THE BOY WHO LIVED

31st JULY 1980

ST MUNGO's HOSPITAL

Lily Potter's water had broken and she was admitted to the hospital for the birth of her children. A whirlwind of emotions was going through the mind of James Potter. He was going to be father. Merlin, he was one of the most irresponsible people in the planet.

Lily Potter was in a lot of pain. But she had to do it, for her children. She pushed harder. James was by her side. He held her hand giving her support. She had been fed with a pain relieving potion. Then with one final hard push she passed out.

Sirius Orion Potter and Remus Lupin were waiting outside for the birth of their best friend's son. Then they were called inside and the two Marauders dashed in as fast as they could manage.

Lily was crying openly and James' face bore an expression which elucidated confusion as he was confused between being happy and thinking if he would be a good father.

Finally he composed himself and said to Sirius Potter and Remus Lupin, "Gentlemen meet Harry James Potter and Daniel Fleamont Potter, the Potter twins born to Lily Marie' Evans nee Potter and James Fleamont Potter and the next generation of Marauders" in a dramatic tone. He looked at Lily who just smiled.

PAST

27th July 1979

It was raining heavily and there were two people walking towards a pub. One of them was a woman in mid-thirties and another was a man who seemed to be over hundred years of age. They entered inside and went to a room.

One of them had frizzy hair. She was dressed in a shabby outfit and was holding a wet umbrella. Her face wore an expression which was almost impossible to comprehend and was something between dreamy and amazed. She had black eyes and her hair was brown-colored.

The older man was dressed in purple dress robes and had blue eyes which were twinkling madly and they reflected not only mirth and mischief but also his wisdom and years of experience though it did not stop him from having a horrible dress sense. He had white hair and a long beard of the same color.

"Hello ma'am" the older man greeted "I am Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft" the man named Dumbledore greeted.

"Now that the introductions are over, am I to assume that you are the new applicant for the post of Divination professor at Hogwarts." Said Dumbledore.

"Yes" she replied in a too-sweet-for-her-own-good tone.

"You are Sybil Trelawney a relative of the great seer Cassandra Trelawney correct?" he asked

"Yes"

"What are your qualifications?"

"I am a true seer and possess the inner eye"

"Pardon" interrupted Dumbledore

"The inner eye is the most important possession of a seer. It has the ability to look into the future as well as provide knowledge beyond our capability. The inner eye is a boon as well as a bane it is a huge burden for us seers. But the inner eye alone is not enough. One has to learn and be qualified to open it." Explained Trelawney in a not–so-convincing tone.

"Well I am sorry ma-am but" started Dumbledore. Suddenly her eyes went wide and she started in an entirely different tone

"THE ONE WITH THE POWER TO VANQUISH THE DARK LORD APPROACHES ..................... BORN TO THOSE WHO HAVE THRICE DEFIED HIM......... BORN AS THE SEVENTH MONTH DIES............"
