A Light Will Shine Tonight

The idea for this fanfic was originally Dumbledore asking Fairy Tail for help (cuz Dumbledore and his mysterious ways are cool). The idea of Snape and Lily came to me after I found that I didn't know how to get Dumbledore to Fiore by just his mysterious ways so I thought POTION which led me onto Snape being in Fairy Tail but I just wanted to ask you all if it is a good idea of not. Thank you

Anyway enjoy the latest chapter.

Chapter 2: Beginnings of a Journey

For Professor Severus Snape, Thursday couldn't come fast enough. For some reason he always felt like he had a better life over in Fairy Tail, and with him being a potions type mage it was always fun to play tricks on people and sit back as he allowed the same old fights to ensue.

He looked at the time. 6.00pm. That meant it would be around midday in Magnolia. He sighed and let out a small smirk. He couldn't wait to get back to the madhouse that was his home until that fateful day where himself and Lisanna disappeared. He wondered if she had returned. He had a feeling that she had, but then again his gut could always be wrong. Just like his feeling of impending doom when it came to the Dark Lords unknown plans.

"My dear Severus I must apologise for being late. I had to inform Professor McGonagall of my absence for the next few days." Dumbledore smiled an amused grin at the memory.

Snape sneered. "I suppose I shall find all my house's points gone by the time we return due to her hatred of my house."

Dumbledore lay a wrinkled hand on Snape's shoulder. "No my dear Severus she does not hate you or your house. It is simply inter-house competitiveness"

Snape sniffed at the answer, before turning away to the potion that would be taking them to Magnolia. "Professor take this. This will allow you to pass to city with the magic you possess." He handed him a small bottle with a neon blue liquid in.

Dumbledore smiled at him before drinking it. "Hmm. It has a fruity taste to it. I gather by your expression it is not usually this taste?"

Snape scowled. "If you don't mind Professor, I need to inform you of the next potion we are about to take."

Dumbledore gave a gesture for him to continue, before tying up his beard. "Please continue Severus."

The Potions Master turned back to the last two potion vials on his desk He sneered at the bright reddish colour of the potions before continuing to inform the Headmaster. "These potions, Professor, will allow us to enter Fiore for the duration that we are visiting. It will run out once the week is up and we will then be transported back to our world along with the mages. Hopefully."

He proceeded to hand the Headmaster the first vial, before turn back to drink his own.

"As much as this pains me to say, Professor Dumbledore if you would take my arm? It would not do us any good to get parted when you do not know your way around Fiore."

Dumbledore chuckled. "It would indeed not do us any good. But I suppose I could find a nice river and fish for a week."

Snape blanched. "Professor. Some rivers are mirages in Fiore due to dark magic, and any rivers and lakes that do exist can hold fish that taste to horrible to be eaten by any normal person."

Dumbledore's eyes crinkled. "Well it is good that I am not an ordinary person Severus."

Professor Snape began counting to ten. 'My God. He's like this worlds Master Makarov." He thought as he watched the Headmaster watch him in amusement.

"Now my dear Severus." Dumbledore clapped his hands. "I think it is time that we visited these childhood friends of yours."

Snape nodded and took the Headmaster's arm before closing his eyes, allowing his Fiore magic to engulf him, whisking them off to the far away kingdom that was Fiore.
