Anaconda:
Memories that should be kept Secret
The next morning Harry waited for a free period so he had time to ask about who this Ms. Peverell-Snape was.
"Professor, may I have a moment" Harry asked as politely as possible to McGonagal.
"Yes Mr Potter. What seems to be the matter?"
"Well. You know about the marauder's map correct?" after a stiff nod from her he continued. "Well I saw a person in Hogwarts that I was curious about.........Her name was Lady Annalise Peverell-Snape."
McGonagal went pale. It was as if he had just said Voldemort's name infront of Ron again.
"How......wh-.......I.........Potter. That is NOT something you should ask in such a public place. You never know who might be listening." She scolded. "Perhaps we should talk to Professor Snape. For the story does involve your parents quite a bit."
Harry sat there in her office with a confused look on his face. First of all they were alone, second why did we need to talk to Snape. He was just curious.
"How do you know her Professor?"
"She was one of my students. A Slytherin and a good person at that" Minerva seemed to be on the edge of tears which confused Harry deeply. "Come along Potter. "
The two walked to the dimly lit dungeons where they found themsleves outside Professor Snape's Private Chambers as he was not in his classroom. Harry pulled out the Marauder's Map and opened it. There right next to him was Ms. Peverell-Snape. But next to her, facing her was a small dot that was shifting from one foot to another labeled Lily Potter.
"Professor?!" Harry managed to get out but it was too late. She had knocked and Snape was already at the doorway sneering as usual.
"I see that you have a question about a certain someone in Hogwarts Mr. Potter."
"Yes sir."
"Well let's go see the Headmaster if it's so important." Snape said stoicly but without his usual sneer. "Minerva will you accompany us?"
With a stiff nod of her head McGonagal followed suit. Harry had taken a glance back to see if anyone was where they had just been standing. No one was there but he felt like he could sense strong power there. They had walked a long distance. Normally it would have been 10 minutes from the dungeons. But it seemed they were taking the long way. When the trio reached the stone Gargoyle, Professor Snape said the password, "licorice wands" and entered where they found the headmaster sitting at his desk with no other than a licorice wand in his mouth.
"Typical" Severus thought with disgust.
"Is there something wrong?"
"what do you think?" The potionsmaster sneered as he always does.
"I believe that Mr. Potter has stumbled upon a very mysterious name that has a long story to it." Dumbledore said happily. Too happily for what he new was to come.
Severus and Minerva exchanged curious looks, while Dumbledore asked Harry if he had ever heard of the girl before. Harry had clearly never heard of her which was good. Yet the name of this mystery woman was yet to be revealed as Dumbledore retrieved a basin with a bluish glow to it and uncorked an old looking bottle that looked as if it was never meant to be opened again. After adding the memories he motioned for the three to step forward.
"Harry I am only showing you this because it may possibly help with the war against Voldemort but also that it has a lot to do with your parents and your ancestors. " Dumbledore said while looking as if he aged a couple of years in just seconds. "You need to be very mature about this Harry. And I believe that you can handle t-...."
Snape had cut across Dumbledore "Might I ask Ablus but who are we going to see memories from?"
"We are going to see memories from, and she almost has as many names as me, Lady Annalise Phoenix Peverell-Snape, your was to be wife." Severus looked at him with Horror and shock as he dumped the remaing of the memories. And with an after thought as Minerva was in tears now, he added "Also known as Anaconda".
'No Dumbledore!!!" Snape shouted but Dumbledore had already motioned for Harry to enter.
Haha cliffhanger. lol. Please review. Thx to those who have. Sorry I know I said I would have it up Sunday but ohh well its early Thursday Sunday what's the difference. Also My shift key is not working well (typical) so there will most likely be errors. Ohh and Sexual themes will start to appear around chapter 3 or 4. And sorry but I have big Exams in a week and a half so just warning nothing will be up for a week or so after the 15th.
