Chapter One: The Prophecy

To say he wasn't happy would be an understatement on the behalf of Severus Snape.

He was sitting quite uninterested during a meeting of the Order of the Phoenix and kept an eye on the werewolf and his nemesis at the end of the table.

There were several reasons for that; first: he could make sure that Sirius Black would stay away from him, second: he wouldn't be so obvious in his staring at them.

Severus had known for a while now that he was attracted to the dark man who almost killed him back in school and the dark creature beside him.

"Headmaster, why exactly are we here? I can't waste my time sitting here and listen to the yapping, I've got important things to do!" Severus' impatience had won out his thirst for knowledge and research.

"Severus, believe me, that I've got a good reason to summon you all here. We found a prophecy which describes the end of Voldemort..." Albus Dumbledore was one of the few people who would speak the dark Lord's name aloud. He continued without paying attention to the shudder which ran through the others as he spoke that name. "This prophecy mentions four people whom are the children of fate which will destroy the evil and lead to a new era of light. But we don't know who these people are and I thought that we would be able to find them sooner if all of you read it and helped decode it." Albus took out his wand and in front of every person in the room appeared a piece of parchment.

In Silence they began to read.

The end of Evil

Those who stand together
Will be sealed in love and destiny
Those who wield the power
Will gain the eternity of peace

Four will be the children of fate
Four will be the carriers of new lives
Each to have an anchor in two mates

First will be the one whom was done wrong for the past decade and more
The mates shall be the one with the connection to the current evil one who gives his live and freedom, the other shall be a creature called dark but with a gentle heart and powerful love.
These three come from the world of wonders and will return to this with the others.
One out of the house of loyalty, one of the house of cunning.

Second will be the one out of the environment of evil in the normal world who has shown compassion, courage and love to no end to the world
The mates shall be both past evils, one with a soul, the other with a device it got to do no harm, but which will be destroyed once they bond.
These shall go with all the others to the world of wonders.

Third will be the one with the painful connection to the current evil one.
The mates shall be the older faire light and dark one who is an unacknowledged fighter for the light
and the other will be the past of the evil one once that is healed of all darkness.
Both will be out of the house of the snakes.

Fourth will be the one who seems to be normal in the world of wonders.
This one's powers are yet not awakened but will be once the bonding is done.
The sword shaped mark on the upper thigh and the mark of pain on the chest will make this one recognizable.
The mates shall be the little faire one who hides behind masks and the dark one whose mind is the greatest strength. Both will be out of the house of cunning and planning.

There shall be others who give their help without hesitation and whom would give their lives.

First will be the light witch out of the natural world with the one who cannot look at the full shining light at night.

Second will be those who loved each other in the past and where separated by conscience and fear.
Those shall love each other again without desperation and with compassion.

Third will be the one who thinks he is nothing and in reality is all one wish to be. The mate will be out of the city of Angels and has fought besides the demon who wears the face of an Angel.

The last one will be a strong one 'cause the path in the past was dark, but it will be illuminated again.

The help to this one will be known to the second of the powers and hides behind a mask of indifference and the pretence of superficiality.
