A Day In The Life Of a Young Severus Snape

rated MA for mature adults

Ch.1

"Another day..." thought young Severus Snape as he awoke. It was a chilly March morning in then Slitherin common room. He had to go eat breakfast. Then it hit him. It was his birthday. That made going to see other people, all the worse because he knew that his fellow students would not remember. He was not even so sure his family knew that it was. When he was back at home or Hogwarts ( it never mattered where they were) they never gave any sign of it.

Down in the Great Hall he sat alone. While he was reluctently shoving food down his throat when James Potter come up from behind and for no good reason pours hot pumpkin juice all over Severus and his cloak. Without thinking Severus jumped up from his seat and exclaimed, "Sectum Sempra," with his wand pointed at James Potter. Immediately without warning, gashes appeared all over James' body with bright red blood pouring all over him. Snape had surprised himself. He had made the spell up and I really worked. He would call himself the half blood prince and write these things down in his book. Just so that he could remember them. It was safer to be looking a book and " taking notes" than writing " a note" to somebody. If they ever caught him writing a book, his professors would surely read it and realize what the terrible spells did. And more importantly, that the spells were dark magic.

Dumbledore stood up amazed at what he just saw and he ushered Severus Snape into his office. He ushered him into the office on the day of his birth.
