-In this fic I will be using italics to indicate either a mind being read (I will state this), a nightmare, or parcel tongue (Ss…sS).

-I will be switching between the twins pov. Like say Ron bumps willow in her pov if I immediately switch to her sisters pov this essentially means that whatever Viper is doing is in the same instance that her sister is being pushed in (if not in the same instance I will let you know)

-I only own the characters I made (I'll leave it up to you guys to figure it out…I'll give you a hint they aren't in any of the books or movies. ;D) The rest belong to J.K. *btw I'm not doing this every chapter so just because it's only on chapter 1 does not mean it becomes false in chapter 2*

This is my first fic so...please be nice guys.*bows*

It's for the best…..I think.

In a dark, dilapidated manor sat one of the most fearsome wizards of the age. Serpentine eyes flick contemptuously over his inner circle as they bow, cowering before him. "So we are gathered here again…" He pauses to stare down a lone dark man. "Tell me Ssseverus, what information have you managed to retrieve from the old fool."

He comes forward, bowed low and kisses the hem of his masters' robe. "He is growing careless my lord, our lack of activity this month has lulled him into a false sense of security." The terrifying visage of his master twists in a sick parody of a smile.

"Is that so Severusss?" He asks, eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Then why, pray-tell, do I have several units of my henchmen been acquired during what should have been a simple raid operation?"

"Those fools were not smart enough to keep their heads down. They drew attention to themselves and thus were captured my lord." His calm statement belayed by the moisture on his brow.

His master appeared to be mulling over something as he lazily twirled his wand between his spindly fingers. "Never the less anything less than success is unacceptable…..CRUCIO!"

He started awake to the sounds of his own screams. He got out of bed and pulled on a night robe. Severus quietly walked to the drawing room adjacent to his own, picked up his latest copy of Potioneers Weekly situated on the table and settled chair for some late-night reading, knowing that he would not get anymore sleep tonight.

...

The next morning saw the dire looking potions master standing before the headmaster at an early time than he was used to. "Lovely Morning isn't it? Lemon Drop?"

"You know I have no affinity for those infernal sweets headmaster why do you insist on offering me one every time I am here?" He grumbled off handedly.

This was routine for the old wizard who obviously took no offence from the younger mans heat. "My dear boy, I keep offering in the hopes that you might one day accept." There he was sitting back in his chair with that damned twinkle.

He took the seat before the Head Masters desk. "Well I assure you that won't be happening anytime soon." He stated dropping a stack of parchment on the desk between them.

"Ah I see that you have finished this coming years schedules and quite on time might I add. We have two late applications that will also require you to make two more schedules." He informed while looking through the potions masters work.

"And why are we permitting late applications when the last day is long past and term starts in two days?" He objected

"These two have two very strong references…..and I am also told that they are a very special case. They will be coming here from Egypt" He replied tenting his fingers at his chest. "I would like you to keep an eye on them Severus, just until they manage to settle in."

"Hmph….I have better things to be doing with my already precious time...but it shall be as you wish headmaster." He scowled rising from his seat. He was out of the fast enough to miss the headmasters' comment of"This will be a very interesting year indeed."
