DISCLAIMER: I OWN NO HP CHARACTERS!
A/N: Alright this is the first chapta of my new story, first off as you read in the summary, If you haven't read the Snape of Gryffindor...go read it! This story starts off with a girl named Jane, but if you don't figure out who she is by the end of this chapter I should smack you upside the head. But since I can't do that I will leave you with a little hint, remember the couple who found Anna? There names were Smith, so lets see if you can figure it out.

CHAPTER 1: Dreams
A man with sandy hair stood in a middle of a field facing a young woman dressed in a cloak holding what seemed to be a wooden stick. The man seemed out of breath as the brown haired girl dropped to one knee.
" I think that's all the practice we have time for." He said in a thick british accent, catching his breath. The teenage girl nodded and put the wooden stick into her cloak. The middle aged man grabbed her by the shoulders and lifted her up as she leaned on him for support.
" You did well today." He said walking her to a bench, as he took out a vile filled with a steaming blue substance.
" I sucked." The girl replied as she drank the vile in one big gulp. Only a few seconds after she drank the liquid a peaceful look settled across her face.
" Maybe not that bad." She said relaxing a bit, the man chuckled. Then looked at her with admiration as a sad, small smile graced his weathered face.
" Your mum would have been very proud of you." He whispered, the girl instantly tensed and swung her bag over her shoulders.
" I think I should be going to bed now," She said coldly as she headed for an oak door that seemed to appear out of nowhere, " goodnight Mr. Lu-"
Jane awoke in a cold sweat, with her covers tangled around her body. She pulled off the covers and swung her legs around to the side of her bed as she checked the her digital clock. 2:48 am it read, Jane sighed and made her way to the bathroom, she was used to these restless nights.
Jane turned on the shower as she neatly removed her clothes and let the warm water wash over her body. She lathered her dark brown, now black hair with shampoo. The warm water helped sooth her cuts and aches, she obeserved her body, the cuts weren't as bad as before but they did leave awful scars.
After her shower Jane got into bed and watched a little television, it was the summer and she didn't have to wory about getting up for school. Although that luxury would only last for a couple more months. She sighed and leaned her head back against her pillow not paying attention to the fitness program.
" Who was that man, he seemed so familiar." She thought, Jane searched her mind but nothing was there to remember.
She gave up trying to figure it out, she was having more and more dreams like this. First this man who didn't seem to wash his hair, a bushy brown haired girl and a boy with flaming red hair with crystal blue eyes. Now this man, she would carry on the day, the dreams slowly fading until another sleepless night would come bring them back into her thoughts.
Except for one, it was a young man about her age. He had black hair and nice body from what she could see, but she never saw his face. Yet she felt as though she knew him and wanted to take him in her arms and kiss him sensless. Yet she didn't even know him, Jane sighed and flipped the channel, she would just have to wait until Mrs. Smith woke up.
The hours passed as the sun rose and greeted the earth, Jane heard a bedroom door shut and heavy footsteps coming down the stairs. Jane put on her robe over her pajamas and crept into the kitchen to see Mrs. Smith at the stove cooking away.
"Good Morning Laura." Jane anounced sitting at the table. The forty-nine year old woman jumped a little and then let out a small chuckled.
" I didn't see you there deary." She said with mixed british-irish accent, as she went on greasing the pan preparing to make bacon. Soon enough the heavenly smell danced its way across Jane's nose as she made her way towards the stove.
" Didn't mean to scare you." Jane said looking at the smiling woman.
" Oh it's alright deary. My little Emma used to do it all the time when I was cookin' or a cleanin'." She said with a bright smile. Jane knew she missed Emma, the poor girl died in a car accident coming home from a friend's house, she was only twelve.
" You must miss her alot." Jane said helping her set the table.
" Oh, I know she's in a better place." She said with a sweet smile, " plus I'm only missing her as some old grandma is missing you!" She said giving Jane's nose a little tap. Jane smiled, this woman always had this view of life that never ceased to amazed her.
" Besides, I have a fun day planned for us!" She announced making her and Jane a plate.
Jane took her plate with a smile, " and what do I owe this special day?" She asked.
"Well you can't go back to school with old summer clothes now can you?" A deep voice asked from the kitchen entrance.
" HAROLD JOSEPH SMITH!" Exlaimed Laura, " you ruined it." She said taking his plate away, and turning back to the sink.
" Oh you still love me." Harold joked giving her a kiss on the cheeck as he snuck his plate back form her hands. He chuckled and made his way back to his seat. Jane laughed, these two acted more like teenagers than an old married couple.
" As I was saying," Laura continued, " you and I are going to look around for anything you would like to where for the new school year!" She said sitting down to her breakfeast. Jane thanked her and then the three were left to eat thier breakfast in peace.
After Jane washed the dishes and got ready the two females headed for the car. They live about twenty minutes away from the crowded city and stopped at a nice little resturant for some tea. They then spent the next hour and a half trying on clothes and doing what girls do best, eating!
They decided to only find a few more stores and get back to the house as Laura was becoming fatigued. Laura became out of breath as Jane led her to the nearest bench. As Jane went down the street to find somewhere to get water, she spotted this old shabby little resturant with a brown sign with a witch stirring a couldren. ' THE LEAKY COULDREN' it read.
It seemed to pop out at Jane as the other people just seemed to past by it without a second glance. 'Maybe they have water.' Jane thought as she went into the pub. Jane entered the pub to see men and women dressed in the strangest clothing she's ever seen. Yet it made her feel right at home, she made her way through the tables and up to the bartender.
" Excuse me sir, can I get a water, my friend is a little fatigued." Jane asked politley.
" Name's Tom," The man said turning around, " sure you can have some-" Although he instantly stopped as he got a full profile of Jane.
" Anna Snape?" He whispered, the pub instantly silenced as all eyes were on her.
