Author's Note 1: Okay, so I am violating my normal posting schema since I missed the one on monday. I will still hopefully be posting something on Monday, but this is going to be a mass post today because I was busy this past week or two with writing. Please don't yell at me, but I am going to have to drop Moirai's Wager after I hit the fourth or so chapter, as I hit a rather hefty brick wall in that story. That said, I am still writing Black Blood, as that seems to be becoming my epic… assuming my Muse allows it to become such.

Now this is a new story that I hope will take the place of Moirai's Wager in my regular updates, please stay tuned… Additionally, this story is in response to Whitetigerwolf's Mutant's Son, Founder Reincarnated and Bachelorette Challenges. The details of those challenges can be found on his forum at the below URL:

Fanfiction (d_o_t) net (slash) forum (slash) Whitetigerwolf-s-Challenges (slash) 83467

Just replace the (d_o_t) with a period and the (slash) with a / symbol.

Oh, and please note, that when I get to the point of doing lemons, they will be found exclusively on the AO3 version of this story.

James Potter had just arrived back on the Hogwarts Express to return to school for the remainder of his Sixth Year and was sitting comfortably in his compartment with his three friends and fellow Marauders when the door to the compartment rocketed open and three bolts of red energy landed into his friends, knocking them each unconscious, though Remus Lupin struggled against the stunning spell momentarily.

The next thing James knew was that a very angry, but also very feminine voice absolutely bellowed out the incantation "PUNCTUM!" causing a bright white light to slam into James' face incredibly hard. This had the effect of causing his entire face to feel as if he had just been stung by hundreds of angry bees.

"James, that is what you get for forgetting the contraceptive charms, you arse!" the voice of Lily Evans scolded him from directly in front of his insensate face.

"Wait… what?" James ground out through the pain.

"I would congratulate you, but I don't feel in a very celebratory mood right now. The point is, we are going to be parents. You better take responsibility for this mess up and marry me like you claim you want to do," Lily scolded some more.

"I'm going to be a father?" James questioned, "Of course, I'll do whatever I can to make this right Lils, you can count on me!"

"Good!" And with that Lily marched out of the compartment to go find some of her friends.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Potter, you have just given birth to a beautiful little girl, what will you call her?" Madam Pomfrey inquired as she handed the newborn child to her newlywed mother.

James hadn't been able to arrange anything until relatively late into the summer, but the two were now man and wife. Though, James was still expected to take another wife for his other title, something about the House of Peverell. Not that Lily particularly cared one way or the other at this moment, as she gazed intently at her baby girl. James had been ordered out of the birthing chambers by Madam Pomfrey when he couldn't stop complaining that Lily was going to break his hands. Honestly, her new husband was such a sissy.

Lily looked up at Madam Pomfrey, "Roselia Annalise Potter."

"A beautiful name for a beautiful child, my dear. I shall get the paperwork to make it official," Madam Pomfrey stated.

"Thank you, Madam Pomfrey… for everything," Lily said sincerely.

"Not at all my dear," Poppy said as she turned and walked into her office.

Lily knew she shouldn't have done it… but she was really, really pissed off with James today. However she knew she was seriously in trouble when she had finished her entire bottle of Bruichladdich X4+1 Quadrupled Whiskey, and only then noticed the particularly buff young man sitting next to her with a curious look on his face.

"That is an interesting drink for such a petite young lady as you," the man stated with an amused Russian accent… one which made Lily's knickers moisten at the sound of it.

"Yes… well… I don't know… if you could please help me… I think I'll lose my balance if I try to stand at the moment," Lily struggled to come up with anything rational to say, and completely flubbed it.

"So… your place or mine?" the man asked.

"Oh… yours I think… mine would probably be awkward," Lily stated, not entirely rationally. Did she just agree to a one night stand?

The young man nodded his head in acknowledgement and said, "My name is Piotr by the way, though most just call me Peter."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Lily…" Lily said with a goofy smile as she shook his hand, he then picked her up in a bridal carry, much to her surprise and carried her out of the pub to the roars of laughter, cheers and catcalls of the crowd.

