A/N: If you havent looked at my siggy then you probably wont know that I might change the name of this ficcy. But I want YOUR opinions. Should I keep the name, or change it to ' James Potter and the Emerald Elfstone.' See the emerald would have some significance to Lily's eyes, so I dunno. I need to figure out what im doing school wise first. 3 projects due, all within 2 weeks, and two are practically impossible. Im doomed... Save me.. REVIEW... Please. adios. R/R

~*~ The Potter's ~*~

" Im bored," exclaimed a very...well...bored Rose Potter. " With James gone, there's nothing to do. Nobody to prank, to get in trouble, and to push off the ladder. Im bored."

Logiain smiled at his daughter. Her and James were always close, even though one was a boy and the other a girl. Call it a twin thing.

Logiain sighed. ' Things sure are dull around without James and those other little devils.'

It was 3 weeks after James and crew had left with the mysterious Allanon. Despite Allanons warnings, nothing bad had happened in the village.

Unless you can call Sirius Aunt Shirl running through town looking for him exciting. Though you had to admit. Seeing such a high maintaince lady running around the streets smelling of skunk and shrieking, ' Sirius Black, when I get my hands on you I'll....' He laughed at the memory. Poor Shirl was VERY angry when she learned that Sirius had left just the day before with James. Everyone thought she was going to have a heart attack, turning all red and screaming.

Just then the door to the inn opened, the bell giving a small jingle.

Rose looked at her father, both thinking the same thing.

' No one ever comes in this late.'

It was around 10 and it had been dark out for a few hours now.

" I'll get it," Logiain told Rose, who just nodded and got up from the floor.

Logiain walked through the kitchen into the dining room, and finally into the common room. What he found surprised him.

The common room was... empty.

No one was there.

No one at all.

No late night straggelers getting a drink or talking before bed.

Empty.

But, that wasnt right.

He would have heard the bell if someone went in or out. And someone had to have come in. No one left and wandered around during the night, it just wasnt safe, so close to the forest and all.

Logiain looked around the room once more, just to make sure he didnt miss anyone, shrugged, and headed back into the kitchen. Just when he was a few feet from the dining room door, he heard rustling behind him.

He spun around and surveyed the room.

Empty, once more.

' What is going on?'

Just when he was about to turn around and declare himself insane, two shadows detached themselves from the others. Logiain gasped.

Before Allanon left, he had shown him visions of evil men in black cloaks. Apparently that was what he was running from, and what he told the Potter family to watch out for.

' Family.. ROSE... MARIANNE... oh Light.'

He sprinted from the room and closed the door behind him, trying to block it with a chair and table. Then he ran into the kitchen, he could hear the the handle jingling behind him.

When he entered the kitchens his worst nightmare was confirmed.. well maybe not his worst, but close to it.

There on the floor lay his wife, motionless. Rose was no where to be seen. Over in a corner lay 3 more of the hooded figures.

Logiain felt hot fury coursing through his veins.

' They killed them. My wife, Rose.. Oh Light..'

Just then he heard the door into the dining room come down. He quickly grabbed two long kitchen knives and slipped into the shadows of the doorway.

' Lot of good these things can do, small things, but they will get the job done.'

He smiled a cold smile and waited for the assassians to come thorough the door. He didnt have to wait long. Within minutes the door knob to the kitchen slightly turned and the door came open slowly. From his 'hideout' he could see everything, though they could not see him.

Four hooded figures stepped into the room.

' Looks like they found some friends, let them come...'

They quickly walked through the room, quietly laughing at his dead wife, and growling when they found one of their own.

As one came near him, Logiain reached out and quickly slit his throat, making no sound. He caught the body and quietly laid it on the floor.

None of the others seemed to have noticed their missing friend. He killed two more in the same manner, until the fourth one saw him.

He pointed at him and started walking forward. The other slowly approaching.

Logiain was a victim of many emotions at this point, none of them pleasant. Fury, rage, hate, malice, sadness; and the one thing he wanted most.. REVENGE.

He lunged at the creature and began a vicious swordfight. Within a few moments he finally killed the creature. The other took one look at him, and whipped out a stick of wood.

' I guess this is the end. Goodbye Marianne, Rose, wherever you are. Goodbye James, hopefully you are safe. I love you all.'

Logiain took one look at the thing and started walking forward, intent on harming it at least a little before it killed him.

When he was only a few feet away, he threw his knives, the exact same time the figure whispered,

" Avada Kedavra."

At that same moment Rose Potter lay unconscious on the back of a horse, heading towards the Skull Kingdom and Voldemort.

A/N: Sorry if this took so long. Too much stuff happening. But I should be able to write a lot in August. Im gone end of JUne through the end of July. And exams are in the middle of June, its really pathetic, my last day of school is June 20th. Doesnt that suck??
