Emma Watson gets emotional at the ‘Deathly Hallows Part II’ world premiere (2011)

You have fought valiantly, but in vain. I do not wish this. Every drop of magical blood spilled is a terrible waste. I therefore command my forces to retreat. In their absence, dispose of your dead with dignity. Harry Potter, I now speak directly to you. On this night, you have allowed your friends to die for you, rather than face me yourself. There is no greater dishonor. Join me in the Forbidden Forest, and confront your fate. If you do not do this, I shall kill every last man, woman and child who tries to conceal you from me.

Pairing: James x Lily, Harry x Hermione

A/N: I already know I have sooooo many works I'm suppose to get out, but this is just stuck in my head and I can't get it out. So enjoy my first contribution to HP fandom

• Voldemort was dead
• He was finally gone
• James sat heavily on his chair in Pottor Manor cradling his wife and son in his arms thinking of what happened earlier that night
• The attack on his family
• The obvious betrayal by his friend Peter who now was on his way to Azkaban
• James didn't know what saved them from Vodemort or what killed him, but he was grateful
• All he remembered was facing off against that evil man in his son's nursery. Begging him to spare Lily and Harry's lives
• He saw the spell being cast he heard the words cross Voldemort's lips, but they didn't die
• Everything was a blur after that
• Them leaving the destroyed house
• Seeing Hagrid arrive, telling him to send word to Dumbledore about what happen
• Sirius and him capturing Peter and Sirius taking him in
• Apporating away from the scene as reporters began spilling in promising answers in the morning
• Lily shifted in his arms breaking him from his thoughts
• Lily: What do we do now?
• James: We treasure the gift we've been given
• And that's what they did
• James used his position as both and Aurora and the Head of a powerful and Ancient house to make sure every Death Eater that was brought before him faced justice
• And when the Minstery refused to put away rich men who turned out to be Death Eaters he would use his title as a member of the Family-Who-Lived to remind people what could happen if they let these men walk
• James helped put away men like Peter Pettigrew, Luscious Malfory, Barty Crouch Jr., and Severous Snape, so that his son could have a better and safer future
• Soon James was promoted to Head Aurora for all his work against Death Eaters and keeping people safe
• But he had a feeling him being a member of the Family-Who-Lived also played a part in thay
• As Harry grew older and started to attend primary school (Lily insisted) Lily accepted the job as the Ancient Runes and Muggle Studies professor at Hogwarts
• At first a lot of the students were nervous around her, she was a member of the Family-Who-Lived, which meant she had to be a very powerful witch and very tough to help defeat He Who Must Not Be Named
• As the students walked into the room they were expecting a very stern woman who wouldn't put up with anything
• But soon she was able to disprove their expectations with her kindness and patience
• Soon she was known as the cool professor throughout all the houses
• When they entered her classroom she didn't care about the colors they wore, where they came from, or what their blood status was
• They were her students first everything else second
• She loved her job, she even started a couple of clubs for the muggleborns and halfbloods to help them keep connected to their roots in the muggle world, with some curious purebloods joining the clubs as well
• Such as a muggle sports club with Madame Hooch were they would play sports like football and rugby
• Lily would also smuggle in muggle shows using magic, the most popular one being Doctor Who
• She showed an episode in class once and got a lot of the purebloods obsessed with it
• Now she plays episodes in her classroom every Tuesday and Thursday during lunch
• But no matter how busy they got in their professional lives Lily and James always made sure to put their family first
• They made sure they were there for dinner every nigh and they would switch off who would pick Harry up from school with Remus and Sirus picking Harry up when neither could
• The two men practically lived at Potter Manor with the family the only sleeping in their own apartments when they had a date (Sirius) or if it was close to the full moon (Remus)
• With them being known as the Family-Who-Lived James and Lily was careful to not exposed Harry too much to the wizarding world
• They didn't want him growing up in the lime light with constant scrutiny from others
• Because of this they were very careful with who they let Harry interact with
• The first family was of course the one of Harry's godmother the Longbottoms Alice, Frank, and Neville
• The Second Family was the Weasleys who did everything they could to help during the war
• The third was of course Sirius' favorite cousin Andy and her husband Ted with their little girl in tow who soon became the leader of the children when she was home from Hogwarts
