Melanie ran through the forest, she didn't know where to go but those robed men were chasing her as she held her son to her.
It had begun innocently enough; they had gone to England because her husband wanted too, they had left Tucker with his aunt's place and because Chuck wanted to take Andrew to see their supposed ancestral lands, they had taken Tucker when he was born so now it was Andrew's turn but it had gone downhill from there.
Now these black robed men had killed her husband and are now chasing her, she clutched Andrew to her as he was crying loudly despite her best efforts to keep him quiet when a green light struck her, the jeering man looked at the crying baby, aimed his wand and was about to cast a spell when a green light hit him.
Andrew cried and the man, a hook nosed man, looked at him. Severus picked Andrew up and frowned, 'Hellmouth energy? This is troubling,' he thought, he gestured and they appeared in his childhood home.
Severus looked at the crying boy in front of him and thought, 'This boy was from that Hellmouth in America,' he grew worried; the Dark Lord disappeared a night ago so he was free for now, the Potter's brat was declared "The Boy Who Lived" by Albus Dumbledore and was put with supposedly "loving" relatives.
'But you,' Severus thought, 'Who do you have now?' It was partly due to his actions that the boy was now an orphan as he had found out that one of his companions was stupid enough to go Muggle hunting but he got there too slowly.
The boy cried and Severus frowned, 'Lily would've taken you in without hesitation, she would've raised you with love so in her memory I shall do the same thing.'
He picked up the boy and saw a name tag on his shirt, which had a muggle design on them and the name Andrew on it.
'The name is acceptable,' Severus thought, 'But, hmm, the Hellmouth energies are still swirling around him and he will have to control the energy,' but first he decided to cast a spell, he waved his wand and barely avoided Andrew's hands grabbing it.
'Hmm,' Severus thought, 'There's a magical core in him, it's atypical of children his age but the Hellmouth energies were trying to bind it."
"First," Severus said, "Let's remove the taint of the energy."
A gesture removed the pollution of the Hellmouth energies until they were neutral and he began to work over Andrew's body as he bound the Hellmouth energy into his magical core.
After the spell Severus frowned and said, "I'll take you in as my son but," he frowned, "This place is no place to raise a child."
They teleported to the Prince family home and two house elves appeared and Severus said, "I am moving in, you two will bring my belongings."
"Oh, we are Bitsy and Winkum master," the lead house elf said, "And is good that master is coming home and claiming title of Prince."
"This is my adoptive son," Severus said, "He will be a Prince too and this is what shall be in his name: Andrew Severus Prince for reasons I cannot go into, I cannot claim the name of Prince but Andrew shall be Lord Prince if he so wishes it."
Andrew looked at the elves and reached out to them, the elves nodded and Bitsy lifted Andrew up and carried him to the nursery.
He supposed he didn't know why he claimed the boy but he had done it, the boy was to be the new Lord Prince.
Severus looked at the remaining house elves and said, "He is not to be known to the outside world, he is to be raised without the wizarding world knowing."

Who would you like Andrew to be paired with in the slash pairing? What kind of father should Severus be? What house should Andrew be sorted into?
