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... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives

August 9th, 1980:

"She's gorgeous." Kara said, holding her newborn daughter. The newborn had pale skin, grey eyes, blonde hair, natural rosy cheeks, and baby pink lips. She looked almost identical to her mother except for her eyes which were the same as her father's.

"She is certainly a beauty." Victoria White said, looking at her newborn niece. She looked between her niece and her sister. "You two are almost identical."

"Except she has her father's eyes." Lily Potter said, standing next to her best friend.

"What will you name her?" Victoria asked.

"I think I shall call her Emily Rose." Kara said. "Victoria, would you be her godmother?" Kara asked.

"It would be my honor." Victoria told her. "What a blessing she is."

"What a blessing indeed." Kara said, smiling at her beautiful newborn. "My little, baby girl." Emily let out a cute little laugh. Her laugh made the three women smile. A smile that everyone desperately needed.

Godric's Hollow; October 31st, 1981:

Kara, Lily, and James sat watching Harry and Emily play together, both laughing and smiling. Harry was the son of Lily and James Potter. He was only a few weeks older than Emily. They had been best friends since meeting each other over a year ago.
Then, two cloaked figures appeared outside of the Potters. They had been betrayed. "Lily, Kara, take Emily and Harry. He's here. Get the kids out and keep them safe!" James told the two mothers. Kara picked up Emily as Lily picked up Harry. While they were both worried about James, they knew they had to keep the kids safe. Lily and Kara ran upstairs. They had made it to the top step when they heard the door burst open. The cloaked figures walked in. "You stay away from those kids you hear me? Stay away from the kids!" James yelled. One of the cloaked figures only laughed before pointing their wand at James.

"AVADA KEDAVRA!" The figure yelled. A green light came out of their wand and hit James, killing him instantly. Both figures then walked inside, stepping over James. Kara and Lily knew that the figures were coming for them.

"Lily, take Emily," Kara told her, handing Emily over to Lily, "and go." Kara then pushed Lily into Harry's room and shut the door, locking it with her wand. Lily set the kids in Harry's cradle. Seconds later, the cloaked figures appeared in front of Kara.

"Move aside scum." One cloaked figure told her.

"No! I won't let you hurt my loved ones, not while I'm alive." Kara told them.

"Well, that can be arranged." The other cloaked figure told her.

"STUPEFY!" Kara yelled. The first cloaked figure blocked the spell easily. "REDUCTO!" Kara yelled. But once again, the cloaked figure blocked the spell.

"EXPELLIARMUS!" The cloaked figure yelled, throwing Kara against the wall and leaving her wand-less. "This is where you meet your sticky end." The figure told her.

"Kill me, but know that if you touch my godson or daughter, you will not live another day of your miserable life in peace Voldemort." Kara told him. This angered Voldemort.

"You shall suffer, and beg for death and I, Lord Voldemort, will then kill you as I am a merciful Lord." He told her.

"You are not merciful, you are a monster." Kara told him.
