A/N: I wasn't a Snape sympathizer until some time ago.and even more now that I am done reading OOTP. I got this idea and I needed to empty my head, and after I finished OOTP I was even more convinced to do it. It may have a few spoilers of OOTP but only those who have read it will know what they are; they don't tell much of the story if you don't understand them. Anyway, hope you like it! ^_^
Chapter one: Arrival at platform 9¾
A young boy no older than 11 stood in front of the barrier between platforms 9 and 10. He was thin and wasn't either too tall or too short for his age. The thin face that was hidden by his cheek long, dark, greasy hair was pale and sallow, hinting that he spent most of his time indoors. He stared at the barrier considering if he should smash into it or not. On one side he would be away from his house, on the other he could be going to a place were he was sure not many people would like him. It should be told that this boy was not a normal boy, he was a wizard, and on his way to Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. He continued on this train of thought when someone tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around expecting to see someone ready to bug the hell out of him, but was surprised when he saw it was a girl his age. A very pretty girl in his opinion. She had bright green eyes and short wavy red hair. She smiled as he turned around.
"Excuse me; do you know how to get to platform 9¾?"
"How.how did you know I was going there?"
"I saw your trunk; it has a Hogwarts insignia on the side."
"Oh. It's right through that wall; all you have to do is walk straight at it."
"You sure?" she asked eyeing the wall, it seemed very solid to her.
"Yeah."
"Well, I'll try. See you in school...uh."
"Serverus. And you are?"
"Lily." With this she smiled once more and walked to the barrier, disappearing when she got to it.
Serverus watched as Lily crossed the barrier, a small smirk appearing in his mouth.
"Well what do you know? He does come out in sunlight!"
The smirk disappeared from his mouth. He turned around and was faced by two boys his age. They both had Black hair and dark eyes, only that one's hair was messy and he wore thin round glasses. This boy had his hands in front of him in the form of a cross. The other one, the one who had talked to Serverus, was smiling widely.
"Guess you could have left the stake back in your house James." He said trying to hold back his laughter.
"I don't know Sirius; he still looks like he can bite." With this, both boy's began to laugh out loud. When they finally got over their fit, Sirius put his arm around Serverus, walking the rest of the way to the barrier.
"Hey Snape, Have you ever heard of an invention called shampoo, it can really do miracles on that hair"
"Get of me Black!" said Snape pushing Sirius's arm of his shoulder.
"Oh my Snape, we haven't even gotten to school and you are already hostile toward us." said James with a smirk. With this both James and Sirius walked of and through the barrier, leaving Serverus behind. Snape sighted and dropped his head on the handle of the trolley on which he was pushing his trunk. He looked as his clothes, he was dressed like a muggle, and he could board another train and just leave from both his house and school all together. But then he remembered something he hadn't considered before, his older brother, Mordred. He would tell his father the instant Serverus didn't show up.
Mordred and Serverus had never had a good relationship with each other. Serverus had never had a good relationship with anyone in his family for that manner. His family was part of the death eaters a group formed by a wizard named Voldemort. Most of the people he knew called him "lord" but Serverus didn't, one of the reasons why he and his family didn't get along. The group had grown in power and members for some time now; they believed in cleaning the Wizarding world of unwanted persons, the muggle-born. Serverus did not believe in killing muggle-born wizards and witches, he considered it a monstrosity.
Finally Serverus decided to give Hogwarts a try, at least there were people who didn't know him there, which meant a chance to make some friends. Also he remembered Lily.
Serverus stepped through the barrier, landing in front of a big scarlet engine. He looked up the Hogwarts express thinking that maybe in school things would be different than home when suddenly someone pushed him to the side. He looked up and saw one of the last persons he wanted to see in his first day at Hogwarts, Mordred.
Mordred looked a lot like Serverus with some minor differences. His hair was short, he was tall and thin and was less pale than Serverus. Mordred ran to a small group of people. One was a guy about his age, with long blonde hair tied back in a ponytail, a smug look of superiority in his face. The other two were girls; one was blonde with a rather bitchy face, the other had short curly hair and had a face like she owned the place, and they were also the same age as Mordred.