Lily Potter awoke with a resounding groan of agony, followed by pulling the helpfully placed trash bin over to her and cradling it as she proceeded to vomit up what felt like her entire small intestines. This wasn't at all helped by the fact that her loins felt as though she had just gone several rounds with freaking Asterion, the Bull of King Minos…

"Why do I feel as though I just had sexual intercourse with the Minotaur?" Lily asked rhetorically.

"Yeah that seems to be the common consensus I get from each of my girlfriends," a young male voice with a russian accent spoke up from the small attached kitchenette.

Lily looked up to see a truly statuesque young man, "Oh, so I did have sexual relations with the minotaur then? Well… I hope James can forgive me… then again, it's his own damn fault for cheating on me without me being present."

The man coughed over his shoulder as he turned to regard Lily, "So wait… you mean you're married?"

"Yeah," Lily said with an amused tone to her voice, "I guess I must have been really out of it last night to neglect to mention that, huh?"

"I didn't see a ring…" the man stated.

"Oh! Sorry about that… that darn tacky thing James got me has a habit of hiding itself whenever I go into the mundane world," Lily stated, "But I really shouldn't be talking about…"

"It's alright, I know about magic. I'm acquaintances with Stephen Strange," the man said, "Since it is clear you don't remember me from last night, I suppose I should probably re-introduce myself. I'm Piotr Nikolaievitch Rasputin, though most people just call me Peter Nicholas."

Lily nodded in understanding, if what Peter just said was true, then he was somehow related to the infamous Grigori Rasputin. Deciding not to press the issue, she instead said, "Well, to formally introduce myself, I am Lady Lily Jasmine Potter of the House of Potter. It is nice to make your… well actually acquaintance would be too distant now that we've had sex, wouldn't it?"

"Ya, I suppose it would," Peter acknowledged.

"Now... I don't mean to be a bother, but I don't suppose either of us remembered contraceptive methods last night?" Lily questioned.

"Um…" Peter said, "You said you had done something to prevent pregnancy… I didn't really press the issue beyond that."

Lily's face tightened as she thought on the matter, "Uh-huh… well fifty-percent chance says that what I did was a contraceptive charm… other fifty-percent chance says I accidentally cast a fertility booster. Either way, I won't know for a few weeks."

"So… if you are pregnant, do you plan to keep the child?" Peter asked.

"I think so… and before you ask, no I will not be leaving my husband… For two reasons. I am in a magically binding marriage… though apparently magically binding marriages don't stop drunken stupidity. And because of the fact that he and I already have a daughter," Lily explained.

"Ah, well that makes marginal sense… no point punishing someone when they are inebriated," Peter agreed.

"Anyways, I had best get going…" Lily said, "I fear James will probably be sending the cavalry out looking for me if I don't get back soon… and when the cavalry consists of a ragtag anti-terrorist magical militia group…"

"Yeah, probably best not to keep such people waiting overly long. Here, before you go, let me give you my number… just in case something comes up," Peter said as he quickly scribbled something down and handed it to Lily.

"No offense, Peter; but I'm not entirely sure what you can do for me in my situation," Lily stated as she accepted the piece of paper.

Peter smiled and abruptly, like it was fluid flowing over his skin, his entire body changed into an extremely shiny metallic substance, "They call me Colossus. I'm actually one of the founding members of the X-Men. My body repels most magical spells."

Lily felt like she had just been hit over the head with a frying pan, yet again. All she could say in light of this new information was, "Oh."

"Congratulations Mrs. Potter, you have just given birth to a boy," the attending Mediwitch stated as she handed Lily her child.

"So… was he born on July 31st, or August 1st?" James Potter questioned.

"The exact time of delivery is 23:59:59," the attending mediwitch stated with a perturbed look on her face, "Now what shall the two of you name him?"

"Harry James Potter!" James stated with confidence.

