A Life Not Worth Wanting
By Demon_Child.
An Alternate Universe Fic.
Prologue: A Different Life.
It was another Stormy February night, as Lilian Rose Evans Potter lay on her death bed. Her 5-year-old son, Harold James Potter, held her hand, tears forming in his emerald green eyes, as his 'grandfather', Albus Dumbledore, stood by. Lily gave her son a soft, beautiful smile, and spoke in a horse whisper, which to Harry, was the most wonderful sound in the world.
"Baby boy, dry your tears. I love you with all of my heart, and don't your ever forget it." Harry let out another sob. He was rather smart for his age, and knew exactly what was happening. "Albus," She spoke in the same voice, deathly pale, "take care of my boy, will you? Let him grow up at Hogwarts, and have the childhood he deserves."
Albus gave her a reassuring smile. "Of course I will, my dear." Came his reply, as he gently kissed her forehead, as her eyes closed for the last time. Time of death: 11:36 p.m. The boy-who-lived was offically an orphan. Albus held Harry that night, allowing the boy to sob for his mama. He knew, at that moment, that he was responsible for him, and Albus Dumbledore was going to protect him with his life.
A few days later, Harry's belongings were packed up, and shipped off to Hogwarts. Dumbledore held his grandson, and gently, nudged him away from his home. The beautiful Potter mansion, that Harry was to own when he turned 18, but until then, he was to live in a whole new place, with new people. That's a pretty scary thing for a 5-year-old, who watched his mother die. Harry, the boy-who-lived, would have one incredible life.
Chapter One: A Dead Father, A Lost Mother.
Idea: the first part of our Harry's life, from birth, to this point. It should be out in about a week and a half, maybe two, if you guys like the prologue. Sorry it's so short!!!! Here's a small preview of Chapter one:
There was a soft cry heard, and next thing James knew, he was a father. "It's a boy" the nurse announced happily, as James, Sirius, Remus and Peter rushed to see the first baby of the four. Little did they know that he would be the only one. They excitedly admired the baby boy, who's brillant emerald-green eyes sparkled back at the four men.
"Congrats, Jamsie." Sirius whispered, as both Lily and James smiled back at him.
"Sirius, we would love it if you became our Harry's godfather." Sirius Black, for the first time, was silent. The others cracked up, as he gaped at his best friend, in shock. "Why me?" Came Sirius' reply, once the shock loosened. "Because, Siri, we cant trust the other two, they'd probably torture our poor sun. We want you to take him, if anything ever happened to us." All Sirius Elliott Black could do, was nod as the only reply. Sirius Black, was offically the godfather to one Harold James Potter.