• The fourth family surprised a lot of people because it was the Malfoy family.
• After Lucious went to Azkaban, Narcissa reconnected with her estranged sister Andy, begging for forgiveness and to start over
• Andy of course welcomed her sister back into her life with open arms and vouch for her with the Potters
• The boys from each family seem to take to each other almost immediately
• And much to James' glee and Lily's annoyance Harry seemed to inherent James' knack for causing trouble and dragging innocent boys down with him
• Harry loved his family and his life
• He got to play with his best friends Ron, Neville, and Draco almost everyday
• His dad and uncles would tell him all sort of stories from their days in Hogwarts and the trouble they caused
• His favorite was about how his dad first met his mom
• Lily would always roll her eyes when James told that story making sure to give Harry her side of it
• When Harry turned 11 and got his Hogwarts letter the Muaraders sat Harry, Ron, Neville, and Draco down and told them about the Muraders and officially passed the name down to the new group of boys, giving them the map and Harry the invincibility cloak
• The group of boys made a promise with eachother that they would become animagis just like the original members
• Lily overheard them and made them promise to let her know when they started the process so she can at least keep an eye on them in case something goes wrong
• They also promised to stay friends no matter what house they were sorted into
• September 1st came faster then expected and soon the Potter family (uncles included) were dropping Harry off on Platform 9¾
• As they past through the barrier Harry told them he was going to look to see if his friends had arrived yet running off before any of the adults could tell him no
• Lily *shaking her head*: That boy, I swear he's just like you, James.
• James *laighing and wrapping his arms around Lily's waist*: He's much more like you my love with his brilliant mind and caring heart
• Lily: Flattery will get you no where Potter. Can any of you see Harry or the Malfoys, Longbottoms, or Weasleys?
• The men began to scan the crowd looking for the young Potter and his friends
• Sirius*pointing in the opposite direction Harry went*: There are the Malfoys
• James: And I can see Frank by the train
• Remus *stifling laughter and pointing*: And I think I see history repeating itself
• The other adults looked over to where Remus was pointing seeing that Remus was right
• They could see Harry with a lovestruck look on his face as he talked to a young girl with wild brown hair and her obviously muggle parents
• Sirius let out barking laughter as he watch little prongslet grab the girl and start dragging her over to them with her parents following the children, probably a bit worried about this strange boy taking their daughter away
• Harry *dragging the girl over*: MUM! DAD! UNCLE PADFOOT! UNCLE MOONY! I want you guys to meet Hermione Granger!
• James *trying to hide his laughter*: Hello Hermiome it's nice to meet you
• Hermione *shyly*: Hello
• The group of adults also introduced themselves to Hermione's parents as the two children continued to chat with eachother
• Slowly the rest of the group started to join them with Harry introducing each boy to his new friend
• Lily couldn't help but noticed that as Harry eagerly introduce Hermione to the other boys, he also had his arm wrapped around her the whole time not seeming to realize that he was doing it.
• As the time came for the kids to board the train goodbyes were exchanged, hugs were shared, and tears were shed (James: They're not tears Lily! It's liquid bride!)
• As the kids were about to board the train Harry turned to the Grangers wrapping his arm around Hermione's shoulders again
• Harry: Don't worry about Hermione I'll take care of her
• Hermione gets a bit of a sour expression on her face, turning to face Harry as his arm fell from her shoulders
• Hermione: I am more than capable of taking care of myself
• Harry's lovestruck expression returned
• Harry: Of that I have no doubt
• The two said their final goodbyes to the adults before boarding the train
• The adults stayed on the platform watching as the Hogwarts Express drove out of sight
• As the adult wave goodbye and the Granger's left the train station sighting the need to return to their dentistry practice and the other families left as well the Muraders burst into laughter
• Lily*hitting James on the shoulder*: This is all your fault!
• James *still laughing*: What?
• Sirius: Don't be too hard on him Lily
• Remus *shaking his head*: That poor girl has no idea what she just got drag into
• James: Did you see her reaction to Harry's comment at the end? No, she isn't going to be drag into anything else so easily. She's a fighter I can tell
• Lily: Well we'll just have to wait and see

Meet me on the battlefield Even on the darkest night I will be your sword & shield, your camouflage And you will be mine Echos of the shots ring out We may be the first to fall Everything could stay the same Or we could change it all Meet me on the battlefield
