Note: This isn't going to turn into a slash fic or anything along those lines. Also this is my first real fic so I am going to make some mistakes and I would love some pointers from anyone who reads this.

This wasn't what Severus Snape was expecting when he was called to the latest meeting with his fellow Death Eaters. He had come expecting some planning of a murder or perhaps Voldemort had someone he already wanted killed in mind and called them to carry out the deed. He was use to the latter and often went on the raids which he always tried to sabotage in the subtlest of ways so no one would suspect him of being a spy.
To even his surprise he was successful more often then not by doing small and sometimes stupid things. Like when he was still new to being a spy and saved a families life by intentionally getting his cloak stuck in the mouth of a Venis Rose Bush. A rather odd plant that was the enchanted offspring of two Muggle plants and where known to be vicious to anyone other then the person whom feed it. It took all four Death Eaters on that mission to get the plant off of him and get his cloak out of it's mouth which effectively gave the family enough time to get out of the house and get away. To this day the only thing Snape remembered clearly about that night was the intense pain that shot though his nerves like millions of microscopic bullets after he and his fellow Death Eaters failed to complete there task.
Lord Voldemort was a rather unforgiving man when it came to punishments for his followers failures and it would often take several of Snape's strongest potions before he would even feel well enough to walk after a night of Cruciatus Curses and beatings. Snape had always thought it odd that Voldemort seemed to take so much pleasure in torturing the very people who supported him which is was part he decided to turn against Voldemort albeit a small one.
Deep in his own thoughts he thoughts but still listening to Voldemort's speech the thought he heard Voldemort use the words "traitor" and "spy" but he couldn't have. How would he have found out? Did he make a mistake and not realize it? Did Voldemort suspect him and rig one of there last missions to find out for sure?
Thoughts racing though his mind he didn't notice the tall figure with blazing red eyes standing in front of him until he felt an ice cold hand wrap it's fingers around his throat. "I could kill your right now" he hissed in a snake like voice and would make the toughest mans skin crawl with fear "but mercy is not something I give to those to betray me." turning his head to his other followers we went on"No I have decided that I am going to have some fun with this animal." turning back to Snape he took out his wand and murmured a spell which reviled a large black cage. "Take the traitor to his temporary home". Suddenly Snape was grabbed by two Death Eaters and dragged to the cage where he was thrown in with brut force.
Walking to the cage and looking down at Snape like he was a piece of meat waiting to be killed he added in a cold and deathly voice "I have some finally preparations to attend to before our fun little game begins. Now be a good little boy and keep quite". Raising his wand and aiming at Snape's chest while laughing in a insanity in his voice that made a Snape want to scream but before he got the chance Voldemort hit him with a stunning spell that could have knocked out a large troll for several hours.
Snape woke up to the rather odd feeling of someone watching from a distance and looked around to find the cage door open and no one in sight. On the ground was a envelope addressed to him with the words "read now" in large letters. He thought for a second about what it might say and the reason the cage door was open and everyone gone. A look of horror creped across his face as he read.
Dear Severus,
I haven't the time to sit here and write much so I will get to the point and set the rules. I have decided that sense you wish you act like an animal I would kill you like one. Now you might have already found that you cannot use any spells. That's because I have warded this part of the forest against your magic signature so you could case even the simplest of spells. I would hate to seen my pry escape before I got the chance to hunt it down.
As for the rules…. well there are none. That would have taken away from my fun but if by some miracle you last 48 hours I will weaken the ward and let you cast basic spells. If you think I am being nice think again. There just wouldn't be much fun in having you starve to death.
Let the hunt begin!
