The Twins Who Lived: The Sorcerer's Stone

As a baby I lay silently, fast asleep in the cart attached to Hagrid’s blue motorcycle. The rumbling wasn’t enough to wake me from my deep slumber. We travelled through flight for some time until the motorcycle came to a halt in front of an oddly looking three story house. Hagrid stood up from the bike and slowly made his way to the door and knocked slowly, as well as regrettably. A medium height red-headed woman answered the door with a towel in one hand. “Hagrid, what do I have the pleasure?” She asked in confusion. “Good day, Molly. I’m afraid to tell you that James and Lily Potter have been murdered by You-Know-Who.” Hagrid mumbled and glanced back at the motorcycle momentarily. “Oh dear, how terrible” Molly started “Wait, what about the children?” She asked concerned. “Well Mrs. Weasley, that’s why I’m here; Professor Dumbledore requested that I ask you if you would take one of the twins. The choice is yours.” Hagrid told to woman as her face grew sad. “Perhaps the girl, nothing against Harry of course, but I would love another girl.” Molly Weasley replied as Hagrid made his way over to the motorcycle and picked up a single bundle of plaid blanket. Hagrid walked back towards Molly whilst rubbing his thumb over my flushed cheek. Tears filled his eyes as he handed me over to Molly Weasley. Molly caught sight of my lightning bolt shaped cut that had been newly formed on my forehead. “Oh my word, what happened to the poor dear?” Molly asked lightly running her index finger over the lightning bolt. “Well, after murdering Lily and James, You-Know-Who attempted to kill the youngins, both of them, but out of some oddity failed to do so. Yet, in attempt rumors say that he has been destroyed, or is too weak to go on.” Hagrid replied as Molly grew shocked. “Bloody hell, what a terrible fate that could have been,” She mumbled as Hagrid nodded. “Well, I must be off. I am to deliver the little tyke to his aunt and uncle under the direction of Professor Dumbledore.” He said as he backed away. Molly looked up and nodded at him and waved as he set flight once more. Thus marking a long adventure to come.
