Long ago today, on Halloween, two brave people sacrificed their lives for their son.

Long ago today, on Halloween, the Golden Trio fought their first battle together. That very first battle would save the Wizarding World one day.

Long ago today, on Halloween, the three best friends discovered writings in blood on the wall, and their least favorite cat Petrified.

Long ago today, on Halloween, the Goblet of Fire unwittingly made a decision that affected the rest of the Wizarding World and beyond.

Long ago today, on Halloween, the Trio sat together in a small, cramped tent in the countryside plotting ways to be rid of the most evil wizard the world has ever seen once and for all.

We've come far, Potterheads. Let us appreciate this day for Lily and James' sacrifice, for that dumb, blundering troll, for the blind choosing of the Goblet, and for the sheer strength of our young heroes.

Harry Potter may have ended, but its spirit will never be. May the Boy Who Lived live on, forever, in all our hearts. May this magnificent era never be gone, because Harry Potter will only truly be gone from this world, when none here are loyal to it. And may the magic that Joanne Kathleen Rowling created never ever stop.

Let's continue this the way we started it, Potterheads. Together!


AN: In honor of Halloween, I wrote this chapter. It's not really Lily/James, nor Marauder Era, but I thought I should do something in tribute. So I did this. Hope you all liked it. Don't worry, James is still going to learn about Muggles in the next chapter, I haven't forgotten about him xD Speaking of Halloween, was it just me, or were the neighbors really frugal this year? I mean, some people gave me toothbrushes and crayons o.o But that aside, I've got enough candy to last me approximately…five months now, if I can hold myself back and eat only two per day. I doubt I'll be sticking by that rule though.

Enjoy the remainder of your Halloween!
