Chapter 1

Acquisition of a New Power

"Lily! Go, Voldemort found us!" yelled James to his wife while he faced the main door with grim determination set in his face. Ready to protect the people he cherished the most, his family with his life.

Lily upon arriving at the boys' room found her eldest child, Harry, cradling his younger brother Christopher.

"Mum, what is going on?" asked Harry despite his age being only 3 years, he has a better grasp on his surroundings compared to most kids.

"Everything is good, son. Just promise me you will always protect your brother, Chris," uttered Lily.

Harry seeing his Mum's face and the seriousness in her voice could only nod his head. After, a while they heard a booming sound and some scuffle outside the bedroom. A tense silence ensued which was only broken by a hissing and loud voice that cause shivers across Lily's spine.

"Sssstupefy!" hissed by an unknown voice to Harry outside and they heard someone falling on the floor.

Lily was surprised that Voldemort did not kill her husband and that increased her resolve and determination to give her life to her sons since she knew James will be there to take care of their sons while she passed on. She kept pondering on why Voldemort did not kill her husband. However, her train of thought was disrupted by the sound of an exploding door. She casted a shield charm to protect themselves from the wooden shrapnel.

"Protego," Lily shouted. When the debris and dust settled, what she saw on the doorway sent chills to her bone hoped that reinforcement would come. Voldemort, did multiple rituals on himself to increase his magical power and potency that made him look hideous and inhuman. With balding head, eyes glowing red with black iris slits and a nose of a snake that dilated when he breathes.

"Step aside little girl," sad the monster in front of her while brandishing his wand preparing to dismantle the shield charm.

Lily did not reply but her visage says it all to Voldemort. That she is ready to fight for her sons, like a lioness protecting her cub.

"Ssso be it filthy Mudblood," Voldemort hissed. Then he started battering Lily's shield with pure magic, a feat that can be used only by those with incredible amount of magic in their veins.

"Harry, remember your promise. Take care of Christopher. Whatever happens tonight, always remember that your father and I love the both of you," whispered Lily to her kids. She kissed her sons on the top of their heads and prepared herself to the hardest fight of her life. She suddenly turned around when she heard a sound of shattering glasses and was horrified going directly towards her is an overpowered red beam. When she was hit, she slumped down to the ground unconscious. Before unconsciousness hits her, she saw his son put Christopher under the bed to hide him and she thought to herself because of desperation. Please give my son, Harry, the power to protect his love ones. I am willing to give up my magic just for this to happen. Whoever is listening, please.

Unknown to Lily, her magic responded to her wish. A cloud of her magic enveloped Harry and opened up his nodes.

An aura surrounded Harry while he was trying to reach her mother.

"Mum!" Harry shouted. Seeing her mom still breathing he turned around to face the intruder that caused the destruction of their house.

"You! Who are you? What have you done to my Mum and Dad?," shouted Harry without any signs of fear in his eyes.

"I am Lord Voldemort! I am here to kill you to prevent the prophecy from happening. Now, die you filthy half-blood! Avada Kedavra!" replied Voldemort.

As the green light travels to Harry, his aura grabbed the spell in mid-air. A power struggle between Lord Voldemort and the boy of the prophecy occurred. Sparks flew and a piece of Voldemort's spell was able to pass through hitting Harry on his forehead creating a lightning bolt scar. Distressed with the situation, Harry, unconsciously called for more of his aura and he was able to flung back the spell Voldemort casted, hitting Voldemort squarely on his chest.

"NO!," Voldemort shouted, then his body turned into ash and a dark shade flew out of the ashes. The shade looked around and saw Harry swaying on his feet nearly unconscious.

"You will pay for this booooyyyyy!" Shade Voldemort rushed toward Harry. He was able to push Harry into the hallway when suddenly a flash of light that enveloped the whole house and a small explosion that caused the bed where Christopher is to collapse that wounded Chris on his right arm, which will become a crescent moon scar in the future.
