What if Harry wasn't the only child to survive the night his parents died? What if the other child was a girl, who vanished after the inciddent only to reappear at Hogwarts, later? What's her story? Why is she so distant to everyone? Does she know what happened that night?
What if
A red haired, brown eyed woman, wearing blue robes, carried a one year old girl, as she walked to a house in Godric Hollow. A red haired, green eyed woman answered the door. After a brief exchange of words, the occupant of the house takes the girl.
The girl had light blond hair (almost white) and cyan blue eyes. There was a heart shaped scar on her left hand. Her name was Selene Lunaria.
The occupant was Lily Potter. She was married to James Potter and bore a son Harry Potter. The boy had his father's looks but his mother's eyes.
Lily took Selene into the room where Harry was. The two got along. They played all day. That night Harry's parents were killed. When Lily was killed, Harry and Selene fell from her arms. The murder, none other than Voldemort, turned his wand to Harry and Selene. "Avada Kedavra!" A green light shot out of his wand, but when it got close to them it richetts back at him. Harry recieved a lightning bolt shaped scar while Selene's hair turned completely white.
The woman from eariler returned. To her horror Selene was gone. Hagird arrived shortly after the woman left.
Selene woke up, wrapped in several blankets. She immediately began crying. A frail japanese woman opened her door to see who was making the racket. She was surprised to see a baby on her door step. She took Selene in. Her place ended up being an ophanage. Besides the blankets was a locket and a letter accompanied Selene.
Ten years later, Selene laid awake on her bed. Her hair was still snowy white, but now was at her waist. He cyan blue eyes were now sapphire blue.
Today's my birthday,great, she thought sarcasticly.
About five girls burst into the room. Selene bolted out of bed to the window. With her left hand behind her back, she unlocked the window.
"Selene, do you know what today is?" they asked simultameously.
"Wednesday," Selene answered dully.
No, stupid, today is your eleventh birthday," said a blond girl.
"Oh, I assumed you forgot what day of the week it was not what the date was."
"Girls, it looks llike someone needs to be taught a lesson."
"Breakfast!" a voice yelled into the intercom.
"We'll finish this after breakfast," said the blond.
With that the girls left. Selene changed into a pair of jeans and a tee-shirt, and ran to the dining hall. As Selene sat down, a red haired, brown eyed woman, wearing a blue blouse and white slacks, walked into the orphanage. The caretaker looked shocked.
"I'm looking for a Selene Lunaria," said the woman as she scaned the room.
Her eyes paused on Selene. What happened to her?, she thought.
"I have full-custody over her," she continued.
"Let me see the papers," said the caretaker.
After a few minutes she said, "These are valid legal documents. Lunaria, go pack your bags and report to my office."
Selene dashed to her room, grabbed her knapsack and packed. She ran to the caretaker's office with her bag. The caretaker and the woman were already seated. Selene took a seat.
"Lunaria, as you know, Miss Suou found you. What you don't know is there was a locket around your neck," said the caretaker as she searched for the locket.
When it was found, she handed the locket to Selene. Selene stared at it while she held it. The woman bid the caretaker good bye.
An hour later, Selene stood in front of a huge house (in fact it was a mansion). Her new home was in the country. Selene walked in with the woman shortly behind her.
"Selene, we need to talk. Let's find your room first," said the woman.
"Okay," said Selene.
Once in the room, the woman sat in a chair while Selene sat on the bed.
"Selene, my name is Artmisia Shamira. Your parents were killed before you reached one," said the woman.
"Man, I've been at that cursed orphanage. They were killed? By who?" said Selene.
"A wizard named Voldemort."
"A wizard?"
"Yes, a wizard. They still exist. You're one; a witch I mean."
"That can't be true."
"Can you honestly tell me there has never been something that happened and you weren't able to explain."
Selene sat there and thought about it.
Sure, there was a bird who would show up every night and sing her to sleep along with crying on her wounds from the other orphans who loved beating her. There was that one time, those five girls from this morning, where they cut her hair terribly. The next morning it grew back.
"See, you are one," said Artemisia.
"Why doesn't everyone know about wizards and witches?" asked Selene.
"We prefere to live in peace, just like most people."
"Why doesn't the general public know?
"Everyone would be wanting magical solutions."
"Why are you my guardian?"
"My family has always protected your clan. Though that will change once you're died."
"Why?"
"You are the last of Lunaria. Do you want to explore by yourself or with me?"
"Myself."
"Have fun, then."
