the stairs to the children's nursery. I open the door to see her crying over them telling them how much she loves them how she will always protect them. She turns around and sees me, also shocked, she doesn't move. "Move girl, now or I will move you myself" I told her in a voice I do not like using. She shook her head fiercely saying " no no no no spare them please spare them take me not my babies". I hit her with the same spell, with her falling to the floor, I walked to the children The first crib said Edward jr. this boy had brown hair, brown eyes, and an annoying voice screeching loudly through the house, Closing my eyes I try to sense the magic coming from the boy seeing if he's the one to defeat me, no barely any magic coming off the baby just enough to keep him from being a squib I think to myself. I go to the next babies crib Harry James Potter. This boy had black hair that gleamed in the dark, intense killing curse colored eyes the seem to stare into my soul I held the child's stare for a few seconds before i started to feel uncomfortable so I looked away, doing the same I did to the last baby, I close my eyes trying to since the magic coming of him, it's coming off him in heaps and bounds, yes he was the one he was the one defeat me. This child Harry James Potter wasn't even making a sound he seemed to be... glaring at me? No not possible children could not do that. I turned to him and say "I'm so sorry my child if the world was not how was today you would be able to live a happy life with your family, you would be a great Wizard, probably change the world, I'm so sorry if I knew you would join my side when you got older I would not do this I would not... I will carry this burden with me throughout my years I will remember you every day, child you will not be forgotten I will mourn you too my days end, I am truly sorry if you would join my side when you're older I would not do this if I could know what your future holds I would not...I am truly..really truly sorry my boy... Avada Kedavra" the green spell that was the color of his boys eyes speed towards the him then something amazing happened a shield that bubbled with magic and life and was the color of silver, black, gray and gold shining around the boy just as it hit his forehead and forming and scarring in the shape of a Lightning bolt. I could still see his stare when the spell was shot back at me, before it hit me the child seemed to say two words "I'm sorry". This shocked my most of all, maybe I should have just taken him and raised him.
Third person POV
The spell hit Tom Riddle in the chest not killing him,no, because a piece of his soul stuck to Harry thinking it needed to protect him. The soul let Harrys magic's absorb it making him all the stronger. Backlash of harry shield destroyed the room, a piece of wood from the crib and roof hit edward making a V on his cheek. Harry fell back exhausted from the shield and use of his magic, fell asleep with his dark gleaming hair in his face. Edward lays awake screaming because of the scratch of the magical wood making it a scar. Sirius and Remus run through the door to find James just waking up from the stunner spell... " where..wher..LILY THE BOYS... " he yelled running up the stairs to find his wife in the floor, Edward crying and Harry sleeping. He ran and picked up lily and Edward seeming to forget about Harry. Severus just arrived and ran up the stairs to find James with lily in his arms and Edward on the floor with them. He saw harry asleep in his crib. Severus ran to his godchild making sure he's ok, thank Merlin he's ok,he thought to himself. Just then Dumbledore walks through the door smiling with that sparkle in his eye. Lily on the floor coming to and holding edward. Sirius,Remus, and Severus couldn't help but sneer at him, Sirius found out what dumbledore was up to about two years ago when his brother was killed, Sirius told Remus and Severus had know for years now because he is a 'death eater', really he's just going to the side he saw fit. They know he is just a manipulative, power hunger old git who ruins people's life everyday.
Severus Snape POV
That old man just walked in the house like everything was ok, I was so mad that James and lily didn't even think to check on Harry, it's all that old mans fault telling them those lies. I feel Harry moving around in my arms trying to get up still not making a sound.Sirius and Remus started walking over here and stood beside me. We became friends once they showed up pledging themselves to tom's side.Harry opens his eyes to reveal a big shock he didn't seem to know he had one of the most powerful wizards soul in his magical core now. His eyes have an inhuman glow to them but oh thats not all, his right eye has his normal indescribable, killing curse, green and his left has a bright amber, the same color of our friend Toms eyes, the same amber of 'lord Voldemort's'. Harry binks once,twice and then their back to there glowing killing curse green. I hear Sirius's breath Hitch, and Remus gasped. "This...this means Tom...Tom is not here, that shard of his soul is in Harry, why would that happen, we can't let anyone know guys,no one" I told them with a commanding tone, both of them nod. I start paying attention what dumb-as-a-door is telling lily and James. "...I declare Edward James Potter jr. the-boy-who-lived.. ". Oh no he didn't, such stupid mistakes this man makes.
Third person POV
That decision changed history, changed the original plan of the fates, the boys were now separated and treated differently Edward became famous for something he didn't do and Harry was left in the shadows, forgotten from the world except for Sirius,Remus and Severus.
Authors note: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the characters they belong to the wonderful J.K ROWLING
