October 31st, 1981
Lily and James were in the sitting room, watching Harry ride his toy broomstick across the room. Suddenly, they heard a rustle outside…
Both of them got alert and James yelled, "LILY, IT'S HIM! TAKE HARRY AND GO." Lily obeyed and took Harry up to his room. She heard the door open and some dueling downstairs. Finally, she heard the thud of a body. Lily knew that Voldemort had killed James.
Voldemort entered the room, black robes and hooded face. Lily pleaded with the red eyes to kill her instead of Harry, but Voldemort didn't listen. He just stunned Lily and went for Harry…
1 hour later
Lily awoke to the sight of James at the foot of their bed, Harry in his arms. "What happened?", asked Lily. "Voldemort just stunned me, and I thought he'd done the same to you. I think his aim was to kill Harry, no one else. It seems most unlike him.. We need to tell Dumbledore about Peter's betrayal." James went off to the sitting room to send their owl, Travis, to Dumbledore.
