Willow Potter

Chapter 1

It was October evening, the Dark Lord was at large and was murdering witches, wizards, and muggles along with his followers called death eaters. Lily and James Potter were at the their large home in Godric's Hollow. This couple happened to be a witch and wizard, with two young children, Harry James and Willow Casey, they were twins who immediately showed magical powers. Harry was able to keep his hair style intact no matter what happened, even if Lily attempted to shave all of his hair off. Willow on the other hand was very mischievous and could somehow always find things hidden and was able to prank her parents. James and Lily was extremely relieved that both could perform this magic. That halloween night, they preferably dressed as qudditch players. They showed the interest at a really young age. After coming home from a neighborhood party, each family member had been very tired. While making her way up to the front door Lily saw a glimpse of a bright green light. "James, we need to get inside, I can feel something horrible is going to happen." James cautiously nodded looking off into the distance with Willow in arm. The door unlocked with a click, and they made their way into the dark hallway. James heard a bang and he jumped. "What?" he heard Lily say. He hesitated "I-erm-well I just heard a bang thats all". She nodded. Harry was slowly drifting asleep on Lily's shoulder. She was on her way up with her two tired children in arm and saw a dark figure, she immediately screamed in horror and yelled "James!" in mid scream. The dark figure happened to have a wand, raises it and yelled "Avad-" before he could finish the incantation James had disarmed him. This turned the dark figure into facing James who had a wand in hand, but the figure somehow also had his wand in hand even after being disarmed. This time he could finish the killing curse "Avada Kedavra!" And with that a combination of a green powerful light and Lily's screams in horror came and James Potter was dead. Lily was sobbing uncontrollably but she had only one thing in mind. The children. She placed them calmly into their cribs and whispered "Be brave. Mommy loves you. Daddy loves you. Be brave."The steps of the figure made it into the twins nursery, he yelled "Avada Kedavra" once more, and the young mother was dead. Only Harry and Willow remained, not aware that their lives would be changed forever, and the scars that showed. A lightning bolt and a star, one for each child.