"Actually, James… we will be naming him, Harry James Piotrevitch Rasputin-Potter," Lily countermanded.

"What? Why?" James questioned.

"We already discussed this, James. And I don't feel like dragging my heels over this discussion every time we have a discussion over Harry's name," Lily argued.

"Oh… oh very well," James caved to his wife, knowing it would be entirely pointless. Lily had never been entirely certain that the child was this Piotr's, and not his, but she had been adamant about naming him in honor of the man.

"Very well, then I will draw up the paperwork," And with that, the mediwitch walked off to get the necessary paperwork.

xXx The Potter's Cottage, Godric's Hollow xXx

Little Roselia Potter was sitting in the playpen with her one year old little brother laughing as he tried to build her a wall out of his legos. She was only just barely three years old, but she was able to remember just about everything that has ever happened to her with near perfect clarity. She may not be able to replicate some of the feats of whatever it was the adults were doing on a daily basis, but she did remember them.

Roselia's attention was diverted from her little brother as the door to the playroom burst open and their mother ran in, slammed the door shut and then ran to stand protectively over her children, "Mummy?"

"Shush, Rosie, it's going to be alright… everything is going to be alright," Lily soothed.

Roselia recognized those words, that was what her mother said whenever she or Harry got hurt and were crying. But neither Roselia nor Harry were crying at the moment so what was wrong?

"Mummy wha's wro-" Roselia started to say when the door to the playroom was blasted off its hinges and a man in a hooded cloak entered the room.

"Stand aside woman, and you may yet live. I am only after the boy…" the man stated coldly in a voice that sounded similar to a snake's hiss.

"Not Harry! Take me instead but not my children!" Roselia's mother cried out, stretching her arms out protectively, causing Rose's eyes to widen in sudden understanding. Even Harry was watching what was happening now.

"I said to stand aside. Do you not value your own life?" the man questioned.

"I would die every time if it meant the safety of my children!" Lily stated firmly.

"So be it then, Avada Kedavra!" the man stated just as coldly as a jet of deathly green energy launched itself from his little stick and hit their mother. This caused Lily to crash to the ground, dead before she had hit the ground.

"Now, the girl will become my new Horcrux, while the boy shall die…" the man stated as he began casting a spell and aiming it towards Roselia. But before it had the chance to so much as hit her, a silvery metallic form placed itself in-between the girl and spell. This caused the spell to ricochet off the form's body and hit the man square in the chest.

"GHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" the man screamed in agony as his body was torn asunder by the energies of the spell that would in any other entity or object, readied them for receiving a portion of his very soul.

Rose looked at the thing that had just interposed itself between her and the spell and was completely shocked to discover the completely metallic form of her little brother, "Harry?"

That seemed to shock the young boy enough to cause him to revert back to his natural state. Whatever that was, Rose recognized the fact that Harry had just saved her life.

Unknown to Roselia, due to the inner workings of magic, and the fact that both of her parents had passed away this night and she had been designated the Heiress Apparent of the House of Potter, by recognizing the fact that Harry had saved her life, she had enacted a lifedebt. Unfortunately, due to being at such a young age, and there being no legal representative for the two children who had been appointed by the Wizengamot at this point in time, Magic itself intervened.

Roselia was now in a magically binding betrothal to her younger half-brother, and had ceded the rights to all of her titles of nobility to him as well. These were decisions that were decided by Magic itself, and as such could not be overturned by any amount of legal footwork. However due to the fact that Harry now possessed the rights to the House of Potter, Peverell, possibly Rasputin, and even the recently created minor House of Evans, Harry would be expected to be married to more than one wife. He would end up with at least three, possibly even four.

A short time later Rose's Unca Padfoot stumbled into the room, "Unca Padfoot! Mummy… Mummy's…"

Sirius stooped down and checked Lily's vitals, "Damn, got here too late. I'm sorry Rosie, there's nothing I can do for your Mum. I need to get you and your brother out of here though. I called your Uncle Piotr, he knows what is happening and is going to be here soon… now-"

"Hullo there Sirius," a gruff voice said from the doorway.

