Disclaimer: Don't own Harry Potter and I am not making any money off of this.

Sorry for the long wait, I've just got a lot going on in my life right now. Aryllia had offered to help me beta this fic but since I haven't heard back I decided to post part two anyway.

I was surprised that the first chapter got such a response I'm glad to see people are interested. I'll try not to take too long with each chapter but with two jobs, looking for a better one so I don't need two, getting the house in order to move, and finding the time and money to see "Seminar" starring Alan Rickman, I can't make any promises. Thanks for all your reviews I hope you'll still like it the further we get into the story. I was plotting out the time line and it looks like it's going to be longer than I thought. I almost broke this chapter up since it was getting a little long but I wanted to have both James and Severus in this chapter since it's starting to set up the main plot of them having to work together. And so on to chapter two.

Lies in the Light, truth in the Darkness

Lily Evens could tell something bad had happened even before she saw the steady streams of students running panicked in different directions. She had just gotten out of her Advanced Charms class when she felt a shiver run down her spine. She didn't know how to explain it but something had happened, something had changed, she just didn't know what.

She planned on getting something to eat for dinner in the Great Hall but then she started seeing a large number of students heading to and from the Transfiguration room. Her Gryffindor curiosity got the better of her. She could hear bits and pieces of rushed conversations as she got closer. She didn't know what had happened but one thing she did hear was the name…Snape.

Fearing her former best friend had done something awful she quickened her pace until she ran into a friendly face. "Marry? Marry what's going on? Why is everyone in a panic? Was…was it Se-Snape?"

Mary's face was pale and she looked visibly shaken. It was then Lily noticed that there were small flecks of red on her friend's white school shirt.

"My God, is that…blood?"

Mary apparently hadn't noticed the stain until Lily had pointed it out and if possible she became even paler. Putter her hand on Mary's shoulder Lily tried to calm her friend enough to find out what had happened.

"Mary, please calm down. I need to what happened, what did Snape do?" The question seemed to have woken the girl up from her shock.

"I-I wasn't there when it started but, Po-Potter and his friends were having a laugh when suddenly…" she trailed off just thinking about what she saw.

Lily shook her friend getting frustrated and scared. "Marry please, tell me what happened?"

Finally Mary took a deep breath and told her friend all about how Potter and his gang had confronted Snape. She then told her how the Slytherin had started acting very strangely when suddenly something stuck him in the neck. "There was so much blood." She said quietly. "I didn't see what hit him…there was so much blood."

Lily's face drain of color as Mary described the grisly scene. "Is…is he alright?"

"I…I don't know. The teachers came quickly and they took him away but…" but she clamed up again.

Lily knew she wasn't going to get much more out of Mary. The girl was still in shock. So she ran off towards the Transfiguration classroom hoping to find someone else who had seen what happened and could tell her if her former best friend was alright. As she turned the corner she spotted a large crowd gathered around a warded off area. She shoved her way to the front trying desperately to see what everyone was staring at. But as soon as got close enough the reason became clear. The floor and the walls were spattered with blood. Mary had been right when she said there was a lot of it. She covered her mouth trying not to scream. She wondered what had happened and if the friend she once knew was still alive.

By the time Lily had gotten back to the common room just about everyone else from her house was already there. There had been an announcement telling all the students to return to their house common rooms at once. It was just as well. The four she had been searching for would hopefully have been sent back by now. Sure enough she spotter James Potter and his gang huddled together whispering furiously to each other so engrossed in their own conversation that they didn't even notice the red head storming up to them.

"JAMES POTTER! WHAT THE BLOODY HELL DID YOU DO?" James jumped about a foot at the sound of Lily's demanding tone and quickly spun around.

"Evens, calm down. I don't know what you've heard-"

"I've heard about 15 different versions about the attack on Severus Snape, none of them totally agreeing on what happened outside of the Transfiguration room. The only things that they do agree on was that at the end he was bleeding to death and you were holding his wand covered in blood." her voice was starting to shake by the end of the rant and it was gaining the attention of the other student in the room.

