Chapter 2
1980
Today's the day, the day that James and Lily Potter were to become parents. Though they had taken Dumbledore's warning to heart, they had chosen to wait until after the birth of their son to go into hiding. Their location had already been chosen, thinking that everyone would expect them to leave, they cleverly chose to remain in Godric's Hollow.
Now, here they were. James and Lily were in the delivery room, with Sirius, Remus and Peter, waiting impatiently in the waiting room. It had been a hard labor for Lily, though none could tell her why. The answer to her and James' questions were soon to be answered. At 11:52 pm on July 31, Harry James Potter came into the world with a faint cry. Harry, born as a spitting image of his father with his mothers eyes.
As Harry was being cleaned and prepared to meet his new parents, Lily felt a sharp pain shoot across her stomach. One that felt far to similar to the contractions she had just been feeling for comfort.
As Lily cried out, the Mediwizard hurriedly resumed his position between Lily's legs, looking, trying to see what the problem was. After a few short moments, he looked up and without explanation, ordered Lily to push once again. Though there was confusion on James' face as well as her's, she obeyed.
At 12:05 am on August 1, another cry rang out in the silent hospital room. Though no one could explain how, there had been another child sharing the womb with Harry. And within the first few minutes of Lammas, Harry's twin sister was born. Briony Lily Potter, born to be the spitting image of her mother with her father's eyes.
One child born male, the other female. One child the likeness of the father, the other the mother. One born with a quiet cry, the other loud. Equal but opposite in every way, yet no one could even dream that this would ever have any meaning on their lives.
