Severus' POV
My feet sprang into action as soon as the first window shattered. I ran up the narrow staircase and into the dark hallway. 'Lily!' I yelled still moving. I had to get to them, I had to get to Lily and our daughter.
Cracks were starting to form in the walls beside me as I ran even faster than before. My eyes continually scanned each room I passed, but my heart was set on the nursery. 'Lily!' I yell again. This time there was a scream. 'Severus!' she screamed. My heart was slamming against my rib cage.
I arrived at the door to the nursery to find it was locked. My fists pounded at the door until I heard another scream, the scream of my child. My hand found its way to my wand, and without hesitation I pointed it at the lock. 'Alohomora'
I burst into the room to find a dark cloaked wizard standing before a body on the ground, the body of Lily. My mouth gaped open for a second. 'You bastard!' I yelled pointing my wand at the wizard. He turned with a wicked smile on his face. Voldemort.
My eyes fixed on my child who sat in her cot screaming and crying at her mother. My heart broke. 'Expelliarmus' Voldemort chanted and my wand flew out of my hand. 'There, there, Severus' he said walking towards me. 'Why…' I cried, staring at lily. 'Things are not as they seem Severus' he hissed. And with that, he disappeared through the already shattered window. I dropped to my knees and held Lily in my arms. 'Sev' she whispered. 'You're alive' I whispered back. She gave a small smile back through her bloodied face. 'Why did he spare you?' I asked. 'I don't know' she replied.
I helped her up and onto a chair. 'Narissa' she whispered. I turned and walked over to the cot to grab our now silent daughter. 'Her forehead' Lily gasped. Narissa's right side of her forehead now had a lightening shaped wound. One that would last forever.