Seeing the situation was growing a bit too public for his taste James beckoned the 6th year prefect to a secluded corner of the room. "I need to know what happened Potter, and I need the truth! No lies, no sugar coating and no accounts of your heroic exploits." Tears were starting to glisten in her eyes. "There was so much blood; I heard he had to be taken to the hospital. A few said the he was already-" but she couldn't go on. It was all she could do to stop from crying and the last thing she wanted was to cry on that toe rag's shoulder. Her near teary face stopped James from reminding her that Snape was no longer her friend or her concern. He had some tact, thank you very much. Plus it probably wasn't a good time to go around insulting the boy you were suspecting of trying to murder.

"Truthfully Evens, we don't know what happened."

"Oh, don't give me that, you were at the center of it."

"Yeah, and as you probably heard it happened in front of dozens of people and no one was sure about what they saw." Right now he was very glad he had gotten rid of his blood stained close before Lily and the other students starting pouring into the common room.

"Well, why don't you walk me through everything that happened step by step, starting when you and your crew met Snape in the hallway."

James looked at his friends and sighed. "Alright, I admit when we saw him coming out of Transfiguration with the other Slytherins looking distracted we weren't exactly planning on asking him to join us for tea."

"But we weren't planning on anything...bad." said Sirius nudging James to keep the revelation of their plans to a minimum.

"They were going to throw his wand into the Whomping Willow, turn his knickers pink and hang them from the goal post on the Quidditch pitch." squealed Wormtail before quickly ducking behind Remus.

"Peter!" shouted Sirius angrily.

The smallest boy pocked his head out nervously looking back and forth between Sirius and Lily. "S-sorry, but I'd rather get detention for a prank than go to Azkaban for murder."

"And what about getting expelled for destroying another wizards wand?" Remus shouted as quietly as he could.

Sirius gave him his best puppy dog face. "Oh come now, Remus. We weren't really going to destroy his wand." 'Make a fake copy, break it and send him the pieces maybe.' he thought to himself.

James kicked his fellow Marauder for essentially confessing that the other parts of the prank were planed. Sirius yelped but covered his mouth while glaring at James.

James looked back at his long term crush and was not surprised to see her hand was inching towards her wand. "Any way Evens, we didn't do anything except disarm him." he said quickly hoping distract her while making it sound like Snape was threatening them without actually lying. "Next thing we know, he starts grabbing his head screaming at us telling us to shut-up, even though we weren't saying anything. It was like he was hearing voices or something. As the crowd got bigger he had practically collapsed. Suddenly he stood up with this look of horror in his eyes and started to back away. Then without any warning something invisible attacked him ripping out his throat."

Lily cringed at the description but didn't interrupt as James continued. "It was chaos after that, people screaming and running in every direction. I guess it's not so strange that there were so many different versions of the story. But Snape said something really strange right after he was attacked. It was hard to make out but it sounded like "take it" any idea what it meant?"

Lily shook her head.

"No? Well, no one else was coming to help him I stepped in." Lily still didn't say anything but raised her eyebrow clearly skeptical. James held his hands up. "Hey, I may not like the guy, in fact, I hate his guts. But I'm not about to watch someone die right in front of me."

Lily looked thoughtful as if she was debating whether or not he was telling her the truth but there was one more thing she had to ask. "Did-Did he say anything else? Some people said he said something to you but they argued about what."

James nodded. "Yeah, as I was trying to keep him from bleeding out he grabbed my robes and said, "Look at me!" and looked right into my eyes."

Sirius shivered. "Not the best way to confess your Love to-Ouch!" Sirius said starting to joke but was kicked again this time by Remus. The other boy glared at him clearly telling him to keep his mouth shut. Sirius glared back but complied.

"It wasn't anything like that you idiot. But it was really strange. When he looked at me he seemed even more confused like he was staring at the wrong person or something." He kept the part about the quick vision that flashed before his eyes to himself. He wasn't sure why, he couldn't even remember what he saw. So it didn't seem like he was leaving out anything important.

"That's when McGonagall and the other teachers showed up. Admittedly it looked pretty bad seeing as I still had his wand and was covered in blood from trying to save him. We tried to explain what happen the problem is we don't really know happened." James said sounding frustrated. "We were question by McGonagall and the Headmaster. And while I don't think they thought we did it we still have to be questioned by the Aurors soon. They took our wands in the mean time and we're not allowed to leave the common room until further notice."

