Intro/prologue
So as you probably saw from the description this is going to be if Neville and Harry were switched. So Voldemort chose to murder Nevilles parents instead. Probably it's mostly going to be in Harry's perspective since we've already heard what it's like for the chosen one. All the rights of original characters and scenes go to J.K Rowling. Thanks everybody! The update day for this book will be Tuesday.
Voldemort's P.O.V
"Please my Lord. There is another boy who was born at the same time. He's the son of the auror Frank Longbottom!" Severus pleaded with me as I got ready to eliminate the Potters. My eyes narrowed.
"How can you be sure that he is the one and not the Potters boy?" I questioned.
"How can you be sure that he isn't?" he countered. I sighed and rubbed my temples. This wasn't something to be treated lightly.
"What will you do if I decide to face the Longbottoms boy instead?"
"Anything." Severus whispered. The gears in my head were turning. This was good that Severus told me this but love is weakness. If he loves somebody on the other side. What kind of loyalty would he have to me? I already knew my answer but I made his wait even longer.
"Very well. I will spare the Potters. But that doesn't mean they won't be harmed." I warned. "All of the order members are being targeted and I'm not going to spare the lives of a few for one person if they get in my way." I hissed.
"Yes. Of course. Thank you my lord." Severus bowed and left. I twiddled my wand in my hands. One line of the prophecy worried me. It said "neither can live while the other survives". That must mean one of us will die soon. I wasn't about to worry about it. For how could a small baby defeat me? Shaking away my thoughts I disapparated. The Longbottoms hideout was already exposed seeing as everyone thought I was going after the Potters.
Once I got there I blasted the door apart. It was a home out in the middle of nowhere so nobody was around.
"He's here! Go!" I heard Frank yell. The man came from around the hall ready to face me. He put up a fight but wasn't good enough. Within a minute he was lying dead on the floor. I raced up the stairs with no time to waste. The baby couldn't get away. Only one of the doors were closed and I knew that was the one. Instantly I unlocked it and barged in. The room was empty. Furiously I looked out of the window and the small figure of Alice Longbottom was vanishing from sight.
"No!" I yelled. In desperation I cast the killing curse at her but it was too late. They were both gone. Agitated and frustrated I apparated away.
"How did it go?" Bellatrix asked eagerly once I arrived. Her heavily pregnant body holding my heir tried to get up from her chair to greet me.
"Get away from me!" I blew up a table and stormed off to my room. There wasn't any room for mistakes and I just made a huge one. One that forever changed the future. I couldn't choose the Potter boy now. I've already made the other one my equal. I would just have to find another way to kill the boy.
