AN: So this is my first fan fiction every. I have been reading a lot of it and came up with some new ideas. I know there are a lot of guardian Snape story's already out there, but I hope to give mine a new touch. I would love if someone would review my story even if you hate it, cause I can still learn from it. I know this chapter is like many else, but I have got some different ideas for the next chapters! Also I am Dutch and do my very best to write everything in perfect English, but can only do my very best.
Reluctantly Snape left his office, the holidays were almost over which meant that someone had to check up on the Potter boy. When Harry was delivered to the Dursley they (consisting Albus and Minerva) had decided to check on Harry every year and every fifth year of Harry's life they would do a big check up , so they could see if the wards were still intact as well to see if the boy had any questions that the Dursleys could not answer. Since Minevera went last time, and Albus was busy Snape had to go. He apparated to Little Whinings and looked for the house. It wasn't hard to find, cause he had been here already three times for a small check up. He walked to the front door and knocked on the door. Boy open the door, was the shouting of a man he heard coming from the inside.
When the door was opened he could see a little boy , probably around the age of 8. A bit confused by who the door was opened he asked to see Mr. Potter. That's me, the boy answered. Snape felt himself become angry and answered rudely :No time for jokes boy, you are not even his age, now I will let myself in if you are doing nothing anyway. Before the boy could even try to close the door Snape was already inside. He walked into the living room where he saw the rest of the family. They looked stunned for a second at the intruder of their house, but Mr. Dursley quickly recovered. What are you doing here in my house, Mr Dursley asked angry. I am coming to check up on Mr. Potter he calmly replied.
Well get the boy and go and discuss whatever you want to discuss with him in the hallway so we can hear the television. Dudley already didn't pay any attention anymore to Snape, but had his eyes back on the television.
"Where is Mr. Potter if I may ask?"
"Boy! Come here!" Mr. Dursley shouted.
Soon the boy who had opened the door came in.
"There take him."
Snape was stunned that it was the boy who had opened the door, but years of spying had taught him not to show it.
"Aha, I am sorry Mr. Potter, I misjudged you. Well come with me to the hallway."
Once they were in the hallway Snape decided that he wanted a little more privacy and asked for Harry's room. He saw a glance of panic arise on Harry's face and heard some muttering.
"Mr. Potter if you would please speak clearly so I can understand you."
"You are standing in front of my door Sir", Harry said.
Snape turned around and saw he stood in front of a door that led to a cupboard or something.
"Surely this isn't your room?" Snape asked a bit shocked.
"Sorry sir", was Harry's only reply.
At that moment Snape spotted something he hadn't seen when he first saw the boy, he saw some bruises on the top of Harry's arm. He wanted to grab the boy's sleeve to lift it a bit up when the boy flung away. He suddenly put all the pieces together. What had happen to Snape years ago had happen even more severe to Harry. Not even thinking about it a second time he decided to take the boy with him to Hogwarts and ask Albus what to do, cause if he left the boy a minute longer he was surely going to be abused again. In a soft voice Snape started to tell Harry what they were going to do.
"Alright Harry, we are going to apparate to Professor Dumbledore's office and explain the situation."
Snape could see the questions in Harry's eyes, but when he didn't ask anything Snape went on.
"Take all your things with you, because you are not coming back here and wait in the hall way while I am going to talk to your Aunt and Uncle". Snape left the scared child in the hallway and went to the Dursleys and casted a privacy spell over the door.
"Now leave my house if you are done with the boy", Mr Dursley half shouted.
Snape could feel the anger rise, but knew he had to control it, and come back later. He couldn't leave a scared child in the hall.
"I am taking Harry with me and you don't have to expect him back, you clearly didn't understand what raising a child means."
"We gave him food, clothes, sent him to school, he is only a burden while we give him everything he needs", Mr. Dursley replied angrily.
"I will see you later Dursleys" and so Snape walked back to the hallway. He half expected Mr. or Mrs. Dursley to follow him, but they remained sitting on the couch. Harry was standing with a plastic bag in his hand, looking around scared.
"We are going Mr. Potter". Snape walked to the door but Harry remained standing where he stood.
When Snape turned around he saw that Harry hadn't moved.
"What is it Mr. Potter?", Snape asked impatiently.
I" am not sure that my aunt and uncle think it's okay if I leave the house sir, " Harry replied.
"Mr. Potter, you don't have to worry about that, I have already spoken to them and they agreed with me."
Harry slowly followed Snape and they walked outside. "Now take my arm and we will apparate to Hogwarts". Harry took Snape his arm and they arrived outside of the wards of Hogwarts. Harry fell on the floor and started vomiting. This wasn't unusual for kids who did side along apparition, and Snape waited for when Harry would stop. However when Harry stopped vomiting, he collapsed to the ground and went unconscious.
Reviews would be highly appreciated!