Lily sighed. No one seemed to know anything. All she really wanted to know was if Severus Snape was alright. For the moment it didn't matter that she had broken off their friendship, she didn't want him to die. She didn't want him to go down the path of darkness but she couldn't convince him to change. She felt even more helpless now then the day he said that word to her and ended their friendship.

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

It was dark, he couldn't see where he was going but he continued on. After what felt like an eternity Severus Snape thought he saw something in the distance, it looked like a light. Cautiously he approached the only thing he could see. It was a light, a beautiful light. A warm and inviting feeling was coming from it beckoning him closer. But suddenly he stopped, something was wrong, he thought as he took a step back.

"What's wrong Severus?" a female voice said from somewhere within the light. "It's alright, it's over. You can come home now." He thought the voice sound sounded familiar but he couldn't place it. But he stopped where he was, there was still a deep feeling of foreboding.

"Home? What do you mean? What home? Who are you?"

"Poor boy, you don't even know where home is do you?"

"Boy?" Severus snapped insulted. "I haven't been a boy for a very long time."

"No, I suppose you haven't." it said sadly. "But it's OK. It's alright now; you don't have to worry about anything else."

At the mention of worrying Severus turned around and looked back into the unseen darkness. There was still something there even though he couldn't see it. Something important, something he had left behind. The light was wonderful but he had to go back.

"Where are you going?" the voice called out as he started walking away.

"I left something behind I have to go get it."

"You don't have to worry about that anymore."

Severus stopped and glanced back. "How do you know what I've left?"

"You can't even remember what it was so what does it matter? Now, come along." The voice was sounding a lot less friendly and more and more impatient. He could see that even though he had been moving away from the light it seemed to be moving closer to him.

"No, I have to go back I'm the only one who-"

"I SAID COME HERE!" Severus spun around and saw to his horror that it wasn't a lovely white light…it was a large white snake. "YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!"

"Nagini!" he nearly screamed as she lunged toward him her jaws opening wide ready to bit him again. Aiming right at his neck she opened her massive jaws reveling rows of razor sharp teeth.

Severus duck barely missing her deadly teeth and took off in a run back into the darkness. He glanced over his shoulder and saw her stark white body shining brightly against the darkened landscape. He sped up, hoping his dark clothing might hide him from the Dark Lord's killer snake. He ran zigzagging left and right hoping to shake her off. He didn't know how long he had been running but the next time he looked over his shoulder he could no longer see the snake.

Far from feeling relieved he became even more frightened not knowing where his enemy was hiding. He slowed his pace incase Nagini has somehow circled around him but he didn't dare stop moving. There was still something he had to find and he had to find it fast, time was running out.

Finally he saw it. Two bright green orbs revealed themselves and Severus almost cried with relief. How could he have forgotten, even for a moment? Wasting no more time he raced toward them as fast as he could. But just as he was about to reach them the ground beneath him began to crumble away. He flung out his arms and surprisingly enough managed to grab hold of a piece of the darkness. It felt like the material from his teaching robes. He clung to it as the ground beneath him cracked and disintegrated into a glowing white pool.

"Wouldn't it be so much easier to just…let go." Nagaini's voice purred. "You're only making it harder on yourself, you know." He didn't look down. He didn't want to see her scaly head coming up from beneath him. Instead he focused on the two green lights floating right above him, unprotected. They were in danger but he just couldn't seem to reach them.

"You can't help them you know." Severus wished his hands were free so he could try to block out the snakes voice. "You've fail them, you're the reason they're here."

"Shut up!" he shouted back but inside his will was fading.

"Why don't you just rest? Sleep, sleep and you won't have to feel so much pain anymore." For a moment he almost agreed. He was so tired of fighting and never getting anything he wanted. Never able to keep anything that wasn't tainted or broken. Never able to protect what he cherished the most. Not even able to keep his promise. He felt his grip start to loosen.

