Saying Goodbye

Things had begun to get worse. Dumbledore set up teams to investigate the mysterious wizard but nothing was ever found. The Order soon started to call him the "Resurrecter". Hermoine found a little information on how to resurrect the dead but it was very complex and very dangerous. There was a potion that went over the grave of the dead and many ingredients to that potion were believed to be extinct. Not to mention the incantation alone was in three different languages. With one mispronunciation, who knows what could happen. The Order did not know how to go about from stopping the Resurrecter. Some members believed it to be a joke, yet all still tried to stop him. Some teams went out in search of the potion ingredients to see if they could catch him, but with some ingredients believed to be extinct, they didn't even know where to start looking.

"This is crazy. Weeds cannot grow in the snow." Cried Ron

"Ron, it said in the book that this is the last place it was found. See right here…

Alligator Weed

Stands about 30cm tall, and has a dark green and brown tint. Now extinct but used to grow in cold and snowy party of Antarctica.

"Well when you said we would be in search of Alligator Weed, I didn't think you would drag me to Antarctica!" Replied Ron.

"Ok you two. Lets just complete our search and get back home. I hate this cold just as much as you do." Said Harry.

The Trio completed their search in about 2 hours. Of course they didn't search the whole continent, but they covered the most popular parts were Alligator Weed is found with no luck.

"I am happy to be home. Out of the snow." Came Ron when they got back to Harry and Hermoine's home."

"Ron, you should be used to the snow. You live in England." Came Harry.

"Yeah but not that much snow."

"I am going to go check on Jessica at Mom and Dad's place. Is that ok Harry?"

"Sure, give her a kiss for me and say hi to you parents for me."

"Will do." Hermoine kissed Harry goodbye and gave Ron a hug.

"Hey Harry, how come you haven't made Hermoine go into hiding?"

"I have tried. Ever since we first learned about all this but she won't do it. Dumbledore has tried, her parents have tried, but she won't do it. She insists on not letting me fight this alone."

"Yeah that sounds like Hermoine. But it is getting more dangerous. The letters he leaves telling us how we are going to fail and Voldemort will come back and kill us all. How close he is to resurrecting Voldemort. Harry he only needs one more ingredient and then he can complete his task!"

"I know Ron, but Hermoine says, "No one has died yet, it is still safe". I cannot make her think any other way. I will just have to protect her."

At the Dinner Table

"What would you like for dinner tonight mademoiselle? Roast beef and smashed carrots or roasted chicken and cooked peas?

"Abababababa"

"I thought you looked like a roast beef type to me to mademoiselle." Harry loved playing with his daughter. He sat down and proceeded to feed Jessica her baby food.

"And for you Mr. Potter, I will fix you a delicious steak with mashed potatoes, corn and a side salad." Came Hermoine.

"Aababababababababa"

"No young lady, none for you, you need to have more teeth than that to eat a steak."

After a quite dinner and sitting down and reading and watching TV, the Potters put their baby girl down to bed and decided to go to bed themselves. After changing into their pajamas, they lay in bed reading. Harry thought this was a perfect time to try again to convince Hermoine to go in to hiding.

"Hermoine dear."

"Yes Harry", Hermoine putting down her book so she could listen to her husband.

"I feel you need to take extra protection with your life."

"Oh Harry not this again please. We have talked about this before and I am not doing it. There is no reason too."

"Hermoine the Order is receiving threats from this guy. He only needs one more ingredient before the potion is complete. What if…" But Harry was interrupted by Hermoine.

"Honey, almost half of those ingredients are extinct. Do you really think he has all the ingredients? He is most likely just trying to worry us that's all. Just calm down, everything will be fine, you'll see. Now turn off your light and let's go to bed. I am tired."

"You are probably right. I am getting worried over nothing. I should just calm down and go to bed. Goodnight Hermoine."

"Goodnight Harry."

Right as Harry had snuggled next to Hermoine and was comfortable, there was a tap on the window. Harry looked up to see an owl holding a letter.

"Now who would be sending an owl this late at night?"

Harry got up and took the letter from the owl. But when he seen who it was from, he wish he hadn't.

"Harry, who is it from?" Came Hermoine.

"The Resurrecter." Replied Harry.

"What? It can't be."

Hermoine had gotten out of bed to read the letter they had been sent.

Potter

You have FAILED! Lord Voldemort will be alive again very shortly. He will come back and he will kill you! I am about to pour my potion over my lord's body right now and there is NOTHING you can do to stop me! Finally Lord Voldemort can KILL you and put you were you belong. LONG LIVE LORD VOLDEMORT!

"Harry, what are going to do?"

"I must go stop him Hermoine, it is the only way."

"I will go.."

"NO! You must take Jessica somewhere safe. She will not have the same fate as me."

"Alright, I shall take her to my parents house. But, please, send Dumbledore the letter; tell him what you are going to do. I do not want you to be alone."

"Alright, I will do that."

Harry quickly wrote a letter to Dumbledore telling him what he is going to do and sends both letters to him.

"I must go now Hermoine."

"Yes Harry I know. Please be careful. I do not want to lose you.

"You will never lose me. I love you Hermoine."

"And I love you Harry."

And with that Harry kissed his wife goodbye and left.

Why?

