Chapter 1
In the Beginning of the End
The shadows cast by the gravestones were stretching across the grass in the evening light. Here stood a young adult, looking at a gravestone. He didn't seem sad or tearful, but he had a greedy look on his face. He was wearing a pitch black robe and cloak that had a few tears in it. A week old newspaper flew past with the headline:
Whole family killed, no sign of injury
The man's name is, Albus Severus Potter. He had gone on the run; going up and down the country avoiding getting caught and being sent to, the wizarding prison, Azkaban. The reason is that he had murdered his family, two weeks ago, looking for a rare object his dad told stories about. Now, Albus has come to this graveyard looking for a special symbol on the head of a gravestone. There it was, getting darker and darker as the dying sun descended over the graveyard wall. Here it is. Albus thought, murmuring, "Lumos." under his breath. The end of his wand lit up and he pointed it at the stone. Rubbing the moss away from the etched symbol. Seeing what he came here for. He stood up straight, muttered "Nox", walked through the kissing gates which he closed behind him and headed across the square. The square had a statue in the middle, of a man with glasses and scruffy hair; standing beside him was a lady with long hair carrying a baby. Albus' dad had said that the statue was of his mother and father and the baby was him. How alike his dad and his grandfather looked, the same scruffy hair and glasses. Albus had greasy hair which his dad had mentioned looked like Severus Snape's. He walked on past the statue, heading towards the street behind it.
He looked at the houses and cottages and stopped outside the house he had known all his life. Pushed the gate open and walked up to the front door. He turned the handle. It was locked. He pointed his wand at the lock and whispered, "Alohomora". There was a quiet click and the door opened. He stepped in then closed the door. He was in the sitting room; it was very dark but could make out the few remaining items left in the room. The other stuff had been taken away and given to Lily who had a house in Cornwall, with her husband, Matt Slovange and their only son, Sam. Albus didn't want to think about her and the news she must have got about the family. He edged into the room being alert for anything out of place. There was a broken picture frame on the floor, Albus picked it up and dropped it instantly. In the picture was himself as a baby, grinning and smiling. Albus then started looking around for the object that he came back to the house for; a resurrection stone his dad had talked about in his travels. He looked through all of the drawers and cupboards in the kitchen, all three bedrooms and the sitting room, but found nothing. Albus then muttered "Accio resurrection stone". Nothing moved. He had expected this. He turned, and then left the house and apparated past the gate.
