AN: Hello everybody, I would like to say that this is my first attempt at a Harry Potter fanfiction. When you role-play with those characters the idea of "what if?" comes to mind. Note; if I owned the series Severus Snape would be my lover and I would ultimately have defeated Voldemort by transfiguring him as a fluffy bunny. Sadly I don't and your stuck with my fic. Enjoy ^.^

Chapter 1: The Past is Bittersweet

It was a dark night at Hogwarts, as two small figures snuck through the corridors and out the entrance of the massive castle. The forms belonging to two students that were in their 2nd year of the school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as they dashed towards the thicket of trees that made up the forbidden forest. The boy who's skin was a pale white and sleek black hair that could match the color of the night sky. As the girl who's hair was as red as a ray of sunshine with emerald eyes that could enchanted and amaze. For them this was an adventure for friends as the school year was drawing to a close and this would be their last night to do something amazing together on school grounds. The girl gingerly dragging the boy inside the forest as they soon approached a pond. The boy blinking as he was soon dragged to the ground.

"Lily I don't think we should do this…..what is someone catches us out here?" The pale skin boy questioned as all he knew was that Lily had dragged him from his common room late from studying to show him something.

"Heheheheh Severus I wanted to share something that I found out from one of the professors. Supposedly there is a creature more pure than any other creature we are allowed to study." She said as she knew Severus was interested in anything magical be it a potion or a creature.

Severus blinked as he was about to speak before a flash of white flickered onto the surface of the water. The two of them looked up as they were graced by the figures of two pure white does, the creatures paying no mind to the children as they softly drank from the pond. Lily smiled as she held Severus's hand tightly as that made him blush.

"Severus let's stay best friends just like these two does, pure and trusting forever." Lily said as she looked to him smiling.

Severus still blushing as he nodded in, as they went back to watching the does before they had to leave. Returning to their respected houses the two could not sleep a wink after what they had witnessed in the forest. Severus returning home with Lily being close by, having time to study and such before the next year started.

But as years went by an event would change everything. As James Potter teased Severus with incantations and spells. Lily rushed to his aid to put a stop to this calling James a "arrogant toerag", Severus not thinking clearly calling his dearest friend the one word no one would stand for….."Mud blood". Lily storming off as Severus dashed after her realizing what he said as his mind was racing with the answer of why he had said it in the first place.

"Lily…..I'm sorry." Severus said as he was running sounding like he was losing air from trying to apologize while running. Lily turned around glaring at him as she was deeply offended.

"Severus, how dare you try to take back that word. As of now I wish nothing to do with you." Lily said as she turned back in a huff storming to her house.

Severus trembling as he was filled with rage and sadness, not towards her but towards himself. She didn't want him but he was damned if he was not going to fix it someway somehow. He dealt with this till he gave into the darkness of the dark arts. Which lead to him losing his Lily forever, something he regretted for the rest of his life. But our miserable potions master has a surprise coming to him soon, as no one is left to be miserable for long.

Severus coming back to the castle he once known as his learning center, only now he was a professor who now dreaded seeing one student. The boy who lived with those eyes that burned through his memories of good and bad. Severus sighed as he went to his quarters preparing himself for the next few months. It wasn't going to be worse than last year, where Harry Potter had to destroy the Sorceress Stone to prevent Lord Voldemort from regaining human form. This year would be different without any danger or rebellious acts of heroics. Severus smirked proudly as he told himself 'This year will be different'.

Several chambers away though two cloaked figures stood in front of the Mirror of Erised as a pale white figure was drawn to the glassy surface. The taller figure of the two reached towards the mirror pressing a gloved hand over the glass as they looked to the hunched over figure.

"Mother…..I feel that we would cause too much chaos by doing this." The taller figure said as the voice sounded majestic and clear as spring water.

"Go on dear, he has suffered so much from a man we dare not speak of. This is not chaotic evil my child, rather it is chaotic good. Go on dear and prove the promise the young man made years ago would stay true." The hunched figure spoke as her voice was creaky but kind.

The taller figure nodded as she slowly looked up into the mirror. A flash of two green orbs could be seen as the hunched figure spat out an incantation fusing the taller figure with the mirror's ghostly host. The taller figure trembled as she opened her eyes as they were emeralds instead of their bleak black orbs. As so the chaos begins for the potions master later to be discovered that night.