"Looks like someone had a nice night." said the blonde girl, flipping her hair.
"Just what are you smoking Mordred? Seems nice." Said the other girl with a smirk.
"How can you think that our dear friend, Milady? You know he is not that type of guy" said the blonde guy before putting his arm on Mordred's shoulders" so tell me.what's her name? Was she good?"
"Better than all those things you guys have" said Lucius." Mordred motioned so they would all move together. Serverus walked closer so he could hear what his brother was going to say. He stopped a few inches away from them.
"When did you get it?"
"Just this morning Lucius, just before I aparated here."
"Nice, so you're one of us now?"
"Yep Milady.I'm officially a deatheater."
Serverus took a deep breath, something he shouldn't have done since it made his brother and his friends look at him. Mordred smiled and walked to him. He grabbed him tightly by the shoulders; Serverus could feel his fingers digging in his skin. Mordred crouched until he was looking at him face to face, his expression menacing.
"Mention one line of your ridiculous ideals and I swear I will make your life in school so miserable you will wish you had never been born." He told him in a low voice so noone could hear.
"I already do."
Mordred chuckled at his younger brother's remark. Pulling on Serverus by the shoulders he walked to were his friends were.
"I almost forgot to introduce him, guys this is my little brother, Serverus. Severus you know Lucius-"
"Yes we know each other"
"Narcissa."
"Hello." Said the blond girl looking at him from feet to head.
"And Milady."
"Hi" said the other girl.
"Hello." Said Serverus lowly. He didn't have time to talk anymore because the conductor called everyone to board. They instantly left, leaving Serverus to search for a seat by himself. He kept walking since every compartment was full. He finally arrived at the last compartment which was empty except for a boy about his age who was sleeping on one of seats, his head on the window. Serverus entered trying not to make a sound but unfortunately for him his trunk had other ideas, making sure to make as much noise as he tried to put it on the rack on top of his seat. He was sure he wouldn't be able to do it when suddenly he felt someone help him. Serverus opened his eyes (he had closed them when trying to lift his trunk) to find the once sleeping boy.
"Hi I'm Remus Lupin." He said stretching his hand at Serverus, after they had battled the trunk up the rack. The boy seemed nervous as worried that Serverus wouldn't like him.
"I'm Serverus Snape." He took his hand and shook it. Remus smiled.
"Snape? You're one of the biggest families out there right?"
"Not really, people just say that because we are all purebloods."
"Oh, I'm half and half, my father is a wizard and my mum is a muggle."
"Oh.my mum was half.?"
"Was?"
"She left us a few months ago, a bit before I got accepted in Hogwarts."
"Oh, sorry."
"You don't sleep much, do you?" said Serverus, hoping to drive the conversation away from his mum.
"You could say that."
None of them spoke much after that and Remus fell asleep after the lady with the trolley passed by. Serverus let his mind wander about what will happen when he was in Hogwarts, but his mind always came back to that young girl's smile.
After some time the train stopped, the conductor telling them all to get down. He heard a voice yell over the crowd "Fir's years! Fir's years over here! This way!". Serverus turned and saw a man about twice as tall than a normal man.
"C'mon, follow me- any more fir's years? Mind yer step now! Fir's years follow me!"
Serverus joined the bunch of kids following the man. He caught a small glimpse of Lily's face but he doubted she had noticed since she was chatting with another girl. He also saw that James and Sirius already had made friendship with Remus. Suddenly they stopped and several peoples "Ooooooh!'s" got Serverus attention. They were standing on the edge of a lake and across the lake laid the castle that was Hogwarts.
"No more'n four to a boat!" Yelled the man that had taken them there. Everyone instantly sat on the boats and when Serverus finally got to them he noticed there was only one left. He got in, noticing also that he was the only student left, which meant he went alone on the boat.
"Everyone in?" shouted the man" right then-Forward!"
Serverus slumped down were he was sitting. Being alone in the boat was not a good thing. "Maybe it will be better when I make some friends." He thought to himself. Little did he know that this new part of his life alone was just beginning.