"That's it, sleep." But as the voice spoke it turned from the childlike voice of Nagini to the soft hissing tone of his former master. "Sleep, just like your precious little MUDBLOOD!" And suddenly it was like an invisible force was trying to pull him down into the light. But at the sound of that dreadful word everything came back to him. The life he had lived and the life he was living now. And then he understood. They weren't gone yet there were just in the darkness like him. They haven't gone to the light and neither would he. He gripped the black fabric-like-darkness and with all his might and started pulling himself up, climbing towards the two green lights.

"Stop fighting Severus. You'll only bring more pain and misery no matter how much you think you want to help." While Severus Snape did have similar doubts he ignored them and kept climbing. "You are dark Severus, that's why you fear the light. You can't change your nature."

He was almost there but the fabric was starting to wear and rip as if it was rapidly aging right before his eyes. But he could not stop. Not now, he was so close. "What use are you to anyone? You betrayed your so-called "great love", you betrayed your master, you killed Dumbledore, the great symbol of the light, and you failed to keep your promise to keep "her" son safe. Everyone would be better off without you."

Severus was now hanging onto a handful of threads that were in danger of breaking at any moment. He was so close yet so far. He was within reach but couldn't reach them and the painful words weren't just accusations they were echoes of his own thoughts.

"Just let go, they'll be better off without you there." And then Severus looked down and saw Nagini's face hovering in the center of her coiled white body that spiraled forming a white vortex like shape. But her head had his eyes, those horrible glowing red eyes. "I promise."

And Severus Snape looked the beast directly in the eyes and said, "LIAR!" And with every last bit of strength he hosted himself up the last few inches and grabbed the two green orbs and held them protectively against himself.

"GIVE THEM TO ME! THEY ARE MINE!"

He couldn't run, the snake was already too close and he didn't have his wand on him to protect himself. So he did the only thing he could think of. He shielded the precious orbs with his own body knowing full well that the snake was going to tear him apart. But something unexpected happened.

The moment the snake touched him it shrieked and disintegrated into nothing leaving him once again in total darkness. Well, not total darkness. The two orbs were glowing even brighter now that the snake was gone. They were safe and for the moment so was he. Not out of danger but for now he knew it was finally ok to just rest. And with the orbs safely with him he finally did.

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

The Medi-wizard let out a huge sigh of relief. He didn't like coming that close to losing a patient. Fortunately it seems like the kid was a fighter and wanted very much to live. In his life he learned that all the magic in the world meant very little if the patient had little or no will left to live. "You must have something important left to." He whispered to the unconscious teenager.

"Alright, keep up with the blood replenishment potions and the basic anti-venoms. Is his teacher still here?" he called out, vanishing the blood from his robes.

"Yes, the one that found him as well as the headmaster." He stopped his hand cleansing spell when he heard what his nurse said.

"Professor Dumbledore's here?" The assistant nodded.

"Yes as well as that nutter of an Auror Alastor Moody." The medi-wizard frowned. At first he thought this was an accident but if Moody was called in-

"Grace, have our security team stationed at his door and call me the instant there's any problems. This kid's not out of the woods yet and I'd rather not find out that someone "helped" him."

"Yes sir."

Within minutes he was face to face with his former headmaster shaking his hand. "Professor Dumbledore sir, I'm healer Armstrong I trust you're here about Mr. Snape?"

"Quite right, how is he Mr. Armstrong? Professor McGonagall has informed me that it was quite…" he paused not wanting to sound too insensitive.

"I believe the word you're looking for is gruesome. He's stable for now but not out of danger. Does anyone know the type of snake that attacked him?" He was surprised by the look of surprise on his former teachers.

"Did you say snake?" asked professor McGonagall looking confused.

"Yes, it was definitely a snake that bit him and it's not a common one. There's something in its venom that hindering our efforts to stop the bleeding. Since it's a neck wound it makes it all the more dangerous. You didn't see the snake professor?"

McGonagall shook her head. "No, I'm afraid I didn't witness the attack. We assumed he was attacked by a fellow student. There were many other witnesses but no one mentioned a snake."

The Auror Moody kept looking around as if he expected something to jump out at him. "It could still be an attack Professor. There are some dark spells that could render a creature invisible."

"But those are highly advanced and not taught at the school."

