~*~*~*~Prologue~*~*~*~
I Won't Leave You Lonely
Albus Dumbledore sat on a wall, eating Lemon Drops. Sitting beside him was a very annoyed looking Minerva McGonagall. "Albus, you can't leave him here. These people are the biggest muggles I have ever seen." Albus turned to look at her.
"Lemon Drop?" he asked. She looked disgusted, so he took it as a no. "Where as would he go Minerva?" He has no other realatives, and his Godfather, well, you know." Minerva nodded sadly. "Besides, he needs to grow up somewhere where he won't be surrounded by fame and all that."
Before Minerva could reply, a loud rumble was heard, and both Profesor's looked up. The largest motorbike either of them had ever seen landed in front of them, an even larger man sitting on top of it, holding a little bundle.
He jumped down, and walked over to Albus and Minerva. "Do you have him?" Albus asked. "Hagrid nodded.
"Why are we 'ere Albus? Lily 'n James 'as no rel'tives but the Dursley's..." he said. "No, this is the Dursley's, isn't it?" he asked suspiciously.
Dumbledore nodded. "Albus, we cannot leave him here. Lets bring him to Hogwarts and do something else. I once overheard Lily telling Severus that she hated her brother-in-law and sister. They didn't even go to the wedding." Minerva said, starting up once again.
Albus sighed, and looked towards the ordinary muggle home, and then thought of Hogwarts. "Oh, all right, I guess that will do. You are right, they are very muggle." Minerva and Hagrid both smiled. "Hagrid, you take Harry to Hogwarts, Minerva and I will Apparate."
Hagrid nodded, jumped back onto the black Motorbike, and lifted into the air. "I sure hope this is what we should do, Minerva." Albus said, before he apparated. Minerva looked back at 4 privet drive, and nodded, deciding it would be best for Harry to be with his own kind, and with a pop, she was gone.
20 minutes later, the entire Hogwarts staff was sitting in the Staff Room, looking at baby Harry. Everyone but Severus, that is. Albus picked Harry up, and started speaking. "What are we going to do with him?"
Sara Sprout, the plump little Herbology teacher stood up. "I think one of us should keep him. We can't put him in an orphanage." Their were murmurs of agreement amongst the professors. Albus held a hand up, and the room quieted.
"Who though?"
Severus Snape, the youngest and newest addition to Hogwarts, and Angela McNair stood up. Both said "I will." At the same time. The entire staff stared at Severus, his determined expression didn't waver. Angela looked at Severus as though he were mental, and faced Albus.
"Angus and I would be delighted to adopt little Harry." She said, "You can't even consider Severus, he is too... cold." Most of the Professor's seemed to agree with her, and were all voicing their agreement, but were silenced by Severus' glare.
Albus bit his lip, thinking hard. "Angela," he said, and she started smiling. Severus frowned. "I don't want you to. I think Severus should." Angela sat down, disappointed, and the other professor's stared at Albus. Lydia Krim, the current Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher pointed at her left wrist meaningfully. Albus gave her a look which told her to be silent, and stood up.
"Severus, come with me." Severus got up, and left the room, amid the whispers of his colleagues. Once they got into the hallway, he closed the door. "Why is it that you want to take care of Harry."
Severus put his hands in his sleeves. "Because, Albus, Lily was like my sister. I did not like James, but I feel like I owe it to Lily. Beside, if it wasn't for James not trusting me, I would be his Godfather, not Black." He snarled the last bit, and Albus looked slightly sad.
"Well, Severus, you can care for him. If you find that you can't care for him, then I will have Angela and Angus McNair." Severus shook his head.
"I can do it, and I will. But, Albus, when do I tell him about his parents?" Albus looked him in the eye.
"When the time comes Severus, you will know." And with those final words, he placed Harry in Severus' arms, and walked away. Sighing, Severus looked down at the baby in his arms, and smiled sadly. "I won't leave you lonely," he whispered, and walked down the corridor to the dungeons.
A/N Sorry that was so short!! This is only the Prologue, so expect longer chapters after this. Jeez,I think this is the shortest chapter either of us have ever written. Well, the Chapter Title 'I Won't Leave You Lonely' is a Shania Twain song, and the Title of the fic is a Slaughter song (It was chosen by Sharte, she loves the 80's Glam Rock/ Heavy Metal groups, so expect some more chapter titles from songs you have most likely never heard *grin*) Well, please Review. Even if you don't like it, we are going to continue, though we will try to make it more interesting.
