"Damn straight" Lily agreed immediately as she cut her palm with her hand nails, it was painful but it had to be done. She rubbed a drop of her blood over the heart of each child "I...I'm going to have to sacrifice myself" Thinking of the ritual she had come across to save her sons, she would sacrifice her life willingly for her sons, that was the most important part of the ritual.
"No Lily, let me do it" Dorea said "I'm the one who helped you find the ritual, I am older and the children need me less than they need you." Dorea said as she did the same as Lily
"I can't..." Lily was cut off by the door blasting off of it's hinges, the creepy hooded figure of Voldemort walked in. His robes were a little ripped, leading the women to believe that James put up a good fight.
"Good evening ladies" He said in a slow and creepy voice "step aside"
"No!" Lily said with hesitation as she stood in front of Dorea Potter and the children "Take me instead!"
"Move you silly mudblood!"
"No! Take me, spare the children!"
"I warned you" Voldemort said before striking Lily with a coma curse, causing the woman to drop
"Stop!" Dorea Potter ordered as she now stood in front of Voldemort "You...will not harm my grandchildren!"
"Will I not?" An amused Voldemort asked
"I do not know you're real name, but I curse it and you to the depths of hell. I hope magic hears my call and I hope that you are punished for all you've done."
"How adorable" Voldemort said in a bored tone "now move"
"No, kill me if you must but you are not touching these children" Dorea replied with no hint of regret or uncertainty "I will gladly die to save my grandchildren"
"So be it, Avada Kedavra!" A sickly green light shot from Voldemort's wand and struck Dorea Potter, causing the woman to drop to the floor.
Voldemort stepped over both bodies, he looked down at the children. One was a crying redhead, rather annoying. The other, a green eyes warrior if he had ever seen one. It was looking at him with an expression as close to rage as a child its age could produce. This one was certainly more powerful than the other.
"A pity" He said as he aimed the wand at baby Harry "you could have been a great follower, but I cannot have anyone oppose me. Goodbye child" The killing curse shot from his wand but Voldemort's eyes widened as he saw it hit the child before returning to him in the space of two seconds.
Voldemort's body vanished, leaving his robes and wand on the floor along with one crying baby in the crib who sat next to an exhausted baby. Both were bleeding on their foreheads, one from the spell and the other from the backlash.
Minutes passed before the first person entered the bedroom, it was none other than Severus Snape. He immediately ran to the body of Lily, he held her close to himself as tears poured down his eyes. The man did nothing but cry for a few minutes, when the sound of more people startled him. He placed a kiss on Lily's forehead and gently lowered her before running away.
The next person to arrive was Sirius Black, he burst into the room, red eyes from crying. He looked at Lily, he repeated the process that Snape had done except he only lasted for a minute before he recognised the other body.
"No!" Sirius blurted out, putting Lily down before he rushed over to Dorea Potter "Wake up! Wake up!" He screamed to the woman who had been the closest to a mother he had ever had "WAKE UP! NO! NO! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! PLEASE! PLEASE WAKE UP! I'M BEGGING YOU! WAKE UP!" He checked her pulse "NO! NO! WAKE UP! PLEASE! YOU CAN'T DIE! NO! NOT YOU! PLEASE MUM! PLEASE! I NEED YOU! JAMES NEEDS YOU! HARRY AND ADRIAN NEED YOU! PLEASE!" A mountain of tears erupted from his eyes as he held the body against himself tightly.
Minutes later after being all cried out, Sirius finally noticed the two children in the room and he immediately ran to the both of them. He leaned against the railing and looked at them both.
"Harry, Adrian" He spoke softly "are you both alright? You're not hurt?" He said as he used his wand to get rid of the blood that poured from their foreheads "It's alright, I'm here. It's me, Padfoot. Paddy. I'll get you both away from here, okay?"
"Sirius!" A surprised voice blurted out, Sirius turned in an instant and had his wand pointed at the intruder but relaxed and dropped it when he saw it was Dumbledore " are you alright?"
"No!" Sirius shook his head "I've called the aurors and the medics, I don't know if Lily or James are going to survive and poor Harry and Adrian. I need to get them out of here"
"I'm sorry Sirius. but I cannot allow that" Dumbledore said, flicking his wand and hitting Sirius with a body bind spell
"What are you doing?!" Sirius shouted, despite his sore throat. Dumbledore ignored him and made his way over to the babies and performed a few scans
