"We still need a wand." Harry reminded Hagrid.

"A wand? Well, you'll want Ollivanders. There ain't no place better. Why don't you two run along there and wait. I just got one more thing I gotta do. Won't be long."

Hagrid left them alone and they walked inside the little shop called 'Ollivanders Wand Shop'.

"Hello?" Harry whispered.

"You gotta talk louder than that, silly." Nora said to him, hitting the back of his head but not too hardly it would hurt.

"Hello?" He repeated, but louder this time, not wanting another slap from his sister.

They heard something moving from their right. Both Harry and Nora looked to see a ladder moving their way, with a man on it. Who looked surprised when he saw them.

"I wondered when I'd be seeing you, Mrs. and Mr. Potter." He got off the ladder and started to look between the wands, which were all laying stacked up on each other. "It seems only yesterday that your parents were here buying their first wands. Ah." He spoke and grabbed a box.

"Here we are." He handed it over to Harry, who just stood still with the wand in his hand. "Well, give it a wave." Mr. Ollivander said annoyed. So Harry did, but it went horribly wrong because drawers came out of closets and papers flew out of it. "Apparently not."

Ollivander handed him another one and a vase broke. "I wonder..." He said trailing off, wondering if this could be the right wand for the famous Harry Potter.

He handed the third wand over to the young boy and immediately the lights got brighter and wind started to blow. "Curious, very curious."

"Sorry, but what's so curious?" Nora asked, looking at him confused. She found this man strange with all his 'curious'.

"Wait here."

He walked away again, took a box and went back towards them. He handed Nora the wand and the same thing that happened to Harry, was happened with her too. "Wow." She spoke. "That's so cool."

"I remember every wand I've ever sold, Mrs. Potter. It so happens that the phoenix, whose tail feather resides in your wand, gave two other feathers. Just two others. It is curious that you two should be destined for these wands when their brother gave you both the scar."

"And who owned that wand, Mr. Ollivander?" She asked.

"We do not speak his name. The wand chooses the witch or wizard, Mrs. Potter. It's not always clear why. But I think it is clear that we can expect great things from you, you too Mr. Potter. After all, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did great things. Terrible, yes, but great." Mr.Ollivander walked away when they had both paid for their wands.

"Is He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named Voldemort, the one that killed you?" Finn asked, getting a nod in return from the red head, who was staring at the screen with sadness.

She and the others should have been there for their kids. They should have gotten them robes. They should have gotten them their first wand. They should have been with them, not Hagrid.

Although the red head was entirely thankful for the giant to help the kids get their stuff for Hogwarts.

"You said that they got the scar from a spell that rebounded, what spell?" Elijah asked.

He would murder anyone who touched his daughter and for sure if they left some kind of mark on her.

"He tried to kill them but that spell rebounded at him." Lily said with sadness remembering the day it happened as if it was yesterday.

If there was anything in life she would've wished to go different. It would have been October 31, 1993.

The Potters looked at each other in shock, after hearing all this new information, but also slightly scared for the other one.

"Harry! Nora!" They heard Hagrid so they turned towards the window of the shop. "Happy birthday." And now they saw the snow white owl and the white kitten.

"Oh my god." Nora said, happily, before running out the shop, towards the kitten and Harry towards the owl.

"Oh, look how happy she is, brother." Kol spoke hanging onto Klaus' arm, who did not like it one bit.

"Get off me." The Hybrid growled at him.

"But look how cute our niece is. And how happy she is with that kitten." The youngest Original brother squaled.

And although Elijah wouldn't have reacted the same childish way as his younger brother, he was more than happy to see Nora so happy.

"You all right? You both seem very quiet." Hagrid asked seeing the two not eating. Harry just turning his spoon around in his soup and Nora playing with her new kitten, Belle.

"He killed our parents, didn't he? The one who gave us this." Harry answered while pointing at his scar. "You know, Hagrid. I know you do."

"First, and understand this, Harry, because it's very important. Not all wizards are good. Some of them go bad. A few years ago there was one wizard who went as bad as he could go. His name was V- His name was V-" Hargid tried to pronounce the name.

"Maybe if you wrote it down?" Nora suggested.

"No, I can't spell it. All right, Voldemort."

"Voldemort?" Both Harry and Nora asked loudly but they got shushed by Hagrid very fast.

"It was dark times. Very dark times.

