Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter in any form at all it belongs to J.K. Rowling
Severus told Lord Voldemort, the prophecy, of a person becoming his equal and killing him. "This is great new Severus, I can find that kid and kill him, now time to contact our spies in the ministry," said Voldemort gleefully as a master of all evil could.
"My Lord, I am glad I have pleased you, if you don't mind I would like to retire to my chambers and get some rest, to be ready to help you with your plans, "yawned Severus with hunched shoulders and a tired face.
"You have served me well tonight, go get some rest," Voldemort bellowed. Severus walked away from Voldemort after he did a low bow to his lord. Voldemort had called for Lucius to come and find out what kids were born at the end of July. Severus tuned them out and went to take a nap.
When Severus woke up, he went straight to Lucius to see what he had found regarding the prophecy. He found Lucius in the study, waiting for the Dark Lord to awake from sleeping, to deliver the news. "Lucius what news do you bring do you know what kids were born at that time." Severus said to Lucius not even saying hello, which of course Lucius realized also.
"Hello to you too, Severus," said Lucius as he turned around and faced Severus. "What I found out will have to wait for the Lord, you know that more than I do, that all information goes to the Lord first. Besides why…."
Lucius was cut off when the Lord himself walked into the room. Severus and Lucius bowed deeply to him, and said together, "My Lord."
"Lucius what news do you bring me from the Ministry," said Voldemort.
"My Lord, there were two children born in that time period you gave me, Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom, from that information I can't tell which child it is, the Potter have a secret keeper so it will be hard to find them," said Lucius with his head down.
"I know already who it is, it is the Potter child, and as for the secret keeper, no man can keep his mouth shut under torture. Now leave me Lucius I have plans to make, Severus I need to ask you about a potion," commanded Voldemort as he sent off Lucius.
"My Lord, may I have a request please before you do the deed?" Severus said softly.
"Of course you can Severus"
"Please will you spare the woman Potter," Snape said softly. Even though it had been 5 years ago since he was close to lily he still had feelings for her. He loved her and that was his biggest weakness he had. He knew if he ever went against Lily in battle, he wouldn't fight back, even if he was arrested or killed by her hand it's what he deserved after he ruined their friendship all those years ago.
"Severus, that's an odd request, why do you care about this women so much?" asked Voldemort with a face that looked like he didn't care at all.
"Well, my Lord, I am not going to lie I want my revenge on my school rival, James Potter, and what not a better way than to take his wife," Severus told Voldemort only half lying.
"Well Severus I will honor your request and let the woman live."
"Thank you my Lord, now do you need assistance with your plan to kill the boy."
"No Severus I will go tonight and find the secret keeper and then I will go and kill the boy myself."
"As you wish my Lord," Severus told him with a deep bow, and he walked away smiling, and thinking all of his dreams were going to come true. He would finally get Lily after all these years.
Another Death Eater came up to him and told him the Dark Lord was gone, something had happened when he went to kill the Potter boy.
"What do you mean he is gone," said Severus
"It's just like I said he's gone," said the Death Eater.
Severus apparated to the Potter house, he walked in and heard crying from the upstairs. He glanced around and saw James body. He ran up the stairs and was shocked by the sight he saw, he saw Lily on the ground, and she looked dead and the baby sitting on the floor crying with his head bleeding. Severus screamed out his pain at seeing the love of his life dead. He heard a slight moan from Lily and stopped screaming immediately and ran to her side. He grabbed her and knew where he would take her, Dumbledore. Even though Dumbledore was on the opposite side he knew that Dumbledore, would help him and most definitely Lily.
Severus grabbed the child in one hand, even though he dispised the child, in so many ways, and then he grabbed Lily with his other arm.
Severus thought the words Hogsmead, and apparated there. He walked the long path, carrying Lily and the baby in his arms. He made it up to the castle. "DUMBLEDORE," screamed Severus as he sat Lily down and sat down exhausted. He looked down at the warm flesh in his arms; it instantly reminded him of James, his prosecutor of his school days. The baby was asleep, and in that sleeping form he looked precious, and a lot like Lily.
Dumbledore came down the hallway and saw the scene, Severus with a baby in his hand and Lily by his side unconscious. "Severus, what has happened here tonight," said Dumbledore a bit puzzled by this scene.
"James is dead, I told Voldemort of the prophecy, and he attacked the Potter family, I asked him to save Lily, and then I felt something wrong, so I went to the house which, was shown since James was dead, I found Lily, but I thought she was dead, and Harry was bleeding on his head, the Dark Lord was who knows where, I didn't know what to do," Severus said quickly, barely taking a breath at all.
"I see, well let's get Lily and Harry to the hospital wing so they can rest, while we have a nice talk," said Dumbledore calmly. Dumbledore did a levitating spell on Lily, and started walking toward the hospital wing. Severus got up and followed him, carrying the baby.
They reach the Infirmary, a short walk later, and Dumbledore placed Lily on the bed and called the leading Medi-witch to help her. Severus held Harry close to him, when Harry woke up crying. His cries where a high pitch scream that it shocked Severus. "Um….," Severus said while staring down at the baby. "What do I do, it won't stop crying."
"Severus, I bet he's hungry, Skiddy," called the Medi-witch. A slight pop was heard and a elf appeared before them. "Can you please get me a bottle of warm milk, please?" Another Pop was heard as the house elf left to get the milk. Five seconds later the elf came back and handed the witch, the milk, who handed it to Severus. "Can you feed him; I know he is a one year old and all but I think warm milk will be best to calm the baby down, I will be busy with dealing with the patient."
"Um…Sure," said Severus, not really sure what to do. Harry was still crying very loudly so Severus put the bottle in his mouth and prayed that he would stop crying and drink the milk. Harry stopped crying and leached on the bottle as it was his last life line. "Am I doing this right?" Severus just looked down at the kid like it was a foreign object.
"Yes Severus, you are doing it right," said Dumbledore, smiling at the scene he was seeing. Harry drank some more milk and then he snuggled against Severus, who had a faint smile against lips as he looked down at the kid. Harry fell asleep in Severus's arms. "Severus lets go up to my office and talk, you should take Harry with us, since it looks like he is not ready to move from your arms yet."
Dumbledore got up and headed out of the door, Severus did the same just a bit more slowly since he was carrying a kid in his arm, and he didn't want to wake the little brat/child.
