3rd pov:

The first year of the twins lives were amazing. Ethan was always playing with james and he was showing him al the different aspects of magic there was, he was always tried to take his fathers wand but couldn't do anthing with it. He was a very chubby baby but was always eating something. He was vey loud and outspoken always being held or fussed over and consantly throwing tantrums when the tantrum wasn't on him even though he was only one. Hadrian was different he was still shown the same amount of love from is parents however he seemed to light up when someone was reading to him but other than that he was quiet never cried or asked for anything was losing what baby fat he did have.

On their birthday Hadrian got lots of different thigs mainly books but other things such as prank items and a mini broom. James justified that he could use them in a few years. What they didn't know was even at the age of one Hadrian didn't like all the things his father did, he was more like remus and enjoyed being read a good book.

Ethan on the other hand also got some prank items and a broom aswell as lots of sweets and candy. "Your not to eat that all in one day mister." said lily as she took away all of the candy apart from the one chocolate frog in his hand. He got a mischievious look in his eyes as he started a very large tantrum. Lily and James quickly dropped everything thinking he was hurt but he didn't stop till lily let him go and he crawled towads the large pile of candy on the floor where his cries turned into sniffles. All while hadrian watched from the comfort of sirius and remus' lap.

Apart from Ethan and Hadrian's Birthday nothing exiciting happened because they couldn't leave their home in godrics hollow. When they decided on who the secret keeper was they decided it should be peter because they thought sirius was to obvious and dumbledore cast the spell. They thought this was the safest for them and there family, little did they know...

On The night of the 31st everything was great, the house elves were cleaning up from dinner while in the living room james and lily were entertaining Ethan and Hadrian with colourful and using there magic that they stopped when they heard the creak of the old gate that led onto the property. James looked out the widow brushing aside the curtains to see a black figure come slowly dwn the path and gasped. "Lily he's here!! Take the kids and go!"

James' pov:

As he watched lily take the kids upstairs he grabbed his wand and prepared for a duel. As the door blast open he was met face to face with who he thought was voldemort. As they dueled he remebered the promise he made to his husband severus to ot kill the mudblood. But that also ment he couldnt kill james potter because he is a pureblood and people will e asking questions. So he send a wordless "stupefy" at him and he was blown into the wall and knocked unconscious not dead like lily thought.

3rd pov:

Lily quickly gathered the children an ran upstairs into their nursery. As she layed them in Hadrians crib and pushed  heavy dresser against the door she heard the crash as the front door blew open and wished for her husband to be safe. She could hear the thump of her husband downstairs, after the duel, thinking the worst she steps in front of their crib and starts whispering how much she and james loves them. "Mummy loves you. Daddy loves you." All while tears where streaming down her face. They all jumped as the door flew to bits with a "BOMBARDO MAXIMA!"

Lily jumps in front of her childrenand starts pleading like her life depended on it because it did. "please not my babies. Take me! Not my babies!" Voldemort sneered at her. "stand aside stupid girl."said voldemort but lily didnt move an kept on with her pleas because its all she could do. Voldemort seeing she wasn't moving out the way sent a "Stupefy" towards her where she was knocked unconscious.

As voldemort looked towards the children in his crib his face softened because he didnt want to kill the children let alone any magical person becuase the magical community didnt have a very large population compared to muggles and magic is a special gift to have.

Voldemort stopped in front of the children and looked to see which one would be his downfall. Ethan had started crying when lily fell unconscious because his mother wasn't getting up or paying attention to him. But also because when the door was blasted open a shard of wood scratch his cheek and left a scar ,in the shape of voldemorts initials, of LV. Voldemort looked at Ethan and sneered again because his was screaming and crying but because he coud tell he was a plain ordinary wizard and wouldn't defeat him.

However when he turned towards The dark haired child, Hadrian, he was awed because this child wasnt crying or scared of him but looking at him with understanding as if he knew what was about to happen and is telling him he was ok with it. Voldemort knew this child is the child of the prophecy so quietly apologised to the child. " Im sorry little one but this has to be done. I will never forget you and mourn for you till my dying breath but i will make it quick and painless. Im sorry child." and with those last words he uttered the dreaded words.

"Avada Kedavra."