MEMORY OF OCTOBER 31, 1993

A figure with a mantle around him was walking towards a house. They could hear Hagrid's voice in the background. "Voldemort started to gather followers. Brought them over to the Dark Side."

A wand opened the lock from the front door of the house. James Potter standing in front of the door, without his wand, died quickly after the figure send a spell towards him. Jasmine ran towards her brother but met dead with a simple and quick spell.

"Anyone that stood up to him ended up dead." Now the figure was standing in a room with Lily.

"Stand aside you silly girl, stand aside now." The man demanded.

"Not them, please, have mercy, please." But the man ignored her begging and killed her.

"Your parents fought against him, but nobody lived once he decided to kill them. Nobody, not one, except you two."

Now they saw two babies sitting in a baby crib with a wand pointed towards them.

He cast a spell, but all they could see was green light.

END OF MEMORY

"Oh my god." Caroline spoke silently.

"We're sorry for what happened to you both." Elijah uttered with tears his eyes to Lily. They had died to protect his child and their son.

And Jasmine.

His Jasmine was dead.

The Mikaelson felt like he couldn't even catch a breath anymore.

Why her?

Why all of them?

Why did they have to die?

He guessed that was what it was like. Being a parent. Always wanting to protect your child. Always feeling the need to protect them?

He knew how he felt about being a father.

If he would have to sacrifice himself to give Nora a happy childhood, he would without a second thought.

He felt even more sad knowing that Jasmine had died with them. But Elijah knew it was for Nora.

He didn't know what was worse. Seeing his daughter have such an awful life or watching the love of his life die so quickly, without any way to bring her back.

Rebekah grabbed her older brother's hand in support. She saw how badly this effected him.

The Mikaelson and the others in the room found it unfair that two kind kids had to endure such pain from such a young age.

"Us? Voldemort tried to kill us?" Harry asked, shocked.

"Yes, that ain't no ordinary cut on your forehead, Harry. A mark like that only comes from being touched by a curse, and an evil curse at that.

"What happened to V-?" Nora cut herself off seeing Hagrid's face. "To You-Know-Who?"

"Well, some say he died. Codswallop, in my opinion. Nope, I reckon he's out there still too tired to carry on." He snapped out of his thoughts. "But one thing's absolutely certain. Something about you two stumped him that night. That's why you're famous. That's why everybody knows your names. You are the boy and girl who lived."

"He's still out there?" Elena asked. "Somebody must have catched him?"

If he was so dangerous? Why would you wanna follow him?

But the answer was easy. There were really only two options to such question.

1. fear.

2. you're nuts. Like completely out of your mind nuts.

"We're gonna kill him, brother, no harm will come to my niece." Klaus said to Elijah, past family argument long forgotten.

"Maybe we can take a break?" Elijah asked the spirit, who nodded understanding. He just wanted to get out of that room to think. Somebody killed Jasmine, somebody tried to kill his daughter and that person is still roaming around free.

The Mikaelson's walked in the kitchen not wanting be to anywhere near the Scooby-Doo gang when they discussed their youngest family member.

The other siblings thought it was best not to mention the mother of his child in front of Elijah, unless he himself started talking about her.

"She is bloody amazing already. I know it. Did you see how the room liter lighted up when she touched her wand?" Kol asked exited seeing his niece so happy.

"God I hope we don't have another Kol." Rebekah muttered under her breath, Kol hearing that just gave her a dirty look.

"What is it brother? I thought you were happy to have a daughter." Finn asked, seeing his brother leaning on the kitchen table with his head in his hands.

"I am. Just worried that the person who tried to kill her before will come back, if he's still walking around."

Elijah promised himself that if he ever laid eyes on this Voldemort, he would kill him slowly and painfully.

"Don't worry Elijah, we'll protect her. No harm will come to her." Klaus said but Elijah shook his head.

"She could be a grown up right now. How many times has she been in danger by now? I don't have a good feeling about this." Elijah voiced his concerns.

"It'll be okay, Elijah." Rebekah said, even though she wasn't sure of it herself.

They decided to go back to the living room and the screen started playing again.

Ugh, I hate writing Lily and James (and in this case also Jasmine's) death. They should've lived. Like what do you mean, they're dead? They are just living their best live and taking care of Harry.

And don't let me get started about Remus and Sirius life story after Hogwarts.

I'm gonna cry now. Or read a story were they're all still alive. That's my therapy.

Be sure to comment. I love reading them and it keeps me motivated!
