Chapter 2: Realization

It took Neville a little bit longer than it took Harry to figure out what had happened, but once he did, he immediately revived Harry and said:

"Harry, is that your dad?" sounding very shaken. Looking quite pale, Harry replied

"I think so."

His voice was punctuated with another scream:

"Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!"

"Dammit! We have to go save my mum," he yelled before sprinting up the stairs with Neville right on his heels.

They heard a cold, high-pitched laugh, and a voice just like it:

"Stand aside you silly girl, stand aside now!"

Harry reached the top of the stairs, and ran down to the end of the hallway, where there was a door slightly ajar. The door to the room ripped open without him touching it. He could see his mother lying on the floor with a baby version of himself behind her and Voldemort standing over her.

"NOT MY MOTHER, YOU BASTARD!" Harry screamed and he and Neville started shooting off every spell they could think of, all easily blocked by Voldemort. Thinking back on it, he realized he probably should have sneaked up on him instead of just charging in.

"What do we have here, has someone come to play?" Voldemort mocked. "I thought I already killed you. Maybe you're someone else, not that it matters—you'll die anyway," he said.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Harry was just able to dodge the curse, and he could see out of the corner of his eye that his mother had gotten up and picked up her wand; she was now creeping up behind Voldemort.

"Expelliarmus!" She yelled, but he had already brought up a shield and the spell deflected and hit her, knocking her back into the wall, and throwing her wand twenty feet or so.

Voldemort turned to see what had happened, giving Neville just enough time to make the same mistake Harry's mother made, shouting

"Stupefy!" and also having the spell rebounded on himself.

Looking back to Harry and laughing maniacally, Voldemort said "So, your little friends are both done, and soon you will join them, but lets have some fun first!"

"Imperio!"

The curse hit harry, and he suddenly felt quite happy, and he heard a voice in the distance:

"Kill those worthless animals!"

'Hmm, why should I, there isn't really any reason,'said a little voice in the back of Harry's head.

The feeling of bliss went away, and his mind cleared. So as not to cause any suspicion, he still went over to his mum. He pointed his wand at her and then quickly spun around towards Voldemort and reaching deep into his magical core, he channeled all of his hate, magic, and anger to his wand, and shouted

"Avada Kedavra!" A bright green light exploded out of the tip of his wand, and the air around the curse rippled and distorted.

Harry watched in satisfaction as the green light sped towards Voldemort, only to be shocked when Voldemort was gone with a loud crack by the time the curse reached him. The spell instead hit the wall and it burst into flames.

Harry dropped to his knees in magical exhaustion, only just able to hold onto consciousness.

There was another crack as Voldemort reappeared and yelled

"Avada Kedavra!", pointing his wand at baby Harry.

For Harry, time seemed to slow down and he shouted

"NOOOOOO!" as he watched his mum throw herself in front of the spell.

The moment seemed to last forever as she started to emit a blue glow that transferred itself to baby Harry.

Her lifeless body lay on the wooden floor, her eyes still staring in defiance at Voldemort, who laughed again, and said

"Lot of good it did you, standing up to me, your son will die anyway. Avada Kedavra." He turned and started to walk away, but the blue glow in baby Harry brightened and brightened until the light was so strong it looked white.

This light gathered into a sphere the size of a softball, and then started to spin, slowly at first, but faster and faster until there were spirals burnt into Harry's retinas. The light then sped back at Voldemort, and blew him back through the wall.

Harry saw spots in his eyes, and wondered vaguely why Voldemort had no nose, then his vision went dark again.