"Maybe not in class but perhaps by-" but Moody was cut off by a light cough from Professor Dumbledore.

"May I suggest we hold our theories for now and focus on young Mr. Snape? Now Mr. Armstrong, are you sure it couldn't be anything else responsible for the attack. A spell perhaps?"

Healer Armstrong thought the group's reaction was a little strange and that maybe Dumbledore might know a bit more than he was saying. "I'm afraid not. The shape of the bite wound and the venom could only be that of a snake. Although I find it hard to believe no one saw it or that someone was able to turn it invisible. It had to be at least as big as a Burmese Python, maybe bigger. And an animal that moves that much would be very difficult to keep under an invisibility spell."

"I see." Dumbledore said frowning slightly.

"In any case, if anyone's seen the snake or knows something please owl me immediately. It would greatly help with his recovery. Right now he still needs to be watched until we can totally neutralize the venom in his system." He glanced around the waiting room. "Has anyone contacted his family?"

"His head of house Professor Slunghorn was left with that task. Although I am surprised that they have yet to arrive." commented Dumbledore glancing around as well. "If Horace is having trouble I'll see to it that his family is informed personally.

"I'm sorry to be leaving so soon but if we do in fact have a dangerous creature loose within the school we had better find it or make sure it is no longer a threat. Please do keep us informed on Mr. Snape's progress I'm sure his family will be he soon."

And with that the teachers and Auror left St. Mungo's preparing to search the school. Healer Armstrong instructed the guard guarding the boy's room to stay to stay alert.

James Potter wasn't sleeping well that night. All night he and his friends were accused and questioned by their fellow students and they were not looking forward to doing the same thing with the Aurors tomorrow. It was insanely frustrating trying to tell people that he didn't attack Snape and not be able to explain what did. Finally he fell into a fitful sleep and with sleep came a dark dream.

He was walking through the forbidden forest, the light of the full moon illuminating his path. Not far down the path he saw a beautiful sight. It was a patronus in the form of a shining silvery doe. Happily he fallowed lovely creature deeper into the forest. At one point she sped up and he was forced to run to keep up. Along the path his foot kicked up a small stone. Curiously he picked it up and saw it was a ring. He shoved it in his pocket and quickly ran off so as not to lose the doe.

She led him out of the forest and to his surprise he saw the Shrieking Shack. It was a little strange going in through the front door rather than the tunnel under the Whomping Willow but he went in eagerly to meet his friends for their monthly adventure. But then he opened the door to the living room he stopped dead in his tracks.

Dead on the floor were all his friends and the girl he had been pursuing for years. A large black dog lay by the door; his eyes opened staring back lifeless. There was a wolf at the other end of the room covered in blood. A rat, that was missing an arm, was lying just a few inches away from the fire place. And by the window was a red doe the looked just like the Silver patronus lay sprawled out on the floor dead, her almond shaped green eyes staring back at him.

James backed out of the room and ran from the shack in terror and disbelieve. But as soon as he had exited the house he saw the Quidditch field dilapidated and falling apart. He turned the other way only to see Hogwarts in flames. He ran to the flaming castle hoping to find someone alive who could tell him what was going on. But he found no one alive. The bodies of students and teachers and even some animals were all that he found. He even saw a dead unicorn dripping with silvery blood at the entrance to Dumbledore's office. 'The Headmaster', he thought. 'He'll know what's going on.' He thought to himself as he tried to gain access to his office. He tried every candy and sweet he could think of but the gargoyle did not budge. It was only after calling out "Professor Dumbledore" that he was let in.

But he felt no comfort going up the stairs; the walls were speckled with blood the whole way up. He hesitated when he got to the door; he thought he could hear a sound coming from within. It almost sounded like a baby crying. Finally he worked up the courage to go in but like everything else he had seen today it wasn't what he had expected.

Instead of seeing Professor Dumbledore there was a tall dark man with greasy black hair standing with his back to him. "You're late Potter." And then there was no longer any doubt as to who this man was.

"Snape, what's going on? What are you doing here?"

Slowly, Snape turned around and James gasped in shock seeing not a skinny teenage Snape but a fully grown man covered in blood bleeding from a gaping neck wound, just like he had seen earlier that day. And then he realized the crying noise had gotten louder. There was a bundle in Snape's arms and it looked like he was trying to hide it.

