HARRY POTTER FAN FIC
Love, Hate and Lust
One morning a young lady awoke to a dull, rainy day. Normally she would hear her mother rushing around the kitchen cooking breakfast but no, there was no sign of movement downstairs. She looked at her alarm clock which now said 07:34. Deciding it was time to wake up and go downstairs to check everything was ok, she grabbed her gown and slowly made her way downstairs. She froze. Her mother was lying there motionless on the floor of the hall. There didn't seem to be any physical damage done to the body. Any other person would think that this murder was committed by using poison or she might have had a heart attack. But Lily Evans knew what actually happened. Lord Voldemort had murdered her mother. Lily fought back tears, her eyes were burning at the sight of her poor mother lying lifelessly on the floor. Voldemort had killed both her parents: her father the day she had got her Hogwarts letter and now, 7 years later and 3 days before she returned to Hogwarts he killed her mother. Petunia was right. It was her fault their parents were dead. She was a freak. Lily walked to her motionless mother and pulled her into a tight hug. What seemed like hours later Lily still hadn't moved a muscle. The door bell rang but Lily didn't have the energy to answer it and it didn't seem like her body would let her. 2 minutes later the door bell rang again and Lily managed 2 say
"It's open" between sobs. A man with a long silver beard wearing navy blue robes walked in. He had strange eyes, they looked as though they had no life in them. Lily flinched as she was reminded of her mother.
"Lily I am so sorry" Dumbledore said. After another minutes silence he went over and held out a hand so she could get up. For the first time that day she looked at him in the eyes.
"Why them"?
Dumbledore looked sympathetic as she took his hand. She stood looking down at her feet.
"Lily, Voldemort commits murders himself to only people he thinks are threatening and important"
'Well derr' Lily thought, 'of course their important their my parents'. She remained still so Dumbledore spoke again.
"It seems to me that Voldemort got his theory wrong, you see, Godric Gryffindor, as you know is one of the most powerful wizards of all time. He and Salazar Slytherin were somewhat enemies after Slytherin abandoned his fellow friends. Not everybody knows this but Godric brought Slytherin to his death. Since then, every generation has had somebody that will vanquish the dark lord of their time-if there is one. Gryffindor killed Slytherin, I killed Grindelwald and you Lily, you must kill Voldemort. They both stared at each other trying to read the others thoughts.
"But that still doesn't explain why he killed my parents" Lily said in a somewhat confused manner. "Ahhh that is the part of the theory he has misunderstood. Voldemort thinks that only the heir of Gryffindor can vanquish him, therefore he thought that the Evans family were the heirs to the enemy of his ancestor".
"Professor, that's silly because my parents are muggles, he knew I was a muggle born and why didn't he kill me as well"? a worried Lily stated.
"Because, Lily, the one who will vanquish the Dark Lord shall be protected from harms way until the day they become of age, if I am correct is tomorrow"?
Lily nodded. 'this is to much to take in at the moment'
"Miss Evans, It will not be safe for you to stay here any longer. Since Voldemort has disposed of your parents and you will have no way of getting to Hogwarts, would you like to come back to school with me for the rest of the summer? this way you will be safe and will have no troubles in coming to school"
For the first time that day Lily smiled and Dumbledore's eyes glistened.
"I'd love to!" Lily quickly said.
"Lovely, now we will also have the Potters and Mr Black present at the castle. James is the Head Boy this year and I hope this will give you some time to improve your relationship" Dumbledore said with a tad ofcheek in his tone. 'Great this will be fun' Lilythought as they apparated to Hogsmeade.
