Comet Struck Lovers
- a story about finding your one, true...enemy?
Prologue:
Some kind of prophecy
"Sir...not to insult your intelligence, but...are you sure about this?"
"Why of course I am, Severus, it's the perfect plan."
The darkness was slowly devouring the pale purple sky outside the window, and except for the light the only thing falling into the room was the shadow of a tall, thin man. There was another man in the big round room, but he was sitting by a big desk, studying his right hand. It looked like someone set it on fire, it was black and the skin looked like coal.
"I don't know," the man by the window began, but was then cut off by the other man:
"I've made up my mind...it's the only chance we have got to make this all go away."
Severus turned around fast and now he almost looked angry.
"So you're going to jeopardize two young people's lives, what if Voldemort finds out!?"
"He won't. He will think that it all is going accordingly to his plan. Young Malfoy is quite up to the task, isn't he?"
"Well, yes, but--"
"This is the only way for us to remove him from his duty without scarring him for life," the old wizard continues, peering at the black haired poisons teacher. "You have already taken the Unbreakable Vow, haven't you?"
"Yes, but--"
"No buts. Severus, you are going to end up doing what Voldemort have been planning for Malfoy either way, this way he will be free from any feeling of guilt, and we might even be able to remove him completely from the dark side."
"But how will the girl help us with that!? Their families have been fighting for decades!"
"Young people have a tendency to revolt against their parents eventually, and if we pull a couple of strings we'll be able to prevent any damage waiting to crash down on the boy. She will be the perfect distraction."
"But I thought we already agreed that I was to look after Mr. Malfoy?"
"Yes, you are, but he might not listen to you, since you are an adult. And you know teenagers...always revolting."
Severus stared at the headmaster, then he sighed and looking out the window again.
"It's going to end in disaster," he murmured, "they are a text book example of star crossed lovers...it will never end well!"
"More like Comet crossed lovers," the headmaster said, laughing some at his own wittiness.
Severus seemed to give in.
"What do you want from me?"
"I want you to watch over the girl, the same way you will be watching over young Malfoy."
Severus nodded.
"What is her name?"
A/N: Yes, what is her name? hihih :D you will find out first thing in the first chapter! hope you like my story!
