I was sitting at my desk when I suddenly heard a cry that made me jump, splattering ink all over my parchment. "Damn..." I muttered as I looked down at the inky letter to my best friend, Sirius.
I slowly got up and made my way into my son's bedroom, where the cry had come from. I smiled seeing my beautiful wife, Lily, and my Son, Harry. As I entered the room, I put an arm around Lily's waist and smiled down at Harry.
After Harry had fallen asleep, Lily placed him in the crib and looked at me with worried eyes. I put my hand up to her face and gently kissed her. "Don't worry, He-who-must-not-be-named wont find us, our secret is safe with Wormtail. I trust him with our lives." I said as if able to read her mind, attempting to comfort her.
She smiled at me, "Yes, I know... Only, I have a bad feeling. Like something is going to happen."
"Don't worry, were safe." I paused remembering the owl I had just received, "Oh yea. Padfoot and Wormtail both have some business to take care of, and it's a full moon; so tonight we wont have any company."
She nodded, "OK..." She said before glancing at the door, "I'm going to go make dinner..." She kissed me and I mutely nodded.
Wand in hand, she made her way down to the kitchen and I sat by the warm fire reading a book I had been meaning to finish for the last few days. After a few minutes I smelled a delightful aroma, and heard Lily call me into the kitchen.
I quickly put down the book and walked into the kitchen, as she left to get Harry. I sat down at the table waiting for her to return, as I heard someone come into the door.
Not sure of whom it was I quickly got up and was about to walk into he living room, to see who our visitor was. But as I looked to the doorway, I saw the last thing I expected. The Dark Lord, Voldemort standing in our doorway from the kitchen to the living room. He attacked me several times, yet I was able to dodge the attacks, but broke several chairs in the process.
My wand was upstairs; I had left it in the bedroom. I was doomed. Forgetting magic, I tackled him and engaged in a fistfight. That didn't last long. He was impressively strong, and through me across the room, where I hit a wall.
I looked back up at him, where I saw something in back of him moving. I gasped, realizing I was Lily and Harry. "Lily!" I yelled, "Get out of here... You and Harry have to get out of here!" But she just stayed there and wouldn't leave. What was she doing!
It was then; I heard the inevitable words, and the last two words I would ever hear in my life. "Avadra Kadavra!" I didn't even see the green light come out of Voldemort's wand, the spell hit me so fast, and I was dead before I knew it.
************************
As a spirit, I had no choice but to watch Voldemort attack Lily and Harry. Lily ran as quickly as she could to the door, but Voldemort was too fast. He grabbed her and through her to the ground.
She was holding close to Harry pleading for his life. "Don't hurt him! Please no! Kill me, but don't touch my son! He's merely a baby!" She pleaded. But I had known long ago, Voldemort was a heartless monster that wouldn't even spare the baby.
Lily because hysterical in tears as Voldemort pointed his wand at them. She rolled over; her body covering Harry's as Voldemort muttered the killing curse once again.
It hit her in the back and she was with me within seconds. Tears were streaming down both of our cheeks, as was watched the last of the Potters about to be murdered.
She couldn't stand it as she barried her head in my shirt and I stroked her neck. But she turned to watch once again as Voldemort muttered the killing curse a third time.
Tears were streaming down my cheeks, and she was hysterical as the impossible happened. The curse didn't murder Harry, the green light bounced off the baby's forehead, merely leaving him with a lightning shaped scar on his forehead, and rebounded back into Voldemort.
I was dumbfounded. Had Voldemort died? He couldn't have. I had well known that long ago that Voldemort had conquered death. But he disappeared, or did he? I had seen something-frantically slither out of the house.
Our spirits watched the scene of a destroyed house, two dead bodies, and an infant crying; until Dumbledor, Snape, Hagrid, and the others arrived. It was then, when we knew Harry would be safe; we went up to heaven, where we watched over our son, from the clouds.
Authors Note: Hey everyone! Thanx for the reviews on the story in Lily's point of view! Sorry for the miss spellings, I think I got rid of them in the version! I wrote this instead of my gym essay, so I hope a review isn't too much to ask. ^_^ The next point of view I am going to write this in will be wither Wormtail (Peter), Sirius, or Lupin. I am not sure yet, But I am not sure when I will have time to write it, High School can get in the way sometime... so please be patient, I may have it posted as early as tomorrow, or today, or as late as a week. And PLEASE don't flame me!
