How It All Began:

A man with black hair and green eyes walked up to the front door of a house in England and knocked on the door several times before putting a basket on the puch. He took one more sad glance at the bundle in the basket and whispered in fluent Japanese (I don't know Japanese so I'm going to type it in English), 'goodnight. I'm really sorry about this."

He turned around and disappeared into the night just as the door opened to reveal a woman with red hair and green eyes with her wand out. She looked around and saw noone. She sighed.

'Pranks', she thought, shaking her head.

As she prepared to close the door, the basket caught her eye. She eyed it and hesitantly bent down slowly and took off the cloth. What she saw shocked her. Inside was a baby boy who looked barely 8 months old.

Her eyes softened. She gently carried the baby inside. Her heart softens everytime she sees a baby, especially since the medi-witch said the she can't have a baby.

She smoothed his hair and found a rather curious looking scar on the forehead. She traced it and started rocking him.

Later that night

A man with black hair and blue eyes apparated to his house. He gave a yawn and got ready to sleep when he heard humming. Walking into the living room, he found his wife rocking and humming to a baby.

'Where - ?', to say that he was shocked was an understatement.

His wife looked up and 'shush'ed him and motioned him to her side.

'I found him outside', she whispered.

'Outside? What's a baby doing outside?', he asked.

'He think that he was abandoned', her voice held a sad note and it also held a hidden question, 'can we keep him?', which her husband caught.

'Oh all right', he could never refuse her and besides, he had always wanted a child, blood related or not.

'What should we name him?', he asked thoughtfully.

She grinned.

'How about Harry? Harry Potter?'
