Prologue; Alive

In the long term ward at St Mungos is there a door, with a secret behind it. The door are coloured in a boring hospital white colour, and if you didn't pay any attention to the door you might just as well walk right by it, but if you do pay attention to the door, and stop to read the sign you might as well realize what's behind the door.

The sign are also white, but in a greyer tone than the door. The name on sign is in pitch black letters, and it reads "J. Potter".

If you proceed through the door, which usually are locked to the public eye, you might not find who you originally thought were behind this door. Yes, you have heard about the sad destiny of James Potter and his wife, and the wonderful, but unbelievable, thing that their one year old son Harry Potter managed to do, which happened over twelve years and six months ago.

But this person behind the door aren't James Potter or his wife, it's someone, in fact, that are related to James, someone who meant a lot to him, someone who were close to him. Someone who went into this state a long time before Harry Potter even was born.

One the bed inside this room is a girl lying; she looks to be just about 18 to 17 year old, and if you are old enough to remember how life was before Harry Potter came, you get a flashback, and you remember what the "J" on the door stands for, you remember that it doesn't stand for James, but that it stands for Jessica.

This is Jessica Potter, the sister of James Potter.

At first sight of her might think that she's sleeping, but if you really do remember the reason for why she ended up in this room, you know that's she's not breathing, or that her heart's beating. You may not know this but her hair will never grow, neither will her nails. You're quite right if you point out that this is the signs of a dead person, but she's not dead. So she's alive? The simple answer is no to this one as well.

She's neither dead nor alive, it's like she's on the edge between life and death, she's being pulled into both direction and it's not decided who'll win, and neither of the sides are willing to let go of her.

How she ended up in this situation is very complicated, the only witness to the event is James Potter and he got a blow to the head and didn't remember anything. Expert healers who have specialized themselves into this case have said to believe that she was hit with two curses at the same time, the killing curse and a stunner, since she was hit at the very exact same time, down to the very micro second. They have named this state for a "stunner without a reverse". And the same healers don't know if she'll ever wake up from this state, they just have to wait and see.

Its night, the clock on the wall shows 03;16, the date is may sixth, the year is 1994 , it's at this exact moment that you hear the first beep, first you wonder what happened, but shortly you realize that the beep came from the wireless monitor next to the bed. Another beep comes, and after a pause third beep comes, and after and even shorter the fourth beep comes.

And now you realize why the machine beeps, it's because her heart started to beat again. The beeping is now coming in a more rhythmic beat and just a few seconds after this her eyes open. She opens her eyes wide and gasped for a deep breath.

On the morning of May sixth 1994, Jessica Potter returns to life.
