Chapter One: Harry's Journal

My quill has been sitting at the top of this page for about ten minutes now because I cant decide what to write. So many thoughts are processing in my head right now.

Why?

This is the question I've been asking myself since I found out what actually happened to my parents and the reasons behind it. But now that I know, I wish I didn't.

Ignorance is bliss... I now totally understand what this statement means. I only wish that I can experience again.

I suppose that it is important that I know what is going on even though I would rather hide and act like everything is normal.

But I'm a Griffindor and I will stand up tall and defend everything that I deem worthy of protection. That is what I believe in and I cant ignore that part of myself. I couldn't save My godfather, but I will not let Voldemort take any more of the people I love.

Gods, its still hurts terribly to even ponder of Sirius. He was the only person I could talk to completely. Even Ron and Hermione didn't fill that role in my life. Don't get me wrong, They are my best friends but I cant divulge certain information to them because usually their reactions is the wrong kind of support that I need.

Speaking of secrets I keeping from My friends, the prophecy. The thing that has been haunting me since I learned about it over two months ago.

Kill or be killed.

Could I really kill another person?

Yes.

To kill Voldemort, I would do it. He killed my parents, many other innocent people and tried on many occasions to kill me. He is so evil and to top it off he is the biggest hypocrite that I have every had the unfortunate luck of meeting. His main goal in the wizardly world is to rid the wizardly world of muggleborns and half bloods. And he himself is a half blood.

There would be one thing I would ask lucius if I got the chance to. Why would all these purebloods follow the leadership of someone they were trying to get rid of?

Well I need to go to bed now because Aunt Petunia is going to get me up early again to do more chores.

Good night.

Maybe I'll sleep tonight.