"What the bloody hell is going on and what the bloody hell is that thing?" Snape looked back at him with a look of deepest loathing on his face.

"It's yours Potter." He took the bundle out from his cloak and slowly unwrapped it. Within the bundle was a fawn with bright green eyes just like the dead doe he had seen back in the Shrieking shack. "You were late Potter and look what happened." He gestured to the fawn's head and it was then he saw a red lightning bolt scar on its forehead.

Suddenly there was a hissing sound and out from behind the headmaster's desk and a great white snake with glowing red eyes rose up. James saw Snape holding the fawn tighter not taking his eyes off the snake.

"Now Severus." came a voice from the wall of portraits. There sat Albus Dumbledore with his ever present twinkle in his eye smiling at Snape from within the frame. "We've talked about this my boy."

Snape looked back at Dumbledore's portrait with a sad expression. "But I promised."

The fawn was quiet now and was looking at the snake with its wide green eyes. "Yes, but I told Nagini she could come over for dinner and I'm out of lemon drops. We mustn't be rude now shall we?"

Dumbledore gestured to the fawn and reluctantly Snape set it down on the ground. James expected the fawn to make a run for it but instead it walked right up to the giant serpent. The two stared at each other for a long time and just when it seemed like the snake had changed its mind it swooped down and swallowed the little fawn in one gulp.

James gasped in shock as Snape turned away and the snake shriveled up on the floor and turned to dust. James Potter didn't know what was going on but as he backed away ready to make a run for it he tripped and fell on his back. The fall knocked the ring he had found out of his pocket. It cracked as it landing on the stone floor of Dumbledore's office. As it bounced on the floor a dark substance seemed to pour out of the broken gem.

"Ah, I see you found my ring Mr. Potter. But oh dear, it seems like we've made quite a big mess." The portrait said as the blackness continued to spill out flooding the room. "Severus, would you be so kind as to help Mr. Potter clean up?"

At this point James was trying to swim to keep himself from being consumed by the darkness, but Snape didn't move a finger to help him. James even tried to yell out "help" but it was too late, moments later there was nothing but darkness. He was a little surprised he could breath but he was more concerned by the fact that there was nothing visible anywhere around him.

"Hello!" James called out getting a little hysteric. "Is there anyone out there?"

"Look at me." James jumped at the sound of Snape's voice and spun around to see the adult Snape staring at him still dripping with blood. Without warning Snape appeared in front of him and grabbed him by his robes. "LOOK at me!" His face was rapidly flashing between the teen and adult Snape. He was still bleeding but slowly the red blood shifted to silver. James tried to pull away as the silvery blood started to drip onto him.

"Take it!" James couldn't seem to break free from his crazed rival. The slivery blood was getting all over him and seemed to just seep into him. And with it came the visions and the memories. The memories of a future full of death and destruction.

"look at me…" Snape forced James to look him in the eye. The cold black eyes told of a war yet to come. "Look at me." Black shifted to green reviling the pain of loss and the sacrifices that the war had cost.

"LOOK AT ME!" and then to red showing the unspeakable evil that was already raising and would grow to become the worst the world had ever seen.

Unable to take it any more James Potter let out a blood curtailing scream and jolted himself awake. He was still screaming until he realized he was back in his bed safe and sound and Snape was nowhere to be seen. He almost collapsed in his bed but was overcome with a sudden urge to check on his friends. He threw back his curtain and this time did collapse seeing them all there safe and sound. He was lucky he had asked Lily to cast a silencing charm around his bed so he and his friends could talk without being heard and she seemed too had forgotten to take it down. But the feeling of relief was short lived. He knew it was just a crazy dream but somehow it felt real. Too real.

He didn't sleep the rest of the night fearing he would see those haunting black eyes again if he closed his. And as James Potter shivered in fear in his dorm room, Severus Snape woke up.

To be continued…

Next time: The Green Eyed Monster

While James Potter tries to convince the Auros of his innocence, Severus Snape is getting a visit from a green eyed monster…that lived in a cupboard under the stairs.
