A/N: ok, my second Harry Potter story. I hope you like it!! Oh, this is just a short chapter, the prologue. Don't worry, my other chapters will be longer!
Coldness filled my entire body, flowing through my veins like water. I could feel goose bumps rising up on my skin and my hair raising on end. I could feel every individual stitch of the cloth beneath me. The air about me smelled of strong disinfectant potions. I could tell, even behind closed eyes, that the walls were white. 'I must be in some sort of hospital…', but I didn't have enough time to think as pain shot through my body, burning like liquid fire.
My hair felt as if it was being ripped out, my body felt as if it was either being squeezed or about to explode. I opened my mouth to scream, but it felt as if liquid fire had shot into my mouth and was burning me alive. I opened my eyes, but they quickly closed in pain. They felt as if they were freezing and shattering a million times. Finally, after what felt like days, the pain stopped. I slowly opened my eyes before they widened in shock.
Sitting on his knees on the edge of the cot I was on was Severus Snape. His black hair was a curtain around his face as he looked down at me with pure concern and fear on his face. Not only was this the closest the man has ever gotten to me, but it was also the first time I had ever seen any emotion on his face.
"Her-Miss Granger," he began, "how are you feeling?" he looked at me in concern, the fear slowly disappearing, being replaced by relief. It was then that I realized he was holding my hand. I almost blushed, but I did not feel that this was the right time. As I was getting ready to answer, I was interrupted.
"Hermione! What happened?!" the youngest male Weasley -Ron- exclaimed. I was confused until I caught a reflection of myself in a mirror on the bedside table. Seeing what I looked like, I passed out.
A/N: ok, so how did you like it? I don't know how to continue this story, so it may be a couple of days until I update. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed my story!!
