*Third Person POV*

Sally was looking after her son and nephew, Percy and Harry. Lilly and James went to one of the Order's meetings. They were going to fill her in later. The reason that she didn't go was that it wasn't safe enough for Percy and Harry to leave the safe house.
Harry and Percy could of passed off as twins. The only difference between the two were that Percy was naturally tanned and the age difference. Harry is one and Percy is two. Even their eyes were almost the same. Almost. Harry has emerald green eyes, while Percy has sea green. Both of them have black messy hair that looks untameable.
A surge of bright light shined in the nursery. Sally covered her and the children's eyes from the light. In the lights place stood a man. He had black wind swept hair and a well toned tanned body. He also had dazzling sea green eyes. Just like Percy's.
"Poseidon" Sally breath was hitched.
"Hello Sally"
The man in front of her was Percy's father. She ran up to him and hugged him, inhaling his sent. The ocean. He still smells the same as last time. Sally let him go and he walked over to Percy. Poseidon picked him up and started to cradle him. Percy squealed in delight and started giggling.
"Dada!" He said waving his arms around.
Poseidon smiled, but then his face but serious when he remembered why he was here.
"Sally you need to get out of here," he demanded. Colour drained from Sally's face.
"It happing isn't it?" He nodded gravely.
"You and Percy need to go there's nothing we can do for Harry."
A single tear slid down her face.
"The Fates came and visited me a week ago," she whispered. Poseidon's face showed fear.
"They told me a way where I could save both Percy and Harry, but it comes with a catch. I need you to take Percy away from here leave no trace, take him to my husband in America."
Poseidon nodded. Silent tears fell down his face as he gave Sally one last kiss. Sally kissed Percy on the forehead and said goodbye. She watched the father and son leave with a flash.
Sally fell to the floor and sobbed. Harry started to cry. He knew something was wrong. Still crying, Sally went over to Harry and hushed the child.
Someone knock on the door. Sally put Harry back into his crib and went down stairs.
She looked through the window. All she saw was skull masks. She bolted back up stairs. She started to weave the spell that Fates told her to do. Just in time too because they smashed through the door and the windows. Sally sat there waiting for her fate to come. The nursery door flew opened and in the door way stood Voldemort.
"Ah my fellow witch would you please step aside so I can kill this boy, you precious blood doesn't need to be spilled." He calmly told her.
"Please don't kill him kill me instead!" She pleaded.
"Step aside," he demand.
"NO!"
"Very well if you don't step aside, then I'll have to make you. Avada Kedavra!"
Sally let out a scream before falling down.
"Now onto the boy."
Voldemort lifted his wand and sent the fatal curse at Harry. Instead of hearings Harry's scream, Voldemort heard his own. His whole body disappeared, leaving only his cloak. The Death Eaters that where near by saw what happened to their master. They yelped in fright. Their all powerful master was killed by a mere baby. All of them fled the area, leaving the crying baby by himself.

*Later on in the night*

Lilly and James where coming back from their meeting form the Order. All they had talked about how there wasn't as many Death Eaters attacks. Usually that's a good thing, but this time it meant that they were planning something. They were about it find out. The first thing they saw was the broken door and windows. The couple bolted inside. Everything was smashed and destroyed. They continued running until they reached the nursery. Nothing in there had been touched.
Lilly saw Harry an ran straight for him. She hugged him like there was no tomorrow. Harry's eyes were red and buffy from crying, his throat was sore from him screaming. Harry also had a lighting shaped scar on his forehead. She calmed the child down and skins he felled asleep. She wondered why He husband wasn't with her, checking on his son. But then she saw why. James was on his knees and holding a body. The body was Sally's.
She put Harry in his crib and went over to her husband. His tears were freely flowing. Sally's eyes where opened. They once where full of laughter and happiness, now they had nothing. The bright blue eyes where now a milky blue. As Lilly sobbed, she leaned over and closed Sally's eyes. James ran out the door.
When he was out side the house, he screamed into the night sky. He fell onto the ground and curled into a ball, trying to make the pain ago away. Wretched sobs escaped him. Sally was his only sibling. Both of them where very close and they had a strong bond. Now she's gone. Taken from him by the vicious war. Also now Percy was going to be motherless. Wait where was Percy? He pulled himself together and got up to find Percy.
James and Lilly spent hours looking all over the house, trying to find Percy. They both met back in the nursery.
"D-do you th-think they t-took him?" Lilly stuttered out.
"I don't know Lily" James replied with his head down low.
"I think I know how Harry survived the attack." Lily said quietly. James looked up at her.
"Sally was talking about a spell someone told her and when woven right it can make someone survive the killing curse." She took a deep breath.
"But it comes with a cost for the spell to be completed someone must sacrifice themselves so the other one can live. Then it acts like shield, it bounces off the victim and goes to the person who cast the spell. I think that's how Voldemort died."
"So basically both Sally and Harry killed Voldemort." She nodded.
"We will tell the Order about it later, for now let's gets some rest." James told his Wife.
"What about Percy?" Guilt hit him in the stomach, hard.
"There's nothing we can do for him if the Death Eaters have him he would of been dead by now" Lilly nodded and silently cried. They both went to bed, crying themselves to sleep.

*After the war has been declared over*

The war was over. The hate had stopped but the pain was still with them. Many had died of the course but they didn't died in vain.
There was a funeral for Sally. It was small and beautiful, just the way Sally would of wanted it. But they still couldn't find Percy. Their was wanted signs every where for him but know one had seen him. He wasn't in any Death Eaters hide outs, even the captured Death Eaters said that they have never seen the two year old boy.
Lupin, Sirius, James and Lilly were all sitting in the dinning room, deep in thought. All of them were thinking...
'Where is Percy?'