Harry never wanted to come back to this place, the place were he killed Voldemort. The place gave him chills just thinking about it let alone coming back to walk on it. Harry walked over to where the final battle took place. You never forget something that big in your life.

As Harry approached the grave he saw a man already there. He had a cauldron next to him and it was bubbling. Harry wasn't to late. He could still stop this madman.

"STOP THIS RIGHT NOW!" Yelled Harry.

"Harry Potter. So you did come to see the rebirth of Lord Voldemort."

"Stop this right now or I will have to kill you."

"HA, you can not stop me. My master will be here soon and he will KILL you!

Harry stepped closer toward the grave.

"Just a few more minutes and my master will live again!"

Harry then saw Dumbledore appear.

"Did Potter send you my letter? Perfect then you BOTH shall see the rebirth of a true wizard!"

Harry looked over at Dumbledore and could tell his old school master had plan.

"Why are you doing this Joseph?"

"How do you know my name?"

"I never forget a face or a student Joseph. Why are you doing this?"

"Why, WHY am I doing this? I want the greatest wizard there ever was to rule the world. I want to see my master again."

Harry couldn't see what Dumbledore was asking all these questions. Who cares about his name? They should be trying to stop him! It was then Harry realized what Dumbledore was doing. He was distraction Joseph enough so that Harry could tip the caldron and destroy the potion. Well Harry didn't waste anytime. Harry wanted to get a little closer to the caldron so he snuck around. But while Harry had snuck around to the other side of the caldron, he did not see a certain bookworm appear.

"I cannot wait until I get to see Lord Voldemort destroy you and Potter. It will be the greatest moment in time!"

"Think again"

Harry, now behind the caldron at only at foot or two, sent a spell that had the caldron flying off and spilling the contents everywhere.

"NNNOOOOOOO! How could you! You took away the most precious thing away from me! I will do the same to you."

Joseph then sent a curse at Hermoine. Harry didn't have enough time to react. Dumbledore sent a curse to Joseph but he was to late. Hermoine was struck down. Harry got to Hermoine's side when she only had minutes to live.

"Hermoine, how did you get here? I thought you were with Jessica at your parent's house."

"I came to be with you. I didn't know if Dumbledore would get here in time. I couldn't let you do this alone. I love you Harry."

"I love you too Hermoine."

"Tell Jessica I love her too. And that I will always be with you the both of you."

"No Hermoine, you will live. I will not let you die!"

Harry could hardly keep back the tears. His Hermoine that he was supposed to protect now lay dying in his arms. There was nothing he could do.

"Harry I must go now. I will love you and Jessica forever. I will never leave you. Goodbye Harry"

"Hermoine, wait, don't go. I need you. How will I live without you?"

But it was to late. Hermoine lay dead in his arms.

"HEEERRMOOINNNEEE!"

We Will Meet Again Some Day

"Harry are you sure you want to do this?"

It had been a week since Hermoine's funeral. Harry had just drifted through the week like a ghost. He could not seem to care.

"It is the only way I am sure she will be safe. Other Voldemort followers will rise and they may try to harm her. I am not sure I will be able to protect her. She needs to be taken away. Away from the wizarding world, where no one will know her. She can be adopted into a loving family that will care for her and protect her."

"But Harry, eventually she will get her letter to Hogwarts. She will know the truth when she comes to school, all this kids will know her." Replied Ron

"Dumbledore and I have decided she is not to attend Hogwarts until she knows the truth, when she is ready."

"What? You have to be kidding me."

"I kid you not Ron. She will know nothing of me or her heritage."

"Harry this is crazy. There has to be some other way?"

"There is no other way Ron except for this one."

"Harry, you could raise her. Let her be here where she belongs."

"No Ron I can not."

"And why is that?"

"I cannot protect her. I could not protect Hermoine, I cannot protect Jessica."

"Bull crap Harry. No one could protect her better than you."

"I am afraid not Ron. Besides, Hermoine was my life. She is what I lived for everyday. Without her I am dead. Just a walking corpse."

"Then if you think this is the only way Harry. So be it."

It was then Ron took Jessica from Harry.

"Goodbye Jessica. Maybe someday we shall meet again."

Ron then took Jessica to Dumbledore. Dumbledore then took Jessica to a house where he knew she would be loved. There were muggles of course. But they knew about the wizarding world and its ways. They knew about Jessica's past and what they must do.

"Here you go. Your very own daughter."

"Oh Albus thank you so much. How can we ever repay you?"

"You can repay me by treating this child like she was our own. Teach her kindness, respect and loyalty. Trust and honor. And lastly, show her love and what it is to be loved.

"Of course Albus."

"Oh one last thing, what is the child's new name?"

"Actually we were thinking of keeping it the same. Just changing the last name.

"So it is Jessica Lily Goldsmith?

"Yes it is."

"Well congratulations on the new baby Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith. Take care of yourself and your child. Good Bye"

"Good Bye Albus."

Marie Goldsmith looked down at her child and with her husband, John Goldsmith, welcomed their daughter home.

Author's Note

Well that is the prequel. Now I can get started on the actual story. Hope you all like. Though if I don't get some more reviews I will just quit. Oh yeah I do not own any of the Harry Potter stuff. I forgot to add that in the other three chapters. Um I think that is it.
