Severus Snape gazed deep in to the mirror's depths.

Hermione's deep brown eyes looked back at him from the dark recesses of the mirror.

She had loved him she had trusted him and she had been taken from him by that vile creature, master.

Severus sneered at the mirror. She would be free, it would cost him his life but she would be free. To raise their child.

Severus Snape threw up his hood and walked slowly from the mirror.

He stopped only once to look back into brown eyes he would never see again.

She would be free.