Sirius slowly turned around to see a large man in the doorway, "Hagrid? What are you doing here?"

"Professor Dumbledore be sending me ter collect the young'ns. Wants me ter bring'm to Hogwarts soon as possible," Hagrid said.

"I'm sorry, but I can't let you do that," Sirius stated.

"I'm not 'bout ter disobey tha Headmaster Sirius. If ya want ya can bring it up wit him," Hagrid countered.

"Now look Hagrid, I've been asked to bring these kids to one of Lily's relatives, one who will look after them and give them the proper care that they need…" Sirius stated.

"Sorry Sirius, orders are orders, and I'll not budge on this," Hagrid said as he shoved Sirius to the side and made his way into the room.

"Dammit to hell, Hagrid! Don't do this!" Sirius yelled. Unfortunately his protests went unheard as the giant of a man picked up both Roselia, much to her displeasure, and Harry, and carried them both out of the room.

"Aww hell Hagrid, you're not going to Apparate or Floo with them are you?" Sirius scrambled after the big knucklehead.

"How else am I expected ter travel?" Hagrid questioned.

"Take my motorbike. It can fly, I've shown you how to operate it, so you know it can lift you. I just hope I don't regret this, as I know I very likely will," Sirius said as he gave the bigger man his leave to depart.

"Thank ya, Sirius," the big man said, as he fastened the two children into the side car. Fortunately there was a side car… He then departed Godric's Hollow with them in tow.

Sighing, Sirius contemplated his next course of action. He couldn't exactly go and tell Piotr that he lost the kids. But he couldn't not tell him either… he had seen that man transform, and he didn't ever want to be on the receiving end of one of those metal fists if he could help it.

"So that is all that happened?" Piotr questioned Sirius after several moments of listening to the man talk.

"Er yeah… I'm not really sure what to do here, Pete," Sirius stated.

"Sirius, are you aware that I can at this exact instant, recall exactly where Lily and James were living?" Piotr questioned.

"What!? But that… no wait… that explains how Hagrid was there… bloody hell… this means that Voldemort wasn't simply told the secret, no, the Secret Keeper voluntarily revealed the secret to a room full of over a dozen different people whom he didn't know the identities of and who all meant Lily, James, Harry and Roselia some amount of harm," Sirius gaped.

"And now you've gone and lost Rosie and Harry!" Piotr stated angrily.

"I know that they've gone to Dumbledore. He'll put them somewhere they will be protected, mark my words," Sirius said.

"GET OUT!" Piotr yelled as he picked Sirius up by the color and hurled him bodily out of the apartment.

Once he was gone, Piotr pulled out a special device that was unique to the members of Xavier's institute. Pressing a few buttons, he spoke into the device, "Hello? Yeah, Professor, I need a favor. Can you do a search for my son and his half-sister?"

Waiting silently as the man on the other end of the line did something, a barely audible voice spoke back to the man, "I'm sorry Piotr, but I have been unable to find them. Something is hiding them from Cerebro."

"Dammit… thanks anyways, Professor," Piotr stated.

"Do not mention it. We will keep a look out for them. I am sure something will come up if you have lost them," the Professor stated.

xXx Chapter End xXx

Author's Note: Okay folks… before anyone asks… the pairing for this fic is already decided and is pretty much already set in stone. I will not be divulging the pairings ahead of time either, so don't go asking me about it.

Next up is the fact that things will be happening rather fast for the first few chapters, as I am doing something of a montage up until we get to the meat of the story. Do not get pissy at me over how this seems to be a highlight reel, that is how it is and it won't change.

While this story will have elements which are similar to Blood Brandy's Vegas Vacation Challenge, they are only similarities; there will ultimately be important differences between that Challenge and the results of this story.

That said, if you have issues with incestuous relationships, do not read this story. And yes, I altered the timeline slightly to make this story work the way I envision it working.
